It was a peaceful afternoon at home when Mom sat in the garden, gently brushing Bon the dog’s fur. The golden sunlight glowed warmly around them, and Bon lay quietly, enjoying every stroke of love from Mom’s hands. But not far away, someone was watching with wide, curious eyes—Lala!
Lala, the sweet little monkey, had been playing with her toys when she noticed Mom giving all her attention to Bon. She tilted her head, her lips pouted, and her big eyes blinked with surprise. “Why is Mom petting Bon so much?” she seemed to think. Slowly, she put down her toy and crept closer, peeking from behind a flower pot with a tiny jealous frown.
When Mom gave Bon a treat, Lala couldn’t take it anymore! She walked right up to Mom and sat beside her, crossing her little arms and making the funniest pouty face. Mom couldn’t help but laugh. “Oh, Lala, are you jealous?” she asked lovingly. Lala didn’t answer—she just gently pushed Bon aside and rested her head on Mom’s lap as if to say, “It’s my turn now!”
Bon, being the gentle dog he was, wagged his tail and gave Lala a friendly lick on the hand. That made Lala giggle, her jealous look melting into laughter. Mom smiled warmly and started petting both of them, one hand on Lala’s soft fur, the other on Bon’s back.
The three of them sat together under the shade, surrounded by warmth and affection. Lala leaned happily against Mom, occasionally glancing at Bon to make sure she wasn’t forgotten.
By evening, they were all cuddled up on the porch—Mom in the middle, Bon lying by her feet, and Lala snuggled close in her arms. The jealousy was gone, replaced by a sweet sense of togetherness.
That day, Lala learned that Mom’s love wasn’t divided—it only grew bigger when shared. What began as a tiny moment of envy turned into a heartwarming memory full of laughter, love, and the cutest jealous expressions ever!
