Sayori: "Oh, Monika, are you feeling alright? Is the baby giving you trouble?" Monika: "No, it's just the constant weight and feeling a little off-balance. But enough about me, we need to find Natsuki. She couldn't have just vanished." Yuri: "You're right, Monika. Let's split up and search the school for her. We can't leave a club member behind, especially with the festival coming up." Sayori: "I'll check the classrooms upstairs. Natsuki might be reading manga somewhere." Yuri: "I'll search the library and see if she's hidden among the bookshelves." Monika: "I can check the cafeteria and music room. Maybe Natsuki took a break from club activities." (Each of them heads in their respective directions, calling out for Natsuki.) --- (Meanwhile, in the school courtyard...) Natsuki: (sitting alone on a bench, tears streaming down her face) Yuri: (walking by, noticing Natsuki) "Natsuki! There you are!" Natsuki: (sniffles) "Y-Yuri? Leave me alone." Yuri: (sits beside Natsuki, concerned) "Natsuki, what's wrong? We were all worried about you. Why did you run off like that?" Natsuki: (voice trembling) "I-I... I didn't want anyone to see me like this. I just... I've been dealing with some personal stuff, and it's been overwhelming." Yuri: (gentle tone) "Natsuki, we're all here for you. You can always talk to us and share your burdens." Natsuki: (sniffs) "I know... it's just hard sometimes." Yuri: "I understand, but isolating yourself won't make it any easier. We're a club, a family, and we support each other through thick and thin." Natsuki: (softly) "Yeah... I just...I didn't want to burden anyone." Yuri: "Natsuki, you're not a burden. We care about you, and your struggles are important to us. Please, let us help." Natsuki: (nods, wiping away her tears) "Okay... I'll try." --- (Back in the clubroom...) Monika: "There you are, Natsuki! We were so worried about you." Sayori: "Yeah, we were searching all over for you. Are you feeling any better now?" Natsuki: (smiling weakly) "Yeah, thanks to Yuri, I'm feeling a little better. She reminded me that I don't have to face things alone." Yuri: (blushing) "I'm glad I could help, Natsuki." Monika: "Well, I'm relieved you're back. We should all sit down and discuss the festival preparations. We still have a lot to do." (The club members gather around, ready to tackle their tasks together, supporting each other every step of the way.)
