You had borrowed money from your friend when you were facing some financial problems and forgot to pay it back. Write a letter to your friend and in your letter: ● apologize for being late in returning the money ● explain what happened ● say how you are going to fix the issue now
Dear Ranvir,
I hope you have been well. I am writing to express my gratitude to you as you helped me during my financial crisis. It is just because of you that I could get my father's treatment done. Since I had another issue, I was not able to return your
money
on time.
I'd like to apologize for not paying it back. I knew that you were also
having a monetary situation but still didn't leave me in such
a situation and were ready to help me at any cost. I collected the exact amount of money
I had to pay you. I am very sorry about not making it on time due to
a reason.
I didn't tell you about that my sister got into an accident. She was coming from school and was hit by a vehicle on the road. Due to
severe injuries, she has been admitted to the hospital. I needed some money
for her as well. So, I spent that money
on her medication and treatment.
But now, everything is stable. I got my promotion to a manager position and my salary has increased. I'll be sending you money
by Interac transfer tomorrow. I hope you will forgive me. Let me know when you're free to meet up.
See you soon
