"Aku tegang, menunggu amarah - baik miliknya maupun milikku - tetapi itu hanya sunyi dan tenang dalam kegelapan kamarnya. Aku hampir bisa merasakan manisnya reuni di udara, aroma terpisah dari parfum napasnya; kekosongan ketika kami berpisah meninggalkan rasa pahitnya sendiri, sesuatu yang tidak kusadari sampai hilang. Tidak ada gesekan di antara kami. Keheningan itu damai - tidak seperti ketenangan sebelum badai, tetapi seperti malam yang cerah tanpa disentuh bahkan oleh mimpi badai."

Versi Bahasa Inggris

I tensed, waiting for the fury - both his and mine - but it was only quiet and calm in the darkness of his room. I could almost taste the sweetness of reunion in the air, a separate fragrance from the perfume of his breath; the emptiness when we were apart left its own bitter aftertaste, something I didn't consciously notice until it was removed. There was no friction in the space between us. The stillness was peaceful - not like the calm before the tempest, but like a clear night untouched by even the dream of a storm.
