"A-ak wa-yi, i-wu." The kidnapper sir was still staring at Bu Yanti, while saying words that we did not understand. I, Mr. Thugs and Mr. Yanti, all look at the kidnapper's wife. We hope the kidnapper's wife can translate what the kidnapper said.


"I mean, mother's baby. Is that right, sir?" The kidnapper's wife asked her husband to make sure the translation was correct. The kidnapper nodded. Unexpectedly, the kidnapper suddenly raised his left hand in front of his chest. He cried and said,


"A-ap, a-ap." His left hand continued to shake in front of his chest.


"Mother knows me? The father said, baby mother, I mean mother of baby, right? the baby you kidnapped so many years ago, right, sir?" This time Bu Yanti began to understand the meaning of the words spoken by the kidnapper. The kidnapper still held his left hand in front of his chest as he said,


"A-ap, a-ap."


"Already, Sir. It's been. I have forgiven you." I looked at Bu Yanti with a little wonder. That easy as Bu Yanti forgave the kidnapper? Is it because Bu Yanti pity to see the condition of the kidnapper sir now? I'm actually the same, feeling sorry. But if you're going to forgive the mistake that kidnapped Mimbo, then. It shouldn't be that easy. Bu Yanti has been through the agony of losing her beloved son for about seven years. It wasn't a minute. Bu Yanti should have avenged all her pain during this time.


"Sir, I ask you please make sure that the baby this father is referring to is Mimbo, so that I am sure." Ms. Yanti asked the Thugs for help. The Thugs understand.


"Sir, sorry. Are you sure you know this mother as the mother of the baby you were selling?" Ask the Thugs to the kidnappers. The kidnapper nodded for sure. I got a little angry. Means that time, the kidnapper sir had time to lurk first, so he recognized the face of Bu Yanti. 'Basic!' I became damned in my heart, sir the kidnapper really wanted to kidnap. It's not kidding. I often hear on television that something like this is a planned crime. If it is reported to the authorities, the punishment is not light. So Bu Yanti shouldn't be so easy to just forgive the kidnapper sir. A man as bad as a kidnapper, sentenced to prison for how many years does not necessarily make him kapok. It's just forgiven, how could he be deterred?


"Mom, why is it so easy for you to forgive her? He's evil, Mom. He must get the punishment he deserves." With indignation I finally protested to Bu Yanti. I purposely spoke to him directly in front of the kidnapper sir, let him know that he was very evil. Ms. Yanti smiled. He rubbed my shoulder and said,


" The same reason you gave a million for her medical expenses. Wil knew exactly that he was the kidnapper." I looked at Bu Yanti in silence. Something shakes in this heart. I myself cannot give any reason for my actions. When my heart and mind ruled to take out the money, my hand immediately moved. Maybe so is Bu Yanti. Ms. Yanti doesn't need to have a reason to forgive the kidnapper. Bu Yanti just say 'forgiving' when God moves the heart of Bu Yanti to forgive. Only God has the power to turn back the hearts of men.


"Yes, Mom. Wil knows." I gave up on the understanding that had been so ingrained in the heart. The kidnapper took a deep breath, this time his face was no longer tense. But tears still wet his cheeks. He again brandished his one healthy hand as he said,


"h-huh, a-ap." Lips smile.


We're out of his house, kidnapper. The affair with the kidnapper sir could be said to be in order, at least for now.


After returning from the kidnapper's house, Bu Yanti's car was different directions with Si Putih and Bu Min's car. Bu Yanti hastened to my home again in Leuwi Goong. The Goons are still being asked to accompany. Bu Yanti wants Mr. Thugs to explain to Mimbo everything about Mimbo's true identity. The Thugs are happy to return to Leuwi Goong, to explain everything to Mimbo. He seemed very happy because his struggle so far to find Mimbo's biological parents had succeeded. I don't know what Mimbo's happiness was like when he found out that his biological parents were still there, and were in sight. It could be that Mimbo is screaming because he is very happy. Or it could be that Mimbo is crying. Because it was completely unexpected that the figure of the parents who had been considered not exist, was now present in front of him. I want to see the happiness of Mimbo meeting his mother, but I can't. I have to go back to Cirebon and go back to Garut again next week.

Arriving at Ms. Nita's house, something looks special. Mr. Nana seems to have memorized this house. He went straight to the room that last week was used by his father and grandmother to sleep in. We thought it was a surprise. Exciting surprise.because I think, it's a sign that the memory of Mr. Nana is gradually recovering, you are able to remember something that you once did.

The days passed quickly. Five months had me and Randi back and forth Garut-Cirebon to finish all the affairs in the two cities. The children of the sun are already fluent in reading, writing and basic counting. They are also tied to prayer. No one dares to leave the prayer, even if it is only one time. Their awareness of prayer is so strong. Perhaps because they often hear the advice of the sun-guiding brothers also from Mr. Ustadz that leaving the five prayers on purpose is the biggest sin. He who abandons it shall be punished and wrathful of God, and shall have dishonor in the world and the Hereafter.


About Mr. Nana, his condition is getting better.The doctor who treated him alone to feel amazed, because he said the development of Mr. Nana is amazingly good. Much better than other patients. The third plan of action that we practiced succeeded in making Nana's father aware that his son was now grown. When the third plan of action, I replaced Opik. Although for some time Mr. Nana was quite surprised, but because I always hold a plane box when near him, you gradually believe that I am his son who was lost. His son will always be near him. About Randi is my brother, little by little I have explained also to my father. Slowly I was able to accept that Randi was my brother, the first son of Aisha's mother. One thing that still feels weird to me, I don't call you Wil. I just call me Randi. It sounds strange in my ears. When I asked Grandma why she called me Randi, she said, my name was Randi, and my sister was Nandi. So dad was not wrong. Bu Nita also did not wrongly give the name Randi to the child he adopted from the orphanage. At that time Bu Nita did not know that the name of the adopted child was Nandi.


Now it's staying between me and Randi who should familiarize our ears to our new name. Our special name is special for Mr. Nana, I \= Randi, Randi \= Nandi. Hehe, it's a little dizzy. While accompanying the father and father called 'Randi', who spontaneously answered Randi's exact call first, not me.
