Alfred has been notified that Bruce will soon return to the manor. Had prepared the usual for his master such as bath, clothes, medication and dinner. So when the dark knight arrived, the butler is in time to open the door.
Nothing was out of ordinary except for the fact that Bruce has already taken off his cowl. It was pretty unusual for him, but not unexpected. That was until the old man spotted something moving under the cape that hugged his master's body. An unfamiliar, small face peeking out from behind him. Enough to take the butler by surprise this time.
"My, I see you have brought another kid, Master Bruce." His usual British accent was spoken in a calm manner albeit his expression says otherwise. "Perhaps a little too young this time."
Unlike Bruce's other child, this one appear rather shy. Something Bruce and Alfred rarely see in children around them.
"It's not what you think, Alfred." Bruce give the kid a gentle nudge while keeping a hand around the kids shoulder. "I found the kid with some other hostages. I couldn't get any information about this kid or get it to talk. So I'm only gonna keep it until I found the kid's origin."
The butler immediately understood the assignment and let them both inside while he's going to prepare all the things this kid might require. Bruce on the other hand, was guiding the kid to rest or at least to a place for both of them to sit.
