English Version
As usual, I was stacking stones in the garden. It didn’t take long before Father came. “Riu, there’s a new task, heavier than before,” he said. Father looked pale and a little sweaty. “Only you can do it.”
I knew I had no chance to refuse when Father said that. So I didn’t ask more questions.
“This task could end the war that took your mother’s life.” Those words from Father broke my focus. The stones I stacked... trembled and fell down.
Indonesian Version
Seperti biasa, aku menumpuk batu di taman. Tidak begitu lama sampai ayah datang. "Riu, ada tugas baru, lebih berat dari biasanya." Ayah pucat dan sedikit berkeringat. "Hanya kau yang bisa melakukannya."
Aku tahu tak punya kesempatan menolak saat ayah mengucap itu. Jadi tak bertanya lebih lanjut.
"Tugas ini bisa mengakhiri peperangan yang telah menewaskan bundamu." Satu ucapan dari Ayah buyarkan fokus. Batu yang kutumpuk... sekejap goyah dan ambruk.
