"Gasp--" a bucket of cold water was splashed on Boruto ; he immediately jerked up gasping for air .

He looks around , he sees Kawaki , Ino and himawari with a bucket in hand , smiling at him . He then looked behind at the car .

"Another robbery?" He asked in an unbelievable tone .

"Yeah" Ino said , sarcastically .

"Imported headlights are gone too?" He asked .

"Yeah" himawari said , forcing a smile .

"I fell asleep again?" He asked .

"Yeah" kawaki said with a sarcastic voice "You're so consistent , Boruto . Now look , this car needs to be delivered in the evening . but we don't have headlights . I wonder what's going to happen" he added .

"Don't worry , ni-chan . This is my fault" he said , kawaki nodded . "I'll think of something , leave it to me" he exclaimed .

"Argh , ugh , stop it" Sai came in hitting iwabe .

"Sai , what are you doing?" Kawaki asked .

"Kawaki , he's the thief . Look at what he was stealing and going with" Sai replied , snatching the bag from iwabe .

"Iwabe , back to your old tricks again?" Kawaki asked .

"No , i didn't" iwabe answered , whining .

Sai pick the box from a bag and opened it . "Huh , it's a cake" he said , showing it to others .

"That's what I've been trying to tell you , that it's a cake" he said .

"Iwabe , are you stealing cakes now?" Kawaki asked .

"No , kawaki-san , it's my birthday . I bought this cake from their Cafe . Look , i even have the bill" he said , giving the bill to Ino . "I thought , I'll sit with you and we'll eat this cake together" he explained .

"Sorry , iwabe , sorry . Sai , how could you beat him without seeing or thinking?" Kawaki asked .

"I am sorry" he said , sticking his tongue out .

"Iwabe , there's been a theft in the garage again -- so there's a bit of confusion" he said .

"I see , kawaki-san" iwabe replied .

"I am really sorry" kawaki apologized again .

"No , no , not a problem" he said .

"Okay , let's cut it" kawaki said .

"Who?" Iwabe asked , startled .

"Your cake" he said , taking the cake from him .

"Oh , I got scared , phew" he sighed in relief .

"Sai , get the candles and come in the courtyard" he said , leaving .

"Don't take it to your heart , he's a bit emotional . So he raised his hand on you , sorry" Ino said , apologizing .

Iwabe was leaving with others . When he saw Boruto upset .

He came to him "Hey -- why are you sulking?" He asked .

"Iwabe , i need to arrange for imported headlights . Where do I get them from?" Boruto asked , pointing at the car .

"Imported headlights?" He queried .

"Yeah" he replied .

He pats his shoulder and looks up proudly "Don't worry , there's only one man you can get it from"
he said .
