I went to school faster than anyone else, enjoying the morning air seeping into my lungs.

Sigh.

As soon as I entered the old-fashioned leadership department’s executive office, a sense of comfort came over me along with a subtle sense of tension.

Although the two emotions seemed unlikely to mesh, they surprisingly fit together well.

‘As expected, I came first.’

It’s cozy.

Quiet.

I turned on the light, made some hot coffee, and sat down at my desk.

Warm steam rose from the coffee cup, and the faint scent of coffee beans spread throughout the room.

Looking out the window while holding a coffee cup was quite atmospheric.

This year, I feel like I really enjoyed this time.

So, I tried to enjoy this quiet and calm time in the morning.

I just sipped my coffee.

Slap!

“Ah, silly! Damn… !”

It was so hot that my mouth almost burned.

I also spilled some coffee.

“Ugh.”

If I had missed the coffee cup, I would have been in trouble.

‘Who saw this just now?’ ?’

Swish. I quickly looked around.

Fortunately, there was no one there.

My appearance a little while ago was at a level that could easily crack the dignity of the leader.

I couldn’t allow myself to show such foolish behavior to others.

He immediately wiped up the small amount of spilled coffee with a tissue and destroyed the evidence.

I almost looked undignified.

I sat down again in my chair and began to have a leisurely morning.

As if nothing had happened.

“Phew.”

The coffee smell was really good.

“Hello, manager. Have you eaten breakfast?”

“Kkeuheu… !”

For a moment, I almost swallowed my coffee by mistake.

“Kerhu… .”

Fortunately, I was able to swallow it well.

I turned my head towards the door where I heard the voice. An elegant female student with a sword at her waist entered the leadership club room with a kind smile on her face.

It was Oh Baek-seo, the vice-head of the Seondobu.

“Chief couple… , you came early. Good morning.”

“Good morning.”

“This is for breakfast. All you need is a cup of coffee.”

“Isn’t it too meager? Even if it’s not a full meal, it’s better to consume adequate nutrients.”

What’s this guy’s timing?

I’m sure you didn’t hear footsteps in the hallway?

‘It’s as if he was hiding next to the door and then appeared… .’

I had a scary thought, but I quickly shook my head.

There is no way our caring and pure husband and wife would do that.

‘I guess it’s my mood.’

I guess I didn’t notice because I wasn’t paying attention.

So concluded.

The white paper sat down on the sofa and placed the wrapped sandwich on the table.

“Is that morning?”

“Yes, egg mayo sandwich. Lower pressure.”

The white paper took a bite of the sandwich and chewed it well.

… Is it because I’m on an empty stomach?

It looks like a convenience store sandwich, but somehow it looks delicious.

“… Shall I give it to you?”

Eventually, the white paper looked at me with big eyes and asked.

It was such perfect timing that I wondered if he could at least hear my inner thoughts.

As if I had thought in advance, ‘Wouldn’t Woojin think this way?’

“It’s okay. I don’t eat it.”

But I had no intention of eating it just because it looked delicious.

‘It is against dignity to be a mere morsel. As a leading manager, this is behavior that must be strictly avoided.’

It will most likely eat away at my dignity like a rat.

Moreover, since Baek Seo was the top talent in the leadership department and the vice president who was like my right hand man, I couldn’t show her an even more undignified appearance.

“I looked like I wanted to eat it. I can give you a bite. On the condition that you eat the side I ate.”

“I don’t eat it… . And don’t tell weird jokes.”

“Hehe.”

The white paper laughed mischievously.

He must have offered an indirect kiss because he thought I would reject it.

In the game, White Paper was a minor supporting role.

So, I wasn’t sure about his exact personality, but now I knew very well that ‘this is the kind of kid he is.’

“Anyway, again, it’s okay. This is enough for me.”

I held up a cup of coffee from which light steam was rising.

Now, I wanted to show ‘the image of a leading manager full of dignity even when taking his time’.

You can just hold on to the sandwich for a little while and then secretly buy it later.

“Really? Yum.”

White Paper deliberately made an onomatopoeia and took another bite of the sandwich.

I was planning on spending the morning leisurely.

Since I didn’t know that White Paper would be having breakfast here, there was an awkward atmosphere, so I just started reading the agenda that needed to be reviewed.

It was then.

‘for a moment. This smell… .’

I overlooked it because I was trying so hard to get absorbed in the aroma of the coffee beans.

Before I knew it, an unidentifiable ferocious smell was filling the room.

What Baek Seo brought was an egg mayo sandwich made with a mixture of boiled eggs and mayonnaise.

However, this smell was not something you would expect from a simple egg mayo sandwich.

What on earth is this violent smell that so strongly stimulates the appetite?

Soon, I realized.

‘Roasted bacon… !’

It smelled like bacon.

Egg mayo sandwich has chewy bacon?

And grilled bacon?

Saliva started to form in my mouth and my appetite began to grow.

‘Damn, I want to eat…’ !’

I wanted to ask for just one bite.

I wanted to enjoy the fantastic synergy of finely chopped boiled eggs, soggy mayonnaise, and grilled bacon with my tongue… !

The desire welling up in my heart made me turn my eyes towards the clock.

‘There’s still a long way to go before the store opens.’

It’s a situation where you can’t run out to the school cafeteria right away.

Who would have thought that the exemplary act of going to school early could lead to such an unfortunate incident… .

In the end, the only thing left is to ask White Paper for a bite?

‘Even though… .’

Can not be done.

Asking for ‘just one bite’ would have damaged the image I had worked hard to build.

The white paper will definitely give you a bite to eat.

However, as a leading manager, I did not want to be looked down on even a little.

Some may say it is stubborn.

Some may ask what the problem is.

First, I am the leader of the ‘leadership department of about 400 people, composed of 10 platoons and ranked first in the armed forces.’

