I'm in Love with a Church Girl Page #7

Vanessa.

Such good worship today,

by the way.

Praise God.

Miles...

Pastor.

It was a pleasure.

Pleasure's all mine.

Hope you two

brought your appetites,

because your mother cooks enough

for an army.

It looks good too, Ma.

So you got Miles

to go to church?

Mm-hmm.

Just this Sunday.

I cannot believe this.

Vanessa,

you are an angel from heaven.

You just don't know

how hard I've been praying

for this boy.

Whoo, you and I both.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, let's say grace.

Dear Lord,

thank You for the food

we are about to receive

for the nourishment

and health of our bodies,

for our wonderful son, Miles,

and for bringing the beautiful

Vanessa into our lives.

She is truly

an angel from heaven.

In Jesus' name we pray.

Amen.

Now, Vanessa, honey,

don't you be afraid

to crack the whip on this...

If he gives you any trouble,

you just let us know.

We'll straighten him out.

All right,

I like the sound of that.

Let's eat.

Man, what took you so long?

Sorry, big dog.

Sorry?

Let me tell you something, man.

Don't ever have me waiting

like that ever again.

You hear me?

Yeah, I hear you.

Man, here.

125k, man, nice and neat,

just like you like it.

All right, here, man.

Get out of here.

Get out of my car.

All right.

See you soon, Martin.

Yeah, whatever.

Got you.

Babe, I got a question.

What's up?

Have you considered,

you know,

taking that walk of faith

during the altar call?

Babe,

I ain't gonna lie to you.

What?

I'm still trying to figure

this whole thing out.

I mean,

I know there's a God,

and I'm supposed to act

a certain way and everything,

but to be real, babe,

I'm still researching

this whole salvation thing.

I mean, I just don't want

to dive into it.

Does that make

any sense to you?

Yes, it makes perfect sense,

babe.

I get it.

I will say this, though.

What will you say?

I feel real good

when I'm in church.

Yeah?

Yeah.

I mean, it feels like

everything's moving

in the right direction,

you know?

But then I get to thinking,

if God is this all loving,

all seeing, all being God,

then why does He allow

things to happen

like rape, murder,

war?

Like, that part

I don't understand, babe.

I see you clearly have been

giving this a lot of thought.

Well, yeah, I mean,

just the other night,

I'm sitting in bed,

and I'm watching this program,

and this Muslim speaker's

speaking,

and he's talking about

the book that they read,

the Koran.

Okay.

He's basically saying that,

you know, they believe

that Jesus existed

but that he was only

a prophet,

and then he started getting into

all these scientific facts

that exist in the Koran

that, you know,

scientists didn't even discover.

I thought it was...

I thought it was

really, really interesting.

All right, well,

how did it make you feel?

To be honest?

I don't know,

it's a lot to swallow, babe.

All right, well,

whenever you're ready.

Whenever you're ready.

Hopefully sooner

rather than later.

Merry Christmas, everybody.

Merry Christmas.

What a special time of year

this is.

To think that God

would become flesh

and dwell among us,

that ought to fill our hearts

with joy.

Vanessa, honey, it was so nice

meeting your family.

Thank you.

You're all so beautiful.

And with such pretty daughters

as you three,

it's no wonder your father

turned to the Lord.

Man must spend

a lot of time on his knees.

Amen.

Look, Mom, Dad,

me and V

want to give y'all

a little something.

We know y'all been trying

to, you know,

get away

for quite some time,

so we got y'all something

we think y'all might like.

Wait a minute, son,

what is this?

Open it up.

Okay.

Sandals Resorts.

Look at this place.

Oh, my gosh, it's the one

we saw in the commercial.

Thank you.

Look at this, honey.

Son, this is beautiful,

but you shouldn't have.

Aw, come on, Pop.

You and Mom been trying

to get away for years,

so this is our gift to you.

Baby, I love it,

and I'm so glad to finally

get to go to Sandals.

Sandals, here we come.

Merry Christmas, Mom.

Oh, merry Christmas.

Listen to this.

"How much more pleasing

is your love than wine,

"sweetness as the honeycomb,

my bride.

"Milk and honey

under your tongue.

"Your two breasts

are like two fawns.

"I slept,

but my heart was awake.

"Listen, my love is knocking.

"My head is drenched

with dew.

"I've taken off my robe.

"Must I put it on again?

My lover thrusts his hand

through the latch opening. "

Now, that sounds like

late-night HBO to me.

Hold up.

If you could hear

how you just read that...

I read it how it's reading.

That's what it is.

Babe, okay,

are you trying to say

that the Bible says

that it's okay to have sex?

Babe, I don't know what

the Bible is saying.

I guess I'm just trying

to figure this all out.

That's all.

Babe,

I can almost assure you

that these people

that they're talking about

are married.

Now, the Bible says you can

totally enjoy

your spouse sexually.

Now, how did you interpret it?

You know what?

I'm sorry I brought it up.

Just forget about it.

No, no.

That's a good thing.

It's good that

we discuss these things.

Just forget it.

It's important to discuss

the Word of God.

Drop it.

Really?

Really?

Y'all in trouble now.

Uncle Freddie.

Miles, my man, man.

Marty, what's up?

What's up, baby?

Where you been at, man?

Ain't seen you around

in a minute.

Just been rippin'

and runnin', baby.

You know,

rippin' and runnin'.

Hey, you all right, Miles?

Don't I look all right?

I mean, not really,

but if you say so.

Hey, where's Vanessa at?

Man, I don't know.

She's around somewhere.

She just ain't here with me,

you know?

So what,

you ready to party

with your boys tonight,

then, or what?

You know what?

Let's do that, man.

Drinks are on me tonight, man.

I ain't been with y'all

in a minute.

Let's do what we do.

Let's do it.

Keep them coming all night,

beautiful.

Okay, I'll be back.

Baby, thank you.

Hey, yo, Miles,

what's going on with you, man?

For real?

With what?

With what?

With you, homey.

I mean, we don't ever

see you around no more, dog,

and when we do,

it's never without Vanessa.

You say that to say what?

Look, dog,

I'm just saying, man.

You ain't nowhere near

your normal self,

and to be honest with you,

man,

me and the fellas is just

concerned about you, man.

That's all.

Look, I just need

a little vacation.

That's all.

I'm good.

Look, dog,

me and you go back, man.

We go back further than

all these cats right here,

and if there's one thing

I know about you,

the only thing that can get you

off your square is a girl,

so if you need

to talk about it,

for real, I'm right here

like I always been, man.

I'm all ears,

but if not,

then that's cool too, man,

'cause I got something else

that can get your mind off that,

you feel me?

Hey. yo, ladies!

Ladies, come on in here.

Let's get this thing started.

Yeah, yeah

Come on, you can catch me

in a big body
