Vigilante!Smalltown!Reader (Trying to flirt with Robin to distract him from Harely and Ivy stealinâ.)
Damian (Robin): Cease your pathetic attempts at flirting. They do nothing but bring me discomfort.
Vigilante!Smalltown!Reader (Not wanting to make anyone uncomfortable, but still needing to distract him): Did you know ducks have projectile corkscrew dicks?
Damian (Animal lover and Robin): I said cease your flirtâ Wait, do they really?
A/N: Oh look, more of my trash sense of humor. I violently snorted while coming up with this.

Being in a relationship with Bruce Wayne: a journey - Reader's origin story
When I started this new Batman obsession, I soooo needed to get this out of my system, so I wrote and wrote and wrote. I figured I could share this with you.
I start with reader's origin story because some stuff will be hinted througout the series (10 parts so far) and because it explains some of her reactions.
Just so you know, it's afab!reader, but there is absolutely NO description of her, and nothing in her backstory says she is white. But as a white girl myself, if I missed something, PLEASE LET ME KNOW and send me a DM. I really want you all to enjoy some Bruce Wayne x reader, no matter who you are or what you look like!!
That being said, enjoy <3
Warnings: no proof reading, awful childhood with toxic parents, mentions of death and violence, reader has a negative image of Batman
You were coming from the poorest neighbourhood of Gotham. The most dangerous one as well: the Narrows.
You had been lucky to climb the social ladder thanks to your grandma who loved you more than anything and absolutely wanted you to study abroad. She wanted better for you. She wanted you to meet your true potential. She always said that if she - as well as your mother - had been a little more educated, they would have been women of power. And more importantly, they would have been women of freedom. By now, it was too late for her and for her daughter, but it was not too late for you. She decided to sacrifice everything she had to give you what the women of the family never had before.
By allowing you to get an education, she also saved you from a very dark family. She saved you from your father, who used to be a gangster closely working with Don Falcone and to be friends with Victor Zsasz. Your father ended in jail before dying there.Â
It was what people said at least.Â
Your mother didnât know if he had been killed there or if he killed himself. Either way, she was relieved this monster was now gone from her existence. But you knew the truth: you were 16 when this happened, and you had known your father very well. You had followed him for all those years, like his shadow. He used you as a right hand because you were his favourite kid. It meant you knew Don Falcone personally. So when your father âdiedâ, you knew better than to believe it. You went to the Roman, and you asked him to open the coffin after the funeral, just to make sure if all of this was true or not. You werenât too surprised when you found rocks instead of a body. Don Falcone offered to work for him because you had potential indeed.
But you declined when your grandmother insisted for you to get an education. You had been at a crossroad: you could have started the life of a gangster or you could have been something else. Still now, you wondered what gave you the strength to be something else.
About your father, you never heard about him so far, and you were grateful about it. You had realised as you grew up that he was using you because you were a smart and silent kid. You knew how to behave with dangerous people: you never let anyone or anything intimidate you. When you werenât with your father, you were reading books, so you quickly learnt to have a way with words and to read people as well.Â
You guessed it was still useful now, and you hated it that it was all thanks to your father. At least, your grandma offered you another life, and you would forever be grateful for that. You couldnât blame your own mother who never loved you - you looked way too much like your father. She was a mess who ran away when your father disappeared, so you really only had your grandma left to take care of you.
You went aboard. You went to England and you studied. You studied hard to the point of becoming a top student in college and then in university.
You understood what it was to be free indeed. You enjoyed your life away from Gotham, and you werenât too sure if you would ever go back there.
However, after your graduation, your grandmaâs health started to go down. Your mother didnât want to go back to Gotham to take care of her, and your grandma didnât want to leave Gotham because it had been her home her whole life. She also strongly believed that if people like Batman were fighting for the city, she couldnât go away and seem ungrateful. You tried to convince her that Batman probably didnât care, but she was stubborn.
