Dear Rahul,
First of all, I am hoping that you are doing great in your life. As we had discussed over the phone, you are coming to Mumbai first time. So,wholeheartedly, I welcome you to
this
beautiful city. Unfortunately, some family-related work comes out as an emergency therefore
, I can not pick you up from the airport but I am planning for something big and for sure, coming to Mumbai will be worthwhile for you.
Firstly
, my grandmother is unwell nowadays and yesterday night, suddenly, she got sick and due to
this
, she is unable to perform any task. Therefore
, I need to take care of her very carefully as well as
I will have to go to the hospital for further
follow-up from the doctor.
However
, these are family issues but don't worry. I have arranged for you an interesting party where all our childhood friends come. Furthermore
, we will also
visit some spectacular scenery with my family. I am pleased that you are visiting this
city and we will every moment. I am regretful for
the inconvenience.
Yours lovingly,
