A person questions why a strong girl like the narrator doesn't hold a regular-paying job, implying she might not need to work for money. The narrator takes her time to explain and understand her, emphasizing that even people earning minimal wages struggle to survive. This highlights the value of resilience and the unspoken strength that carries her through daily life.
The same individual also wonders why the narrator eagerly awaits someone all week. She struggles to find words to express what this person means to her. She describes her feelings as "the motion of the ocean" in her walk, and suggests that her connection with this person is so profound that she understands each other's silence without the need for words.
