My Girlfriend Who Is Older Than Me Teases Me When I’m Working At A Bar, But Maybe Because Of Alcohol, Her Face Turns Bright Red Very Quickly.

erful older brother… I have to be strong because I’m the older sister… So, I’m envious that you can rely on him…”

For Ai, who doesn’t have an older brother or sister, the only people she can rely on are her parents.
It’s natural for her to feel the desire to rely on an older brother or sister.

“I have an older brother, but he’s always nagging and I wish I could switch him out… but maybe it’s pitiful to say that! Ahaha.”

“Well, you have to think about the bad parts of your brother to find them…”

“Right? He’s so kind that not even a single complaint comes out.
And Ume-chan’s older brother is so cool.
Right, Ai?”

While showing a sly smile, Natsumi brings up the topic to Ai.

“W-well… that’s… that’s…”

Ai is weak when it comes to this kind of topic.
Too weak.
Just with this simple conversation, her ears are turning red.
Natsumi had that meaningful smile because she understood this weakness

“Yes! Even Ai admits that her older brother is something to be proud of.
To be honest, I’m looking forward to seeing Ume-chan’s older brother on weekends.
Right, Ai?”

“Uh… uhh… that’s…”

Natsumi quickly follows up.
Ai lowers her head and starts fidgeting with embarrassment.

“He’s apparently going to the very smart South Public University., and he has a good personality, so he definitely has a girlfriend… If he didn’t, it would be strange.”

“Y-yes.”

Ai nods slightly in agreement to Natsumi’s theory.

“There are probably about 10 ex-girlfriends.”

“… nodding, nodding.”

This is Natsumi’s theory, and Ai agrees with her.

“Hey, it sounds like he’s switching girlfriends back and forth…but Nii would never do something like that.”

“Sorry, sorry.
I worded that poorly.
What I meant to say was that your nii-chan is popular!”

“… nodding, nodding.”

Neither Natsumi nor Ai have said anything bad about Toma throughout the conversation.
In fact, they have been praising him.

“Well, I don’t feel bad about it when you put it that way.
Nii would definitely be happy if he heard that.”

“H-Hold on a second.
Don’t tell him about this conversation! I would be so embarrassed if he found out! I think Ai feels the same way! This is a girls’ talk, so let’s keep it a secret!”

“Okay…Um, Ume-chan…Please don’t tell him…”

Natsumi, whose tanned skin has turned slightly pink, looks flustered, but Ai is bowing her head earnestly, begging her not to tell him.

“I understand! Instead, let’s definitely hang out this weekend.”

“Okay…!”

“Of course!”

After finishing their conversation, the three of them finally start to eat their bento boxes.

Ume puts a piece of tamagoyaki in her mouth with her chopsticks.

“So, Nii was highly praised…Well, I guess that’s not surprising…”

She thinks to herself that it’s not like anyone is going to ask her about it anyway.
