Please! he repeated.
gpt
I promise. Indeed, I promise. Forgive me.
human
I asked you to be my friend, she said.
gpt
I meant it, you know. How could you? It was not kind.
human
No--but forgive me,
gpt
I suppose I must, she said at last.
human
But I shall never feel sure of you again. How can I?
gpt
I promise. You will believe me, not to-day, perhaps, nor to-morrow, but soon. I will be just what I have always been. I will never do anything to offend you again.
human
You promise me that? Solemnly?
gpt
Yes. It is a promise. I will keep it. I will be your friend always. Give me something to do for you. It will make it easier.
human
What can I ask you to do? I shall never dare to speak to you about my life again.
gpt
I think you will, when you see that I am just as I used to be. And you forgive me, quite?
human
Yes. I must. We must forget to-day. It must be as though it had never happened. Will you forget it?
gpt
I will try.
human
If you try, you can succeed. Now get up. Be reasonable.
