Author's note :

The following event will be diffrent in fiction than in real life

———————

A few months later, June 27 1999,

Michael landed in Germany the day before, after his concert in South Korea for the Michael and friend's benefit concerts

Tracee stayed in New York, she figured it won't be a good idea to fly half across the planet twice in one week while she's six, nearly seven month's pregnant with Melody's sibling

Gail, Ethan and Romeo stayed in New York too, to help Tracee with Melody and make sure she doesn't do too much work, not that she could do too much anyway, her babybump prevented her from doing too much and she was tired a lot too, being pregnant and taking care of an almost one year old wasn't easy

The phone vibrating woke Tracee up from her nap

"Yes?" She yawned while accepting the call, not checking the callers ID

"Hey honey, it's me, I miss you guys" Michael mentioned

"I miss you too, the bed is so lonely without you and I think Melody prefers you over me as well, it took me fifteen minutes to calm her down, it takes you only two" Tracee replied

"I will be on my way home as soon as this concert is over tonight" Michael promised

"I whish I was there honey, I never missed a show since we met" Tracee sighed

"I know honey, I can't wait to hold you in my arms again either" Michael replied

June 28 1999 8 AM, Manhatten, New York

Tracee woke up on the couch where she fell asleep last night

"You could've woken me up earlier, so I could make your Dada a welcome home breakfast" She mumbled while gently rubbing her nearly seven month old baby bump

"Sis I tried calling you but you didn't pick up, I just saw the news, are you ok? Shit that's a stupid question, of course you're not" Gail rambled while she stormed in and hugged her sister "I'll be on the next flight to Munich for you" She added

"Wait, slow down" Tracee began "Why wouldn't I be ok and why would you go to Munich?" She asked and frowned at her sister

"Oh shit, you don't know what happened" Gail gasped

"What happened to who?" Tracee frowned

"Michael, last night in Munich there was a" Gail began and took a deep breath to calm down her emotions "The stage thing collapsed and-" She sniffed "The last thing they said was he's at the hospital now and" She continued "They flew in a specialist from Berlin too" She sniffed

"What?!" Tracee gasped "No, Michael is on his way home now, he'll land any minute now I guess" She added

"No" Gail told her "Call his number, the security will pick up and confirm what I just told you" She added

"If this is your sense of humor you've a sick humor" Tracee scoffed "But fine, I'll call my husband so you can see he's almost home" She added and made her way to the bedroom where she left her phone earlier "Sixteen missed calls" She frowned, most of them from the head of security, two from Gail, four missed calls from Katherine and two from her parents "No!" She cried and dropped her phone

"Who did you call?" Gail asked

"No one yet, but all this missed calls" Tracee sniffed "Could you please hand me the phone" She asked
