Kazuko, Ayaka, and Nene

Kazuko, Ayaka, and Nene were assembled in the garage where Tension rehearsed their music. A sour mood filled the air, allowed to fester by the absence of Tension's fourth member, ty. Kazuko is the first to break the silence.
Kazuko: "You know, I've said this before, but I think we could go on as a three piece. We don't need that prick ty with us. They're just a pain."
Ayaka, who was cuddled up to Kazuko, raises her hands in a placating gesture. Her expression is uneasy, the impending conflict clearly upsetting her.
Ayaka: "Come on, Kazuko, don't be so mean. I'm sure we're all able to reach an understanding with-"
Kazuko turns to look at Ayaka with an annoyed scowl, and Ayaka stops talking and looks down, despondent. Nene, while carefully arranging her drum set, speaks indifferently.
Nene: "Just kick the fucker out. I don't like them, Kazuko doesn't like them. We're not the fucking Beatles, we're not going to make anything good while two of us want the shithead gone."
Kazuko and Nene's words clearly hurt Ayaka, but she can't muster the courage to speak in ty's defence. The silence returns as the three wait for the subject of their conversation to arrive.
