It was a busy morning in the CUTIS house. Mom had just stepped out of the shower, wrapped in her towel, when suddenly — the power went out! The hairdryer stopped mid-blow, and Mom stood there with wet hair, already running late.
“Oh no!” she sighed. “What am I going to do now?”
That’s when Monkey Kaka, always alert and full of surprises, perked up from the corner of the room. She tilted her head, looked at Mom, then at the hairdryer… and scampered off with purpose.
Mom laughed nervously. “Kaka, what are you up to now?”
Just moments later, Kaka returned—dragging a small, battery-powered fan she had seen Dad use during hot days. With impressive focus, she placed it on the table, adjusted the angle, and turned it on. A gentle breeze began to blow toward Mom’s face.
Mom gasped in delight. “Kaka! You clever little monkey!”
Kaka wasn’t done. She picked up a small towel, climbed onto the back of the chair, and carefully patted Mom’s hair with the softest touch—just like she had seen Mom do before.
Mom laughed and teared up all at once. “You really saved the day, didn’t you?”
By the time the power returned, Mom’s hair was already half-dry, thanks to Kaka’s quick thinking and kind little hands. She scooped Kaka up into a big hug and kissed her on the forehead.
That morning turned from stressful to sweet — all because of one smart, loving monkey who knew just how to help.
Kaka proved again: sometimes the smallest hands do the biggest things.
