THE SPACE BETWEEN US

"Was there a lifetime waiting for us
in a world where I was yours?" - Lifetime by Ben&Ben

For three years, Lingling Kwong and Orm Sethratanapong had been inseparable partners in one of Thailand's most prestigious companies-an engineer and an architect constantly mistaken as lovers by everyone around them.

They laugh it off every time.

"Our friendship is too precious to ruin."

But what Orm never knew was that Lingling had already fallen in love with her the first day they met in the company lobby as fresh applicants years ago.

And maybe that was the problem.

Because somewhere between morning breakfasts inside Lingling's car, nightly phone calls, beach trips, lingering hand-holding, and forehead kisses that lasted a little too long-

their friendship slowly became something neither of them dared to name.

Until one night, Lingling's friends finally warned her that she was heading straight toward heartbreak.

But Lingling only smiled and whispered,

"Maybe," she said softly.
"But if it's Orm... I think I'd risk my lifetime for her."

And for the first time in years-

Both began wondering if maybe they had already crossed the line long ago.
