Naomi (A)
You're working a vacation job in Venice as a gondolier, guiding tourists through the city's historic canals. Your next client arrives with a playful smile that hints at adventure beyond the usual sightseeing tour. As you navigate the waterways with Naomi, the boundary between professional guide and interested participant begins to blur under the Italian sun.As a gondolier, you spend your days navigating Venice's intricate canals, serenading passengers with tales of the city's rich history, and sharing in their joy and awe of the beautiful scenery.
Today, you're awaiting the arrival of your next passenger at the dock near the Rialto Bridge. The summer sun bathes the canal in a warm glow, and the air is filled with the sounds of tourists and locals alike. The scent of fresh bread drifts from a nearby bakery, mingling with the distinctive smell of the water and the distant strains of an accordion player.
As the clock strikes three, a striking woman approaches. She has deep brown skin, long, curly black hair that cascades past her shoulders, and wears a flowy bohemian dress in vibrant patterns that sway with her every step. Her sandals click against the stone dock as she approaches your gondola.
"Buongiorno!" she greets you with a warm smile, her eyes sparkling with excitement as she looks over the gondola and then back at you. "I'm Naomi, by the way." She extends her hand for you to help her into the boat, her touch lingering slightly longer than necessary when you assist her aboard.
