The kindness of the suggestion was not lost on Lena. With Eugene in tow, she would be of significantly less interest to her family – her brother was more eligible, more amenable, and far from being the lost cause that she was – and perhaps when she saw Helga and the babies, she might think of something to say to them?
What did one say to women like Helga anyway? She had never been sociable but then Helga had never had any interests to speak of other than marriage – it was a wonder they were relate at all.
“That sounds an excellent plan,” she replied without looking at her brother, instead glancing out of the window where, if possible, the weather was getting worse. “No sitting on the roof for us today,” she commented with a sad smile. “Those woes will have to wait for another day.”
