Today, my heart broke for a poor little baby monkey that was abandoned and left all alone in the forest. She had no one to care for her, and you could see the sadness and confusion in her tiny eyes. It was so pity to watch her wandering around, calling out for her mom with a soft, trembling voice that echoed through the trees.
Meanwhile, nearby were Luna and Lucie, two mischievous older monkeys. They didn’t understand how scared and lonely the baby was. Instead of helping, they started to tease her. They swung from branch to branch, making loud noises and trying to grab the baby’s tail. The poor little one was already frightened, and their behavior only made her more panicked.
The baby tried to run away, her tiny legs stumbling over roots and rocks. Luna and Lucie thought it was funny and kept chasing her. My heart sank as I watched the tiny monkey’s face fill with fear and confusion. She was so young and didn’t understand why they were being so mean.
I knew I had to do something. Slowly, I approached her and gently scooped her up in my arms. She clung to me, her small hands holding tight to my shirt. Her tiny body trembled against mine, but she was finally safe from the teasing of Luna and Lucie.
It was a powerful moment to see how fragile she was, and how important it is to show kindness and care to those who are vulnerable. I hope that one day, Luna and Lucie will understand that teasing and annoying others isn’t fun—it’s hurtful. For now, I’ll make sure this little baby feels loved and protected. No baby monkey should ever feel so abandoned and alone.
