“Next time, don’t fall asleep.”
Her dad commented: “A father should drive his daughter to class so she doesn’t fall asleep on someone else’s shoulder!”
The young man enjoyed a light-hearted chat with the student’s parents before she ended up adding him as a friend on social media.
The pair then slipped into each other’s DMs.
The unnamed student revealed that she secretly took a snap of him as he relaxed as well.
