Sayori: "I'm not sure, Monika. Maybe MC got held up with something after class. You know how sometimes he gets caught up helping other students or talking to teachers." Natsuki: "Or maybe he's just late because he overslept in the library again. Wouldn't be the first time. That guy seriously needs to get a better handle on his schedule." Yuri: "Could it be possible that MC has forgotten about our meeting today? Although, that seems unlikely given how much he enjoys our literature club discussions." Monika: "Hmm, he's usually very punctual. I hope everything is alright. Let me try texting him and see if he can give us an update. In the meantime, why don't we start by sharing some of the poems we've been working on? That way, when MC arrives, we can all share our thoughts together." *Monika pulls out her phone and sends a quick message to MC to check on his whereabouts, hoping for a prompt response.*
