She stared at him for a long time while the words sank in.

A vehicle passed by, up on the road, so I let my words sink in a little more.

For a moment, it seemed his words might be sinking in.

The words sank in, but still he didn't look up.

He paused a moment to let the words sink in.

When her words sank in, I felt my eyes well up.

She sat there a moment, letting her words sink in.

He paused for a moment to let his words sink in.

He closed his eyes, and let her words sink in.

He sat there for a moment, letting the words sink in.
