The jeepney was on a deserted back street, waiting for his cue

A jeepney—one of those refurbished military vehicles once left behind by American forces—was parked quietly by the roadside. In this country, they serve as a kind of bus, but this one stood on a back street, far from the bustle and nowhere near a busy bus route. No passengers in sight. Maybe it was simply waiting, patiently, for its moment to shine.

But when does that moment come? The jeepney sat motionless under the sharp afternoon sun. Maybe, like Count Dracula, it’s nocturnal. If that’s the case, there’s still time before dusk—plenty of time to rest its bones a little longer.
