Letter to Santa (English Version)

Summary:

A very young Peter Parker is about to experience his first Christmas without his parents. So he writes a letter to Santa.

This is the English version of a Tagalog fic I wrote. I know it's the wrong season for this kind of story, but I don't really care.

Notes:

A translation of my second ever Filipino fanfic! I originally wrote it in Tagalog and then translated it to English...which means that it isn't that well written of a fic. But by making this fic in the POV of a very young (I'm imagining 4-5 year old-ish) genius Peter Parker, I think the grammar mistakes can be thought of as a young child making typical errors in his writing.

Work Text:

Dear Santa,

How are you? I am good.

Aunt May says that you give gifts for good children and Uncle Ben says I am good. So you should give me a gift, right?

My mom and dad are gone. Uncle Ben says they can't go home. They are in heaven. Aunt May says you can't bring them back.

But… I already got their Christmas presents. Mom’s gift was a macaroni frame and Dad's was a tie-dye T-shirt. I made them myself!

I want to give them to mama and papa. But, I can't. Can you do it? And please let them know I love them.

I love you too, Santa.

- Peter Parker
