Leila: The Girl Who Waited

Ahmed Samir Hassan, 2025

What if the only thing standing between you and the love of your life is one impossible bet? At sixteen, Ahmed Samir Hassan cut class, boarded a ramshackle bus from Cairo to Alexandria, and stole his very first kiss. Then life—families, distance, and a decade of silence—tore Ahmed and Leila apart. Ten years later, a single WhatsApp message changes everything. Leila is free, Ahmed is broke, and the world is burning—quite literally. War jitters, rolling black-outs, and a wave of AI layoffs have left this Middle-Eastern dreamer with nothing but an unfinished novel and a stubborn heart. So he does the reckless thing. Sell 1,000 copies of his sci-fi debut in 90 days—or postpone the wedding yet again. Leila – The Girl Who Waited Ten Years is a raw, funny, and fiercely honest memoir that careens from secret teenage meet-ups on the Mediterranean coast to midnight panic attacks in a power-cut apartment. It's about first love that refuses to die, the absurd hustle of self-publishing, and a writer who would rather starve than surrender the page. Inside you'll find • Fire-lit train platforms, forbidden kisses, and frog tattoos • Indie rock anthems, deadline meltdowns, and a shih-tzu named Messi • A true behind-the-scenes look at what happens when you gamble your future on words And if the bet succeeds? Every single reader's name will be carved, painted, or etched somewhere inside Ahmed & Leila's first home. Because real love is messy, real risk is terrifying, and real stories never fade. Open the book—become part of the ending.
