A crisis of continuation

The night before last I went for drinks with people who entered my old company at the same time. Our friendship, six members, has lasted about thirty years, although we are in different careers now. Last year, we decided that we would get together twice a year in the future. Of course, all of us should participate in it, but unfortunately one of us, my best friend, is going to move to the UK in the autumn and two of us will move to Yamagata Prefecture next month. Unbelievable! We are going to get together at a hot spring in Yamagata Prefecture next time for the moment, but can we continue the party? 

By the way, we met in Shinjuku, Kabuki-cho. I went to Kabuki-cho for the first time in a long time. I got lost and strayed off into the terrible place! No, interesting place! There were so many hosts, you know, Japanese hosts, on the street. Maybe, more than a hundred hosts were there. They stood in front of the shop and called out for passersby to come in. It was my first experience of meeting real hosts. It was the world I’ve never known, so it was kind of exciting. Fortunately they weren’t my cup of tea (^▽^)
