Tapi Budi, sahabatnya, selalu penuh semangat.
But Budi, her close friend, was always full of enthusiasm.

Dewi felt awkward.
Ia hanya ingin membeli sayuran tanpa ribut-ribut.

Tapi kerumunan mulai bertambah, bahkan Rina, penjual tahu langganan Dewi, ikut bergabung.
But the crowd began to grow, even Rina, Dewi's regular tofu seller, joined in.

Kok saya baru tahu!
How come I only just found out!"
" katanya skeptis, sambil tertawa heran.
she said skeptically, while laughing in surprise.
Situasi semakin riuh, dan tiba-tiba ada pengumuman soal lomba menyanyi dadakan di pasar.
The situation became more chaotic, and suddenly there was an announcement about an impromptu singing contest in the market.
"Ayo ikutan, Mbak!
"Join in, Miss!
Buktikan kalau Mbak bukan Nia Arista!
Prove that you're not Nia Arista!"
" seru seseorang dari kerumunan.

Budi memandang Dewi dengan mata berkilat, "Kesempatan langka, Dewi.
Budi looked at Dewi with sparkling eyes, "A rare chance, Dewi.
Ayo, ikutin aja.
Come on, just join in.
Pasti seru!
It'll be fun!"
"Dewi, meski gugup, mengangguk.
Dewi, despite feeling nervous, nodded.
Ia melangkah ke depan.
She stepped forward.
Kerumunan terdiam sejenak, menanti.
The crowd fell silent for a moment, waiting.
Dengan suara lembut namun tegas, Dewi mulai menyanyikan lagu daerah yang dikenal banyak orang: "Jali-Jali.
With a soft yet firm voice, Dewi began to sing a folk song familiar to many: "Jali-Jali."
"Saat lagu berakhir, tepuk tangan dan sorakan memenuhi pasar.
As the song ended, applause and cheers filled the market.
Dewi tersenyum, merasa lega dan bahagia.
Dewi smiled, feeling relieved and happy.

She might not be Nia Arista, but that day she really felt special.
Kerumunan bubar dengan senyuman, dan Budi menatap Dewi dengan bangga.
The crowd dispersed with smiles, and Budi looked at Dewi proudly.
"Lihat, Dewi, kamu tetap bisa bersenang-senang walau itu semua salah paham.
"See, Dewi, you can still have fun even though it was all a misunderstanding."
"Dewi menghela nafas, merasa pelajaran berharga tertanam di hatinya.
Dewi sighed, feeling that a valuable lesson had been embedded in her heart.
Terkadang, perhatian tak terduga bisa membawa kebahagiaan, tak hanya bagi diri sendiri tetapi juga untuk orang di sekitar.
Sometimes, unexpected attention can bring happiness, not only for oneself but also for those around us.
Ia menyadari, kadang-kadang hidup boleh sedikit berbeda dari rencana awalnya, dan itu tidak apa-apa.
She realized that sometimes life can go a little differently than initially planned, and that's okay.
Dengan belanjaan penuh di tangan dan diiringi tawa Budi yang tak henti-henti, mereka melangkah keluar pasar dengan perasaan puas.
With their hands full of groceries and accompanied by Budi's endless laughter, they walked out of the market, feeling satisfied.
Hari yang awalnya biasa saja, berubah menjadi kenangan manis yang akan mereka kenang selamanya.
A day that had initially seemed ordinary turned into a sweet memory they would cherish forever.
