Episode 193

It seems like no one knew that Bae Jun-seong, the CEO of the agency, was coming.

The team leader, looking embarrassed, cleaned up the surroundings and approached Bae Jun-seong.

“Don’t worry about me and just do your own thing. My job is here, not there.”

“Huh? Oh, you’re close with the boss… …?”

“We used to work together. Anyway, I really don’t have to worry about it, so just take care of your work.”

“Yes, I understand. We’re here to check the site anyway, so we’ll probably be leaving soon.”

At Bae Jun-seong’s words, the man who was said to be the team leader spoke cautiously and turned back to the group.

And Bae Jun-seong sat down at the counter and sighed deeply.

Just looking at this, you could tell that the condition wasn’t very good, but the aura was even worse.

“Huh? It’s the CEO.”

“Huh? Oh, Su-ah? Why are you here? You probably still have some time left in your trainee period.”

“Hehehe! Let’s go film a music video!”

Despite Bae Jun-seong’s slightly sharp words, Su-ah responded brightly.

As expected, he’s not an ordinary guy.

Of course, Bae Jun-seong didn’t do it on purpose. That’s just how he usually speaks.

Rather, I feel somewhat powerless now.

I don’t think it has anything to do with the current situation, but anyway… … .

“Sua, you’re filming a music video too? What music video?”

“What is it? Of course it’s the music video of Blue Camellia seniors! It’s a special appearance! With Sia and me.”

“Oh, so that’s why you came early?”

“Yes! After I finish filming this, the period will almost run out anyway.”

I had a feeling I came early.

There was a reason for that.

But Bae Jun-seong had no idea about it at all.

It may be difficult for the representative to know all of that. But you can’t just use a child, especially one without a guardian, for something like this, right?

“Just a moment.”

As soon as Bae Jun-seong sat down, he got up again and headed towards where the pre-survey team was. Then they had a serious conversation about something.

“Suah, who told you to do that?”

“He said he was the director, but I don’t know exactly who he is.”

“Really? Did you get the guardian’s consent?”

“Of course~”

Then there will be no problem.

Bae Jun-seong also returned soon.

“I’m sorry. I’ve been so out of it these past few days that I must have forgotten to check. Now that I think about it, it’s the same thing Director Kim said.”

Then he immediately apologized to Su-ah.

Su-ah said it was nothing and that it was okay, but Bae Jun-seong still lowered his head.

That’s self-reproach.

“Stop it and order something. Don’t come to a cafe and just waste your time.”

“Okay. You can sit there for a bit. The boss is rude.”

I’ve never rushed an order before, but I’ve only done it to you, kid.

Thanks to that, Bae Jun-seong raised his head.

Of course, that didn’t mean his condition had improved. Bae Jun-seong’s condition was still gloomy.

Suddenly, I remembered that Bae Jun-ho had asked me to arrange a meeting with Bae Jun-seong. Could that have something to do with it?

First of all, I didn’t ask right away.

Because there are a lot of people now.

As expected, the team leader of the preliminary investigation team approached.

“Excuse me, boss. I heard that Naeun has a place on the roof. Can I go up there?”

“Oh, yes. You can just climb up the ladder.”

“Yes, thank you.”

This is something we talked about on the phone before.

A small shelter on the roof where Go Na-eun healed.

He said he wanted to film there too.

I told him not to worry when he said there wouldn’t be many people who could go up.

What should I do?

If I hadn’t known there would be an indirect impact, I would have been a little more sensitive about the filming location.

This time it didn’t happen.

Just in case, you never know.

Of course, I asked them to stop the location from being specified.

The reason is right in front of you.

This is the case with Bae Jun-seong.

“Please give me an iced Americano.”

“Okay. I’ll make it really bitter.”

“Oh, I like that one.”

“If you want to eat something sweet, you have to eat something else.”

“Can I have just an iced Americano?”

“Oh, no.”

“Wow, the boss here is really into business.”

I snickered at Bae Jun-seong’s words.