At that time, Batman was so young and so fresh. People didnât know if they should like him or not. You didnât particularly like him. You werenât too sure to understand why he was doing what he was doing. Most importantly, you felt like he was taking care of the big villains and letting most of the population of Gotham alone. The man clearly didnât come from the Narrows and he couldnât understand that if more than half of the neighbourhood population was working for the big villains as goons was because they didnât have any other choice. You heard about his âgadgetsâ and you thought that all this money could have bought a school in the Narrows. Or a hospital. Or anything else useful.
Sometimes, you felt like you were being a little bit harsh on the Bat; at least someone fought against Don Falcone. You knew what the Roman was capable of, and yeah, maybe Batman was better than you wanted to admit it.
You ended up coming back to Gotham so you could take care of your grandma. She loved you even more for that, even if she didnât want you to ruin your career for her. You easily found a job and slowly but surely went higher in society. You were good with words. You were good at getting people to do what you wanted, and more importantly, you were good at getting people to tell you their darkest secrets. You were doing well. You were happy to be back in Gotham, actually. It was your home too.
Years went by, and new vigilantes arrived, disappeared, and came back. Only Batman was always there. You still werenât a big fan of him, even if you could admit he was clearly doing his best for the city. You preferred the new guy in town, though: Red Hood. He was taking care of things, and he also had the reputation to protect the kids and the civilians.
Your grandma was very excited when she learnt you were both living in his âterritoryâ. You actually met him one night. He seemed to be looking around. When he spotted you, he walked to you.
âHello, ma'am. Is everything alright? Do you need someone to get you home safely? This isnât a very safe place right now. An asshole hid bombs everywhere around here.â he had told you, and you were a little bit surprised after everything you heard about him.
He was known to be a Crime Lord and to be some sort of enemy to Batman, but not really one either.
âI have lived here since forever. Iâm all good, thank youâ you replied with a smile âThank you for being aroundâ you said
âOh well, you really shouldnât thank me.â he hummed, clearly taken aback.Â
He wasnât used to people thanking him for anything
âOn the contrary, finally, someone is doing something. Not like Batman. Hope youâll stick aroundâ you added
âOk, let me bring you to your building, at least.â Red Hood insisted, and you agreed.Â
You didnât know why, but you felt you could trust him.
You werenât an investigative journalist at that time, but later, you would write in favour of Red Hood⌠and quite in disfavour of Wayne Enterprises and his CEO.
When your grandma died, you took care of her funeral and of her flat, on your own. You gave the key back to find your own place. It was smaller, but at least you werenât in the Narrows anymore. You stayed close to Red Hoodâs territory, though. You never thought about leaving Gotham again, even if the Daily Planet offered you a job in Metropolis. You needed to stay in Gotham. She was your home, and you wanted to fight for her.
Another decade went by and even if you did good - everyone was reading your articles and knowing your name (without knowing your face) - you clearly had never thought you would go to one of those charity galas hosted by the popular Bruce Wayne.
You were currently writing for an independent and political newspaper of Gotham. Bruce Wayne was often criticised in it, which was one of the only media to do so. Bruce Wayne had offered someone to come over so they could see he had nothing to hide and that his charity galas had real purposes.
You had been chosen among the journalists because they knew you wouldnât be naĂŻve enough to believe everything the man would tell you.
You had no idea this gala would change your life.
And Bruceâs as well.

The Misteryous Visitor 6
Batfamily x batsis (platonic!)
Synopsis: Being alone with Damian after so many years didn't lead to the ideal conversation you two should have had, but every little word seemed to have helped you two get closer at least a little bit. However, the chaotic turbulence of the night returned when your mother decided to leave.
Warnings: Family discussion; mention of kidnapping; maternal possessiveness;
Word count: 4k
Note: I wanted to post this and part 7 together, because they are the last two, but it didn't turn out as planned. I hope you like it.
Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3 - Part 4 - Part 5 - Part 6

Damian walked to the end of the hallway and turned right, heading toward the living room. His only goal at the moment was to find you and try to prepare you for the catastrophic revelation he knew would come at some point. He was already tired of seeing you so unaware of everything; you werenât an idiot and didnât deserve to be treated like one.
But it seemed he didnât have to try too hard because as soon as he turned the corner and walked a few meters, he abruptly stopped upon seeing that you hadnât disappeared. In fact, you were there, sitting on the floor next to an old portrait of Martha, your grandmother, curled up as if just waiting for someone to come and get you. Someone who wasnât your brother, apparently.
âThere you are.â He took a few steps back and made no effort to crouch to your level; instead, he stood staring at you with a reproachful look that made you pull your legs even tighter to your chest. âGet up, quickly. The floor is for rats.â
He was trying to ignore the tension, but you were giving him the silent treatment, which made him uncomfortable, though he would never admit it to himself. You had done this to him many times before, but it was always over silly reasons, so he never minded.
You also could never hold a grudge for long, and when you were younger, within an hour, you would have forgotten any disagreement between the two of you and would then come to annoy him again. But now you were older, it wasnât a tantrum anymore, and the reason was much more complex than any other. You werenât ignoring him because you were simply irritated, and he feared it was different now.
Damian couldnât ignore the irritation he felt seeing how ashamed of yourself you seemed since he first saw you. He hated that trait of your personality, always very aware of everything and everyone around you, though it was contradictory to your incredible ability to do unthinkable nonsense.
From where you both were, he still had a view of the bedroom door. The boy couldnât help but glance over there, curious about what kind of discussion your parents were having. At the same time, he was contemplating various ways to say something or maybe try to fix the awkwardness between you two now, but your guilty voice caught him off guard:
âI didnât mean to cause harm.â You sounded hoarse, and you two stared at each other, and unlike his sharp eyes, yours were wavering. He gave you a hard expression, but not because of the aversion you thought he had for you, but out of confusion.
It was a pity that Damianâs feelings werenât easy to read, so you thought he was angry because that night you found out Bruce was someone very important to your brother now. âI didnât mean to hurt Mr. Wayne. I really donât know what I did to make him like this. Iâm sorry.â
So you thought you had done something wrong to make your father that way, Damian concluded. He hadnât reflected on how you might feel that way, and fighting against his own callous nature, he made an effort to relax his posture and crouched down in front of you. Damian didnât dare sit the same way you were, balancing on his toes and leaning his torso forward.
âIt wasnât anything you did.â Youâre not sure, but you risk saying this was the first time you heard your brother so soft in your entire life. Damian had always been very loud and was almost always yelling or offending someone, but now, combined with the gravity his voice had gained with puberty, it was tender.
He was going to say something else, but suddenly a strange noise sounded. It was muffled, but it seemed like something had fallen, and you both could feel the ground vibrate. It came from the bedroom, which made you become alert. You started to get up, worried, but your brotherâs firm hand on your shoulder stopped you.
âIt must have been nothing. Donât worry about them.â The tenderness had been replaced by harshness, but it wasnât directed at you.
Sliding your back against the wall again, you rested your chin on your knees while admiring your own shoes, and just like always, you couldnât maintain your silent treatment with Damian for long:
âI think I bothered Mr. Wayne by coming here. Mom will be mad at me for this later, I know she will.â You were obviously nervous, seeking refuge in Damian as you always did when you had to face her. Your mother didnât have a good relationship with Batman, and now having to deal with you for disturbing his evening would make her furious. The little relief you felt earlier had vanished, suspecting she had only been affectionate before not to show Bruce.
âMom is mad all the time.â He tried to calm you down. It would be unbelievable for someone who knows Talia only through her assassin image to hear such a thing. She was a cold and calculating woman, but you both knew when she was upset. She didnât express it in a conventional way, and Damian had already gotten used to it. Your motherâs mood didnât concern him much, but it was still scary for you.
