"How did you get this number?"

...

"No, I don't think that is a good idea."

...

"There is a reason she didn't tell you.  Your world is no place for me."

...

"I can't.  Goodbye."

Calypso hung up the cell phone Lian had given her and turned it off.  She didn't want another unexpected call from that man again.  The simple fact that she had met him went against everything she wanted.  She didn't want to meet her father, and she certainly didn't want to be recognized as his daughter.  It wasn't that she hated him or disliked him.  Calypso just wasn't made for that world.  Her world was set to a different tone -- it was darker, dirtier, rougher, and tougher.

After that call, she needed something else to keep her mind at ease.  She went upstairs to the ground floor of the Outsiders compound and started cooking Hamburger Helper.  It was her favorite meal.  Creamy Chicken Noodle was her comfort flavor.

Lian sighed. "I really think this is something you should tell them yourself, especially J'anna, but I can."

"I would tell them myself, but time is a factor and there's a child involved. My plane is leaving tonight and...J'anna and Mia are dealing with their own things, trying to put their own lives back together. I'm used to working alone on things. You know that.

In the meantime...I took the liberty of contacting Cerdian to check up on you." Tim says.

"Your due date isn't far off." he says. "How are you feeling?"

"I don't need to be checked on," Lian nearly snapped at him. "I'm not a child."

The mention of Cerdian made her body tense.

"I'm fine."

"So, in other words, you definitely need someone watching your back and something is wrong with Cerdian. You don't get snappy unless someone is right or close to it." Tim says in his tone that means "I was trained by Batman and I know what's going on".

"But if you say so, I won't press the issue."

"Look I know you mean well, but I really don't think he wants anything to do with me right now."

Tim didn't like the sound of this. He was aware that Lian and Cerdian have history, but he didn't really know how much. He hadn't pressed J'anna for anymore information, either, out of respect.

"If you don't trust him, I can find you someone else." he says.

"I do trust him. I just don't know if he wants to see me right now."

"All right, no problem." Tim says, reminding himself to contact Roy and keep him aware of the situation. Lian was terrible at seeking help or admitting when she was in a bad place; Tim was much the same way, so he knows some of the signs.

"Like I said, I'll be back as soon as I can, but I need to get on this before time runs out. Thanks, Lian." Tim says.
