Chapter Text
Hey Parrot Finder,
Hello! You can call me Khaliq! I’m 12 years old, I like coconut water – I buy a truckload of coconuts whenever I can – and I’m from the Scalding Sands! Khaliq isn’t my real name, by the way, but I was told to not tell my penpal my real name, so I hope this doesn’t bother you? And, right, you’re supposed to be my penpal from now on! My doctor said to practice writing so I can recover faster, so I decided to write this letter to someone so I don’t get bored!
It’s a little lonely being cooped up in my room all the time, so I really hope you write back to me soon! It doesn’t matter how long you reply, I don’t know how long my recovery will take, anyway! I honestly feel a bit sad because just the other day I was playing with my siblings, but then all of a sudden I’m here again… I’m sure it would be better to just get used to it and be prepared too, like my Papa said, but I don’t want to get used to feeling sad, you know?
Anyway, I hope my parrot arrived there safely! And I hope you take care of him well! He isn’t a picky eater and he likes eating seeds, nuts and all that, so he won’t be much trouble for you! Please show him around your place too! It’s his chance to enjoy his freedom!
Okay, now, my friend – let’s call him Jimell – once told me that I should ask a penpal some questions before my letter ends, so yes! Here are my questions: What’s your favorite animal? Do you like spending time outside or inside? Are you a night owl or an early bird (this sounds so funny)? What makes you happy? What makes you not happy? Can you speak other languages? What do you wish you knew how to do?
That is all for now, penpal! I have a lot more questions but I don't wanna shock you or anything! I’m looking forward to your letter!
