Note 17
Anakin,
Even though I was mad that you left, I do care about you Anakin. You were a good slave, and I'm going to miss your work. If it pleases you, I would like you to send me a letter every once in a while to hear how you are doing. You will still make me proud if you are not my property anymore, because I can think, "that boy was once my slave."
I'm not sure what that Jedi, or whatever he is, is planning on doing with you. A 9 year old boy can't do much on his own in this galaxy, you know.
If you choose not to write me anymore, I ask that you at least write me back one more time. (And let me know whether or not you want to keep up a regular correspondence.)
Do you think you're going to become a Jedi? How is a former slave going to become a Jedi? You're good, there's no doubt thereā¦but I do not know if you have what it takes to become a Jedi Knight. I have also heard it said that the Jedi only take infants to train. They are not likely to take a 9, almost 10, year old boy on. I don't want to dash your hopes, boy, but I am telling you what I know. That Jedi must have cheated you!
Do not worry about your mother, kid. I will treat her the same way I always have. If she is not doing her fair share of the work, I will beat her as I have in the past, but I will not hurt her anymore than she deserves.
And if you are thinking about coming back and freeing your mother, you should know a few things. That's going to be pretty near impossible, kid. If you become a Jedi Knight you would not be able to come back to Tatooine. You would have a Jedi Master, and I do not think the Council would give a care about your mother, and you would have to do what they say. Also, you would be powerless to free your mother. Tatooine is a Maurder world, not a Republic one.
Ew, boy, I'm REALLY scared of Qui-Gon. Sure, he cost me my best slave, but he would not bring me harm. Jedi are not supposed to get angry or attack.
Sure you didn't know anything about Qui-Gon freeing you.
Watto
