En: Meanwhile, Eka watched the sky that was starting to darken, feeling a tad uneasy.

Id: Perahu mereka melaju pelan, dipandu oleh seorang kapten berpengalaman.
En: Their boat moved slowly, guided by an experienced captain.

Id: Eka sering mengamati langit, mencari tanda-tanda perubahan cuaca.
En: Eka frequently observed the sky, looking for signs of weather changes.

Id: Tiba-tiba, angin kencang menerpa hutan.
En: Suddenly, strong winds swept through the forest.

Id: Petir menyambar, disusul derasnya hujan yang tak terduga pada musim kemarau ini.
En: Lightning struck, followed by heavy rain unexpectedly in this dry season.

Id: Ketakutan Adi meningkat, namun ia tahu ia harus menjaga ketenangan demi teman-temannya.
En: Adi's fear increased, but he knew he had to maintain calm for the sake of his friends.

Id: Bunga, meskipun begitu ingin melindungi kameranya, berlari ke sisi lain perahu untuk menolong seorang turis yang hampir terjatuh.
En: Bunga, though wanting to protect her camera, ran to the other side of the boat to help a tourist who almost fell.

Id: Eka, dengan ketenangannya, berdiri di samping kapten, berusaha mengingat rute sungai yang aman.
En: Eka, with his calmness, stood by the captain, trying to recall the safe route of the river.

Id: Perahu terombang-ambing, nyaris terbalik.

Id: Namun, saat ini juga, gerombolan orangutan bergelantungan di pepohonan, mencuri perhatian semua orang.
En: However, at this moment, a group of orangutans swinging in the trees caught everyone's attention.

Id: Sungguh pemandangan yang menakjubkan di tengah badai yang mendera.
