MC: "Of course, Sayori. I'll see if I can reach her." *MC takes out their phone and dials Natsuki's number. After a few rings, Natsuki finally picks up.* Natsuki: "Hello?" MC: "Hey, Natsuki. We were just wondering where you are. We miss you at the clubroom." Natsuki: *sounding tired* "Oh, hey MC. Yeah, sorry about that. I've been really busy lately with work and stuff. I couldn't make it today." MC: "No problem, Natsuki. We understand. Is everything okay?" Natsuki: *sighs* "Yeah, it's just been really hectic lately. But everything's fine. Thanks for checking in on me." MC: "Alright, take care of yourself, Natsuki. We'll be here when you're ready to come back." Natsuki: "Thanks, MC. I'll see you soon." *MC hangs up the phone and looks back at the others.* MC: "Natsuki couldn't make it today. She's been busy with work, but she's alright. She'll be back when she can." Sayori: "Oh... I hope she's doing okay. Let's make sure to support her when she comes back." Monika: "Definitely. We'll be here for her. In the meantime, let's continue with our activities for today. I'm sure Natsuki would want us to have fun." Yuri: "Yes, you're right. Let's make the most of our time together." *The club members resume their activities, hoping that Natsuki will be able to join them again soon.*
