After a brief exchange at the photo studio, they entered a nearby cafe and sipped their coffee.

Amidst the awkward atmosphere, they couldn’t fully enjoy the sweet taste of the coffee.

Both me and my brother.

Lost in thoughts from earlier, I absentmindedly brushed my lips and noticed my brother doing the same.

“Oh.”

“Pfft…!”

We burst into laughter.

It was amazing how we had the same thoughts, and it felt so good to be on the same page.

“Hehe… Was it a bit sweet?”

“Yeah… It was sweet like sugar.”

“That’s too much.”

“Yeah… but still happy.”

Sipping on our coffee again, we continued our conversation in a more relaxed atmosphere.

I knew about 90% of what my brother liked and maybe around 70% of what he disliked.

Other personal information like birthdays or ages.

I hadn’t revealed much about myself, but my brother seemed to know a lot about me, which made me excited as we conversed.

“Brother.”

“Yes.”

“I really love you.”

“I love you too.”

I leaned my head on my brother’s broad shoulders.

It’s okay to take things slowly.

Just like this. I hope we continue walking down the path of happiness.

“Take care, brother. Don’t get hurt.”

“Yes.”

“Hmph… Chu… Haa… ♡”

I welcomed the slightly warmer morning with a short kiss at the front door.

I hugged my brother to shield my warm face trying to blame the heating.

“Hehe… Nyeh ♡… Have a safe trip…”

“Yes. I’ll be back.”

It’s like my mind is producing sugar non-stop this afternoon.

Wasn’t the first kiss with my brother?

Why haven’t I improved my skills?

My brother started initiating physical affection after our time at the photo studio.

Whenever we were alone, he always gave me a brief kiss.

For me, this could only mean one thing – pure joy.

Two weeks have already passed by… I’m so happy.

“Oh. I have good news today.”

“Oh really?”

“We should go on a trip together, shouldn’t we?”

Good news, a trip.

The keywords matched perfectly.

“Oh… Ah! Vacation!”

“Yes. I’ll be back.”

“Yes!”

As the front door opened, a slightly warmer breeze entered.

Spring seems to be approaching, albeit slowly.

Let’s have tonkatsu today.

A trip, huh.

This might be a rare opportunity that has come our way after a long time.

Kissing is nice, of course, but…

Intimacy between lovers is even more important.

“Haa… I don’t know.”

Is my brother reaching out to me for this opportunity?

Or does he simply want to go on a normal trip as lovers do?

For now… Yes. I should tempt him. The bed is spacious and comfortable.

So… what should I do? Oh, that.

“Am I being too hasty?”

There isn’t much reason behind fixating on this relationship.

Showing my dependence on my brother.

And I know men like women’s first times.

I was once a man too.

Anyway, the reason I’m fixated on my brother…

Well, calling it fixation might be a bit too extreme.

Let’s just call it affection.

I just hope my brother accepts this affection.

Is there a reason for loving someone?

I love them just because I do.

I think I might need some more help.

“Hehe. Unni~”

“Hello, Jihye~”

“Are you available right now!?”

Asking a woman like her is always a good idea.

Suhyun, who can be considered my idol.

“Oh. I can spare a moment.”

“Hehe. Well… I started dating my brother, oh…”

“Oh. Really!? Congratulations~”

“That, that… the next part is the problem.”

“Hmm? What is it?”

I scratched my head because it was itchy.

My chest felt tight, so I calmed myself with my hands.

“Oh… I want to do it with oppa! Please recommend some underwear!!”

…Was I really saying this?

After saying it, I felt embarrassed and let out a sigh.

“……”

“Hel…hello…?”

Even though I made a dry sound, the speaker remained silent.

“Umm… Haa… Ji-hye.”

Through the speaker, I could hear my sister’s deep sigh.

“Yes, sure….”

“Can you ask Sua about this…?”

“Yes, sure!?”

“Ugh… How does a virgin know about this…!”

“…Oops… I’m sorry!”

With a slight sobbing sound, the call was soon disconnected.

“…I messed up.”

I should visit my sister later.

Macarons… It seems like buying macarons would be nice.

Since my sister likes sweet things.

I just lightly touched her, but it felt like I deeply pierced her painful spot and hit it with a hammer.

I feel sorry now.

“Hello?”

“Sua… Sister?”

“Oh… What!! Ji-hye!!”

Apologies aside, it’s time for a trip.

No, it’s time to choose lingerie for the bed during the trip.

Explain the situation again and then…

“I’m planning to buy underwear.”

“Ah… Okay. Is it the right time now?”

“Um… Yes, that’s right?”

My sister, perhaps an experienced person, immediately understood and got to the point.

“Then get ready and come out. Send me the address. I’ll pick you up.”

