When fifteen-year-old Izukanji drifts off to sleep after a long night of study, she never imagines that her life is about to change forever. In the stillness of midnight, a tiny, unfamiliar voice calls out to her – soft, insistent and impossibly real. It introduces itself simply as Embryo, her unborn child.
At first, Izukanji dismisses the encounter as a strange dream, but when the voice returns night after night, revealing secrets she thought no one knew, the line between dream and reality begins to blur. The embryo speaks with innocence, wit and wisdom far beyond its age, confronting Izukanji with the choices that led to her unplanned pregnancy and the fears that now consume her.
As the conversations deepen, Izukanji wrestles with shame, denial and the mounting pressure from her boyfriend and family. Through these nightly visits, the embryo becomes both her conscience and her comforter, urging her to see beyond fear – to find strength, forgiveness, and purpose in a world quick to judge.
