What might the following description from Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis represent for the Samsa family after Gregor's death?

The cleaner shut the door and opened the window wide. Although it was still early in the morning the fresh air had something of warmth mixed in with it. It was already the end of March, after all.

After the death of Gregor, the Samsa family experienced a sort of freedom and relief. They started to work and live in the way which they used to live earlier. The presence of Gregor had turned the family's condition upside down. The window in Gregor's room has never been opened after he had been transformed into an insect. After his death., it was opened again. The family members felt very relaxed and felt a warmth in the air after his death.
