"Kontraknya akan berakhir dalam setengah bulan. Aku rencana mau cerai sama Leonard." Saat berkata begitu, Liana menonton video di tabletnya yang telah diputar ratusan kali. Dalam video itu, suaminya menatap kekasih masa kecilnya dan berkata dengan penuh perasaan, "Emily, aku masih belum bisa lupakan kamu. Kembali ke sisiku, ya?" Kemudian, Leonard Hadinata mencium bibir merah Emily. Sementara itu, Kai Hadinata, putra yang telah dikandung Liana selama sembilan bulan dan dilahirkannya dengan mempertaruhkan nyawanya, berseru lantang, "Papa, aku mau Bibi Emily jadi mamaku!" Tekad Liana untuk pergi pun menjadi makin kuat. Di ujung telepon, Melisa, ibunya Leonard terdiam sejenak. Kemudian, dia menasihati Liana untuk berpikir matang-matang. "Kamu harus pertimbangkan baik-baik. Kalau cerai, kamu bukan cuma harus tinggalkan pekerjaanmu saat ini. Karena ada kontrak itu, kamu bahkan nggak akan kebagian banyak harta." Liana menjawab tanpa ragu, "Emm. Berhubung akta nikah itu palsu, aku pasti akan pergi tanpa ambil sepeser pun. Jangan khawatir." Melisa mencoba membujuknya untuk tetap tinggal, "Kalau bersikeras mau cerai, kamu pasti nggak akan dapatkan hak asuh anak. Kamu rela untuk pisah sama anakmu?"

Sebagai perencana pernikahan, aku sendiri yang merancang pernikahan suamiku dan selingkuhannya. Bersama Julian selama lima tahun: tiga tahun pandemi, dua tahun menikah dan punya anak. Pernikahan yang kuimpikan, di mulutnya selalu saja menjadi "lain kali". Sampai suatu hari, aku menerima proyek pernikahan baru. Pemberi tugasnya seorang gadis muda dengan alis dan mata yang melengkung indah, senyumnya merekah. "Ini lokasi yang khusus dipilih pacarku, katanya pernikahan harus diadakan di sini." Aku menerima berkas itu, pandanganku tertahan pada nama lokasinya: sebuah gereja di Negara Faricia yang sudah berkali-kali kusebut pada suamiku, tempat impianku. Aku baru saja hendak tersenyum sambil mengagumi, ternyata ada orang di dunia ini yang seleranya begitu sejalan denganku. Detik berikutnya, nama mempelai pria masuk ke pandanganku. Julian. Ujung jariku terhenti tanpa suara di atas lembaran kertas. Gadis di seberang masih tenggelam dalam kebahagiaan, lalu menambahkan dengan lembut, "Katanya, meski kami baru bersama dua bulan, dia ingin memberiku pernikahan terbaik." Aku melengkungkan bibir, menatap wajah yang selama lima tahun ini bersamaku dari pagi hingga malam. Setelah menunggu bertahun-tahun, akhirnya tiba juga hari di mana aku merancang pernikahannya. Sayangnya ... pengantinnya bukan aku.
