"Hatinya memar oleh ciuman itu, hancur dan terkejut dan gelisah karenanya. September mengira ciuman itu bagus, hal-hal manis meminta dengan lembut dan dengan senang hati. Itu terjadi begitu cepat dan tajam hingga butuh napas. Mungkin dia melakukan kesalahan, entah bagaimana. Dia menyingkirkan ciuman itu dengan kuat untuk dipikirkan nanti. Sebaliknya, dia tersenyum padanya dan menarik topeng riang di wajahnya."

--- Catherynne M. Valente

Versi Bahasa Inggris

Her heart was bruised by the kiss, smashed and surprised and unsettled by it. September thought kisses were all nice, sweet things asked for gently and given gladly. It had happened so fast and sharp it had taken her breath. Perhaps she had done it wrong, somehow. She put the kiss away firmly to think about later. Instead, she smiled at him and pulled a carefree mask over her face.