âYou were madâŚâ Your statement made him sigh because it was true. A few minutes ago, he had reacted that way, but there was context he couldnât immediately explain to you. âMaybe I can apologize to him? If he forgives me, I promise I wonât do it again, and then mom-â
âY/n.â Your brother cut off your frantic speech sharply; you were almost hyperventilating. âNo one is mad at you.â He said it as a statement, leaving no room for you to contest him.
âHe was calm.â you started to ramble, picking at the fabric of your clothes with your nail. âHe read something he took out of his pocket and started feeling sick, I was trying to helpâŚâ
Damian frowned. He had seen Dick give a small piece of paper to his father downstairs. That idiot wouldnât have been stupid enough to write on it that you were his daughter, right? What a wonderful way to tell something like that.
âIdiot.â Your brother muttered aloud without meaning to, feeling immense anger at the thought that Dick had done that. And only after he blurted out the word did he realize you were still beside him, listening. âNot you.â He tried to explain hastily, still with a furious expression on his face.
It was strange for him to talk to you that way. He had called you an idiot many times during childhood, and you used to call each other much worse things, as siblings do. But your relationship now was delicate, like a strand of cotton candy, since that intimacy you once had was lost.
âBy the way, Bruce is just stressed about Strange.â Damian analyzed your reaction at the mention of the name. To you, Strange was just another enemy of Batman, never suspecting that the man who appeared at your house years ago could somehow be him.
The League of Assassins had many enemies scattered across the globe; at that time, you thought it was just another one of them. You also never asked or wanted to talk about it, which was unusual for how chatty you could be sometimes. For you, Hugo Strange and the person who kidnapped you back then had no connection.
âThere must have been something about our investigation there. Iâm sure it was Dick who gave him that card. You didnât do anything.â He said.
Your heart returned to its normal rhythm, but it grew heavy again as you understood the facts. Damian was blaming Dick for that thing Bruce was holding onto, but it was you who had given it to him in the first place. Bruce became distressed when you mentioned the gift and quickly pulled it out of his pocket. That must have been the object Strange gave you.
âDami.â He heard the nickname leave your lips, and a flicker of hope hit him. There was still a certain closeness between you there. âI was the one who brought the card here; itâs not Dickâs fault. Strange gave it to me to give to Mr. Wayne.â
Damian abruptly stood up, returning to an upright posture. âStrange did what?â Neither Tim, Dick, nor Jason had mentioned this. They said they were telling the whole story, but none of them mentioned any kind of message. Was that why Tim had been acting so strange when he arrived? He remembers seeing him throw a box in the trash and getting all nervous when Damian got irritated and asked what it was. âWas it a small gift box, by any chance?â
âYes, the same size as the card.â You made a square with your thumbs and index fingers, trying to show the shape of the object. âJust like this. But Mr. Wayne didnât let me read it; I acted badly by trying to see what was in there too. I shouldnât have been nosy.â
So Bruce didnât let you know on purpose? Maybe he just didnât want you to find out this way. He should have told you. Damian was about to open his lips to take the initiative, but the sound of someone approaching stopped him.
Alfred paused for a moment, finding it odd to see the two of you here. He had returned to make sure you were okay once more and then leave you alone until later in the day. âMaster Damian,â He said the boyâs name as a form of acknowledgment, âI thought you were asleep.â The butler added, addressing both of you.
âAlfred!â You got up and walked over to him, who rested a hand on your head expectantly. He saw the way you looked hesitantly at your brother, seeking some kind of approval before returning your attention to him once more. âSomething bad happened to Mr. Wayne; he wasnât well.â
Alfred's eyes widened, looking at Damian for an explanation or just confirmation that it was true. He was obviously tense and speechless for a moment but quickly composed himself.
âWhat happened, dear?â He asked, and once again you sought your brotherâs approval, who took the initiative to explain in your place.
