Synopsis
What started as a simple favor between university roommates soon turned into an elaborate scheme of deception. When a young Nigerian university student helps her roommate purchase a pregnancy test strip, she never expects to become part of a plan to deceive an innocent man.
Determined to get money from her talking-stage partner, the roommate draws two red lines on the test strip, takes a picture, and sends it to him as proof of a pregnancy. Shocked by the news but eager to become a father, the man sends her ₦200,000 and begs her not to terminate the pregnancy. Soon afterward, she requests another ₦100,000 for antenatal registration, and he sends the money without hesitation.
With ₦300,000 in her possession, the dishonest student treats herself to a new phone, fashionable clothes, and expensive hairstyles. Meanwhile, the unsuspecting man begins choosing baby names and imagining a future with his supposed child.
But as time passes, guilt and fear begin to trouble the two roommates. Rather than confessing the truth, the woman blocks the man and disappears from his life, leaving him unaware that the pregnancy was never real.
Will their secret remain hidden forever, or will their deception eventually catch up with them?
A compelling Nigerian moral drama about greed, betrayal, misplaced trust, and the consequences of using someone's emotions for financial gain.
