Example from text: 

 

“Asleep,” Cordelia repeated, “the whole day?” Her voice was raising, “For what? Why could you possibly be so tired? Lazy child!” Rumaysa didn’t reply; her hands were trembling as she tried and failed to wrap the straw through the spindle. Cordelia looked around the room, her eyes zeroing in on the books by the bed. “Up reading late, were you?” she sneered. “I don’t mind you having some fun Rumaysa, but not when it interferes with my work! I clothe you and feed you and keep you safe, and all I ask in return is you make gold on time!” Rumaysa didn’t dare speak. Her stomach twisted with nerves and anger. “But no – apparently I am asking for too much!” Cordelia spat. “I’m sorry, Cordelia!” Rumaysa said, trying to keep her tone even.