âHeâŚâ Damian began, trying to find a way to say it. âBruce discovered something about Strange.â He said with a suspicious tone and the butler quickly understood the underlying implications.
âWhere is he?â Alfred asked, worried.
Damian wasnât planning to answer, knowing Alfredâs aversion to Talia, but you jumped in: âHe and my Mom are talking.â
The butler was obviously displeased and furrowed his brow. He had planned to tell Bruce privately about his supposed daughter, but apparently, things had moved ahead of him. But Alfred knew Bruce well and understood that despite his instability, he would handle things as rationally as possible. Or at least he hoped so.
It was unsettling how a simple night so suddenly turned into yet another Wayne family drama.
âWell,â he sighed, âIt seems itâs too early for breakfast, but also too late to go back to sleep.â He gave your hair a gentle tousle with the hand that still rested there, and you appreciated it. Indeed, the sky was already beginning to lighten. âHow about some tea to start the day, miss? Or maybe coffee?â
âThatâs fine.â You said, accepting that he would guide you through the mansion once more, but stopped when you realized your brother wasnât making an effort to follow. âDamian, arenât you coming?â
Your hopeful tone made him huff and approach to follow you. âLetâs go then.â He joined you, heading downstairs.
Damian was deeply irritated by how easily you let your emotions come and go. To him, it was inconceivable that you werenât resentful, even hating him, as he had presumed you would be just moments ago. The way you let your emotions dissipate so easily bothered him, and he couldnât understand how you could forgive so simply.
This behavior had always been the target of Damianâs criticism, as he didnât have the same ease with forgiveness. What ate him up inside, however, was the certainty that even if you found out everything he and Talia had done, you would still be able to forgive them.
Damian suspected that this readiness to forgive came from a lack of options. Throughout your life, you had only him and your mother, and breaking away from either of them would be devastating. Perhaps that was Taliaâs greatest fear; even if she tried to convince herself that she kept you hidden for your own good, away from the League and Batman, Damian knew that deep down, she wanted to ensure a safe harbor, someone who would always be emotionally supportive.
Although you might appear to be an very naive girl, your morals were unwavering. And incredibly, Talia managed to keep you loyal to her. Both of them knew that you secretly hated criminals and dreamed of a perfect justice that would never exist, at least not in Gotham City.
Damian knew that his motherâs real fear was that you would find someone else beyond her, people with whom you could connect, not out of obligation or lack of other options, but because you genuinely wanted to. This emotional dependency, nurtured by Talia, made you more spoiled than Damian, who in turn always confronted Talia with stubbornness and resistance.
âDo you like any fruit?â Pennyworth asked you, who were with your arms crossed on the counter, while your brother sat at the end of the table, just keeping watch over your figure.
âAll of them.â You replied, and Alfred laughed contentedly. It was nice to hear something like that, especially as he opened the kitchen cupboard and saw the colorful cereals inside, all from Timâs never-ending stash of treats.
âMaster Damian?â The butler asked the boy.
âNo, thank you.â He declined with a grimace.
You watched with curiosity as Alfred grabbed a bunch of colorful fruits and began cutting them. There was some kind of dough resting in a container nearby, which you noticed when he moved a cloth to check, and it smelled so good. It was comforting to see him there in the kitchen, even doing something as simple as cutting fruits.
Talia was a very busy woman, and cooking definitely didnât suit her elegant demeanor. Housework was not part of her routine, so you often ended up eating at expensive restaurants. Thatâs why every move Alfred made captured your attention, and he noticed.
âDo you want to help me, miss?â He asked, intrigued.
âCan I?â You asked back, already moving to stand next to him with excitement. The butler nodded and instructed you to wash your hands in the sink on the other side of the kitchen.
You were distractedly scrubbing soap on your hands and far enough not to hear Damian whisper: âBruce isnât going to let Mom take her home.â
Alfred looked up, not at all surprised by the news. âDoes your sister know, Master Damian?â He kept his voice at the same low tone as the boyâs.
