The Distance Between Me and Heaven

After knowing each other for fourteen years, Asher and Theo decide to stay in the same hostel, believing it will simply be another chapter of their lifelong friendship.

But living under the same roof changes everything.

Somewhere between sleepless nights, shared meals, laughter that echoed through cramped hostel rooms, and the quiet comfort of simply existing beside each other, Theo becomes more than Asher ever intended him to be.

He becomes home.

But home isn't always a place you're allowed to stay.

As their bond grows deeper, the line between friendship and something more begins to blur, leaving Asher caught between loving the one person he was never supposed to love and the faith he's terrified of betraying.

As depression tightens its grip and unanswered prayers slowly turn into silence, Asher is forced to confront questions he never thought he'd ask. Can love and faith exist side by side? Why would God let him fall in love if loving Theo was a sin? What do you do when your greatest blessing feels like your greatest sin?

But when love, faith, and friendship begin pulling them in different directions, one question remains:

Will Asher and Theo find a way through the impossible... or watch the years they built together quietly fall apart?
