Early one sunny morning, CUTIS tiptoed through the house with a mischievous sparkle in his eyes. Dad was still asleep, the baby monkey was snuggled in his blanket, and the whole house was quietāperfect for CUTISās āsecret mission.ā He had decided, for some unimaginable reason, to gather EVERYTHING he could find and secretly sell it at the market.
First, he grabbed Dadās old sandals. āHe doesnāt need these⦠he has new ones,ā CUTIS whispered to himself proudly. Next, he took Momās cooking spoon, a pillow, a hairbrush, and even the baby monkeyās banana toy. Each item went straight into his large basket, which was now so full he could barely lift it.
CUTIS peeked around the room again. āHmm⦠what else can be sold?ā He spotted the TV remote sticking out from the couch. With a quick swipeāshoop!āit disappeared into the basket too. The baby monkey woke up and stared in confusion. āCUTIS⦠what are you doing?ā he squeaked.
CUTIS put a finger to his lips. āShhh. Secret business!ā
The baby monkey, curious and excited, joined the mission. Together they sneaked around, collecting little thingsāsocks, toys, scissors, cups, even Dadās favorite hatāuntil the basket was overflowing.
With great effort, CUTIS dragged the wobbling basket toward the door. But just as he was about to escape, Dad walked out and froze. His eyes widened. āCUTIS!! Why is half the house in that basket?!ā
CUTIS gave the biggest innocent smile and pointed at a tiny sign he made: āFor Sale ā Help Buy Snacks!ā
Dad burst into laughter. The scene was so unbelievable and so funny that he couldnāt even be angry. CUTIS only wanted snacksābut he almost sold the whole house to get them!
