The clock strikes one o’clock and the afternoon hunger sets in. A student starts digging through her backpack trying to find a few quarters and dollars to buy a lunch.

In a few weeks, she will be able to buy her groceries, a school lunch and whatever else she may need, but until then she has to wait it out.
