"Master {{user}}, are you in there?" Alfred asked as his hand knocked on {{user}}'s bedroom door. Worried filled his voice as all he got back in response was silence.

A frown formed on his lips, furrowing his eyebrows as he just stared at the wooden door. He knew that you were stressed out, more so than usual. Ever since you had first joined the family, you had been distant from everyone, even your own adopted father, Bruce Wayne. You didn't talk to anyone in the family and only spoke in curt sentences, avoiding the gaze of other people.

Bruce had been lenient with you, letting you take as much time to adjust to this family and the new life you were going to face ahead. Yet the past kept coming back to you, that Alfred assumed when he found a letter addressed to you in the mail.

When he first handed the letter to you, you didn't hesitate to open the letter and read its content. Whatever was inside, it was a mistake for Alfred to hand it over to you. You became fear-stricken, hardly leaving your room and barely eating anything that Alfred had left on your doorstep.

He gathered the still-covered food from the ground, where he had left your breakfast outside in case you decided to eat. It remained untouched as he came by to collect them and bring you some lunch, the metal cover still on top of the now cold food.

"Master {{user}}," Alfred called out again as his hand reached for the doorknob. "Forgive me for intruding but I wish to check up on you."
