the end of history
dropped off by their respective jeeps, john and annie meet at the caltex where annie would hail a trike to take her home. they haven't seen each other in three years -- a pleasant surprise.
so how should i call you now? johnny asks.
she's sitting in the back of his dad's car. his dad's driving, but it's his phone that's hooked up to the radio.
oh right -- you knew me before i was called annie. don't worry, you can call me anything you want.
we do have quite the history together, he recalls. i still like you, you know. i never stopped liking you, not even after our long periods of absence. i can't imagine a future where we won't ever meet again.
annie gets out of the car. me neither. but i can't believe, of all my friends, you're the only one left back here, driving me to naia. don't you have any plans to go abroad?
to follow you, perhaps. they laugh. john doesn't know what album to switch to for the long and lonely drive back home. annie takes a stilnox once she's boarded.
when she wakes up, she's in manila again. she thinks time's not touched the place one bit, for better or worse. she hails a cab.
