'All according to Keikaku'. Alex laughed evilly in his mind and looked at Martha's angry expression.
Hancock on the side smiled with a knowing smile on her face.
Now, all they had to do was wait for Bruce to get out of the Batcave and they will have a fantastic show in front of them.
'Should I add a bit more fuel?' Alex thought in his mind.
'Hehe, why not'. He looked ahead at Martha and opened his mouth.
"Mom that kid is so poor. He just had his parents die recently and Bruce doesn't take care of him properly. Always busy with work". He said pity like he was deeply hurt.
"Let him come today. If I don't show him how to respect his Parents then don't call me Martha. I need to tell Thomas as well". Martha clenched her fist and stood up to make a call to Thomas.
She hurriedly went away to operate the phone and break the news to Thomas.
Alex laughed playfully and under his breath when he saw this.
"Is it good to do this?" Hancock asked a bit worriedly from the side.
"It'll be fine. This is our usual routine between each other". Alex waved his hand playfully and laid down his head in Hancock's lap.
"Want me to clean your ears?" She asked with a smile while caressing Alex's hair gently and massaging his temples from time to time.
"It's getting colder and colder outside huh". Hancock said and looked outside through the window.
"Yeah, Christmas is close as well". Alex nodded his head and kept his eyes closed. He enjoying the lap pillow on Hancock's superior thighs.
"What shall we do on Christmas?" She asked with a expectant smile on her face.
"We can have everyone at home and just do a normal Christmas at home with everyone. A warm little celebration would be best". Alex said and turned around. His face was towards her navel.
"That would be good as well". Hancock nodded in agreement.
Hancock didn't talk anymore and quietly started to clean Alex's ears with the buds that he gave her.
These were specially made for the ears to clean them. They didn't push the wash forward and actually cleaned it safely.
Hancock was expertly using them and cleaning his ears while humming a tune. She loved to do these small things for Alex and take care of him.
Very soon, it was getting dark and Thomas had hurried hime after listening to Martha in worry.
He was sitting on the couch opposite to Hancock and Alex with Martha accompanying him.
Alex was still laying his head on Hancock's lap and Hancock was playing with her phone.
Suddenly, a click was heard and Bruce came out from behind the big clock near the wall. It was like an elevator behind it.
"Mr self important grown up is here". Martha said sarcastically and looked at Bruce with a vicious gaze.
Bruce's lips twitched and he knew that things were not good from the moment Martha spoke.
'You snitched on me with Zatanna. Now take my vengeance'. Alex was floating while looking at him.
"What happened Mom?" Bruce asked while walking towards Martha with a harmless and peaceful smile.
"Oh, you don't know what happened?" Martha narrowed her eyes and looked at him like she was going to eat him alive.
Bruce hesitated but quickly took control of his face. His face was serene like nothing ever happened.
"Alex told me that you took in a foster son". Martha put her hands on her waist and looked at him with a glare.
Bruce was suddenly taken aback and finally understood why the Pandemonium happened today.
"Mom, Listen". Bruce said calmly and tried to speak.
"What is there to listen. You have taken him in for a month and still did not plan to show us our supposed Grandson". Martha didn't listen and immediately started firing her shots.
"Mom". Bruce wanted to say something but was cut off again.
"Get that child in front of me right now". Martha demanded in a strong voice.
"Son, this time, you made a mistake and you have to listen to your mother". Thomas stood up beside Martha and said solemnly.
"Go get the poor child and introduce him to us". Martha commanded and sent Bruce away without letting him make excuses.
Bruce sighed and gave Alex the side eye before heading straight back to the Batcave.
Shortly after, he came back with a nervous Dick following behind him.
"Oh, so this is our grandson". Thomas smiled and walked over to Dick.
He patted Dick's shoulder and nodded his head again and again.
"Hello G-Grandpa". Dick said awkwardly. He wasn't used to this thing and just did what he felt right.
"Come on, Say Grandma first. Forget this old Man". Martha came up and asked took Dick's hand affectionately.
"G-Grandma". Dick called again with a smile. He actually liked this and wasn't opposed to this at all.
"Don't worry, you will be a member of this family. You don't meed to be awkward and a stranger". Martha said and led Dick to a couch.
Bruce was totally ignored in the background. The poor guy lamented the day he brought Dick here.
"Hehe, Bruce, you should learn something from me". Alex patted his chest and laughed happily.
Bruce's lips twitched and he wanted to smack one into Alex's face properly. He just couldn't stand that smug grin of his.
He could withstand taunting from anyone and wouldn't even change his expression but when it came to Alex. He just couldn't control himself and had to retaliate.
"Oh, I totally forgot. Where's Koriand'r?" Alex asked and looked over to Hancock.
"She is on a shopping trip with Barbara today". Hancock answered.
Alex nodded his head and just calmly sat back down on the couch while looking at Dick being pampered by Martha.
'The kid should be fine'. Alex thought and smiled to himself.
"I am going to the WatchTower". Bruce excused himself and first went back to the Batcave to wear his costume before going to the WatchTower.
