Adorable tiny baby monkey Boboo sat curled on the soft mat, his round belly empty and aching. Time moved too slowly for someone so small. His eyes followed every sound, every shadow, hoping it was Mom coming with milk. But minutes passed, and hunger grew louder inside him.
Boboo’s face tightened. His lips trembled, then suddenly opened wide. An angry cry burst out, sharp and demanding. He kicked his tiny feet and waved his little arms, frustration spilling over. Being late with feeding felt unbearable. To Boboo, hunger wasn’t just discomfort—it was fear, confusion, and impatience all mixed together.
He cried harder, his voice cracking between anger and desperation. Tears rolled down his fluffy cheeks, soaking into his fur. He looked toward the doorway again and again, calling Mom with everything he had. His small body shook as he screamed, as if the sound itself could make milk appear faster.
Mom hurried as soon as she heard him. She felt her heart sink with guilt. She hadn’t meant to be late. Chores, distractions, and time had slipped away. But Boboo didn’t know that. All he knew was that his tummy hurt and his comfort was missing.
The moment Mom appeared, Boboo’s cries grew louder for a second, like he needed her to understand how upset he was. His angry little face was red, wet, and exhausted. Mom rushed over, scooping him up gently, whispering apologies over and over.
Boboo clung to her tightly, still crying but already calming. When the milk finally touched his lips, everything changed. His angry screams faded into soft sucking sounds. His body relaxed. His eyes slowly closed halfway, relief washing over him.
Mom held him close, watching his chest rise and fall. Boboo finished feeding, full and warm at last. His anger melted away completely, replaced by peaceful breathing and sleepy comfort.
Late feeding had caused tears, but love healed it quickly. In Mom’s arms, Boboo learned that even when hunger hurts, she always comes back. And Mom learned that to a tiny heart, timing means everything, especially when love is served with milk.
