Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #Childhood Friend(3)

Some cute little one shots that are nice, easy reading. I wasn’t a big fan of the first pair. A relationship starting with cheating doesn’t bode well for trust in the relationship. My favourite was the last one. That pair had the most intensity for each other which was sweetly combined with a solid friendship.

Mahoko and Chise are lifelong best friends. Born on the same day, their families living next door to each other, the two grew up alongside each other. So it was natural for Manoko to have a crush on Chise. Sadly for her though, the feminine boy who took her hairbands was gay. He even stole her first boyfriend and she should hate him for that, indeed sometimes she does. But their bond is too deep. So when Chise kisses her, Mahoko is stunned and confused. Who is this possessive, masculine guy? I liked the story. I always enjoy reading about possessive partners in love and this pair seemed destined to always be together, in this life and beyond. Cute. The second story was unfinished, though it looked promising. The translation team was a bit off with some pages uploading and had sloppy cuts which was a shame.

Once high school best friends, Shino and Kazuto now work as detectives for the island country Sakura. Shino works in the city branch, and much to his annoyance, Kazuto works the regional office. A new case has them working together, much to Shino’s dismay and Kazuto’s delight. You see, Kazuto is crazily obsessed with Shino. The yandere detective is dangerous to any who would stand in his way with Shino, and even to some degree, towards Shino himself. Enjoy this story with full understanding that this possessive and obsessed lover would kill anyone who tried to take Shino away from him. And Shino? He just can’t quite push Kazuto away..
