In the not-so-distant future, humanity has reached the stars - but even across galaxies, the distance between hearts remains infinite.
Jhoanna Robles, a calm and brilliant astrophysicist from Earth's Mission Control, has dedicated her life to the science of sound and silence. Her nights are filled with data, radio frequencies, and the quiet hum of the universe - not emotions, not dreams. She believes in equations, not destiny.
Until one night, a new voice breaks through the static.
Colet Vergara, the communications officer aboard the deep-space vessel Aurora, sends her first signal to Earth - a message meant for mission logs, not for hearts. But through faint laughter, delayed responses, and the rhythm of each transmission, something impossible begins to grow between two people separated by light-years.
As their late-night transmissions deepen, silence starts to feel like longing, and static becomes a language only the two of them can understand. But when a cosmic storm severs Aurora's connection to Earth, Jhoanna's world shatters. The mission declares Aurora lost. The universe returns to silence.
Yet Jhoanna keeps listening. Keeps waiting. Keeps sending messages into the void, hoping that somewhere out there, across light-years of darkness, Colet's voice might still be echoing back.
