A woman relaxed on a deck chair at the edge of the garden.
Two women and a man had evidently been relaxing on a stone patio.
She saw the woman relax, her head sinking down, then coming back up.
The woman relaxed and smiled uncertainly back, then began moving again.
When I finished the woman had relaxed a little.
In this case it wasn't, so she was patient enough to chat and wait until the woman had relaxed again.
The men and women could relax for a time; some even went home if they lived nearby.
For the first time, she saw the young woman relax a bit.
The old woman relaxed a little as the girl obeyed.
The two men moved off while the women relaxed and chatted.
