FOUR DADDIES

🧸 1

Twenty years ago South Korea has created new exam which everyone takes at age of 15. Thanks to this exam young people are divined into three categories. They are a little, a sub or a dominant. Their lives depends on their category. Littles usually end in adoption centers because they aren't able to take care of themself and often committed suicide because they cant be happy if they need to be act like adults. Now society thinks that everything is okay but doesn't see what is really happening. Littles are often neglected and abused. After all they are the perfect target. Weak, submissive and scared, without chance to defeat themself. Their only hope is getting adopted but it doesn't always mean that their life will be better.

Little space shelter in Seoul isn't better. It is huge building where live more than two hundreds of littles. The main caregiver Lee Daehyun is cruel man who hates his work. He hates every little who is here and likes to punish them. In his office is hanging thick leather belt and next to it is hanging thin sharp

switch. Daehyun is using these tools to punish the littles and frequent target of his hate is Taemin. Daehyun doesn't know what is so irritating on him, he simply hates this boy. Right now Daehyun is standing at door leading to big dining room. Every little is holding plastic tray and waits in long line for bowl of soup. He spotted Taemin and smirked. He bumped into the boy and Taemin's breakfast fell on ground.

"Ahh you again?! You are doing a mess!"

Daehyun grabbed his arm and painfully squeezed the soft flesh.

"Show me your palms."

Taemin knows what is coming next but still does as the man wants. Daehyun hit Taemin's palms three times with his switch and then drags Taemin into kitchen and pushed him to a sink.

"You are going to wash the dishes today!"

Taemin sobs quietly and takes first plate from the never ending piles. After more than two hours when is everyone already playing Taemin finished. His hands hurt from the hot water but finally he can play. He head to his room which he shares with another three littles and takes his most beloved thing - pink stuffed bunny.

Littles are in play room and play with toys which were given to the adoption center. Taemin spotted his best friend Jongin and goes to play with him. They are playing with their stuffies, Taemin's bunny and Jongin's brown puppy. They aren't the caregiver's favorites so usually there are no toys for them. The most favorite littles are occupying best toys and Jongin with Taemin don't want to cause problems. They both hope that someone nice will adopt them but somehow no one notices them. Taemin is looking at his palms with long blue bruises and wishes someone who would treat his wounds and cuddle with him. For now he has to wait and try to stay away from Daehyun as far as possible.
