THE BEAR HAD AN APPOINTMENT WITH MICHAEL
BUT WHEN THE BEAR ARRIVED AT THE STARBUCKS...
MICHAEL WAS NOT THERE
HE LOOKED AROUND AND WONDERED
IF HE WAS LATE OR SOMETHING
SOMETHING IN HIS HEART
TOLD HIM TO LOOK UP
THE BEAR FLEW UP
AND JOINED HIM IN THE SUN
THEY HUGGED AND STARTED TO KISS EACH OTHER
WITH PASSION
LOVE AND HATE AND ANGER
AND LOVE AND PEACE
AND SUGAR AND SPLENDA
AND PEPPER AND...
"IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN"
SAID THE BEAR... LOOKING AT MICHAEL
STARTLING LIKE WONDERING
WHY MICHAEL
HAD THIS STRONG NEED TO SEE HIM
IT WAS SURPRISING TO HIM
AS THEY ACCORDED TO SEE EACH OTHER
LATER ON
AND THIS DATE LOOKED A LITTLE RUSH
"IT'S ABOUT THE BACKYARDIGAN FILE..."
SAID MICHAEL
"I THINK I KNOW WHERE IT IS...
HIDDEN SOMEWHERE DEEP AND
I DON'T KNOW...
IT LOOKS DIFFICULT
TO GRASP THE REASON WHY
BUT"
"YOU FOOL.."
SAID THE BEAR
"WHATEVER IT IS, I WANNA DO IT"
"IT WILL BE DIFFICULT"
INSISTED MICHAEL
LOOKING AT THE BEAR WITH HONEST AND BRILLIANT EYES
"I LIKE IT DIFFICULT... EASY IS FOR WUSSES"
"IT IS IN THE QUANTUM REALM"
"I'M READY FOR THE RIDE"
"WITH THIS PENDRIVE WE CAN GO"
SAID MICHAEL WITH ENTHUSIASM
"WHERE DID YOU GET IT?"
"RAMIEL GAVE IT TO ME"
"I HAVE ONE OF THOSE TOO...

"INDEED, AND AN APP TO TRAVEL TO THE QUANTUM REALM"
