new story.
I don't own Naruto. I just own the plot.
"Sakura-chan! Let's go out tonight!" Naruto grinned while walking beside his pink-haired friend.
Sakura stretched her arms toward the starry sky.
"Nah... maybe next time Naruto. Besides, we just came home from an S-class mission and we were delayed. My mom and dad are probably worried sick about me." Sakura said.
Naruto's grin slowly disappeared. He envied Sakura. He had no family. No mom, no dad to go home to and share his stories about his missions. Then his smile returned when he remembered Sakura's words to him.
"Don't say you don't have anyone left Naruto, you still have me and the others! I'll be your sister! Kakashi-sensei can be our dad! And Jiraiya can be our grandpa!"
A small laugh escaped Naruto's lips.
"What's so funny?" Sakura asked.
Naruto shook his head while smiling, "Nothing."
Sakura shrugged.
They entered Tsunade's office and reported their mission. It was a bit late when they were dismissed.
Sakura headed straight to her house and Naruto straight to Ichiraku.

As Sakura entered their house, she saw her mom sleeping on the couch with a book on one hand. Sakura smiled as she kissed her mom on the forehead.
Her mom woke up and rubbed her eyes.
"I'm home, mom." Sakura smiled the more.
"Huh... Oh!!! Sakura-chan!" Her mom hugged her tight immediately. Sakura hugged back.
"I was so worried! The Hokage said you were supposed to be back here three days ago!" Her mom spilled some tears.
Sakura wiped her mom's tears away. They didn't look alike. Her mom's hair color's red and her features are a lot different from Sakura's.
"I'm here, no need to worry!" Sakura calmed her down.
The house was quiet and only the silent sobs of Sakura's mom and Sakura's voice filled the room.
"Where's dad?" Sakura asked.
"He's asleep upstairs."
Sakura and her dad weren't close. He would always complain about everything she does. Sakura would ignore him for her mom. He hated Sakura for an unknown reason.
"Oh, so she's home." A strong voice from the stairs was heard.
"Isn't it great?" Her mom smiled.
Her father scoffed, "Whatever. At least you'll stop all your sobbing. It's late, go to sleep." And with that, he went back up.
Sakura sighed but smiled at her mom. "He's probably just tired. He's been working hard lately."
Sakura nodded.

Morning came and Sakura woke up a little late. After taking a quick shower she went down to eat breakfast. When she got to the kitchen she saw her dad.
"Morning dad." She smiled.
No response.
Sakura kept her smile as she went to the refrigerator. "Where's mom?" She asked.
No response.
Sakura got some milk and poured some in a bowl of cereal. She sat across her dad then started eating while her dad read the morning paper. It was a Sunday and her dad had no work during Sundays.
"Hey Dad, is it alright if I go out-" Sakura was cut short when her dad hit the table with his fist.
"GO OUT?!! NO! You've been out all month!" Her dad yelled.
"But I go out on missions...and...and... tonight's my only time to spend with my friends!" Sakura said.
"Missions!" He scoffed. "For all I care, you're just bitching around using these... these... missions as excuse!" Her father shouted.
Sakura was wide-eyed. "How dare you say that to me, dad???? I've been endangering my life just to keep you and mom safe, to keep Konoha safe!"
"If you're complaining about that then why don't you just quit being a ninja and help more around here?!!"
"I'm not complaining, dad!" Sakura said, keeping her tone that won't disrespect his dad. "I love being a ninja! I understand that things are always a mess around here. What I don't understand is why don't you accept me being a ninja?!"
Her dad was taken back. He narrowed down his eyes down at Sakura.
"Dad, being a ninja is my passion. It's not only a job! I understand you hate them because they didn't accept you but-"
Sakura was cut off when her dad slapped her. "Don't you dare..."
Sakura was in tears. She stomped out of the house, grasping her necklace.
Okay. Chappie one is done.
