In the short story “Deported at Breakfast” many reviewers talk about the courage the main character has to take over a diner that was never his. There has to be more to this kind hearted individual to take on such a large responsibility by choice, but we never find out what actually happens at the end of the story. Fondation keeps the reader wondering by ending the story without a conclusion to the story. He writes, “With this kind of business, I couldn’t understand why Javier hadn’t hired a waitress. Maybe I’d take out a help-wanted as in the paper tomorrow. I had never been in the restaurant business. There was no way I could run this place alone.” (209) As the main character has no idea what he is in for, the author makes it known that they are invested in this place and they want to move forward in running this business. This is a big responsibility for the main character and it shows the kind of responsibility they are ready for. Fondation does a great job leaving the reader to wonder what happened to the diner.I myself would love to visit this diner or find out what happened to it after that
