Today was a big day for you and the Literature Club. It marked the one-year anniversary of the day you joined, and Monika had planned something special to celebrate: a long road trip with just the five of you. The excitement was palpable as you all met up at Monika’s house, piling into her car.

She volunteered to drive, naturally taking charge as usual. Natsuki, always eager to show off her baking skills, had brought a batch of freshly made cupcakes for the road. Yuri sat quietly by the window, her gaze fixed on the scenery, a book resting on her lap. Sayori, true to her carefree nature, had already dozed off in the backseat, a peaceful smile on her face.

You were seated in the passenger seat next to Monika, who seemed both confident and focused, her hands resting firmly on the wheel. She glanced around at everyone, asking if they were ready. Once the chorus of affirmations (and one sleepy mumble from Sayori) came through, she smiled and hit the gas. The car rolled forward, leaving the driveway and heading off toward what promised to be an unforgettable adventure.

Little did you know, the chaos and surprises that lay ahead would make this trip one for the books.
