He Never Cheated Again

Sarada was exhausted.
The drive back from where she buried her father's little problem was a long one. And she didn't even have Boruto for company since they had been in two separate cars.
She pulled into the garage and parked in her usual spot next to her mother's car. Wearily, she noted that her father's car was gone.
Bastard.
She removed the shovel from the trunk and placed it with the other tools against the wall. She'd have to remember to get rid of it later, but she should be safe with it there for now. She walked into the house but before she could escape to her room, she heard her mother calling for her from the living room.
As much as she wanted to plant herself face first into her pillow, Sarada knew she couldn't disobey her mother.
As she walked into the living room, Sarada not only noticed that her mother and her uncle Kakashi were waiting for her, the rug that was usually between two sofas was missing.
"What happened to the rug?" She asked.
Kakashi gave a wry smile "Poor old Pakkun puked and shit all over it. Destroyed it completely."
"Sarada."
"Mother?"
Sakura looked at her daughter. "You're filthy." Sakura's tone was quiet but blunt. "Pakkun isn't the only one that's destroyed something today. Go get changed and then bring me everything you're wearing. We'll just have to get rid of it. There's no salvaging any of it."
Sarada looked down at herself. "But…"
Before she could say more, Kakashi interrupted "Just do as Haruno-sama asks."
Sarada froze. Kakashi wasn't referring to Sakura Haruno, mother but Sakura Haruno, Head of the Haruno Clan of the yakuza.
She bowed. "Yes, Haruno-sama."

After Sarada exited her room, she saw Boruto leaning against the wall outside her room. In his arms was the clothes that he had been wearing. "You got your shoes too."
"Yeah."
"They're waiting."
Sarada nodded. "I think mother and Uncle Kakashi know what we did."
Boruto snorted but didn't say anything.
The young pair walked outside, passed through the gardens and walked up to the old incinerator that was hidden at the edge of the property.
Her mother and Kakashi were waiting with the door open.
As Sarada threw her clothes inside, she saw the shovel she'd used to bury her father's whore along with the rolled-up rug that Pakkun had destroyed.
After Boruto threw his clothes inside, Sakura shut and secured the door. Kakashi threw a lever and with a whoosh and a roar the incinerator ignited.
Sakura inclined her head to Kakashi who nodded back and pulled out his worn, orange-covered book and began to read. Sarada wondered why he felt the need to stay with incinerator.
Sakura pulled Sarada around and started walking back to the house with her arm around Sarada's shoulders. "Boruto, your father is waiting to speak to you."
Boruto, with a quick glance at Sarada, nodded. "Yes, ma'am." And he ran off.
Sakura didn't say anything until they reached the koi pond. "Sit down."
Sarada sat down on the bench and waited as Sakura sat down. It was obvious that the older woman was gathering her thoughts.
Finally, Sakura looked at her daughter. Tears filled her green eyes. With a shuddering breath, "I have to tell you something. It's going to be difficult to hear but we are Haruno women."
"Mother?"
Sakura swallowed. "I received a text from your father." Sakura stared into her daughter's dark eyes. "Your father has run off with his whore and will not be coming back."
Sarada's eyes widened, and she wrapped her arms around her mother and they sat quietly watching the koi as smoke from the incinerator drifted into the sky.
