(In the clubroom…)

Sayori: “Phew! Made it.”

Natsuki: “Oh! Hey, Sayori! How’s it going?”

Sayori: “Hey, Natsuki! I’m doing pretty good, thanks. Just had to rush here after my last club meeting ended.”

Natsuki: “Ah, I see. Well, glad you could make it. We were just about to start discussing the plans for the festival.”

Sayori: “Oh, perfect timing then! I’m excited to hear everyone’s ideas. The festival is always so much fun.”

Yuri: “Indeed, the festival is a wonderful opportunity for us to showcase our literature club’s work and attract new members. I’ve been brainstorming some ideas for a special poetry reading event.”

(Eventually, Monika finally arrives at the clubroom.)

Monika: (holding her full-term baby bump with her hand) “Sorry for being late, everyone! I had to meet with the student council to discuss some logistics for the festival.” (feeling sharp pain in her lower abdomen) “Ow…”

Sayori: “Monika, are you okay? You’re not in labor, are you?”

Monika: “Oh, don’t worry, Sayori. It’s just a little discomfort.” (feeling her pain grow more intense) “Ahh…I-I-I think it’s getting more intense…”

Natsuki: “Wait, Monika, are you sure you’re okay? We should probably call for help or something.”

Yuri: “I agree. It might be a good idea to contact the nurse or a teacher. We can’t take any risks with your health.”

Monika: (clenching her teeth) “I… I think you’re right-”

(All of a sudden, Monika’s water breaks.)

Monika: “…this shouldn’t be happening now…” (her contractions become so intense that she feels the urgent need to push) “Oh no, I can’t hold it any longer!"

(Monika lets out a scream of agony as she starts to push right there, right then.)

(Sayori and Natsuki immediately spring into action, trying to comfort Monika and help her through the situation.)

Sayori: “Stay calm, Monika! We’ll get through this together. Natsuki, try to get her into a comfortable position. Yuri, go find some towels.”

(As the chaos continues, Yuri quickly rushes out of the clubroom to find towels. Meanwhile, Sayori and Natsuki do their best to keep Monika calm and provide support.)

Natsuki: “Breathe, Monika, just breathe. We’re here for you.”

Sayori: “You’re doing great, Monika! Just focus on your breathing and try to stay relaxed.”

(Monika continues to push, her pain becoming even more intense. Finally, Yuri returns with a stack of towels and quickly sets them down.)

Yuri: “I got the towels! Here, let’s lay them down to make it more comfortable.”

(Sayori and Natsuki help Monika onto the towels, trying to make her as comfortable as possible.)

Monika: (gritting her teeth) “Th-thank you, everyone. I can’t believe this is happening… in the clubroom…”

Natsuki: “Don’t worry about that now, Monika. We’ll get through this together.”

(Eventually, Monika’s contractions start to intensify as she prepares for the last push.)

Monika: “I can feel it… It’s time…”

(Sayori, Natsuki, and Yuri stand by Monika’s side, providing all the support they can.)

Sayori: “You’re doing amazing, Monika! Just one more push!”

Natsuki: “Stay strong, Monika! We’re right here with you.”

Yuri: “Focus on your breathing, Monika. You can do this!”

(Monika gathers all her strength, pushing with all her might as she screams through the pain.)

Monika: “AHHHHHHH!!!”

(As Monika pushes with all her might, the sound of a baby’s cry fills the clubroom, followed by a wave of relief and happiness. Monika had just given birth to a baby girl.)
