Host Me!
Chapter 19: Farewell

Chapter 19: Farewell

Months passed by.

Everyone was able to successfully keep earning money and slowly pay off their debts.

The police were able to catch the person who delivered the anthrax.

He informed the police on who hired him, thus adding more charges and jail time to Mr. x the prisoner.

Nothing major happened to the group during that time.

The season slowly changed and it was now winter.

Pretty boy, Motoki, and Rinji were able to pay off their debts. They had been able to save up some money while still working as a host and looking for a new job.

The three of them had decided to leave the club now that they had paid off the debt.

So a farewell party was going to be hosted for them in the club with all the hosts and hostesses. Along with a few guests of those people who would be allowed to invite.

The club would not be open for that day in order to host the party.

Some of the special guests invited to the party where Misa and Kana.

The party was starting soon, Yuuto and the other host had spent over an hour setting up the place and making sure it was all set for the party.

Yuuto had been in charge of making sure everything was getting done correctly.

The reason why? He was now rank #1 in the host rankings. He was earning far more than when he started as a host but even though there was still a good amount of debt to pay off, it was just going away faster now.

They had locked up the three honored guests all in one of their rooms, where they had to wait until the preparations were ready.

Yuuto did one more check to see if everything was ready and if everyone had arrived to start the party.

Upon confirming everything was in order, he left the main room and started walking to the room with Pretty boy, Motoki, and Rinji, to let them out and escort them to the main room where the party would start.

Reaching the door to the room, he knocked before opening it.

“Everyone is waiting on you guys,” said Yuuto to the three in the room.

“Man, this is more nerve-wracking then working as a host,” said Rinji.

“Just man up and push through.” said Pretty boy.

“I hope there is some good food at the party,” said Motoki nervously.

The TV they had been watching was turned off and they all exited the room and walked to the main club room.

When they entered the room, everyone who had gathered under a banner that had farewell written on it had party poppers which they used while shouting, “Good Job!” together.

The old man walked forward a few steps from the crowd and spoke.

“Now that the honored guest had arrived we can start the party. Bring out the drinks for the toast”.

Waiters brought out trays full of glasses filled with wine and handed them out to all the guests.

When everyone had a drink, the old man raised his glass and said, “Here's to some fine young men and may they be successful in the new jobs that they have chosen to pursue.”

The crowd of people gave a shout of agreement and everyone took a drink.

A few more toast was given when they were finished the old man spoke up.

“Well with that the party is now officially started, feel free to mingle and have fun for now. Later there will be a few contests and other fun things to do. We will announce them when it's time for the events to happen. So until then let's all have fun.”

Yuuto tried to walk over to the three to congratulate his close friends but the large crowd had already surrounded them.

Yuuto noticed Dr. Doi sitting at the bar and drinking alone he decided to go over and greet him.

“Hello, Dr. Doi are you having fun?” Yuuto asked.

“Oh if it isn't Yuuto haven't seen you in a while. Last time was the anthrax scare wasn't it?” questioned Dr. Doi.

“So what are you doing here all alone?” asked Yuuto.

“I was thinking about the last experiment I did and was wondering if I had cut open the specimen right and then after inspecting its innards if everything was put back in the right places when I sewed it back up. Well I guess since it's not dead yet that I was able to cure it,” replied Dr. Doi who went back to ignoring Yuuto, and stared off into the distance thinking of whatever mad scientist think of.

“Okay nice talking to you too,” said Yuuto as he turned around and walked away.

The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.

After looking around the room, he found Niko who was talking to Misa and Kana. He walked over to them.

“Oh no look what the cat dragged in,” joked Misa as she noticed Yuuto near them.

Yuuto smiled at her and shot back at her by saying “Well your tongue is as sharp as ever Misa.”

“So when are you going to be having your own farewell party?” asked Kana.

“Not for some time. I still have a large amount to pay off, but it will be paid off. I am grateful for the opportunity that was given to me. Now I just have to stay at the #1 spot and I will be able to pay it off faster,” Yuuto said with determination.

“Oh someone is pleading with us to keep coming to him as your client huh. You're really lusting after us that much? You shouldn't do that in front of Niko you never know what might happen,” said Misa with a mischievous smile on her face.

Yuuto quickly looked over at Niko and before he could say anything he got kicked in the shin.

She gave off a Hmph looking at him. Her eyes staring daggers into him.

“Why do you always have to do that? Anyways you know I have to get a lot of people to have me as their host in order to pay off the debt. You know that you're the only one for me Niko.” said Yuuto.

This caused Niko to blush and kick Yuuto in the shin again but lighter this time.

“Don't say such things in front of others. Jeez that's so embarrassing, erase that from your memory you two,” said Niko.

