It was a peaceful morning in the house—birds chirping, sunlight streaming through the window, and everyone still half-asleep. Everyone except one mischievous monkey—Cubis! While Dad and Luk were still dozing, Cubis tiptoed out of bed, holding his tiny cup, a spoon, and a secret mission in mind: to sneak out for his favorite morning treat—coffee!
Cubis had recently developed a strange obsession with the rich aroma of Dad’s coffee. He would always watch from the corner when Dad brewed it, sniffing the air and looking absolutely mesmerized. Today, he decided he could no longer resist the temptation. Quietly, he climbed onto the counter, reached for the sugar jar, and started stirring his own “perfect” cup of coffee.
But Cubis didn’t know that Luk, ever the curious one, had woken up early too. Luk noticed the sound of clinking spoons and peeked through the doorway. His eyes widened—there was Cubis, sitting cross-legged on a stool, sipping coffee like a human businessman! He even blew on the cup before each sip, pretending to be sophisticated.
Luk burst out laughing so loudly that Cubis nearly spilled his drink. “Cubis! What are you doing?!” Luk shouted between laughs. Cubis froze, guilty eyes wide open, and quickly tried to hide the mug behind his tail. But the coffee dripped onto the counter, giving him away completely.
Dad soon walked in, confused by the commotion, only to find Cubis sitting there with a coffee mustache and an expression that screamed, “I’ve been caught!” Luk couldn’t stop laughing while Dad pretended to scold, though even he couldn’t hide his smile.
From that day on, Cubis earned a new nickname: “Mr. Coffee.” Every morning, Luk teases him by offering an empty cup, saying, “Want some coffee, Mr. Coffee?” Cubis just crosses his arms, pretending to be serious—but everyone knows he’s secretly planning his next caffeine adventure!
What a hilarious morning indeed—one that will be remembered (and laughed about) for a long time!
