Story Transcript:

Id: Di tengah gemerisik daun kering yang menghampar di halaman, berdiri kokoh bangunan ward psikiatri dengan jendelanya yang besar.
En: Amidst the rustling of dry leaves scattered across the yard, the sturdy structure of the psychiatric ward stood with its large windows.

Id: Cahaya matahari siang menerobos masuk, menciptakan kilauan hangat di lantai koridornya.
En: The midday sunlight streamed in, creating a warm shimmer on the corridor's floor.

Id: Raden, dengan pandangan tenangnya, duduk di sudut ruangan terapi.
En: Raden, with his calm gaze, sat in the corner of the therapy room.

Id: Meski usianya baru akhir dua puluhan, garis di wajahnya seperti menggambarkan perenungan panjang.
En: Although he was only in his late twenties, the lines on his face seemed to reflect deep contemplation.

Id: Dia tengah mencari makna dalam setiap detik kehidupan, sambil berjuang dengan rasa cemas.
En: He was searching for meaning in every second of life while battling anxiety.

Id: Di pojok lain ruangan, Fitri duduk.
En: In another corner of the room, Fitri sat.

Id: Semangatnya yang sempat redup kini berangsur kembali menyala.
En: Her spirit, once dimmed, was gradually reigniting.

Id: Dia bertekad untuk membangun kembali rasa harga dirinya dari serpihan yang ada.
En: She was determined to rebuild her self-esteem from the shards that remained.

Id: Pemulihan dari depresi menjadi target utamanya.
En: Recovery from depression was her primary goal.

Id: Hari pertama Raden dan Fitri bertemu, adalah ketika sesi terapi kelompok membahas pentingnya 'bersyukur'.
En: The first day Raden and Fitri met was during a group therapy session discussing the importance of 'gratitude.'

Id: Sebuah tema yang tampak mudah, namun menantang bagi mereka yang sedang berjuang dalam kegelapan pribadi.
En: A theme that seemed easy, yet challenging for those struggling in personal darkness.

Id: Raden, melihat ke arah Fitri, merasa ada ketertarikan tersendiri.
En: Raden, looking towards Fitri, felt a particular intrigue.

Id: Meski mereka sama-sama tertutup, dia merasakan kehangatan yang jarang ditemukan.
En: Though they were both introverted, he sensed a warmth rarely found.

Id: Begitu sesi selesai, Raden memberanikan diri duduk di sebelah Fitri.
En: Once the session ended, Raden mustered the courage to sit beside Fitri.

Id: "Hai, saya Raden. Apa kesanmu tentang sesi tadi?" tanyanya lirih, mencoba membuka percakapan.
En: "Hi, I’m Raden. What are your thoughts about today's session?" he asked softly, trying to start a conversation.

Id: Fitri tersenyum tipis, sedikit gugup, namun merespons dengan suara yang menggetar. "Menarik, tapi tidak mudah diterapkan..."
En: Fitri gave a slight smile, a bit nervous, but responded with a trembling voice, "Interesting, but not easy to implement..."

Id: Dari perbincangan sederhana itu, jalinan persahabatan dimulai.
En: From that simple conversation, a bond of friendship began.

Id: Hari demi hari, Raden dan Fitri mulai berbagi lebih dari sekadar senyum.
En: Day by day, Raden and Fitri started sharing more than just smiles.

Id: Mereka berbagi cerita, ketakutan, dan impian mereka, meski dengan langkah hati-hati.
En: They shared their stories, fears, and dreams, though with cautious steps.

Id: Ketika hari Kemerdekaan Indonesia tiba, ward mengadakan perayaan sederhana.
En:...