He is in a position to lead the leadership team to catch and destroy the villains, and to do this, he has to somehow reign as a person that the members can trust and follow.

Even if I wasn’t perfect, I had to exist as a person who was more dignified and closer to perfection than anyone else in this school.

So I had to be strict with myself.

Not even an inch of disruption was allowed.

That was courtesy to those who followed me.

It was a responsibility that one must have as the head of a group.

It was a duty.

therefore.

‘I don’t ask for just one bite…’ !’

I don’t get bacon and egg mayo sandwiches.

I will pretend like nothing is wrong and get over this situation.

I was going to wait until the white paper finished eating the sandwich.

Then, suddenly.

Something was placed on my desk.

Only then did I realize that I had closed my eyes tightly without realizing it.

“?”

I deliberately ‘closed my eyes and pretended to rub them because of fatigue’ and carefully opened my eyes.

For some reason, there was a lunch box sitting in front of me.

Beyond that was a white paper smiling.

“Tired, manager?”

“I had trouble sleeping recently because of work. But what is this? Have any of the lost explosives been recovered?”

“As you can see, it’s a lunch box?”

lunch box?

suddenly?

why?

“Open it.”

When I opened the lid of the lunch box, two carefully hand-made egg mayo sandwiches and a fresh salad with dressing sauce caught my eye.

It was a lunch box that looked so good that you couldn’t help but think it was pretty as soon as you saw it.

But it was difficult to understand why this was presented.

When I asked for an explanation, Baek Seo opened his mouth.

“I made this to eat for lunch… , I’m a bit sick of it. Manager, would you like to eat it? Otherwise, I have to throw it away.”

oh my god.

“Because of the sandwich I just ate?”

White Paper nodded calmly.

“You might change your mind when it’s lunch time, right?”

“I’m going to eat something else. I just remembered something I wanted to eat?”

“Hmm, okay… . You can’t do something like that. Because throwing away healthy food is inappropriate.”

Yes.

It’s not good for your image to just take a bite of what someone else was eating, but in this case, it was okay.

My mouth started watering automatically.

It looked much more delicious than the convenience store sandwich that White Paper had eaten.

Even the grilled bacon that stuck out like a tongue was very appetizing.

It seemed like they paid attention to the exterior.

“Thank you. I’ll eat well.”

I picked up a sandwich and took a bite.

‘and… !’

The texture of fluffy bread.

The combination of soft boiled egg pieces and deliciously greasy mayonnaise created a fantastic flavor.

Meanwhile, the grilled bacon created an amazing synergy with its chewy texture and slight saltiness.

“!”

Sweet chili sauce made a surprise appearance one after another, adding power to the savory taste.

With the bitter taste of coffee added, an ecstatic harmony spread in my mouth.

As I took another bite of the sandwich, one disappeared in an instant.

“Manager, is it delicious?”

Before I knew it, White Paper had come closer to me and was sitting on the desk.

To put it bluntly, it was extremely boring.

Instead of showing any signs of excitement, he calmly showered the best compliments.

“Can you tell me the recipe? Next time, I’ll try it too.”

It’s already so delicious that you’ll want to eat it again later. So, please tell me how to make it. That’s what it meant.

However, for some reason, the white paper shook its head.

“That’s not possible. I won’t tell you.”

“Why?”

“If you want, I’ll do it again next time.”

Why?

“Isn’t it a hassle? There’s no need for that, right?”

Then I feel sorry.

The white paper waved his hand with a smile as if telling him not to worry.

“Because I like cooking. It would be nice if you gave me a chance to cook.”

ah.

So what?

In my past life, I was like that when I was really into cooking.

“If that’s the case… ,I am thankful, but.”

White Paper smiled contentedly.

“Eat deliciously.”

White Paper got down from the desk and headed toward the door.

“Are you going to class?”

“Yes, we are in a first period classroom class.”

“Goodbye.”

The white paper lightly waved his hand and left the guidance club.

“Wow… .”

A poor room left alone.

I let out the exclamation that I had barely been able to hold back.

This sandwich is truly amazingly delicious.

There is a vacant position for my bride, so we are recruiting.

There is even an impulse to place a white paper there.

… It would be rude to harbor such thoughts without considering the other person’s wishes.

Suddenly, I remembered the peony flower amulet in my arms, and my heart tingled.

However, this is probably a feeling that has already burned out. ignored.

by the way.

‘Why is it so delicious? ‘What’s the difference between the ingredients?’

I picked up the bread because I wanted to examine the ingredients in detail.

The material itself was seemingly ordinary.

“Hmm?”

As I was about to cover the bread again, I noticed something strange.

The inside of the bread was soaked with chili sauce.

Because the main ingredient was a brightly colored egg mayo sandwich, the chili sauce particularly stood out.

However, the form in which it was sprinkled was a little strange.

‘heart?’

For some reason, the chili sauce was shaped like a heart.

It looked too sophisticated to be dismissed as just a coincidence.

It would have been nice to check other sandwiches and compare them, but since they had already been chewed up and entered my stomach, it was impossible to compare them.

“… … .”

A strange thought occurred to me for a moment, but I immediately shook the thought away and shook my head.

The white paper said he brought it for himself to eat.

Could it be that you made it just to give it to me? This is an overly expansive interpretation.

If I had just eaten the sandwich in the first place, I wouldn’t have known it was heart-shaped.

‘I guess I just sprayed it like that for fun because I like the heart shape.’

It’s common for girls to like hearts.

I almost made a strange misunderstanding.

anyway.

I finished the remaining sandwich and salad and leaned back in my chair, immersed in the lingering taste.

‘It was delicious… .’

That day, I was in good condition, perhaps because I ate breakfast.

Starting tomorrow, I won’t skip breakfast.
