Gambler of Feelings:

Chapter Six

"What do you want, Shikadai?" hissed Sumire knowing the exact reason. If it was about that girl... Nara was blinded in judging the situation.

"Don't ask stupid questions. You know why I called you, right? You were close with her, so I want hear your opinion on Boruto behaviour today", responded Shikadai. Sumire had a very good reason to be cold towards him, but decided leave behind their issues from the past. At least for now.

"Why you suddenly ask me about opinion on Boruto behaviour? In the past you didn't gave a damn about my warnings", coldness in her voice couldn't be more noticeable than now.

"It was too much troublesome and I admit it was one of my past mistakes", admitted defeated Shikadai.

"Ha! Even if you finally realized it, it's too late now. Considering our past I will decide if I should hear you out depending on your answer. Shikadai, why you still try to justify that girl which hurt both you and Boruto? Shouldn't you both just move on and forget about her?"

Sumire felt disgusted when she mentioned up this girl in their phone conversation. She never liked her and never will. It just proves that she was right from the same beginning. Now they all suffer and it's her fault. It's her fault that the rest of club members don't treat her seriously as well. Sumire had a lot of her own secrets, but Shikadai and Boruto actually were more secretive than her in regard to theirs past. Past, which even Mitsuki had no idea about.

"It's complicated and without Boruto constent I cannot tell you... What a dra..." Sumire hunged up. She was fed up with Shikadai excuses. Looking at night sky she went into the direction of an orphanage where she was older sister for younger children. This Monday had too much of unexcepted events as well developments. Taking a break didn't seem that bad, especially in her current mood. Shikadai started unintenotionally awaken her bad side of personality.

"Even if Mitsuki will accept my feelings... I'm not ready right now for entering into an relationship. Huh, I should realize this earlier. The past will be always hunting me" she whispered, but still wanted to denay reality a little bit more.

"Mom, Hima, I came back, ya'll know!" screamed Boruto standing in the middle of the two most important women in his family.

"We can hear you, Boruto" claimed in a calm manner Hinata Uzumaki, in other words Boruto mom. She was a beautiful middle-aged women with an unique lavender eyes, pale skin and style-bobed dark blue hair. Indeed Boruto mother was very pretty, patient and good mannered what made Boruto think that dad didn't deserve to be with her in relationship at all.

"Brother, you're too loud. It is disturbing me in creating my art" complained on the other hand his younger sister Himawari. Himawari was a mini-copy of their mother, not counting her blue eyes and whisker marks on her cheeks. In terms of character she was too similar to their mom, which worried Boruto. Although he loved them both or since he loved them both, Boruto couldn't stand theirs forgiving attitude towards dad, even if it was his DAD fault to begin with.

"Sorry, Hima! I didn't do it on purpose, you know?" answered a little bit nervous Boruto. He noted to himself that both Hinata and Himawari were really hard to deal with, especially if they were angry on you.

"I know, I was just teasing you" she sent to him a warm smile. Boruto pouted a little bit and as usual was overdramatic during their family dinner. He ate already in the cafe, but didn't want make mom sad by not eating her cooking. In the result he couldn't look on evening adverts with food, because they were making him too much full than he actually was.

"You seem more energetic today. Did something good happened? I didn't see you that happy in a while" asked Hinata, having a puzzled thoughts about her son being in such good mood and not complaining as usual about his dad.

"Not really, ya'll know! Just usual stuff and gaining new member for our club, which means I can continue pursuing my passion", said Boruto in a happy tone. He never mentioned that girl, which Sumire despised with her full heart to his family. And current situation meant they wouldn't know anyway. It is actually better this way.

"Alright, you can say I believe you for now. Could you please pick up letters from mailbox for me?" Boruto stood up in order to pick up letters and at the same time respect his mom request.

Mailbox was just next to their house, so the trip was very short. He picked up various letters, but noticed one message which was sticking out the most. What stood out from these letters was that it was not packed in an envelope and you could easily read its contents. The message on the letter said:

Dear Naruto

Meet me today at our usual place. Don't let Hinata or anybody know about it, you know what I mean, right? Anyway I'm counting on you!

Sakura Uchiha

Why his father knew Sarada mother?! And more importantly why he had secret meeting with her. Boruto hid the message in the pocket of his jacket. There is no way he shows the contents of that letter to his mom, at least not before he confronts Sarada about this case. He didn't liked this situation at all, but decided to leave everything for tomorrow and go to sleep. Sleep with many questions lingering onto his mind.
