Why are the male leads like that?

07: That mask man at that time

The room was bustling with people. I thought it was the housekeepers, not the rich man himself, who were doing all the shopping, but I guess I was mistaken. Or maybe this man's interest in cooking was just that, being picky.

But is it okay to just keep chasing after them like this?

김석진

What do you want that makes you stare at me like that?

김달래

No, well... I guess I have nothing to do.

김석진

Can you help me?

김달래

···huh.

김석진

Then go to the flour corner and get some all-purpose flour.

김달래

okay!

He smiled brightly, as if he'd just received a compliment. He was quick to move away. He'd always felt guilty about being the one to take the credit, so his enthusiasm was immense.

...This is all flour?

My mouth fell open. The endless parade of flour piles left me dazed. Even my desire to quickly pick through and leave vanished. 158. This damn body...

김달래

That must be it...? It has to be that.

He spoke plaintively, as if it were a wish. The flour sack a block above me. Without a stand, it was the only sack I could reach with my bare feet.

Honestly, I didn't even see the product name.

I stretched out my hand. But I could only feel the material with my fingertips, as if it were trying to tease me. Just a little bit...!!

“Then you’ll get hurt.”

I flinched at the sound of a voice behind me. A hand wearing several silver bracelets darted in beside my limp arm. Whoa. Wait a minute. That posture is a bit odd.

박지민

Here it is.

김달래

···thank you.

박지민

Are you here alone?

김달래

No... with my older brother.

박지민

If you ever need to take it out again, please ask him. It was really dangerous earlier.

박지민

But where are you going to use the gravity powder?

김달래

..Isn't it the same thing?

박지민

They differ. All-purpose flour is mainly used for noodles, strong flour is used for bread, and cake flour is used for cookies.

김달래

Oh, then it's a strong powder!

"Take it." He handed me another bundle, seemingly nonchalantly. I kept bowing.

김달래

Thank you, thank you..

박지민

There's no need to be so thankful.

김달래

Still... I almost took the wrong thing.

김달래

I would like to give you a reward if I could.

박지민

If there's anything you can help me with, I'll call you.

김달래

..yes?

What the hell is this?

He must have taken the joke seriously. He laughs at my frozen, flustered expression. He mutters about my name, clearly written on the blue name tag above my uniform. Then, brushing past, he speaks.

박지민

Kim Dal-rae, junior, see you at school.
