Kakashi teleported them out of their friends house to their own, after he thanked them for letting his wife stay the night.

Dazed, Sakura just sat down on the bed and watched Kakashi return all her things to it's original place.

Kakashi, still grappling with the reality of the situation, cleared his throat before speaking. "Sakura, I... I want to apologize again. I know I've hurt you deeply, and I can't express how sorry I am."

Sakura remained silent, her eyes fixed on Kakashi as he moved around the room. The weight of their shattered marriage hung in the air, and the room felt heavy with unresolved emotions.

"I'll talk to Minato-sensei later. I will tell him that I will take a break from going out for missions. I want to be here, with you, to fix what I've broken," Kakashi continued, his voice filled with determination.

Sakura just looked at him before nodding and laying down on the bed. Kakashi moved to the side of the bed to look at her. "Sakura, I know what I did is unforgivable. But I will do everything to make it up to you."

She nodded at him and closed her eyes. She doesn't have anything to say anymore. So she just kept her mouth shut.

Kakashi, feeling the weight of the room's silence, sighed and sat down beside Sakura. The air was thick with tension, and he struggled to find the right words to bridge the gap between them.

"Sakura, I understand that my actions have hurt you deeply," he started, his tone sincere. "I can't change the past, but I am committed to making amends. I want to rebuild your trust, and I'll do whatever it takes to fix what I've broken."

Sakura, her eyes still closed, remained silent, giving no indication of whether she was willing to engage in the conversation.

"I ended things with her, Sakura," Kakashi continued. "I cut all ties. I know it doesn't excuse what I did, but I want you to know that I'm fully committed to our marriage. I'll stay in the village, take a break from missions if needed, and focus on rebuilding what we had."

"Does Dad know?" Sakura asked, exhaustion evident in her voice.

Kakashi nodded, even though Sakura's eyes were still closed. "Yes, I spoke to him last night. He... he wasn't happy with me."

Sakura opened her eyes, meeting Kakashi's gaze with a mix of weariness and sadness. "I... I need Dad." she said. "He's the only one who didn't betray me."

Kakashi, understanding the gravity of the situation, nodded. "I know, Sakura. I'll do whatever it takes to make things right. I'll send the ninkens to him to let him know you're here. Sakura, I'm sorry."

"I want Dad." she whispered. "Please."

Kakashi nodded, realizing the depth of Sakura's need for their father's support. "I'll send a message to him right away. Whatever you need, Sakura." He bit his thumb and summoned Pakkun. The small pug looked at him.

"Yo, boss!" the dog barked before seeing his summoner's wife. "Yo, Sakura-chan." When Pakkun smelled the tears from the pink-haired woman, he approached her. "Sakura-chan?"

"Hey." Sakura greeted the pug in a small voice.

Pakkun licked her knuckles when he saw her red-rimmed eyes. "You okay?"

"Pakkun," Kakashi patted his ninken's head. "Can you tell Dad to come here? As soon as possible?"

Pakkun nodded. "Sure thing, boss. I'll get there in a flash. Sakura-chan, take care."

With a small puff of smoke, Pakkun disappeared, leaving Kakashi and Sakura in the heavy silence of the room. Kakashi looked at Sakura, a mixture of regret and determination in his eyes.

"Sakura, I'll do everything in my power to make this right. I'll give you the time and space you need, and I'll support you in any way I can. I just... I need you to know that I love you, and I'll do whatever it takes to earn back your trust."

Sakura didn't respond immediately, her eyes focused on a point in the distance. After a moment, she finally spoke, her voice filled with a deep sadness. "Kakashi, I don't even know where to begin. This hurts so much, and I never thought it would come to this. I need time, I need space, and I need to figure out what I want."

Kakashi nodded, understanding the weight of her words. "I'll give you all the time you need, Sakura. I'll be here, ready to do whatever it takes to rebuild what we had."

As they waited for Sakumo to arrive, the room remained filled with the heavy atmosphere of broken trust and shattered emotions. The journey to healing and rebuilding seemed long and uncertain, and Kakashi knew that the path ahead would be a challenging one.

When Sakumo arrived, he found his daughter and Kakashi sitting in silence. The tension in the air was palpable. Sakura, upon seeing the only father figure in her life, rushed into his arms, seeking the comfort and reassurance she so desperately needed.

"My sweet girl," Sakumo hugged his daughter-in-law in his arms. "I'm sorry for raising such a man. I didn't know he can do that to you."

Hearing him apologize for something he had not done broke Sakura more. "Dad..."

Sakumo gently stroked Sakura's hair, his expression a mix of sadness and anger. "I can't believe he would do something like this to you. You deserve better, Sakura. You deserve someone who cherishes and respects you."

"Dad," Kakashi murmured. "I'm leaving for a few hours. I'll talk to Minato-sensei about my missions. Can... can you stay for a while?"

Sakumo nodded, still holding Sakura in his embrace. "Of course, Kakashi. Take your time to sort things out. I'll be here for Sakura."

Kakashi nodded, a deep sense of regret in his eyes. He left the room, giving Sakura and Sakumo the space they needed. The weight of the situation hung heavily in the air, and Sakumo continued to comfort Sakura.

Sakumo guided her to the couch and just let her cry her eyes out.

Sakumo sat beside Sakura, his arm around her shoulders, offering silent support. He knew that words might not provide the comfort she needed at that moment. They sat in silence for a while, the weight of the situation sinking in.

"Dad," Sakura finally spoke, her voice shaky. "I never expected this to happen. I thought we were happy. I thought... I thought Kakashi loved me."

Sakumo sighed, tightening his grip on Sakura. "Sometimes, people make choices that we can't understand, sweetheart. It doesn't diminish your worth or the love you deserve. Kakashi's actions are his own, and they don't define you."

Sakura nodded, wiping away her tears. "I just never thought that he is capable of doing this to me." she reasoned. "He was always there. He knows what I went through. We lived under one roof for almost my whole life. I thought... I thought I knew him."

"You know, I thought about what Kakashi said last night." Sakumo sighed. "He said, I was so strict and I essentially made you forbidden. In what way, I'm not sure. I think, I am partly to be blamed in this situation."

Sakura looked up at Sakumo, confusion and sadness in her eyes. "Dad, how can this be your fault? You saved me from the hell that I was living in before. If not for you, I would have died in the hands of my own mother. You took care and raised me even though, I am not related to you in any way."

"But I wasn't able to protect you from this pain." Sakumo mumbled. "I wasn't able to protect you from my own son."

"Dad, you protected me from so much. You gave me a chance at a better life, and I am grateful for that every day," Sakura said, her voice filled with sincerity.

"But not against my own son." he repeated. "How are you feeling, Sakura? I was told that you packed and left last night. Why are you here?"

Tears started to pool in her eyes again. "Because, I love him still." she pounded her chest with her fist. "This won't stop loving him."

Sakumo held Sakura closer, his heart aching for the pain she was going through. "Just cry it out." He rubbed her back softly. "Just let it out."

Sakura cried in Sakumo's embrace, releasing the pent-up emotions that had been building inside her. Sakumo held her, offering silent support, knowing that sometimes, the best comfort came from simply being there.
