"She's pregnant. We're having a baby." These eight words transform Ahmed Ahmadi's carefully balanced life in an instant. As a young British Muslim man navigating between traditional family expectations and modern British society, Ahmed has always been cautious about his relationship with Melissa. Now, facing impending fatherhood, Ahmed must confront the challenge of bringing together two families from different cultural backgrounds, each with their own expectations and traditions. His parents' dreams of an arranged marriage within their faith collide with the reality of his relationship with Melissa. Meanwhile, her family's initial hesitation about their daughter's choice adds another layer of complexity. As Ahmed navigates this unfamiliar territory, he discovers unexpected strength in his faith, new dimensions to family relationships, and a deeper understanding of what it means to create a bridge between cultures for the sake of his child.* This unique perspective on unplanned pregnancy explores universal themes of responsibility, family, and identity through the eyes of a father stepping into an unexpected future.
