You would like to request time off from work for a family function.
Write a letter to your manager. In your letter:
Give details of the event
Explain why you need time off
Suggest how your work could be managed during your absence
Dear Sir,
I hope you are doing well. I am writing to request some time off from work on May 28, because I need to attend a family function.
My parents will celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary on May 29. On that occasion, my brother and I planned a party for them. The event will take place in the morning, and I need to finalise a few designs and the menu with the catering team on May 28 at noon time around 4 PM.
I need time off for 4 hours on that day, which means I'll leave the office at 1 PM and will go straight to the catering office, to finalise some important arrangements.
Meanwhile, I have already talked with John to have a closer look at my support inbox, in case any high-priority ticket gets raised. He agreed to take care of that.
Thanks for understanding my concern.
Sincerely,
Mohit

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences
You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.
‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.
Examples:
I really want to study but I’m too tired.
I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.
If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
These days, one of the major problems facing the modern world is the issue of crime. Some individuals hold the view that a constant sentence should be assigned to each felony, while others think that the situation and stimulants that cause guilt should be considered. In this essay, I will look at both sides, and give my opinion.
The ongoing debate about whether it is better for university students to study abroad or remain in their hometown is complex. While there are clear advantages to studying close to home, I am convinced that the benefits of living away from home during university outweigh those of staying local.
Dedication helps a man to become perfect either in sports or in music. Though some individuals think that some specific talents are natural, others believe that it is possible to earn by continuous practice. I presume restless effort is more important compared to natural skill.
In the contemporary era, the number of people longing to learn about the historical background of the accommodation they wish to live in is rising. Given that this phenomenon stems from people wanting to ensure a reliable source of investment and safety, it can be pursued in several ways that this essay further elaborates on.
A tendency for individuals to behave greedily and selfishly has become a foundation of today's world. Some people argue that we should return to more traditional values, resulting in a better society to live in. I partly agree with the opinion that restoring traditional values is necessary for a sustainable society in the future.
