A girl with short pink hair and a uniform walks into a room. Two of her clubmates are waiting in the room already. One with long coral brown hair turns and says, "Hello Natsuki!" She replies, "Hi Monika." She then turns to the tall girl with long purple hair and says, "Hello Yuri."
A few minutes later another girl with short pink hair rushes in the room. "Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry I'm late!" she exclaims, panting.
"Sayori!" Monika says, smiling.
A boy walks in the room as well. "Hello everyone."
"MC!" Monika says. "I'm so glad everyone is here now. Time to write some poems! Everyone sit down."
Everyone does so as she passes out some papers.
A few minutes later, everyone is finished.
"Is everyone done?" Monika, the president of the club, asks. Everyone nods.
"Okay! Find a partner and discuss your poem with them. Remember to give constructive criticism, it's not a bad thing! Sayori, MC, would you like to be a three-group? We don't have an even number of people here, unfortunately!"
"Okay," MC says. Sayori nods excitedly. "You betcha!"
Natsuki turns to Yuri and says, "I guess that means we're a group."
Yuri nods. "Here, I'll sit next to you."
Natsuki blushes. "This doesn't mean I like you or anything! It's just Monika separating us into groups!" she says, embarrassed.
Yuri nods. "I know." She's heard this before. "So are you going to give me your poem so I can read it?" she says calmly.
"Oh, yeah." Natsuki hands Yuri her poem and begins to read hers. 'Ugh.. I hate this,' Natsuki thinks. 'She's better at writing than me. It's annoying!'
Yuri hands Natsuki's poem back to her. "Although it's nice, it's a bit short and you might want to make it a bit longer."
Natsuki blushes. "Nobody asked you! Anyway, about yours. It's all mysterious! Have you ever thought of making things clearer?" she says, annoyed. 
"I feel that the mystery contributes to the overall theme of the poem. But that's just my opinion," Yuri says, oblivious.
"I- uh-..." Natsuki says. "I guess."
"Okay, everyone!" Monika says. "That's the end of today's club meeting! Have a nice day!"
Natsuki stands up. "Oh. I have to go."
"Bye.." Yuri replies.

~Natsuki's POV~
I wonder if I should listen to Yuri... Wait, what am I thinking? What the hell?
~End of POV~
Natsuki mentally slaps herself. 'What am I even thinking?' she mutters.
