Substitute Woman
Kidnapped

"Who called? " ask Kartika curious.

"Tau, it's weird. He asked me to meet him at port x" Kanaya replied.

"I'll go first" he said to Kartika.

"Ntar first, I'm with you. Fear of the bad guys, let us thump the bad guys later. We used to make thugs in the hospital entrance market for a month" Kartika said while raising his eyebrows.

"No, he asked me to come alone. I'll call you later if I get something" he said then left his friend's shop.

Kanaya went to her son's school first to check on his son's condition in good condition. He thought maybe it was just a little bluff for him, but on the other hand he was curious about the figure of the caller earlier.

"Tik, if you pick up Raisya please take my son too. Don't forget it".

"You guys take them home, if they say there's any more business. Don't tell me about the weird phone I got just now" Kanaya said.

"What's up, Nay? Kok seems terrible anyway. I am your samperin yes" said Kartika worried.

"It's okay. I'm doing fine. It's still in school, just to the harbor. My heart told me to go there, like something was wrong" Kanaya tried to guess about her feelings.

"Then don't go there, already know something is wrong" Kartika also felt a little upset, already knew there was something strange still to be visited. Like the word, already know there is a time hole still want to be passed.

"Look, if there's anything, I'll call you first".

"See yes... " Kanaya turned off her phone, then drove her car to port x.

The atmosphere in the harbor was very crowded and he was confused about which way to go. As he walked down the harbor, a call came in, apparently from the number.

"You walk straight after that turn right next to the blue plastic barrel there's an alley. Then you turn right if you find an intersection. Later someone will pick you up to meet me" the call was dropped after he spoke, Kanaya had not yet answered. Maybe he was willing to retaliate after earlier Kanaya turned off her call first.

Kanaya followed the instructions of the caller earlier, he waited for about ten minutes at the place said stranger who called him. After that came a little boy in his ten years may approach him.

"Pian was told to call ulun" said the child speaking banjar.

("You were told to follow me")

"Oh yes" Kanaya nodded and followed him from behind. He invites Kanaya to walk around the alley which makes Kanaya a little confused to memorize the path. Until they arrive at a building that looks like a warehouse.

"Lajui pian came in, pian was blocked" said the little boy telling kanaya to go inside. There was little doubt in his heart to step up, but with a bismillah he steadied and steeled himself to enter the warehouse because he was curious as to who exactly was trying to play a trick on him.

("Quick you're in, you've been waiting")

Kanaya went into the warehouse and was not seen by anyone. Many times he tried to grill but no one answered. Suddenly the door closed and locked, seemingly locked from the outside. Kanaya repeatedly banged and called the little boy. He immediately contacted Kartika while panicking like this.

"Sir, I think I was framed" Kanaya said directly to the point.

"Please take care and make sure my children are safe at home".

"I tried to find my own way out of this warehouse" Kanaya said.

"Warehouse? What warehouse is Nay? " tanyanya Kartika again.

"Entah" said. Suddenly a blow hit Kanaya's head causing her to fall and faint. Kartika repeatedly called out Kanaya's name after hearing something fall down. He sounded very panicked.

"If he wants to survive, prepare a billion dollars to make up for it" said the stranger who took Kanaya's phone. The call was interrupted and the phone was immediately turned off. Kanaya was immediately tied to a chair that was already available.

As he regained his senses and opened his eyes he was shocked by the figure he knew sitting before him. He seemed to smile and blink his eyes.

"Hello kak Kanaya. How are you?" said the stranger.

"What the fuck? " kana said a little confused.

"Pian why be a bedusta brother against our boogey? Said the price of our land was exchanged for the price of a million but why it became three hundred thousand aja. Our loss ka'ae".

("Why did Kanaya's sister lie to us? He said the price of our land would be bought for one million but why only three hundred thousand. We feel aggrieved brother").

"Well, three hundred thousand. Indeed, in the letter of purchase it is written that we buy the price of a million. Ikam do not lietah, I report to the police to be hit by Mat'ae" Kanaya told a man named Ahmad who is a representative of the sale of the land purchased by the Kanaya company to build his new factory.

("Well, three hundred thousand. In the letter of purchase agreement we buy at a price of one million. You don't lie, can I report to the police you're dead").

"Papa ulun bedusta, you little bituhi. Forced 'aa ulun kidnap pian asking for tabusan a billion hagan indemnity" said Ahmad.

("What I'm lying about, it's true. Forced me to kidnap kaka to ask for a ransom of one billion in compensation").

"At least pank seitu, jahka lotii. Mun seitu aja ikam asked me gin kawa to stick the ikam" said Kanaya then felt a little pain in his head. Suddenly a silhouette of some happenings appeared within his head. The figure of her young self seemed to be kidnapped by someone, she was harassed.

("That's it, very little. If I just ask for that much ransom I'll give it")

"Oh, sick" cried Kanaya trying to untie the rope in her hand. Ahmad looks panicked to see Kanaya screaming in pain. Wanting him to untie Kanaya is afraid she's just pretending. If he's really in pain what about his plan to get the money.

"Pian promises to stick to the money, aja ulun open the rope? " ask Ahmad confirmed and was embraced by Kanaya.

("You have to promise first that later I will give you the new money I will untie the rope? ")

Kanaya's rope bond was immediately removed and she immediately held her head that felt so painful. Kanaya was unable to endure the inflamed pain in her head as she fainted. This made Ahmad panic, fearing that he would kill Kanaya. It's not like he's gonna get the money he's gonna be thrown in jail. Kanaya was immediately taken to her house near the warehouse and immediately called a mantri who used to treat the surrounding residents to check on Kanaya's condition. The mantri could not diagnose anything, he could only recommend that Kanaya be taken to the hospital for further examination.
