Full stop is short story in Open road. It was written by Alecia McKenzie. The story is told by letters.

Short story telling Carmen and her grandmother. Carmen living in New York with her husband. Carmen woks a doctor in local hospital.
Cramen’s grandmother living in Scotland. Grandmother never use commas and full stop in letters. Grandmother cites every letter about God because she is Christian.

Carmen and her brother Richie are crown up with them grandmother. Carmen and her brother parents were not able to care of them. That’s why Carmen and her grandmother are really close to each other. They write each other quite often.

Carmen send money to her grandmother. Grandmother is writing Carmen that thieves have broken houses in there. That’s why Carmen wants that grandmother put burglar bars the house windows. Grandmother don’t like that idea.

Grandmother wants that Carmen write her mother in England. Carmen doesn’t want to do that but soon she agrees to do that.
She write her mother and get hear that her mother has a cyst in her eye. Her mother also told that she wants to come in New York for the operation. Carmen doesn’t like that idea.

Soon Carmen’s mother arrives to Carmen’s house. Carmen’s mother told her that she and her husband gave Carmen and Richie to their grandmother to short period of time to stay. Because they went to work in England. But the grandmother refused to give them back to their parents.

Grandmother told Carmen that her mother and dad didn’t go England to work. They doesn’t ready to raise Carmen and her brother. That’s why they live with her grandmother.
Carmen believed her grandmother.

I like this short story. But grandmother’s letters is hard to read.
Because commas and full stop missing. Still I like the story.
