Story Transcript:

Id: Matahari bersinar terik di pantai Kuta, Bali.
En: The sun was shining brightly at Kuta Beach, Bali.

Id: Pasir putih terbentang luas, dan angin laut berembus lembut.
En: White sand stretched far and wide, and the sea breeze blew gently.

Id: Rini, Adi, dan Nurul berjalan menyusuri pantai.
En: Rini, Adi, and Nurul walked along the beach.

Id: Mereka baru saja tiba dari Jakarta untuk liburan yang sudah lama dinantikan.
En: They had just arrived from Jakarta for a long-awaited vacation.

Id: Rini tampak ceria.
En: Rini looked cheerful.

Id: Rambutnya berkibar ditiup angin.
En: Her hair fluttered in the wind.

Id: Namun, di dalam hati, dia sedikit cemas.
En: However, inside, she was a little anxious.

Id: Baru saja sembuh dari sakit, dia ingin menikmati liburan tanpa rasa khawatir.
En: Having just recovered from an illness, she wanted to enjoy the vacation without worries.

Id: Adi dan Nurul tidak tahu, Rini tidak ingin membuat mereka khawatir.
En: Adi and Nurul didn't know, as Rini didn't want to make them worry.

Id: "Ah, Bali memang indah sekali," kata Adi sambil mengambil gambar pemandangan.
En: "Ah, Bali is so beautiful," said Adi while taking pictures of the scenery.

Id: Nurul setuju, "Iya, dan lautnya sangat biru."
En: Nurul agreed, "Yes, and the sea is so blue."

Id: Mereka berdua sudah berencana untuk berjemur dan berenang.
En: The two of them had already planned to sunbathe and swim.

Id: Setiap langkah terasa berat bagi Rini.
En: Every step felt heavy for Rini.

Id: Matahari semakin terik.
En: The sun was getting hotter.

Id: Keringat membasahi dahinya.
En: Sweat dampened her forehead.

Id: Tapi Rini terus melangkah.
En: But Rini kept walking.

Id: Dia ingin membuktikan bahwa dia mampu menikmati liburan ini sepenuhnya.
En: She wanted to prove that she could fully enjoy this vacation.

Id: Namun, rasa pusing mulai menyerangnya.
En: However, dizziness began to strike her.

Id: Dunia seperti berputar.
En: The world seemed to spin.

Id: "Rini, kamu baik-baik saja?" tanya Nurul sambil merapikan topinya.
En: "Rini, are you okay?" asked Nurul while adjusting her hat.

Id: "Aku... baik," jawab Rini dengan senyum lemah.
En: "I'm... fine," Rini replied with a weak smile.

Id: Dia tidak ingin merusak suasana.
En: She didn't want to ruin the mood.

Id: Akhirnya, mereka memutuskan untuk duduk di bawah naungan pohon kelapa.
En: Finally, they decided to sit under the shade of a coconut tree.

Id: Adi membeli kelapa muda dari pedagang di tepi pantai.
En: Adi bought a young coconut from a vendor at the beachside.

Id: "Minum ini, Rin. Segar sekali," kata Adi sambil menyerahkan kelapa kepadanya.
En: "Drink this, Rin. It's so refreshing," said Adi, handing her the coconut.

Id: Rini hanya tersenyum dan menerima, meskipun kepalanya semakin terasa ringan.
En: Rini just smiled and accepted it, even though her head felt increasingly light.

Id: Sekejap kemudian, semuanya terasa gelap.
En: In an instant, everything went dark.

Id: Rini jatuh...
