Chitchat 3Location: The Library – Floor of PhilosophyHokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)You seem rather quiet here.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Hokma_1"Binah(Patron Librarian - Philosophy)What more needs to be said? My role is only to observe.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Binah_1"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)To observe, is it…Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Hokma_2"Binah(Patron Librarian - Philosophy)Indeed so. Some would think that this is merely a form of neglect. I see that you are one of them.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Binah_2"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)I was simply curious. We haven’t had many opportunities to talk with one another.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Hokma_3"Binah(Patron Librarian - Philosophy)There were practically none, were there? Neither you nor I left our respective posts.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Binah_3"Binah(Patron Librarian - Philosophy)Yet now you have the time to visit me of all people for a chat… It must indicate that we are freer than before, able to spare more of our moments.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Binah_4"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)Do you not welcome this change?Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Hokma_4"Binah(Patron Librarian - Philosophy)I’m not quite certain of my sentiments.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Binah_5"Binah(Patron Librarian - Philosophy)Regardless… Have a warm cup of tea, now that you are here.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Binah_6"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)…If you’d be so kind.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Hokma_5"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)Say, have you never tried other types of tea? It appears as though black is all you drink.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Hokma_6"Binah(Patron Librarian - Philosophy)Maybe so. There are enough variants of black tea that I have not bothered in attempting to imbibe other beverages.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Binah_7"Binah(Patron Librarian - Philosophy)Ah, although the azure-maned noble boy insists around the clock that I partake of coffee.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Binah_8"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)It is certainly true that there has been much change. I wouldn’t have expected that he would approach you first to recommend coffee.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Hokma_7"Binah(Patron Librarian - Philosophy)One day, perchance, all of us will come together.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Binah_9"Binah(Patron Librarian - Philosophy)Indeed… It will be quite different from the first time such a gathering took place.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Binah_10"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)I must wonder if the day shall come when we all will engage in casual conversation and share trivial tales. I am rather doubtful of it.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Hokma_8"Binah(Patron Librarian - Philosophy)Yet deep down, you are looking forward to it. Perhaps everyone shares the same feelings.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Binah_11"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)…Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Hokma_9"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)I’ve finished my cup, so I’ll be taking my leave now. I appreciate the hospitality.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Hokma_10"Binah(Patron Librarian - Philosophy)Rendezvous anytime. Tea will always be ready and waiting.Audio: "ch100_Smallstory_ep3_Binah_12"
