Claire felt very sorry and didn't know how to reply for a while.
She needed to refuse him but she didn't want to hurt him.
"Claire." Tristan's voice was soft. He proposed, "Let's try to date for a month, if, after this month, you found | am not the one for you, I'll let you go, okay?" He was discussing with her, he loved her, and this was the biggest concession he could make.
"Tristan." Claire was in a serious mood, she said, "You are very nice, really, you are very, very good..." "If | am so good, why did you reject me?" Tristan asked.

His brow furrowed.
"Yeah." In order to make him give up completely, she added a detail, "He took my first kiss." Tristan couldn't accept it. He had a feeling of a complete loss.
Hearing the word 'first kiss', his heart seemed to throb.

The string deep in his heart was broken.

This tit was Rowan.
Staring at the word "Dr. Watson", she quickly calmed herself down and answered with a little expectation, "Hi." "Who were you calling?" Rowan asked softly, "The line has been busy." Claire was slightly startled, not good at lying, "Tristan called." And Tristan liked Claire. Rowan knew it.
But he had no sense of crisis because Tristan's confession failed.
She didn't fall in love with Tristan at first sight, so she probably never will.

"But | don't like him." Claire replied, "I just want to be with you." After a moment of silence, Rowan smiled, he was very happy, "What tdo you usually sleep? Do you stay up late to write ?" After changing the subject, it was tfor the two of us.
"lI don't stay up late to write but check my phone." Claire replied easily, "Young people." "Listen." He said to her very seriously, "From now on, you are not allowed to stay up late, you must lie down and rest before 11 o'clock." "Get it." Rowan liked such an obedient girl very much. He said to her, "I feel that your hands are cold. You need exercise. Can you persist?" "Will you exercise with me?" Claire couldn't help being coquettish.
"Sure." He hardly thought about it before saying, "Then get up at six every morning, and | will pick you up at 6:20. Let's jog along the embankment, and then have breakfast together."
