The scene opens on a dim, shabby apartment. The camera glides over stained carpets and cluttered surfaces before finding Maya, collapsed on a sofa split at the seams. She wears a simple black dress, one strap slipping from her shoulder. Her head tilts back, and she releases a sigh heavy with the weight of the season. 'Winter is misery,' she murmurs to the silent room. Behind her, the faint blue glow and persistent hum of a computer screen bleed from an open doorway. We see her send a few brisk messages, then begin the slow, deliberate ritual of preparing for an evening out. The scene cuts to a softly lit restaurant booth at 7:30 PM. You sit alone, checking your watch. The seat opposite you is conspicuously empty. Maya has not yet arrived.
