The Thing About Violet's

New Directions

Mada and Violet went around the traditional market and their activities completely drained all the cash in Mada's wallet because, Violet did not allow Mada to bid again. Mada could only smile widely and relented accepting Violet's request.

Mada turned to Violet as she walked beside her, saying, "I am the king of bargaining. I'm used to living alone and used to frugality so, bidding is a must for me. But, on this day Mada could not bargain at all, Huuuffttt!"

Violet chuckled amusedly, "Well I pity you as much as the seller. They are just making money" said Violet.

"Where do you know they're making all the money? if they don't have more than enough income, they won't sell anymore"

"I don't like to bargain. First I pity the seller, second the bargain is just a waste of time, right? If we just pay for what we want, we can save a few minutes, right?" Violet turned to Mada with a big smile and Mada immediately echoed her laughter, "Yeeaahh, you are always right Love"

As they walked towards the front door of the traditional market, they went back across the dawet seller and the dawet seller immediately shouted to Mada, "Mada! come here for a minute, son! There's something I want to tell you"

Mada walks to the tavern and lazily, Violet follows Mada. Violet walked lazily to the tavern because she felt anxious in case, the dawet seller will say things that will make him feel awkward again in front of Mada and in front of other dawet buyers.

However, reality was different from Vuolet's shadow. The dawet seller said a few surprising words to Mada and Violet. The hawker said excitedly, "Mom just wants to tell you that the day before your Mama died, there was a beautiful woman with thick make-up in an expensive suit, approaching your mother who is eating bawet here. I don't know Mada, maybe this story is no longer important to you but, I feel like I need to tell you"

Mada and Violet then sat down. Mada then looked at the dawet seller's mother and asked, "Is the woman like this?" Mada showed a picture of her with Chery Elruno Darmawan's family while she was still in the United States.

The dawet seller shook his head, "The one on your phone is very pretty. Much prettier than the woman who approached your mother here at that time. It wasn't the woman on your phone that came to your mom back then"

"Who is that woman, Mom? Is that woman a resident around here? do you shop in this market often?" mada asked while putting her phone back in her cloth pants pocket.

"Mom also saw the woman for the first time. The woman has never shopped here. It was the first and last time I saw the woman" replied the dawet seller

"How's his face?" tanya Mada later.

"She wears a thick and complete makeup. His face is not friendly" said the dawet seller.

"What was my mother's reaction at the time?" ask Mada.

"Your mother looks surprised then when your mother spontaneously wants to shift her seat, the woman holds your Mama's arm and whispers something to your Mama and Mama you buy a shock at that time. I don't know what the woman whispered, I can't hear it"

Mada is back with Violet. Violet then took Mada to sit down and Violet then asked the dawet seller, "Mom can still remember her face?"

"still. I'm very good at remembering someone's face. The proof, Mother can immediately recognize Mada right, just now" said the dawet seller.

"Did you have a blank paper and a pen or pencil?" ask Violet.

"There was. Momentarily grab it" the hawker stood up and ran small towards the back.

Not so long ago the dawet seller named Mother Darmi was again sitting in front of Violet and put blank paper with a pencil.

"What do you want?" mada asked while looking at Violet.

"I can draw. I will try to draw the woman's face based on the image and explanation of Mother Darmi" said Violet as she grabbed a pencil and said to Ms. Darmi, "What are the characteristics of the woman, Mom?'

Mada looked at Violet in awe and love and looked at the white paper where Violet had started to scratch the pencil on the paper along with the explanation that came out.

After finishing the sketch of her drawing, Violet lifted the paper and handed it to Bu Darmi, "Is this really the woman's face, Mom?"

Ms. Darmi grabbed the paper and smiled broadly, "Well! You are great at drawing. Aye right. The face of the woman you drew is very similar to the face of the woman who met Mama Mada here at that time"

Mada nodded her head in understanding. Then he and Violet looked at Bu Darmi and thanked him and said goodbye to rush home to see Deo.

Arriving at home, Mada put all her groceries into the fridge and rushed to join the living room. He narrowed his eyes when he saw that Deo had been sitting next to him and began to discuss the results of the face painting that Violet had managed to make.

Mada stood in front of him Violet and Deo then said with a stern look and tone to Violet, "Vio, you moved here!"

Violet and Deo simultaneously raised their faces to stare at Mada.

"A man and a woman cannot sit next to each other. Vio, quickly move here!"

Violet sighed deeply then got up and sat down on the single chair. Mada smiled happily to see Violet obey him and he gasped in surprise when he turned to Deo because Deo was glaring at him.

Mada sat in a single chair in front of him Deo and said casually, "Don't look up like that, it's a lonely soul mate if you're always yelling like that"

Deo shook his head and said, "Basic crazy!"

"Where, can Violet's drawings give us clues?" ask Mada.

"I've sent this sketch to headquarters and haven't got a reply" Deo said.

Mada patted her thighs with both palms and said, "I can't wait to hear from your headquarters. I hope there's a hint from the picture"

"You wait for news from the headquarters. I'll cook breakfast for us" Violet got up and the two men turned to Violet and asked in a compact manner, "You can cook, right?"

Violet looked at the two with a mischievous smile, "Come away"

"Then let me cook. Entar Deo can faint eat your cooking. If I'm used to it" said Mada while rising.

Violet glared at Mada and Deo immediately threw a question, "Are you used to it?"

Mada looked at Deo, "Vio my ex. You know that. So, about Vio's cooking, I'm the one who really knows how awesome the cooking is"

Violet giggled amusedly and said, "Since I got married, I learned to cook with my Mama so, it's safe. Sit quietly, my children! Mama's gonna cook for you, hohohohoho" Violet then turns around and walks into the kitchen.

Mada sat back down and met with Deo and they then echoed their laughter seeing Violet's ridiculous attitude.

Violet cooks rice in place of cooking rice then she fries omelets, her signature dish. Then cook the chicken soup and finish it. Violet only mastered those two dishes. Violet is always lazy to cook fried rice and lazy to make sambal because she hates to knead in cobek even though she knows, Mada really likes sambal cobek and fried rice, Violet still will not make it.

Violet then went into the bathroom to take a bath after cooking she was sweating and feeling uneasy for that she rushed into the bathroom to take a shower.

Mada clandestinely continued to watch Violet's movements and had to endure the sudden arousal as she watched Violet curl her long hair, black and beautiful upward so that it shows her neck Violet smooth white silk. Mada subconsciously swallowed his saliva slowly because he was afraid, Deo would notice the beautiful hallucinations that wildly infiltrated his brain.

Mada grew increasingly clamorous as the fog overpowered her passion as she watched Violet begin to sweat. Round after circle of sweat Violet down her back neck Violet and make Violet look more sexy. Mada imagines her stepping closer to Violet and embraces Violet from behind and she kisses Violet on her back neck. The shadow that made his chest rise and fall made Mada instantly also become hot. Unknowingly he picked up the old and old edition magazines under the table then he wagged the magazine to get rid of his sultry and passion.

Deo looked at Mada and threw a question, "Outside the heavy rain. I'm cold, how are you even hot? are you sick?"

"Take care of you, don't mind me! Continue your work! how has there been an answer from your headquarters" said Mada while continuing to flick through the magazine he held.

"Come here and see!" Deo told Mada to sit next to her laptop. Mada immediately got up, ran small and sat down next to him Deo. He stared at the laptop screen with a frown on his forehead.
