THE REAL ESTATE business wasn’t feeling quite right to Bernice either. Just as she pulled up in front of Tyler and Sons Realty, she saw the owner, Albert Tyler, locking up the place and getting ready to leave.

She rolled down her car window and asked him, “Say, aren’t you supposed to be open until 5?”

Tyler only smiled and shrugged. “Not on Thursdays.”

Bernice could read the hours on the front door. “But your hours say Monday through Friday, 10 to 5.”

Tyler got just a little cross. “Not on Thursdays, I said!”

Bernice noticed Tyler’s son Calvin driving his Volkswagen out from behind the building. She got out of her car and waved him down. Unwillingly, he paused and rolled down his window.

“Yeah?” he said.

“Aren’t you people usually open on Thursday until 5?”

Calvin only shrugged and made a face. “What do I know? The old man says go home, we all go home.”

He drove off. “Old man” Tyler was getting into his Plymouth. Bernice ran up to the car and waved to get his attention.

He was really miffed by now. He rolled down his window and said gruffly, “Lady, we’re closed and I have to get home!”

“I just wanted to look through your microfiche. I need some information on some property.”

He shook his head. “Hey, I can’t help you anyway. Our microfiche is broken down.”

“Wha …?”

But Tyler rolled up his window and pulled away, screeching his tires a little.

Bernice shouted angrily after him, “Did Rosemary tip you off?”

She hurried to her car. There was still the Top of the Town Realty. She knew the owner regularly helped out with youth baseball on Thursday afternoons. Maybe the other gal who worked there wouldn’t know who she was.
