En: The blue sky and scorching sun envelop Bandara Internasional Soekarno-Hatta Jakarta.

En: The morning feels busy with the sound of rolling suitcases, announcements echoing throughout, and the hustle and bustle of passengers occupied with their respective travels.

Id: Di tengah semua itu, Dita dan Rizal duduk di kursi ruang tunggu.
En: Amidst it all, Dita and Rizal sit in the waiting area seats.

En: Dita, the diligent elder sister focused on her career, stares at the announcement board.

Id: "Rizal, kita harus bicara," katanya tegas.
En: "Rizal, we need to talk," she says firmly.

Id: Plan Dita sederhana, namun rumit di hati Rizal.

Id: Dekat dengan keluarga, dekat dengan kehangatan kampung halaman," jawab Rizal, mencoba membujuk Dita dengan perasaan yang dalam.
En: Close to family, close to the warmth of home," replies Rizal, trying to persuade Dita with deep emotion.

Id: "Aku ingin kita bisa tetap saling mendukung, dekat dengan orang tua.
En: "I want us to keep supporting each other, close to our parents."

Id: "Melihat tekad di mata adiknya, Dita mulai ragu.

Id: Keputusan besar ada di tangannya, dan tekanan waktu tak memberi ruang untuk berpikir panjang.
En: A big decision lies in his hands, and the pressure of time doesn't allow for long contemplation.

Id: Akhirnya, dengan ketetapan hati, Rizal berdiri dan menggenggam tangan Dita.
En: Finally, with resolve, Rizal stands and takes Dita's hand.

Id: "Aku ikut denganmu, Kak.
En: "I'll go with you, Sister.

Id: Tapi janji, setiap bulan kita akan video call keluarga.
En: But promise, we'll video call the family every month.
