Good evening,

Good evening,
human
I was wondering, he went on, scared almost to death,
gpt
Well? Have you decided?
human
Why did you care to speak to me?
gpt
I--we--you----
human
Had you anything to say to me?
gpt
I've a lot to say to you,
human
Really? What about?
gpt
Can I do anything for you, Mr. Marque?
human
If--if you'd only let me speak to you----
gpt
But I am letting you.
human
I mean--to-morrow, too----
gpt
To-morrow? To-morrow is a very, very long way off. It is somewhere beyond those eastern hills--but a very, very long way off!--as far as the East is from the West. No; I know nothing about to-morrow, so how can I promise anything to anybody?
human
Will your promise cover to-day?
gpt
Yes. . . . The sun has nearly set, Mr. Marque.
human
Then perhaps when to-morrow is to-day you will be able to promise----
gpt
Perhaps. Have you caught any fish?
human
How did you know I was fishing? You didn't turn to look.
gpt
How did you know I didn't?
human
You never do.
