MÁSHA. That's all rubbish. People say quite truly that you're an empty  
fellow.  
FÉDYA. What can I say to you? That your words hurt me, you know without  
being told!  
MÁSHA. Nothing hurts you!  
FÉDYA. You know that the one joy I have in life is your love.  
MÁSHA. My love--yes; but yours doesn't exist.  
FÉDYA. All right. I'm not going to assure you. Besides, what's the good?  
You know!  
MÁSHA. Fédya; why torment me?  
FÉDYA. Which of us torments?  
MÁSHA [cries] You are unkind!  
FÉDYA [goes up and embraces her] Másha! What's it all about? Stop that.  
One must live, and not whine. It doesn't suit you at all, my lovely one!  
MÁSHA. You do love me?
