There have been rumours that Ocyras has a long lost brother named Johnny. The rumours all started during the same writing assignment (you can read about that here). The other pair of letters that were written, from me to the imaginary pen pal, were to Johnny. I didn't expect anything of these letters, but they became a little bit of a story too. So, out of the kindness of my heart I decided to share this wonderful story with you.
Here is the first letter written, from me to Johnny:
Dear Johnny,
How's life in Vancouver? I'm doing fine here. Mostly what I do in my spare time is make websites on the computer and program stuff. I also play Nintendo DS and Wii.
I do pretty well in school, but it's so boring that there are no words to describe it, especially Science, Geography, History, and French.
The weather here is getting a lot warmer, because we even had a couple of days that felt like summer! Today, it's a bit colder, though. I hope it gets warm again soon!
I mentioned before that I like to make websites. Do you like making websites? Or any type of programming? Well, as you can see, I'm kind of obsessed with that kind of thing. I also like making computer games.
Your friend,

Yeah, I know that letter was really boring. If you're wondering, it received a B. Now things start to take it up a notch. Or whatever.
Here is the letter the guy who made Ocyras' name wrote back to me with (pretending to be Johnny).
Dear (name deleted),
My life in Vancouver isn't very good. Both of my parents died while jumping in a volcano on their vacation in Hawaii. I live now with my old grandma who lost both legs and an arm due to getting chopped in half by a helicopter, so I can't afford a computer to do all the game programming stuff. I play Gameboy Color with my little sister.
I don't go to school anymore, because it blew up, so we just don't go to school. The subject I hate is English. I prefer to speak Pakistani.
The weather here is about the same as yours, we have very fun summers.
Your friend,
Johnny
This is the weirdest letter I have ever read, but that's what makes it funny. Anyway, this letter received a C+. Thank you for reading this whole story (if you even did). If you didn't get it, you might want to read The Ocyras Story first. And maybe later you can read Ocyras' Name if you want.
