The child no one wants

“Wake up, little devil!”

Inside a warehouse, which feels abandoned for many years, a group of men stand around a seven year old boy who has passed out directly on the dirty floor without even a thin mat under him, while also throwing a huge bucket of cold water to the little primary school student wearing the uniform of a famous private school. So his body is totally shocked by the completely cold water while his vision is still blurred from the effects of the drug they used to drug him.

“Hey, Hin... Coof... Cof...”

“He doesn't seem to be reacting yet.”

Surprise.

“Ouch!”

A sharp pain finally makes the little one react, as a huge hand holds the child's cheek tightly so that his beautiful eyes see an image that brings complete terror to his little heart.

“Who are these people?”

The image before his small eyes is that of four huge men covering half of his face with cloth, he can only see the terrible mischievous eyes looking at him as if he were delicious prey.

“Wow! You're finally awake! It's time to call dad...”

“Ah! Who are you...”

The little one asks in an unsure voice as his body trembles — uncontrollably. Watching him, the men only laugh in derision by not answering his question, they simply focus on finding the recyclable phones with which they intend to make the call to Metthanan Manor for one purpose only.

“Ask Khun Try to answer the call.”

[Khun Try is not at home at the moment.]

“Damnation! Have someone answer the call immediately if... They want little Tul to come home alive!”

[Huh?... It's... Just a moment.]

The other end of the phone goes silent in utter panic when he suddenly hears the horrible sound of the kidnapper's laughter directed at the boy; which, by the way, he is quite intelligent and is slowly understanding the situation he finds himself in. Tul is thinking how he came to that place. The last memory he has is that he and Hin were waiting for someone to take them home, but when he left school someone held him down and he only heard the cries and moans of his dear friend; then... he woke up here.

“Where...Hin is here?”

He asks about his friend with a shaky voice letting one of them roll their eyes and ask again.

“Where is my friend? My friend...”

“Is dead!”

The little body becomes rigid and totally dazed from the extreme shock, he can only look at the person with that horrible smile and then he peers at the place where he was captured in the hope of seeing his dear friend, but he realizes that he is not there. So fear begins to tear at his heart like an evil demon, he is so scared that tears begin to flow, so the kidnapper takes out his phone to scream at him.

“Oh, no. Do not dare...”

“Stop that! Do not Cry! If you cry I'll grab your neck and break it for sure! What the fuck... Why is it taking so long? You better answer quickly!”

“Do you want to track us through the call?”

“Damn, are you watching too many movies? This is Thailand! Do you think they can really do it?”
