Grandma’s List

Fatima was tired of people treating her like a child. Determined to prove her worth, she sets off to complete the tasks on Grandma’s to-do list. She resists all distractions. However, when she reaches her first destination, she realizes she has lost the list. Fatima is certain she remembers everything on the list and doles out instructions to her family accordingly. But as the family sits down to dinner, they slowly realize that, perhaps, Fatima didn’t remember quite as well as she had thought.
