    One sunny day, a young boy named Jamal was helping his mother in the kitchen. He was chopping vegetables when suddenly, he sneezed.

    A puff of air from his sneeze blew the chopped vegetables into the simmering soup pot, which started bubbling over. Surprised, Jamal sneezed again.

    This time, his sneeze was so powerful that it blew the kitchen window open. A gust of wind swept in, carrying with it a red feather.

    Jamal picked up the feather and sneezed one more time. Suddenly, the feather began to glow brightly and flew out of the window.

    Intrigued, Jamal decided to follow the feather. He sneezed again, and this time, he was propelled forward by the force of his sneeze.

    Jamal journeyed through fields and forests, sneezing his way forward. He finally arrived at a small hut in the middle of the woods.

    Inside the hut was an elderly woman. She smiled at Jamal and introduced herself as Granny Zara, the village healer.

    Granny Zara listened to Jamal’s story and then told him that he had been chosen by the sneezing powers for a special task.

    She explained that the red feather belonged to the mythical Sneezing Bird, which could only be found by someone with sneezing powers.

    Granny Zara then handed Jamal a small vial. The vial contained a potion that would guide him to the Sneezing Bird.

    Jamal thanked Granny Zara and set off on his journey. He followed the potion's guidance and reached a mountain peak where the Sneezing Bird was said to nest.

    He found the Sneezing Bird perched on a branch. It was a magnificent creature with brilliant red feathers, just like the one Jamal had found.

    Jamal approached the bird and explained his situation. The bird listened intently and agreed to help him control his sneezing powers.

    The bird taught Jamal some breathing techniques and gave him a feather. She told him that the feather would help him harness his sneezing powers when needed.

    Jamal thanked the bird and began his journey back. He noticed that his sneezes were not as erratic anymore, and he felt more in control.

    When he returned home, his mother was surprised to see him return so quickly. Jamal explained his adventure and showed her the feather.
