Number the Stars

Mrs. Johansen enjoys teasing her brother over the fact that he has never married.

Mama always teased him gently for not marrying; she asked him , laughing, when they were together, whether he had found a good wife yet, one who would keep his house tidier. Henrik teased back, and told Mama that she should come to Gilleleje to live again so that he wouldn't have to do all the chores by himself.
