Newborn A Tong had just entered the world, tiny, fragile, and full of innocence. His eyes were still learning to open, blinking softly as he tried to understand the warm, bright world around him. Even though he was so small, one thing quickly captured his attention—TanTan, the gentle and handsome big brother who stood close by, watching him with calm, protective eyes.
TanTan had always been known for his calm and caring nature, but the moment A Tong arrived, something even softer bloomed in his heart. He approached slowly, almost silently, not wanting to startle the newborn. A Tong, sensing a warm presence, turned his little head toward TanTan, his tiny eyes blinking with curiosity. The way A Tong gazed at TanTan was full of admiration, like he already recognized someone important, someone safe.
TanTan leaned in gently, giving a soft sniff on A Tong’s forehead. His expression showed tenderness and pride, as if he was already accepting the role of a big brother. A Tong responded by stretching out his tiny fingers, almost trying to touch TanTan’s fur. That little gesture made TanTan freeze for a second, surprised yet touched. He lowered his head even more, allowing A Tong to feel him.
As the caretaker wrapped A Tong in a warm cloth, TanTan stayed right beside him. Whenever A Tong made a soft cry or tiny squeak, TanTan’s eyes widened, and he moved closer, trying to understand and comfort him. It was amazing to see how quickly A Tong bonded with TanTan. Even though he was only a newborn, he looked at TanTan with trust and admiration, as if TanTan was the first friend he ever knew.
The other monkeys glanced over, curious, but TanTan stayed focused on the little brother he admired. A Tong slowly relaxed, breathing peacefully as he drifted to sleep, still facing TanTan’s direction. Watching the newborn rest so calmly made TanTan’s heart melt even more.
Their gentle interaction was a heart-touching moment—a newborn admiring his big brother, and TanTan already showing love, patience, and protection. It was the beginning of a beautiful bond that would grow stronger every day.
