(Natsuki is pacing back and forth in her living room, biting her nails nervously. Her phone rings, but she ignores it, too lost in her own thoughts.) Natsuki: (muttering) "Come on, Sakura... I know I'm due any day now, but couldn't you have waited just a little longer?" (She takes a deep breath and tries to calm herself down. Natsuki's phone rings again, and this time she picks it up.) Natsuki: (anxious) "Hello?" Sayori: "Natsuki! We were so worried about you! Are you... okay?" Natsuki: (sighs) "Yeah, yeah, I'm okay. Just... Sakura decided it was time to make her grand entrance, that's all." Sayori: "What?! Why didn't you say anything? We've been waiting for you at the clubroom!" Natsuki: "Sorry, Sayori. It all happened so fast, and I didn't want to bother anyone. I thought I could handle it on my own." Monika (from behind Sayori): "Handle what? Is everything alright?" (Sayori quickly puts the phone on speaker mode, allowing everyone in the clubroom to hear the conversation.) Natsuki: "Well, Sakura decided to arrive earlier than expected. I'm at the hospital right now." Yuri: "Oh my goodness, Natsuki! Congratulations! Is everything going smoothly?" Natsuki: "Thanks, Yuri. Yeah, so far so good. It was a bit chaotic at first, but the doctors and nurses are taking care of us." Monika: "That's a relief. I'm glad you and Sakura are in good hands. We'll come visit as soon as we can, alright?" Natsuki: "Thanks, Monika. I appreciate it. And sorry for not letting you all know earlier." Sayori: "No worries, Natsuki. The most important thing is that you and Sakura are safe. Take care, okay?" Natsuki: "I will, Sayori. Thanks for understanding. I'll keep you updated on everything." (With the reassurance from her friends, Natsuki hangs up the phone and smiles, feeling grateful for their support.) Natsuki: "Looks like Sakura is already getting lots of love, even before she's born."
