Still feeling
nauseous, and now hot, Briony pressed her cheek against the wall. It was
no cooler than her face. She longed for a glass of water, but she did not
want to ask her sister for anything.

"Still feeling nauseous, and
now hot, Briony pressed her cheek against the wall. It was no cooler than
her face. She longed for a glass of water, but she did not want to ask her
sister for anything" (p.
339).
