''Ah! How wonderful, a nice shiny red car!'' Violet thinks. ''Jovan is without a vehicle, so this is a fabulous treasure! Jovan is sure to like it!''

Violet knows to leave the scene immediately, she is very clever, that's why she never gets caught!
And she only seeks treasure from vacant houses! Nowhere else....Unless her Boss makes her come along for a community caper!?

She arrives home quietly and puts the new cars in her backpack.
But someone is awake at home. Someone who has been waiting up, and feeling guilty and missing her!

''Violet, I have been worried sick! Where have you been? I was near frantic, and missing you, terribly!" says Elvis truthfully.
He does love this sweet girl, very much! He is just no longer In Love with her.

"But Elvis, I didn't want to be at home, and see you with ...''
Elvis cuts her off. "Listen my dear, I got ahead of myself and asked Victoria to move in! Please don't be mad with me! I'm sure we can all work this out! I bet you both will end up being great friends! And that you will come to love her as much as I do, well, not like I do, but very much!"

"No Elvis, I don't wish to live with you two, it will be too hard on me, and would probably make Victoria feel uncomfortable, if I'm here! You can buy me out of the house if you want it." says Violet.
"Also, I have met someone, someone very special to me. And it's my hope that things will continue to grow between us and hopefully..."

"OMG Violet! Please don't tell me of other men who are in love with you!!! Don't you know how hurtful that is, when I still love you?! It's heart wrenching to hear it!" says Elvis, then he pauses and realizes how selfish he sounds. Gosh poor Violet must have felt this way! He didn't mean to! Now he feels like a j'erk. His emotions, raw.
"I'm sorry honey, I have no right to say that or to feel this way. Please forgive me, Violet"

''That's ok Elvis, what you're feeling seems only natural when people still care for one another. I hope we can remain friends."
It's a very difficult mix of emotions, for them.
"Yes, of course we will remain friends!" says Elvis, "I will never stop caring about you."

Elvis looks sad and says "Can we seal it kiss, Violet? A last kiss goodbye?"
"No, Elvis. A kiss will only make things even more complicated."

Violet turns to go.
"Ok then, But can I have a hug, at least?" he asks, already starting to reach his arm across her shoulders.
"Yes, of course."

These sad sweet goodbyes, seem to follow Violet in her wake. Her gentleness leaves a permanent mark, like a brand seared on the hearts of the men who love her. They secret this away, and hold it very dear.
Violet's heart is but a shattered mosaic, held together with only the glue of her hope to find an everlasting love.

Violet drives away, back to Jovan's house, where she had been invited to stay the night with him.
She quietly gets in her jammies and slides back into his warm bed.
She dreams of him, ever hopeful that he's The One.
