With that Mitsucho started dating and have been meeting everyday, in classes, during workouts and even sneaking out at nights. While Boruto and Sarada haven't quited talked after their last interaction in the library, ignoring each other??, Nah Boruto was busy with his upcoming volleyball competition he was never so stressed but this time he needs to prove something to someone. It was his father, Naruto Uzumaki, who was a very popular genius at the same University Boruto was attending and further became a Doctor, Surgeon in more detail a Neurologist.

As Neurology is considered so hard and very delicately important field, Naruto was the top student every where he went. When he had his son, Boruto , he wanted him to be a study person and become a doctor or a engineer or a lawyer. But Boruto was quite the opposite, he could score straight A's if he studies a little but he was always more interested in sports, his love volleyball. Since he was younger he always won whichever volleyball match he played and the Gold belongs to him, at first Naruto appreciated his son but when he grew , Naruto wanted for Boruto to chose the path of Naruto's ideologies instead of Boruto's love for volleyball.

When Boruto finished his High school, he left home saying "The day I return will be when you acknowledge me for who I am and not of who you want me to be old man, see yaa!" He haven't been home since then and this was his first year studying a sports major with some other subjects like Maths, Physics and Economics. He missed his mom and sister the most but he knows they'll understand and wait for his return.

Himawari Uzumaki, Boruto's little sister used to call him when her father was asleep and Hinata joined them once in a while, his mom always asked him to return when in holidays but he refused to her everytime saying he won't return until he proves his old man he can be professional volleyball player.

Thinking about all this Boruto was working out in the gym along with Shikadai and Inojin. He was the only one shirtless there working out. Boruto's chiseled abs glistened under the harsh fluorescent lights, a testament to his dedication to physical fitness. His muscles rippled with every movement, each sinewy flex a testament to his strength and athleticism.

Wearing his signature AirPods, Boruto was in his element, his focus unwavering as he pushed himself to the limit. With each rep, his determination burned bright, his gaze fixed on the task at hand as he powered through his workout with precision and skill.

But amidst the intensity of his training, Boruto couldn't shake the feeling of unease that gnawed at him. A subtle nudge from Shikadai drew his attention, and he followed his friend's gaze to the far end of the gym, where Sarada was engaged in her own workout routine.

As Boruto watched, a frown creased his brow as he observed a guy hovering a little too close for comfort, his hands lingering on Sarada's body in a way that made her visibly uncomfortable. Without a second thought, Boruto sprang into action, his protective instincts kicking into overdrive.

He stormed across the gym, his strides purposeful and determined, until he reached Sarada's side. With a glare that could freeze hell itself, he confronted the guy, his voice laced with a deadly warning.

"Back off, buddy," Boruto growled, his jaw clenched with barely contained fury. "Touch her again, and you'll regret it."

The guy, taken aback by Boruto's sudden aggression, quickly backed away, mumbling apologies as he scurried off. Boruto's gaze softened as he turned his attention to Sarada, concern etched into his features.

"You okay?" he asked, his voice gentler now, devoid of the playful flirtation that usually colored their interactions. "That guy was out of line."

Sarada nodded, her cheeks flushed with a mixture of embarrassment and gratitude. "Thanks, Boruto," she murmured, her eyes meeting his with a newfound appreciation.
