In a quiet little village, mornings were usually peaceful. The roosters crowed, the breeze carried the scent of blooming flowers, and families started their day with simple routines. But one family, known for raising not only a newborn baby but also two cheeky monkeys, never had an “ordinary” morning. Because wherever CUTIS and the baby monkey were involved, something funny—and sometimes unbelievable—was bound to happen.
Mom, still recovering after giving birth, often left the newborn in a cradle on the porch, while she prepared food in the kitchen. Dad busied himself with chores in the yard. CUTIS, the clever but mischievous little monkey, loved sitting by the cradle, watching the baby’s tiny fingers curl and uncurl. The baby monkey, smaller and more innocent, often copied CUTIS, sitting nearby with curious eyes.
But one morning, CUTIS had a big idea—one that would shock everyone.
CUTIS’s Bold Plan
The newborn cooed softly in the cradle, waving its tiny hands as though trying to play. CUTIS leaned over and chattered, “Eee-eee,” as if saying, Why just lie here all day? Let’s go play!
The baby monkey tilted his head. “Chii-chii?” he squeaked, unsure.
CUTIS’s tail twitched with excitement. He hopped down, tugged at the cradle, and made a determined face. The baby monkey gasped, realizing CUTIS was trying to take the newborn outside!
At first, the baby monkey hesitated. But CUTIS gave him a cheeky grin, as though promising it would be fun. Slowly, the baby monkey climbed up and helped push. Together, with little grunts and squeaks, they managed to slide the cradle inch by inch across the porch.
The newborn giggled, enjoying the movement, completely unaware of the chaos about to unfold.
The Great Escape
CUTIS led the way like a tiny adventurer. He and the baby monkey pushed the cradle toward the garden, then down the path leading to the village. The wheels squeaked, leaves crunched underfoot, and the monkeys worked together like a team.
Finally, CUTIS decided the cradle was too slow. He squeaked at the baby monkey, pointed at the newborn, and motioned as if to say, Let’s carry the baby instead!
The baby monkey’s eyes widened in shock. “Chi-chi?!”
But CUTIS was determined. With surprising gentleness, he scooped the newborn into his tiny arms, while the baby monkey walked beside him, acting like a helper.
The sight was unbelievable—two monkeys carrying a newborn out to play!
The Playground Adventure
Their first stop was under the big mango tree near the yard. CUTIS sat the newborn down carefully on a blanket of grass. The baby monkey gathered flowers and leaves, placing them around the baby like decorations.
The newborn waved its little arms happily, cooing and kicking. CUTIS clapped, bouncing in excitement. To him, this was “playing,” and he was proud of his idea.
Then, CUTIS climbed the mango tree, plucked a small ripe fruit, and gently placed it beside the baby, as if giving a gift. The baby monkey followed, bringing sticks and pebbles, showing them proudly like toys.
The newborn gurgled in delight. CUTIS and the baby monkey thought they were the best babysitters in the world.
Meanwhile, in the House…
Mom finished preparing food and stepped out to check on the baby. Her heart nearly stopped—the cradle was empty!
“OH NO!” she cried. “The baby!”
Dad dropped his tools and rushed over. “Where is CUTIS? Where is the baby monkey?”
They searched frantically, calling out. That’s when they heard giggles and monkey chatter coming from the garden.
Mom and Dad ran toward the sound, their hearts pounding.
The Shocking Scene
There, under the mango tree, sat CUTIS and the baby monkey, proudly “playing” with the newborn. The baby lay on the grass surrounded by flowers, mangoes, and shiny pebbles, smiling happily as CUTIS tickled its tiny feet.
Mom gasped. “CUTIS! Baby monkey! What are you doing?!”
CUTIS froze, ears perking up. The baby monkey squeaked nervously, hiding behind his older companion. The newborn squealed with laughter, completely enjoying the chaos.
Dad ran forward, scooping up the baby carefully. “You two could have hurt the baby!” he scolded.
But CUTIS jumped up and pointed at the flowers, then at the mango, then at the baby’s happy face, as if saying, Look! We just wanted to make the baby smile.
A Mix of Emotions
At first, Mom was angry and frightened. The thought of the monkeys carrying the newborn was terrifying. But when she saw how gentle CUTIS had been, and how happy the baby looked, her heart softened.
“You silly monkeys,” she sighed, hugging the baby close. “You scared me half to death. But… you really do love the baby, don’t you?”
CUTIS lowered his head guiltily, then squeaked softly. The baby monkey nodded, holding out a flower like a peace offering.
Dad shook his head, torn between laughing and scolding. “Unbelievable. Only CUTIS would think it’s a good idea to take a newborn out to play.”
The Funny Aftermath
The villagers, hearing the story later, burst into laughter. “Two monkeys babysitting? That’s the funniest thing I’ve ever heard!”
“They’re unbelievable,” another said. “But at least they meant well.”
From that day, Mom and Dad kept a much closer eye on CUTIS and the baby monkey whenever the newborn was around. But secretly, they also felt touched. For all their mischief, the monkeys’ actions came from a place of pure affection.
Lessons Learned
Mom sat CUTIS and the baby monkey down that evening. “Listen, you two,” she said gently. “The baby is small and fragile. You mustn’t take it out without us. Promise me?”
CUTIS nodded solemnly, patting his chest as though swearing an oath. The baby monkey squeaked in agreement.
“Good,” Mom smiled. “Because I know you love this baby. And the baby loves you too.”
As if to prove her point, the newborn reached out and grabbed CUTIS’s finger, cooing softly. CUTIS’s eyes sparkled, and he leaned close, chattering lovingly.
It was a funny, unbelievable day—but also a touching reminder that love sometimes shows itself in unexpected ways.
A Memory to Cherish
Years later, people in the village would still tell the tale:
“Remember the time CUTIS and the baby monkey took the newborn out to play?”
“Unbelievable! It was so funny, but so touching too.”
And Mom, though she had nearly fainted from fright that day, always smiled when she remembered. Because even though CUTIS and the baby monkey had caused chaos, their love for the baby was pure and strong.
In the end, the story wasn’t just about monkeys making mischief. It was about family—messy, funny, and full of surprises, but always bound together by love.
