Oops, guess I was wrong about the last chapter (Apron). I misinterpreted the final scene as portraying Nakajou as being a trans woman, but it seems it was intended to be interpreted as the manager having forced fem to crossdress as a guy while working in the cafe. This chapter here is just a clarification chapter, briefly going over the previous events from Nakajou's perspective. On the one hand, I guess I appreciate how it made the author's intended interpretation clearer. But on the other hand, it's a very non-story. Like, I want to root for this couple just for the sake of a happy ending, but I also feel like Akane only has extremely superficial reasons for being interested in this girl...so it doesn't really make me happy...The author likes those tearful faces, and drawing those is probably the main motivation behind this story.
