A UNICORN FROM SPACE

my suitmate wrote “صحتين وعافية” on our communal whiteboard, and is leaving me to figure out the non-literal meaning. the barebones translation is “two healths and forgiveness,” but i’m really curious. can someone help me out with it?

This is a little something I made while studying for my Arabic quiz on Sunday night. The heading says “CHICKEN,” and the chicken is saying, you guessed it, “DOOR.”

The next morning my Palestinian suitemate left his commentary at the bottom, which I can’t read because the only words I know involve greetings, chickens, and doors. Someone help me out?

EDIT: I KNOW WHAT IT SAYS NOW
HE WROTE “VERY BEAUTIFUL”
THAT’S SO NICE OF HIM

I want to write Arabic textboooks when I grow up. Their section on the 3ayin was pure poetry as well.

“Oh, you’re not hungry because you went to a party? For whom was the party? Was it fun? I’m glad it was fun for you. I also eat a lot at parties.”

Arabic:
