The morning light painted soft gold across the garden where Mom worked quietly, sorting fruits and cleaning up the area. But just a few steps away, her tiny baby monkey sat patiently, watching every move she made with curious eyes. His name was Tomi, and though small, he was full of affection — the kind of love that never strayed far from Mom’s side.
Tomi’s little hands played with a leaf, but his eyes stayed fixed on her. Every time Mom moved, he tilted his head, following her like a shadow. When she bent down to pick up something, he scooted closer, his tail twitching with excitement. To him, Mom was his whole world — his warmth, comfort, and favorite playmate.
Mom glanced back at him with a smile, her heart melting at the sight of her baby’s tiny face. “Just a moment, sweetheart,” she seemed to say as she continued her chores. But Tomi didn’t mind waiting. Even when Mom was busy, her presence made him feel safe and happy.
After a while, Tomi couldn’t resist anymore. He toddled closer on his wobbly legs and gently tugged at Mom’s arm. She turned and laughed softly, seeing her little one’s pleading eyes. It was as if he was saying, “Mommy, can you play now?”
Mom reached out and gave him a gentle pat, rubbing his head with affection. Tomi responded with the sweetest smile, pressing his tiny face against her hand. He didn’t need much — just a little touch, a little love, and he was content again.
When Mom stood up to finish her work, Tomi lay down nearby, rolling on his back and making funny little sounds to get her attention. His cute antics made Mom giggle. Even while working, she couldn’t help but bend down and kiss his soft cheek.
The bond between them was pure and beautiful — a simple moment of love between mother and baby. Though Mom was busy, her heart was always connected to her little one. And Tomi, the adorable baby monkey, showed that love doesn’t need words — only closeness, trust, and a gentle smile.
