Title: Sweet Iced Tea
'verse: possibly
aldersprig's Cali again. If not then another modernish setting in which slavery is still around.
Content note: Well, as mentioned above, slavery. And a hospital. And despite the opening paragraph no in-scene violence, just reference to it happening at other times.
Day 12 – Prompt: Sweet Iced Tea
Owen dreamed of pain. The pummeling he received the night before the first time he could remembered being sold. The time he fell after climbing to the apple he spotted after harvest. The belting he'd earned the last week for talking back at Mistress's son. He only realized he wasn't dreaming any more when he found he couldn't remember why he was hurting now.
