Quote #10
Peder shook his head as if giving up on words, reached out, and took her hand. Miri bit her lip to keep herself from pulling away. She was certain he could feel her heartbeat in her fingers and would know that inside she was trembling and sighing. (25.158)
Sometimes you don't need words to tell someone how you really feel. Peder doesn't need to say something long and convoluted to get his point across; he just has to reach over and take Miri's hand. That says everything.
