Chapter 136 – It’s Okay to Speak Comfortably
“Ugh… Why are you wet…?”
At dusk, when the red afternoon sun has completely set and the stars and moon are clearly visible.
I glance back at Yunbyeol, who is walking with me toward the library illuminated by streetlights.
He holds the hem of a large oversized shirt and pulls it down, hiding his short jean shorts.
He looked like a child who urinated and tried hard not to be caught.
I noticed this a long time ago. Should I tease you a little?
“…Are you okay? You were walking a little slow earlier, but the heat hasn’t gone away yet…”
“Oh, no! It’s okay…”
When I cautiously approach her and talk to her, pretending to be concerned, she gets startled and runs away.
Her wet crotch was evidence that she had become aroused by the scent of a man she did not know and who was not her sister.
She secretly suppresses her laughter as she blushes and runs away with her sloppy steps from her humiliation and confusion.
It doesn’t even try to touch my touch or smell my body odor.
Go Yun-byeol’s appearance, desperately avoiding eye contact, was the complete opposite of yesterday, when she was confident and shameless.
“Well, anyway, how did you become friends with my sister…?”
Yunbyeol’s efforts to change the topic in her own way to break this awkward situation.
I wanted to tease them a little more, but since we’re almost at the library, I guess I’ll let them loose.
“I like watching movies and reading books. I looked for a club where I could do both, and I joined.
The next year, Yoon Sol came. “We had similar tastes in books, so we became friends as we talked.”
“Ah…”
“Isn’t that surprising? I heard you like books because you look like this.”
“Oh, no! I don’t think so…!”
Yunbyeol waved her hand as if embarrassed by my self-torture, and her guard had clearly relaxed.
If it were Yunbyeol before she smelled it, she wouldn’t have even been able to mix in puns like this.
It seems that he is not yet aware that the man named Choi Woo-joo is becoming more and more like his older sister.
“Haha, it’s just a joke, so don’t be surprised. Hey, it’s here now.”
“Ah, the library… Ah, sister!”
After dusk, we arrived in front of the library at the beginning of the night.
I could see two silhouettes standing in front of a building with lights on until late at night.
Yunbyeol, who, like me, immediately recognized the silhouette, waved her hand at the shadow.
“Huh…? Yunbyeol, why are you so late? I can’t even contact you…”
“Ah, um… That just reminded me of something to do… But it’s nothing for you to worry about!”
The shadow that walked quickly up to the streetlight shining on us was Yunsol.
Yunsol immediately grabs her hand, probably worried about his younger sister who hasn’t had any contact with her until it’s late.
“Oh, so the universe came too? Did you wait for me?”
Another shadow walking behind her under the light with a faint smile was Hye-mi’s older sister.
“I came to pick you up. You haven’t had dinner yet, and you must be hungry.”
“Hehe~ I was so busy working that I couldn’t even eat lunch!”
Hye-mi and I exchange natural conversations and link arms affectionately.
My sister and I noticed Yunbyeol’s gaze secretly peeking from her side, and the two of us –
“Chuhup…♡”
We lightly kissed our lips.
“Huh, sister? Anyway, here…”
“What do you think? Is this okay?”
I pretended to be embarrassed, and Hye-mi put on an aggressive appearance as always.
A short skit with only two actors, looking back at the audience of only two people watching this,
“…”
“Ah, wow, uh, Hye, Hye-mi and Woo-joo are dating…?”
Yunbyeol’s eyes widened as if slightly startled, and then he seemed lost in thought.
Yunsol was so surprised that he was seen stuttering twice as much as usual.
In response to the satisfied response from the audience, Hyemi looked up at me and smiled slightly.
“Now that I think about it, I haven’t told Yunsol yet. Yeah, it’s been like that for a while. Hehe…♡”
A smokescreen to completely remove any remaining wariness of Yunbyeol.
It was a very simple appeal to say that you were not interested in your sister.
But this will be enough.
“… Let’s go eat quickly! Yunsol and her younger brother come too! I’ll buy something for you today.”
“H-huh…? Since when is Hye-mi?! Um, wait…! Come with me!”
Thanks to Yoon Sol, who hurriedly chases after his older sister who was quickly ahead of him, Yun Byeol and I are left alone.
Yunbyeol, who was biting her lip in silence, glanced at me and whispered quietly.
“…I was going to say something earlier, but please speak comfortably, brother.”
She looks exactly like Yoon Sol, but with a different impression. She smiles for the first time on her face.
She smiled shyly, avoided her gaze, and ran after her sisters, who were far away from her.
“Our pepperoni blood cream pasta and two draft beers… Will Yunsol and her younger brother drink?”
“Oh, no… I just need Coke, so it’s okay.”
“You can’t drink yet? I’ll drink.”
I frequented a pizza place in a downtown area, and when I came in after smoking a cigarette, I saw a group of people ordering.
Unlike the chilly streets at night, the store was warm and she took off her outer clothes, hung them on a chair, and sat down.
“If you drank it yesterday, are you drinking it today too, sister?”
