Across, Apart, Together - Bk 3

Two years after they stepped into each other's lives, Malik and Thayu have navigated grief, nosy neighbours, bullying, accidents, love interests, distance and time. But through it all, their connection grew into something none of them ever anticipated.

In Form 2 and across counties, they must learn to live apart from one another even though their hearts yearn more than anything to be together. There's still no language for what they are. For the most part, they don't need to define it. But watching eyes make growing into awareness naturally an impossible task.

Forced to choose between the norm and each other, Malik and Thayu must fight past prejudice and their forced independence to recover moments of shared comfortable silence, easy laughter, and what it truly means to be together when life constantly pulls you apart.
