Lala Felt Happy and Satisfied with CEO Kien’s Comfort!

It had been a long day. The sun was beginning to set, casting golden rays across the courtyard of the center where Lala stayed with the children. The playful chatter of kids slowly turned into soft giggles as they wound down from their energetic games. Lala, the beloved monkey of the household, sat quietly near the flower beds, her big round eyes following the kids as they started getting ready for dinner.

But today, something felt different.

For the past few days, Lala had been feeling out of place. She loved the children dearly, and they adored her back. But recently, CEO Kien, the man who had taken Lala in and provided her a home, had seemed distant. He was busy, constantly in meetings, and often away. Lala would wait by the door, hoping he’d return early, maybe pick her up, talk to her softly, or just smile like he used to. But nothing happened.

Until today.

Earlier in the afternoon, Lala had wandered around the garden alone, dragging her favorite soft blanket with her. She looked a bit gloomy, unlike her usual cheeky self. The staff noticed it. Even the children asked, “Why does Lala look so sad today?”

CEO Kien, who had just returned from a full-day business trip, heard the question. He paused, took a deep breath, and looked over at Lala. At that moment, he realized how much he had missed her – and how much she needed his attention.

Without a word, he walked straight toward her. Lala looked up, her eyes meeting his. For a split second, she froze — unsure if he was really walking to her. Then, as if her heart couldn’t wait anymore, she dropped her blanket and ran toward him.

He bent down, arms open, and scooped her up with a soft chuckle.

“There you are, little one,” he said gently, brushing his fingers over her soft fur. “I’ve missed you.”

Lala pressed her cheek to his chest and let out a soft, contented chirp. That small gesture, full of love and longing, melted Kien’s heart. He hadn’t realized how much his presence meant to her.

He didn’t put her down. Instead, he carried her to the shaded swing under the old mango tree. It had always been her favorite spot. He sat down with her in his lap and began rocking gently, his arms around her, whispering softly.

“I’m sorry, Lala. I’ve been too busy lately, haven’t I?”

Lala looked up, blinked slowly, and touched his cheek with her tiny hand, as if forgiving him already.

CEO Kien pulled out a small snack from his pocket — roasted peanuts and a slice of mango — her absolute favorite. Her eyes widened in joy, and she immediately nibbled on them while still sitting cozily in his arms.

As the warm breeze blew through the trees, something beautiful unfolded. It wasn’t just a moment between a man and a monkey. It was a moment of true connection, trust, and comfort.

CEO Kien spoke softly, as if telling a secret, “You know, Lala, no meeting, no business deal, nothing in this world is more important than you and these kids. You remind me what really matters.”

Lala finished her snack and snuggled closer, letting out a soft coo. It was her way of saying “I understand.”

The other staff members, watching from a distance, smiled warmly. Some even teared up. They knew how hard CEO Kien worked. But they also knew how much Lala meant to him. She wasn’t just a pet or a mascot. She was part of the family — maybe the heart of it.

As the stars started to twinkle above, CEO Kien carried Lala back inside. He prepared a soft bed for her next to the kids’ sleeping area. Lala, happy and full, curled up in the soft blankets and looked up at him with sparkling eyes.

“You sleep well tonight, sweet girl,” he whispered, gently patting her head.

But before he could leave, Lala reached out and grabbed his finger — holding it gently. He smiled and sat down beside her until she drifted off to sleep.

That night, Lala slept the most peaceful sleep she’d had in weeks. She felt warm, loved, and truly comforted. She no longer worried if she was being left out. CEO Kien had reminded her, not just with words but with actions, that she was important, cherished, and never forgotten.

The next morning, Lala woke up before the children. She quietly tiptoed over to CEO Kien’s office and peeked in. He was already at his desk, working on his laptop. When he saw her, his face lit up.

“Good morning, princess,” he said.

Lala leapt into his lap and nuzzled into his chest.

From that day on, Kien made it a point to spend quality time with Lala daily — even if it was just five minutes. Whether it was sharing snacks, brushing her fur, or simply sitting together in silence, those small moments made a world of difference.

And Lala? She transformed.

She became more playful, more affectionate, and more confident. The other children noticed her energy returning. She danced again, made mischief again, and even tried to “help” the staff by imitating their actions — which usually ended in laughter and hugs.

But above all, her bond with CEO Kien deepened.

It was a gentle reminder to everyone: comfort doesn’t always come in grand gestures. Sometimes, all it takes is showing up, being present, and offering a quiet hug when it’s needed the most.

Lala’s heart, once heavy with loneliness, now beat with joy and peace. She had everything she needed — love, attention, and the warm comfort of someone who truly cared.

And so, the title of this story became more than just words —
Lala felt happy and satisfied with CEO Kien’s comfort.
Because she truly was.
