The jungle was quiet after a small storm, and little baby monkey Lino sat alone under a big tree, eyes full of tears. Earlier that day, he had been playful and naughty, jumping from branch to branch, pulling his mother’s tail and ignoring her calls to stay close. His mother, Lila, had tried to keep him safe, but Lino ran away into the bushes — only to be scared by loud noises and falling leaves.
When he finally found his way back, his mother wasn’t angry. She just sat there, tired and sad, watching her little one approach slowly. Lino’s heart filled with guilt as he saw the worry in her eyes. He crawled toward her, head bowed low, tiny hands trembling as he whispered in his soft cry, “I’m so sorry, Mummy…”
Lila reached out and gently wrapped her arms around him. For a moment, the whole forest seemed to stop. The baby monkey clung tightly to his mother’s chest, his tears soaking into her fur. She didn’t scold him; she just held him closer, as if to say, “You’re safe now, my baby.”
That night, Lino stayed close to his mom, not daring to wander off again. The lesson was deep and full of love — that a mother’s heart can forgive anything when her baby truly understands. 💖🐒
