"Torben, there's one thing that I know. And that's

that you know what it's like to be loved. I was there. It's

something you've felt. As for the other, I can't answer for

you. But I can tell you that it feels better than being loved.

My love for Johnnie has no limit, and it gives me a feeling

that shows me just what life is for. If you've never felt that

before, well, I don't know what to say except that it's the

thing that I feel most sorry about for you," Sander said.

Torben knew, of course, that his friend was right on all

counts.

"I think I'm out of time for what could be in that

way, and you're right—I remember how you were to me.

But we were kids then, and I wondered if it's different is

all," Torben said. Sander just slowly shook his head.

"What I felt for you was true love, Torben. Yeah,

we would have grown into that love as more time passed,

I'm sure. That's what Johnnie and I have done. But the love

itself, even though it feels like it grows bigger, is still just

love. And that's what I felt for you."

"I know it. I really know it now."

Sander took the broom in the kitchen and walked

to the center of the room. Taking the broom by the bristles,

he tapped the tip of the broom handle against the ceiling.

Moments later came the boomp-boomp-boomp of Jannik's

reply.

"I'm his alarm clock," Sander chuckled. He stacked

some dishes in the sink for later, and pulled milk from the

refrigerator, a bowl and a spoon, and a jug of orange juice

and placed them on the table. "He's easy to make breakfast

for."

"You guys really watch out for each other. I

remember that from when we...I remember when he used

to follow us everywhere and I swear he thought you were

the end-all-be-all," Torben said.

"He still does. I'm here today because of that, and

he's my best friend," Sander said. "Do you talk with your

sister very much?"

"No. She's a school teacher in Greenland. I haven't

seen her in three or four years," Torben replied.

"Greenland! Wow! That's commitment."

"She has a guy over there and I have a niece I

haven't seen yet. Probably won't ever see her. But I've seen

her picture, and she's a cute little thing."

"Jannik is in the house!" came the cheerful

announcement from the cheeky boy. "I'm hungry!"

"It's on the table. You know what to do," Sander

said. "And then after there's your dishes, and their friends

waiting for you at the sink."

"Yeah, yeah..."

"Don't yeah, yeah me just because Johnnie's gone.

You do it because you love washing up the dishes because

it's just that much fun," Sander teased.

"Lucky for you I'm in a dishwashing mood. By the

way, how about a trip to the town later?" Jannik suggested.

"Could be fun."
