Julia’s new Mother

I have a friend. Her names are Julia. When she was 3 years old, her lovely Mother passed away because of train accident.
Of course she was very sad, after her Mother passed away. When she remembered her mom, she always crying even in her school or other room in every places that She visits. But she felt very, very, and very sad if she comes to her mother grave yard. She looks like crazy, she sad because her mother passed away and she is the only daughter that have to bear this sadness.
One week after her mother passed away, Her father get married again with Aunt Cecilia, Her father friend when her father in University. But, her father wrong! It even makes Julia more, more, and more sad, not happy! But, Julia has some idea for make her feeling happy.
She will test Aunt Cecilia patient to prove that Aunt Cecilia can be a good mother for Julia. One day, Julia is playing soccer ball with her father in a dirty ground. Suddenly when Aunt Cecilia is still mopping on the floor, Julia step on the floor to take her drinking with a dirty foot. Julia did this on purpose. Of course the floor becomes dirty because of the footprint of Julia. But Aunt Cecilia did not angry! She just mops it back until the floor became clean again.
Two days later…
“Aunt Cecilia…! Where is my Diary book?” Julia was angry because she can't find her Diary book, after she finished taking a bath.
“I don’t know, Julia..." Aunt Cecilia said patiently. "When you taking a bath, I still make the food and milk for your breakfast, so I don’t know Julia…” said Aunt Cecilia and she is still not angry with Julia.
“You LIE!"
"You take my Diary book from my room when I taking a bath, right?” Julia was angry with a sad sound.
“Did you say Diary book?”
Julia's Father said from the outside of the house after he came from his office.
“Aunt Cecilia is taking my Diary book which it's contain about my memory with my mom and there are my pictures of me and mom, father!”
Julia cried.
“Julia, is this your Diary book?”Ask her Father.
“Yes Father! It’s my Diary book Father, where did you find my Diary book, Father?”Ask Julia wants to know.
“Julia, Aunt Cecilia is not wrong, it’s me who bring your Diary book to my Office. I want to know more about you, did you happy if I married with Aunt Cecilia, your new Mother?” Father explains it, so the problem is no more big, big, and big.
Julia takes her Diary book and goes to her room to think. Suddenly, Julia cries. “How I can not believe my Father! Aunt Cecilia can be a good Mother for me!”
Then, Julia goes to the swimming pool. She wants to talk to Aunt Cecilia. And there is Aunt Cecilia, she was standing next to the swimming pool.
“Aunt Cecilia....., thanks because you was not angry to me for all the thing I have done to you, can you forgive me....?” Julia cries.
“Why not.... For my new children! Aunt Cecilia says it with a happy sound. “Thanks, mom…”Julia says with a serious face to her new mom, Aunt Cecilia. “You welcome, dear!”Answer Julia’s new mom.
Then, suddenly Julia’s father come and push Julia to the swimming pool and her father hug her daughter and his new wife. Then they swimming together in the warm of the evening….
