---------------------//
Tira was putting the finishing touches on her new room before her students walked in. Tira is a 23 year old first grade teacher for deaf students, she teach the kids sign language, math, science, writing and reading.
Tira developed to be a non-hearing person. When she was 5, Tira started to lose her hearing in her right ear. When she got older her left ear started to lose hearing. Before she completely lost her hearing, Tira took classes in sign language so she doesn't have to struggle to talk to other deaf students in her new school.
During the process she made friends that helped her through her mother's passing and her father leaving her to live with her 18 year old brother. When Tira's brother was out at the grave yard shift, she would stay over one of her friends house until her brother picked her up.
Tira was only 16 when her brother enrolled in the army. She had to move with her aunt and cousin. It was lonely for Tira because she had to go to the public school for hearing students. Her cousin wouldn't talk nor be around her until they was in the house. Her aunt would work late in the night and come back in the evening to sleep for 5 hours and leave again.
When Tira turned 18 she had a full ride scholarship in Yale. Once she read that paper she packed up her stuff and moved to Conneticut.
Now she has a bachelor degree in teaching and teaching in the number 1 top deaf private school in the U.S.A. But all through those years Tira never found love. Guys would come and go. The last guy that she was with took her vaginity and broke her heart the day after. Ever since then she would stop trying to find love and be happy with what she have now.
The light flashing around the room took her out of her trance. She wrote 'Ms. Phillips' on the chalk board and wiped her hands together.
A group of happy little kids came walking in with there parents. Tira waved at each of her students and shook hands with the parents. Each parent said goodbye to there kids by using sign language and left.
But one parent and student stood out the most when they walked in. A tall dark skin gentleman walked in with a little brown skin girl in his arms. He put the little girl down and look at Tira up and down while biting his lip. Tira blushed and looked down at the little girl. They waved at each other.
Tira look back up at the man and shook his hand. "umm" the man said while trying to use sign language to introduce hisself. Tira giggled and shook her head. The man stopped trying, Tira wrote 'I can read lips' on the chalk board. "Oh sorry, I'm Defonte and this little girl is Nia" (A/N: my real name) he patted Nia's head. She picked up the chalk and wrote 'Nice to meet you Mr. Defonte and Ms. Nia. I hope you like my class this year'
She look back at Nia. 'I will' Nia signed. Tira was impressed, usually kids her age doesn't know that much about signing. Tira nod and look back at Defonte, he was looking at Tira like she was a peice of chocalate he craved.
Defonte knelt down to Nia's and kiss her on the forehead. Nia waved goodbye as her father left out the door. Nia took her seat in the front of the class as Tira erased the sentence she wrote.
After school she packed up and left the class. She walked to the front of the school but stopped in her tracks when she saw Nia sitting down on the floor.
Tira knelt down to Nia's level, Nia smiled and waved. Tira waved back and pointed at her watch. Nia wrote something down in her dry erase board Tira brote for the class 'my daddy is on his way.'
Tira nod and took out her erase board 'Until then how about we go back to the classroom' she wrote. Nia nod and stood up straight, she grabbed her lunchbox and book bag. Tira grabbed Nia's little hand. They walked back to the classroom.
Nia sat at her desk while coloring, Tira gave her a little snack so she won't be starving.
They have been waiting for a hour for Defonte. Tira got irritated and worried, she started to think what if he got in a accident on his way here. To relax herself, Tira started to write a chapter of her book on Wattpad.
A few minutes later a heavy breathing, sweatie and basketball shorts wearing Defonte ran in the warm. "I'm so sorry, this will never happen again" he said. Tira walked over to a sleeping Nia and rubbed her back to wake her up. Nia yawned and wiped her eyes, Defonte grabbed Nia's bags and picked her up. Immediately Nia's head went on his shoulder.
They walked out the building and went into the same directions to their cars. Defonte turned around "Are you following us?" He asked. Tira rolled her eyes and use her keys to unlock the car door. Which was by his car "Sorry" Defonte put Nia in her car seat and closed the car door. Tira put her stuff in the back before closing the door. Now they was facing each other, not knowing what to write or say.
"Thank you for Staying there with her" Defonte said. Tira nod and took out her dry erase board. 'Make sure it doesn't happen again' she wrote.
"It won't I promise" he smiled. 'You need to work on your sign language, Nia is really smart and she will learn a lot of it' Tira wrote. "I know, maybe you should tutor me sometime this week over dinner"
'Are you asking me out?'
"Yes, if your okay with that"
Tira nod 'Okay how about Friday'
"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow Ms. Phillips" he kissed her cheek and got on his car. Tira got in the car and started the engine. Defonte left out first before Tira. The whole ride home, Tira was thinking about Defonte and his body.
