Looking forward to the road trip

Everything is packed in the car
Time to leave
Few hours into the journey
Something has been forgotten,
they remembered early
Still to turn back now,
A few hours would be taken anyhow

They decide to stop on the journey
to fill the cool bag slide

A service station
This is a safe option haven
The car is parked,
with a view directly,
into the service queue

The woman goes in
Outside in the car,
the partner watches,
from not to far

Some time went past,
so he went inside
what's taking so long,
with the supply guide

No sign of the woman inside
He asks at the till
They state she left,
the service fill

He goes back to the car,
looks all around the car park,
no sight by far

He calls to report her missing
Years go by without a trace
What happened to the woman,
and the cool bag case
