Translation:
"Happy birthday bro, do you have the police buying you a birthday cake?"
The policeman said to Ejun that he had decided to arrest the boy, but when the boy started crying, the officer asked him what the problem was.
The boy then opened up to him, and told the officer that it was actually his birthday, but nobody in his family seemed to care about it.
Feeling neglected, the boy said that he left his brother's condominium in anger, the officer recounted.
Bought him a slice of cake, with lit candles
Puttapong then told the boy to calm down before returning home, and dropped by the closest 7-Eleven convenience store to buy him a slice of cake.
