Leaf Cake House
Few days before:
Iruka handed each one of his student a pamphlet. His student began to study the paper and started whispering to each other.
Naruto squinted as he flipped the pamphlet over and over again, trying to study it.
"What the heck is this, sensei?" he waved his hand in the air, trying to get the teacher's attention.
Iruka stood behind his desk facing the students. He cleared his throat and immediately, everyone shut their mouth.
When the class became silent, Iruka started to explain.
"As stated in the pamphlet, this year is our school's 50th anniversary celebration. Since the exam's had passed and there's three more months to school holidays, Tsunade-sama had decided that the students do some charity work to fill up the empty times," he gave a long explanation.
"WHAT?!" Naruto yelled. Groans could be heard coming out from each of the students' mouth.
"It's better than to sit in class and do useless things," Iruka gave a stern look especially to Naruto. Naruto sunk down in his seat. Sakura's hand shot up in the air.
"Ano, sensei, what kind of charity work will we be doing?"
"Good question, Sakura,"
Iruka took a piece of the pamphlet and started lecturing again.
"Every one of you are divide into groups of three and each group will be doing different types of work. Refer to the pamphlet to see which group you're in and the works you and your group will be doing."
Immediately, everyone turned their full attention on the piece of paper. Different reactions could be seen once they've studied it. Some were happy and some groaned in dissatisfaction.
"I wonder who's in the same group as Sasuke-kun," Ino smirked as she studied the paper. She gave a look to her no. 1 rival, Haruno Sakura. Sakura gave a glare but didn't reply. They were once best friend but when they both fell for the school's heart- throb, Uchiha Sasuke, they became each other's worse enemy and strive to win Sasuke's heart.
Sakura squealed.
"I'm in the same group as Sasuke-kun!!!" She smug at Ino and stucked out her tongue. Ino gritted her tongue as she searched for the evidence on her paper. She groaned.
"Oh, great! Big-forehead get to be with Sasuke-kun and I'm stuck with Shikamaru and Chouji…" Behind her, Shikamaru grumbles.
"Girls are so troublesome and I had to work with one..."
"It can't be that bad, Shikamaru," Chouji munched his potato chips.
