Julia

In the kitchen she met her mother who was just about to bake a delicious fruit cake. Her mother greeted Ann with a quick hug, then went back to the dough. Without looking up she said: "A Mrs. Ludif called earlier. She said that you would have offered to work as a gardener with her. Is that true?" "Don't you think it's getting a bit long? At least you still have that summer job at" LittleSpring ". Then you hardly have any free time." "Yes, I have I don't need to do that much to look after the garden day after day. ", Ann replied with a smile.Her mother admitted defeat: "Well, if you think you can do it. But don't say later I didn't warn you!"
Ann left the kitchen to quickly change into her room. After she finished she made her way to Mrs. Ludif's house. There she was greeted by the poodle, fluffing her tail. Ann stroked him briefly and then went into the garden to see what she had to do. She soon saw that she absolutely had to mow the lawn and therefore got the lawn mower from a shed that was surrounded by a few large fruit trees.
After the lawn was mowed, she set about collecting the dead flowers, branches and leaves and throwing them away. When Ann had finished, she sprayed the lawn with the garden hose and then went to Mrs. Ludif to tell her that she was ready for today.
Ann found Mrs. Ludif sitting on the couch in the living room. She had put her head in her hands and closed her eyes.Ann could hear a faint sob from her, but otherwise everything was quiet. She asked with a trembling voice: "Are you okay, Mrs. Ludif?" "Hm?", Mrs. Ludif started up and looked at Ann as if she had completely forgotten that there were other people on this planet. She shook her head slightly as if she was trying to get water out of her ears and then said with one of her rare smiles: "Could you get me a glass of tap water from the kitchen?" "Of course," Ann said and went to get what I wanted . When she came back she noticed Mrs. Ludif staring thoughtfully at the ceiling. "Here you go," said Ann and put the water glass on the small wooden table in front of Frau Ludif. Frau Ludif and took the glass in hand, but did not drink. She said without looking at Ann: "Would you be so nice and sit down with me for a moment. I want to tell you something. A piece of news that I don't know if it's good or bad for me. I want to tell someone right now." I have no one I trust more than you.I don't trust any of my children because they are all greedy for money and therefore after my money. But it's not you and that's why I would like to tell you. "Ann didn't know for a moment what to say. Obviously something either very great or very bad had happened. She was curious and at the same time very touched that Frau Ludif thought so much of her. And yet it also scared her a bit that this old one Frau trusted her more than her own children. After all, it was her family! She swallowed and finally said, "Sure. I will listen to you. "She sat down in a comfortable armchair across from Mrs. Ludif.
Mrs. Ludif no longer stared into the air but at the water glass that she kept turning in her hands, which were covered with age spots. She began to say in a low voice: "You know I have two daughters. One, Julia, was always my favorite child. She was nice, polite, calm and never did anything bad.Not like her older brother and younger sister. These two tried at every opportunity to pull the money out of my pocket and didn't even shy away from killing their own mother. But I thwarted them by removing them from my will. Since then, they just ignore me, which I prefer. In any case, my daughter Julia never did that, she was far too ambitious and wanted to earn her own money. That's what I liked most about her. She died yesterday. "Mrs. Ludif paused and a tear flowed down her cheek. Ann didn't know how to react, but a decision was made for her because Mrs. Ludif wiped away the tears energetically and continued to say in a somewhat stronger voice:" Anyway, it is very sad. Julia had two sons, the father died years ago in a car accident. In Julia's will it says that I should take over the guardianship for both of them, but I'm far too old!Besides, what should they do with me. I'm a boring old woman whose only hobby is her dog. What do you think? "She looked at Ann questioningly. Ann thought for a moment:" I don't think you're boring. They'll definitely like it here once they've lived here for a while. In addition, it was her daughter's wish and she must have thought something about why she sent her two sons to them. "" Yes, I think so too. How old are you actually? "The question came so surprising that Ann was completely amazed for a moment and then said:" I'm 15. "" Ah then Yuki is older than you and Kuichi is the same age as you. ", Said Ms. Ludif what language do their names come from? ", Ann asked, who had never heard of these names before." They are Japanese names, since her father was Japanese Julia likes this culture very much ... liked this. ", Mrs. Ludif answered quietly.
Ann felt that Mrs. Ludif would rather be alone and said goodbye on the grounds that she had to cook the meal tonight and wanted to start a little earlier.Mrs. Ludif did not try to encourage her to stay, but simply said that tomorrow the rose hedge would have to be cut.
Back at home, Ann helped her mother prepare food in the kitchen, because she felt she had to do what she said she had to do. Her mother was happy about the extra help. The meal was fried fish with fresh potato salad. When Ann's father came home, the three of them started to eat. Her father told Ann and her mother about his work at the local hospital and that an old man had died of heart failure there today. After this remark, Ann was no longer hungry, which her father and mother could not understand. The two had learned to live with death, since Ann's father was confronted with it almost every day in the hospital. But for Ann it was still a bit strange when she imagined that there was one less person in the world now. One less family member who was loved by someone, one less person who would have loved to go on living.At some point she would have to die too. At the latest with this thought her stomach became very queasy and she was nothing more for the rest of the evening.
