MC: *phone ringing* Come on, Natsuki, pick up... Natsuki: *picks up* Hello? MC: Natsuki, hey! It's MC. We realized you weren't here and wanted to check if everything's okay. Are you alright? Natsuki: Oh, MC! Yeah, I'm sorry, I couldn't make it today. Some unexpected family stuff came up. MC: Oh, I see. Is everything alright? Do you need any help? Natsuki: No, it's nothing major, really. Just some stuff I need to take care of. But thanks for asking, MC. Monika: Is everything okay, Natsuki? We were getting a little worried. Natsuki: Yeah, everything's fine, Monika. Sorry for making you all worry. I'll be back with you all at the next club meeting, I promise. Sayori: We'll miss you, Natsuki. Take care of yourself and let us know if you need anything, okay? Natsuki: Thanks, Sayori. I really appreciate it. I'll see you all soon. MC: Take care, Natsuki. We'll be waiting for you. Just remember, we're here for you if you ever need anything. Natsuki: Thanks, MC. I'll keep that in mind. Bye, everyone. (MC hangs up the phone.) Yuri: I'm glad she's okay, but I hope things settle down for her soon. We miss her and baby Sakura. Monika: Agreed, Yuri. Let's make sure to give her all the support she needs when she's back. She's part of our club family, after all. Sayori: Absolutely. We'll be here for her. Until then, let's make the most of our club time together. (MC, Monika, Yuri, and Sayori continue their club activities, keeping Natsuki in their thoughts.)
