Diem Cried When Dad Teased Her, Not Letting Her Visit Monkey Kaka
Diem had been looking forward to this day for so long. She had been talking about visiting Monkey Kaka all week, even counting down the days. Ever since their last visit, she missed Kaka so much and couldn’t wait to see him again. But just as she was getting ready to leave, her dad decided to play a little joke on her.
“Diem, I don’t think we’re going to visit Monkey Kaka today,” her dad said with a straight face.
Diem’s eyes widened in disbelief. “What? Why, Dad? You promised!” she protested, clutching her small backpack tightly.
Her dad tried to hold back a chuckle. “Well… Kaka might be too busy today. Maybe he’s sleeping, or maybe he doesn’t want visitors,” he said, teasingly.
The little girl’s lips trembled as she processed his words. “No! Kaka is waiting for me!” she insisted, her voice getting shaky.
Seeing that her dad wasn’t immediately saying it was a joke, Diem’s heart filled with sadness. She truly believed she wouldn’t get to see her beloved Monkey Kaka. Tears welled up in her big eyes, and before she could stop herself, she let out a soft sob.
“But, Daddy… I want to see Kaka,” she cried, wiping her eyes with the back of her hand.
Her dad immediately felt guilty. He never meant to make her that upset! He quickly knelt down and patted her head. “Oh no, sweetheart, don’t cry! I was just teasing you. Of course, we’re going to see Kaka!”
Diem sniffled, looking up at her dad. “Really?” she asked, hope shining through her tears.
“Really!” he reassured her with a big smile. “Come on, let’s go before Kaka starts wondering where you are.”
Just like that, Diem’s tears disappeared, replaced by the biggest grin. She wiped her face, grabbed her dad’s hand, and ran toward the door, excitement bubbling in her chest.
As they drove to visit Monkey Kaka, Diem couldn’t stop smiling. Her dad might have teased her, but in the end, he kept his promise. And soon, she would finally be reunited with her favorite furry friend!
