As her words processed through his head all he could think was Kalra was assaulted?

How did he not know this? Was he untrustworthy? Did she not trust him enough, did anyone else know?

Dick was feeling a range of emotions: guilt for not being aware of what had happened to Kalra, confusion as to why she hadn't told him, and fear of whether anyone else knew about the assault. He felt overwhelmed by all the questions and possible explanations for why she hadn't told him what had happened.

It is possible that she did not trust him enough to confide in him about the assault. It is also possible that she was afraid of what he might do if he found out. Dick's feelings of confusion and guilt are understandable, but it is important to remember that everyone responds to trauma in different ways.

On the other hand, it's also possible that Kalra didn't tell Dick about the assault because she didn't want to burden him with her problem. She may have felt that it was something she could handle on her own and that it wasn't his responsibility.

Kalra could have just not told anyone, he wouldn't know unless he called her, which she only said to do if he needed to talk.

Dick picked up his phone yet couldn't dial her familiar number. The weight of everything that had happened in the last forty eight hours held him back. The guilt and shame laid on his shoulders like the devil prevented him from calling her. Despite what his heart yearned for him to do

He dropped the phone as if it was on fire before getting dressed. Leaving the apartment he went to somewhere safe. A non-judgemental place. He felt trapped in a cycle of negative thoughts and emotions, making him feel as if he shouldn't reach out to her, despite the fact that his heart was telling him otherwise. He couldn't bring himself to do it, and instead chose to escape to a place where he could feel safe and find some peace.

Little did he know that the safe haven he was searching for was just a phone call away.

But, he never called. Even if he should have. Instead he sobbed his heart out. His best friend was assaulted and he never knew. He was assaulted and couldn't do anything about it even though he was Nightwing.

Little did Dick know, his family was trying to reach him but he wasn't home to pick up the phone. Instead he was off somewhere else. A safe haven.

It was an abandoned apartment building, Dick and Kalra usually sat on the building, having picnics talking about their problems or the latest news that each other should know about. It was a safe place for Dick. None of his family knew about it.

Until now.

Footsteps could be heard running towards Dick. Who just sat there tears streaming down his face. He sat there not caring about whether this person kills him or not. He just sat there waiting for his death or to be beaten by a low class thug.

"Dickhead, everyone's been looking for you" The person yelled. Dick wiped his tears away as it was Jason who said that. He didn't need to see Dick's tears.

Dick put on a fake smile and turned out. "Little Wing, what's up?"

"You being missing is what's up! Everyone has been looking for you and you never picked up your damn phone!" Jason yelled

"My apartment building" Dick said as if it explained everything.

"That doesn't explain why you haven't answered any of our calls!" Jason shouted. "I didn't realize I had left my phone," Dick said sheepishly. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to worry everyone."

Jason sighed and shook his head. "Just make sure you keep your phone on you from now on," he said. "We can't afford to have anyone missing like that again."

"Little wing, I'm okay. I promise" He lied, he's a liar not like Jason would notice, he would be too pissed off with the nickname.

"Oh my, can you stop with that, I've begged you repeatedly and you're still going on about this." Jason complains as Dick laughs

"I will never stop with this, you're my little wing, no matter how old you get or how many people you kill you are my little brother."

Jason sighs and shakes his head, unable to hold back a smile. "You know I can never say no to you, you're right, I'm your little brother and always will be," he says fondly.

"Now let's go get some ice cream, I'm starving!" Dick said excitedly as he climbed down the building.

Jason rolled his eyes before replying, "I swear you are a child."

"What can I say, I'm a child at heart." Dick smiled brightly hiding his inner pain.
