Art style: Cyberpunk.
Alex is in his minimalist apartment at night. He stands before a mirror. He holds the single cracked lens in his palm. His reflection in the mirror shows him smiling and confident (the filtered self). But his actual face, which we see, is tired and full of doubt.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Cyberpunk" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Cyberpunk". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Cyberpunk" idiom, not in any other medium.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Alex: A man in his late 20s, with thoughtful eyes and a slightly athletic build. He wears simple, modern, casual clothing in muted tones (greys, blues). Initially, his expression is one of placid contentment, which slowly transforms into confusion, anxiety, and finally, quiet determination.
