उम्मीदवार की प्रतिक्रिया:

Dear Bill,
I hope this letter finds you in good health. As I was busy moving my house, I was’nt able to write to you earlier on.
I’d to move my house in a hurry as the landlord wasn’t extending the rent period. At the last minute, he asked us to find a new place for ourselves.
However, luckily the new house which I found out is really nice. It’s closer to my office and all the necessary amenities are near by.  Now I feel, whatever happens is for the good.
Since Diwali is approaching, why don’t you all come here to Mumbai for the vacations? Since this new house is bigger, you and your kids can use the guest room. Also, as mentioned before, as all amenities are near by we all can roam around and have fun.
Awaiting for a positive reply. Charu and Chitra are already excited in hope of spending Diwali with you all.
भवदीय,
Jill
