(In the clubroom…)

Natsuki: “I had the weirdest pregnancy dream last night…”

Yuri: “Oh, really? What was it about?”

Natsuki: “Well, I dreamt that I was pregnant with…a cupcake.”

Sayori: “A cupcake?! That’s both strange and kind of cute!”

Monika: “I guess that makes you the mother of all cupcakes then, Natsuki.”

Natsuki: “Yeah, it was pretty bizarre. In the dream, I was baking cupcakes as usual, and suddenly, one of them started growing inside my belly!”

Yuri: “That’s certainly an interesting twist on pregnancy dreams.”

Sayori: “Did it eventually come out of your belly as a full-sized cupcake?”

Natsuki: “No, thankfully not. That would have been even stranger. It just stayed there, growing in size, and I could even feel it moving around.”

Monika: “Well, pregnancy dreams often represent our anxieties and expectations about the future. Maybe this dream is reflecting your love for baking and the creative process.”

Natsuki: “Hmm, I guess so. It was definitely weird, but I suppose it’s a good sign that I’m passionate about what I do.”

Yuri: “Dreams can be so fascinating, even when they’re bizarre like this one. Thank you for sharing, Natsuki.” (rubbing her baby bump) “Looks like little Violet enjoyed it, too! She’s kicking up a storm in my womb!”

Sayori: “Aw, that’s so sweet! It’s like your dream brought joy to little Violet.”

Natsuki: “Yeah, it’s pretty cute. I can’t wait to meet her.”

Monika: “It’s truly amazing how dreams can give us insights into our desires and emotions. It’s almost like a window into our subconscious.”

Yuri: “Indeed. Dreams have always fascinated me. They can be perplexing and meaningful at the same time.” (feeling another strong kick from little Violet) “Oh! Settle down, my sweet little girl! You don’t want mommy to have preterm labor pains, do you?”

Natsuki: “Yuri, are you alright?”

Yuri: “Yes, I’m fine, just a little surprised by her energetic kicks. It’s nothing to worry about, really.”

Sayori: “It’s so amazing how connected you are with Violet already, Yuri. She knows her mommy’s voice and is already responding to it!”

Monika: “It’s truly a beautiful bond you two have. You’ll make a wonderful mother, Yuri.”

Natsuki: “Yeah, it’s really heartwarming to see how excited you are about becoming a mom, Yuri. I’m glad we can all support each other through these unique experiences.”

Yuri: “Thank you, Natsuki. Your friendship means a lot to me. And I’m grateful to have such supportive club members as well.”

Sayori: “Of course, we’re like a family here, after all!”

Monika: “Absolutely. We’re all here for each other, through good times and even the weirdest pregnancy dreams.”

Natsuki: “Haha, yeah. This club really is something special. I’m thankful to have all of you.”

(They all share a warm smile, feeling the love and support that binds them together as friends and a club. But the next day…)

Natsuki: “Wait a second…where’s Yuri?”

Monika: “Hmm, she’s not here yet. That’s unusual.”

Sayori: “I hope everything’s alright. Maybe she just overslept or got caught up with something.”

Natsuki: “I tried calling her, but she’s not answering. I’m getting worried.”

Monika: “Well, let’s give her a little more time. Maybe she’ll show up soon.”

(A few minutes pass, and still no sign of Yuri.)

Sayori: “I really hope she’s okay. I’ll give her a call.”
