Mother's Day had passed when Sasuke Uchiha returned home from a stressful mission for a week. He was supposed to be home three days ago and could vividly recall his daughters simple request.
'Dad, we have to surprise mom this Sunday! Promise me you'll be back early!' Sadara's voice echoed in his mind. He could remember the great avidity in her voice of how she would be celebrating Mother's Day as a family. Guilt flushed through his body, he didn't want to come home to a disappointed daughter. It wasn't his fault the mission took longer than expected to complete. Sasuke could feel his daughters strong chakra from afar. He winced inside as he inched closer towards the house.
His cold hands barley touched the handle and was suddenly taken aback by door opening. Sasuke saw the hard glare on his daughters face.
"How did you-"
"You lied! I asked you to come home early for mom and you didn't! I was waiting and looking out the window for days!" He could feel the acrimonious tone in her voice. He quietly sighed to himself knowing there was truth in that harsh statement. He wished he could've came back early.
"I'm sorry" he gently spoke. He saw her hard face quickly soften at her father's apology. She continued to glare until there was a change in his facial expression as a small smirk made its way to his lips. Sasuke swiftly scooped his daughter up in his arms and made his way inside the house while closing the door behind him.
She shot her father a puzzling look. "...what?"
"I've got an idea, it's not much but it's going to be worth it" Pause. "Let's make your mother cry"
