Kushina walks through the streets of Konoha; it has only been a few days since the situation with her hus-, ex-husband. Being met with curious and sympathetic glances from the villagers and hushed whispers that sounded like they were about her divorce. It was a burden to feel surrounded by presumable hate and blame for her being the cause of the situation, but it was becoming too much for her since it started. She is strong, but the weight of the situation is heavy on her heart when it comes to Naruto.

Minato must have leaked the information, or the alternative, the purchase of the Hokage wife's new home in another district set a flame to these rumors. Confirming or denying them would be a waste of time since she gained nothing.

The endless thought made the walk home cumbersome, Naruto hadn't spoken to her since that day, and Minato made sure that her distance from him was limited with strict supervision from the Anbu. On the other hand, Mikoto planned to visit her soon for a few days. Then there was him.

Was he worth all the fallout and the destruction of her family? She knew the answer was already set because of what she had done, but there was no doubt that the newfound freedom to pursue a life of her own choice was challenging.

Kushina sighed. It's a prominent place, but it's all hers. The Uzumaki inheritance was hers, and she would make it work.

She enters her new home, takes a deep breath, and looks around. The house was a quick purchase and devoid of much besides the essentials; it would take time to furnish, but the pictures of Naruto reminded her of what she would fight for, her son's forgiveness.

"Quite a purchase for the newly divorced." A voice said from behind her.

Kushina turned around, recognizing the man in her doorway, " How did you find out where I lived?" She hadn't been here a week and somehow knew where she lived.

"Word gets out about someone as important as you, Scarlet," Isa fully walks into the house and closes the door. "I thought a lady like yourself would have completely decorated this place already."

Kushina didn't resist as the man pulled her into a hug, the scent of woody fragrance bringing a familiar reassurance.

"It is hard to be okay when your son probably hates you for the rest of his life," clenching her hands together, "I don't know if losing my son was worth this."

"And what is this?" Isa plants a kiss on the woman's earlobe, a sweet spot he learned in their early meetings. The frustrations of her ex-husband were detailed to him daily. Still, he never made it his business as to why their relationship fell apart, only how it benefitted him into a woman that was the beauty of the village.

"Nothing," Kushina slowly relaxes in the man's arms, "You're here now, so let us not focus on all the details."

"Do you want me to stay with you?" His voice is barely a whisper as his hands caress the curves of the woman's waist, breathing against her ear, and their bodies rub against each other.

" I do," Kushina closes her eyes, " But my friend Mikoto will visit me soon, and I don't know if I am ready for her to meet. And her husband may disapprove if he finds out you, of all people, are here."

As they sit on the couch, Isa motions the woman to the living room couch, not letting go of the sensual position. Kushina, now sitting on his lap, with red hair that blocks his view to only her violet-colored eyes.

"Are you afraid I will do to her as I have done to you?"

"No."

"Then?"

"I have caused enough problems in my life, and I don't want to make hers any similar to mine."

Inching closer, Kushina kisses the man's lips, pouring out the raging frustration and pent-up emotions onto the man she was having an affair with. Minato. The divorce. The gossip. Lustful frustrations drown out all her thoughts. None of that mattered at the moment—only pleasure.

"I need you to fuck all of my frustrations away, Sir. Pound me till I'm unconscious, and rape me with everything you have. I am yours to use." Kushina vented out; she no longer needed to hide and be quiet. She wanted a rough fucking and nothing less.

Isa didn't respond, keeping up the previous pace but now smacking the round ass he grew so fond of over the past encounters. Seeing the woman expressive and horny made him want to keep fucking her as long as possible.

Kushina is in heaven; the warmth of skin-to-skin contact with the man member's now penetrating her pussy is what she has been needing.

"Keep talking like that, and you'll be pregnant, Miss Uzumaki."

"Impregnate my tight cunt and fill it with all of your semen, master." She moaned; the feeling always brought warmth to her heart; it wasn't love, but the primal cravings of being treated like a whore in the worst way.

"Gladly," was the final response that Kushina registered before she could register what was happening.


Kushina will be surprised to see me a few days earlier than planned, but I'm sure she won't mind. We need to catch up, after all, considering the aftermath of this situation. Mikoto thinks to herself before knocking on the door.

No response.

Mikoto knocks a bit harder. She did not want to seem rude, but the sun was already up, and she didn't want this to be a failed surprise on her part. "Kushina, open the door; you cannot sleep this late in the day."

The sound of the twisting knob alerted the Uchiha, and her best friend greeted her in an unsightly manner. Usually brushed and styled, her red hair is all over the place with a wild appearance that does not match her friend's appearance.

She must have had trouble sleeping. I'm here now, Kushina. Motivation to help her friend through the trying times is a goal that she will not fail.

"Mikoto, it's so good to see you early," Kushina says as she welcomes her inside.

Now inside, she sees her friend's clothes all over the house, with water bottles littered around.

" Let's get comfortable, Mikoto. I have missed you so much." Kushina hugged the woman, robe barely containing her assets from her friend.

The other responded with a hug, "I wanted to surprise you by coming a few days earlier than planned; you don't mind, do you?"

Kushina let the woman go and shook her head, " I will never reject a chance to have you over, Mikoto. It has been quite some time since it was just the two of us with no kids."

The two women sit in the living room, catching up on old times. Mikoto finally broke the topic, "I heard about your divorce," Mikoto said, her voice filled with concern. "I'm so sorry, Kushina."

Kushina nods and takes a deep breath. "It's been hard, but I'm trying to make the best of it," she says. "I have my own place now, and I'm starting to build a new life. Not having Naruto around is lonely since I have no one to cook for and have ramen contests with. "

Mikoto nods and reaches out to take her hand. "I'm here for you, Kushina. Whatever you need, I'll be there," she says.

Kushina smiles, feeling a sense of warmth and comfort from Mikoto's words. "Thank you, Mikoto," she says. "It means a lot to know that I have your support."

"What caused the divorce? Did he cheat on you with another woman?"

"Not exactly?"

"Can you explain what 'not exactly' means?" Mikoto questions.

If Minato did not cheat. What could he have done that made them get a divorce? It has been the talk of the village ever since it happened, and the rumors of what could have made the power couple range from far-fetched to seemingly possible possibilities, but she needed to hear it from her friend.

" I fell out of love with Minato -"

"Kushina, that's perfectly no-"

"And I started having an affair with another man I met, and Naruto saw him and me having sex."

Cheating? Her? There was no way that Kushina cheated on the man that they had loved each other since the academy days and had a son. Fall out of love, sure, but to cheat in her home and Naruto catching them was something else.

"Was it worth it?"

Just yesterday, she didn't know whether ending their marriage was worth it, but having him pay a visit renewed her invigoration for a life of her own, "Yes."

"Telling you right from wrong is not my job, but you are my friend. I am here for you and whatever you need, Kushina." Mikoto hugged her friend again and patted her back.

"Do you want to try him with me, Mikoto," Kushina whispers to her friend, " It could be our little secret, and your husband does not have to know.

Mikoto went silent.

Having sex with another man with Kushina.

"I'm not rea-"

"It is just a prank, Mikoto," Kushina laughs at the now red face of her friend; let us catch up. It's been a while, and we still have a whole day.

The two women continue talking, catching up on old times, cleaning the house, laughing, and chatting as the day passes.
