Dear Mamtha, I hope you are well and in good spirits as you receive
this
message. I know you're looking forward to my visit to your home, but I'm afraid I'll have to postpone it due to some other essential responsibilities. I received a letter from my NRI brother Harry

morning informing me that he will be visiting

at the same
time
as we had scheduled to meet. We haven't seen him in a long
time
since his studies in the United States, so we're all looking forward to meeting him and spending some quality
time
with him as well as we already had to see some of our relatives and take a tour of local sights and temples, so those days would be really busy for me. I

sorry for having to reschedule my visit to your location, because Harry had already purchased tickets and taken
time
off from work, and there was no way he could have changed his mind about going to India. He doesn't come to see us very frequently, so it'll be a very special family get-together that I can't miss. By the way, my business will be a little slower in the future summers, so if it is convenient for you, I could pay you a visit at that
time
. I'll have much more
time
with you and will be able to cover all of the attractions. Once again, I apologize profusely for any inconvenience
this
has caused. I hope you understand my predicament. Warm wishes,
Nithisha
