(In the school literature clubroom…)

Monika: “Alright, there we go! The clubroom’s all ready for today’s meeting.”

Sayori: “Yay, I can’t wait to discuss our latest book pick! I loved reading it.”

Natsuki: “Ugh, I thought it was super boring. I couldn’t even finish it.”

Yuri: “I have to disagree, I found the book to be quite engaging. It really drew me in.”

Monika: “Well, everyone is entitled to their own opinions. That’s what makes book discussions so interesting!”

Sayori: “Let’s get started on the meeting agenda, shall we?”

Monika: “Sounds good. Let’s dive into our thoughts and opinions on the book and see where our discussion takes us.”

Natsuki: “Fine, I’ll try to be more open-minded this time. But hopefully it doesn’t take too long. I’m 7 months pregnant, and Sakura’s REALLY eager to meet her mom.”

Yuri: “Congratulations, Natsuki! That’s so exciting. I’m sure Sakura will grow up to love books just like her mom.”

Sayori: “I can’t wait to read stories to Sakura when she’s born. It’s going to be so much fun!”

Monika: “I’m so happy for you, Natsuki. And I’m sure Sakura will have the best literature-loving parents to guide her. Now, let’s start our discussion and see where it takes us.”

(The literature club members began discussing the book, sharing their thoughts and opinions while enjoying each other’s company and the love for literature that brought them together. However, towards the end of the meeting, their conversation is suddenly interrupted after Natsuki suddenly clutches her stomach in pain.)

Natsuki: “O-ouch! Oh, gosh, it feels like a contraction. I think Sakura might be on her way!”

Monika: “Oh my goodness, Natsuki! Let’s get you to the hospital right away. Sayori, Yuri, let’s get in the car.”

Sayori: “Don’t worry, Natsuki. We’re all here for you. Let’s get you to the hospital safely.”

Yuri: “Just breathe, Natsuki. Everything is going to be okay. We’ll make sure you and Sakura are taken care of.”

(The girls start to rush Natsuki to the car, all while her contractions become more intense.)

Natsuki: “Oh, it hurts so much…I just hope my water doesn’t break before we get to the hospital!”

Monika: “Hang in there, Natsuki. We’re almost there. Just breathe and try to stay calm.”

Sayori: “We’re going to get you there safely, Natsuki. Just focus on staying as relaxed as you can.”

Yuri: “We’re all here for you, Natsuki. We’ll make sure you and Sakura are both safe and sound.”

(The girls quickly get Natsuki into the car and start rushing her to the hospital.)

Natsuki: “OWW!!! The contractions are getting closer together! I think Sakura is definitely on her way! I-I don’t know if I can make it much longer…”

Monika: “Hang in there, Natsuki. We’re almost at the hospital. Just a few more minutes and we’ll have you in the hands of the doctors.”

Sayori: “Just keep breathing and try to stay as calm as possible, Natsuki. We’re all here for you.”

Yuri: “We’re almost there, Natsuki. Just a little while longer and you’ll be able to hold your precious Sakura in your arms.”

(Natsuki continues to endure the intense pain of her contractions as the hospital comes into view.)

Natsuki: “I-I can do this. I have to stay strong for Sakura…”

Monika: “You’re doing great, Natsuki. We’re pulling into the hospital now. Hang in there, we’ll get you inside and taken care of.”

Sayori: “We’re here for you every step of the way, Natsuki. You’re not alone in this.”

Yuri: “We’re so close, Natsuki. Just a little bit longer and you’ll be able to meet your beautiful baby g-”

Natsuki: “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!”

(The car screeches to a halt as Natsuki lets out a scream of pain, her water breaking just before they arrive at the hospital.)

Natsuki: “
