I remember what happened and I bet so do most of your readers. Why not just continue where you left off? You could always go back later on if you ever get the motivation.
Author's Response:
Sigh... I don't know. Wouldn't you guys rather read a new story? I've got some OUT OF THE BOX ideas in my head.

LOL. I veto your "especially" as we've been advising for months (as I also did a year ago in my Tips) to always save your chapters in another file. Unfortunately, we have no power over Amy or her decision to not fulfill her end of the transfer.
Author's Response:
Oh, it's totally my fault and I know that but either way it's still hard now to continue... like all my motivation is gone for that story.

Aww...Prince is walking! These kids are growing up so fast. Now, Michael is doing good, but WHY does he insist on always bringing cameras along and dressing her for supposed family outings that really do turn out to be publicity shots? I may not agree with Nina on everything, but I understand her on THIS. It would get on my nerves too!
However, I am glad the kids enjoyed Disney. Now, if only MJ's family would try to be a little more friendly to Nina, despite what has happened. I mean, it's clear that she isn't going anywhere really, regardless if they divorced and break up again. She'll always be the mother of their nephew and nieces.
Yay, I'm glad Nina has Jisella and Marissa on the trip! That's what she needs-a girl's night out. Oh, Maddox lost a tooth? Lol. Now, you know MJ going to put a big bill under that boys pillow. Lol.
And...here Mj goes using Hideki again, who's getting tired of his shit. He's going to learn to stop treating that man like this. Sigh...
Thanks!:) *Waves hello*
Author's Response:
Hello!!
Yes!! The kiddos are growing up so quickly! And I think Nina is starting to realize that even though she doesn't get to see much of the other side of Michael's world, she knows that that's just kind of how it works. He has to do things that will make him look good and boost his image, it's just all part of his job. Michael just needs to realize that he doesn't have to lie to 'protect' her he can just be honest.
Hideki is about to get MJ in BIG trouble.

I've been sitting with the window open, trying to think of what to write. Michael would be in the permanent dog house if I was in Nina's position and he did that stuff. First the move for the press/photogs, then not even directly approaching Nina, but instead going behind her back? Shoot, I'm surprised Nina didn't try to preempt this (his pattern isn't new), and sit down and say "I'm an open book. Ask me anything."
These two need to get their acts together. Oh, and I need my favorite vampire story to be updated (Yeah, I'm greedy)
Author's Response:
So greedy!!! Especially since that story is missing it's last chapter and I did not save it so I have no idea what's supposed to happen next.... Lol maybe I'll reVAMP the whole story into something else.
michael will indeed spend a very long time in a doghouse soon.

Michael thinks he's slick.
He could, I don't know, just ASK HER about her conversation with Marcus. And Nina should be more eager to confide in Michael rather than opt to avoid uncomfortable topics.
Communication fail. Again.
And what is up with Hideki turning into Michael's little slave? I thought he was Team Nina.
Author's Response:
Right! He's making another mess.
They both avoided this uncomfortable topic. They're so busy trying NOT to piss each other off and stay happy that they've forgotten what really needed to be fixed in the first place was communication.
Hideki knows Michael would fire him if he didn't do what he asked of him. And where's he going to work after being fired by Michael Jackson? He's kind of stuck... but he IS team Nina and we're about to find that out next chapter.

Where's the trust ? Why spy ? I mean she told you about the conversation, plotting on him won't make him look good in Maddox or Nina's eyes , when is this meeting between the three going to happen so all this madness can stop honestly
Author's Response:
He should have just manned up and asked her to tell him exactly what all was said instead of avoiding the topic and pretending it didn't happen. The meeting will happen soon.

Come on Michael stay strong. Stay strong for the fam man!!!
Nina is stubborn as shit. Why she never listens is beyond me. I don't know why she can't get through her head the Marcus she had before jail is not the one out now. Gawd I would be doing the same thing Michael is doing wringing my hands and what not to stay calm.
Marcus wants his family back? Does he expect Just Nina and Maddox and for her to leave her other three children behind? Or he's going to take on Michael's three children?Which will never happen. At this point I don't feel sorry for him. His regret is not about the vile shit he did. He just regrets being hounded for it. He deserves every minute of that torture.
10 UGHs!!!
More soon!!! <333
Author's Response:
He did it! He stayed strong!
Nina is stubborn and still hanging on to that guy she used to know before prison and jealousy corrupted him. And RIGHT what does he think is going to happen now that she has kids with Michael. Like is she gonna just hand over custody of them to Michael and then disappear with him and Maddox forgetting about the others? That's not going to happen either!
Nobody feels sorry for Marcus lol
Thanks!!! <3<3

