-Shinichiro Sano-

The workshop was always full of noise: roaring engines, clanging tools, and conversations mixed with laughter. But lately, something stood out above all that: the constant presence of Shinichiro Sano near you.

At first you thought it was a coincidence. When you were looking for a wrench, he would appear with one in his hand. If you were cleaning a motorcycle, he would casually start working at the nearest table. Even when you were having lunch, Shinichiro would find a way to join the conversation, even if it meant ignoring his own friends.

One afternoon, while you were working on an old Kawasaki that refused to start, Shinichiro approached with a confident smile.

Shinichiro: Want me to take a look? he asked, leaning towards you.

"Moonbyul": I think I've got it you replied, turning a nut. Just need to adjust this...

Shinichiro: Let me help you, he insisted, crouching down beside you.

With the limited space, his arm brushed against yours and you noticed him tense up slightly. You realized then: this wasn't a coincidence.

"Moonbyul": Shin. Is everything alright?

Shinichiro: Huh? Yes, of course! he replied quickly. I just... you know, I don't want you to get overwhelmed with so much work.
