(In the school literature clubroom…)

MC: “Looks like Monika still isn’t here. Hmm…it’s not like her to be so late.”

Yuri: “I hope everything is okay. Maybe we should try calling her to check on her?”

Sayori: “Yeah, that’s a good idea. I’ll give her a call and see if everything is alright.”

Natsuki: “I’ll go check outside the clubroom, just in case she’s on her way.”

MC: “Thanks, guys. Let’s make sure Monika is okay before we start our meeting.”

(As Sayori calls Monika, Natsuki heads outside the clubroom to look for her. A few minutes later, Natsuki comes back inside with a worried expression on her face.)

Natsuki: “She’s not outside and she didn’t answer her phone. I don’t know where she could be.”

Yuri: “This is really unlike Monika. I’m starting to get worried now.”

MC: “Let’s not panic just yet. Maybe she just got caught up in something and lost track of time. We’ll wait a little longer before we start to worry.”

(Meanwhile, at the hospital…)

Doctor: “Alright, Monika, change of gears. We need to prepare for an emergency delivery.”
