In the peaceful corner of the monkey family’s home, baby Albert sat like a little statue, completely still, as if the whole world had pressed the pause button just for him. His mommy gently approached, her eyes full of tenderness and love. She had decided it was time for a special grooming session — one that every monkey knows is not only for cleanliness but also for bonding.
Albert, usually a bundle of playful energy, suddenly transformed into the calmest baby in the troop. His tiny hands rested on his lap, his eyes half-closed, and his tail curled neatly beside him. Mommy began by carefully parting the soft fur on his head, searching for tiny specks of dirt or pests. Each movement was slow and precise, like a loving artist working on her masterpiece.
Occasionally, Mommy paused to nibble gently at a stubborn spot or smooth down an unruly tuft of fur. Albert didn’t flinch — he didn’t even blink much. It was as if he had entered a magical spa zone where all worries melted away. His little lips curled into what looked like a shy smile, clearly enjoying every moment.
The rest of the troop watched with curiosity. Some older monkeys chuckled quietly at how perfectly still Albert stayed, almost as if he feared moving might end this royal treatment. His mommy, pleased with his cooperation, worked her way down his back and around his tiny arms, making sure he was spotless and comfortable.
By the end of the grooming, Albert looked fresh, fluffy, and more adorable than ever. But the funniest part? He remained frozen in that same relaxed pose for a few extra moments, as though waiting for more. Mommy gave him a final pat, and Albert’s eyes sparkled — pure, contented bliss.
