Free A Gangsta Twist Saga by Clifford “Spud” Johnson Page A

forget, she thought as she went into her bathroom to take a shower.
    Clifford arrived at Sacha’s home right on time. He was dressed casually, as usual, in a pair of khakis and a long sleeved Polo shirt. While he waited for Sacha to come let him inside of her home, he checked to make sure that he had everything. He did as she requested, and stopped at the liquor store and bought an expensive bottle of Chablis. He also made a quick stop at Blockbuster and rented two DVDs for them to watch. Just being able to spend quality time like this with her made him feel as if there was indeed a perfect world.
    Sacha opened the door with one hand and had the other on her hip. The three-inch heels by Giorgio Armani made it seem as if she almost stood eye to eye with Clifford. She smiled seductively and said, “Hi, handsome! Come on in.” She turned and led the way into the living room. She could feel Clifford’s eyes all over her was she walked. Tiny goose bumps were all over her body as she thought about what she was actually about to do. Damn! I’m more excited than I thought I’d be, she thought as she sat down on the sofa.
    Clifford followed her into the living room and said, “You never did tell me what you wanted me to rent, so I got us Diary of a Mad Black Woman and Batman Begins . Is that cool?” he asked as he set the DVDs and the bottle of wine on the coffee table.
    No, this nigga didn’t! I know he can see what I’m wearing. He can’t possibly think I’m trying to watch some damn DVDs! Or is he just nervous? Yeah, that’s it. Cliff’s a li’l scared. That’s so cute! she thought as she slid next to him on the sofa and said, “Baby, I’m not really in the mood to watch any movies. Why don’t we open up that bottle of wine and listen to some music and chill?”
    â€œThat’s cool, baby, but I really want to check out this Diary of a Mad Black Woman . Alton down in Entertainment told me that it was definitely worth watching.”
    Is this man serious? Hold up! He is! She watched as Clifford got up from the sofa and went toward her entertainment center, where her television and DVD player were located. She watched amazingly as he inserted the DVD into the DVD player . Uh-uh! This ain’t even happening! She got up and said, “Cliff, come here for a minute.”
    He turned around and faced her and said, “Yeah, babe?”
    â€œDo you like what I have on?”
    As if noticing what she was wearing for the first time, he said, “Oh, that’s sexy, Sacha. I like how your toenails are painted the same color green as your skirt.”
    â€œEmerald.”
    â€œHuh?”
    â€œI said, emerald. My toenails are emerald, not green.”
    â€œMy bad. They still look nice.”
    â€œThanks!” she said sarcastically. She sat back down and watched as Clifford went back to turning on the television. Uh-uh! Not me! Not tonight! If this clown-ass nigga really wants to watch this movie, he’s going to be on his own! she thought to herself as she stood up and said, “Cliff, I’m not in the mood to watch any movies. Let’s do something else instead.”
    He turned toward her and asked, “Like what, Sacha?”
    â€œLet’s go to the club and hang out.”
    â€œThe club? Which one? Birdies down in Bricktown, or that one by the Comedy Store?”
    â€œNeither. Let’s go to Club Cancun or to Rhea’s.”
    â€œWhat? I know you’re not serious! You want to go to one of those ’hood clubs?”
    â€œâ€™Hood clubs? I want to go out and have a good time with my peoples, not a bunch of corny fakes. Is there something wrong with that, Cliff?”
    For the first time this evening he seemed to be aware of Sacha and her tone of voice. If he’d only paid closer attention, he would have had his wildest fantasies about her come true. But since he didn’t, he was now wondering what
