The house was unusually quiet when CUTIS noticed the baby stirring in the crib. Mom had stepped away for a short while, trusting that everything would be fine. CUTIS glanced at the baby monkey beside him, and in that moment, the two exchanged a serious look. They had a mission now: take care of the baby all by themselves.
Baby Monkey climbed onto a chair to get a better view, tilting her head with curiosity. The baby let out a soft cry, and CUTIS immediately went into action. He gently rocked the crib, copying what he had seen Mom do many times before. It wasn’t perfect, but it was thoughtful. Meanwhile, Baby Monkey gathered the baby’s favorite toy and placed it carefully within reach, proud of her contribution.
When the baby cried again, CUTIS came up with a new idea. He hummed a quiet tune, slow and steady, hoping it would help. Baby Monkey joined in, tapping softly on the crib like a lullaby drum. The strange but sweet combination actually worked. The baby’s cries faded into curious coos, eyes wide and calm.
Next came feeding time—or at least their version of it. CUTIS warmed the bottle just enough and carefully tested it, making sure it was safe. Baby Monkey stood guard, watching closely as if she were the official supervisor. When the baby finished, she clapped her tiny hands in excitement, feeling proud and important.
As time passed, the baby grew sleepy again. CUTIS wrapped a soft blanket around the crib while Baby Monkey adjusted it gently, copying Mom’s careful movements. The room filled with warmth and quiet confidence. They had done it—together.
When Mom returned, she froze at the doorway, watching the peaceful scene. CUTIS and Baby Monkey stood proudly beside the sleeping baby, waiting for approval. Mom smiled, touched by their teamwork and love.
That day, CUTIS and Baby Monkey proved that care doesn’t always come from experience. Sometimes, it comes from creativity, teamwork, and hearts big enough to protect someone smaller than yourself.
