Dia kembali mengusikku dengan mengaku kehilangan ingatan. Dia mengira kalau aku masih suaminya. Gila. Secara formal, sih, kita belum resmi berpisah. Sebenarnya surat cerai kita sudah ada di kantor pengacara, tapi belum ada satu pun dari kita yang menandatanganinya. Dan sayangnya hatiku sudah mengatakan sebaliknya.

Begitu ingatannya pulih, aku akan meninggalkannya. Karena bagiku, enggak bakal ada yang namanya kesempatan kedua. Tetapi ... seperti yang bisa kalian tebak, semuanya enggak berjalan sesuai rencana. ──୨ৎ────୨ৎ── Pecang with Benefit Season I
