It was a peaceful afternoon at home, and little Jasmine was sitting on the wooden bed, playing with her tiny fingers. She looked adorable in her soft pink outfit, her big round eyes scanning the room.
But suddenly—Mom stood up and walked toward the door.
“Stay here, Jasmine. Mommy will be back soon,” Mom said gently as she stepped outside to take the clothes drying in the sun.
Jasmine froze for a moment, watching her mom disappear. Then, her little lips curled downward, her eyes filled with tears, and within seconds—she burst into an extreme crying tantrum!
“WAAAHH!! MOMMY!!” Jasmine screamed, kicking her tiny legs on the bed. Her arms waved frantically, reaching toward the door.
She couldn’t understand why her mom would leave her alone, even for a short time!
She rolled onto her belly, buried her face into the blanket, and sobbed loudly. “Mooommm! No gooo!!”
Her cries echoed through the room, so loud that even the birds outside fluttered away in surprise.
A few minutes later, Mom rushed back inside, her hands full of clean clothes. “Oh, my sweet baby! Mommy is here!” she said, quickly putting everything down.
The moment Jasmine saw her mom again, she sniffled, wiped her teary eyes, and reached out her tiny arms. Mom scooped her up, hugging her tightly.
Jasmine clung onto her mom’s neck like a koala, her little heart still racing.
“Mommy won’t leave you, my love,” Mom whispered, kissing her forehead.
Jasmine hiccupped and sniffled, finally calming down in her mother’s warm embrace. Nothing in the world felt safer than being in Mommy’s arms
