Chapter 21 Midnight Guest
"You are jesting with me, Mr. Wayne. " says Rahul with a smile before he puts on the glasses and looks Bruce at the door.
"Anyway we have overstayed here in Metropolis thanks to your condition and it's better we leave after getting you discharged this afternoon. " suggested Bruce with a serious face.
"I don't see why not. " agreed Rahul with a smile since he knows Bruce is not asking but only informing him.
"Good then see you in the afternoon. " says Bruce before leaving the room.
"Rahul why do you need to put a glasses when your eyesight is in its adequate condition. " asks Caitlin with confusion when she saw Rahul quickly use his glasses when he never needs to use them.
"Because it helps me protect my eyes from dust and bad rays of the light but most importantly I look like a kid without the glasses. " explains Rahul with a smile as he fixes his glasses.
"But I think you look good without it. " says Caitlin with a serious face since she thinks when he takes off the glasses his charms are stronger than Bruce Wayne or even Superman but once he covers his eyes he becomes a completely different man who can not be more common even if wanted to.
If he is walking without glasses then she is sure everyone will pay attention to him but once he puts them on he becomes so common that he can blend in with the crowd as if the water in the ocean.
"Receiving unnecessary attention is never a good thing, that's why from my childhood I have always tried to blend in with the crowd so can be ignored as much as I can.
Do remember the first tree to get affected by the storm is also the biggest tree in the forest, although it's a great thing to get attention however it's never good to get the attention that can bring dessert. " Rahul explains his secret with a serious face.
"Are you trying to hide from something? " Caitlin looks confused about his explanation.
"Yes, I am hiding from attention. " says Rahul turning towards her with a gentle smile when his stomach started making weird noises as his expression quickly becomes serious before he says with an awkward smile since his cool attitude is now destroyed "I think hunger is invading me after not eating something solid for a while. "
"Then we need to hurry to stop hunger from harming you. " says Caitlin with a smile as she found him rather cute when he tried to divert her attention.
"Yes let's hurry to the cafeteria before it's too late. "

"Gotham City harbor. " landing on the Gotham harbor Faora let out a long sigh since she is finally close to her destination and taking the same paper she received from the mysterious man she says "It better not be some kind of a trick from him. "
-----------------------------
After everything is over in Metropolis Rahul, Bruce and Sarah say goodbye to Lois and Clark before coming to the airport with Caitlin since she is also returning to Central City.
"Don't forget to visit me. " says Caitlin with a smile as she hugs him.
"Sure but you need to catch the flight unless you want to be left behind. " says Rahul with a smile as he returns her hug before reminding her.
"Why do I feel you are happy because I am leaving? " asks Caitlin with a serious tone as she hugs him tighter feeling angry from his carefree attitude when she is leaving him.
"How can I be happy when someone as beautiful as you leave my side? "asks Rahul with a serious tone before closing his eyes so he can feel more of those soft things between the two of them while they hug one another.
"Then don't forget to visit me from time to time or I will have to make some trip down Gotham. " says Caitlin in satisfaction upon knowing his worry.
"You are always welcome to visit me. " says Rahul with a gentle tone as their hug finally ends.
"Don't make me wait at the airport when I visit alright. " says Caitlin before she quickly dashed to the entrance hearing the announcement.
"Just make a call before you visit. " says Rahul with confidence as he looks at her back.
"Don't think I didn't notice how you were feeling her a moment ago. " suddenly Sarah arrives behind Rahul before saying with a cold tone.
"I don't know what are you talking about Ms. Sarah. " gulping the saliva which got stuck in his thought
"Oh~ sure you never cared for her soft bouncy *** " says Sarah with a serious face as she held to her assets to demonstrate her thoughts.
"I would never do such a thing this is absolutely preposterous. " says Rahul in disbelief and shock from her actions.
"Oh~ just shut up and stop acting innocent, do you think I am blind after working with Mr. Wayne for all this time believe it or not I can understand everything a man thinks about a woman when I look at them.
I am really disappointed in you Mr. Roy, even if Mr. Wayne is a shameless basterd at least he never denies it but you on the other hand... " at this moment a series of coughing sounds comes from the side making Sarah push in her speech.
'Come on argue all you want but why do you need to drag me in all this. ' thinks Bruce Wayne hearing his subordinates true thoughts about him as he almost gets chocked with his coffee before coughing a fee time and crying out in anger "Do you think I am just thin air or something, stop arguing and quickly get in the plane or I am leaving the two of you behind. "
"I am sorry Mr. Wayne. " says Sarah with a serious face before giving Rahul an angry face.
'Why are you looking at me as if everything is my fault, Women are so complicated sigh~ ' thought Rahul before looking at the side as he doesn't want to meet her eyes.

Midnight.
Gotham City.
5th Block city center, 10th house.
By the time Rahul arrives at his new house that he got with a million and a half that he received from Bruce, it is already midnight and not long after taking a satisfying bath he went for a midnight snack before he starts training.
"This city is as wild as ever. "says Rahul with a smile looking at the recent news where it shows Joker escaping from Arkham not long ago and thought 'Looks like the break is over for the Bats. '
