Years ago, I lived with my family in a subdivision in Quezon City. Although it has been a long time since we moved away, I still have fond memories of the years I lived there.
Right in the middle of the subdivision is a large parcel of land – a whole block. Aside from several tennis courts, a plaza and a chapel, this is also where the basketball court is located. Despite the existing amenities, there is still a large lot that remained unused. Credit goes to the homeowners who planted trees years earlier. The residents of this subdivision called this block the recreational park.
During afternoons, the tennis courts are occupied by mostly adults. Some old people and mostly young girls jog around the park. As for me, we young boys occupy the basketball court. Normally, we play loosely, but around late afternoons, our play picks up. This is the time when girls who finish jogging rest their tired legs by sitting on concrete benches around the basketball court.
For reasons only our collective egos and hormones can explain, our intensity level increases, depending on how hot the girls are. Obviously, when some of our prettier neighbors are watching, we tend to try to outdo each other, trying to impress.
In the months that followed after my family moved into the subdivision, I became good friends with several neighbors. We started to have drinking sessions at night. Although it is not allowed, we have our private party in the park, by the trees, in the dark. I study in a school where girls are conservative, so I could not bring anyone from my school, but my neighbors, they often have girls from their school joining us. Alcohol, boys and girls, unsupervised in the dark, you could just imagine what happens after.
