Desires, expectations (5)
I believe the answer is:
hopes
I believe this is a double definition.
'desires' is the first definition.
('hope' can be a synonym of 'desire')
'expectations' is the second definition.
(hope is a kind of expectation)
(Other definitions for hopes that I've seen before include "Expectations" , "Desires and expects" , "Believes that good things may happen" , "Aspires" , "Aspirations, wishes" .)
