Read this excerpt from "Water Never Hurt a Man" by Walter D. Edmonds. "I guess I left it a while back. I guess it was in that kind of scrummage we had. I guess it needs a heavier whip anyhow. I guess a man couldn't spare the time going back for it." "Sure," said George. He reached down and took it from its peg, recoiled it, and tossed it ashore. The boat went ahead, slowly, with a sound of water, and of rain falling, and of wind. Which statement best describes the interaction between the characters in this excerpt?

As you can see in the excerpt shown in the question above, George does not interrupt what John is saying, on the contrary, he listens to everything John says and when he responds he agrees with him. With that, we can see that there is a relationship of harmony between these two characters, where one shows a strong respect for the opinion of the other that is always well accepted in a conversation between them.
