(In the clubroom...) Monika: "She hasn't shown up yet..." Natsuki: (already fuming) "GAH! When is she going to show up?!" Sayori: (entering the clubroom) "What's gotten Natsuki so peeved? Who are you two waiting for?" Monika: "We're waiting for Yuri. She's usually punctual, but today she's late." Natsuki: "It's frustrating! Why can't she just be on time for once?" Sayori: "Hmm, I hope she's alright. Maybe something came up?" Monika: "That's what I'm worried about too. Yuri is usually responsible and reliable." Natsuki: "Well, I don't care! She should have let us know if she couldn't make it on time." Sayori: "Natsuki, let's try to be understanding. We don't know what might have happened." Monika: "You're right, Sayori. We should give Yuri the benefit of the doubt. But let's also make sure to remind her about communication." Natsuki: "Fine, but I'm still annoyed." (Just then, Monika gets a phone call - but not from Yuri or anyone she knows.) Monika: (confused) "Huh? Who could be calling me at a time like this?" (She answers the phone.) Monika: "Hello?" Unknown Caller: (slightly sad) "Is this Monika from the literature club?" Monika: "Um, yes. Who is this?" Unknown Caller: "This is Yuri's mother." Monika: (surprised) "Yuri's mother? Is Yuri okay?" Yuri's Mother: (sighs) "I'm afraid Yuri has...has..." (Yuri's mother starts crying.)
