Nadine's face looks blurry despite being in the crowd of shopping centers. If the needs of his son are not exhausted, he is actually lazy to leave the house, except to go to work. Mimin can't shop. He was busy helping out at the store. Ms. Marto is not feeling well anymore.
Hustle and bustle of people around as if unable to dispel the fog that had been in his eyes for some time. He only smiled poignantly whenever he heard the rambling of Idyla walking in his guidance.
Soon she'll not just lose Idyla's babble, her daughter's whole life will pass by her side!
Nadine until unconscious when walking towards the cashier there was someone who stood amazed to see it. He was just flinched when a cry whipped his ear:
"Nadine!"
The call not only surprised Nadine, it also breathed out a vibration that had been lost in her heart. For a long time he did not hear the voice, but still remembered well who the owner was.
Nadine turned and exclaimed, "Sister Katrin...!"
Nadine. He could hardly believe that the woman who was pushing the shopping cart towards him was Katrin!
He looks so shabby. A pale face like a lack of sleep. And the bad charm became one in the eyes that hardly shone.
"Nadine," hissed Katrin stiffly, disperse her reverie. "We met at last."
There was a sense of compassion in Nadine's heart. Either what happened to her brother so that her appearance was so chaotic, even though beauty care was the first thing she thought of when she woke up.
Katrin has not had a bath for three days. Sleeping in the car to save money. Star hotels in Jakarta are very expensive, staying in jasmine hotels is even suspected to be PSK, while he does not know how long it has been in Jakarta to find his family. He needs their help to get his house back. He was a victim of a conspiracy.
Katrin has ransacked this western region because
Katrin once visited this region when she took her sister to give birth. He tried to find his place to stay because it must not be far from the hospital, and it turned out to be true.
But Katrin did not tell much about her search until she was on her way to her sister's house. They were in one car. Nadine never takes a car if she goes alone with Idyla. His son's mischief disrupted his driving concentration.
Katrin's eyes occasionally glanced at Idyla. He did not expect his nephew to be that big. He was quite regretful that such a sweet child was born without the recognition of Gerdy's parents, so that his wife so bothered shopping for the needs of children, even though if there is recognition, all taken care of by the household manager.
Katrin made no comment when she found out how her sister's house was doing, but Nadine knew what was on her mind.
The middle room is a mess. Dirty not playing. Toys are everywhere. The somersault objects. Flat teve screen beepotan ice cream. Idyla likes to throw it when there's a witch in a cartoon, annoyed.
Mimin seems to have not had time to tidy up, while Gerdy left early in the morning. If it's a bit of leisure, he usually helps clean up the house.
This house is actually not bad, even classified as luxurious for most people. Nice interior. On the wall hang some modern naturalism paintings. Cool air, using a cooling device. Full furniture, the price is good. But of course it doesn't count Katrin.
"This is how I am doing" said Nadine as she fixed a flower vase that rolled over on the table. "Maybe not as you imagine."
"I've imagined it" Katrin smiled wryly. "I don't think your residences are so bad."
It's not bad, Nadine keki. It is more luxurious than the neighbors. You're the height standard.
"Your husband works?" ask Katrin.
"Yes" replied Nadine briefly.
"Where?"
"Anywhere."
Katrin looked at me not understanding. "meaning?"
"Oject offline."
Katrin flinched in her chair, as if unexpectedly. But not a single comment slid from his mouth.
Nadine smiled bitterly. "What's coming to Jakarta? You're not desperate to get Mami and Prilly home?"
"I need your help."
Seeing her brother's face darken, curiosity rose in Nadine's heart, she asked, "What help? I know you don't need material help. Datuk Mengegi must have met all the needs."
"Don't mention the bastard's name anymore."
Nadine shocked. "Loh, why? He's your husband, right?"
"It's divorced."
"Mom wants you to marry Dodi, your fiancee first," said Nadine blandly. "What would life be like if your heart were unhappy, if you were looking for pleasure in a sugar baby? Cheating husband would not want his wife to betray."
"Maybe my biggest mistake was ignoring love for the sake of luxury, eventually getting caught up in it. But I don't want to mourn my love."
"The matter should be finished then."
"The problem became long because of the cunning of Grandfather and Sastro. The two houses changed hands on them."
Nadine surprised. "Can't you?"
"I'm sure they've made a fictitious sale and purchase transaction, but I'm hard to prove."
"How do you know the transaction is fictitious?"
"Transaction happens after Papi disappears."
Nadine thought to herself, then said, "It could be that Papi sold the two houses for fun in the runaway city. Means Papi is still alive and wants to make the family miserable. We need to ask the police to track Papi down if the transaction actually happened."
"According to them the transaction took place in a five-star hotel, then Papi left."
"Baty definitely accepts payment in the form of a check, it is not possible in cash. Well, we can track the transfer flow."
"But ask to be paid in cash."
Nadine nodded in surprise, then she muttered, "Any. I feel like there's been some discrepancy in this transaction. Is it possible that Papi brought billions of rupiah in cash where he went?"
"We find it hard to suspect Datuk Meninggi and Sastro. They're strong people."
Nadine originally wanted to call Mami at the store. But seeing the problem her brother brought, she became doubtful. This new fact shows that Papi was not washed up in the river or killed. Mommy better not know that Papi's alive.
Or Katrin's lying? Gerdy's suspicions are correct. He had already killed his father, so when the deprivation of rights was confused to prove it!
"I could have one of those houses if I fulfilled their request" Katrin said.
"What's that?"
"Make Prilly his wife."
"No way!"
"They actually want you, so that married people don't lose their attraction."
"Crazy!"
"Then I ask you for your help how good it is."
So this is what made her brother's life chaotic, thought Nadine gloomily. The matter had drained his mind so that he forgot to take care of himself.
"Where do you live now?" ask Nadine.
"In the car."
Nadine shocked. "Not looking for a contract?"
"My car is more comfortable than the contract."
Nadine was confused. Frankly until this moment she had not been able to forgive her brother. His sins to his family are not erased by time. But if you have to let her brother become homeless, it does not feel like heart.
And Prilly is too young to be involved in the game of life. He did not see it as an offering at the altar of lust.
"You're not asking for help" Prilly said as her eldest brother delivered the message. He just got back from college. "You want to ruin my life for your madness."
"Your staff spoke so to your brother" Katrin sighed. "I'm not asking you to sacrifice. I asked your opinion because you're already a student."
"It all happened because of your carelessness."
"I admit it, but regret is meaningless. I need a solution."
"The solution forget about the house. Forget your fancy life. Dodi's been waiting until now."
