   • 1983, The Diliman Review

     Angal ka nang angal, lintik ka, wala naman sa oras. Pero hindi ako sa 'yo nag-iinit, kundi sa. . . Mga demonyo, kung kailan dapat tumawa, hindi tatawa. Ngayong wala nang nakakatawa, doon naman tatawa. Pag ako namang tatawa, bawal.

     You keep on complaining, you jerk, even when it is not the right time. But I'm not pissed off with you... it's rather those demons, when they must laugh, they don't. When no one laughs, they'll do. When I will laugh, you're not.

     "You wake up, bastard! Or I'll splash hot water on you!" The siren repeated. Even in this Time of Abundance, our lives are still worthless! When in the Time of Famine in this house...

     “Akala mo eh matsatsambahan mo 'ko lintik ka!” Gagawin na sana ni Claude ang pinakahuli niyang “move” nang magsalita na ang buwaya. Nagulat ang binata dahil nagsasalita naman pala ang Vrandolon.

     "You think you can catch me, you jerk!" Claude should do his last move when the crocodile spoke. The boy was shocked when Vrandolon actually spoke.

   Lintik kang hayop ka!

   You're a jerk, you animal!
