Quote by Keary Taylor
We didn't say or write anything for a long time. Normally silence like that was uncomfortable and awkward. Like you needed to say something to fill the empty space in the air. But it didn't feel like that with Samantha. Maybe it was because I couldn't say anything and fill the quiet, but I thought it was more about two people just being with each other, enjoying the slowdown and the rare sunshine.
Summary
The quote highlights the significance of silence in a conversation between two people, specifically focusing on the dynamics between the speaker and Samantha. While silence often creates discomfort and a need to break it by speaking, the speaker feels differently when with Samantha. Their silence is described as peaceful and enjoyable, suggesting that their understanding and connection go beyond words. This implies that true companionship can be found not just in constant chatter, but also in shared moments of stillness and appreciation for each other's company.
