Lilac looks at the figure stomping away and smiles. "I can't believe I made a new friend!" She thinks to herself. She bends over and starts picking some wildflowers. "I'll give some to mommy." she thinks to herself, as she grabs pink, blue, and purple flowers.
The boy glances behind to see the girl busy picking flowers. He touches his hair. "Is this why my name is Cloudy?" He thinks to himself. He slowly walks across the field and to his hotel. Suddenly, he is confronted by three other kids, with bruises as well.
"Hey! Did you think that you could just walk away like that?" The leader of the pack says as he steps forward confidently.
The little boy smirks. "Want me to beat you guys up again?" He says as he tries to walk past them. Suddenly, one of them pushes him to the ground. The leader kicks him as the boy tries to wildly fight back. Suddenly, a voice calls out.
"Sam! What are you doing!" A man says, running over to his son, the leader of the pack. He frantically grabs his son and pulls him away. He looks at the little boy who his son was kicking. The white hair and cold blue eyes immediately reminds him who this child is.
"Little Master!" The man exclaims. "I apologize deeply for my son's behavior." He respectfully says to the child. The little boy doesn't say anything, but stares at the man with his cold gaze.
"Dad! This kid called me fat and ugly!" The leader wails to the man. However, the man hushes his child harshly. "Don't you ever bother this little boy again!" The man says to his son.
"Is something the matter here Adler?"
The man slowly turns and sees the powerful, dark presence in front of him. "Mr. Rebal!" The man says. Suddenly, the little boy, Adler, who was so cold just moments ago runs to his father.
"Daddy! These kids bullied me!" Adler whines to his father.
"Adler, don't play with kids that hurt you, okay?" The man, Mr. Rebal, says to his son affectionately. "I won't help their families either."
"Sir! Mr. Rebal!" The man says desperately. "I deeply apologize for my son's brashness, but please don't cancel our contract."
However, the father-son duo leaves without saying another word to the man.
The little boy, Sam, looks at his father, who looks helpless for the first time.
"Why.... Why did you do that Sam?" The man says to his son. "You just angered the second son of W.R. Corporation..."
The eight-year old boy is even shocked at his father's words. Even small children know of W.R. Corporation, the biggest company in the country!
As Alder and his father walk away, Adler peeks behind his shoulder. His eyes meet with the little boy who was kicking him earlier. He smirks and turns back.

Lilac finishes picking her flowers. She happily skips toward her home, a luxurious modern home in the midst of the green nature. She quietly steps into the home.
"Hello little miss." The butler says to her.
"Hi Lawrence! Is mommy in her room?" She asks him.
"Yes she is but she-"
"Ok, thanks!" The little girl says cutting off the butler. Lilac runs upstairs into her mother's room. Inside, she sees her mother in bed, staring out the window. She looks as if she is daydreaming and lost in her own world. However, as soon as she see Lilac, her expression brightens up.
"Darling! Did you bring me flowers?"
