Yes, that's my thrilling news! Aren't you pleased, Linda?
gpt
Of course I am, darling! I think it's wonderful.... I was just being selfish--wondering whether it would interfere with our flight.
human
No indeed it won't! I told Ted I wouldn't consider giving that up. We're not going to be married until June.
gpt
Then I'll have you three months more! cried Linda, joyfully.
human
Whoopee! Long enough to finish our course here. After that we probably should have been separated anyway, because you know I expect to take a job.
gpt
You have to be my maid-of-honor, Louise informed her.
human
That will be a job for you.
gpt
The kind of job Aunt Emily would approve of. I'll be tickled to death, of course, Lou.
human
I'm going home at Easter, continued the other girl,
gpt
I thought something of going over to New Castle, to see how my Bellanca is coming along. Then I'd go back to Spring City for the rest of the time.
human
Suppose Bess Hulbert beats us, and our trip has to be canceled, remarked Louise.
gpt
Aren't you taking an awful chance letting her off?
human
Yes, but I'd hate myself if I prosecuted her just because I was afraid of her as a rival. In fact, that's the very reason I'm inclined to let her off--because of the sporting side of the thing. If she weren't planning to compete for this prize, I'm sure I'd have her held for smuggling, anyway, for it would be a difficult matter to prove that she did something to injure my plane.
gpt
You're a queer girl, Linda, observed her companion.
human
You can be so much more impersonal than most of our sex. I admire you for it.
