Sari berdiri di bawah payung besar, menatap keramaian di Taman Mini Indonesia Indah.

Sari stood under the large umbrella, gazing at the crowd in Taman Mini Indonesia Indah.

Hujan turun deras, membuat udara lembab dan sejuk.

The rain fell heavily, making the air humid and cool.

Bersamanya ada Budi dan Rini, teman baik yang siap membantunya mencari hadiah untuk keluarga tercinta.

With her were Budi and Rini, good friends who were ready to help her find gifts for beloved family members.

“Banyak pilihan, ya,” kata Budi sambil melihat deretan gerai yang berwarna-warni.

"There are a lot of choices, aren't there?"

“Iya, aku bingung harus mulai dari mana,” Sari menjawab dengan senyum cemas.

said Budi while looking at the rows of colorful stalls.

Sari ingin membeli hadiah yang sempurna untuk keluarganya.

"Yes, I'm confused about where to start," Sari replied with an anxious smile.

Meskipun sederhana, dia selalu percaya bahwa perhatian adalah segalanya.

Sari wanted to buy the perfect gift for her family.

Namun, anggaran yang terbatas membuatnya harus berpikir keras.

Even though it was simple, she always believed that thoughtfulness was everything.

Selain itu, gerimis yang terus-menerus membuat trotoar menjadi licin dan pasar semakin ramai.

However, a limited budget made her think hard.

Di sebuah kios, Sari melihat ukiran kayu yang sangat indah.

Additionally, the constant drizzle made the sidewalks slippery and the market more crowded.

Sebuah patung kayu yang menggambarkan penari tradisional.

At one stall, Sari saw a very beautiful wood carving, a wooden statue depicting a traditional dancer.

Pikirannya langsung teringat ayahnya yang menyukai kesenian tradisional.

Her mind immediately thought of her father, who loved traditional art.

Tapi, harganya jauh di atas anggarannya.

But, the price was far above her budget.

“Ini akan memakan sebagian besar uangku,” gumamnya ragu.

"This will take up most of my money," she murmured doubtfully.

Rini, melihat gelagat Sari, berkata, “Coba lihat barang-barang lain dulu.

Rini, noticing Sari's hesitation, said, "Try looking at other items first.

Mungkin ada yang bisa mewakili nilai seni yang ayahmu suka, tapi lebih terjangkau.

Maybe there's something that represents the art your father loves, but more affordable."

”Mereka bertiga berjalan ke kios lain.

The three of them walked to another stall.

Tepat di pojok, Sari menemukan sebuah selendang batik yang menawan.

Right in the corner, Sari found an enchanting batik scarf.

Polanya tradisional, dan warna-warna cerahnya sangat menarik perhatian.

Its pattern was traditional, and its bright colors were very eye-catching.

“Bagaimana kalau ini?

"How about this?

Sama indahnya, dan lebih murah,” usul Budi sambil menunjuk selendang tersebut.

Just as beautiful, and cheaper," suggested Budi while pointing at the scarf.

Sari mengangkat selendang itu dengan hati-hati.

Sari lifted the scarf carefully.

Ternyata, selendang batik memang menggambarkan kecintaan ayahnya terhadap seni, sama seperti patung kayu tadi.

Indeed, the batik scarf truly embodied her father's love of art, just like the wooden statue earlier.

Dia tersenyum, merasa yakin dengan pilihannya.

She smiled, feeling confident with her choice.

“Ya, ini bagus sekali.

"Yes, this is very nice.

Dan aku masih bisa membeli hadiah untuk ibu dan adik-adikku,” ucapnya lega.

And I can still buy gifts for my mother and my younger siblings," she said with relief.

Dengan hati yang ringan, Sari memilih beberapa keramik kecil untuk ibunya, dan mainan tradisional untuk adik-adiknya.

With a light heart, Sari selected some small ceramics for her mother and traditional toys for her siblings.

Budi dan Rini membantu menawar dan membungkus barang-barang tersebut, memastikan semuanya dalam kondisi baik.

Budi and Rini helped with bargaining and wrapping the items, ensuring everything was in good condition.

Saat mereka meninggalkan pasar, derasnya hujan mulai mereda.

As they left the market, the heavy rain started to let up.

Sari merasa lega dan bangga pada dirinya sendiri.

Sari felt relieved and proud of herself.

Ternyata, hadiah tidak harus mahal untuk menunjukkan rasa sayang.

It turned out that gifts didn't need to be expensive to show love.

“Pilihannya tepat, Sari.

"The choice was right, Sari.

Yang penting adalah perhatianmu,” puji Rini.

What's important is your thoughtfulness," praised Rini.

Sari mengangguk, senang dengan keputusan yang telah diambil.

Sari nodded, happy with the decision she had made.

Dia belajar bahwa harga bukanlah segalanya, melainkan makna di balik hadiah yang membuatnya istimewa.

She learned that price wasn't everything, but rather the meaning behind the gift that made it special.

Bersama Budi dan Rini, Sari melangkah pulang dengan senyuman, siap untuk merayakan Tahun Baru dengan hati yang penuh kehangatan.

Together with Budi and Rini, Sari walked home with a smile, ready to celebrate the New Year with a heart full of warmth.
