It doesn't happen all at once.
It never does.
Things shift.
People change.
Cracks go unnoticed... until something finally breaks.
And no one really notices it at first.
Until one day, they do.
And by then, maybe, it's already too late.
The Quiet Between Us explores the silence between a group of friends, the kind that grows slowly, quietly... until it becomes impossible to ignore.
Some things don't disappear; they just fade away
Can something that once felt unbreakable... really fall apart?
