Bunga pada Pukul Tiga Pagi
At three in the morning, Bangkok's biggest flower market is more awake than midday, and it never really closes.

Sekarang pukul tiga pagi, dan jalanan ini lebih hidup daripada tengah hari. Truk datang satu demi satu, penuh karung bunga marigold, mawar, dan anggrek langsung dari desa. Para pekerja bergerak cepat, menumpuk bunga menjadi menara yang lebih tinggi daripada orang dewasa, saling meneriakkan harga di atas kebisingan.
Ini Pak Khlong Talat, pasar bunga terbesar di Bangkok, dan pasar ini sebenarnya tidak pernah tutup. Pada siang hari tempat ini terlihat hampir mengantuk, hanya beberapa kios dan sudut yang sepi. Tapi begitu matahari terbenam, penjual bunga dari seluruh kota datang membeli stok segar sebelum fajar, dan pasar pun penuh warna dan suara sampai matahari terbit.
Bayangkan kamu berdiri di sana sendiri, dikelilingi aroma melati dan teriakan para pedagang, membeli seikat besar bunga sebelum kebanyakan orang bahkan bangun tidur. Di pasar seperti ini, malam dan siang tinggal bertukar tempat.
That's the story.
