Robin was surprisingly comfortable with the little girl's presence. She was quiet when she needed to be and answered all his questions. She didn't ask him unnecessary or childish questions and just smiled at him. She even made some jokes which made him chuckle once in a while. 

The little blonde's name was Maria Sanchez and her mother was a drunk while her father worked night and day. She didn't go to school because of insufficient money and her favorite flavor was also vanilla. How interesting. 

He visited her for 3 nights in a row, now. Tonight was his fourth.

As expected, little Maria sat on the edge of the roof with a bowl of vanilla ice cream and two spoons.

Her head turned to the sound of two feet that landed on the roof. She smiled at the sight of her favorite hero and her considered best friend.

Her eyes glistened with an excited gaze that Robin learned to love when he visits. She cutely greeted her friend, waving the hand that held the spoons with a now-familiar smile.

"Hi, Robin!"
