(In the school literature clubroom…)

Monika: “Keep pushing, Sayori! Keep pushing!”

Sayori: (straining, clutching her baby bump tightly) “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!”

Natsuki: (rushing over) “Sayori, are you okay? Do you need any help?”

Sayori: (gasping for breath) “It’s time! The baby is coming!”

Yuri: (calmly) “We should call an ambulance immedia-”

Monika: “No time, Yuri! Sayori’s contractions are very close together. We have to help her deliver the baby right here, right now.”

Natsuki: “Are you sure, Monika? None of us have any medical training.”

Monika: “We don’t need medical training, Natsuki. We just need to support Sayori and guide her through the process. It’ll be alright.”

Yuri: “But it’s a delicate situation. There could be complications.”

Sayori: (teary-eyed) “I trust all of you. Please, help me deliver my baby.”

Monika: “Okay, Sayori. We’ll do our best. Natsuki, grab some blankets and towels. Yuri, find a clean bowl and some warm water. And I’ll try to remember what I’ve seen in movies…”

Natsuki quickly gathers the necessary supplies while Yuri fills the bowl with warm water. Monika takes a deep breath, trying to recall what she knows about childbirth.

Monika: “Okay, Sayori. We need you to lie down on the blanket. We’ll make sure you’re as comfortable as possible.”

Sayori: (nodding) “Thank you, Monika.”

(With the help of Natsuki and Yuri, they carefully position Sayori on the makeshift bed. Monika sits at her side, ready to guide her through each contraction.)

Monika: “Okay, Sayori. Take deep breaths and try to relax. Natsuki, hand me a towel soaked in warm water. We’ll need to keep her comfortable.”

(Natsuki passes Monika a towel, and Monika gently places it on Sayori’s forehead, wiping away beads of sweat.)

Yuri: “Monika, remember to encourage Sayori and keep her focused. It’s important for her to feel supported.”

Monika: “Right, Yuri. Sayori, you’re doing great. Just keep breathing and take it one contraction at a time. We’re all here for you.”

(As the hours pass, the club members take turns supporting Sayori, offering her water and words of encouragement. Eventually, with their guidance, Sayori gives birth to a healthy baby girl she names Sachiko - and then, a baby boy she names Satori. Sayori, exhausted but filled with joy, holds her babies tenderly.)

Sayori: (whispering) “Thank you, everyone. I couldn’t have done it without all of you.”

Monika: “You did amazing, Sayori. We’re so proud of you.”

Natsuki: “Yeah, Sayori, you were so strong! Your little ones are lucky to have such a great mom.”

Yuri: “Congratulations, Sayori. It’s a beautiful moment to witness.”

(Sayori looks at her two precious newborns, tears of happiness streaming down her face.)

Sayori: “I love you both so much. You’ve brought so much light into my life.”

(Monika gently takes Sachiko and cradles her, while Yuri carefully holds Satori, amazed by their tiny features.)

Monika: “Welcome to the Literature Club, Sachiko and Satori. We promise to always be here for you and support you, just like we did for your mom.”

Natsuki: “You guys are going to have the coolest literature-filled childhood ever! We’ll make sure of it.”

Yuri: “There’s so much to explore in this world, and we can’t wait to share it with you both.”

(The club members exchange glances, their bond strengthened through this incredible experience. They know they will always be there for each other, both in literature and in life.)

{SEVEN YEARS LATER}

(At Sayori’s place, late at night…)

Sayori: “And that’s how you two entered my life.”

Sachiko: (excitedly) “Wow, Mom! That sounds like such an amazing and beautiful moment. I’m so glad I was born surrounded by such love and support.”

Satori: (smiling) “Yeah, Mom, it’s really special. I’m grateful to have you and the literature club as my family.”

Sayori: (teary-eyed) “I’m grateful too, my sweethearts. You and the club members have brought so much joy and happiness into my life. I can’t imagine a world without any of you. Now, goodnight my precious little ones.”
