once, late at night, everyone was driving in the car from some important conference in Ray's car, of course. There was an awkward silence while everyone was preoccupied with their own thoughts, but they were all interrupted by Hicks' voice.

— hey, Ray. Let's go to the gas station. - The guitarist said in his typical relaxed voice, ignoring the awkward situation earlier.

— Yes? And why would I do that? - Ray, who was driving, replied by raising an eyebrow. He cast a questioning glance at Hicks for a moment.

— to buy a coconut cocktail, of course. - he replied with a slight sneer, but before Ray could react, Kio did it with a disapproving glance at Hicks.

— you do this every night after the conference. Are you preparing some kind of big prank or is it just a ritual? - Kio asked directly, staring intently at the guitarist.

Yumi, in turn, listened to everything they were saying, pretending that she was just looking out the window.
