Part 19

Boruto grinned proudly as he stepped back, admiring his handiwork on Sarada’s hair. However, when she turned around to look at herself in the mirror, his expression quickly changed to one of horror.

"What have you done?" Sarada exclaimed, her voice filled with disbelief. Her hair was a chaotic mix of tangles and knots, utterly unrecognizable.

Boruto scratched the back of his head sheepishly. "Uh... I was just trying to have fun?"

The room erupted into laughter, with Himawari doubling over and pointing at her brother. "You’re of no use, Boruto-nii! Let me show you how it’s done!"

With determination in her eyes, Himawari lifted her sleeves and walked over to Sarada, expertly untying the mess Boruto had created. Sarada watched in awe as Himawari’s fingers moved deftly through her hair, pulling it back and weaving it into a beautiful long braid.

“There!” Himawari declared triumphantly, stepping back to admire her work. Sarada turned to look at the braid cascading down her shoulder, her eyes wide with amazement.

“It’s beautiful, Hima! Thank you!” Sarada exclaimed, pulling her sister-in-law into a tight hug.

Himawari beamed with pride, teasingly sticking her tongue out at Boruto. “See? This is how you do it, big brother!”

Boruto groaned dramatically, throwing his hands in the air. “Okay, okay! I admit defeat. You win this round!”

Later, they all settled in the living room, the cozy couch piled high with snacks and drinks. Himawari was insistent about watching a new series she’d been dying to see. With Naruto and Hinata away for the night, it felt like the perfect opportunity for a fun evening.

“Come on, Sarada-nee! You’ll love this show!” Himawari said excitedly, plopping down on one end of the couch.

Sarada sat in the middle, snuggled between her enthusiastic sister-in-law and the ever-competitive Boruto, who tried to edge closer to her.

“Hey! I called dibs on the middle seat!” Boruto protested, attempting to push Himawari away playfully.

Himawari giggled, sticking her tongue out at him. “Tough luck! It’s a sister night, Boruto!”

Boruto rolled his eyes but couldn’t help but chuckle as Sarada laughed, enjoying the lighthearted banter. They turned on the series, and soon enough, the screen flickered to life, pulling them into the story.

As the first episode unfolded, Sarada found herself captivated not only by the plot but also by the warmth of her family around her. The laughter, the playful teasing, and the comfort of being with her loved ones made her heart swell with happiness.

With each passing moment, Sarada realized how grateful she was for nights like these—filled with laughter, love, and the simple joy of being together. She leaned back against the couch, feeling the cozy presence of Boruto on one side and Himawari on the other, and settled in for an unforgettable evening.
