    A conversation while lying on a cemented parking lot. The view: the dark night sky, with fluffs of clouds and twinkling stars, while waiting for the Geminid meteor shower.

    Me: Anong iwi-wish niyo?
    Paul: Love.
    Libay: Sex.
    Ab: Money.
    Libay: Ikaw?
    Me: (beat) Love din.

    Another exchange while sitting on the driveway pavement, neck inclining backward to wait for the meteor shower. The view: still the same starry sky, waiting for another shooting star.

    Me: Eleven na. Wala na wish mo.
    Libay: Hindi--meron pa yan!
    Paul: Wala. Wala ng sex.
    Libay: Ayun! *loud talakera laughter*
    Paul: Oo nga, nakita ko din. Parang sperm.

    Tis. To our hearts' desires. - 12/15/2012
