Glory Ikpe and Abraham Martial have known each other since childhood in their small town in Southern Nigeria. The summer after university, they spend every waking moment together — walking through markets, sitting by the river, attending local festivals. Their bond is undeniable, but neither admits what their hearts already know: that they are in love. On the morning Glory leaves for Lagos to pursue her career, Abraham almost confesses his feelings but holds back. She departs believing he never felt the same, and he remains behind, convinced she deserves more than he can offer.
