"Sanzo…"
"Sanzo…?"
"Sanzo?"
Sanzo finally snapped out of it. Goku had been tapping on his shoulder for nearly twenty minutes, and Sanzo hadn't even realized it. He looked back, but not angrily.
"What is it, Goku?"
"I'm hungry, Sanzo!"
Finally, the infamous fan came out of the priest's sleeve and Goku received a good thwacking. He fell back into the seat and Gojyo pointed and laughed at the boy before receiving a thwacking of his own. Sanzo sat back in his seat and Hakkai laughed.
"What?"
"Oh, nothing. It's just, you seemed a little out of it just now. Where you thinking about anything important?"
"No… just a girl I met once."
This made Gojyo sit forwards in his seat, with his eyes on the monk.
"YOU met someone? What was it like? Love at first sight? Hmm? Hmmmmmm?"
"Shut up." Thwack.
"It was just a girl I met. Nothing happened."
Gjoyo sighed and sat back in his seat.
"I should have known as much! Our cold-blooded monk couldn't have ever had a romantic encounter!"
Then, Goku leaned up in-between the two seats.
"Sanzo, you mean you were thinking about Koume? After all this time?"
"Yeah…"
Hakkai looked over.
"Koume, you say?"
"Yeah."
"Was she a demon?"
"Of sorts."
"Oh, REALLY…?"
Goku handed Sanzo a beer, and he was taking a drink.
"Why, Hakkai? You know who they're talking about?"
"Well, I've only ever known ONE Koume!"
"Really? Who is she, then?"
"My daughter."
Sanzo immediately spit out his beer. Goku just had a plain, shocked and disturbed look on his face. The other two looked over, and Sanzo had his face buried in his hand.
"What's wrong, Sanzo?"
"Hakkai… I have something to tell you."
"What is it?"
"It's… kind of a sensitive matter."
"What?"
"…We have to remain calm here…"
"Sanzo, tell me what it is."
Sanzo couldn't look strait at Hakkai.
"I kissed your daughter."
And jeep swerved out of control.
"YOU WHAT!"
