Chapter 1 - Tragedy

On a sunny morning, a middle-aged woman was walking towards one of the rooms on the second floor, her house. She knocked on the door, calling the name of the child who didn't seem to have woken up yet.

"Violet, wake up! It's already seven o'clock, we'll be late for a walk," said Dionne. But her guess was wrong, the child immediately opened the door, carried a suitcase and looked neatly like someone who was about to go out.

"I've been awake for a long time. Mother should have woken Louella," Violet snapped, as she came out of her room, pulling the suitcase containing her personal belongings.

Seeing the behavior of the child who was so indifferent and cold made Dionne shake her head. Unlike Violet, Louella is an active, sociable and friendly child so many people like her, unlike Violet.

"Hu from small to big, the child never changes. From fifth grade, she only had one strange friend," Dionne grumbled, who then stepped into Louella's room, waking her favorite child.

After a few minutes....

"Mom, what should we have for breakfast before we leave? I'll make a sandwich first, okay?" Luoella got up from her chair, stepped into the kitchen. But only a few steps...

"I've made pasta for breakfast this morning." Violet placed her pasta on the table, then sat down on the empty chair.

"Wow, I'm always busy, I'm usually really lazy to do this," Dionne said as she sat in her chair and took Violet's pasta.

"How lazy is it? I'm working, looking for money to meet the economic needs of this family. Even I wake up at three in the morning, go to work. Life is at stake!!" Violet snapped.

"Yes, it's your own fault that you work as a secret agent. There are many jobs that are even harder to find," answered Dionne, which made Violet so irritated that she hit the table.

"That's been my dream since I was little! After all, even though my job is dangerous, once on a mission I can earn a lot of money and you guys enjoy it, right?!" Violet snapped.

plakk...

Dionne threw a slap right in the face of her eldest child which made Violet speechless as well as Louella who was surprised and chose not to defend her sister but threw her away.

"You're here, just because you're already big! You can earn your own money! So you're being arbitrarily?! Remember! Mother was at stake for giving birth to you, but your reward is like this!" shouted Dionne.

"You know, Violet, she's getting more and more arrogant every day because it's her who pays for our lives!" said Luoella. Hearing that made Violet completely silent, not uttering a word. Dionne slapped his face again but Violet still didn't do anything.

"The bigger it's not getting better, it's even more depraved! Don't worry, in two years Luoella will graduate from college and work! So we don't use your money anymore!" said Dionne who then sat back at the dining table and enjoyed her breakfast. Likewise with Violet and Louella.

A few hours later....

After breakfast, the three of them headed off to a hill for a weekend getaway before getting busy again with their respective duties. They arrived at the top of the hill with a journey that took about two hours.

"Finally arrived," said Dionne as she got out of her car as well as his two children. Violet hurriedly unloaded their belongings from the car after which they placed them under the tree. Meanwhile, Luoella decided to roll out the red carpet and then arrange the cutlery and the food they had brought.

Meanwhile, Dionne...

"Hmm Violet, come here first!" called Dionne, Violet rushed to her mother who called her.

"Why?" she asked dryly.

"Hmm, let's accompany you around the hill at the same time, let's take pictures, okay?" Dionne replied, Violet nodded her head. The two of them started to walk around the hills while occasionally taking photos in some places that looked interesting.

Thirty minutes later...

Dionne stopped her steps after walking around as well as taking photos on the hill. She stood on the edge of the hill, enjoying the beautiful natural scenery.

"Want a photo here?" Violet asked as she prepared Dionne's cell phone that had been entrusted to her. Dionne shook her head and went back to enjoying the view, accompanied by her eldest child.

"It's cool here, Violet," said Dionne, Violet didn't answer but Dionne didn't mind it.

"Oh, by the way, Girl, I'm sorry for being angry with you. But you have to remember too! You can't be arrogant even though you've been looking for your own money," said Dionne, who apologized and advised the introverted eldest son. But Violet kept not responding, which surprised Dionne.

"Why are you so quiet, kid?" Dionne bullied Violet, who had been silent all this time. Until...

"I'm going to put an end to this," Violet screwed the gun on Dionne. Dionne turned around, staring at the child who was ready to release a bullet.

"Girl? y-you why?"

"No need to behave like that! I've had enough of your behavior towards me, all this time!" said Violet who looked very resentful with Dionne.

"Violet, what are you doing? Why are you suddenly brandishing a gun like this? You can't possibly kill your mother, right? Mother has risked her life to give birth to you, you know!" asked a worried Dionne. Violet smiled sarcastically, she brought her gun to Dionne's head.

"So since you gave birth to me with your life at stake, will it make me care? Nope! The mistakes you made are still mistakes that can't be fixed and can't be replaced by anything. You still don't realize what mistakes you've made especially me?! are you really the Dajjal?" Violet said.

"But.... what have I done, girl? Why are you so vengeful?" said Dionne. Violet paused and then shook her head.

"What a devil! You don't realize that you really set me apart from Luoella! You love Louella so much, glorify her like a God while I'm being trampled on, used like a slave! You, at my young age, you told me to earn a lot money that you then spend with your favorite child! Plus you always torture me both mentally and physically. Even when I didn't make any money for two months, you beat me and even swore at me to die quickly! What kind of mother are you?!" Violet said which made Dionne silent.

Just as Violet was expressing all her feelings all along, Luoella heard that. She couldn't do anything at this time, especially since her mother was being brandished with a real gun by her sister. She didn't want to just sacrifice her life for her mother because Luoella also still wanted to enjoy life.

"Any last words?" Violet asked coldly. Dionne did not answer at all because she was still shocked to hear her girl expression. Until the end...

Dor....

"Sister!!! mother!!!!" Violet drew her gun and lowered her head. At a glance, she glanced at the body of her parents who fell from the top of the hill after being shot by her.
