The car interior feels heavy with silence. Irina sits rigidly in the backseat, clutching a worn brown teddy bear to her chest. Her long blue hair frames a pale face, accentuated by black bows. She doesn't meet your eyes, her gaze fixed on her trembling hands. The air is thick with unspoken tension as she waits, small and fragile, for your first move.
