Aku suka hujan," katanya, membantu mengangkat suasana hati semua orang.En: "This is an adventure! I love the rain," he said, helping to lift everyone's spirits.Id: Rina menghela napas, mencoba menjaga ketenangan di tengah skeptisisme Made dan kegemaran Agus pada kehebohan.En: Rina sighed, trying to maintain calm amidst Made’s skepticism and Agus’ enthusiasm for the commotion.Id: "Kita harus teruskan. Ini Natal pertama tanpa mereka," katanya lembut, mengingatkan semua akan kenangan orang tua mereka.En: "We must continue. This is the first Christmas without them," she said softly, reminding everyone of memories of their parents.Id: As they climb, hujan semakin deras, membasahi pakaian dan menghalangi pandangan mereka.En: As they climbed, the rain poured heavier, soaking their clothes and obscuring their view.Id: "Apa gunanya repot-repot?" Made bergumam, gelisah akan keputusan ini.En: "What's the point of all this trouble?" Made muttered, uneasy about this decision.Id: Namun, di dalam keraguan, dia mengingat wajah tersenyum ibu mereka, tertawa, dan senyum hangat ayah mereka pada malam Natal.En: Yet, within his doubt, he remembered their mother’s smiling face, laughter, and their father’s warm smile on Christmas Eve.Id: Hal itu membuat hatinya sedikit luluh.En: It softened his heart slightly.Id: Saat mereka mencapai puncak, basah kuyup dan lelah, hujan mulai reda.En: When they reached the top, drenched and tired, the rain began to subside.Id: Awan kelam yang menguasai langit perlahan-lahan terpisah, mengungkapkan pancaran matahari terbenam yang menakjubkan di belakang batu-batu candi.En: The dark clouds that dominated the sky gradually parted, revealing a stunning sunset behind the temple stones.Id: Cahaya keemasan memantul pada ukiran candi, membuat pemandangan itu tampak magis.En: The golden light reflected on the temple carvings, making the scene appear magical.Id: Melihat keindahan itu, Made berdiri diam dalam keheningan.En: Seeing this beauty, Made stood still in silence.Id: Dia merasakan sesuatu yang sudah lama hilang—keterhubungan dengan tradisinya.En: He felt something that had been missing for a long time—a connection to his tradition.Id: "Mungkin ada alasan kita melakukan ini," dia mengakui perlahan, nadanya berubah lebih lembut.En: "Maybe there's a reason we do this," he slowly acknowledged, his tone turning gentler.Id: Rina, tersenyum lega, merangkul kedua saudaranya.En: Rina, smiling in relief, embraced her two siblings.Id: "Terkadang kita perlu melihat lebih dalam," katanya, menghapus air mata yang bercampur dengan tetesan hujan di pipinya.En: "Sometimes we need to look deeper," she said, wiping away tears mixed with raindrops on her cheeks.Id: "Mungkin orang tua kita ingin kita bersama, merasakan ini."En: "Maybe our parents wanted us to be together, to feel this."Id: Agus melihat kedua kakaknya, merasakan kebahagiaan sederhana dari momen ini.En: Agus looked at his two older siblings, feeling the simple joy of this moment.Id: "Kita ...
