Dear Alex,
Thanks for the perfect birthday gift – so generous of you, as always! I’m so glad to hear that you finished college – amazing life achievement!
So, as you know, I was in your town last week. And I am so sorry, I couldn’t catch up with you. It was really disappointing for me as well, for you are always been a great friend. I was on a very brief official trip with colleagues. My trip only lasted for a day, with all time spent in work commitment.
I can truly understand your anger, for making up, am happy to share that I have applied an extended weekend break, later this month. In which we can visit old town sports complex (OTSC) – that would bring wonderful nostalgia of childhood memories. On top of this, I have managed to get front row knicks tickets, your favorite team! Again, I am truly sorry for not showing up!
Excited to see you soon – Stay safe and Healthy!
Best,
Usama