The two of them were just joking around. They were trying to lighten the mood.

But Su-ah, who was listening from the side, whispered softly to Sia.

‘You guys are so childish, aren’t you?’

‘huh.’

To hear something like that from Su-ah… … I guess I was being too reckless.

“If you want something sweet, I’ll give you a vanilla latte. Drink that.”

“yes.”

Bae Jun-seong also heard about it and accepted it without saying a word.

Then now I just need to order Sia… … .

Whyeeeeeeee!!

Suddenly, out of nowhere, Langyi came up onto the counter with a siren-like sound.

“Lang-ah~!”

Why!!

Su-ah hugged Rangi, who was crying as if protesting, asking why she came now.

But if you look closely, that guy Rangi, he didn’t come right after Suah did, he came down two or three beats late, not just one beat.

His face is also puffy, so it looks like he slept well.

‘I was sleeping soundly in a transparent hammock on the ceiling, but I woke up to people climbing up onto the roof?’

It was a reasonable suspicion, but Su-ah was hugging Rangi.

It was clear from the loud cries of the crocodile that he had been waiting for him for a long time. There was no way to break that innocence.

“Sir, I’d like yogurt. With lots of fruit in it.”

“Huh? Oh. Yogurt? Okay. Got it.”

Regardless of what was said next to her, Sia ordered the menu.

This guy is really a guy.

Among them, the one I chose was one that allowed me to eat plenty of fresh fruit.

I’ve felt this before, but Sia really seems to like fruit.

“What? Is there something like that? Give it to me too.”

“You said you were drinking coffee?”

“I didn’t know there was such a thing.”

“… …What did you do without looking at the menu?”

“I never thought the team leader would make something like that.”

Bae Jun-seong, who was listening to Sia’s menu from the side, suddenly changed the menu.

I don’t know why he’s doing this again.

There’s no problem changing the order because the menu hasn’t been created yet.

“You want yogurt too?”

“yep.”

“You can’t change it now?”

“If you can’t change it, you can just order another one.”

Oh, that’s the way.

Anyway, the rest.

Now that I have the order, I’m going to make it quickly before Sia pierces my face with her eyes.

I’m a little worried about Bae Jun-seong’s condition.

[Bae Jun-seong]

*situation

─Depressed

─Worries

─Hatred between sympathy and pity

It’s different from anything I’ve seen before, so I don’t know what to do right now.

So, I accepted the joke for a while… … .

What does that mean?

“Oh, right. Have you eaten? Should I make you some old-fashioned toast?”

“yes.”

I asked her as I was about to go into the kitchen, and she answered right away.

Even the expression on his face said, “No matter what you ask, it’s useless.”

I had expected this anyway and decided to ask the team that had come for the preliminary investigation.

“Go and ask if she wants some toast.”

“Why me?”

“Then do you want the kids to do it?”

“Ugh. You’re ordering me around even though I’m not the team leader anymore?”

“Don’t call me team leader.”

Bae Jun-seong went to ask if we wanted to order toast, even though he was grumbling.

“I’m eating. And I’ll have iced Americano as my drink.”

“okay.”

A unified drink? It would be easy to make.

Now that we have all the actual orders, we come into the kitchen.

And then he called Soo-Jung.

“Can you go and get me some yogurt?”

─Yeah!

It was to run an errand for Tori’s den.

Unlike Miho and Brownie, Soo-Jung was able to run errands like this.

Of course, there were other eyes… … .

I was outside right now, meeting with the pre-survey team, so I could do it without worrying about what other people thought.

While Soo-Jung brought the yogurt, I decided to quickly make some toast.

I still had plenty of eggs from before, so I had more than enough for toast.

The vegetables that went in were also simple.

Cabbage and carrots are finished.

Adding a little mint and herbs here could have enriched the effect and taste.

I cracked the egg first.

One, two, three… … .

Knock! Knock! Knock!

I quickly separated the shells and contents from each plate, two at a time.

The shells fall off faster than the machine. The peeled eggs are well beaten and lightly seasoned with salt and sugar.

