"Selama istirahat dia mengintip ke teater, menontonnya mengisi ulang. Ketika hampir penuh dan lampu berkedip-kedip, dia melihat tiga orang masuk melalui pintu tengah dan napasnya tersengal. Waktu berlalu ketika mereka berjalan di lorong tengah: tiga gadis remaja berturut-turut. Mereka begitu besar, begitu cerah, begitu indah, begitu luar biasa bagi mata Carmen sehingga dia pikir dia sedang membayangkan mereka. Mereka seperti dewi, seperti Titans. Dia sangat bangga pada mereka! Mereka murah hati dan mereka benar. Sekarang, ini adalah teman."
--- Ann BrasharesVersi Bahasa Inggris
During intermission she peeked out at the theater, watching it refill. When it was almost full and the lights blinked on and off, she saw three people file in through the center door and her breath caught. Time lapsed as they walked down the center aisle: three teenage girls all in a row. They were so big, so bright, so beautiful, so magnificent to Carmen’s eyes that she thought she was imagining them. They were like goddesses, like Titans. She was so proud of them! They were benevolent and they were righteous. Now, these were friends.
