“There is a possibility that Natasha was behind this abduction but I also cannot rashly accuse without any clear evidence. Besides, Natasha hasn't called me in all this time,” said Kagendra. His voice sounded desperate.
Atep nodded, agreeing with Kagendra's opinion. “We can not rashly accuse others but we still have to be vigilant and it could be Natasha is the person behind this kidnapping.”
“Hm..”
“Can I ask you something?”
“What?”
“I hope Aa don't get angry with questions from me.”
“Tell me! Don't have any foul talk. I can already guess what you will ask.”
“Eh?” Atep was surprised by Kagendra's statement.
“You want to ask me if I still love Natasha until you assume that I'm defending her. Yes, right?”
Atep was surprised by what Kagendra said. What Kagendra said was in line with what he had in mind.
“How? Is there still a name Natasha in Aa's heart?” ask Atep to vent.
Kagendra sighed heavily.
“The woman's name evaporated before Iyah left me. So, do not ever have a single thought if there are still other women's names in my heart besides Sadiyah,” said Kagendra firmly and confidently.
“Sorry if I have any negative thoughts towards Aa. I am only worried because Aa once loved that woman to the point of hurting Teh Iyah.”
“That's the past and I'll never want to remember that bad past. I hope you also never bring up my past. Understand?”
“Iya, A. Sorry.”
“Don't tell me the news of Aras and Aris's abduction to Iyah. I don't want him to be thinking about this.”
“Good, A.”
“You know Lena to be normal in front of Iyah. Call him now!” kagendra's orders.
“Good, A.”
Atep immediately called Alena and instructed as Kagendra asked. Alena who heard the instructions from her brother delivered Atep trying to keep the look of his face to look ordinary. He was in the toilet and immediately washed his face so as not to see the lines of his tears.
Both of Kagendra's parents have arrived at the hospital. Before they met Sadiyah, Alena told him about the bad news that had befallen Faras and Faris. He asked Yusuf and Indriani to cover up the news of this calamity from Sadiyah.
“Len, have you called the house person? What about Aris and Aras? Already home from school?”
“Already, Tea. Nani said, Aras and Aris went home from school and took a shower and fell asleep. They seem to be tired at school. So, Nani has not had time to tell them that their twin sister has been born,” replied Alena carefully.
“Yes, it's okay. Tomorrow you bring them here. Teteh wants to meet Aras and Aris. Suddenly very kangen with them.”
“Iya, Tea. Oh yeah, my mom and dad came too. Mom is going to the toilet for a while if you are still in the cafeteria drinking tea.”
“Aa where?” Sadiyah asked where Kagendra was.
“Aa go home first to change clothes. Soon also until.”
“Aa have not eaten yet? He said he hasn't eaten since morning. Tetuh worried Aa was sick again because of late eating.”
“Eh, already Tea. Mang Edi came to bring food for Aa.”
“Oh, good indeed. Poor Aa starving from the morning said she only had time to eat bread and tea.”

“Teh Iyah is with mom and brother. Lena also told me mom and dad that Aras and Aris were kidnapped. Abah says that if Aa needs help, you will deploy all his men.”
“Aa has already spread Aa's men all over the corner of this city. Aa will ask for help if Aa feels unable. For now, Aa's men can still handle everything.”
Like Kagendra who has an agent group, his father still has the remnants of his struggle in youth. Although most of Joseph's men were not young, their skills were still reliable and not inferior to the young. Even their experience was very helpful in their work.
Kagendra entered Sadiyah's room. He saw his wife pumping breast milk for their twins.
“Have many ASI come out?”
“Alhamdulillah, many already. The doctor said, ASI Iyah can meet their needs so do not need to be given additional formula milk,” said Sadiyah sumringah.
“Mana Charcoal and Aris. Why don't they want to see Iyah? Are they angry that Iyah gave birth to their twin sister and feel Iyah ignored?”
It's Sadiyah's second day in the hospital. For two days, Sadiyah kept asking for the whereabouts of Faras and Faris. Kagendra could no longer hide the truth. He looked at Sadiyah's face.
“It's not so, dear. Aras and Aris cannot be sad because of the birth of their sisters. You also know that they are always excited whenever they talk about their twin sister.”
“But why haven't they been here?”
“Sayang..” Kagendra breathed heavily.
“What?”
“Aa hope you hear the news that Aa will convey with a cool head.”
“Aa want to tell you what? About Aras and Aris? What's with them? They sick? Quickly tell!”
“Can be quiet first?”
“Daddy will not be able to calm down if something bad happens to them. Why didn't Aa tell you from yesterday?” Sadiyah was beginning to sob.
“Listen, Honey. Whatever happens, Aa is their father. I will sacrifice anything for them. Understand?”
Sadiyah nodded at Kagendra's words but was different from her heart that could not calm down. He was worried about Faras and Faris. Indeed, since yesterday, Sadiyah's heart was not calm but she did not know the reason. He just felt so missed Faras and Faris and was eager to see their faces.
However, some of the reasons stated by Kagendra, Alena and Atep convinced him that Faras and Faris were fine even though his heart was still not calm. Sadiyah also often looked at the photos of Faras and Faris on her phone.
“What happened to Aras and Aris? They don't get sick, do they? Or accident? They weren't accidents, were they?”
Kagendra.
“Listen, Sweetheart. Actually Aa doesn't want to tell this news to you. I hope the problem is over before I tell you. But it looks like you should know what happened to them.”
“Do not keep stale, A. Just tell me to the point!”
“Aras and Aris kidnapped.”
“Why?” tanya Sadiyah lirih's.
“Aa also did not know the reason they were kidnapped. Aa felt like she had no enemies.”
“Natasha must have kidnapped them. It must have been him who kidnapped Aras and Aris.” Sadiyah was hysterical when she realized that Natasha might have kidnapped Faras and Faris.
