The months passed and soon it was almost time for Michael to leave on the Bad tour. Tatiana smiled devilishly because she knew that it was almost time to put her plan into action. But until then, she would pretend to be supportive of Michael's relationship with Breanna.

One jour after rehearsal,Tatiana accidentally overheard a conversation between Frank and Quincy. When she heard them mention Michael's name, she decided to listen plus closely.

"The Bad tour dates are set.",Frank announced proudly.

"That's great", a dit Quincy. "So when are toi going to tell Smelly the good news?"

"Well, actually I have good, bad, and worse news.",Frank a dit hesistantly.

Quincy furrowed his eyebrows. "What are toi talking about?", he demanded.

Frank sighed and took out a Cuban cigar out of his drawer. He put it in his mouth, lit it, and exhaled a puff of smoke. He sighed again.

"The good news is that we are going to make a lot of money on this tour.", he a dit with a smile.

"And the bad and worse news is?"

"The bad news is that the Kid is going to be gone for 2 yrs and the worse news is that toi get to tell him that."

"What?!", cried Quincy.

"Good luck because I have a feeling that toi are going to need it.", a dit Frank.

When she heard Frank tell Quincy that the Bad tour was going to be for 2 yrs, Tatiana wanted to turn cartwheels all over the studio. Now she knew that she would have a chance with Michael. She also knew that he would be lonely and she planned to be there to comfort him. There was no way that he would be able to stay faithful to Breanna. Long distance relationships were the most difficult relationships to maintain because of all of the temptations on the road. Tatiana did not know where they were going and she did not care. par the time that the tour was over, Michael and Breanna would be history and he would belong to Tatiana.

The suivant day,Tatiana forced herself not think about the tour. When she arrived at the studio for rehearsal, she noticed that Breanna was not there and she smiled. Good. Because I'm tired of seeing her face. As she rehearsed the routine with Michael to "The Way toi Make Me Feel", she was unable to keep the smile off of her face.

During lunchtime, Michael confronted her.

"Ok, what is up with you, Tatiana?", he demanded, folding his arms across his chest.

"What are toi talking about, Michael?", she asked innocently.

"You have been smiling all day. What are toi up to?"

"What? I can't smile? Tsk, tsk, Michael toi really do need to learn to trust people. Its not good to be paranoid all of the time."

She smiled and tried to walk away, but he blocked her path.

"Tatiana, toi must really think that I'm stupid. For months, toi have had an nasty attitude every time that toi have seen with- Wait, a minute I know what toi are up to and I'm gonna tell toi right now that its not going to work."

"I don't know what toi are talking about."

"Oh , don't try to play innocent with me. I know that toi think that toi are going to flirt with me because Breanna is not here, but toi can just forget it."

She laughed.

"What's so funny?", he demanded.

"You are, Michael. toi are so full of it that it is ridiculous. I know that toi are with Breanna and that I don't have a chance with you."

"You never did, Tatiana."

"Michael, as hard as it may be for toi to believe this, I am really happy for toi and Breanna. And all I want is to be your friend.", she a dit and walked away.

After rehearsal, Quincy invited Michael and his entourage over to his house for dinner. Tatiana smiled to herself because she had a feeling that Frank was going to break the bad news to Michael about the upcoming tour.
------------------------------
During dinner, Tatiana was nice to Breanna, who was just suspicious of her like Michael had been rehearsal.

"You look so cute tonight, Breanna. I just l’amour that dress on you.", she said, looking at Breanna's long rose and silver sequined dress.

"Um..thanks.", murmured Breanna. Girl, please I know that toi don't like me and I don't like you, so toi need to stop frontin., Breanna thought,taking a bite out of her t-bone steak.

That dress would look so much better on me., thought Tatiana.

"Everything is delicious, Q.", a dit Michael and everybody agreed with him.

"Don't tell me. Tell my wife", Quincy a dit with a laugh. He looked at his wife, Peggy Lipton, who beamed.

Frank cleared his throat. "Um, Quincy is there something that toi want to tell Michael?"

Quincy glared at Frank. He did not want to tell Michael because he knew that he would freak out. He sighed deeply.

"Michael, the tour dates for the Bad tour have been set.", he said.

"That's great, Q.", Michael a dit absently. He picked up his glass of minute Maid and started to drink it.

Quincy sighed again. "The tour is a world tour and toi will be gone for 2 yrs."

Bring on the fireworks., Tatiana thought.

Michael choked and sputtered on his drink. Frank, who was sitting beside him slapped him on the back.

"Pardon?", Michael a dit when he could speak again.

"I a dit that the tour is a world tour and that toi will be gone for 2 yrs."

Michael's eyes widened and he stared at his manager in shock. Breanna wiped her mouth and stood up.

"I need some fresh air. Excuse me.", she a dit and ran outside before Michael could stop her.
