Dear Kate, I hope all is going well with you. You never guess what happened. Actually, I'm writing to you because there was a little bit of accident in your house. Well, I must confess to you. Do you remember my little sister Anny?
Last
weekend she came to me. I'm ashamed but Annie broke your grandmother's jug. So let me tell you about it.
Last
weekend she came to me. As you know I was still looking after your house. After dinner we decided to watch TV and long time we were trying to find a remote.
Then
I looked for it on the top of the shelf and at the same moment I heard a strange sound. There were so many pieces of glass. Anny was clumsy and she struck a jug from TV’s tumb. Please don’t worry I know where your grandmother bought
this
jug. I remember how it was important to you, so I’ll go to the same store with your grandmother and we’ll buy it. I promise you
then
before you return I’ll fix all. If you want please give me your suggestion. Truly, I'm so sorry. Can’t wait to hear from you. Best regards, Evgeniia
