Story Transcript:

Id: Di tengah keramaian Jakarta, di sebuah mal yang selalu ramai, Adi menemukan dirinya berdiri di antara deretan alat tulis yang teratur.
En: In the middle of the hustle and bustle of Jakarta, in a mall that is always crowded, Adi found himself standing among the orderly rows of stationery.

Id: Semangat tahun ajaran baru terasa di udara.
En: The spirit of the new school year was in the air.

Id: Meski matahari musim panas di luar terasa panas, di dalam, hiruk-pikuk siswa-siswa lain mengalihkan perhatian Adi.
En: Although the summer sun outside felt hot, inside, the hustle and bustle of other students diverted Adi's attention.

Id: "Harus fokus," pikir Adi.
En: "Focus," Adi thought.

Id: Daftar belanja di tangannya mengingatkan betapa pentingnya persiapan untuk semester ini.
En: The shopping list in his hand reminded him of how important preparation for this semester was.

Id: Dia ingin membeli semua perlengkapan yang diperlukan, namun isi dompetnya tidak begitu bersahabat hari ini.
En: He wanted to buy all the necessary supplies, but the contents of his wallet were not very friendly today.

Id: Adi menyusuri lorong sambil menimbang-nimbang, "Yang mana dulu ya?
En: Adi wandered through the aisle, weighing his options, "Which one first?"

Id: " Dalam situasi ramai ini, pilihan menjadi terasa lebih sulit.
En: In this busy situation, choices felt more difficult.

Id: Di sebelah sana, dia melihat Budi dan Ika sedang tertawa-tawa di dekat rak pulpen.
En: Over there, he saw Budi and Ika laughing near the pen rack.

Id: "Heh, kalian tidak belanja?
En: "Hey, aren't you shopping?"

Id: " Adi mendekati mereka.
En: Adi approached them.

Id: Mereka tersenyum.
En: They smiled.

Id: "Sudah selesai duluan.
En: "We finished earlier.

Id: Kita cuma membantu-ng lihat-lihat," jawab Ika sambil menahan tawa.
En: We're just helping and looking around," replied Ika while holding back laughter.

Id: Budi mengangguk setuju.
En: Budi nodded in agreement.

Id: Adi melanjutkan perjalanannya, matanya tertuju pada satu set buku catatan idamannya.
En: Adi continued his journey, his eyes fixed on a set of his dream notebooks.

Id: Namun, ketika ia tiba, ada seorang siswa lain yang juga mengincarnya.
En: However, when he arrived, there was another student also eyeing it.

Id: "Kita lihat siapa yang cepat," pikir Adi seraya mempersiapkan diri untuk menghadapinya.
En: "Let's see who is faster," Adi thought, readying himself to face it.

Id: "Maaf, ini yang terakhir," ujar siswa tersebut sambil memegang buku catatan itu.
En: "Sorry, this is the last one," said the student while holding the notebook.

Id: Adi berpikir sejenak.
En: Adi thought for a moment.

Id: Ia tahu dirinya tidak bisa egois.
En: He knew he couldn't be selfish.

Id: "Hey, bagaimana kalau kita bagi saja?
En: "Hey, how about we share it?

Id: Kita bisa beli setengah-setengah, dan kita bagi buku-bukunya.
En: We can buy half and half, and split the notebooks."

Id: "Siswa tersebut terkejut.
En: The student was surprised.

Id: "Beneran?
En: "Really?"

Id: " tanyanya.
En: he asked.

Id: Ada cahaya lega di matanya.

En: Adi felt proud of his decision.

Id: Berkat kerjasama, dirinya dan siswa lainpun mendapatkan apa yang dibutuhkan.
En: Thanks to cooperation, he and the other student both got what they needed.

Id: Saat keluar dari toko, Adi tersenyum.
En: As he left the store, Adi smiled.

Id: Dari pengalaman hari ini, dia belajar bahwa persiapan tak selalu berarti melengkapi semua sendirian.
En: From today's experience, he learned that preparation doesn't always mean completing everything alone.

Id: Terkadang, bekerja sama bisa menjadi solusi yang lebih baik.
En: Sometimes, working together can be a better solution.

Id: Di bawah teriknya sinar matahari, Adi, Budi, dan Ika berjalan pulang, siap menghadapi tahun ajaran baru dengan semangat baru.
