45 Minutes at KA Cepat Jakarta - Bandung
The Enchantment of Green Rice

The Jakarta-Bandung high-speed train is speeding nimbly across the lush countryside. The four passengers, Rama, Maya, Ahmad, and Siti, were sitting at the window, their eyes wide open capturing the mesmerizing natural charm around them. They could not help but be amazed as the expanse of green rice fields stretched until it was lost in the eyes.

Rama, who is usually buried in the world of technology and numbers, feels as if he has entered a completely different world. "It's amazing" he whispered as he wiped the dew on the window to get a clearer view. "I didn't even know there were places like this around Jakarta."

Maya, with her warm smile, nodded in agreement. "This is what made me fall in love with natural art. This beauty is so natural and beautiful. I can't wait to put it on the canvas."

Ahmad, who was usually quiet and serious, looked out in amazement. "It's really calming" he said. "I feel like this world is too big for everyday worries."

Siti, who has always focused on her work as a doctor, also smiled. "I think we all need to take a little time to enjoy the beauty of nature like this. It's a good medicine for the soul."

The sun rose high in the sky, emitting a warm light downward. They could see the farmers standing in the middle of the paddy fields, working hard with their pliable backs. Their conversation died down little by little as they contemplated this life in the countryside that was so different from their usual life.

A few minutes later, a fast train passed through a small village located on a hillside. Wooden houses with rumbia roofs lined up neatly along the train tracks. The friendly villagers smiled at them as the carriage drove slowly. Rama waved to the small children playing on the dusty field near the tracks, and they replied with an anxious smile.

They saw a young mother with a bamboo basket on her back was washing clothes in a slowly flowing river. Maya took a deep breath. "This is a very different picture of life in the city" he said. "I feel like we're looking at the other side of Indonesia that's so diverse."

Ahmad, who had previously only observed silently, brought himself closer to the window and pointed towards the majestic-looking mountains in the distance. "Look at those mountains" he said in awe. "They are like the guardians of this nature, guarding its beauty gallantly."

The previously calm, now also felt inspired. "It reminds me how important it is to take care of this environment and nature. We must take care of our earth so that future generations can enjoy this kind of beauty as well."

They continued to observe this unforgettable outside scene while constantly exchanging opinions and views about life, nature, and the world around them. The atmosphere in the fast car was full of admiration and appreciation for the natural beauty that is still awake in the midst of the busy big city. They all know that moments like this are a precious gift on their journey.

The train continues to glide at high speed through the stunning landscape. Siti, who was sitting in a chair by the window, suddenly felt an incredible tremor in her heart as the sun rose higher in the blue sky. He stared passionately outwards, where an endless stretch of green rice fields lay beneath him. Persevering farmers work under the hot sun, adding to the beauty of the image.

Siti subconsciously brought her face closer to the window and pointed with trembling fingers. "Hey, look at that!" he exclaimed enthusiastically, his voice filled with admiration.

All the surrounding passengers, including Rama, Maya, and Ahmad, were immediately attracted. They followed Siti's gaze and immediately saw what made her so stunned.

Among the lush green rice fields, colorful wildflowers flourished. They formed an unexpected landscape, almost like a living painting of nature. There were bright red, light purple, and yellow flowers that shone in the sunlight.

Ahmad stunned. "Wow, it's really beautiful" she said, eyes wide open by this unexpected beauty of nature.

Rama, who is usually found in front of a computer screen, is now amazed by this natural beauty. He smiled at Siti. "Thank you for watching, Siti. It's an incredible moment."

Siti herself could not cover her happy smile. "I just feel lucky to be here with all of you and witness this beauty together."

As the fast train continued to accelerate, they continued to watch this unforgettable scene with a feeling of amazement. They talk about how beautiful nature is and how moments like this can inspire them in their daily lives.

Several other passengers sitting near them also began to approach and join in the chat about this unexpected natural beauty. Some even took out their phones and started taking photos of the scene, sharing it on social media for the world to see.

The atmosphere in the fast car is full of admiration and appreciation for the natural beauty that is still awake in the midst of the busy big city. Siti, with sparkling eyes, feels that this moment is a special gift, and she is grateful to be able to share that miracle with her friends on their incredible journey.

Maya, who always carries a small camera in her bag, quickly takes it out when she sees the stunning natural scenery. Her hands moved proficiently, setting the camera settings quickly to capture this unexpected natural beauty.

"You won't want to miss this moment" Maya said to the others as she snapped her first picture. He captured the details of the colorful flowers that glowed in the morning sun.

Ahmad, who was originally only fascinated, is now also inspired by this natural beauty. He pulls out his phone and asks Maya to help him set the phone's camera settings. "I must have this photo as a reminder" Ahmad said excitedly.

Rama, who usually prefers to deal with technology rather than nature, feels compelled to contribute to this moment. He pulled out his phone and offered to take a photo together. "Let's have the memories together" he said with a big smile.

They were posing in front of the window, the background was an amazing view outside. Siti, who had previously been so fascinated by the wildflowers, also joined the portrait. They laughed and posed with various facial expressions, feeling happy and grateful.

After the photo was taken, they all returned to their seats with smiles that never faded. Maya checks her photos and smiles with satisfaction. "We have great memories of this journey now" he said. "And I hope these pictures will remind us how extraordinary nature is."

Ahmad nodded in agreement. "I will never forget this moment. Thank you, Siti, for watching."

Siti smiled, feeling moved by their words. "We all shared this moment together. This is a moment we will always remember on this journey."

As the fast train continued to accelerate, they continued to witness this unforgettable scene, sometimes with eyes filled with admiration, and sometimes laughing and joking with each other. The atmosphere in the fast car was full of admiration and appreciation for the natural beauty that is still awake in the midst of the busy big city.

Their journey becomes more meaningful with moments like these, which not only embrace the beauty of nature, but also strengthen their bonds of friendship. In the simplicity and wonder of nature, they find a deep happiness, which they will bring together as fond memories of their incredible journey.
