It was a bright sunny morning at the small farm where laughter and chatter often filled the air. The gentle rustling of banana leaves swayed in the breeze, and in the middle of the courtyard, two playful monkeys, Bon and Lulu, were already up to something mischievous.
They had finished breakfast—a plate of sliced mangoes and a bottle of milk—and now were brimming with energy. Their caretaker, Cutis, watched them with a smile, holding her phone to record whatever adorable antics were about to unfold. Bon, the slightly older one, had a sparkle of intelligence in his eyes, while Lulu, younger and rounder, had a soft baby face that made everyone melt.
“Okay, you two,” Cutis said cheerfully, “let’s show everyone your new tricks!”
Bon squeaked excitedly, as if he understood every word. Lulu, still licking mango from her fingers, tilted her head and made a small chirp. It was showtime.
The First Trick: Banana Balance Challenge 🍌
Cutis placed a ripe banana on the small wooden table and said, “Bon, can you balance this on your head?”
Bon eagerly climbed up onto the table, tail swishing proudly. He took the banana from Cutis’s hand, placed it carefully on top of his head, and froze in concentration. His tiny face tightened as he tried not to move. Lulu watched curiously, wide-eyed, as Bon stood perfectly still for five whole seconds.
“Good boy, Bon!” Cutis clapped.
But just as she reached for the treat to reward him, Lulu decided to copy him. She ran up to the table, grabbed another banana, and tried balancing it too—but instead of standing still, she started wiggling and bouncing like a happy baby. The banana immediately slipped off her head and landed right on Bon’s tail.
Bon jumped and looked back at her, squeaking in protest, while Lulu covered her face with her hands and made a funny little giggle.
Cutis laughed so hard that she nearly dropped her phone. “Lulu, you’re supposed to balance, not dance!”
The Second Trick: The Hopping Game 🐾
After the banana chaos, Cutis brought out two small stools. “All right, next one—who can hop from stool to stool without falling?”
Bon instantly took the lead again. He crouched, wiggled his tail for balance, and jumped gracefully from one stool to the other. He landed like a pro gymnast, arms out, and looked back at Cutis proudly.
“Perfect! You’re such a clever boy!” she cheered.
Lulu, of course, wanted to do it too. She climbed onto the first stool, took a deep breath, and jumped… but instead of landing on the second stool, she went flying past it, straight into Cutis’s lap.
Cutis caught her just in time and burst out laughing. Lulu looked up with a pout, then stuck out her tongue as if to say, I meant to do that!
“Okay, you win for funniest jump!” Cutis said, giving her a big hug.
The Third Trick: The Milk Bottle Relay 🍼
For this one, Cutis set two small bottles of milk at opposite ends of the yard. “Whoever brings the bottle back first wins!”
Bon was quick—he sprinted across the yard, grabbed the bottle, and started running back carefully, holding it in both hands. He looked so serious, like a tiny athlete in a race.
Lulu followed, but instead of grabbing the bottle the normal way, she picked it up by the nipple and tried to drink from it while running back. The result was pure comedy—milk dripped all over her chin and belly, and by the time she reached Cutis, she had already drunk half of it.
Cutis laughed uncontrollably. “Lulu! You’re supposed to bring the milk, not drink it all!”
Bon squeaked proudly, clutching his bottle like a trophy. Lulu, realizing she’d technically lost, crawled into Cutis’s arms for comfort, still licking milk from her hands. Cutis kissed her head. “You’re both winners in my heart.”
The Fourth Trick: Peekaboo with the Blanket 😆
Cutis then pulled out their favorite pink blanket. “All right, let’s play peekaboo!”
Bon knew exactly what to do. He grabbed one corner, hid behind it, and popped out suddenly with a loud squeak—peekaboo! Lulu giggled so hard she rolled onto the floor. Then she grabbed the other corner and did the same, except she popped out from the wrong side and ended up bumping into Bon.
The two of them tumbled together like little balls of fur, wrapping themselves in the blanket until all you could see were two tiny tails sticking out.
Cutis took a picture and smiled. “This one’s going online for sure,” she said. “Everyone will fall in love with you two again.”
The Fifth Trick: The Monkey Kiss 💋
To end the show, Cutis said, “Now, give each other a kiss!”
Bon looked at Lulu, hesitated, and then leaned forward shyly. Lulu, on the other hand, didn’t wait—she grabbed his face with both hands and planted a big kiss right on his nose!
Bon squeaked in surprise, wiped his nose, then giggled and kissed her back. Cutis gasped softly, “Awwww, that’s the cutest thing ever!”
The two monkeys hugged each other afterward, swaying gently. It was a moment of pure sweetness that melted Cutis’s heart.
The Reward Party 🎉
After all the tricks, Cutis brought out a little plate of fruits—mango, watermelon, and grapes. Bon and Lulu sat side by side, munching happily. Every now and then, Lulu would sneak a piece from Bon’s plate, and Bon would give her a playful tap on the head.
Cutis sat nearby, smiling as she watched them. “You two are like children,” she said softly. “Always making my days brighter.”
When they were full, Lulu climbed onto Cutis’s shoulder and nuzzled her cheek, while Bon started clapping his hands—he wanted to do more tricks.
“All right, one last one!” Cutis said. “Show me how you can say goodbye.”
Bon waved his tiny hand in the air, squeaking cheerfully. Lulu copied him but used both hands and even jumped while waving, almost falling over. Cutis caught her again and laughed, “Okay, okay, that’s enough excitement for today!”
