Another day of the club.

Natsuki seems anxious this time, despite the fact that she'd been kind of sassy and demanding towards everyone. Now she could barely stay in her seat- perched up behind a desk reading manga, hands fidgeting.

You walk over to her slowly, smiling. "Hey Natsuki," you say once again. She suddenly looks up, but strangely enough, not seeming confused or irritated.

"Excited for the festival tomorrow?"

"Well, yeah. That, and... we're getting a new member!"

A new member?

"Who?"

You look around in suspense, only seeing Yuri. Where was Monika?

But more importantly...

Where was Sayori?

"You know that one girl that sat at my table today... and yesterday? Yeah, so her name is Aoi. I know... nothing to really be excited about. But.. still!"

She was joining the club?

Deciding to change the subject, you ask about Sayori. You knew that she didn't walk with you to school today, but you figured she just slept in and would get a tardy.

"Oh, Sayori? I haven't seen her at all today... Monika. She's here though. Monika probably just... 'didn't hear the bell.' Makes no sense. I think, personally, that she's hiding something. Like a secret boyfriend."

You squint.

"Like, who 'doesn't hear the bell?' Man, you're president of a club... plus, she did some other shady stuff, like-"

"Haha, sorry guys! I was kinda late.. again..." Monika says, with a slightly-embarrassed face. You look at her, then at Natsuki, then back at her. "Heh..." you whisper awkwardly.

"That's fine, Monika. We're all mature here... well, most of us," Yuri says, glancing at Natsuki. Throwin' shade.

Monika squints slightly. "Uhh... let's not be rude, Yuri. I understand you two might not get along; but let's try to remain peaceful. For Say-... n-nevermind."

Your eyes widen. Did she really just... was she about to say Sayori?

As if on cue, our "new member" walks in. Perfect timing.

"Uh, h-hi everyone! Wait, is this all? Where's... that one girl," she says, looking at all of us.

"She's... home," you mumble.

"Oh. Well... hi!" Aoi repeats, grinning first at Natsuki, then Monika, and finally me. Not even bothering to look at Yuri.

Aoi was tall- she had curves, similar to Yuri, but was a little bit shorter. She had super-long black straight hair and black glasses.

Black eyes.

No, not "got-beat-up-on-the-side-of-the-road" black eyes- her irises were literally black. But you guess that isn't too weird, since Yuri and Natsuki had purple and pink eyes- respectively.

"So uh, what do I do."

   Everyone stares at each other in an awkward, deafening silence.
