Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She lived in a small house with her mom, dad, and baby brother. Lily's room was upstairs. She loved playing with her toys and reading books in her room.
One day, Lily's mom made a bitter lemon cake. Lily did not like the taste. "Mom, I don't like this cake. It's bitter," said Lily. Her mom smiled and said, "That's okay, Lily. You can try a different cake next time."
Later, Lily wanted to play upstairs, but she was scared to go alone. She asked her dad, "Dad, can you come upstairs with me?" Her dad said, "You can trust me, Lily. I will be right here downstairs. If you need me, just call my name, and I will come to help you."
Lily went upstairs and played with her toys. She knew she could trust her dad to be there if she needed him. She had a fun time playing and soon forgot about the bitter lemon cake. And from that day on, Lily felt braver going upstairs by herself, knowing her family was always there to help her.
