The drive back is more quiet than the first drive. Each girl is sleepy and they have another hour ahead of them.

"Can't believe we went to the top of the mountain, feels like ages ago already." Natsuki says.

"Indeed." Yuri says. "We also sat near a cliff." Yuri smiles at the memory.

"Ugh, I'm getting sick just thinking of that!" Natsuki holds her head.

"Don't forget the lake!" Monika says.

"Still... Sorry if I was acting weird..." Yuri's stomach aches with embarrasment.

Sayori's shakes her head. "Weird? It was fun!"

"Never thought I'd see the day you were comfortable enough to do something like that." Natsuki smirks. "It was pretty cool too!"

"If... If you say so." Yuri relaxes a little.

"Here's a little tip, if you take your friends on a camping trip, one of them would reveal their boyfriend." Monika wiggles her eyebrows.

Sayori pouts. "I see it was a mistake bringing up a boy. We're just friends!" She squeaks.

"Tall guy, brown and short-ish hair?" Monika asks

"What- how did you know!?" Sayori looks at Monika in shock.

"Oh I read your diary." Monika chuckles.

"I LEFT IT AT HOME THOUGH." Sayori shrieks.

"That... I was joking Sayori..." Monika smiles nervously.

"I... I know!" Sayori shrinks down. "I was joking too!" She looks around the other girls.

Natsuki snorts. "You have a diary?"

"No..." Sayori laughs nervously.

"Meh, I have one too." Natsuki shrugs.

"Me too." Yuri mumbles.

"Yeah so do I." Monika says.

Sayori facepalms.

"Anyways..." Monika says. "I knew I recognized that name, I knew that guy from a while ago. Somehow I never knew you two were friends."

"Childhood friends." Sayori says, proudly.

"Ah." Monika nods.

The girls continue their drive, Natsuki and Sayori both starting to fall asleep in the car and Yuri still reading her book. As they soon reach their hometown. Monika drops off Sayori at her place.

"Well, here you are Sayori." Monika gives a warm smile.

"Yeah..." Sayori nods sadly.

"What are ya gonna do when you get inside?" Natsuki asks.

"Sleep!" Sayori squeaks.

"As all of us will, I'm sure." Monika says, while smiling.

Sayori smiles back and hugs Monika and waves goodbye to the other two in the back seat. "Love you guys!" She yells as she hops away.

"We love you too!" Monika calls back. "One down, two to go." Monika stretches.

They head for Yuri's house next and as they reach it, Yuri prepares herself to say goodbye.

"Well... This was an amazing trip..." Yuri says, with a big smile.

Natsuku grabs and hugs Yuri. "See ya!" She says in a cheerful voice.

Yuri hugs back and waves to Monika.

"See you tomorrow Yuri." Monika waves back and they watch as Yuri enters her house.

"Ready Natsuki?" Monika asks.

"I guess." Natsuki responds.

They drive to Natsuki's place in silence, and as they reach her place they see a truck outside.

"Ugh... He's here..." Natsuki covers her eyes.

"Everything okay?" Monika asks.

"Yeah yeah." Natsuki exits the car.

Monika exits the car aswell and grabs Natsuki's arm and pulls her in for a hug.

Natsuki awkwardly hugs back.

"Be safe..." Monika whispers.

Natsuki looks at Monika in confusion. Does she know her living situation? Or is she just being a kind friend? Natsuki is too lazy to think too much into it. She hopes to avoid her dad and just head straight to bed. She waves to Monika and Monika waves back.

"Alright, one left to go." Monika drives herself to her place and she pulls into the driveway. "Hello awful life." She chuckles at her own joke before entering her place and heading to bed.

As they time passes, they all slowly fall asleep one by one, ready and eager for when they get to see eachother at school again the next day. Sayori has a whole lot to tell MC.
