For a long time, they sat without speaking. The air outside was filled with the lilting sound of sparrows, the buzz of traffic on Main Street, and under that the faint lapping of waves on the lakeshore. Lou smiled. It wasn't the same, but it was better. And better, Lou thought, is a start. Danika Stone
About This Quote

This quote is very meaningful and beautiful. The author talks about how they sat for a long time without talking. I believe that this is to show how they both care for each other and that they are comfortable with each other. It gives them the opportunity to bond and become friends before they go their separate ways. Lou and Sam feel like they know each other and know what the other is thinking and feeling and this leads to a better friendship.
