 Hana can hear the voices in the English patient’s room and stands in the hall trying to catch what they are saying.( How is it? Wonderful! Now it’s my turn. Ahh! Splendid, splendid. This is the greatest of inventions. A remarkable 1 find, young man. )When she enters she sees Kip and the English patient passing a can of condensed milk back and forth 2. The Englishman sucks at the can, then moves the tin away from his face to chew the thick fluid.( He beams at Kip, who seems irritated that he does not have possession of it. The sapper glances at Hana and hovers 3 by the bedside, snapping his fingers a couple of times, managing finally to pull the tin away from the dark face.) 


 
 
“We have discovered a shared pleasure. The boy and I. For me on my journeys in Egypt, for him in India.”(“Have you ever had condensed-milk sandwiches?” the sapper asks. )Hana glances back and forth between the two of them. Kip peers into the can. “I’ll get another one,” he says, and leaves the room. Hana looks at the man in the bed. 
“Kip and I are both international bastards—born in one place and choosing to live elsewhere. Fighting to get back to or get away from our homelands all our lives. Though Kip doesn’t recognize that yet. That’s why we get on so well together.” In the kitchen Kip stabs two holes into the new can of condensed milk with his bayonet, (which, he realizes, is now used more and more for only this purpose, )and runs back upstairs to the bedroom. “You must have been raised elsewhere,” the sapper says. “The English don’t suck it out that way.”
