Naruto is honestly frustrating and deserves a good slap. He knows there's something fundamentally wrong at the heart of their marriage and yet he continues to avoid it. The fact that he regrets his choices and feels better Sakura are clear signs he's not really invested in his marriage. Not only that, he's got the balls to think that Hinata has fallen short in being his wife when in fact the problem is him. He's constantly choosing work over home, refuses to have deep self reflection, avoids meaningful talks/confrontation, etc. He continues to deny that deep in his heart it's always been Sakura. Any sane wife would feel maddened in this situation. I really hope Hinata would just leave him. The crumbs he's giving her is not worth it and she's better off without all the pain and mental anguish he's putting her through with his refusal to address the problem.

Damm with this chapter you didnt have to go so hard! It looks like Issues with Naruto and Hinata are boiling over to a point that is irreversible. Especially since Hinata cursed at him. Naruto can play the fool all he wants but he can't fool her.
Yuzuru might be dead? Damm what is going on? Everything is in shambles due to the previous generation growing up without proper insight of the world

My goodness this chapter is packed.

Congrats on moving to the US! That was a wonderful start to this chapter.
I love Hinata in this chapter.
Poor Yuzuru. Just when he'd found Nanami again too.

Omg, things are hitting the fan.

Damn, some of these reviews are sad. Probably just ignore them. We're waiting for that new chapter! :)

This story

goddammit lady. this story is a slog. why the heck is it taking so long to get to the point. more Narusaku pls. not interested in sasugay. kill that faggot too, for all i care.

so precious!

Kill Hinata off!
I mean it. There's noway to justify Narusaku in the cannonverse until she's alive. Sakura has every right and reason to dump that sorry Uchiha faggot. But Naruto absolutely won't abandon someone depending on him. So unless you're willing to make Naruto into a bigger loser then Kishimoto is already making him out to be. I suggest kill off Hinata and make it as epic and hear wrenching as possible.

Ughh, I adore this story but please, please make Sasuke suffer! Don’t let him get away with his selfishness- trauma or mental health is no excuse! I would love to see more Narusaku action. Keep up the great work, thank you for this chapter.

Keep on writing! I can't wait for more!

What a cliffhanger! Loved the conversation between sakura and Sasuke, I feel like they can move on now but I can't wait to see what you write next XD

This is one of the best canonverse fics I’ve read. You know how to take your time- many NS writers rush into «I’ve always loved you!», proceeded by an affair cheesier than OTH.

I also like N and S as parents here.

My guess is that Sasuke didn't even know how much of a jerk he had been and thinking he was doing the right thing. Until his friend told him that it was all types of wrong but i don't think he loves her but more of added that on and he figured out that Sakura does/did love Naruto and kinda screwed that up when he didn't want to cause his teammates anymore pain.

But it was nice that they were able to clear the air and allow everything out in the open with out a punching and screaming match. Do hope that Nanami is going to be ok and that Naruto and Sakura are able to protect them two.

Lastly Sarada is something i am conflicted on if i want her to have just walked in after Sakura was seeing him out or if she heard most if not all of there talk but either way he is and never was a dad or father. Can only hope that she has her mothers patients and does not decide to have a screaming matching right now
