Bini has waited fifty years for the moment when he could reunite with Ruthie, his childhood sweetheart, and return with her to the neighborhood where they grew up in Dubrovnik, Croatia. When Ruthie is widowed, Bini realizes the time has come. He buys a pair of one-way plane tickets, summons his courage, and comes home intending to tell Naomi, his wife, that he is about to leave.

His pulse races, the front door swings wide open, and… Bini finds himself at his and his wife’s golden wedding anniversary celebration, secretly organized by the family.
