6 year old Sophia Lee Sung covers her mouth like pretending to sneeze but actually is hiding her yawn due to boredom. Having spent the last 2 hours looking around the opulent and lavish sitting room of the Jeon family country home, the only thing good about today's visit with her parents was the food. 

Not caring in the least about the latest gossip about who's dating who much less engaged to who, she looks around and studies the two servants who are standing against the walls like soldiers awaiting orders. One is a middle-aged woman who smiles at her every time she catches Sophia glancing at her. The other is a man dressed in what looks like a penguin suit to little Sophia. He has a funny mustache that curls around his lips and up towards his nose and he twitches his lips intentionally when Sophia looks at him just to make her smile and hear her adorably cute giggles. 

Just then she notices 2 specs outside running from the side yard and as they get closer she sees they are two boys about her age. As they get near the double doors leading out and behind the ladies that are too busy gossiping, they approach slowly and peek in with their hands cupping the sides of their faces. Sophia looks around to see if any of the other adults in the room have noticed the young peepers but again only the man's lip curls up in a small smirk but keeps looking straight ahead as if in attention. 

When Sophia looks back at the boys, the one with black hair, bangs falling over his doe eye gives Sophia a bunny smile then sticks his tongue out at her before running off to play. Sophia frowns thinking "what a rude bunny boy!" but then can't help smiling when the boy with his soft brown wavy hair gives her a boxy smile and makes a wave to her asking her to come out to join them.  Sophia nervously looks at her mother but is hesitant to ask for permission as her mother is strict on what 'proper young ladies' should and shouldn't do. And pretty sure playing in the snow with two cute boys is probably not 'proper'. 

Sighing and looking wistfully outside where the boys had previously been, she hears a slight cough from the lady servant who motions for her to come with her. Sophia then has an idea and asks her mother if she can use the restroom to which her mother just waves her away without looking at her and continues talking with Mrs. Jeon. When she follows the servant into the next room, she sees another set of double-doors leading out and the servant quickly helps her into her coat so she can go outside. 

Happily Sophia runs out tip-toeing past the salon where the ladies are obliviously talking then again when she passes the window where her father and Mr. Jeon are also discussing boring business in the office. When she feels she's past not being discovered she looks around for the boys and sees them having a snowball fight in the distance. One of the boys sees her playing jumping into their foot tracks in the snow since her feet are smaller and stops to stare at her. To young Tae, she looks like a perfectly cute doll. He stops looking at her when a ball of snow hits him directly on the face luckily not thrown too hard by master Jungkook. 

"Ha-Ha! That's what you get Tae for staring at the little alien girl!" laughs Jungkook. Tae turns to glare at him and replies, "Don't call her that. Can't you see she's an angel that fell from the sky you dumbo?!" Jungkook looks at the girl with a frown and slight tilt of his head trying to see why Tae calls her an angel. "I don't see any wings or a halo so if she fell from the sky she's definitely an alien. An ugly little alien." Jungkook laughs again. 

Sophia hears all their conversation and bends down to grab a handful of snow and packing it in her small hand into a hard ball and pulling her arm back throws it as hard as she can at the rude bunny. It hits him on his forehead covering his face with snow even into his open mouth that was laughing.
