Story Transcript:

Id: Hujan mengguyur Borobudur pagi itu, menciptakan suara gemericik yang memenuhi udara.
En: The rain poured over Borobudur that morning, creating a rustling sound that filled the air.

Id: Awan kelabu membayangi candi megah yang dikelilingi pepohonan hijau dan basah.
En: Gray clouds overshadowed the magnificent temple surrounded by green, wet trees.

Id: Di sana, Nita dan Budi bersiap untuk reuni keluarga yang sudah lama dinanti, bertepatan dengan Hari Raya Idul Fitri.
En: There, Nita and Budi were preparing for a long-awaited family reunion, coinciding with Hari Raya Idul Fitri.

Id: Ketegangan terasa di antara mereka.
En: Tension was palpable between them.

Id: Nita, kakak yang penuh tanggung jawab, sibuk mengatur jadwal.
En: Nita, the responsible elder sister, was busy organizing the schedule.

Id: Dia ingin semua berjalan sempurna.
En: She wanted everything to go perfectly.

Id: Sementara Budi, adik yang lebih banyak senyum daripada bersiap, mencoba memahami daftar tugas yang panjang di tangan Nita.
En: Meanwhile, Budi, the younger brother who smiled more than prepared, was trying to comprehend the long list of tasks in Nita's hands.

Id: “Budi, awas jangan buat masalah, ya!
En: "Budi, be careful not to cause any trouble, okay!"

Id: ” seru Nita dengan tegas.
En: Nita sternly exclaimed.

Id: “Aku sudah siapkan segalanya.
En: "I've prepared everything.

Id: ”“Aku bisa bantu, Nit,” jawab Budi, sedikit tersinggung.
En: "I can help, Nit," Budi replied, a little offended.

Id: “Aku juga mau berkontribusi.
En: "I also want to contribute."

Id: ”Matahari belum muncul, dan langit masih meneteskan airnya.
En: The sun had not yet appeared, and the sky was still dripping water.

Id: Reuni seharusnya berlangsung di halaman candi, tetapi hujan membuat rencana Nita terancam gagal.
En: The reunion was supposed to take place in the temple yard, but the rain threatened to ruin Nita's plans.

Id: Nita bingung, cemas membayangkan semua akan berantakan.
En: Nita was confused, anxious at the thought that everything might fall apart.

Id: Ketika keluarga mulai berdatangan, Nita melihat wajah mereka sedikit kecewa.
En: When the family began to arrive, Nita saw their faces slightly disappointed.

Id: Ia tahu, mereka semua ingin menikmati hari yang penuh cerita di luar.
En: She knew they all wanted to enjoy a day full of stories outside.

Id: Di saat seperti ini, Nita harus memutuskan: tetap berpegang pada rencana dengan resiko semua tidak sesuai harapan, atau percayakan Budi mengurus situasi mendadak ini.
En: At times like this, Nita had to decide: stick with the plan at the risk of everything not going as hoped, or trust Budi to handle this sudden situation.

Id: Di tengah keraguan Nita, Budi melangkah maju.
En: Amidst Nita's doubts, Budi stepped forward.

Id: “Nit, biar aku coba atur sesuatu,” katanya dengan senyum yang meyakinkan.
En: "Nit, let me try to organize something," he said with a reassuring smile.

Id: Nita ragu, tapi akhirnya menganggukkan kepalanya.
En: Nita hesitated but eventually nodded.

Id: “Baiklah, hanya karena kita tak punya pilihan lain.
En: "Alright, only because we have no other choice."

Id: ”Budi mulai...
