Have you ever heard of a friendship crush? That strange feeling that lingers between admiration and love. It's not just wanting to be friends, but it's not quite something you can name, either. Just a quiet pull to get closer, to understand someone more deeply, without a clear reason why. Orm felt that for Lingling, a girl always within sight, yet never truly part of her world. They weren't friends, merely two people who knew each other from afar. And yet, for reasons she couldn't explain, Orm wanted to know her more. But the courage never came. Until graduation separated them, and that feeling slipped away, unspoken, unresolved. Then, fate brought them back together. In a foreign city, far from home. Under the sky of Melbourne, Orm, a student on exchange, searching for a place to stay and Lingling, offered her a place in her own home. What should've been ordinary turned complicated. There were tremors that shouldn't be there, emotions they couldn't control. And when their time was up, they returned to being strangers. But fate, it seemed, wasn't quite finished with them. Years later, they met again. This time, in Tokyo. Orm thought the feeling had died. But it hadn't. It had only been asleep-now awake, stronger, clearer, and far more painful.

Ling and Orm have built a quiet yet beautiful life together. Ling, the calm and reserved one, finds comfort in Orm's never-ending energy, while Orm, the loud and playful one, thrives in Ling's steady presence. Married with two children, Aiden and May, their home is filled with love, laughter, and the occasional pancake mishap. But love isn't just about the grand moments-it's found in everyday chaos, stolen kisses, and the way home always feels right when they're together.

They built a life out of love, loss, and hope. But some pasts refuse to stay buried. Lingling and Orm finally found happiness in each other and the family they built with their son, Rawee. After three years of heartbreak-two failed IVF attempts and a devastating miscarriage-the miracle birth of their twin daughters, Tipnaree and Pansa, brought light back into their lives. Together, they created a home full of love and laughter. But when Bam-Lingling's first love and now a widow-reappears, determined to reclaim the love she once lost, cracks begin to form in the foundation of Lingling and Orm's seemingly unshakable bond. As old wounds reopen and jealousy begin to take root, a sudden, life-changing accident threatens to shatter everything they've fought so hard to protect. Will Lingling and Orm find their way back to each other? Or will the ghosts of their past finally tear them apart? A deeply emotional journey through love, grief, and redemption, After All is a poignant tale of second chances-and the courage it takes to hold on when everything seems lost.

Ling and Orm were each other's forever. Six years of love, quiet mornings, gentle laughter - and at last, the miracle of life growing inside Orm after a long struggle with IVF. They were happy. They were ready. Until one day changed everything. On her way home with a bag of fruit for her pregnant wife, Ling crashes. And when she wakes up... she remembers nothing. Not Orm. Not their home. Not the life they built. But Orm remembers everything. And though she's carrying the weight of new motherhood, loneliness, and grief for a wife who no longer knows her - she stays. She stays for love. For hope. For the promise they once made. But how long can one woman hold up a marriage for two? And what happens... when Ling begins to fall in love with her all over again - without even knowing who she used to be? A story of memory, devotion, and the kind of love that refuses to be forgotten.
