“Natasha must have kidnapped them. That's for sure.” Sadiyah was hysterical when she realized that Natasha might have kidnapped Faras and Faris.
“We have no evidence that Natasha kidnapped them.”
“Aaargh...” Sadiyah was really hit by the news of her twins being kidnapped. He blames Kagendra for everything that happened to their son. He was angry that Kagendra did not support his assumption that Natasha was the mastermind behind the kidnapping of Faras and Faris.
“Quiet, Dear.” Kagendra tried to calm Sadiyah who was screaming hysterically.
“Everything because of you. If only you hadn't come back into my quiet life, none of this would have happened. Me and the children are already living comfortably in the village without you. Go ye! You only give pain and suffering. Aaargh..”.
Sadiyah struggled to escape from Kagendra's arrest. After his strength was exhausted by thrashing and banging Kagendra's chest, he bit Kagendra's shoulder as hard as he could in the hope that Kagendra would be in pain and release himself.
Blood seemed to seep from the kameja that Kagendra wore but he did not release his embrace of Sadiyah.
“Quiet, Darling. We can definitely find Aras and Aris. They're smart kids. Surely they can survive.”
“Restore Charcoal and Aris!” Sadiyah roared again.
After Sadiyah learned of the kidnapping of Faras and Faris, she did not want to meet anyone including carrying and breastfeeding the twins she had just born.
All day long, if not daydreaming, then Sadiyah would cry hysterically. Alena and Atep try to replace Kagendra and Sadiyah as surrogate parents for their newly born twin niece.

It's the fifth day since Faras and Faris' abduction. Kagendra was getting frustrated with the situation. He began to doubt the ability of his men to find Faras and Faris.
Bugh.bugh…
“You are useless. In the past, you guys didn't manage to find my wife and now you can't find my kids either. Fuck all of you!”
Kagendra began to vent his frustration by beating up his men.
“Sabar, Ndra. Don't lose control like this. Abah has begun to move all Abah's men to help you find Aras and Aris. They are Abah's grandchildren. Abah has the right to help find them. Lower your ego. Don't hesitate to accept Abah.”'s help
“But, Bah..”
“Do not be prestige to receive help. Remember that! Abah is not someone else. Abah is your father and grandfather of your children. The reputation of you and your group will not fall just because of receiving advice from people like Abah and Abah's men. We are old but we have much more experience than you.”
Kagendra nodded after hearing his father's words.
“Kang, we found a little hint. Our people saw there was a small child wandering in the area around the bus terminal.” One of Joseph's men named Bahar reported, Yusuf did get his men to call him Kang, in contrast to Kagendra who was called the Boss.
“Two kids?” yusuf asked enthusiastically.
“Only one person, Kang,” replied Bahar while showing the figure of a small child on the screen of his phone.
“Ah, this is Aras or Aris, yes?” Joseph takes Bahar's cell phone and shows it to Kagendra.
“It's Aris!” exclaim Kagendra lantang. “Mang Bahar is sure that there is only one child?” ask Kagendra.
“Iya, Den. There is only one little child in sight.”
“Bos!” Rudi came in a hurry.
“What's up, Rud?”
“There's a big clue, Boss. Our man in charge of trailing Natasha found something suspicious. Natasha is seen coming to an empty warehouse in the south.”
“We'll be heading there soon, Rud.” Kagendra hurry.
“Don't be too reactive, Ndra. We've found a clue that Aris has been spotted in the bus terminal area. We need to find and rescue Aris first. Abah couldn't imagine a child as small as Aris wandering around the terminal. What if he's hungry and cold? Abah will send Abah's men to search for Aris. You sent your men to ambush Natasha.”
“Iya, Bah.”
Drr…
Kagendra's phone is vibrating. An unknown number appeared on Kagendra's phone screen. Kagendra rarely receives calls from unknown numbers, but now he hopes that people who contact him give the slightest clue about the whereabouts of his children.
“Good day, Sir. I am the Great of the Cinam** polsek**. Is it true that I spoke to the father of a boy named Faris?”
“Siang, Sir. It's true I'm with Faris' father. Is Faris with you?”
“Betul, Sir. Faris was delivered to our office. He claimed to have been stuck in the road for two days until finally delivered to our office.”
“Thank you, Sir. I'll be here soon to pick up my son. Can I talk to my son?”
It was heard that the police officer gave his phone to Faris.
“Hallo, Dad.”
“Aris? You're right Aris?” ask Kagendra impatiently.
“Iya, Dad. Daddy come quickly. Aris scared.” Faris started sobbing.
“Do not worry. I'll pick you up soon, son. You alone? Where's the rate?”
Faris nodded without realizing that her father could not see her nodding his head.
“Aras is still in the shed, Dad. Aras was beaten up by the bad guy. Aris also wanted to be beaten with the bad guy but Aras was beaten. Dad came quickly. Poor Aras.”
“Iya, Son. You wait with the Police. Don't go anywhere!”
Tears melt from Kagendra's eyes. He was relieved and scared at once. He was relieved that Faris was able to escape from the group of criminals and be in a safe place with the police. However, Kagendra was afraid of Faras' condition that he did not know. He believes the criminals vent their frustration because Faris managed to escape to Faras. He recalled a bad experience when he was kidnapped. He could feel how Faras and Faris were in the grip of the criminals.
Kagendra rushes towards the police station accompanied by Rudi and some of his men. It took about an hour to get to the police station.
“Aris!” Kagendra shouted to Faris as he saw her sitting on a chair accompanied by several policewomen.
“Dad!” Faris immediately ran to hug Kagendra. He poured out all the fear, fatigue and sadness he endured these few days in tears. After escaping from the captors' grip and wandering the streets of the city, Faris braced himself to stay afloat for his twin brother, who is still held captive.
The scene of father and son hugging made the people who witnessed it shed tears. Faris had indeed told a little story of the kidnapping she had experienced to the female police officers who had surrounded her. It seems that Faris does have the ability to tell stories well. The policewoman also felt sadness when Faris told her story.
“Aris injured?” Kagendra asked as she carefully examined Faris' body. He did not see any serious external injuries. There were only a few minor injuries to Faris' knee and elbow.
Faris shakes. He shrank his tears and snot with the back of his hand.
“Aris was unharmed but Aras was injured. Those bad guys mukulin Aras,” shootout Faris.
“What do those bad guys do?” ask Kagendra grimly.
“Sorry, Sir. I am the Great who called Mr.” A police officer approached and interrupted Kagendra.
“Sorry, Mr. Police. I'm Kagendra, father of Faris.”
“Finely, you should not ask Faris anything. I'm afraid Faris is traumatized if she recalls the bad things that happened to her.”
“Aris is fine, Mr. Police. Aris must rescue Aras. Aras was beaten for Aris. Aras protects Aris and does not want Aris hit. Those bad guys hit Aras, Dad. He was about to hit Aris but even hit Aras. Aris is afraid to continue crying because Aras hit.” Faris told me in a sentence that was less complicated because of the worry of his twin brother.
Luckily Kagendra managed to capture the intent of Faris. He was relieved because it seemed that Faris did not experience trauma for the incident that happened to him. He tried to tell the details of the events experienced by himself and Faras.
“Aris knows the people who beat up Aras?” ask Kagendra carefully.
“Pak Kagendra..” sela Agung.
“It's okay, Mr. Police. I can assure you that my child has not been traumatized. I know my son. He's trying to give us clues according to his child's brain capacity. My son is a smart boy. I'm sure he'll give you an important clue.”
Agung nodded at Kagendra's explanation.
“A Endra!” the voice of a woman.
