SUMMER VACATION

CHAPTER 33 OF THE MANGA

( Part 1 of the Karin Becomes Suspicious Story Arc )

## Previously

Like everyone else, Minami Maki has their good days and their bad days. On the good days, they transform to Karii Maki and go out and have some fun. Or she will stay inside and treat herself to a new hairstyle, then show it to a friend. It can be so much fun when you are a teenage girl with a positive outlook on life. But the bad days are like hell in a handbasket. Like when a girl is not feeling well at that time of the month. Or when a transgender teenager is so bored and 'down in the dumps' that they don't even want to transition, and they stay as their unnatural perceived birth gender.

## Chapter Overview

Male Minami is 'bored out of their gourd' ! They don't even want to transition to that of a teenage girl, supposedly it's too hot outside. So male Minami calls around to find something to do. He ends up going out with Chiyoko; they both end up at an anime themed café. Chiyoko is collecting the anime premiums for the anime *Pretty Sugar*, so she is happy to be at this particular café. The two have drinks and a meal together. My, my ! This so looks like a date together. And that is what Karin immediately thinks of when she sees the two of them at the table, from the sidewalk of the café !

## This Chapter's Story

Male Minami is all fired up and ready to go ! This is the first day of summer vacation. However, he is laying on his bed, hands behind his head, in his bedroom, fully clothed, with nothing to do ! Boring !!! He recalls that Chiyoko said that there will be no club activities until Summer Training Camp later. He thinks to text Naoya, but Naoya texted back that he is busy doing other things. Minami checks with Karin, but she is out with another girl, both doing something together. Maybe Chiyoko is not busy. " Sure! ", is her reply.

That afternoon, male Minami meets Chiyoko at an outdoor plaza. Chiyoko is dressed in a 'V' neck short sleeve shirt and a pleated mini-skirt. Minami is in an athletic shirt with an unbuttoned button-up-the-front shirt over it, and pants. Chiyoko asks why is he in male mode ? He simply states that it is too hot to wear a bra and go out as a girl. They decide to go somewhere and get cold drinks.

The two end up in an anime themed café. Chiyoko explains that many cafés are offering promotions of various anime series. This café is promoting the *Pretty Sugar* anime with collectable drink coasters. The coasters are handed out randomly; Chiyoko has seven of an eight item collection series. The cute waitress comes with their drinks, and hands out two coasters to put the drinks on. But no putting a coaster down and getting it wet for Chiyoko ! Her heartbeats come up into her mouth as she anticipates what this coaster might be. Chiyoko's hopes and dreams go down in flames as she does not get the one coaster she needs to complete her collection ! But what kind of coaster did Minami get ? The Yellow One !

" THAT'S IT !!! THAT'S THE ONE I NEED !!! ", frantically screams Chiyoko, as she slams her hands on the table and leans over towards Minami. Quickly, Chiyoko scoots around the table to be next to Minami. She puts her hands on his shoulders, and with her face so, so close to Minami, pleads with him to trade coasters. Minami's immediate reaction is to notice how pleasant and sweet Chiyoko smells ! Then, at such close range, Minami can't help but notice Chiyoko's ample, plump bust, with the 'V' of her shirt showing a generous portion of obvious cleavage. Minami trades coasters. As he takes a sip of his drink, Chiyoko is practically in tears. Nevertheless, Minami tells themselves that they, in girl mode, knows that they have a decent cleavage, but that pales in comparison to that of Chiyoko's.

After she has calmed down somewhat, Chiyoko wants to order from the menu. Is she hungry ? No, she already had lunch. But a large anime sticker comes with each meal ! Given such uncontrolled passion for *Pretty Sugar* anime items, Chiyoko, practically crying, orders a meal. Minami wants to know if she can eat that much ? Probably not, but Chiyoko, with a devious look on her face, says that Minami can eat the rest ! The plates are eventually emptied, but Chiyoko can't eat another bite. She already looks like she might be pregnant ! At least, she also got the last sticker that she needed for her sticker collection. It is left to Minami to finish up by enjoying the parfait desert.

Outside, Karin is done with her shopping, and is walking home alone. She passes by the *Pretty Sugar Cafe.* Absentmindedly, she looks through the picture window. Why, there is Minami and Chiyoko enjoying themselves together !!! That's Minami-kun and sempai ............ together .............. like on a date ......... Shoot ! ........ What gives ............ ?!?!?

## Chapter Lookback and Commentary

It seems that usually level-headed Karin Saku is about to jump to conclusions. Happens to everyone at one time or another.

If male Minami would have known that they would have the chance to eat a sweet, oh so girly parfait, they tell themselves that they would have come as female Karii Maki !

Manga Fan's Commentary

Why did childhood friend [Karin] show up so f\*cking soon? I wanted to see more M[inami] x President for at least 2-3 more chapters.

TotallyNotT3mmie / 1 year ago
I love this manga, seeing stuff from the prospective of someone who can change sex at will is very interesting.

Fari / 1 year ago
Yeah seeing them [Minami] as a guy does feel very foreign at this point.

Linkark07 / 1 year ago
By now seeing him as a guy seems bizarre.

Kisato / 1 year ago
This guy [Minami] is peak genderfluid.
