45 Minutes at KA Cepat Jakarta - Bandung
Last Moment Together
The fast train was getting closer to Bandung, and the four friends felt heavy-hearted because their journey together was coming to an end. They sat together in the same chair, with a slightly melancholic look, recalling all the wonderful memories they had made during this trip.
Siti, who was always attentive, took the chocolate from her bag and thrust it to her friends. "This is a sign of our friendship" he said with a warm smile.
Rama, Maya, Ahmad, and Siti receive chocolates with smiles and gratitude. "Thank you, Siti," said Ahmad. "This chocolate will always remind us of this journey."
As they begin to chew chocolate, Rama begins the conversation. "I can't believe that this journey is almost over" he said. "We've experienced so many things together."
Maya adds, "True, we have shared our stories, dreams, and sacrifices. And also lots of laughter and happiness."
Siti smiled gently. "This journey has given us many lessons about life and friendship. I feel so grateful to have lived it with you."
Ahmad nodded in agreement. "I feel we have grown as individuals and as friends during this journey. And I'm sure we'll continue to support each other in our life's journey."
They all sighed deeply, contemplating all the precious moments they had passed together during this journey. They remembered the times when they told stories and shared dreams at night, the times when they laughed and joked in the fast train, and the times when they support and strengthen each other.
The fast train was getting closer to the Bandung station, and the sunlight slowly began to dim. They know that this last moment together is coming soon.
"We will always have these memories" Rama said softly.
Maya looked at the beautiful Bandung mountains outside the window and said, "These mountains will always remind us of this journey."
Ahmad smiled as he grasped the chocolate from Siti. "And our friendship will remain strong, even though we are far away."
Siti nodded while shedding small tears. "We are true friends, and this journey is the beginning of many adventures that we will have together."
In the dim twilight, the fast train finally arrived at Bandung station. They all got off the train with heavy hearts, but were also filled with gratitude for the wonderful moments they shared during this journey.
They stood on the station platform, looking at each other with warm smiles. The last moment together has come, but their friendship will continue. They know that they have found true friends in each other, and no distance or time can separate them.
As the sun dims behind the mountains of Bandung, these four friends feel like they have been on an incredible journey together. They know that this is just the beginning of the many adventures they will face together in their dreamy and sacrificial lives. And they are ready to go on that adventure with an open heart and a strong friendship.
To celebrate their farewell, the four friends ordered a delicious dinner from the train restaurant. They sit at the table with happy smiles, enjoying delicious dishes while talking about what they enjoy most from this trip and what they will miss.
Siti laughed lightly when she saw Ahmad trying to cut his steak awkwardly. "Ahmad, you are indeed an accomplished writer, but it seems you need a lesson in terms of cutting meat" he said with a smile.
Ahmad muttered in a joking tone, "The ability to cut meat is indeed not one of my natural talents, Siti. But at least I tried hard."
Maya, who enjoyed a delicious pasta meal, said, "This is one of the best foods I've ever eaten on this trip. But what I enjoy the most is the moments we talk and share stories."
Rama, who was enjoying the seafood dish, nodded in agreement. "Yes, Maya. Our conversation was the best part of this journey. We have talked about our dreams, our sacrifices, and our future. It's a very meaningful moment."
When they had dinner together, they also shared stories about their favorite foods. Ahmad told about a dish he wrote called "inspiration noodles" which he always made when he felt he needed inspiration. Maya talks about the typical dishes of her native region that she misses so much, and Rama tells about her family's specialties that are always served in family events.
As the dinner dishes continued, they pondered the wonderful moments they had experienced during this journey. They remember the times they saw amazing sights from inside the fast train, the times when they were strolling around at various destinations, and of course, the times when they were walking around, moments when they talk and share stories on the train.
As dinner was about to end, Rama raised his glass. "For a strong friendship and an unforgettable journey" he said with emotion.
They all raised their glasses and rejoiced. "For our friendship to continue" Maya said.
After dinner, they remained seated at their table, enjoying the cozy atmosphere. Although this journey is almost over, they feel that their friendship will continue to grow and develop. They had experienced many things together during this journey, and it had bound them in an irreplaceable way.
As they finish dinner, they know that although this journey is almost over, they have brought home memories that they will keep forever. In the warm light of the train's lights, they feel grateful to have made this journey together and ready to face the future with a newfound passion and determination.
After they finished their delicious dinner, the atmosphere inside the fast train felt even more lively. Siti, who was always full of vigor and spontaneous ideas, suddenly stood up from her chair with a cheerful smile on her face.
"Listen," said Siti, "why don't we try something completely different? What if we dance in the hallway of this train?"
At first, the other friends were surprised by the idea. They thought that it might not be appropriate to dance in the middle of a train full of passengers. But Siti's spirited gaze and the joking look in her eyes finally won their hearts over.
"Why not?" ahmad said with a smile. "Let's try this crazy thing."
Maya agrees with enthusiasm. "I think this could be an unforgettable moment on our journey."
Rama, who was usually more serious, laughed loosely. "All right, I agree. Let's try!"
A passenger sitting in the seat next to them, who was carrying a guitar, heard their conversation and smiled broadly. He then began to play a cheerful melody, creating an increasingly lively atmosphere inside the carriage.
Nobody spoke, they all stood up and entered the narrow hallway of the carriage. Awkwardly at first, they begin to move to the rhythm of the music. But as time went on, they got more excited and started dancing freely.
Siti teases Ahmad with hilarious gestures, and Ahmad, who is usually serious, responds with a tickling dance. Maya nimbly jumps up and down, while Rama shows more cool movements. Everyone laughs and has fun, feeling the freedom in the moment.
The other passengers on the fast train also started smiling and clapping as they watched the action of these friends. They forget for a moment their daily routine and join in celebrating this passionate moment.
As the song ended, they all returned to their seats with gasping breaths, but their faces were shone by happiness. They sat down with smiles and a sense of triumph, feeling that they had created an unforgettable moment on this journey.
Rama said with a laugh, "I never thought that I would dance in a fast train. Thank you, Siti, for this crazy idea."
Siti replied with a smile. "I think we all need this kind of moment to entertain ourselves and celebrate our friendship."
Maya added, "I agree. Sometimes, we need to ignore social expectations and just live in the moment."
Ahmad, who was usually more serious, smiled widely. "This is a moment I will always remember on this journey. Thank you, guys."
In the light of the warm train lights, they continued their journey towards Bandung. Although the dance moment may seem simple, it is one of those moments full of happiness and freedom, which they will keep in their memories forever. They know that their friendship is what makes this journey so special, and they are ready to face whatever comes in their lives with the same spirit.
