A2–B10:28
I stared at the green soup.
Aku menatap sup hijau itu.
It smelled strange and strong.
Baunya aneh dan menyengat.
My brother said it was delicious.
Kakakku bilang itu enak.
I did not believe him.
Aku tidak percaya padanya.
But I wanted to be brave.
Tapi aku ingin berani.
So I took a small spoon.
Jadi aku ambil sendok kecil.
I dipped it into the soup.
Aku mencelupkannya ke sup.
I closed my eyes and ate.
Aku pejamkan mata dan makan.
It tasted like nothing I knew.
Rasanya seperti tak ada yang kukenal.
But it was good, very good.
Tapi enak, sangat enak.
I took another spoon right away.
Aku langsung ambil sendok lagi.
My brother smiled and nodded.
Kakakku tersenyum dan mengangguk.
