Little Koi had been perfectly comfortable in Mom’s arms—
Warm.
Snuggled.
Happy.
But the moment Mom gently put him down on the floor, his tiny face changed immediately.
His lips pushed into a deep pout.
His brows tightened.
And instead of loud screaming right away, small angry moans started coming out.
“Mmmmmm… ehhh…”
Koi sat there stiffly, clearly offended by the situation. His tiny hands rested on the floor while he looked up at Mom with hurt little eyes full of protest.
Why was he down there?
Why wasn’t he still being carried?
Another grumpy moan escaped him.
“Mmm… ahhh…”
His tiny body leaned forward slightly as if he was debating whether to cry louder or just stay dramatically upset.
Mom smiled softly. “Oh, baby Koi…”
But Koi continued his angry little moaning, making sure Mom understood he did not approve of being put down at all.
No toys interested him.
No distractions helped.
He only wanted one thing—
Back into Mom’s arms.
Finally, his tiny hands reached upward while the moaning became more emotional and needy.
Mom gently picked him up again.
Instant peace.
Koi relaxed against her chest immediately, the angry little noises disappearing as he cuddled close with a satisfied expression.
Safe again.
Spoiled again.
Mom laughed softly while rocking him gently.
Because sometimes, tiny babies don’t need words to complain—
Their grumpy little moans say everything.