“No… You don’t have to do that…”

“If your boyfriend wants to find good clothes that will impress Ji-hye, wouldn’t he need to see them in person?”

“Oh… I’ll get ready.”

I complied immediately.

Sorry, Suhyun unnie.

I will ask a good older brother for help later….

Experience really makes a difference…!

“Dress nicely~”

Suddenly, all the household chores were done.

Women are truly great at multitasking, especially when it comes to thorny tasks.

At the apartment entrance, a car in light blue with a red stripe around it, looking quite expensive compared to the logo, blinked its hazard lights and stood next to me.

“Oh… Unnie, hello…!?”

“Wow… Ji-hye! Thank you so much for calling me!”

When you need help, you must thank the person who took the time to help you.

There are only kind people around me.

“No, I should be thankful for the help, so if you say thank you first…”

“Okay okay. Let’s go first. I have so many things I want to do.”

“Oh, okay.”

Her urgent tone made me hurry as well, and I got into the car.

“Phew… Should I step on it?”

“…What?”

Oh no.

It feels like déjà vu.

Vroom! The engine roared!

A significant engine noise, something popping like popcorn, resonated inside the car.

“Let’s go!”

“Aaahh!!”

Realizing that couples can resemble each other isn’t always a good thing.

“Phew… Should have driven more slowly…?”

“Uh… Yes. Of course… right.”

Originally, there’s a sound you hear when you get a driver’s license.

Whether you’re an 80-year-old or a 20-year-old, once you take the wheel, there’s no order.

“Oh… You’re firm.”

“Of course…!! Our oppa shouldn’t go to heaven alone without me.”

“Right… I’ll drive safely, as Ji-hye said.”

She spoke seriously, and I need to fix that.

“Please tell this to our oppa too. It’s something only unnie can do.”

“O-okay….”

“Phew… It’s ‘must.’ I’ll check later.”

“Uh… Alrighhtt….”

As I hugged her and emphasized each word in a whisper, she gave the desired answer.

Physics is indeed the answer.

Hmm… Physics… Is it correct? Could this be enchanting?

“Phew… Let’s go for now.”

Taking the hand of the sister who reaches out, we arrived at the department store from last time, almost like a regular place.

Underwear… It shouldn’t be that expensive, right…?

Since I brought money.

It should be fine.

We went straight to the underwear store and looked around at various underwear.

“…?!??”

“Why? Do you want to wear that?”

“T-this… the price…”

Why would underwear be priced in the tens of thousands of won range?

At traditional markets, a piece of cloth with such an area wouldn’t even cost ten thousand won.

“Oh~ This is the most famous brand among women’s underwear, that’s why.”

“Oh… in that case…”

Just as I was starting to step back and look for another place.

*Tug*

“Where are you going?”

“T-to look at other underwear…”

“Don’t worry. It’s not expensive.”

To me, it’s extremely expensive!

“Okay~ What should we choose?”

Whether she said it or not, my sister was humming as she searched for underwear.

“This! This will be amazing.”

“Wow… W-wow…”

Something is something.

Why did they only cover important areas with a thin layer?

Nice.

“How is it?”

“I-I think I should buy it.”

“Pfft…! Ah~ Ji-hye is so cute~”

“…What’s wrong with me.”

Quietly accepting the underwear.

This underwear, with pretty patterns drawn on various parts in black, almost exposed except for the surrounding area.

Yeah.

It might actually work.

*Sigh…*

Should I try poking a hole somewhere?

This… is expensive.

“Ji-hye, appropriate exposure is sexy, you shouldn’t just criticize it without reason, right?”

“Ah. No! It’s not like that!”

How did you guess that?

“Your eyes are really charming~ It’s like your tail is wagging.”

“Hehe… I think I need to choose something else now…?”

“Sure~”

Is this the power of maturity? I can’t win against this.

“Hmm… Should I choose this? Or that?”

“Pfft!”

“Why!”

Upon seeing the underwear she pointed at, my sister couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing again.

“Ah~ Ji-hye is so lovely….”

“Hehe. Anyway, let’s hurry.”

“No matter how much he wants to do it, the future husband will just keep kissing and kissing. Then he’ll get tired~”

…I can justify this.

Oppa works from Monday to Friday.

So, let’s say he takes 5 days off, from Sunday to the next Sunday.

Then… going on a trip, having fun… lighting up the first night, lighting up the second night… lighting up the third night….

But if we do this, Oppa might get a bit tired.

“I’ll… do it three times a week. Isn’t that reasonable?”

If it’s Oppa… it should be possible… probably.

“Ji-hye… you know things don’t come that easily…”

“……”

At 27 years old….

“Hmm.”

Before going on the trip, I decided that I must buy supplements.
