Broken Promises, Shattered Dreams
Cars flew by, as the sky darkened. Was this the world we all lived in? Is this the city I grew up in? So much had happened. Pain. Anger. Hate... Hate... it was such a strong word, but it was the only word that could describe how I felt. How I felt towards him...
The Batmobile flew by. Chasing another villian. I couldn't help but snort at the thought of some kid trying to protect home. It gives back memories during my youth... the youth we all shared, till he left. Everything changed. I changed. I knew it, and part of me hated it. Like I said, everything changed.
He had promised me the world. He had promised me my dreams come true. But he couldn't keep his promise. She came back. He went back to her. I could feel pain, anger, hate growing inside of me. I didn't show it then. But now, now I was showing it. I knew they could see it. He didn't say anything about it. How could he? He was in much pain like I was. Betrayed by the one man we both loved. He loved as a son, I loved as a lover...
Several cars flew by again. Compared to most nights, it was quiet. I liked it like this. It gave me a lot of personal time to think. To think about my life now. My life with my husband, Sam. He was patient with me. He took care of me. Something that reminded me off him. But there was one difference. Sam stuck around. I learnt to move on again. I started a new life. Than he came back. And he expected everything to be what it was.
I could feel myself clenching my fist tightly. What did he expect from me, time and time again, he begged me to go back. To return to him. How could I? I wasn't about to let him hurt me again. I was happy with my life, I was happy with him. I wasn't about to give that up. I remembered the look on his face. Pain. Sadness. I didn't care. Maybe back than I would've. Maybe back than I would've gone back to him. But I changed.
The Batmobile flew by again, this time in the opposite direction. He was just a kid. There were secrests as well. I had to hear it from him. But we couldn't tell him. It would crush him. Ruin all hopes he had, already instilled in him. Bruce Wayne's son... Who wouldda thought that Waller would do such a thing. We didn't tell him. Only his brother, Tim. He was surprised as well. He promised... unlike his brother, he actually kept promises, something I had once wished he could do.
He had promised me the world. He had promised me my dreams come true. And again, he could never keep his promise. He could never, and he never will. He expected me to go back to him. He expected everything to be the same. But things changed. I've changed. The life we once had was only a dream. Only a memory. And I never wanted to go back there again.
