[That gets Kal to raise an eyebrow.] Did you? Because then you should consider yourself lucky. Batman is... well, he's my best friend but even I have to admit the man is kind of a recluse. It's hard to get a glimpse at him, let alone meet him unless you're a criminal.

[Which should be a flashing red light with 'danger' written in it and an alarm for everyone else, but Kal just assumes the girl got lucky. He knows Hayley hides more than what she shows when it comes to him, but the extremes she's able to get haven't even crossed his mind.

Mostly because she's doing her job right: Kal does see her as the little girl she pretends to be. Smart girl, clever girl, but still a little girl to his eyes.]

Well... I've known him for decades. We didn't always see face to face but now he's my best friend and... I trust him with my life, quite literally.
