Ivanna wondered why the car had stopped so suddenly,
then looked forward only to see a red traffic light hanging above them.
"Ah," she thought.
Once the light turned green,
Caesar continued driving smoothly,
and Ivanna opened the bag to explore its contents with excitement.
Her eyes landed on the snacks – chocolates, crackers, cookies and some chips,
she decided dark chocolate would be perfect
to ease her menstrual cramps and calm her stomach.
She quickly grabbed a large bar of dark chocolate,
opened the packaging with a soft tear,
and tore off the first grid of chocolate with anticipation.
