The rain was starting to fall as Y/N hurriedly made her way to the studio, where she knew Michael would be. They had recently ended a two-year relationship because life was just taking them different places.

But Y/N had found out some news that would change both their lives.

By now the rain was beating against the roof of the car, doing nothing to ease her nerves. She parked and quickly got out. Running the the building she saw as a woman was locking the front door.

"Excuse me!" She called out.

"Yes?" The woman answered.

"Is Michael here?"

"No... he left."

Y/N's heart was beating out of her chest. She spoke nervously again,"When will he be back?"

"He won't," after that the lady said something else that Y/N didn't catch. She zoned out. The woman left, leaving her there alone.

She felt weak in the knees. She felt helpless as tears filled her eyes.

~18 years later~

"Angel!" Her mother called. "Breakfast is ready!"

The girl got up from bed and walked downstairs. Her mother had set a plate filled with delicious food. She was gonna miss it once she left for college. "Thank you, Mom."

Today was the day she would be leaving to find her father. She didn't tell Y/N because she knew it was a sensitive topic for her, but she would be happy for her to meet her father. Y/N had desperately tried to meet with him on multiple occasions, but something always got in the way.

Her father was Michael Jackson, and he didn't know he had a daughter. When her parents ended their relationship, they knew they wouldn't be in contact and accepted that. But then Y/N found out she was pregnant. By then it was too late.

Y/N didn't try to keep the truth hidden from her. However, it wasn't until she was fifteen that she truly understood the situation. It was Y/N's dream for Michael to acknowledge Angel as his daughter. Eventually, she had to give up that dream.

Now, it was Angel's turn.

She hugged her mom before she left for her long journey.

Angel waited nervously in her seat. The concert was almost starting. The crowd around her was so loud, people everywhere screaming and crying. And it hadn't even started yet! These were the emotions that Michael created. Her dad. It felt so weird saying that knowing that he was so close.

The introduction to the concert began playing and a few tears filled her eyes. She wasn't indifferent to the emotions either. A few minutes later she saw him in his iconic suit. That's when the tears she had been holding finally fell. She cried silently as she finally caught a glimpse of his face.

She dried her tears and managed to enjoy the concert. It was amazing to see him, her father, on stage. Then she felt extremely nervous. How was she going to tell him? What if he thought she was absolutely crazy? Would she be able to live with herself?

The concert ended up being a mix of emotions. Between happy and sad, nervous and exited.

She quickly made her way backstage where other fans got to meet their idol. She would meet her father. Other fans brought their posters, their albums, a picture for him to sign, a camera maybe. She only brought herself. Others were probably happy as the line got shorter. She was starting to dread it.

She watched as the person in front of her went to meet Michael. Michael gave her a hug and then they talked for a while. In the end, they took a picture before they left.

Now it was her turn. She cursed lightly to herself and made her way to Michael who was smiling.

"Hi, what's your name?" Michael asked standing up.

"Angel L/N," she said slowly. Something flashed in his eyes, but it was gone in a second.

"Nice to meet you, Angel," he said, going for a hug.

"I'm your daughter," she blurted out suddenly. She had a whole speech prepared, but the tension made her say things she couldn't help.

Michael's eyes widened slightly and he stepped back. "What did you say?"

Angel cleared her throat and stood up straight. "I'm your daughter."

"Who's your Mom?"

She bit her lip nervously before speaking again. "Y/N L/N."
