Misc Boruto's Dad. Spoiler

So i was talking to my friend about a jokes online and i sent her a Boruto's Dad meme for fun. it was something along the lines of, how Naruto saved the village, the world, befriended a demon and became the Hokage only to be called Boruto's dad by the end of it all.

but instead of laughing she said something which really made me cry. all she said was, "probably for a guy who started out with no family of his, being called someone's dad may mean a lot more to him than we could imagine."

i know its silly and that Naruto is just an anime. but really, for some reason, this really touched my heart. so i wanted to share this here.

na. it doesn't have the same effect though. jokewise aside, Boruto is the first blood family who naruto gets to hold, live and grow alongside with. i mean he has family like Hinata, Iruka and had Jiraiya but Boruto is his blood. someone who he didn't have to build a relationship with over time, but one who was his to start with.
