My Favorite Ni-chome (Makoto-kun’s Mama Inauguration)

At "Lock On," a gay bar I frequent, my favorite, Makoto-kun, has been appointed as the new Mama.

In Ni-chome, taking on a managerial role usually means a whirlwind of greetings to various bars and attending Mama meetings, making for a hectic schedule. But Makoto-kun showed no sign of stress—he just smiled serenely, as carefree as ever.

The Mama meetings in Ni-chome are well-known, sometimes even attracting prominent bar owners from Osaka and Nagoya. I wonder what they discuss. One day, I’d love to find out.

At Makoto-kun’s inauguration event, there was a celebratory lottery. The lucky winners received a free shot of tequila or vodka—or even a kiss from Makoto-kun!

So, what did I win? Come ask me and find out!
