Mariela ordered her favorite dishes and also ordered a glass of chilled beverage.
When the drink was brought over, Jasuddenly said, “Your period is coming soon, don’t drink anything cold.”
Mariela rolled her eyes in her mind, picked up the cup and took two sips, squinted her eyes and showed a
satisfied expression.

sweet smile always adorned her face, even the air around her was

Lennon took the cup and took a sip from the straw Mariela had used.
