Chasing the Red Kite

See the scenes
  1. Scene 1
    A grassy backyard with a plain lawn and a weathered old house rising behind it, bathed in warm golden afternoon light under a semi-clear sky.
    Maya runs across the grass laughing, holding the string of her red kite as it dances overhead, while Toby bounds along beside her with ears flapping.
  2. Scene 2
    The same grassy backyard, golden light warming the lawn and the old house behind it.
    A gust yanks the string from Maya's fingers and the red kite tumbles upward, spinning away toward the old house as Maya gasps and reaches after it in vain.
  3. Scene 3
    The grassy backyard with the weathered old house looming behind, warm golden light catching its rooftop.
    The red kite drifts up and settles flat against the old house's rooftop shingles as Maya and Toby stare upward, then dash side by side toward the house's door.
  4. Scene 4
    A cozy wooden staircase inside the old house, warm golden light spilling through a small landing window.
    Maya races up the wooden stairs two at a time with Toby scrambling close behind, both climbing eagerly toward the top landing.
  5. Scene 5
    The top of the cozy wooden staircase, golden light glowing through the landing window near a small door to the roof.
    Maya pushes open the small roof door, and she and Toby squeeze through into the bright golden air just as the wind begins to stir.
  6. Scene 6
    The gently sloped rooftop of weathered shingles atop the old house, warm golden light glowing across the wide sky and distant treetops.
    Maya picks up the red kite — reach the roof just before the wind carries red-kite away again.
  7. Scene 7
    The rooftop of the old house, golden afternoon light spreading over the wide sky as gentle clouds drift past.
    Maya laughs with relief and lifts the red kite high, letting it catch the breeze and flutter safely above the rooftop while Toby barks happily beside her.
  8. Scene 8
    The backyard seen wide from outside, no people in frame.
    No people or characters are visible. The backyard is seen whole in the open air: reach the roof just before the wind carries it away again
