Sakura opened the door to their house and came face to face to the least person she wanted to see. "Mama."

Mebuki smirked at her. "So this is where you've been living since you tattle to that Hatake Sakumo?" she asked angrily at her. "You ingrate! I gave birth to you and then you'll send me to jail? Do you even know what I suffered there?"

Sakura, though taken aback by her mother's sudden appearance, stood her ground with a stern expression. "Mama, I did what I had to do to protect myself. You were abusive. You hurt me and you never let me eat. And no matter what I do, you always beat me. I was on the brink of death, Mama. You would have killed me if I had not asked Kakashi for help."

Mebuki scoffed. "And look where that led you. You asked that boy to help you? Then why are crying my darling daughter?" she asked. "Because they made you weak."

Sakura took a deep breath, suppressing the anger and frustration that her mother's presence ignited within her. "I'm not weak, Mama. I'm strong, and I've built a life for myself away from the pain and abuse. Kakashi saved me from the hell I was living in."

Mebuki glared at Sakura, her expression filled with resentment. "Saved you? You should be grateful to me for bringing you into this world. You were nothing before, and you're still nothing now."

Mebuki pushed Sakura aside and walked inside the house. "This is a nice place. Tell me, what did you have to do for them to keep your mouth fed? Oh, I forgot that you're a whore. You've been whoring yourself to them right?" she spat at her feet. "Disgusting."

Sakura clenched her fists, her patience wearing thin. "Mama, I won't let you insult me or my husband in our own home. If you can't be respectful, then I suggest you leave."

Mebuki scoffed again, ignoring Sakura's words. "So, this is your new family? The infamous Hatakes? Tell me, Sakura, did that boy married you because you've been their toy for so long?"

Sakura felt her anger rising, but she took a deep breath to maintain composure. "Mama, you don't know anything about my life now. Kakashi didn't marry me because of anything you're insinuating. He married me because he loves me, and he has been nothing but supportive and caring."

Mebuki laughed mockingly. "Love? Then why did your precious husband fucked my niece?" She laughed at the pain that was clearly etched on Sakura's face. "Oh, you didn't know? Mai, the kunoichi from the other village? She's your husband's mistress."

"When Kakashi visited the other village, I recognized him instantly." Mebuki started. "And I'm living with my brother since that Uchiha boy dragged me out of your wedding. Kakashi is so smitten with Mai, Sakura." She revealed. "So I asked her to flirt with him. And the boy is like a fly drawn to the flame." She shook her head. "My poor little Sakura."

Sakura's face turned pale, a mixture of shock and disbelief evident in her eyes. The revelation hit her like a sudden storm, and for a moment, she struggled to process the information. She took a step back, her heart pounding in her chest.

"You're..." Sakura clutched at the front of her chest. "You're the one... you set him up... Why?!"

Mebuki chuckled cruelly. "Why? Oh, my dear Sakura, you were always so naive. I did it to show you the truth. To make you realize that your perfect little world with Kakashi was just an illusion. I wanted you to see that he's no different from anyone else. Men are all the same, Sakura, and they can't be trusted." She stepped forward to look at her daughter in the eyes. "It seems like, your great Kakashi, doesn't really love you, Sakura."

"Why, Mama?" Sakura's voice trembled as she spoke. "Why would you do something like this? What do you gain from causing me more pain?"

Mebuki laughed, a cold and heartless sound. "Oh, my dear Sakura. You always thought you were better than me, that you could escape the life I gave you. I wanted to bring you back to reality, to show you that you can't escape your past. And now, you see the truth about your precious husband."

"We are fixing our relationship!" Sakura shouted. "Kakashi... he chose me, he chose us."

Mebuki continued to mock Sakura. "Fixing? Do you really believe that a man like him can change? Men are all the same, Sakura. They are driven by their desires, and they will betray you sooner or later."

Sakura's eyes welled up with tears, a mix of heartbreak and betrayal. "I won't believe you, Mama. Kakashi loves me, and he chose us. I will choose us."

"You're willing to take back your cheating husband?" Mebuki asked, surprised. "Are you that pathetic?"

Sakura wiped away her tears, a resolute expression replacing the initial shock. "I don't know what your intentions are, Mama, but now that I know that you manipulated everything to make my husband cheat on me, I'm not going to let you win. Kakashi chose me, and I choose him."

Sakura wiped away her tears, a resolute expression replacing the initial shock. "I don't know what your intentions are, Mama, but I won't let you poison my mind or my marriage. I believe in Kakashi, and I believe in us. Whatever you're trying to achieve, it won't work."

Mebuki sneered at Sakura. "You always were a fool, Sakura. Blindly believing in fairy tales and happy endings. Well, enjoy your little fantasy. I just wanted to remind you of the harsh reality. When he cheats on you again, don't come crying to me."

Sakura took a deep breath, trying to compose herself. "You need to leave, Mama. I won't let you disrupt my life anymore."

Mebuki laughed bitterly. "Disrupt? Oh, Sakura, you're so delusional. Fine, I'll leave. Enjoy your perfect little world while it lasts. But remember, I warned you."

As Mebuki walked towards the door, Sakura's emotions were in turmoil. When she discovered Kakashi's infidelity, she was unsure of herself. She cannot believe that he will do that to her. But with the knowledge of her own mother's manipulation, she can see how it happened. Although it still hurts that Kakashi would be so vulnerable that her mother can manipulate him, she can now find it in her heart to forgive him.
