Some connections do not begin with promises or end with goodbyes.
They exist quietly-between shared glances, unspoken words, and the spaces timing refuses to close.
Azlan and Ruth meet on an ordinary office floor, during an ordinary day, yet nothing about what follows is ordinary. He is steady, composed, and guarded by responsibility. She is gentle, observant, and new to a world that feels both intimidating and hopeful. What begins as guidance slowly turns into comfort, and comfort into something deeper-something neither of them dares to name.
Bound by circumstances, expectations, and commitments they cannot abandon, Azlan and Ruth learn to love within limits. Their bond grows in silences, in prayers whispered alone, and in moments that linger long after they pass. They are not lovers, yet they are more than friends-caught in a space where emotions exist without permission.
More Than Friends, Less Than Love is a tender story of restraint, faith, and emotional intimacy. It explores the ache of almosts, the beauty of unfinished stories, and the quiet belief that what is written for two hearts will find its way-if not today, then someday.
Because some loves are not meant to be lived loudly-
only deeply.
