"Di tempat tidur, Eugenides bergerak dengan gelisah. "Kesal saat melihat darah?" dia berkata. "Bukan istriku, Ornon." "Darahmu," kata sang duta besar. Eugenides melirik kait di lengannya dan mengakui poinnya. "Ya," katanya. Dia tampak tenggelam dalam ingatan. Ruangan itu sunyi."

On the bed, Eugenides stirred restlessly. "Upset at the sight of blood?" he said. "Not my wife, Ornon." "Your blood," the ambassador pointed out. Eugenides glanced at the hook on his arm and conceded the point. "Yes," he said. He seemed lost in memory. The room was quiet.
