“Forgive me, but you’re Ringo Oohoshi, the genius inventor, right?”

—Tsukasa Mikogami appeared.

Back then he was just some boy in my class who’d randomly started talking to me during break time. I had always been shy, and the incident with my mother had only served to worsen that tendency. I thought it best to simply ignore him.

Undaunted, Tsukasa pressed on anyway and placed something on top of my desk.

“Actually, I have an important favor I wanted to ask of you.”

It was a silver pocket watch. Tsukasa motioned to it as he spoke.

“It seems to be broken. Even when I wind it up, the hands don’t turn.”

“………”

So what? I thought.

“I’d like you to repair it.”

“………?!”

Honestly, I glowered at him. Who did this guy think he was, coming up and demanding things of me?

“Should be a simple task for an inventor of your caliber, right?”

That much was true. It probably wouldn’t have even taken ten minutes. I could’ve had it done before the next class started.

What I wanted to know was, why did I have to?

“Please. It was a birthday gift from my father, and it means a lot to me.”

“………………”

Awkward as I was, I couldn’t bring myself to voice my objections. Overwhelmed, I gave up and agreed to fix the watch. I assumed that the sooner I got it done, the sooner I’d be rid of him.

Bringing the little thing home, I went into my workshop for the first time in a year and made the necessary repairs. The watch wasn’t in the best shape, so it took a little longer than I’d expected, but in the end, I successfully got it working again.

The next day, I returned it to him.

“Thanks, you’re a lifesaver.”

No sooner had he thanked me than—

“And a beautiful job done, at that. You really seem to have a knack for this stuff. Given your skill, I think you’d be able to fix this MP3 player, too.”

“…?!”

—he made another outrageous request.

“I’m counting on you.”

In the end, I caved to the pressure and accepted. It didn’t stop after that second repair job, either. Whenever I finished one of his requests, he’d just make another one ad infinitum.

I was taken aback and had to wonder if this Tsukasa had no shame. My social anxieties kept me from refusing, however. Reluctantly, I fulfilled every one of his demands.

Sometimes, I didn’t have the tools or parts necessary, and other times, I didn’t know how to fix whatever it was and had to learn from scratch. For example, there was one time Tsukasa brought a speaker for me to restore.

It was set up in such a way that the speaker’s material and the construction of its frame allowed for fine control of the audio output. Fixing the inner components alone wasn’t enough to rebuild it.

I used one of my old connections to get in touch with the manufacturer, but that was only the first step. Even once they sent me the frequency response data, many of the speaker’s parts were out of production, so I had to re-create them myself.
