How are you ?
I'm (just) fine, thank you
Apa kabar (kamu) ?
Saya baik baik (saja), terimakasih

Here we can just say : apa kabar > A(rt)+Pa(pa) Ka(rl)+Bar(t)
either with/without kamu > Ka(rl)+Moo(d) = you
and the respond is : saya baik baik > Su(ck)+Yu(mmy) - Ba(rt)+(s)ick Ba(rt)+(s)ick
either with/without saja > su(ck)+ju(st) = just .
