    In a cozy home nestled amidst a lush green garden, a little girl named Bella was sitting on the floor, playing with two bright red apples. She was absorbed in her play, examining the apples with her tiny hands and a curious gaze.

    Just then, her mother, Emily, entered the room. Seeing her daughter engrossed with the apples, she couldn't help but smile at the adorable sight. She decided to ask Bella for an apple.

    "Honey, could you give mummy an apple?" Emily asked, extending her hand towards Bella. Bella looked up at her mother, her blue eyes filled with confusion. She then looked at the apples in her hands, her tiny brow furrowed in thought.

    After a moment of contemplation, Bella took a small bite from the apple in her right hand. She then repeated the action with the apple in her left hand. Emily watched this, her smile faltering slightly.

    It seemed like Bella had misunderstood her mother's request. Emily didn't want to upset her daughter, so she tried to maintain her smile, though it was a bit forced now.

    However, Bella's next action took Emily by surprise. The little girl held up the apple from her right hand towards her mother. Her face was glowing with a cheerful smile as she said, "This apple is for mommy, it's sweeter!"
