"What is your plan for today?" Cassandra asked.

Cassandra shook her head in response and set her half-eaten sandwich down before speaking, "I'm not concerned about that. What worries me is... that you'll be driving there. You've never driven such a long distance before, Iris. Did you forget how you had an accident?"
