"President Pei, step back."
She held up her camera, but he took another step closer.
For three months, they met only on weekends. No questions about where the other had been, no talk of the future.
She was the one who proposed the arrangement. She didn't want a place in his life that could turn into "girlfriend" at any moment.
Until she received confirmation of a six-month residency in Lyon.
"Pei Xu, I'm leaving in ten weeks."
His grip on her hand tightened, but he said nothing.
Only later did she learn that after that weekend, he cleared every weekend from his schedule.
Later still, he was the one who ended their relationship.
"I agreed to the arrangement," he said. "Now I want to call it off."
She packed away her toothbrush and calmly drew a line between them.
He withdrew all his tenderness and put the choice back in her hands.
This time, she was the one who walked toward him.
