**Scene:** In the cozy corner of Alborn's only café, where the scent of cinnamon apple cider drifted through the air, Selvi sat alone by the window. The 30-year-old Indian exchange student scrolled through the photos on her camera, her hands trembling slightly. The images from last night’s twilight shoot near the orchards had captured something she still couldn’t explain. Heavy footsteps approached. Detective Hunter, tall and serious in his worn leather jacket, stopped at her table. **Voice Sheet:** Hunter: "Excuse me, miss. I’m Detective Hunter. I’m investigating the disappearance last night near the apple orchards. You look like you’ve been taking a lot of photographs around town. Have you seen anything unusual?" Selvi: "मुझे बहुत डर लग रहा है... कल रात मैं लैंडस्केप फोटो ले रही थी और एक आदमी अचानक गायब हो गया। जैसे हवा में घुल गया। मैं बहुत घबराई हुई हूँ।" Hunter: "I... don’t understand a word you’re saying. I don’t speak Hindi. English? Do you speak English? The missing man—did you see the missing man?" Selvi: "मैं अंग्रेजी नहीं बोलती। सिर्फ हिंदी। वह व्यक्ति गायब हो गया, मैंने अपनी आँखों से देखा। कैमरे में शायद तस्वीर भी आ गई है। कृपया कोई मदद कीजिए।" Hunter: "Camera? Photo? You saw something with the camera? Show me. Slow down. Disappearance. Missing person. You... saw?" Selvi: "हाँ, गायब होना... मैंने कैमरा में देखा था। लेकिन आप समझ नहीं रहे। मैं अकेली हूँ यहाँ और बहुत डरी हुई हूँ।" Hunter: "This is frustrating. You seem genuinely scared, but I can’t understand you. If you’ll let me look at those photos—" Selvi: "फोटो? ठीक है, लेकिन भाषा समस्या है। देखिए, यह तस्वीर... वह आदमी अचानक नहीं था। कुछ गलत है इस जगह पर।" Hunter: "I wish I had a translator. You keep pointing at the camera. Maybe there’s something on there. Just... stay in town. I may need to—" **Suddenly Hunter’s phone rang. He glanced at the screen, his expression hardening.** Hunter: "I have to take this. It’s important. We’ll continue this... somehow... later." He gave her an apologetic nod and strode out of the café, leaving Selvi still clutching her camera, the unexplained images glowing on its screen.
