Kunle and Soroichi, two lover just coming from a night out, listen to their neighbors fight, which starts out funny. Until the conversation bleeds into their personal lives, and they argue about their relationship and what the future of it looks like. What starts as an alien argument between strangers becomes a fuel that threatens the lives of this young couple, and their future becomes a question of existentialism.

On a quiet morning in a small apartment kitchen, longtime friends Femi and Chioma make pancakes the way they always do, with teasing jokes, comfortable silences, and the kind of ease that only years of friendship can build. But when Chioma's phone lights up with a message from the man she's been "talking to," something shifts. What begins as playful banter slowly turns into something more fragile. Beneath the laughter and kitchen chaos, Femi must confront feelings he has carefully buried, while Chioma wrestles with the safety of their friendship versus the possibility of something deeper. As the pancakes cook and tension rises, a single impulsive moment forces them to ask the question they've both been avoiding: are they just friends, or have they been pretending all along? In a story set entirely within the intimacy of a kitchen, Let's Make Pancakes explores vulnerability, timing, and the quiet risks required to choose love over comfort.
