"Anehnya dia merasa mati rasa. Seolah-olah dari kejauhan, dia sadar bahwa dia dipukuli. Sensasi terakhir dari rasa sakit meninggalkannya. Dia tidak lagi merasakan apa-apa, meskipun sangat samar dia bisa mendengar dampak klub pada tubuhnya. Tapi itu bukan lagi tubuhnya, rasanya begitu jauh."

Versi Bahasa Inggris

He felt strangely numb. As though from a great distance, he was aware that he was being beaten. The last sensations of pain left him. He no longer felt anything, though very faintly he could hear the impact of the club upon his body. But it was no longer his body, it seemed so far away.
