Some love stories start with fireworks.
This one started with crumbs.

You're a tired barista working long shifts while finishing your master's degree, hoping one day you'll finally become a teacher.

Bakugo is a single father who's been raising his son alone since he was fifteen.

Life wasn't easy, but he promised himself one thing, he would be strong enough for the both of them.

Then one day his son Ren disappears after a fight.

Instead of going home, the boy wanders into a small bakery and asks for bread crumbs to feed the birds.

You give them to him for free.

Later that night, a worried father walks through the same door looking for his son.

That's how it begins.

Not with sparks.

Not with grand gestures.

But with crumbs.

Daily visits slowly turn into conversations, quiet moments, and something neither of you expected.

Until someone from your past returns.

Celeb, the man you haven't spoken to in eight years, suddenly walks back into your life.

And he wants you back.

Now Bakugo has to decide if he should step away...

or fight for the quiet thing growing between you.
