Arcadia
nicotineSynopsis
Van Clark returns to his hometown to find his missing grandmother, only to be given a suspicious mission. He must protect ‘it’ for one year without letting anyone take it away.
The dubious cell his grandmother left him with a note grows at an astonishing rate, contrary to his expectations. With his eyes on the million-dollar prize for completing the mission, Van jumps into the role of a babysitter. But what is this?
“Then teach me.”
“What?”
“Just like you taught me to read, teach me how to kiss, too.”
Dia, who has grown up rapidly, begins to make ungrateful advances.
“You’re my first, Van. It’ll be good for you too if I take you.”
“…What did you just say?”
“I’m young. I’m firm and strong. It’s big down there, too. You said big is good…”
Van is both dumbfounded and confused by the brazen attacks from the very young Dia. He repeatedly rejects the advances of the boy he raised with his own hands, but he can’t hide his growing attraction. Finally, the time to let Dia go approaches, and Van finds himself at a crossroads. A million dollars, or the boy. As he must choose one, Van’s conflict deepens…
