2-dome no Koi wa Usotsuki

For ten years, Sumi has harbored a deep, unrequited love for Natsuki. What began as an innocent infatuation at eighteen has quietly consumed her twenties, leaving the now twenty-eight-year-old cosmetics employee with little to show for her romantic life beyond a decade of silent yearning. Her routine existence takes an unexpected turn when her workplace introduces a unique new dining concept: a café staffed entirely by charming young men. Among them is Satsuki, Natsuki’s younger brother, who is fully aware of Sumi’s long-standing devotion to his sibling and delights in teasing her about it without mercy. Despite his playful provocations, Satsuki proves to be more than just a nuisance. When Sumi is blindsided by the devastating news that Natsuki is preparing to marry someone else, Satsuki steps in to help her maintain her dignity during a moment of profound heartbreak. His unexpected kindness forces Sumi to question his true intentions. As the boundaries between mockery and genuine affection begin to blur, she finds herself caught in a complicated emotional web, left wondering whether Satsuki’s growing presence in her life signals the start of something real or if he is simply playing another cruel game.
