Natsuki: "That's a good idea, Sayori. Let's see if everything is okay with her." (Sayori takes out her phone and dials Monika's number. After a few moments, Monika picks up.) Monika: "Hello? Sayori, is that you?" Sayori: "Hey, Monika! We were wondering where you were. Are you okay?" Monika: "Oh, sorry. I lost track of time. I'm stuck in traffic right now. It's moving so slow." Yuri: "Traffic? That doesn't sound good. How long do you think it will take?" Monika: "I'm not sure, Yuri. It might take another half an hour before I can make it." Natsuki: "Ugh, that's so annoying! We were all excited for today's club meeting." Monika: "I'm really sorry, everyone. I'll try my best to get there as soon as I can. Maybe you can start without me?" Sayori: "No way, Monika! We're a team, remember? We'll wait for you. Just let us know when you're closer." Monika: "Thank you, Sayori. That means a lot to me. I'll update you guys when I'm making progress. Hang tight!" Natsuki: "Fine, but you owe us some cupcakes when you finally get here, Monika!" Monika: "Deal, Natsuki! See you all soon!" (Sayori hangs up the phone.) Sayori: "Monika's stuck in traffic, but she'll join us as soon as she can. We can start reading poems in the meantime. Who wants to go first?"
