My flight was canceled, so I came home early. When I opened the door, a woman in my robe smiled and asked, ‘You’re the realtor, right?’ I said yes—and stepped inside, because the truth was already waiting

I was leaving on a business trip when the airline announced the cancellation. Weather. Mechanical issue. No clear answers.

The baiff called the case like he was reading a grocery list, and my sister stood up before the last syllable landed. Not because she was eager to honor my grandfather, because she was eager to claim him.
