Even After Death Novel (Olivia)

Olivia patted Connor on the head lovingly.

"My dear boy, I understand how you feel, but we don't always get what we want. It's not wrong of you to want your family to be together. But have you ever considered whether Mom and Dad would be happy together?”

Connor looked at her with teary eyes. It was clear he hadn't thought about that.

Olivia patiently explained, "I felt the same way asa child. I wanted my family to be together too. Back then, your grandmother didn't love your grandfather at all.

"She treated me and your grandfather with indifference every day. Do you know what happens when a person is unhappy every day? She would become depressed and angry. She would spread negative emotions to everyone around her. Have you ever had a pet bird?”

"No, but I have a cat. Dad gave it to me. He said that you love cats."

"Birds and cats are different. A cat can run around the house freely, but a bird is trapped inside a cage. It can only look at the sky from within the cage.

"The sky is just beyond the cage, but the bird can never reach it. If you love the bird and feed it the best food every day, do you think it'll be happy?”