“Nope I'm saving it in my memory to always keep,” replied Misa.

They continued to talk and joke around for a few hours until the old man announced that one of the events would start soon.

It turned out that the event was a couple's karaoke singing contest.

Niko urged Yuuto to join the contest with her he tried to refuse her but she insisted quite strongly so he was forced to join the contest or his life would be in danger.

The reason he didn't want to sing was that he had a dark secret about singing. It was very dark and very much a secret.

The contest started. There were many applauses after each couple finished their song.

When it was Yuuto and Niko's turn to sing, Niko picked a love song that was ranked as an overall easy song to sing.

After they had finished singing the whole crowd was stunned to silence, they all had awkward expressions frozen on their faces.

Yes, he was so good at singing that people would freeze from how awesome he was.

After them, the other couples finished singing each getting applause for some reason.

When it came for everyone to vote the singers somehow the ranking was wrong because Yuuto and Niko were in dead last.

“Sorry man but you suck at singing,” said Pretty boy after he saw the confusion on Yuuto's face.

“What I thought I was a good singer every time I sang for someone, they would always be stunned from how great it was,” said Yuuto.

“No I can assure you it wasn't from how good you were,” said Motoki while laughing between bites of food.

“You're hopeless, but I guess that's one of your charms,” said Niko with a weird smile on her face.

“Uh yeah, Thanks for the compliment I guess,” said the now embarrassed Yuuto.

They spent a few more hours hanging out until the old man announced the next event.

“Everyone, the three guests of honor will be over here. You can get your picture taken with them if you want.”

Yuuto walked over to them and got into the line that was forming and then got his picture taken with all three of them.

After everyone finished taking pictures, the next even started.

The tables and chairs were pushed to the side making for a larger dance floor for everyone.

Yuuto was dragged out onto the makeshift dance floor by Misa who danced with him to several upbeat songs. Before going back to the table and seats to take a rest.

Slow music came on when Yuuto had only been sitting for a few seconds and he was again forced onto the dance floor by Niko.

Before he could complain about needing some rest Niko interrupted, “This music is just right for couple dancing. Let's go.”

He followed her and began to do a slow waltz with her. While dancing he noticed Kana was dancing with Pretty boy. Motoki and Rinji where both dancing with people he didn't know.

Yuuto’s face was forcefully turned back to Niko.

“Keep your focus on me for the dance won't you?” demanded Niko.

Yuuto smiled at her and kissed her on the lips instantly silencing the shy Niko for just a moment.

“Wh-what do you think you're doing in front of others.” stuttered Niko.

“Just showing my love for you,” replied Yuuto confidently as he drew her closer to him.

“You dummy,” Niko said in a low mutter resting her head on his shoulder as they slowly danced.

A few hours later, the party was nearing its end.

“Everyone thanks for joining us for this party. All that is left are the finale farewell speeches and advice given to the new hosts by the ones leaving and then I will also give some advice to the ones leaving.” said the old man.

After everyone had given their final good luck and goodbye speeches, Pretty boy picked up the microphone.

“My advice to all you new hosts who will be taking over for us hosts that leave is this. Those who succeed at being a host are those who have a clear set goal. Figure out what yours is and work towards it with all your might.” said Pretty boy and passed the microphone to Motoki.

“Mine is in order to succeed, you need to get a lot of sleep and eat lots of good food. You will also need to keep in good shape so don't slack off,” said Motoki and he passed the microphone to Rinji.

“My advice is you need to make some friends that you can enjoy your time off with, it will make your life a lot more fun and easier to get from day today,” Rinji spoke quickly and then handed the microphone back to the old man.

“The advice I have for the three of you is quite simple. Don't let yourselves get caught by any vices that would see you back here in debt. You have a second chance debt free now don't waste it. Now that concludes the main party. There is an after-party that will last until the morning for those who wish to stay otherwise you're all allowed to go or stay as you please,” said the old man.

Yuuto walked over to Niko who was saying goodbye to Misa and Kana as they both decided to leave as it was getting late and they had to work in the morning.

After they left along with a large majority of the people who had come to the farewell party Yuuto questioned Niko if she wanted to stay for the after party or if she was going return to her room.

“How about we go to my place and watch a movie?' she asked.

“Sure, that sounds great,” Yuuto agreed.

Yuuto shook the three stooges’ hands and wished them luck as he and Niko left the room.

Yuuto followed Niko to her small apartment room and when they entered, he sat down on the couch and waited for her to pick out a movie to watch.

He didn't know what movie it was as he fell asleep a few minutes into it.

Niko sighed and said, “You're hopeless.”

She grabbed a blanket and let his head fall down onto her lap, giving him a lap pillow.

Niko pulling the blanket over the both of them and drifted off to sleep as well.
