Watching the rain falls on Saturday morning Michael dialed a familiar phone number.

Beep...Beep...Beep..-

"Hello, MF what's up" the familiar voice that he hasn't heard in weeks sounded out.

"nothing, i just want to know if you are home or not i want to visit" Michael leaned against the glass making his face that was facing the dark room was hidden in the shadow.

"oh don't worry i am home since it was raining also my mom was asking why didn't you visit after a long times, you used to visit us a few times in a week" the gentle voice nagged but to Michael it was the worry he heard but it seems his confession didn't affect their friendship.

Michael opened and closed his mouth a few times wanting to ask if his confession was that unimportant that she already forgot about it but in the end, he decided to not ask.

"what's wrong?" she asked .

"nothing i was just about to visit you to talk about something face to face and if i don't do it i would felt like a bastard" Michael answered while closing his eyes.

"kay, bye see you soon"

"bye"

Beep...Beep... the phone call has ended but Michael stood just like that with the phone in his hand, in the exact position as he closed his eyes.

Opening his eyes Michael trod out toward the rain without worry as he already discussed with Aria last night after they had sex, also the rain couldn't touch Michael's body as there was an invisible tentacle warped around him, as he was already in Liquid state he could make the tentacle physical but it was very weak that a punch from an average teenager could break it.

Michael walked alone in the rain looking incredibly lonely but in the fact, his heart was filled with love as he knows he has Aria, Melinda even Lydia somewhat counted as he visited every day and played with Lydia along with the other children but he is definitely not a pedophile, alright!

Michael then reached Jessica's house and knocked on the door. After a while, the door was opened and Michael was suddenly hugged but if he didn't let it how could she hug him.

"well...well you became more muscular didn't you Michael, do you want to become a wrestler, Michael?" Jessica's mom made a body builder pose and Michael just smiled.

This is Jessica's mom she had the same gentle and beautiful appearance as Jessica but she was energic, active and a little...wild but she was kind just like Jessica.

" come in! you are visiting Jessica right, you would never visit an old and worn woman like me right" Jessica's mom pulled Michael in before she complained and put her head on her hand.

Just as she was about to call Jessica down, Michael spoke while pulling on her arm." that's not true ma'am."

Michael kissed Jessica's mom on her cheek "you are still beautiful and young" Michael continued his earlier compliment before running off to the second floor.


In the first floor, Jessica's mom was stunned and when she recovered her face was red, she shouted: "you little rascal!!"

As the voice was heard through the house even in rain, Jessica went out from her room only to see Michael fleeing toward her room.

Opening her room she let Michael in before locking the door "so what did you do this time?"

" i was teasing her, so i want to talk about something but before hand could call Mario first," Michael said as soon as he entered the room.

Jessica's room was just like he remembered it was a girly room with dolls, teddy bear, his photos together with Jessica. It was all the same except a framed photo of Mario and Jessica placed on her study table.

Jessica doubtfully called her boyfriend Mario and Michael waited with a smile on his face, just as the phone connected Michael snatched her phone and whispered swiftly."Mario, i was about to invite Jessica to double date and if she agrees you must agree"

"alright it sounds interesting besides i never been in a double date" Mario answered.

Michael then give back the phone at the frantic Jessica. After she talked with Mario Jessica turned to Michael with an angry face.

"slow down... i was just talking to him normally" Michael pushed his hand toward Jessica.

"i know that but why do you have to snatch my phone" Jessica placed her hand on her waist.

Then Michael laid down on her bed "Jessica i am about to travel overseas next week and three weeks from, now i will be back and will you with Mario go on a double date with me and Aria."

Jessica was just about to get angry but she stopped "alright and i knew it you are dating her!" Jessica pointed at Michael.

Michael then stood up and walked toward Jessica "can i hug you, Jessica?" She was about to refuse as she thinks it was a prank but seeing the face that Michael made right now she agreed.

"it's okay"

Michael wordlessly hugged Jessica, he hugged tight with his hand on her waist and placed his head on her shoulder, leaning slightly as he was taller than her.

"i like you Jessica" Michael softly said.

"i know" Jessica genteelly said as she hugged back.

"am i not good enough?" Michael asks as he begins to cry.

"you are good enough," Jessica said as she closed her eyes.

Michael sobbed a little as the sadness on the graduation party was felt "then why, why do you choose him if i am good enough for you!." Michael shouted a little as he hugged Jessica tighter.

"because i don't want to lose my best friend and also i don't know about your fellings back then" Jessica patted Michael's back as she answered.

Michael sobbed, the Michael who was different from who he was at the graduation part, he is the Michael who had murdered someone, he who faced death face to face but survived because of his power, he sobbed.

"beside you have Aria right now, don't you" Jessica still closing her eyes while patting his back.

Michael then let go of Jessica who had opened her eyes, Michael who had his eyes red and eyelids a little swollen smiled it was an ugly smile with tears on his face but in a second that smile changed to his normal one because the tears vanished, his eyes returned to normal and he spoke " I don't regret it, even if i could turn back time and changed the past i will still love you and confessed to you"

Jessica was stunned because of the change of Michael's face. "then this is my love's goodbye for you" Michael pecked Jessica on her lips for a second.

"don't worry it won't count since it wasn't even considered a kiss" Michael winked at Jessica and ran out from her room before she noticed it but as he opened the door, he saw Jessica's mom was eavesdropping there and he sends a wink to her before escaping down the stair.

"MI!!!...CHA!!!...EL!!!...LI!!!" a huge voice was heard from Jessica's house and thankfully her father was not home, he is working right now.
