(In the school literature clubroom...) Monika: "Okay, that concludes today's meeting. You all had some amazing poems!" Yuri: "Thank you, Monika. Your feedback on my poem means a lot to me." Natsuki: (caressing her baby bump) "Yeah, whatever. I didn't even ask for feedback, so just keep your opinions to yourself." Monika: "Natsuki, be nice. We're all here to support and encourage each other's creativity." Sayori: "Monika's right! We should always be kind and supportive. That's what the literature club is all about." Natsuki: "Ugh...fine. But don't expect me to sugarcoat anything-" (feeling a strong kick from her unborn daughter) "OW, SHOOT!!! Sakura, stop it!" Monika: "Natsuki, are you okay? Is everything alright?" Natsuki: (rubbing her belly) "Yeah, Sakura's just been quite active lately. Seems like she's got some energy." Yuri: "It must be a wonderful feeling, Natsuki, to have your little one growing inside of you." Natsuki: (smiling softly) "Yeah, it's definitely a mix of emotions. Excitement, nervousness, but mostly just...love." Sayori: "Aww, Natsuki, that's so sweet! I'm sure you're going to be an amazing mom." Natsuki: (blushing) "Thanks, Sayori. I hope so." Monika: "Well, it's clear that your little bundle of joy is already making her presence known. What a precious connection." Yuri: "Indeed, it's a reminder of the preciousness of life and the beauty of new beginnings." Natsuki: (gently placing her hand on her belly) "Yeah, she definitely has a way of reminding me of that. I can't wait to meet her. Sorry for being so rude earlier. Guess it's just my pregnancy hormones getting to me." Monika: "No worries, Natsuki. We understand. Pregnancy can be a rollercoaster of emotions. We're here for you." Sayori: "Absolutely! And we'll get to experience the joy of meeting your daughter with you. It's going to be so exciting!" Natsuki: "Yeah, I'm starting to feel that excitement too. I just hope I'll be able to handle everything." Yuri: "You will, Natsuki. Parenting may have its challenges, but love and support go a long way in navigating them." Monika: "And we'll be here to offer advice and lend a helping hand whenever you need it. The literature club is like a family, after all." Natsuki: "Thank you, guys. Your support means a lot to me. I'm really grateful to have all of you." Sayori: "We're grateful to have you too, Natsuki. You bring such a unique perspective and creativity to our club." Yuri: "Indeed. Your poems always have a special spark to them, and I'm sure that creativity will carry over to your role as a mother." Natsuki: (blushing) "Geez, you guys are embarrassing me. But thank you. I'll do my best." Monika: "We have no doubt about that, Natsuki. You'll be an incredible mother, and we're excited to witness this new chapter of your life." Natsuki: (placing a hand on her belly) "I can't wait for that chapter to begin. And I'm glad I have all of you by my side." (That night, after the club meeting, Natsuki struggles to find a comfortable sleeping position due to her daughter's consistent kicking.)
