Under the tall forest trees, Queen Mom Tara was known as a strong and respected leader. Her sharp eyes and firm movements kept the troop safe from danger. But on this heavy morning, something felt wrong. Little Baby Tia, small and soft with innocent eyes, followed her mother closely, hoping for warmth and comfort. Instead, Tara’s mood was dark, and her patience had vanished.
Baby Tia reached out with tiny hands, trying to cling to her mother’s fur. She made soft cries, asking for milk, asking for love. But Queen Mom Tara turned suddenly, anger flashing across her face. In a harsh moment, she grabbed Baby Tia by the tail. The poor baby was dragged, her small body touching the ground, leaves and dust sticking to her fur. Tia cried loudly, her voice full of fear and confusion, not understanding why her own mother treated her this way.
The forest seemed to fall silent. Other monkeys watched from nearby branches, unsure whether to intervene. Baby Tia struggled, trying to stand, her little legs shaking. Even in pain, she kept looking at her mother, hoping Tara would stop and pull her close instead. That hope made the scene even more heartbreaking.
Yet, nature is often cruel in its lessons. Queen Mom Tara’s rough actions were part of a harsh teaching, forcing Baby Tia to become stronger and more independent. After dragging her a short distance, Tara finally released her. She paused, glanced back, and climbed onto a branch above. Baby Tia slowly stood up, trembling but alive.
Though mistreated and frightened, Baby Tia did not give up. She climbed after her mother, proving her courage despite the pain. In that moment, the forest witnessed a sad but powerful truth: even under anger and hardship, a baby’s love and instinct to survive remain unbroken.