Stay strong Michael! I'm glad Marcus is starting to feel some regret, but if he keeps pushing forward on this, he has to see it will only get worse for him. At this point, there is nothing he can gain by continuing to rail on Michael. Shit, Michael could hook him up with a job, his access to his own son could be increased, and he'd at least get Nina in his life. You know that saying about having to hit bottom before really turning one's life around? I don't know what his bottom is. As to suicide, unless there are significant factors we don't know about, Marcus is unlikely to chose that option.
You definitely showed some growth in Nina this chapter by having her set limits with Marcus and tell Michael. Next step would be to discuss it with him first....but old habits die hard.
Thank you for another update! I feel like I'm being spoiled (and I need to be spoiled right now....hint hint).
Author's Response:
Yep karma is coming to Marcus just like it should. But yeah had he been reasonable from the start Michael could have helped him alot, he'd still be in their lives, etc. And that is so true about a lot of people having to hit rock bottom before they can rise.
Yes! Nina's growing! but right she's going to work on having to talk to Michael first. She's gotta lose a little bit more of that independent woman attitude. She's not in this alone.
More spoiling on the way.
Date: Sep 06, 2016 11:04 am Title: Plea Fallen on Deaf Ears
Sigh...these two are getting on my nerves! They're about to give me an E-ulcer. Lol.
Nina NEVER learns. Her mother wanrs her, she still goes ahead, Jisella warns her and she still goes ahead. All she did was pour gasoline on an already simmering flame.
You cannot negotiate with a terrorist (Marcus) nor can you make an irrational person be rationale. The guy is full of jealousy and hatred. It is essentially, a cock fight. It has nothing to do with Maddox, as he likes to claim-it's all about Nina and his lack of control.
You can't make someone want you. I mean, what did he think all of his actions would do? Make Nina want him? In fact, one would think the results would be the opposite.
I always wonder, why he always blames MJ for Nina leaving him, as if Michael kidnapped her or held her against her will...Nina has her own mind and choices. She CHOSE MJ over him. Period. Yet, he blames MJ and NOT her. Where is the logic in that? Nina's no seduced dove needing saving. She makes her own decisions, just like she did when she was with HIM.
Also, I'm glad she told MJ, but this situation could have been avoided. Thank goodness MJ didn't resort to the bottle, like he would have in the past, though he wanted to. I'm proud of him. Yeah, he' upset, but he handled it better.
Thanks! :)
Author's Response:
LOL!
No, she doesn't. She didn't listen to NO ONE. Right, she cannot negotiate with Marcus. He IS a terrorist. And he does think that Michael has won her over with his fame and that she's living in some fantasy right now that isn't real. But it IS real, she has moved on, and he should have taken it better and then perhaps he could have benefited from this too.
Thank YOU <3 <3

Marcus can go choke on a dick. He wouldn't be in the situation he is if he didn't open his mouth to the media in the first place. And how can he be mad when his baby momma moves on to a better man because his criminal ass is locked up for dealing drugs? t's completely his own doing, I have no sympathy and neither should Nina at this point. Let Michael sue his ass and publicly humiliate him. At this point it's a write off and Maddox would be better off not hearing this BS Marcus is saying than having Marcus in his life in any way shape or form.
Michael and Nina both handled that better than they would have in the past, especially Michael. There is still room for improvement but I'm glad to see some growth.
Author's Response:
LMAO. Exactly, he put himself in this situation, he can't blame Michael. The way he sees it, he risked his freedom to provide for his family and this is how they've repaid him. Maddox would have been better off if Marcus had just accepted the fact that Nina had moved on and been respectful and civil in the situation then and only THEN could have have been allowed to play a role in his life.
Nina and Michael have grown up and matured! But yeah there is still more room for a bit more maturity.
Date: Sep 06, 2016 04:40 am Title: Plea Fallen on Deaf Ears
Damn they just need some stern mediation , all this phone calls are not going to help they need to all three sit down and talk and damn that's what Marcus get but that whole suicide part that Michael said was very mean , and we'll when your down and out with no job what are you suppose to do? , smh don't let him fall back into drinking and at customers was right nina would be doing that same shit he is
Author's Response:
That was very mean of Michael. I don't think if he had thought twice about it, he would have let that slip out of his mouth. Michael and Marcus both need to get over their egos and have a honest man to man.
