Part 38: Caught

"Brengseeek!!!" Rustam kicked the table hard. To make everyone in the room gasp in shock.

"Stupid!!! It's good to run abroad why the two of them even returned to Indonesia, anyway?!" he gripped one of the men in a black suit violently. "Damn it, I'm a fugitive, right!!!"

"Arrggghhhh, bego that old jackfruit!!!" Rustam threw the male body in front of him until he fell to the floor.

"Fuck everything! Clear this place immediately!!!" peekik Rustam was angry, making everyone look down in fear.  Rustam got out of the room in a hurry and sauntered away with his luxury car to the apartment he was staying in.

Arriving at the apartment Rustam immediately boarded the elevator in panic. Tapping his shoes while massaging the base of his nose. The elevator went so slow, it felt like a long time Rustam was waiting for him.

The elevator opened, Rustam immediately searched the room Number 134 he inhabited and opened it. Viola is playing with Rena.

"Home home, Mom?" viola asked after seeing Rustam's presence being so messy.

Rustam let out a rough breath. "Pack your things now."

"Where are we going?" asked Viola confusedly.

"Quick packing!" Rustam raised his tone then stepped into the room, picked up the suitcase and stuffed his clothes in the closet with a huff.

Viola was still gawking, then gazing towards Rena. "Would we go home, Ma?" asked Rena while raising her next to her eyebrows.

Viola got up from her seat then helped Rustam pack their things.

"Bring his favorite clothes, the others we will buy again."

"Would we go home, Mommy?" ask Viola.

Rustam stared at Viola. "We're going to China, there's work to be done there."

"What do you work for, Mas, until you have to move around like a gini?" Viola suspected.

"Honey, we'll go there for the holidays. Later come back here again to register Rena school." Rustam held Viola's shoulder.

"Yes, you go there yourself. I'm the same Rena here. But, buyin a handpone to be able to communicate."

"No, you have to come. I don't have the heart to leave you alone here." Rustam is convincing.

"But…"

Rustam had lost his temper, he closed his suitcase violently. "This was the one that was brought. You're the same Rena don't have to take a shower, we have to hurry before we miss the plane." Rustam pulled his suitcase out of the room.

"Rena, get changed!" said Rustam saw Rena sitting while playing lego.

"We're going home, Pa?" asked Rena with sparkling eyes.

"Hurry up!" Rustam snaps.

Rena grunts. Because of that clash, he suddenly missed Erwin's tenderness, his generous papa smile. Aihhhhh, Rena is anxious to hug Erwin. Not hugging his stepfather who was getting increasingly fierce. Perhaps, it was tired of acting so that its true nature began to surface.

After visiting his parents' house, Erwin's heart felt plong, although not completely. There is still a little fuss, of course because his favorite daughter who still has not given news.

"Do not need to do anything!" Zahra awakens Erwin from the reverie. Justifies the location of the man's bow tie. "Bah, neat."

"I'll go first, okay?"

"Yes," nodded Zahra kissing Erwin's hand.

Erwin kissed Zahra's forehead.

"Spirit!" zahra said encouragingly.

Erwin smiled then turned to greet Refan who was waiting for him in front of the car.

"Be careful!" Zahra said again.

"Owh, yes. If Vina and Fitri are hassles. Ask the children to help. Say the same to them. If all the income from the stall eat chicken geprek for all of them." Erwin glanced at Zahra at a glance then walked towards Refan's car.

"Yes, geez. Thank you, Mommy." Zahra looks so happy not a bitch.

Erwin smiled without looking at Zahra. The man got into the car that was opened by Refan.

"Thank you, sir, for returning to work at the company."

***

The sound of a typewriter, a cellphone that rings, people passing by, and tense debates immediately stop instantly. All the employees who were busy with their work were immediately flabbergasted when they saw someone who had just come with Refan. A moment later they singled out a smile in unison, leaving his activities and then flocked to Erwin.

"Yes, geez. I miss you, Father."

"It feels so good, you're back here again."

"Crying, sir."

Erwin smiled as he shook hands with them.

"My moodboster works here."

"Astajim, the smile of my father is like lightning. I'm being stubborn."

"My mood suddenly calmed down."

"Today it looks so bright. It's like someone new is in love."

"Keep immediately confused, after knowing that doi loved, already anyone has?" said someone next to him who was greeted with laughter from employees.

"Have, yuk, returned to work," said Refan to coordinate his colleagues to return to their respective duties. Then give the code for Erwin to follow him.

Refan knocked on the unlocked door. Erwin stared at the small plaque attached above the door, the CEO's room.

