(As I entered the clubroom, I could hear Sayori and Natsuki discussing something - while Ayano, Himari, Kotonhoa, and Charloette were setting up different things, like an emerald green pool and other decorations. Strangely, Monika - our club president - wasn't there.) Kotonhoa: "Okay, that's everything. I think this will be great!" (I walked to see what they were doing.) Natsuki: "Oh! Hey, Yuri! Is everything okay?" Sayori: "We were just thinking of some ideas for our next club activity!" Yuri: "Ah, I see. What ideas do you have in mind?" Ayano: "We're thinking of having a pool party! We got this emerald green pool here to set up." Himari: "And we got some snacks and drinks ready too!" Charloette: "And some decorations to make it look festive." Yuri: "That sounds like a great idea! When are we planning to have this pool party?" Sayori: "We were thinking of having it this weekend! What do you think, Yuri?" Yuri: "That sounds perfect. I'll make sure to bring some snacks too." Natsuki: "Great! I can't wait to see you in a swimsuit, Yuri." (I blushed at Natsuki's comment.) Yuri: "Um, Natsuki, please don't tease me like that." Sayori: "Oh, come on, Yuri! Don't be shy. We're all friends here." Kotonhoa: "Yeah, it'll be fun! You'll see." (Hearing their encouragement, I couldn't help but smile.) Yuri: "Okay, I'll try to be a good sport about it." Charloette: "That's the spirit! We're gonna have so much fun!" (As everyone continued to chat and prepare for the pool party, I couldn't help but feel grateful to be part of such a wonderful club and have such supportive friends. Just then, we all heard a knock on the door.) Sayori: "I'll get it!" (Sayori went to the door and opened it, revealing Monika standing outside - but her belly was strangely swollen.) Monika: "Hey everyone, sorry I'm late." Sayori: "Monika! We were wondering where you were." Monika: "Sorry about that. I had some last-minute club business to take care of." Natsuki: "So, are you ready for the pool party this weekend?" Monika: "Pool party? What pool party?" Ayano: "We were just talking about having a pool party this weekend, Monika." Himari: "We already got everything prepared." Charloette: "And we invited other classmates too." Monika: "I'm sorry, but I didn't know anything about this- OW! Ow, ow, ow!" (As Monika spoke, she suddenly clutched her belly and winced in pain. I started to feel worried about her.) Yuri: "Monika, are you okay? You're clutching your belly." Monika: "I...I don't know. I've been feeling strange all day. It's like something is pushing against my stomach- AHH!" (I watched in shock as Monika doubled over in pain.) Monika: "T-This can't be happening! It's too early!"
