INT. MAYA'S APARTMENT, JAKARTA — LATE MORNING
Soft window light. @maya (20s, linen shirt) sits at the dining table, phone held at selfie distance. She talks to it like it's a friend.
MAYA

Every Sunday I’d just stand at the fridge like… okay.
CAMERA: handheld selfie framing, slight natural sway, no cuts.
CUT TO:
INT. KITCHEN — CONTINUOUS
She calls her mom. The answer is always ayam bakar.
