(In the school literature clubroom…)

Monika: “Okay, that’s everything set up for the club meeting today!”

Sayori: “I can’t wait to share my new poem with everyone!”

Natsuki: “Yeah, yeah, we get it, you’re the best poet in the club.”

Yuri: “Let’s not start arguing now. We should focus on supporting each other’s creativity.”

Monika: “Exactly, Yuri. We’re all here to improve our writing skills and have a good time. Let’s try to make today’s meeting positive and productive.”

Sayori: “I think it’s gonna be great! I’m feeling really inspired lately.”

Monika: “That’s wonderful to hear, Sayori. I’m glad the club is helping you with your writing.”

Natsuki: “I still think my baking is more impressive than your poems.”

Yuri: “Let’s not compare ourselves like that. We all have our own talents.”

Monika: “Let’s take a deep breath and focus on helping each other improve. We’re all here to support each other, remember?”

Sayori: “Yes, Monika. I agree. Let’s have a great meeting today!”

Natsuki: “Ugh…sorry, everyone. I feel like a beached whale with this baby bump.”

Yuri: “Don’t apologize, Natsuki. We understand that you’re going through a lot right now. We’re here to support you too.”

Monika: “Yes, Natsuki. We’re all in this together. Let’s have a productive meeting and encourage each other’s creativity, no matter what we’re going through.”

Sayori: “I’m sure we’ll all feel better after sharing our writing and spending time together. Let’s make the most of it!”

(They all settle down and begin the club meeting, sharing their poems and feedback with one another, creating a supportive and positive atmosphere in the clubroom.)

Natsuki: “OOF!!! Ow! Sorry guys, Sakura’s kicking up a storm in there.”

Yuri: “It’s alright, Natsuki. We understand. Just focus on taking care of yourself.”

Monika: “Yes, Natsuki. Your health and well-being are the most important thing right now. We’re here to support you no matter what.”

Sayori: “And remember, we’re all here for you, Natsuki. We’ll make sure you’re comfortable and taken care of during our meetings.”

Natsuki: “Thank you, guys. I really appreciate your understanding and support. I’m grateful to have friends like you in the club- AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!”

(Suddenly, Natsuki winces in pain as she holds her stomach.)

Monika: “Natsuki, are you alright?”

Natsuki: “I…I think it’s time. Sakura’s ready to make her grand entrance.”

Yuri: “Oh my goodness, Natsuki! Let’s get you to the nurse’s office right away!”

Sayori: “I’ll go get help! Hang in there, Natsuki!”

(The girls quickly spring into action, helping Natsuki to the nurse’s office where she can receive proper medical attention.)

Natsuki: “The contractions are getting stronger…I don’t think I can get to the hospital in time…”

Monika: “Don’t worry, Natsuki. We’ll call an ambulance and make sure you and Sakura are safe and taken care of.”

Yuri: “Stay calm, Natsuki. We’re here for you every step of the way.”

Sayori: “You’re going to be okay, Natsuki. Just breathe and try to relax.”

(Natsuki nods, tears in her eyes as she tries to stay calm through the pain.)

Monika: “The ambulance is on its way, Natsuki. Just hold on a little longer.”

Yuri: “We’ll stay with you and make sure you’re okay until help arrives.”

Sayori: “You’re so strong, Natsuki. We’re all here for you.”

(Natsuki squeezes their hands tightly, grateful for their support and encouragement as she prepares to bring her daughter into the world. All of a sudden, she lets out an ear-splitting cry of pain as her waters break and she goes into labor. The girls stay by her side, offering words of comfort and reassurance as they wait for the ambulance to arrive. However, the ambulance doesn’t
