Story Transcript:

Id: Hujan tak berhenti sejak pagi, menetes pelan di atap sekolah Jakarta yang sibuk itu.
En: The rain didn't stop since morning, dripping slowly on the roof of that busy Jakarta school.

Id: Suasana lembab tak membuat Dewi menyerah.
En: The damp atmosphere didn't make Dewi give up.

Id: Di kelas, suasana riuh.
En: In class, the mood was noisy.

Id: Anak-anak saling bercanda dan bertukar cerita.
En: The children were joking and swapping stories.

Id: Namun di sudut ruangan, Dewi tampak tegang.
En: However, in the corner of the room, Dewi looked tense.

Id: Dia menggenggam buku catatan dengan erat.
En: She clutched her notebook tightly.

Id: Dewi dikenal sebagai murid rajin.
En: Dewi was known as a diligent student.

Id: Tapi tugas proyek kelompok ini membebaninya.
En: But this group project burdened her.

Id: Dewi sadar, nilai proyek ini penting.
En: Dewi realized this project's grade was important.

Id: Dia hanya berharap semua anggota kelompoknya bisa bekerjasama.
En: She only hoped all her group members would cooperate.

Id: Rahmat, yang lebih suka berkumpul dengan teman-temannya, sudah beberapa kali absen saat pertemuan kelompok.
En: Rahmat, who preferred hanging out with his friends, had already been absent a few times during group meetings.

Id: Walau begitu, Dewi tahu Rahmat cerdas, hanya saja ia kurang motivasi.
En: Despite that, Dewi knew Rahmat was smart, just lacking motivation.

Id: Lalu ada Iman.
En: Then there was Iman.

Id: Iman lebih suka diam.
En: Iman preferred to stay quiet.

Id: Dewi tahu Iman sebenarnya banyak ide.
En: Dewi knew Iman actually had plenty of ideas.

Id: Sayangnya, Iman sering ragu untuk bicara, takut diabaikan.
En: Unfortunately, Iman often hesitated to speak, afraid of being ignored.

Id: Dewi ingin Iman percaya diri dan menyumbangkan pemikirannya.
En: Dewi wanted Iman to be confident and contribute his thoughts.

Id: Saat bel bersuara, Dewi mengajak Rahmat dan Iman berkumpul di perpustakaan.
En: When the bell rang, Dewi invited Rahmat and Iman to gather in the library.

Id: Di sana lebih sepi.
En: It was quieter there.

Id: "Kita harus diskusi soal proyek ini," Dewi memulai dengan suara mantap.
En: "We need to discuss this project," Dewi started with a firm voice.

Id: Rahmat duduk, masih asyik mengetik di ponselnya.
En: Rahmat sat, still busy typing on his phone.

Id: Iman membuka buku catatannya, ragu-ragu.
En: Iman opened his notebook, hesitantly.

Id: "Rahmat, kita butuh kontribusi kamu," kata Dewi pelan namun tegas.
En: "Rahmat, we need your contribution," said Dewi softly but firmly.

Id: "Kalau kita kerjakan bersama, hasilnya bisa lebih baik.
En: "If we work together, the result could be better.

Id: Dan Iman, aku yakin kamu punya ide bagus.
En: And Iman, I believe you have good ideas.

Id: Tolong bagikan dengan kami.
En: Please share them with us."

Id: "Rahmat tersentak.
En: Rahmat was startled.

Id: Dia tahu, Dewi benar.
En: He knew Dewi was right.

Id: "Maaf, Dewi.
En: "Sorry, Dewi.

Id: Aku akan lebih serius," jawab Rahmat.
En: I'll take it more seriously," Rahmat replied.

Id: Sementra itu, Iman tersenyum kecil, merasa dihargai.
En: Meanwhile, Iman...
