Answer:
 She was hoping that the guy would appear at the funeral again.

If you answered this correctly , you think like a psychopath . This
was a test by a famous American Psychologist used to test if one has
the same mentality as a killer. Many arrested serial killers took part
in the test and answered the question correctly. If you didn't answer
the question correctly, good for you.