âNo, Pennyworth. Thatâs why Iâm telling you.â Damian checked to see if you were still far, seeing you drying your hands and hurrying: âWhen they both come out of that room and Mom leaves, sheâs going to make a fuss.â
âWhat should I do?â You came back, interrupting their conversation and asking for instructions.
Alfred set you the task of removing the stems from the strawberries until a noise from upstairs alerted all three of you. It sounded like glass, and it didnât take long to hear Taliaâs voice calling for the butler, who moved to go to her.
âIâm leaving,â Talia said with a firmness that disguised well the inner turmoil she was facing behind her attitude.
You were stunned, and a rising panic took hold of you. Alfred hadnât noticed you had followed him until you heard: âIâm going to get my shoes and coat.â You declared. Your mind was spinning with the idea that your mother was angry with you, seeing how she was acting.
Talia turned slightly to you, but the look she gave was impassive. âYouâre not coming,â she said. The coldness in her voice wasnât unfamiliar but struck deep in your chest. âYouâre going to stay here with your brother.â
âButâŚâ You tried to process what was happening, needing to look at Damian next to you for a moment until reality hit you back. âWhy?â You asked with a trembling breath, already approaching her and grabbing your motherâs hand in desperation.
âFor heavenâs sake, Y/n. Isnât this what you wanted?â She rolled her eyes and looked at you with impatience. âYou and Damian will get to spend time together again.â
âBut what about you, Mom? Why canât we all be together?â You clung to her hand even tighter, trying to keep her there forever, but all you received in return was the look she gave when you upset her.
âIâll send your things with someone. Be obedient.â She said, but her real desire was for you to be rebellious, especially towards Bruce. Your mother crouched to your height and pinched your cheeks with her hands while whispering so the other two wouldnât hear: âBut remember, youâre mine daughter, understand? Your mother will always be here for you. Iâll get in touch.â She gave you a strong kiss, leaving a perfect lipstick mark, and grabbed the coat that was already in Alfredâs hands with haste.
âI want to go with you!â Talia felt your arms around her waist and sighed.
âYou're old enough to be acting like this, Y/n. Let go.â She tried to wriggle free on her own, but your grip was so strong that her fingers barely moved. âY/n, enough!â She shouted genuinely furious, and you jumped back in fear. The sight made her wilt, but she still suppressed it and opened the door.
You were in shock, never imagining that your actions could have led to this. It was as if she hated you for it, and you felt a pressure on your forehead, unsure if it was from the anger you felt at how your mother treated you or from the desperation.
âDonât go after her,â Damian ordered, knowing you would do it anyway, which is why he held you in place.
You couldnât accept it. The idea of being left behind, the feeling of being rejected by the only family you knew, was overwhelming. âMom!â You shouted, struggling to free yourself from Damianâs grip in fury, the sadness totaly replaced by a burning rage. âDonât leave! Iâm sorry for disobeying! I didnât mean to do anything wrong!â you screamed. âWhy are you like this with me?!â You shouted louder, not caring about making a scene.
Taliaâs feet were already buried in the snow, trying to hide the pain she felt, but your muffled voice didnât help. The sound of the door closing was like a final blow, and her heart sank even further. She didnât care whether Bruce was right or not; she hated him like hell now.
You were sobbing and gasping, the pain of rejection still present in your chest. âIâm sorry, I didnât mean to disobey. I didnât want you to leaveâŚâ You murmured lower, feeling your throat ache.
As she took more steps towards her own car, her thoughts raced. She knew that sooner or later you would need to know the truth, and deep down, she wished the news had come from her.
She tried to keep her mind clear during the brief walk to the car, passing by a snow-covered tree where ravens had gathered to rest. She was so distracted for a few seconds that when she felt an arm pull her back, she instinctively threw the stranger away, who hit the trunk and caused the birds to start flying erratically while cawing discordantly.
