Chương 304: Boat and the Riverman

As happy as Julie was to be able to meet her mother here, in the afterlife, at the same time she felt the pain and anguish of not being able to stay next to Roman. Heaven was supposed to be a place where one forgot about their pain, and lived happily. So why wasn't she able to feel happy? 

Did it mean she still had a chance at going back and seeing Roman? Or was it just how this place was supposed to be? 

She continued to walk in the meadow with her mother, and her mother sensing Julie's silence, asked, "What's on your mind?"
