Google Map fetch dynamic LatLng index

My code below trigger a simple Google Map event when the user click on the marker:

 google.maps.event.addListenerOnce(marker, 'click', function() {
    console.log(this.position);
 }

It displays the current position of the clicked marker like this:

 of {j: 51.469722, C: -0.4513890000000629}

In my application, I was fetching the Latitude and the Longitude of the clicked marker by using the index of the returned position:

 var positions = this.position;
 var latitude  = positions[0].j;
 var longitude = positions[0].C;

It was working fine until i found out that the index of this.position are dynamic, it can change at any time. instead of j and C I can have k and D as an index for each element of the position object.

Can someone help me to figure it out how I can manipulate the position of a marker without hard-coding the index and not breaking my code if the letters change?

var lat = this.getPosition().lat();
var lng = this.getPosition().lng();

Generally there are getters and setters for many things in GM, and you should look for those in the docs before going into the inspector.
