You are kind to say so, Mr. de Brabazon.
gpt
Not at all. I hoped I might meet you again soon. What a pleasant time we had at the party.
human
I thought so at the time, but the next day I changed my mind.
gpt
Why, may I ask?
human
Because your aunt, Mrs. Leighton, took me to task for dancing with you twice.
gpt
Was she so absurd?
human
It is not necessarily absurd. She said our social positions were so different that it was unbecoming for me to receive attention from you.
gpt
Rubbish!
human
I am afraid I ought not to listen to such strictures upon the words of my employer.
gpt
I wish you didn't have to teach.
human
I can't join you in that wish. I enjoy my work.
gpt
But you ought to be relieved from the necessity.
human
We must accept things as we find them,
gpt
There is a way out of it, said Percy, quickly.
human
You understand me, do you not?
gpt
I think I do, Mr. de Brabazon, and I am grateful to you, but I am afraid it can never be.
human
How far are you going?
gpt
I intend to get out at Fourteenth Street.
human
Then I must bid you good-afternoon, for we are already at Fifteenth Street.
gpt
If I can be of any service to you, I will ride farther.
human
Thank you, said Florence, hastily,
gpt
Then, good morning!