The effect was also enhanced by adding a little honey.

Fatigue is something that office workers always have to live with, so it’s good to relieve it at times like this.

Next, mix in the thinly sliced ​​vegetables and herbs and you’re ready to make the filling for old-fashioned toast.

Now, all you have to do is spread it out wide and thick.

Choaaaa~

Egg pancakes poured over heated butter.

In the old days, the egg rolls for toast were delicious when cooked until golden brown on both sides.

One sheet, two sheets.

The egg transfer piled up quickly.

─Here you go!

“Already? Good job. I’ll give this to you later.”

─Yeah!

We decided to give the hard-working Soo-Jung some yogurt full of aura.

I finished frying the egg rolls.

And before baking the bread, I made some coffee first.

That seemed to be the right temperature.

‘There are a lot of people, so my hands are busy.’

Is this the first time you’ve seen so many people flock together at once?

Come to think of it, that’s what happened.

I’ve had many customers come in before, but I’ve never had this many orders in one go.

I guess I’ve been busy. I should hurry up and do it.

The energy from the neck spread throughout the body.

Swish!

The optimal path was drawn and the hands moved along the path as if dancing.

There was no problem in making coffee and toasting bread at the same time.

But I still wish I had one more hand.

“I’m here!”

“Oh, you’re here?”

“Yes! Are you busy? How can I help you?”

Just then, Go Na-eun came in.

“Here, I put some bread and fried eggs inside. You know street toast?”

“Huh? I know! Ahh~ So that’s how you make it. Then, can I put this on toast?”

“Oh. That’ll do. For the sauce, just sprinkle some ketchup and sugar on it. Can you do it?”

“Of course! But why is this ketchup light in color?”

“That’s because I made it myself.”

“Wow! You make ketchup too?”

Of course I could make it. The tomatoes kept coming out of the garden.

The remaining thing was to make the sauce like this.

“Then I’ll have toast, please.”

“Yes! Wow~ It looks so delicious. The eggs are so thick!”

As I was chuckling at Go Na-eun’s reaction, I saw two faces peeking out from the counter.

It was Sia and Sua.

If you keep doing that, your neck will fall off.

Since the coffee is all gone, I quickly made some for them too.

The yogurt is filled with fruits from the garden and topped with a dollop of honey.

I also quickly made a Mint Chocolate Frappuccino.

When I see Go Na-eun, the toast is done.

then.

“The drink and toast you ordered are here. Enjoy them.”

He brought them one by one to the counter and called people over.

Of course, I placed Su-ah, Sia, and Bae Jun-seong on the counter table first.

“thank you for this food!”

“Okay. Let me know if you want more.”

“Hehehe! Yes!”

I couldn’t help but laugh when I heard Su-ah’s words after a long time.

What the pre-survey team ordered was brought in by Go Na-eun and a few of her party members.

We had some time to eat in silence for a while.

* * *

After filling their stomachs with coffee and toast, the pre-survey team went out with Go Na-eun to see if there was anything else to do.

Sia also goes out with Sua to unpack her bags at home… … .

‘That guy is the only one left.’

The only person left was Bae Jun-seong, who had been staring blankly out the window for a while without saying a word.

It seemed that the effects of drinks and toast alone were not of much use.

For now, I just watched and cleaned up the cafe.

─It’s delicious~

‘You can eat more.’

─Yeah!

While I was organizing things while watching Soo-Jung eat yogurt, I quickly finished this too.

Hmm… … I wonder if I can get out of this state before I leave work.

“Team leader.”

“Huh? Why?”

Fortunately, Bae Jun-seong spoke first.

“Can you buy me a drink?”

“Alcohol… … Wait a minute.”

Although it was Bae Jun-seong’s sudden remark, I didn’t reject it.

Even though I don’t know the details, I know the situation.

‘Let’s see.’

Last time we had a party here after watching a movie, there was some beer and liquor left over.

As for the side dish… … I guess the leftover egg roll from making toast would be fine.
