He was the first man she fell in love with.

She was the first woman to change his life.

For over two decades, plus size beauty Zadie has dodged any serious commitment and act of intimacy in her romantic relationships, because of her best friend Alfie. After finding out Alfie is getting married, Zadie begins to reevaluate her unrequited love for him. She is now ready to move onto the next phase of her life, untethered to him. Just as she’s on the precipice of finding new love, Alfie begins to question what his life would be like if she was no longer in love with him in the way he has become accustomed to. Join the two of them as they explore their relationship through snapshots of their lives over the last twenty-one years.

Will they finally find themselves on the same page at the same time?
