It was a heartbreaking morning in the monkey family. A tiny baby monkey, newly abandoned, sat shivering under the big tree, eyes full of confusion and fear. His soft cries echoed around the place, searching for comfort that would not come. Libby, the older mother monkey known for her strong will and strict behavior, noticed the poor baby nearby. At first, it looked like she might help him — but what happened next shocked everyone watching.
Instead of offering warmth, Libby pushed the baby away harshly, making him stumble on the ground. The little one didn’t understand what he did wrong. His weak arms reached toward her, but Libby turned her face aside as if teaching him a lesson he needed to learn. It was a scene that broke a million hearts, leaving everyone wondering: why Libby do like this?
Maybe Libby wanted to show the baby how hard life can be without his real mother. Or maybe, deep inside, she was trying to keep her distance, afraid that if she cared too much, it would hurt more later. The baby’s cries softened into whimpers, and finally he curled into a corner, tired and hopeless.
Later, as the sun went down, Libby sat nearby watching the little one. Her eyes showed a mix of guilt and sadness. Perhaps she regretted what she had done but didn’t know how to fix it. Sometimes, even a mother’s heart gets confused between love and survival. The scene ended with silence — two lonely souls under the fading light, both hurting in their own way. It was not anger that made Libby act that way, but a painful, misunderstood love.
