"Kasalanan na nga ang umibig dahil madre ka, at sa babae pa talaga."
Maria Soledad "Sol" Peñaflorida had already devoted her entire life to God long before she was transferred to a small town church in North Carolina. She came there believing it would only be temporary. A quiet place to serve, pray, and eventually leave behind without attachment.
Then she met Christina, the woman who came to church every Sunday with her family, always dressed like she belonged in the softest parts of heaven. The woman who looked at Sol a little too long, spoke to her a little too gently, and slowly became the reason why prayers started feeling heavier on Sol's tongue.
What they had was never simple enough to be called friendship, but never safe enough to become love.
So they stayed in between, because Sol knew the moment she chose Christina, she would lose the only life she had ever known, and Christina knew loving a woman who could never fully choose her would eventually ruin her.