“Please look at me~ It’s been hard for me to prepare for graduation and help prepare for the festival!
“I’m doing my juniors a favor and drinking it in my spare time, so don’t say anything~”
“S-sorry, sister…”
“Hmm? What? I like playing, so I’m helping, so what?”
Hye-mi, who reacts like an older woman while gulping down the beer that comes out first.
Well, it’s almost September and it’s time for everyone to get busy with the upcoming fall festival.
I’ve been to the Spring Festival before, but this is my first time attending the Fall Festival because of the military, and I’m looking forward to it.
“…Yunbyeol, you should come visit too. Your sister decided to cosplay.”
“Huh?! Your sister is cosplaying…?”
“Woah, space oppa…!”
Our club is a club whose main activities are reading and watching movies.
As a result, it naturally became a place where many introverted friends gathered.
Maybe that’s why I often come up with booth-related ideas, like writing poetry or watching movies…
Since the ideas were not very suitable for a lively festival, Hye-mi eventually came forward.
‘Let’s cosplay characters from your favorite movies and novels!’,
‘Let’s take pictures and sell books or movie goods that each person’s cosplay came from.’
Everyone nodded at Hyemi’s idea, which was quite good and fun.
Except Yun Sol.
“There is a female protagonist in Yoon Sol’s favorite novel, and that female protagonist…”
“A maid…! So you’re saying she’s cosplaying as a maid?!”
Yunbyeol nods her head excitedly, as if she knows at least who her sister’s favorite character is.
Hye-mi, embarrassed by Yun-byeol’s excitement to the point of madness, nods her head hesitantly.
“No, it’s not like a revealing maid uniform…!”
“No? Yunsol made the size and design to fit your body perfectly.
Wouldn’t it be nice if a lot of people came to see what you were doing? “Isn’t that better for her brother too?”
“Hye, Hyemi unnie…!”
Since it was Yun Sol’s maid outfit, I wasn’t very impressed.
You may not remember Hye-mi or Yoon Sol, but they were both dressed up in the bed of desire.
Still, I think it would be fun to see my sister and Yoon Sol dressed in such slutty outfits in their daily lives.
“For your information, I decided to be a bunny girl. It’s from a movie I watched with Woo Joo before.
“I am a spy who infiltrated a casino, and the universe is a spy cosplay from another country…”
“Can I go too?! I’ll definitely go and have fun!”
“…Oh my, you don’t care about us…”
Yunbyeol, who is already extremely excited, is running wild alone without even listening to Hye-mi’s words.
Sol-Yoon is unable to say anything, covering her newly red face with both hands.
I’m squinting as this is the first time I’ve heard that my cosplay has been decided.
In a noisy atmosphere, food that could change the topic was finally brought out, and we began a hectic meal with alcohol.
“…Um, that Yunbyeol…? You’re drunk right now, come to your senses…”
“Sweet, sniff, sniff… Hyaaa…♡ Sister Mia, yesterday I was…”
She nods her head as she looks at Yunbyeol, who is hugging her sister sitting next to her with her bright red face and smelling it.
She confidently ordered drinks, so I thought she could drink better than her sister, and even her drinking capacity seemed to be similar.
In a twist, she puts the remaining pizza crust in her mouth and laughs.
“I guess your little brother doesn’t drink well either?”
“Huh? Oh, no… Yunbyeol drinks a lot…? She even drinks three bottles of soju by herself.”
What? You drink much better than me.
All Yunbyeol drank was about half a glass of beer.
If I drank 3 bottles of soju, I wouldn’t get drunk this much…
“Oh, that’s not possible… Yunbyeol, let’s go home now. Sister and brother, we’ll go in first…”
Yunsol gestures to stand up while holding her younger sister, who is sobbing with her open eyes.
At that gesture, something along with the pleasant smell of shampoo flew from her fluttering hair.
It was the smell of cigarettes mixed with the savory smell of pizza and alcohol, and the smell of my clothes.
When she turned her head towards the direction from which the wind came, there was a chair next to Yunbyeol where I had put my clothes.
This can’t be…
“…”
I sent a small glance to Hye-mi.
She is a great saint and can read her master’s thoughts──
“No, Yunsol! We’re okay, so just let us sit here and rest for a bit.
“Yoonbyeol’s condition doesn’t look good at all… If she stands up and takes a taxi right now, she might throw up.”
“Oh, that’s right…”
Naturally, I will block Yoon Sol-i and make way for her.
“Rather than that, why don’t you and I go to the convenience store and buy some hangover cure? Woo-joo can take care of us in the meantime.”
“Yes, I’m fine, so please take your time.”
“Yes… I’m really sorry, Woo-ju oppa…”
Hye-mi, who is looking at me and Yoon-byeol with a grin, takes Yoon Sol-i out of her store.
Strangely enough, the only people left at the corner table were me and Yunbyeol, who was drunk on something.
“Okay then…”
“Huh…? Where did your sister go…?”
I approach Yunbyeol, who is leaning her head in the corner and muttering.
I took out the cigarette-smelling windbreaker that was hanging on the chair.
