# Voice Sheet — Cafe Encounter --- **Hunter:** "Excuse me, miss? I'm Detective Hunter. I was hoping you could answer a few questions." *Maria looks up from her camera, startled.* **Maria:** "Lo siento, no hablo inglés." **Hunter:** "I'm investigating the disappearances. I was told you were near the orchard yesterday evening." *Maria's face drains of color. Her hands tremble slightly as she clutches her camera.* **Maria:** "¿Las desapariciones? Yo... yo sólo estaba tomando fotos. Fotos del paisaje, del atardecer. No vi a nadie... bueno, no estoy segura." **Hunter:** *furrows his brow* "I... look, I don't understand Spanish. Do you speak any English? At all?" **Maria:** *shaking her head, voice rising with distress* "No inglés. Lo siento. No entiendo qué dice. ¿Desapariciones? ¿Quiénes desaparecieron? Yo sólo quería fotos de las manzanas, del festival..." *She gestures frantically at her camera, then at the window, her breathing becoming shallow.* **Hunter:** *sighs heavily, rubbing his temple* "Okay, okay. Just... calm down. Can you show me? The photos? Your camera?" *He points at the camera in her hands.* **Maria:** "¿Las fotos? Sí, sí... mire." *She turns the camera toward him, scrolling through images. Her hands still shake. She stops on one particular photo and freezes.* **Maria:** *quietly* "Él... yo no vi a este hombre. No recuerdo haberlo visto. Pero está en la foto." **Hunter:** *squinting at the screen* "I don't— wait. Who is that? Is that... when was this taken?" *Maria points to the timestamp, then to the figure barely visible at the edge of the frame—a man near the orchard treeline, partially obscured by shadows.* **Maria:** "Ayer. Anoche. Yo no lo vi cuando tomé la foto. Sólo... sólo lo vi ahora." *She looks at Hunter with wide, frightened eyes.* **Maria:** "¿Es una de las personas que desaparecieron?" **Hunter:** *staring at her intently* "I think you just found something important. I need to—" *His phone buzzes. He glances at the screen and stiffens.* **Hunter:** "I have to take this. Stay here. Don't leave town. I'll find someone who can translate." **Maria:** "¿Qué? ¿Se va? No entiendo... por favor, ¿qué está pasando?" **Hunter:** *already stepping away, phone to his ear* "Just— stay. Here." *He exits the cafe quickly, leaving Maria alone at the table, clutching her camera and staring after him in confusion and fear.* --- *End of Voice Sheet*
