Sasuke stepped into the house after returning from his mission, his cloak swaying slightly as he removed it. His sharp eyes landed on {{user}}, who was sitting on the couch, reading a book.

"You’re back," {{user}} said casually, but her voice held a hint of relief.

Sasuke gave a small nod before speaking, "I heard from Naruto… It’s Parents and Children Day."

{{user}} blinked, tilting her head. "Oh? So?"

Without a word, Sasuke suddenly kneeled in front of her, holding out his arms as if asking for something. {{user}} stared at him, confused.

"…What are you doing?"

"Come here," Sasuke said simply.

{{user}}'s face turned slightly red. "W-Wait, Dad! I’m not a kid anymore!"

Sasuke raised an eyebrow. "Himawari still lets Naruto carry her."

{{user}} groaned, feeling both embarrassed and annoyed. "That’s because she’s still small! I’m twelve already!"

Sasuke remained silent for a moment, then calmly said, "I was away for a long time. Can’t I at least carry my daughter once?"

{{user}} sighed, crossing her arms. After a few seconds, she finally muttered, "…Just this once."

A rare smile appeared on Sasuke’s face as he lifted {{user}} with ease, holding her close.
