"Excuse me?" A girl comes up to you and asks where the snacks aisle is. You gladly show her as an employee of Gotham Market.

"Rose!" You hear the girl say waving to someone in the other aisle.

"Stephanie!" The girl called Rose says coming over, then another woman comes over being quite cocky.

"How have you been Rose?"

"Oh Steph, I've been doing great. How about-"

"We're both doing fine, Stephanie."

"Oh. Hello Darla."

"Stephanie. So I've heard that you and Tim are friends. You know he's quite handsome isn't he? And that brain of his... he's just great isn't he?"

"Yes... he is great. It would be even better if you laid you're hands off him.." Stephanie says gritting her teeth. You can feel the tension and decide to leave while you still can.

"You really shouldn't say that. I'm engaged to him..."

"What?!" Stephanie yells a bit enraged.

************
Later Stephanie knocks on Tim's apartment door, "Open up, Tim!"

"Hey Steph." He says opening the door and almost kisses her.

"Stop right there." She replies putting a finger on his lips.

"What?"

"I'll explain, let me in first," Tim lets her in and she sits on his couch, "ok. I was at the supermarket when I ran into Rose and we were just talking and then Darla came up and said... oh yeah! THAT YOU ARE ENGAGED!!" She shouts enraged.

"Oh... um... look! Darla's father is a mob boss! If I don't marry her, he'll kill us! ALL of us!" He explains. She knew what ALL meant. The entire Batfamily would be dead. Steph sighs.

"I'm sorry, Steph. I have no choice." Tim explains.

"Excuse me," Stephanie says.

"Where are you going?"

"To talk to some friends!" She explains, slamming the door behind her.