âWhat the hell is this!â She shouted furiously, shocking the boy who immediately began to apologize while getting up, feeling pain.
âIâm sorry, I didnât mean to scare you.â
âScare me?!â She was outraged by his assumption. As if she would be scared by a kid like him. âAnd which of Bruceâs little pests are you?â
âMy name is Tim.â The boy assumed a serious tone now, abandoning the polite courtesy he had before.
âAnd are you going to stand there like an idiot, or are you going to tell me what you want?â
Despite her hurry, Tim stared at her and looked back, checking if there was anyone outside the mansion and taking a few seconds to do so. Taliaâs arrogant look didnât intimidate him, and he spoke firmly:
âA few years ago, in that alleyâŚâ The phrase made her eyes widen, but she still took a deep breath to compose herself. âIt was you.â
Talia never thought she would have the opportunity to face that boy again after that day. When Strange fled, she followed him and caught up with him. She remembers how she grabbed the man by the collar when she didnât see you there. After wringing the truth out of that pathetic man, Talia had to let him go as she rushed desperately to where you were, but not before leaving a beaten face as a gift. But that night, that boy... Tim, had heard your call for help.
âSo, you were the Robin.â She let out a curious laugh, looking Tim up and down. âAnd so what if it was me?â
âYou tricked me. Pretended to be a helpless person.â He frowned while narrowing his eyes at her. âI remember the little girl I saved; it was her.â Tim turned his face towards the mansion again, as if to point at you.
âYou just had the luck of arriving before me. And what did you expect me to do? Tell you who I was?â She took her gloves out of her pocket and began putting them on. âDo you think you could have caught me, kid?â She laughed sarcastically this time, belittling him.
âYou could have told me the truth. You had the opportunity to tell Bruce about Hugo Strange all this time. We could have protected her.â Timâs eyes moved around, trying to process. âAfter I left there, Bruce and I continued on patrol and found him passed out. If we had known who he really was, he might be in jail now.â
âSpare me your laments, kid. Sheâs going to stay here, isnât she? So what else do you want?â Talia said, and Tim wasnât surprised by the information. He had already assessed the scene while waiting to approach her outside. He had jumped through the bedroom window, having not been able to sleep after recognizing your face.
Tim remained silent. It seemed that Talia had a very concrete idea about everything, and it made no sense to try to circle her with assumptions about how things could have been. He couldnât help but feel foolish, realizing that you had been so close to him at some point, and he couldnât do anything for Bruce since he didnât know.
âListen.â Taliaâs surprisingly soft voice caught him off guard. âThank you for helping, even though I didnât exactly need it.â Despite trying to be understanding, she couldnât help but emphasize. âShe means everything to me, you understand? Put some sense into your father, or Iâll find a way to take her back, and I promise youâll never see her again.â
Tim swallowed hard at the mention of Bruce but snorted indifferently soon after. âHeâs not as bad as he seems.â
âI noticed.â She murmured with irony and turned to walk away, with Tim not interrupting her this time. The boy watched her go to the car, but suddenly she stopped at the gate. She ran her fingers over the electronic lock, and suddenly some loose wires became visible. Tim found it strange, and Talia looked at him with a smile, which even from a distance, he could see.
âI think youâre going to need someone to fix this.â She shouted for him to hear, and for a moment, Tim thought if she had done it, but only now did he wonder how you had gotten past the front gate. It seems that your innocent face hid some skills. âDonât pamper her, and tell your father and Pennyworth not to let her eat too much sugar.â She let the wires go while grumbling, slamming the car door, and driving away.

To all compassionate hearts,
I am Heba, a mother of three children, currently living in Deir al-Balah after our home was destroyed by the occupation. Our situation is extremely difficult, as we are living in a tent and suffering from the high costs of war.
My children are suffering from some skin diseases, and I need your help to provide the necessary medical care for them, in addition to food and shelter.
Please donate and share.
