(In the clubroom...) Monika: (breastfeeding her newborn daughter) "There, there, little Minika. Drink up." Sayori: (wondering what to write a poem about) "Hmm...what should I write about..." Natsuki: "Monika, baby Minika looks adorable!" Monika: (smiling) "Thank you, Natsuki, Yuri. She's my little bundle of joy." Sayori: (suddenly inspired) "I know what I want to write about! I'll compose a poem about the beauty of motherhood and the unconditional love between a parent and child." Natsuki: "That sounds really sweet, Sayori. I'm sure it'll turn out great." (It takes a while for Monika, Sayori, and Natsuki to realize one of their members hasn't shown up yet - but not MC, as he's recently moved to another city and is now attending another club.) Sayori: "
CHATBOT
Hey, where's Yuri? She's usually here by now." Monika: "You're right. She's never late. I hope everything is alright with her." Natsuki: "Should we give her a call or something? Maybe she forgot or got caught up with something." Monika: "Yeah, let me try reaching her." (Monika takes out her phone and dials Yuri's number. After a few rings, it goes to voicemail.) Monika: "Hmm, she's not answering. I'll leave her a message." (Monika leaves a short message, expressing their concern and asking Yuri to get in touch as soon as possible. The others exchange worried glances.) Sayori: "I hope she's okay. It's not like Yuri to just not show up or ignore our calls." Natsuki: "Yeah, something must be wrong. We should probably go to her house and check on her." Monika: "I don't want to invade her privacy, but you're right. If she's not responding, it's better to make sure she's okay." (The three girls quickly gather their things and head to Yuri's house. They knock on the door, but there's no answer.) Natsuki: "Maybe she's not home. Should we try her parents' place or something?" Monika: "Let's try her phone again just in case." (They try calling Yuri once again, but it goes straight to voicemail. They exchange worried glances once more.) Sayori: "We can't just leave without knowing if Yuri's alright. Is there any way we can get inside?" Natsuki: "I know Yuri keeps a spare key hidden somewhere outside her house. She once told me in case she ever locked herself out." Monika: "That might be our best option right now. Let's search for it carefully." (The girls search around the porch, bushes, and any potential hiding spots. After a few minutes, Natsuki finds the spare key under a potted plant.) Natsuki: "Found it! Let's hope this works." (They cautiously enter Yuri's house, calling out her name as they explore each room. The house is eerily quiet and there are no signs of Yuri.) Monika: "Yuri? Are you here? It's us, Monika, Sayori, and Natsuki." (They reach Yuri's room, and to their relief, they find her sitting on the floor, lost in thought.) Sayori: "Yuri, thank goodness! We were so worried about you. Is everything okay?" Yuri: (startled) "Oh...I'm sorry. I didn't hear you come in. I'm... I'm fine. Just didn't feel like coming to the club today." Natsuki: "But Yuri, you never miss a club meeting. We were really worried about you." Yuri: (looking down) "I appreciate your concern. I've just been feeling a bit overwhelmed lately... It's nothing, really." Monika: "Yuri, if something is bothering you, you can always talk to us. We're here for each other, remember?" (Yuri hesitates for a moment, then finally opens up about her struggles and the difficulty she's been facing recently.) Yuri: "I've been dealing with some personal issues and it's been taking a toll on me. I didn't want to burden anyone with it." Sayori: "Yuri, we're friends. We want to help and support you no matter what. You don't have to go through this alone." Natsuki: "Yeah, Yuri. We care about you, and we want you to know that we're here for you. You can always lean on us." (Yuri's eyes well up with tears as she realizes she doesn't have to face her problems alone.) Yuri: "Thank you... It means a lot to me. I'm sorry for worrying you all." Monika: "Don't apologize, Yuri. We're just glad we found you and that you're safe. You're not alone in this." (The girls gather around Yuri, offering comfort and reassurance. They know that their friendship and support can help her navigate through her struggles.)
