Pernikahan yang terjalin selama lima tahun berakhir dengan satu kesimpulan paling sederhana. Nyala yang menaungi telah padam. Erlangga Sadewa Hadipranoto percaya jika segalanya memang telah redup. Sementara bagi Kiara Raihanun Sastira, nyala yang menaungi tak lagi cukup. Setidaknya itulah yang mereka yakini. Sama-sama percaya bahwa percikan itu telah hilang. Bahwa semuanya telah usai. Meredup. Padam. Pergi. Yang tak mereka sadari, ada sesuatu yang tak pernah mereka bicarakan. Seumpama retak yang tak pernah diklarifikasi. Namun jika sebuah kesempatan datang dan kembali mempertemukan, akankah mereka berani kembali menempuh jalan untuk memperbaiki nyala yang mungkin tak pernah benar-benar padam? Some sparks don't disappear. They wait.
