Breathe In History: A Journey Through Borobudur
Borobudur pagi itu basah karena hujan semalam.
Borobudur that morning was wet due to the rain from the night before.
Kabut tipis melayang perlahan, memberi aura misterius pada candi yang megah.
A thin mist drifted slowly, giving a mysterious aura to the magnificent temple.
Adi menggenggam catatan yang dibawanya.
Adi clutched the notes he brought.
"Hari ini aku akan mengungkap semua rahasia Borobudur," pikirnya.
"Today, I will uncover all the secrets of Borobudur," he thought.
Adi dan Rina, kakaknya, datang untuk merayakan Maulid Nabi sekaligus belajar dari sejarah candi ini.
Adi and Rina, his sister, came to celebrate Maulid Nabi as well as to learn from the history of this temple.
"Adi, jangan terlalu memaksakan diri," kata Rina, khawatir karena tahu adiknya mengidap asma.
"Adi, don't push yourself too hard," said Rina, worried because she knew her brother had asthma.
"Malam ini kita punya banyak waktu, Rina," jawab Adi semangat.
"We have plenty of time tonight, Rina," replied Adi excitedly.
Bayu, seorang pemandu lokal, menyambut mereka.
Bayu, a local guide, greeted them.
"Halo, perkenalkan, saya Bayu.
"Hello, let me introduce myself, I'm Bayu.
Saya akan menemani kalian berkeliling hari ini.
I will accompany you around today."
"Bayu mulai bercerita tentang sejarah candi.
Bayu began to tell the story of the temple's history.
Adi mendengarkan dengan antusias, mencatat setiap detail.
Adi listened enthusiastically, noting every detail.
Rina memperhatikan langit yang mendung, berharap hujan tidak akan turun lagi.
Rina watched the cloudy sky, hoping it wouldn't rain again.
Saat mereka menaiki anak tangga, Adi mulai terengah-engah.
As they climbed the steps, Adi started to pant.
Udara lembap membuatnya sulit bernapas.
The humid air made it difficult for him to breathe.
Rina memandang Adi dengan cemas.
Rina looked at Adi with concern.
"Adi, kita harus istirahat," usulnya.
"Adi, we should rest," she suggested.
"Tidak, aku baik-baik saja," tolak Adi, meski napasnya semakin berat.
"No, I'm fine," Adi refused, even though his breath was getting heavier.
Bayu melihat situasinya.
Bayu noticed the situation.
"Ayo, kita ke sana.
"Let's go over there.
Ada tempat duduk di bawah pohon itu," tawarnya, menunjuk ke arah tempat teduh.
There's a seat under that tree," he offered, pointing to a shaded spot.
Mereka menuju tempat aman itu.
They headed to that safe place.
Rina mendudukkan Adi.
Rina sat Adi down.
"Tarik napas dalam-dalam, Adi.
"Take a deep breath, Adi."
"Adi berusaha mengatur napas.
Adi tried to regulate his breathing.
Bayu memberi suntikan semangat, "Jangan khawatir, kita bisa lanjut nanti setelah kamu merasa lebih baik.
Bayu gave some encouragement, "Don't worry, we can continue later after you feel better."
"Setelah beberapa waktu, Adi mulai merasa lega.
After some time, Adi started to feel relieved.
"Maaf sudah merepotkan," katanya pelan.
"Sorry for the trouble," he said softly.
"Yang penting kesehatanmu, Di," kata Rina, menggenggam tangannya.
"The important thing is your health, Di," said Rina, holding his hand.
"Sejarah tidak akan lari ke mana-mana, Adi.
"History won't run away, Adi.
Kita bisa belajar dengan cara yang lebih santai," ujar Bayu sambil tersenyum.
We can learn in a more relaxed way," said Bayu with a smile.
Setelah istirahat cukup, mereka melanjutkan perjalanan dengan langkah lebih tenang.
After enough rest, they continued their journey at a more relaxed pace.
Bayu bercerita lebih banyak tentang batu-batu candi yang dipahat indah.
Bayu told them more about the beautifully carved temple stones.
Adi menyadari pelajaran penting: menikmati perjalanan juga bagian dari pencarian.
Adi realized an important lesson: enjoying the journey is also part of the quest.
Mereka menutup hari itu dengan kekayaan cerita dan kekayaan persahabatan.
They ended the day with a wealth of stories and the richness of friendship.
Serta keputusan Adi yang berbeda.
Along with Adi's different decision.
Kini ia tahu, kadang kala, mendengarkan tubuh lebih penting demi mencapai tujuan.
Now he knows, sometimes, listening to your body is more important to achieve your goals.
Borobudur tetap berdiri megah, dengan Adi yang telah belajar pelajaran berharga: bernafas lebih penting dibanding sekadar berlari mengejar pengetahuan.
Borobudur still stands majestically, with Adi having learned a valuable lesson: breathing is more important than just running after knowledge.
