Naomi

My name is Naomi Shan'Tel Morris, I'm 21 years old & I live in Miami, Florida. I stand 5"5, light bright skin tone & slim as a Jim with hips sitting on my waist & fat sitting at my ass. I'm currently in college, studying to be an Art Teacher for elementary kids. I'm not really looking for love because I was always told not to look for love but to let love find me.

It's currently 1:45 and I was already running behind schedule because I had just got off work. I work at a diner not too far from my apartment complex but the drive to my college would take at least 20 -30 minutes and my class starts at 2:30, not to mention I had to shower & change which added an extra 15 minutes to my packed schedule.

I unlocked the door to my complex & stripped down on my way to the bathroom. I set a alarm for 5 minutes and adjusted the water before lathering up a towel with my Summers Eve soap and washing myself down thoroughly. The alarm went off signaling that I needed to get out of the shower, I rinsed off, turned the water off & stepped out of the shower onto the soft, light pink rug in front of my tub.

I quickly dried off, applying my lotion and under garments to my body before walking over to my small, packed, closet. I threw some ripped jeans & a plain white t shirt on my bed before going over to my small vanity to do my hair. Once I finished I got dressed, I grabbed a pair of silver sandals & locked the house up before speeding down the road to my campus.

I parked & got out speed walking to class with 5 minutes left to spare before I was late, as I was walking I bumped into someone. I looked up about to apologize when I seen it was one of my professors.

"Sorry, I didn't see you walking I'm in a rush, my lecture starts in 3 minutes," I explained to him, while gathering myself preparing to continue my pacing.

"You're fine just watch out next time," he chuckled. "Thank you Prof. Johnston & will do," I huffed as a slid into the session right before the bell rung. I sat in my seat and got comfortable as my professor started her lesson. Her name was Prof. Banks, she's a slim thick, brown skin women & she appeared to be about the same height as me, maybe a bit shorter.

As she was giving her lecture I started to doze off. All of those long nights at the diner had me sleep deprived & to top it off coming home just to come straight here didn't make matters any better. I tried to stay awake as I felt sleep overtaking my body & my eyes started to get heavy. Just as I was nodding off I heard the bell ring, my que to go home & try to get some rest before work tonight.

Just as I was about to walk out the door I heard my name. "Ms. Morris mind if I have a word with you before you leave?" Banks called to me. I made my way over to her table & let the door shut so it was just us. Now that I'm closer to her she doesn't look much older than me I say mid 20s at most.

"Yes Prof. Banks?" I ask pretty sure she was about to get on me for dozing off. She looked at me for a while before opening her mouth to speak.

"I noticed that you don't seem all here during my lectures, care to tell me why that is?" she asked, folding her arms across her chest waiting for me to answer.

"I do apologize, I work late nights at the diner & by the time I get off I have to get ready to come to class right after so I've been a little tired lately but I'll do better," I told her sincerely, hoping she'd hear me out.  She got up from her seat standing in front of me, now I see we're actually the same height.

"I'll let it slide this once but I expect more of you Ms. Morris. If it happens again I'll have to have you stay behind so that I can start the lecture all over again & we both have lives to live so please try to stay up okay?"

"Okay, thank you for hearing me out Prof. Banks," I told her before gathering my things to leave.

"And if you need me to go over anything again for you please feel free to let me know, I don't do lectures Tuesdays or Fridays you know that," she told me as she watched me get ready to go.

"What time are you available?" I asked, looking at my phone to see that I could get at least a 4 hr nap in before I had to get ready for work.

"Just email me or you can text my number if you're comfortable with that," she stated before pulling her phone out handing it to me. I was hesitant at first but I locked my number in her phone and sent myself a quick text before locking her into mines.

"Okay, thanks if I don't reach out by Friday I definitely will by Tuesday," I thanked her before leaving the room, speed walking to my car. I hopped in and started er up before pulling off towards my apartment. 20 minutes later I killed the engine getting out & locking my doors.

I said hey to the doorman before hearing up to my complex. Boy was I beat! I quickly unlocked my door, closing it behind me & locking it back before putting my things on the coffee table in my living room. I stripped down again to nothing but underwear & collapsed onto my soft full size bed.

I let sleep overtake me as I felt my body starting to relax. It's going to be a long night at the diner, it always is on Wednesday's.
