Chad had had a hell of a time trying to track her down, first asked her neighbor where Sara might have gone but the old lady didn't seen to know or refused to cooperate. He made sure to give her his number in case she was contacted by Sara, stressing that it was of the utmost importance. He then tried he work once more inquiring if they might know where she was vacationing. He was faced with a dead end there as well.
A few days after visiting Sara's neighbor, he received a phone call. "This is Mrs. Goldstein, you know Sara's neighbor. I'm taking care of her cat. Do you remember me?"
"Yes, of course I remember you," he said a bit impatiently.
"Well, you seemed like such a nice man, I really felt bad about lying to you. You see, I received a postcard from her on that very same day you arrived. I didn't know what to make of you so I thought it would be best not to tell you anything. She's such a nice girl. What's an old lady to think when some strange man comes around? The night after you left, me and Ajax, that's Sara's cat and Artumus my parrot were watching television I said to them, we'll I'll be that that nice young man that came over here to my house. You were in a commercial. I figured if you are on television, then you really can't be all that bad."
Chad let Mrs. Goldstein talk although he wished she would get to the point. "Well, the postcard I received is from Jamaica. Have you ever been there? I hear it's lovely. I think it would be wonderful to be there right now, especially with this lousy weather you know. When I was young----"
"Mrs. Goldstein," he finally interrupted knowing that if he didn't this woman could go on and on. "Does the postcard indicate what part of Jamaica she's in?"
"Oh well, there's a picture of Montego Bay on the front and she does mention in the card, the hotel she's staying at. She says it's quite lovely, but you know when I was young----"
"Excuse me but I would really appreciate if I could have that information," he interrupted once more. After what seemed like forever he was able to extract the from her Sara's whereabouts. "Thank you for your time Mrs. Goldstein but I am in quite a hurry now." He hung up with a quick good-bye.
On the other end of the line Mrs. Goldstein, was quite put out. "Well, I never. He seems much nicer on television," she spoke to Artumus.
