The Natalie Pinch (なつきのピンチ, Natsuki no Pinchi, "Natsuki's Pinch") is the one hundred and eighty-first chapter of Initial D.
Plot[]
Shiraishi tells Natsuki that she's jealous of how much she seems to be enjoying her job. Natsuki tells her she'll take her out for some fun after exams.
Elsewhere in the school, Itsuki asks Takumi if he has any plans for Valentine's, as he intends to come in just in case he gets any last minute confessions. Takumi finds it funny, and Itsuki tells him that he's lucky he's popular. Itsuki reminds him that Natsuki is likely to give him some chocolate anyway, but Takumi isn't sure.
Natsuki leaves the school, and the wind lifts her skirt, causing her to flash some other students. As she walks home, she is called out to by Miki, who offers her a lift. She declines at first, but he insists. He tells her that he's back from Tokyo over spring break. He checks her out, and tells her that the two of them should get back together, as the both of them are single. Natsuki tells him to pull over, which he assumes is out of anger, but they are outside the gas station. He offers to pick her up after work, but she tells him that she doesn't want to continue what they had, and that she's already interested in someone else. Miki recognises Takumi heading into the gas station, and realises they're co-workers.
