A10. LONDON. VAUXHALL CORSA. Cruising down the A10 in Hamza’s car, Ibby, Ahmed and Hamza are heading to meet their new baby sister Chama. Dad’s on his way back to London tomorrow and Mum needs to be picked up from the hospital and the boys say that they are on it but come into some trouble in between their journey. Ibby is stuck in the whimsical danger they whip up, all the while rearing towards the dreaded moment of meeting her sister, afraid of becoming just another one of the boys.
