Monkey Bibi woke up early that morning to find the house unusually quiet. Sunlight streamed gently through the window, lighting up tiny dust particles floating in the air. When he stepped into the living room, he saw Dad standing in the middle of the room, looking around at the mess with a tired smile. Toys were scattered everywhere, cushions were out of place, and footprints covered the shiny floor. Without being asked, Bibi knew exactly what to do.
With a cheerful chirp, Bibi hurried to grab a small cloth and began wiping the table. His tiny hands moved carefully, copying every motion Dad made. Sometimes he wiped the same spot again and again, determined to make it sparkle. Dad couldn’t help but laugh, gently guiding Bibi to the next task. Together, they worked side by side, turning chores into a fun game.
Bibi then noticed the broom leaning against the wall. He dragged it across the floor, sweeping up bits of paper and dust. Though the broom was almost as tall as he was, Bibi didn’t give up. He pushed and pulled with all his strength, occasionally slipping but quickly getting back up. Each small success filled him with pride, and his bright eyes sparkled with excitement.
In the kitchen, Bibi carefully lined up the cups and bowls after Dad washed them. He placed each item gently, sometimes pausing to admire his work. When he accidentally knocked one over, he froze in surprise, then quickly picked it up and set it straight, glancing at Dad for approval. Dad responded with a warm smile and a gentle pat, encouraging him to keep going.
By the time the house was clean, the room felt lighter, filled not just with freshness but also with love. Bibi climbed onto Dad’s lap, tired yet happy, and rested his head against his chest. Dad hugged him close, grateful for the unexpected help and the precious time they had shared.
These simple moments of teamwork turned an ordinary cleaning day into a memory full of warmth. Monkey Bibi’s sweet effort showed that even the smallest hands can make the biggest difference, especially when love leads the way.
