A guy, a girl, six weeks, one house. 

If one day is enough to change a person's life, then six weeks is more than enough for Zayyad, 23, and Beverly, 19, to fall for each other. 

_

Zayyad returns from the United Kingdom, a not-so-fresh graduate who has a plan to build an empire of his own without the help of his billionaire father, because he wants to be independent; he leaves Kano-his homeland-and heads for Abuja to start up his company from scratch, his best friend, Seun, convinces Zayyad to live in his house until the company construction is finished, and Zayyad obliges. With his stay in Seun's house, he gets to see the girl he's had some weird longtime feelings for (as he would describe it) and that girl is Beverly, his best friend's younger sister.

There's a lot that comes with them wanting each other, a whole lot, from the tribal difference to Beverly being his best friend's sister, to the surprises from Zayyad's family, to him breaking a major bro code, six years of friendship and trust. Beverly and Zayyad together are chaos to the important people around them, except themselves.

Will they pull through or the universe has other plans?
