Same bright hallway, side-window daylight. Zhenya mid-step, backpack on left shoulder, phone in her right hand. Foster mother, tall adult woman in dark-grey cardigan, tight dark bun, stands ahead blocking the hallway, right hand extended. Everyone on screen is an adult.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Женя: Zhenya and centered — a fictional young woman of about sixteen, slender and slightly hunched as if guarding herself. Oval pale face with faint freckles, large guarded grey-green eyes, soft downturned mouth, light natural brows. Straight ash-brown hair falling past her shoulders, a few strands tucked behind one ear. She wears a thin grey knitted cardigan over a plain pale cotton dress that ends at the knee, dark tights, and scuffed worn canvas sneakers. One hand clutches a small cloth bag strap across her chest. Her expression is quiet, searching, vulnerable yet resolute. Setting: a dim nighttime courtyard beside a wooden fence, soft lamplight spilling from a distant window, cool blue shadows, faint ground mist around her feet.
