When Bruce entered the kitchen, Alfred turned from the sink, wiping his hands on a cloth.<br/><br/>"Good morning Master Bruce." The butler watched the man sit down, careful to not say anything about the child who appears frozen.<br/><br/>Dick had watched Bruce the moment he had entered the kitchen, worried he was going to say or do something. When he didn't, he glanced to the butler who simply smiled back. He suspected he had said something when he had left the kitchen not too long ago.<br/><br/>As both finished eating, Alfred cleared the table and finished up the dishes. This done, he once more turned to the child and led him to meet Bruce at the front door.<br/><br/>Just as they met him, the doorbell rang. Moving around Bruce to answer it, Alfred greeted Commissioner Gordon, perhaps a little more tensely than usual. Stepping back to let the man in, Alfred shot a look to Bruce before disappearing back into the kitchen.<br/><br/>Dick watched Alfred leave, fearful that now he would be in trouble as he turned back to see the man from the night before, the police officer. He could feel tears in his eyes, he was being sent back.
