(Boruto's Pov)

I walked back home, hoping to get a nice sleep, since I had such an eventful day.
"I'm home!" I shout, only to be welcomed by my little sister and by my mother. "Onii-chan! How was the first day of school?" She was asking me, hugging me tight. "It was......okay, I guess..." "Is something wrong, Boruto? You look upset." My mom asked me, starting to get worried. "It's nothing mom, really! You don't need to worry!" I tell her, putting on my face a big smile, trying to hide the rage and sadness enveloping my body. I go upstairs and get straight inside my room. Just when i laid down on the bed, Hima rushed in the room with a serious face.
"Did you do it?" She asked me, trying ao hard to hide her excitement. "No, I didn't... It seems like her heart is already beating for someone else." I said, with sadness easily to read in my voice. Hima sighed. Himawari was the only person I told I love Sarada, because I couldn't lie to her, she immediately cuts me off when I try. "How so?" "A new guy came in school and, guess what, Sarada started blushing when he came in." She lays down next to me. "And? What did you do to him?" I suddenly look at her. Am I really that obvious or my sister knows me better than I do? "Nothing much..... Just a little punch." "Boruto!" "Don't look at me like that! He deserved it!" We both look at each other and sigh. "Love life is hard, isn't it?" She asks me. "Yea, if I knew it would be this hard, I would have got reinforcement, ya'know!" We laughed together. Hima gets up and looks straight into my eyes. "Tomorrow you're gonna tell her! It's now or never! I know you can do it, Onii-chan!" "Of course I can, I'm your big brother! Is there something your big brother can't do?" I say, getting off my bed and tickling my sister until we heard mom calling ua for dinner. "What we talked here remains between us, ok?" Her eyes lit up. "Siblings Secret!" She whispered. "Siblings Secret!" I repeat, smiling at her.

"So Boruto, how was your day? I heard from Sakura you have a new classmate." I choked on my food almost instantly. Hima was trying hard not to burst into laughter. "Are you okay?" Mom asks me worriedly. "Yea, I'm fine! Today was fine too..." She looks like she doesn't believe me at all. "Are you sure, honey?" "I'm sure mom! No need to worry." I look around the room. "Dad's working late again, isn't he?" My mom nods sadly. "That stupid old man... It's not surprising he isn't home, it's like he's never home at all!" I get up and run into my room. "Boruto-!" I couldn't hear my mom anymore as I shut the door loudly. I hope Sarada's doing better than I do...

(Sarada's Pov)
"I'm home!" I shout happily. Dad was home after a long time! I felt even more happier when he came to welcome me. "Welcome home, Sarada." He wasn't smiling at all, and he wasn't showing emotions either normally, so that meant bad news. "What happened dad?" "I came back to...get some stuff...... I'm leaving far, I have been requested in the other side of the country. I'm sorry that I won't stay." My happiness vanished in one second. I shouldn't be surprised.... he's a busy man and he never really stays home with me and mama....
"It's fine, it's not like you ever stayed much with us anyways" I told him, a bit too harsh from my point of view. "I'm sorry, Sarada, but I have to work-" "Work, work, work, is there something else you care about?!" I yell at him and ran straight into my room. I closed the door and laid down on my bed. I was close to starting crying when I hear a knock. But that knock didn't come from the door. I didn't need to even move away the curtains. I already knew who was. I slightly open the window only to see my stupid childhood friend. "Hey princess!" He says with a smile. I whisper shout at him. "Are you nuts?! What are you doing here?" "Well, I felt that you might need some cheering up. Just so you know, both our fathers are going to the same place." I sigh. This idiot really climbed a house with two floors to knock on my window. That thought made me giggle. He's stupid sometimes, that's true, but he's caring. "Well, it's not that surprising-" I suddenly hear my father coming upstairs. "Boruto, my dad's coming. Get off. Now." "Wait wait, how am I supposed to do that?! I'm on the freaking second floor!" "I don't know what you'll do, but if dad finds you here, it will be worse!" We both heard the knocking on the door. I close the window and lay in bed, with a book in my hand. "Sarada..?" He says, coming in. "What is it, dad? Weren't you supposed to get stuff and leave for work?"

(Boruto's Pov)
"Weren't you supposed to get stuff and leave for work?" I hear Sarada saying. I think she's a bit too angry at her father right now. "Sarada, please understand, I have to do it... I don't want you to be upset, okay?" I really feel guilty for hearing their conversation. Suddenly, a cat got near my hands. Yes, i was hanging  on the window. She got her claws out and looked at me. 'No' I mouthed. The cat didn't care and got on my fingers, starting to scratch them. "I understand dad, but sometimes you should think more of your family!" I could hear the sadness in her voice. Suddenly, a sharp pain went through my left arm. The cat not only scratched my fingers, but now she bit my arm. I now let go of the edge of the window. Bad idea. My other hand slipped and I fell off, hitting the ground hard. The next thing I knew, everything went black.

(Sarada's Pov)
"I understand dad, but sometimes you should think more of your family!" Suddenly, we hear a loud noise as if something or someone fell off from a great height. I gulped. Boruto, you better be fjne! "What was that noi-" "Weren't you leaving, Dad?" He looked at me with sadness. "Yea, I was. See you soon, princess." "Bye." I was panicking, if dad wasn't leaving faster, then I wouldn't be able to check on Boruto. He then left. I went straight to my window and opened it. A shiver went down my spine after I saw Boruto on the ground. "Boruto!" I whisper shout. He couldn't hear me, or at least that's what I think.... I heard dad's car leaving and I rushed downstairs.
"Sarada? What's up with the sudden rush?" "I'm coming back quick, I just need to do something!"

He was unconscious. Breathing. That was the only relieving thing. The fact his head started bleeding was not comforting me. I took him inside and told my mom everything. She talked with Aunt Hinata and so they agreed that Boruto had to stay here for the night. I sigh. "You're an idiot......". He slightly opened his eyes and smiled. "Yes, but I'm your idiot."
