Q. Imagine that you are Peter Coffin, the owner of the inn. Write a page in yor diary about Ishmael’s first night at the inn and his meeting with Queequeq?

Ans. 

Dear diary,

 It was a very unexpected night yesterday, at the inn. A young boy named Ishmael came in here. He was a tall young boy with brown hairs. He wanted to rent a room but there not available any. He had to share a room with the harpooner Queequeq. When he discovered that his roommate Queequeq was out to sell heads and will come back soon, he got scared. He  didn't want to share a room with Queequeq but he didn't had a choice. Queenqueq arrived at about midnight when Ishmael was already slept. Ishmael woke up with the sound of door opening. As Queequeq have tattoos all over his face. Also he is bald except for  few strands which are twisted upon his forehead. His appearance terrified Ishmael. He thought Quequeq would hurt or kill him. He jumped out of bed but got tripped because of dark all around. he started to shout for help. I ran quickly towards him after hearing the screams. I entered the room and assured Ishmael that Queequeq wouldn't hurt him. Next morning, after breakfast I saw Ishmael and Queequeq sitting together and chatting. They became very good friends . Ishmael felt sorry for judging Queequeq too early.
