kelabu dan cuaca tidak menentu membuat segalanya tak bisa diprediksi.En: The garden is famous for its exotic flowers and plants, but this time the gray sky and unpredictable weather made everything uncertain.Id: Hujan turun kapan saja tanpa peringatan.En: Rain would fall at any moment without warning.Id: Ayu, di sisi lain, menikmati setiap detik perjalanan mereka di taman ini.En: Ayu, on the other hand, was enjoying every second of their journey in the park.Id: Dia terpesona dengan keindahan alam di sekitarnya.En: She was captivated by the surrounding natural beauty.Id: Tanpa mengetahui rencana Putra, Ayu terus mengagumi setiap bunga yang mekar, sesekali mengambil gambar untuk diunggah ke media sosial.En: Unaware of Putra's plan, Ayu continued admiring each blooming flower,

menunggu saat yang tepat.En: He waited for the right moment.Id: Namun, kerumunan orang yang memenuhi taman membuatnya sulit menemukan momen tenang.En: However, the crowd filling the garden made it

menari di atas atap gazebo, Putra menatap Ayu dengan penuh keyakinan.En: Accompanied by the sound of raindrops dancing on the gazebo roof, Putra looked at Ayu with full confidence.Id: "Ayu, aku ingin bertanya sesuatu," katanya, suaranya bergetar karena gugup.En: "Ayu, I want to ask you something," he said, his voice trembling with nervousness.Id: Ayu menatap penuh keingintahuan, sedikit terkejut dengan keseriusan Putra.En: Ayu looked on with curiosity, slightly surprised by Putra's seriousness.Id: Putra merogoh saku dan mengeluarkan cincin, lalu berlutut di hadapannya.En: Putra reached into his pocket and pulled out the ring, then knelt before her.Id: "Ayu, maukah kau menjadi pendamping hidupku?En: "Ayu, would you be my life companion?"Id: " Suara Putra meski lirih, penuh dengan

Apa ini?" tanya Rina terkejut, matanya melebar melihat kekacauan indah di depannya.En: "Adi! What's this?" asked Rina, surprised, her eyes widening at the beautiful chaos in front of her.Id: "Ah, itu..." Adi tergagap, mencoba merangkai kata yang masuk akal.En: "Ah, that's..." Adi stammered, trying to find words that made sense.Id: Namun sebelum ia bisa menjelaskan, hujan deras mulai membanjiri bunker melalui lubang air yang tidak tertutup rapat.En: But before he could explain, heavy rain started flooding the bunker through an improperly sealed drainage hole.Id: Tanpa aba-aba, air mulai merembes ke dalam bunker, menciptakan genangan kecil yang makin lama makin besar.En: Without warning, water began seeping into the bunker, creating a small pool that kept growing larger.Id: Terkejut dengan kenyataan itu, mereka semua akhirnya tertawa.En: Shocked by this turn of events, they all ended up laughing.Id: Pesta rahasia berubah menjadi ajang bermain air.En: The secret party turned into an impromptu water play event.Id: "Mari kita membuat kenangan!" seru Budi, melompat ke dalam genangan air.En: "Let’s make memories!" shouted Budi, jumping into the puddle.Id: Di tengah segala persiapan yang kacau dan air yang mengalir, Adi menyadari satu hal penting.En: Amid all the chaotic preparations and flowing water, Adi realized one important thing.Id: Menyaksikan Rina tertawa dan ikut bermain air, ia menyadari bahwa kebahagiaan yang tulus dan kebersamaan lebih berarti daripada rencana besar yang mengesankan.En: Watching Rina laugh and join in the water play, he ...
