Why Not Us?

When Jasmine's best friend, Leslie, is diagnosed with cancer, there's no other place to run but straight into the chaos—holding Leslie's hand through doctor's appointments, rounds of treatment, and every uncertain moment. But T, Jasmine's longtime girlfriend, is unsure of how to stay connected when everything feels like it's falling apart.

Then there's Portia, Leslie's nine-year-old daughter, who’s growing up in the shadow of her mother's illness. Jasmine has promised to protect her like her own, but it's harder than she imagined. Along the way, Jasmine and T's couple time gets overshadowed by a whirlwind of after-school activities and family drama that threatens to engulf their relationship.

As the challenges mount, Jasmine and T must confront their own insecurities and learn what partnership truly means. Can their love survive the harsh realities of caregiving, sacrifice, and the weight of it all?
