I just have had a little more freedom away from mom and soon I discover other chimps like me. I totter over to Congo another five month old but much larger me. He grunts and goes back to eating. I keep standing there and finally he gets and walks toward me this time. "Hi, what do you want?" He asks.
"To play!" I say in a squeaky voice.
"Okay why didn't you say so!" His serious face lights up. Soon enough we are tossing around and climbing saplings. when we turn 6 months we are best friends.
