select those 2 lines and choose Path > Combine
Select node tool :tool_node:
with the node tool select the 2 nodes you want to connect
On the Node toolbar choose the option "Join selected endnodes with a new segment"
do the same for the other 2 nodes :)
just hand over the chocolate and nobody gets hurt
