The next morning you were deep into the project when you noticed a commotion outside your office.

A local caterer had entered the office with a cart loaded with baked goods, snacks, coffee mixes, and quick instant foods that could be eaten at your desk. 

Everyone was following the cart into the break room and scrambling to grab a quick bite. 

You called you assistant over and asked what was going on.

“No idea," he responded. “The caterer just said a business called and asked for a standing order of food and snacks for the whole office.  He is to deliver weekly until he is told otherwise.”

You frowned slightly at that information.  You waited until the caterer returned to the common area and stopped him.

“I know what you are going to ask Miss, but I cannot tell you more than I have already told your boss.  Please enjoy.  There is a list I will be taking weekly to see if there is anything else you would like." with that he bowed and left.

Your boss came out of her office.  She simply shrugged and handed you a white card.

“It will be good for morale. And good to keep us healthy.  I am grateful.” With that she headed to the break room to hurry the stragglers back to work.

You turned the simple card over in your hand where #fighting appeared in  bold handwriting.  There was nothing else on the card.

You shook your head and returned to work, slipping the card into your desk drawer.

You worked without stopping until 3 o'clock when a grumbling stomach and a headache lured you to the breakroom.  The food really was a generous and thoughtful gesture.

On a hunch you pulled out your phone and texted Jin.

You were already on your way back to your office before you got an alert
