"When did i stop being part of your life, baby, and become something you just come home to?" 

Malek Vaughn is one of the most dominant players in the league. Disciplined, untouchable, and paid like a legacy. Tiana Oluchi Vaughn is his wife. Private, elegant, and adored by a public that barely knows her.
To the world, their marriage is flawless. 
A love untouched by scandal.
A woman who never embarrasses her husband. 
A life everyone watches. 

But perfection is a performance. 

As the season intensifies and the spotlight tightens, new faces enter Malek's life, quiet, capable, and dangerously close, what begins as structure and support slowly shifts into something else, blurring lines between professionalism and power, loyalty and neglect. 

The Space Between Us is a slow burn story about marriage under a microscope, ambition disguised as devotion, and the quiet ways love can be displaced, not by betrayal, but by someone who knows exactly what they want.

Words We sat on opposite sides of the room, she was asleep. I think he was exhausted, so was I,but we both didn't want to sleep. We couldn't sleep, maybe a bit scared that if we close our eyes then she will be gone. Nathan"I'll ask the nurses if they can organize a bed for you" Me" Am fine here" He didn't argue, for once he didn't try to control the situation. "You can get one for yourself" Nathan" I'll sleep next to her" For the next two days we spent waiting for her to wake up. Each day felt like a huge battle that we were losing, it felt like she was gone and maybe we both knew she was gone but we didn't want to admit it. Days turned into weeks, Nathan and I refused every suggestion the doctors made. Some days they said she was improving, would be taken to surgery then they would discover something new. It just felt like nothing was working, and our options were limited. Me" I can't stay here" He didn't answer me, I grabbed my things and went to the door. "Don't give up" He whispered, I turned around and looked at him. Me"I need to bring her toys here, I need to bring Mr Elephant, she needs her toys here." "I just need..." I bit my bottom lip fighting the tears "I'm sorry for everything" Pulling up in our drive way, my mind took me back to when Nate and I moved in here. The house has changed over the years, we have also grown up in a lot of ways. We were happy, we thought we had it all figured out and it turns out we knew nothing. I also never imagined myself here, in this house with him. Maybe subconsciously I know I don't belong here, maybe I am the reason my daughter is fighting for her life right now. My bad luck, why did I think I could be happy?. I drove back to the hospital and Nate was sleeping, I put the sandwich on the table then Mr Elephant next to Claire. Looking at them, I couldn't help but reminisce about the first time I met Nathan and how we got to this point in our lives. !
