May 13th 1999
》Michael《
I knew Susan was preparing a surprise for Mia, but I didn't know what it was.
All I knew was that if Mia was happy, they would need my help for the second part of the plan... But I didn't expect that.
》Mia《
Susan walked up to me
- Mia, are we going for a walk?
- Ok
We went for a walk around Neverland
- Mia... I've been thinking about this for over a year now... And I have to ask you, even though I know it's not legal...
- We are Smooth Criminals - zażartowałam
Susan knelt before me
- Will you marry me? I know it's not legal, but will you marry me?
- Yes... - I kissed her lips
We went to my dad... He was drinking juice in the kitchen
- Dad, we have something to tell you... - I started
》Michael《
- I see you're happy... What happened?
- We got engaged
I choked
- Congratulations... but... Is it legal?
- It is not.
- Eh.... Okay, my little criminals.... So what do we do?
- I don't know...
- I think I have a plan, but... it's equally illegal...
- What's the plan? - zapytała Susan
- I'll get you fake documents. If you have the paperwork that you are a guy, then you should be successful with the wedding.
- I'm all for it - Susan stated
I took Susan with me and got her these fake papers
***
When we got back, Mia was gone. Alishia was sitting in the living room
- Mia went upstairs. She asked me to tell Susan to come to her
Susan went upstairs and we were left alone because Abi had lessons with a private teacher
- Your daughter has grown up... - Alishia stated
- See... Too bad Isabella can't see it...
- Michael, it's been 18 years. Please...
- I can't stop... A part of me died with her...
- But you saved me... Without you, this tumor would have killed me...
- Do you want to have something else in your belly?
- What, for example?
- A baby...
- I make you realize that we are not alone at home.
- Then come on...
I took her to one of the guest houses in my area
- Here we will be alone... - I stated
- I know...
We didn't have time to start and the boss called us because yes, we were both still agents and detectives
***
We entered the office building.
- Listen... Do you remember the case from about 10 years ago? Is it a mother and daughter kidnapping?
- Ivone and Olivia. Yes. I remember... - I stated
- Me too... You saved me right after that... - dodała Alishia
- Anyway... Olivia ran away from home... I give you this case because she will rather trust you.
- After 10 years, would she remember who saved her?
- Rather, it is remembered when Michael Jackson saves you.
- Well... What do we know about it?
- The last time they saw her was yesterday morning, this morning her clothes, she and the food from the fridge were gone.
- Do we know where she might be?
- No.
- I know.
I pulled Alish with me and ran to the car.
- Michael, where are you going?
- Do you remember where we found her?
- Yes.
- Exactly. Right there.
- Why would she go there?
- Only we and her father know where it is. We're famous, and we're the ones who found her. She didn't run away from home, she wants us to find her
- How do you know?
- I used to run away from home to Ross sometimes...
- We'll get there soon
- I know.
I stopped the car 16 feet from the building. We crept under the building and quietly entered it...
Olivia stood against the wall with her hands tied above her head and tied to the pipes on the ceiling, in tears...
We set her free. I pulled off my jacket and helped Olivia put it on...
As we were leaving the building, he entered... her stepfather.
He drew his gun...
I shoved Alishia and Olivia into the nearest room...
He shot me a couple of times...
Ok, I had a bulletproof vest, but I preferred to pretend I was dead...
I fell to the ground playing dead
He didn't give a damn about it. He walked over me and into the room where I shoved Alishia and Olivia
- Now you're both mine... - he said in a rather ominous voice
- Not yours. Alishia is mine. - I had no qualms about shooting him in the head - Are you okay?
- You're alive?
- No, not at all... Yes, I'm alive. After all, I have a vest... Are you okay?
- I am... Olivia?
- It's ok... Thank you...
- Come to the car....
We took her to the car and called an ambulance and the police...
- Thanks again... He kept me there and...
- Olivia? Did he molest you?
- Yes... - she burst into tears
- Can I hug you? - I preferred to ask because I didn't know if Olivia wasn't traumatized
- Yes
I hugged her myself
- It's going to be fine... You're in no danger anymore...
When the emergency services arrived, they pronounced Olivia's stepfather dead and took her to an ambulance
- I won't go without one of them. - Olivia said
- We'll follow the ambulance. - I've declared
***
When we arrived at the hospital, Olivia's mother was not there yet... we walked into Olivia's room
- Olivia, did you run away from the house yourself? - I asked
- No... My stepdad talked about how he had a surprise for my mom and that I had to help him... He told me to pack some things and... He took me there... He tied me up and raped me... left there for the night.... Then you found me... Thank you...
- Don't thank us. We both work as crime detectives...
- Yes, but you saved me the second time
- You're my daughter's age... that situation when your biological father kidnapped you made me realize that the same thing could happen to Mia...
- Do you keep in touch with Isabella's family?
- No.
- And Mia?
- Mia doesn't even know that Isabella's parents are alive.
- So where has she been for over 2 months?
- She wanted to become independent. I'm sorry, but I promised her I wouldn't tell anyone
- Can I meet her?
- I don't mind, but I'll talk to her.
- Do you think she'd like me?
- Yes, but I don't want to speak for her.
- Thank you for killing him
- Listen, we're here on business... you have to tell me... Has he molested you before?
- There were times when he went into the bathroom while I was taking a shower...
I heard the door open
- God, baby girl! - Ivonne ran up to Olive and hugged her - I was so scared...
- Mam... he... - Olive began - He raped me
- Who, darling?
- Stepfather
Ivonne looked at me
- Where is he? I'm going to kill him!
- I've already done that. - I replied - You don't have to bother, ma'am.
- I don't know how to thank you, sir... Once again, you are saving us...
- It's our job... I have a daughter of the same age. I understand you, ma'am.
- Why was I blind to his behavior? - she asked
- I understand that this may be difficult, but we also need to interrogate you ma'am.
- Okay...
I went with Ivonne to my office and Alish's, where I auditioned her
- Can we switch to you? It is terribly strange for me to call you 'sir' when you have saved my daughter for the second time
- No problem. I don't hate it when someone talks to me like that... Since you got involved with Davis, have you noticed anything that would indicate his interest in Olive?
- Then no... But now that I think about it... Olive told me about nightmares where someone touched her, said dirty things... But I never thought it could be him... To me, he was so affectionate and caring...
- Something else?
- Olive complained that my husband would come into the bathroom while she was washing up because we wouldn't let her close the door...
- Why didn't you let her?
- It's an old apartment, left over from my grandmother. We didn't lock the bathroom because it often got stuck... - she explained - Olive had been asking us to replace the lock for several years... I thought she was exaggerating about Him coming into her bathroom... God, how stupid I was - she burst into tears
- I know it...
- How?
- After Mia was born, I had several lovers... one of them wanted to kill Mia... if I'd walked into the room a minute later, Mia would have been dead...
- How am I going to cope now?
- I think I know how... - I took my business card out of my desk (as a criminal detective) - call me when Olive gets out of the hospital, but literally at the moment when she gets discharged from the hospital.
- You guys are wonderful... yes thank you...
- No problem - I replied - It's quite a symbolic thing for us... In the case of your kidnapping, we met - I grabbed Alish's hand
- How to help Olive?
- I have an idea for that too. I'll see you as soon as Olive gets out of the hospital...
- Thank you...
