Finding the meat market was simple as apple pie and Wal-Mart where everywhere here, the Wal-Mart I walked into was bigger than the one at home ours just had groceries none of the fancy stuff that this one had. I looked up and down the aisles with my list in hand. I looked for the sausage but to no avail I figured that I wouldn’t because its normally found only in butcher shops not to mention I liked the sausage fresher than prepackaged stuff. I wondered the store looking at the people. There were some rowdy kids, the coupon clippers, normal shoppers all the same people that when to my Wal-Mart but there was a different air about the place I felt out of place here. I had to shrug it off I looked to my left to witness the kids stealing stuff there was three of them one with red hair bony, another one was a fat kid in a big jacket, and the last kid was a skinny blond kid. I didn't mind that they took stuff stealing from a corporation is all well and fine but theft from the good folk. I would feel compelled to squeal. The line moved like a pond the food stamp group of Mexicans never failed to hold up a line that didn't change from home. I placed my things on the belt the clerk almost had a hard time when I asked her how her day was. As I was leaving the rowdy kids crossed my path again the fat kid’s pockets where healthy with their spoils. We both crossed the beepers my heart stops every time I crossed these. No beeps for anyone. "Lucky kids." I spoke softly as I walked out of the store.
I walked down the road and ran into a meat market the smell of fresh meat enveloped the place and the best part it was very close to the apartment that I stayed at it was only 4 blocks away. I walked in was greeted by a really big man at least 300 pounds there was obvious cuts and bruises on this man as if he was in a fight but none in the more visible locations. "Hey man are you ok?" I questioned him in a sincere way I know I'm just a customer but I might be able to help if you have a problem. I took out a pen and wrote on a piece of napkin "look I know you don’t know who the hell I am but if your bosses are tormenting you I can take care of them and no one will suspect you." I placed it on the counter motioning for his attention, I slipped him the note "I'm looking for some Boudin sausage, is there a way you can hook me up with some."

You're learning the streets quickly as there is a bit more order to them then you are used to. Everything goes smoothly and it' not long before you have the meats, spices and other things you need. Not just for this meal, but a few. You've managed to find a few good deals. Your mind s a buzz with anticipation and your heart races just a bit with excitement. Tonight is going to be a good night.
It was harder then usual to find a parking space, but you manage to get one close-ish. You juggle your goods between walmart bags and the local brown bag for the good meats as you move up the stairs. You almost loose everything on the second floor as a few kids come running by playing child hood games and each one bumps you worse then the last. Only one yells something to you and you're pretty sure it wasn't an apology. The streets make then meaner and meaner, younger and younger. If you're the kinda guy you might feel pitty in your heart because the kid never had a chance.
Its on your hall you see Naomi knocking at your door at the other end of the hall. She has a worried look on her face, but man is she looking god despite it. Dressed up with her hair down up in chop sticks, a nice dress with a low neck line and heels. She's clutching a small purse in her hands as she taps on your door patiently.

I look down the hall at Naomi. She is all dressed up. I had to shift the bags to not drop them. Not only the way she looks but everything about it I have to think about myself all that would look very good on my floor but I can’t say it doesn't look good on her. My shoes echo in the hall as I go closer to my door where she is. That's when I see her face, she is worried but from what. "Hey Naomi, what’s going on." I shuffle the bags around to get my keys from my pockets. I unlock the door and place the groceries down in a hurry. Then I quickly turn my attention to her as I get her a glass of water. I didn't turn to the alcohol just yet as this date might still happen but it was ready if she needed something stronger.

She moves just enough to let you in first then hangs in the door frame. She's blushing and she speaks in that almost broken English of hers, she got all the words right it just the way she says then and when she pauses thats wrong, but very close. "Oh I didn't not smell the cooking so I didn't know if something came up." She nods the bags, "But I see you were just out shopping." Her face is red, but her smile is bright. "I get all worried up over nothing, I am very embarrassed." She says trying to mask it all with a chuckle.

Dont be worried I can handle myself I stated with a little smirk. I picked up the bags and started to empty them I put the ingredients that were needed for the dinner that I had planed. The grocerys taped the counter I couldn't help myself from looking at how good she actually looked I had to break the awkward silence other wise I look like some idiot just gawking. I grabbed the meat in the bag and I stoped "what is your thoughts on pork?" I asked, I got other stuff that I can use if she was one of those vegetarians or a folk in a rule based religion. I was still holding onto the sausage in the bag just waiting for her answer.

She smiles brightly. "I love pig." She seemed to almost be standing on her tip toes with excrement. "Do you drink?" She asks coming closer to the kitchen but topping just short of. "There is a store that has drinks from Japan. I know the man and he gives me good deals." She offers. "I would be honored to share a bottle with you tonight."

I would love that." i said as i put the weeks groceries in the cupboard and packing what was needed for the dinner and prep for the meal.. "Well before it get to late lets eat and we can go out so lets move it over to your place." i said with a closed smile and patting the bag.

things were starting to turn for me with the little bit of remembering what to do but after a mix up or too i got the dinner to the plate it looked like braudin jumbalia but a whole lot more black on one side and a little more salty. "sorry about that I'm the best cook in the world my momma would have said that i would mess up boiling water." i said just before i bowed to pray over my food. Lord bless this food and i hope it tastes alright, amen. i looked to her to see if she if she was eating yet.

She took a bite then her face turned red and she swallowed down some water. "Its very spicy." Her face red again she sipped a little more, "I like it." Her face was one big smile as she ate, "Tell me more about you," She said between bites.

I smiled and when she said she liked it "well its no where near as good as my mommas" I said as I took a bite and even I winced at the spiciness of the dish."Well I came from the heartland of Louisiana. I was a orphan for a long time till I was about 7 that's when I met my momma Cecile she gave me a new life, I was on the fast track to the bad life in and out of jail, but she saw what I could become and took me in and polished me into a well groomed person. I owe her a lot." I looked down at my food in deep thought till I was snapped back at the clanging of a fork. "Sorry got lost in the my thoughts." The meal almost over to the point where the stomach was on fire. "You know I could really go for that drink. Ill clean this up and we can head for that drink." I said with a wink and a smile.

"No. No." She said shaking one finger, "You cook, I clean. Fairs Fair." She stood taking the plates to the kitchen and smiling said, "Let me get my coat, its chilly at night." She was all smiles and bubbly as champagne. She seemed like a brighter happier girl then he had met just a week before. Pausing at the door, "I'll meet you in the hall." Stealing a last glance she disappeared out the door.

"Alright ill see you out there." I left her apartment and headed to my place to get ready. I entered my place and I grabbed my staff and placed it where it suppose to go on my back. my trench flapped as I put it on. "Alright I think I can protect my praline." I waited in the hall and set out with her.
(Yeah we are going to skip to the other one now)
