CHAPTER 4: Gloomy Hosts

Today is a very different day in the 3rd floor Music room of Ouran High School. Although every single day, different events happen in that room. But today is not the same day as of those days unlike in the past all hosts gave their precious smile to all their customers. Today no host wants to work, to display their beauty, especially their King. Because of this, all the customers are so disappointed in not seeing their favorite host.

Seeing the sign posted in the big Victorian door of the music room. One of the regular customers shouted in shocked, "Eh!? The Host Club is temporarily closed?!" then she fainted.

"Uh! Too bad I won't see Haruhi today" said one of the regular customers of Haruhi in dismay.

Then suddenly the door opened. 5 boys went out of the room. The fan girls went wild seeing their presence.

"Iyay! Hikaru! Kaoru!"

"Ah! Honey-senpai!! Mori-senpai!"

"Ah! Kyouya!"

"Sorry for the inconvenience, our princesses. But do feel free to see our website. We have there the latest photos of your favorite host, and an auction on Honey-senpai's cutest baby picture" Kyouya said in a business manner.

Hearing does last words of Kyouya made the fan girls wild especially the customers of Honey-senpai. They assure Kyouya that they'll visit the host club's website. Then out of the blue, one of the fan girls asked,

"Demo, why is the club temporarily close?"

"Well, it's because Tono is grieving" Kaoru replied in a sad voice. While Hikaru opened the door widely, letting the fan girls see their King's situation.

Tamaki's is kneeling on the floor crying at the picture frame in front of him. The picture frame is placed on a table surrounded with white roses, a candle at each side and 3 incenses at the center.

"Oh! My precious daughter! Why did you leave daddy?!" Tamaki whaled and elegantly wiped the tears on his cheeks.

The fan girls looked sad, almost crying, seeing Tamaki's actions.

Honey-senpai spoke "We all are grieving", and then whined, tightening his hug in his bunny rabbit, he ran inside the room like a child who just lost his marbles.

"Honey-senpai!" the twins' said in chorus.

Mori followed his cousin inside to comfort him.

"Poor Honey-senpai" Kaoru said sympathizing his senior. Then Hikaru hugged his brother, caressing his twin's hair, he spoke "It's ok, brother. I'm here you can lean on me".

"Kawai! The brotherly love" screamed the fan girls.

"Come on! Hikaru! Kaoru! Let's go inside" Kyouya said pushing the twins inside the room.

"Excuse us, ladies. We're really sorry about this scenario that you've seen" Kyouya said as he closed the door.

Kyouya examined the chaos of not having Haruhi around. Tamaki and Honey-senpai are competing in making the loudest cry. While Mori and the twins are comforting the two, Hikaru suddenly punch the wall and shouted, "Darn it! Haruhi why?! Why?!" teardrops flow in his cheeks after saying those last words.

"Hikaru!" Kaoru shouted then hugged his twin.


Few hours before this scenario

--Flashback--

"Tono! Haruhi didn't come to our first class!" the twins informed Tamaki in chorus.

"Eh?! That's very unusual of Haruhi" Tamaki replied.

"Haruhi is a scholar she has to maintain her grade. Being absent gives her disadvantage in having a high grade" Kyouya said as-a-matter-of-fact.

"Maybe she's really sick" Honey-senpai commented.

"Oh! No?! My precious daughter is sick!?" Tamaki whined.

"Ne, Takashi let's visit Haru-chan after classes are over" Honey-senpai said to his cousin.

Mori only nod to his cousin in reply.

"Ah! I want to come too!" Tamaki said in a childish manner wiggling his hand.

"Ok, you can come with us. We'll also bring strawberry cake for Haru-chan", said Honey in a candid way.

"Very well! Then the Host club will visit Haru-chan in his apartment after classes are over" Tamaki informed his members.

"But Tamaki, we have hosting after classes are over." Kyouya informed their King.

"Then, let's not host for today!" Honey suggested.

"Hai! I agree with Honey-senpai's suggestion. Okasan, our daughter needs us! That is why today the Host club is temporarily closed" Tamaki said.

"Demo! Tono.." the twins' said in unison.

"Eh?!" Tamaki looked at their direction.

"What if Haruhi's not really sick..." Hikaru said.

"..What if she got into an accident while walking to school" Kaoru said.

Then the twins looked at each other then said in chorus. "Tono! Maybe Haruhi's been kidnapped by those Lobelia primadonnas, again!?"

Tamaki shivers hearing those words from the twins, "Noo!!Okasan!! call your special police force. We need to rescue our precious daughter!!"

Then they heard a knock on the door.

"Ah! Maybe that's Haru-chan knocking" Honey said.

"I'll open it" Tamaki said skipping to the door direction.

When he opened the door, he hug the person in front of him thinking that it was Haruhi. He spoke, "My precious daughter! You came! You made Daddy worried!"

Tamaki didn't notice that the person his really hugging is actually Ranka.

Ranka got so annoyed at Tamaki that he punch him on the head and spoke, "Baka! Who you calling your precious?!

"R – Ranka!? I t – thought you were Haruhi" Tamaki said.

"Good thing I wasn't really Haruhi. You almost choke me to death with your hug." Ranka said.

"Tono always do that to Haruhi" the twins informed Ranka.
