Little Minea was sitting close to Mom, enjoying a quiet and comfortable moment. She felt safe and happy being right beside her.
But then Chamroeun came closer.
The moment Minea saw Chamroeun near Mom, her expression suddenly changed. Her eyes narrowed, and her tiny body became tense.
She didn’t like it.
Minea wanted Mom all to herself.
At first, she stared silently, watching Chamroeun move closer. But the jealousy quickly grew stronger inside her.
Then suddenly—
“EEEEEE!”
Minea began screaming loudly, her mouth wide open as she shouted toward Chamroeun. Her tiny hands waved in the air, clearly warning him not to come any closer.
“Eee! Eee!”
The jealous little monkey leaned forward, showing her tiny teeth and making sharp sounds. It was her way of saying, “Stay away! This is my Mom!”
Chamroeun paused, surprised by the loud reaction.
Mom quickly noticed what was happening.
She gently stepped in, placing a calming hand on Minea while also keeping Chamroeun close. She softly spoke to Minea, trying to reassure her.
At first, Minea kept shouting.
Her face still looked angry, and her small body stayed tense. She didn’t want to share Mom’s attention.
But after a few moments, her loud screams slowly began to fade.
Mom gently held both little monkeys, showing them that there was enough love for everyone.
Minea finally became quieter.
Though still a bit grumpy, she stopped shouting and stayed close, slowly calming down.
Even with her jealous and dramatic moments, Minea’s actions came from one simple feeling—she just loved Mom very much and didn’t want to share her.
