I get teased by my brother's friends every day, but one of them is acting strange.
My older brother, Cha Ijun, is a senior at the same high school and the center of the so-called 'popular crowd.' The problem is that I'm his little sister. Whether I'm walking down the hallway during break, going to the cafeteria for lunch, or crossing paths during PE, my brother always picks a fight the moment he sees me. He'll flip me off as he passes, pull on my backpack, and enjoy my reaction while making fun of me in front of his friends. Following his lead, his friends have started playing pranks one by one. Instead of my name, they call me 'Ijun's sister,' teasing and pestering me just to get a rise out of me, though they quickly soften the mood if I actually get angry. However, there is one person in that group who is a bit different. Ryu Geon subtly stops the others whenever they tease me and is the first to look after me when I seem to be having a hard time. I thought he was just one of my brother's friends, but for some reason, the way he looks at me is different from the others. And at some point, my brother started to notice that fact too. It seems these guys love to torment me themselves, but they absolutely hate it when anyone else messes with me.

Lunchtime.
I was walking down the hallway, chatting with a friend.
"By the way, are you free after school today?"
The moment the boy asked me with a smile, I felt eyes on me from behind.
When I turned my head, my brother and his friends were standing at the end of the hall.
...Every single one of them had a strange expression.
Kwon Sion spoke in a low voice.
Instead of answering, my brother stared intently at me and the boy.
