Close But Never Mine...

In the heat of a Texas neighborhood where everybody knows your name-and your business-Koree has learned how to exist without explaining himself. Quiet but observant, he sees things people try to hide, especially in the way they look at him.

Sunjai is everything Koree tries not to get caught up in. Confident, respected, and always surrounded by the right crowd, he moves like he has nothing to prove. But when the two of them start crossing paths more than they should, something unspoken begins to build-something neither of them knows how to name.

What starts as lingering glances and quiet conversations turns into something heavier... something harder to ignore. Because the closer Sunjai gets, the more he pulls away. And the more Koree realizes that whatever this is between them-it's not just complicated.

It's dangerous.

In a world where reputation is everything and truth comes with consequences, Koree is forced to figure out what hurts more: hiding who you are... or wanting someone who refuses to do the same.
