from Ahmedabad to Rajkot by Bus. I lost all the identity documents including the Debit card in my purse. As there was no other way to arrange some money so I wrote to my parents and they would be sending the money on an urgent basis. I will send the money to you once I receive it from my parents. I hope it is proper to inform you that I am facing some problems with the flat. Two fans are not working properly, in the bathroom, the pipe is dripping. I shall be grateful if you would see that and repair it at the earliest. Once again, I am sorry that I can’t pay the rent before the due date and transfer the rent amount to you soon after I get it from my parents. I hope I can hear from you soon. Yours sincerely, K.R Dave
