Everyone was mingling as the food and drinks was being served. Laughter and chatter filled the air as the atmosphere was lively.
Hours slipped by and it was time to cut the cake. Everyone sang the birthday song as Inojin blew out his candles. The sounds of clapping and cheering filled the air as Sai cut the cake.
All the while Sarada had been sitting extremely close to Inojin, she was hoping to steal all of his attention.
For the most part it was working, the whole night he mainly conversed with Sarada.
"Perfect, now all he has to do is read my letter... and hopefully he'll love me back."
Boruto and Shikadai called out to Inojin.
"Oi, Inojin, if you're opening presents anytime soon, open ours first, ya know."Inojin chuckled and nodded
"Alright, which one is it?" He headed to the back table which held all the presents on it.
"It's the biggest box there" Shikadai replied.
Inojin pulled a massive box from underneath the table and read the card on top.
"Dear Inojin,
We wish our friend a great happy birthday, and we wish you a good life. May you think of us whenever you're using this,
Your friends Bolt and Shikadai."
He smiled and carefully opened the gift finding many ink bottles, various of paints, multiple canvases, and a new set of paintbrushes and pencils.
"Awesome", piped up Inojin as he contemplated the new tools that would help make his imagination come to life.