"Lake in!"

The person behind him turned the chair he was sitting on until it faced Erwin. "I'm glad you want to lead this company back."

Erwin was still standing before Dendy while looking down politely.

"Create a new system, replace email, and also all the important parts of our products. We'll start all over again with this product."

"But it will affect the quality of the product, sir. The authenticity of this product is so typical, if there is a change of course there will be many people who switch on other products, because this product performance is not like before."

"Erwin.. Rustam has hacked our products. There's no other way." Dendy sighed. "You sit down first!"

Erwin nodded, then sat down before Dendy.

"Your partners are changing the product systems. No need to overhaul all, only the core systems have been hacked, the important features available still attract attention."

Erwin nodded in understanding. "Ready, sir."

Dendy was relieved.

"Father don't hate Rustam" said Erwin suddenly.

Dendy scrunched his forehead. "Why?"

"Maybe he did that to support Viola." Erwin.

"In fact, I already assume Rustam has kidnapped Rena and Viola. After I get home from here, I'll have some people fly to Paris, see Viola."

That was the sentence Erwin was waiting for. "Can I come, sir?"

"I understand your concern. But you just got back to work here, Win. Professionals, go ahead, and pray that Viola and Rena are okay." Dendy smiled, though every day her life was filled with anxiety. Especially his wife at home who always cries when remembering Viola.

"Well, sir," said Erwin.

Zahra brought several orphanage children to help Vina and Fitri serve customers. Alhamdulilah, now Vina can sit on a chair while facebookan because her task is already there to hold.

Fitri fussed over Vina's ears. "Isshh, just chill out!"

"Apaan, anyway, people get bullied they're running, really." Vina pointed at the orphanage children with her chin.

"Yes, right, you're here also working. Closing what cake. It's so good you just sleep, wake up payday." Fitri glares.

"Gue sleep really just know how you feel." Vina rolled her eyeballs lazily, stuffing her phone in her pocket. Then go to the kitchen to help Zahra fry the chicken. "This is my replacement for cooking, Ma'am. Take a break first."

Zahra wiped the sweat on her forehead with her arm. "But, Vin, hang out."

Suddenly, a young boy entered the kitchen in a hurry. "Sister Zahra is looking for Miss Anti."

"Aah?" Zahra put down her spatula. "You changed me, yeah, Vin."

"Asieapp!!!" answer Vina spirit.

Zahra took off her apron and then came out to Bu Anti who was sitting at one of the tables in her stall.

"You must come with me now" said Miss Anti as soon as Zahra arrived before her.

"What's up, Mom?"

"The person who kidnapped the children of the home was captured." Bu Anti got up from his seat and took Zahra out of the stall riding a taxi that he had ordered.

"That means the kids have met, Mom?" tanya Zahra could not hide her tears of joy.

Miss Anti and Zahra got into the cab. But, Miss Anti remained silent, still not giving an answer. Forced Zahra had to shake the body of Bu Anti to satisfy her curiosity.

"They're sold, Ra."

Zahra covered her mouth with her palm. Not strong enough to hold back the crying. It was painful to think about their fate. Zahra growling. "Who did it, Mom?"

Miss Anti wiped her tears. "Uncle Aji's family."

Zahra threw her body on the back of the chair then sighed violently.

After a few minutes, they arrived at the shop where the kidnapper was arrested. Zahra rushed out of the taxi and ran towards the crowd. "Zahra, relax!" yelled Miss Anti.

Zahra barged in, lunged at the crowd, then threw a kick at his uncle and aunt. However, his body was immediately held by some of the orphanage children who happened to be there.

"Zahra, be patient, Ra!"

Zahra looked at her fidelity. "Surge! I want to kill them!!!"

"Then brash!"

"That's it, Ra!" Miss Anti keeps trying to calm Zahra down. It took even three more people to stop Zahra's actions whose chest had gone up and down holding back anger.

"They're criminals!! They don't live in the world!!!" Zahra thrashed with a hoarse voice.

"Istigfar, Ra, no!" Miss Anti hugged Zahra to calm her down.

Uncle Aji and his wife looked battered at the judgement of the masses. Fortunately, there are some police who are quick to secure the perpetrators to be safe from the rampage of residents.

The two of them returned to action, but, this time their plans did not go smoothly. Because their actions were caught by one of the residents, and finally beaten in that place as well.

"We follow them to the police station" Ms Anti said, inviting Zahra and the other children. "We have to bring back the orphanage children we haven't met."

"Aji must be killed! You sold my inheritance, you kidnapped children who never did anything wrong!"

"Zahra, relax!"
