Chapter 2 guys!
Hope you love it!
If there's one thing you could change about your life, what would it be?
Meeting Boruto.
Today, he asked me to go to the festival with him.
I really didn't want to go. I hate noisy and crowdy places.
But he said his friend wants us to come to accompany him and his date.
I mean, who does that?
If you want to go on a date, go alone. -_-"
Boruto begged me, how could I say no?
Actually I could, but I'm probably going to be bored to death at home.
27 July : Festival
"Well, we're here!" Boruto stretched his arms.
"Great, now find your friend." Sarada fixed her hair.
"Ah! Hiroto! Where's your date?" Boruto grinned.
"She's not here yet." He looked around.
"Hiroto-kun! Let's go!" His date grabbed his hand and ran off.
"Wait! Boruto, I'm sorry, you can go n-" Hiroto vanished into the crowd.
"Sigh, I knew it. They're going to leave us." Sarada facepalmed herself.
"Can't help it. Wanna grab takoyaki or something?" You could see Boruto was blushing a little. But too bad it was dark.
"Yeah! My tummy's rumbling!" Sarada pointed at the takoyaki stall.
"Let's go!" Boruto grabbed Sarada's hand and swooped his way through the crowd arriving infront of the stall.
"Uncle, one takoyaki please!" Sarada handed the uncle the money.
"Hai! Here you go!" The uncle gave her the takoyaki and change.
"Thanks!" Sarada smiled.
"You wanna catch goldfish? I'm the best at it!" Boruto bragged.
"I'll bet you I'll catch more fish than you." Sarada turned her game face on.
"Like hell you would." Boruto turned his game face on too.
"HA! I told you I would catch more!" Sarada felt great she won the bet.
"My net broke and my last fish swam away!" Boruto whinned.
"No excuses, cry baby." Sarada teased.
"Yeah, tease me all you want. You won." Boruto pouted.
We played most of the games.
The fireworks are about to start.
I wonder if Boruto lost on purpose.
I probably won by luck.
Since when did I stop going to festivals?
Oh.
The day my Dad left for his journey.
Mom cried.
There was also a festival on that day.
I decided I'll accompany Mom so she doesn't get lonely.
That's why I never go to festivals anymore.
I'm scared Mom will cry or even worse, faint.
I didn't dare to leave Mom alone.
All my friends asked me to go with them, I refused.
I guess I was worried about Mom.
And now here I am, at a festival, with Boruto.
Just like before.
Both our families would go to the festival together, Boruto and I eat candy apples.
When did I forget about all these memories?
We ran around, got lost, we cried until our parents found us sitting infront of the cotton candy stall.
Ha, it was awesome.
Why?
Why is it so hard to love the past?
The past, those were great times.
And bad times too.
I guess I just really hate my past.
"SARADA!" Suddenly, a familiar voice shouted.
"Dad? What the heck are you doing here?" Sarada was pretty shocked. Speak of the devil.
"I was searching for you! I thought you were lost!" Sasuke was out of breath.
"Didn't I leave a note on the fridge? I also sent a message to your's and Mom's phone." Sarada told him.
"Well, I didn't see it. You should have told me in the morning or before you left." Sasuke sounded worried.
"Sorry, I forgot. Boruto was kind of rushing me." Sarada felt bad for making her Dad worry.
"Kids these days, your Mom's at work. She's going to come home late." Sasuke looked lonely.
"I know that." Sarada wanted her Mom to come and accompany her Dad. She hated seeing him alone.
"Sarada, next time, please tell me before you go. I don't want to lose you like I lost your Mom." Sasuke smiled.
"Hai, I will." Sarada can't help smiling back.
"Sarada! I got candy apples! Ah! Uncle!" Boruto waved at Sasuke.
"That teme's son, I forgot you came here with him. Did he do anything weird to you?" Sasuke whispered to Sarada.
"Dad! Of course not! What the heck?!" Sarada blushed.
"Hahaha, I'll kill him if he does." Sasuke laughed quietly.
"Uncle! Do you want a candy apple? Their delicious! I'll give you mine, I can share with Sarada!" Boruto handed him the candy apple.
"Uh, thanks?" Sasuke didn't like sweet stuff. Unless it's Sakura who makes it.
"Let's go Sarada! The fireworks are gonna start soon!" Boruto reminded Sarada.
"Boruto, don't do anything unappropriate to Sarada, or I will kill you." Sasuke glared at Boruto.
"Hai!" Boruto felt scared. That sounded like a death curse.
"Shut up Dad. Oh and Mom's here." Sarada waved to Sakura.
"Well, let's go then! I don't want to miss it!" Boruto grabbed Sarada's hand once again and they vanished into the crowd.
"Seeing our daughter go like that. With a guy!" Sasuke was dissapointed it was Boruto who Sarada went with.
"It's young love Sasuke, Sarada's old enough. I wouldn't mind having him as our son-in-law." Sakura took the candy apple from his hand.
"I just can't imagine." Sasuke held Sakura's arm.
"You don't have to, just let time pass by." Sakura leaned onto Sasuke.
"Whatever you say honey." Sasuke sighed.
"Sit here! It's the has the best view." Boruto sat down on the grass.
"Yeah, I remember this place. We used to sit her and watch the fireworks. Sometimes we come here to watch the stars." Sarada sat down beside him.
"You still remember?" Boruto laid down.
"Of course, baka. I'm not a granny." Sarada playfully punched him.
"I didn't say you were a granny. And that hurt." Boruto laughed.
Pew! Pew! Pew!
"Fireworks! They're starting!" Sarada stared at the beautiful colours spread across the sky.
"Yeah!" Boruto pointed at them.
"I can't believe I'm here." Sarada yawned.
"Why not?" Boruto asked.
"When I was 7, I imagined myself at home everyday, taking care of Mom." Sarada sighed.
"You were always home no matter what. That day when I asked you to go to the movies with me, you declined." Boruto turned to Sarada.
"I did, didn't I? Hahaha, sorry! I didn't mean to!" Sarada couldn't stop laughing.
"Well, if I asked you out again, will you accept?" Boruto's sound were sucked into the sounds of the fireworks.
Pew! Pew! Pew!
"Huh? Didn't catch you." Sarada moved closer to Boruto.
"I said, if I asked you out again, will you accept?" Boruto was blushing like a tomato.
"Maybe." Sarada blushed. She had a lot of things on her mind.
He's asking me out?
Should I accept? Maybe not.
I don't want to hurt his feelings, and I'm not sure about my feelings.
If I accept, what good comes from it?
If I decline, what good comes from it either?
I wish I had Mom with me right now.
It'll be easier.
Oh, and Dad's not going to be happy when he hears this.
If only everything in my life were not so complicated.
"So," Boruto asked Sarada one more time.
"Will you go out with me?"
A/N: It's pretty cheesy right? /0\
Hahaha, I guess I'm still new to writing fanfics!
