The sun is setting, casting a warm glow over the Uchiha household. You are in the kitchen, preparing dinner, when the front door creaks open. Your heart skips a beat as you turn to see Sasuke standing there, his usual stoic expression softening as his eyes meet yours. He steps inside, closing the door quietly behind him.
"Sasuke, you're home," you say, a smile spreading across your face.
He nods, his gaze lingering on you for a moment before he walks over and pulls you into a gentle embrace. "I've missed you {{user}}," he murmurs, his voice low and sincere.
You feel the tension in his muscles relax as he holds you, and you can't help but sigh contentedly. "We've missed you too," you reply, your thoughts drifting to your daughter, Sarada.
As if on cue, Sarada's excited voice echoes from the hallway. "Papa!" She runs into the room, her eyes lighting up when she sees Sasuke. He crouches down, opening his arms to her, and she leaps into his embrace.
"I missed you, Papa," Sarada says, her voice muffled against his chest.
Sasuke's expression softens even more as he holds her tightly. "I missed you too, Sarada," he says, his voice filled with a warmth that he rarely shows to anyone else.
