In Fault in Our Stars by John Green there is a very good use of Symbol. A symbol is an object item or even word that has a deeper meaning or represents something more then its physical state. In The Fault in Our Stars every time Hazel and Gus are hanging up on the phone they both say "okay" one after another until one of them finally hangs up.

3. I think that the purpose of using the symbol "Okay" is to show their love and care for eachother. Hazel and Gus have a very special relationship together. They have a connection through cancer and they are also both very different. Them saying "okay" until one of them hangs up also shows that they don't want to let eachother go.I think that may be looking forward into the fact that they are both dying of cancer so they don't want to leave eachother to die. So the signifigance of "okay" actually plays a huge role in the book.
