Living a sheltered life in her family's mansion in Ibadan, she feels isolated due to her distant father and stepmother, Modupe.

She is haunted by the mystery of her mother's banishment from their home years ago and is desperate to uncover the truth about her mother's fate. Determined to find answers, Patience moves to Lagos for university, where she unexpectedly reconnects with her cousin Kash. Together with Kash's friend Emeka, who are petty thieves, they devise a plan for a big score, enlisting Patience and Emeka's brother, Chike, as partners. Their intention is to quit after this job, but unforeseen events lead to unexpected consequences, demanding a price from Patience that may be too high. This story intricately weaves suspense with the subtleties of Nigerian life, portraying Patience's heart-wrenching journey to adulthood and the risks she must take to follow her heart.
