His sister's letters, however, he remembered perfectly, and that made him smile, flat on his stomach, hidden in the grass, as sleep overtook him.

Las de su hermana, por el contrario, las recordaba a la perfección y eso lo hacía sonreír, boca abajo, oculto por la hierba, mientras el sueño lo iba ganando.

Cowart rose then from his seat. He decided to go to the men's room, where he spent several minutes running cold water over his wrists, trying to control the sudden heat that had overtaken him, and to slow his racing heart.
