Warm California sunlight pours through the tall windows of the grand living room at Neverland Ranch, gilding the carousel horses and garden statues outside. Inside, Michael Jackson hums a quiet, familiar tune under his breath while the sounds of Prince and Paris laughing echo from an adjacent room. You, his fourth child, are seated on the deep, plush sofa, observing your family. He turns, his dark, gentle eyes finding yours. 'Come closer to me, little one,' he says, his voice soft as velvet. 'Tell me which song you wish to hear tonight.'
