The sky became a little bit light blue and the black was starting to fade away as pale orange slowly creeped into the sky with the sunrise.

Tim listened to the passing cars as he drove to his place.
It was a pretty high building, made of white stone and at the entrance you needed to put a code.
The top two floors of the building belong to Tim, and he have a code for them so the elevator won't bring anyone up there. Plus none of his so-called family knew about this place. Well maybe Bruce because.. well batman and shit like that, he probably knows where everyone in Gotham lives.

His place was built that you could come in only from the lower floor (because the entrance and exit in or from the roof was also from the lower floor just in front of the front door) and there was the kitchen, and the living room, and a little library, from there there's stress to the second floor and there's two bathrooms and two bedrooms.

As he opened the door to his apartment his belly growled in hunger. 'Gum will do the job. I have work right now, if I won't do it right... They wouldn't want me around.'

Or maybe he should eat apple? He hadn't eat since this morning. Or was it yesterday's morning? Or maybe longer? Never mind. Gum will do the work.

And if he's want to be able to not fall asleep in the middle any time soon, he need coffee.

The coffee machine started to work when Tim's phone started to ring.

The lit screen showed 'Dick' and Tim signed and shaked his head. "Dick, I thought I said that you can sent me the details on email, you know, like everything else"

"Hey Timbo, not your universe Dick, I just wanted to talk to you, and so is Jaybird"

"Oh, hey other Dick, say hey to other Jason for me"

"Hey Jay, Timmy says hey"

There were couple seconds of quite and then: "He says hey back"

"Is there any particular reason you called for? not that I have problem with that"

"Just wanted to check in on you, you know that the last time this universe Dick called you was four months ago?"

"Umm yeah, he needed help in a case"
A case that Tim got hurt in and Dick didn't notice. Didn't cared.

"He couldn't ask help from his hood?"

"I don't know, I'm just here to help them"

There was some sound and the call ended.

'Maybe they're mad at me too. Maybe their's Tim isn't good enough too. Am I horrible in any universe?'

Nevermind.

The coffee machine beeped and that means his coffee was ready.

He drank the first cup at silence. He loves the silence. It has something comforting in it. But this silence, from some reason, was heavy and loud. Can silence be loud? He wasn't sure.

As he went to make another cup of coffee his phone rang and this time the lit screen showed 'Bruce' and he answered with a hope that it'll be other Jason and Dick.
