Sayori: "We were just discussing what games and activities we want to have at our summer club festival!" Ayano: "Yeah! We want to make sure it's super fun for everyone." Himari: "I'm thinking we can have a water balloon toss! And maybe even a dunk tank!" Charlotte: "And I'm planning on making some yummy summer treats, like popsicles and lemonade." Kotonhoa: "And I've set up a little pool in the corner for anyone who wants to cool off." Natsuki: "What about you, Yuri? Do you have any ideas for the festival?" (I paused, trying to think of something creative.) Yuri: "Well, I was thinking we could have a book swap! Everyone could bring a book they've enjoyed reading and exchange it with someone else." Sayori: "That's a great idea, Yuri! I love reading in the summer!" Natsuki: "Yeah, and we could even have a reading nook set up for anyone who wants to take a break from all the activity." Himari: "I love it! This festival is going to be so much fun!" (As we continued to plan, I couldn't help but wonder where Monika was. She was usually so involved in the club activities. Suddenly, Sayori's phone rang.) Sayori: "Oh, it's Monika! Hello?" (Sayori listened intently for a moment before turning to us, a worried expression on her face.) Sayori: "Monika won't be able to make it to the festival. She's really sick and had to go to the hospital." (We all gasped in shock and concern.) Natsuki: "Oh no! Is she going to be okay?" Sayori: "The doctors say she will be, but she needs to take some time to rest and recover." Kotonhoa: "We should all send her some get well soon messages." Ayano: "And maybe we could make her a card and send her some flowers or something." Charlotte: "I'll run to the flower shop and pick some out!" (I felt a lump form in my throat as I realized how much Monika meant to us all. She was more than just our club president - she was our friend. And we were going to do everything we could to make sure she felt loved and supported.)
