"Eat first. Saving people's lives also requires a lot of energy" said Aldo who then opened the food brought by his wife.
"Brama, you eat too. There are four boxes of food brought by Lili" said Papa Tito.
Brama nodded his head. It is true what Aldo said if saving Nadeline does require a lot of energy. Moreover, they do not know with what obstacles will be faced later. Brama does not know much information about his ex-wife now. Brama immediately ate slowly even though he was actually not tasteful at all.
Papa Tito also decided to bring a driver to take turns driving. While Papa Tito who sat beside the wheel also ate because he had not had lunch at all. Their journey is quite far let alone see the maps passed by Ajeng cars.
"It looks like the car is heading towards the border area of the city. What'd he want to do there? Not that there is an area for scavengers and child beggars" asked Papa Tito who ate while looking at the maps on his phone.
"Don't Nadeline want to be sold there huh, pa? It is not that there it is common to see a small child become a scavenger and beggar in the area" Aldo chimed in.
"Don't just talk about you. My son can be bought rich. If that happens, I will immediately finish Ajeng with my own hands" said Brama with eyes that glistened furiously.
"Don't be rash, Brama. If you finish him, even you get the sap continues to be imprisoned. Later Nadeline who will take care of it if you are imprisoned" Papa Tito warned.
"Thank you for reminding me, um" said Brama while trying to neutralize his emotions.
Brama still continues to be provoked by his emotions if he remembers about his ex-wife. He wanted to finish off Ajeng with his own hands. But it is true what Papa Tito said that he should not be rash. They also do not know what the motives of Ajeng who brought this Nadeline.

"Nadeline, you're here first huh. Mama wants to go out for a while" Ajeng said, making Nadeline nod her head.
Nadeline chose silence and in comparison had to be yelled at again by her mother. Nadeline was convinced that her mother did not love her. Especially every time he asked for something he would be snapped. Unlike Lili who although not her birth mother but always loved her.
"Did Nadeline just run away? Especially this place is deserted. Nadeline believes that mama must have evil intentions with me" muttered Nadeline who was wary of her mother's actions.
Especially the surrounding area that is completely deserted. He looked at his mother who found two large men. He believes that the two men are thugs. Nadeline was afraid that something would happen that would make her unable to go home.
Innocently, Nadeline planned to run away. For him, the important thing is to survive from his mother first. He's going to the people's house to ask for help in getting home. Nadeline got out of the lucky car the door was unlocked.
"Save Nadeline, God. Nadeline just wants to go back to papa and meet the others. Nadeline does not want to be the same evil mama" muttered Nadeline berdo'a.
With a sneak, Nadeline went running towards the area of the village residents. The atmosphere is slightly dark, especially the day is already night and there is rarely street lighting. Nadeline continued running while holding her hungry stomach.
"Papa, please Nadeline.." he muttered as he continued running.

"alright. This is the money we promised you to bring a little boy here to make us beggars" said one of the thugs there.
"Gee... Thanks though. The boy was still in my car" said Ajeng, who stared brightly at the thick envelope in his hand.
He needs a lot of money and will also ask for a ransom to Brama. But the ransom certainly will never return Nadeline to Brama. That was the reason why he was acting so kindly towards Nadeline.
"Yes already. Let's take the kid. It's late, it will be more difficult if the child gets more fussy. There could be residents who hear his whining" said the thug.
Ajeng nodded his head then carried the two thugs to his car. When he got to the front of the car, Ajeng immediately opened the door and his eyes glared in disbelief. Nadeline wasn't in the car and her body shook violently.
"Did you guys see a kid get out of this car? This is a child that I brought not inside" cried Ajeng who was so surprised.
"Where do we know there's a little kid getting out of the car. Our guy just stood pretty far away from this car. So where's this little boy? We already paid you" exclaimed one of the impatient thugs.
"Yes help find dong. The person was here before I went to see you guys" said Ajeng no less upset to hear the thugs chattering.
Ajeng looked towards the surrounding to look for the existence of Nadeline. He believes that his son could not have gone far from here. The thugs also immediately helped look for. But for a few minutes they searched, there was no Nadeline.
"Return our money. All we need is that little boy. If you don't bring it, then don't expect us to give you the money" said one of the thugs.
"It can't be dong. I've come all the way here to bring the boy. But you guys just want to cancel everything and want to take this money" Ajeng said.
"But this is his son. Where can we give money if his son is not there" upset the thug.
One of the thugs just grabbed the envelope in Ajeng's hand. So there was a pull of the envelope. The other thugs just pushed Ajeng until the envelope came back on them.
Brugh...
"It's very rude of you guys" cried Ajeng who did not accept what the thugs did.
"Bodo. What we need is nothing so this money will come back to us" said the thug who later left.
Ajeng's two hands clenched tightly. He did not think that his plan had failed completely. He can be cared for by a small child who in fact is his son. If Nadeline ever met Brama again, her life would be at risk. Brama can't just let the man who kidnapped Nadeline go free.

Citt...
Dugh...
"Is that what passed in front of us?" exclaimed Aldo who immediately stopped his car quickly when he saw something crossing.
There was even a sound like it hit something. It gets them out of the car. They don't want to be hit by people later. Moreover, the condition of a very quiet environment like this will be difficult to ask for help.
"Nadeline..."
