Her doubt only served to be a major blow to his self-confidence. He was able to pride himself to be capable of fixing most anything, to be denied the permission to repair something might as well have shattered his oh-so sensitive ego. ❝But– but–❞ he manages to sputter out, before gritting his teeth. If he could build a functioning television from scratch– why couldn’t he fix something as simple as a camera? ❝But I could fix it if you’d jus’ give me a chance–!❞
MAKING A FACE like that almost made Mahiru wonder if she just turned him down or insulted him and his entire family. Was he seriously taking it that hard?
“ THERE’S... NO WAY I can give you a chance. This one’s way too old and fragile. Besides, you’ve never fixed a camera before, right? You could totally end up making it way worse than it already is; or you could break it by accident, which would cost me way more money than getting it fixed. Although... the repair fee is still a lot... ”
IT WASN’T THAT Mahiru was picking on him or anything. He knew that, right? She just couldn’t take any chances with this.
