(In the clubroom…)

Monika: “Okay, now that everyone’s here, let’s begin the meeting!”

Sayori: “I’m so excited for this meeting to begin!”

Natsuki: “You’re always excited for everything, Sayori.” (rubbing her 7-month baby bump) “Aww, little Sakura! Calm down for Mommy, alright?”

Yuri: “It’s so exciting to see how you’re bonding with your unborn baby, Natsuki. Reminds me of back when I was pregnant with baby Violet.”

MC: “Wow, I didn’t know you were a mom, Yuri! How old is Violet now?”

Yuri: “She’s turning three next month. Time really does fly. Motherhood has been a wonderful experience.”

Monika: “That’s amazing, Yuri. I’m glad to hear that both you and Natsuki are enjoying motherhood. It must be such a rewarding journey.”

Natsuki: “Definitely, Monika. Despite the challenges, seeing Sakura grow every day brings me so much joy. Ooh…! Sakura! Please, Mommy needs her rest, so don’t kick so hard.”

Sayori: “Aww, looks like little Sakura is feeling energetic today! Maybe she’s just as excited for the meeting as you are, Natsuki.”

Natsuki: “You think so, Sayori? That would be cute. But I could use a moment of peace, you know? Being pregnant definitely has its ups and downs.”

MC: “I can only imagine, Natsuki. It must be quite the adventure going through all the changes and preparing for parenthood.”

Yuri: “Yes, it’s a unique experience for sure. But the love and care you feel for your child make it all worth it. And seeing them grow and develop is such a beautiful thing.”

Monika: “Absolutely, Yuri. Parenthood is a journey filled with both challenges and rewards. It’s incredible how it can bring us so much joy and fulfillment.”

Natsuki: “Oh, I completely agree. Despite the cravings, morning sickness, and all the discomfort, every moment spent with little Sakura makes it all worthwhile. I can’t wait to hold her in my arms.”

Sayori: “Natsuki, I’m sure you’re going to be an amazing mom. And you too, Yuri. Your love for Violet shines through whenever you talk about her.”

Yuri: “Thank you, Sayori. I try my best. Being a mom is a constant learning process, but it’s a role I cherish and love with all my heart.”

MC: “It’s truly admirable how you both handle motherhood with such grace and love. Your children are lucky to have you.”

Monika: “Indeed, they are. And remember, if any of you ever need advice or support, we’re all here for each other. That’s what being a club is all a-”

(Suddenly, Natsuki passes out and collapses onto the floor.)

(MC rushes to Natsuki’s side, checking her pulse.)

MC: “Natsuki! Are you okay? Someone call an ambulance!”

Yuri: “I’ll call for help right away!”

(Yuri quickly dials emergency services while Monika and Sayori gather around Natsuki, concerned.)

Monika: “Stay with us, Natsuki. Help is on the way.”

Sayori: “Natsuki, please be okay. We’re here for you.”

MC: “Come on, Natsuki, wake up.”

(Yuri finishes the call and joins the others, kneeling beside Natsuki.)

Yuri: “They said help is on the way. Let’s keep her comfortable until they arrive.”

Monika: “We’ll stay by your side, Natsuki. Just hold on.”

(A few minutes later, at the hospital…)
Doctor: “We’ve stabilized Natsuki for now. She’s currently undergoing some tests to determine the cause of her collapse. We’ll keep you updated on her condition.”

MC: “Thank you, doctor. Please do everything you can to help her.”

Yuri: “Is there anything we can do to support her?”

Doctor: “Right now, she needs rest and medical attention. It would be best if you all waited in the waiting room. We’ll let you know as soon as there’s more information.”

Monika: “Alright, thank you. Please take good care of her.”

(The group moves to the waiting room, anxiously awaiting news about Natsuki’s condition. They sit in silence, lost in their own thoughts and worries.)

Sayori: “I just hope Natsuki is going to be alright. She’s such a strong person, she’ll get through this.”

MC: “Yeah, she’s always been resilient. But seeing her collapse like that… it’s just so unexpected and worrying.”

Yuri: “We just have to stay positive and hope for the best. Natsuki deserves all the love and support right now.”

Monika: “I can’t help but feel guilty. If only we had noticed something was wrong earlier, maybe we could have prevented this.”

Sayori: “Monika, it’s not your fault. Sometimes these things happen without any warning. We’re all here for Natsuki, and that’s what matters.”

(Meanwhile, the doctor approaches the waiting room, getting the attention of the group.)

Doctor: “I good news and bad news on Natsuki’s condition. And Sakura’s condition as well.”

MC: “What’s the good news, doctor?”
