Practice · 3 min
Record Yuki's line "My current lease runs until the fifteenth. Would you consider the middle of March instead?" and compare it with the model. The reason comes first, then the request. Giving the reason before you ask makes the other person more likely to say yes, so keep that order when you practice.
