Dear child, she said,
gpt
I'm waiting for someone who's coming to see me, Benny; and as he may be here at any minute, and I don't suppose you want to be caught in your present costume----
human
Oh, at my age! she said.
gpt
After all, what is the use of having lovely dressing gowns if no one ever sees them?
human
It's Dan O'Bannon that's coming, said Lydia,
gpt
O'Bannon coming here! But, Lydia, you can't see him alone--at this hour. Why, it's midnight!
human
Eleven minutes to, said Lydia, with her eyes on the clock.
gpt
I wish you'd go, Benny.
human
I don't think you ought to see him alone. I don't think it's quite--quite nice.
gpt
Oh, this is going to be very nice!
human
No, I mean I don't think it's safe. Suppose anything should happen.
gpt
Should happen? said Lydia, and for a moment she looked like the old haughty Lydia.
human
What could happen?
gpt
He might try to make love to you,
human
What disgusting ideas you do have Benny! That man! She stopped herself.
gpt
I almost wish he would. If he did I think I should kill him.
