Seconds later Allen opened the door for Cupid to let him in.
"Man get dressed, you going out tonight."
"No I'm not!"
"My man, don't you think it would be cool to hang out with the fellas
for one night, come meet some nice girls, and do your thing?"
"No, cause I'll see you bums on Sunday, and the girls that you fools
meet have no substance."
"Whateva man. Jones, what kind of woman are you looking for?
Does she have to be a dime?"
"Only inside."
"What?"
"Listen bruh, there are five ways to describe a woman. You can have
a cute woman, a pretty woman, a fine woman, a beautiful woman and a
gorgeous woman. Now of the five, four of them can be erased, but only
one description remains, that's the beautiful woman. Simply because
her beauty is inside. Now as far as her being sexy, well understand this,
clothes can never make a woman sexy. Being sexy is the way a woman
smells, the way she talks, the way she walks, the way that she wears her
clothes and how she carries herself."
"So you're telling me, that if a dime walked in here half naked you
wouldn't get excited?"
"My man,"
Allen said with laughter,
"I am a man, and as a man,
seeing the opposite sex does excite me. But the thing that you don't
understand is that, and hear me good, if she is half naked, I have already
seen everything that she has to offer, what else is left?"
"The sex."
"And that is exactly why I am staying home tonight."
"Jones, if you're always in the house, how do you expect to find a
woman?"
"That's just it Cupid, I don't want to find her, I want us to find each
other. And I know that we will not meet in a night club."
"How do you know?"
"'Cause, the woman for me will have more to do with her life than
going out to clubs on her days off. If that is what she wants to do then
we will find a place where we can do it together. Now I'm not saying that
I'm better than any other man, but I know what I want."
"I guess you know what's best for you Jones. Well the guys are
waiting for me."
Cupid turned and headed for the door and as he opened it he turned
and told Allen that he was a deep brotha, then shut the door behind him.
Once Cupid was gone, Allen reached for the phone and turned the ringer
off. He then got up to place the bolt lock on the door and turn off the
lights that were on. Finally, Allen regained his position on the sofa and
continued with his evening.
