Dear Kelly, Sorry, it’s taken me so long to write to you but at last I decided to own up to my mistake and explain why I haven’t returned your laptop yet. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to return your laptop to you because it got damaged during my presentation last week. To be honest, I’ve delayed writing this letter to you because I’ve been feeling dreadfully guilty about it all knowing that it was a brand new laptop. I’m so very sorry. Let me explain what happened, everything went well with the presentation until just near the end when I got completely flustered. At that point, I was concentrating so much on what I was saying that I accidentally knocked my cup of coffee which spilled all over your laptop. Since then, your laptop hasn’t worked properly even though I’ve restarted it a number of times. As the laptop just won’t work properly, I’ve decided to send it to a specialist I know. Actually, I’ve already talked to him and he assures me that it’ll be as good as new by Wednesday next week which will be in times for your online class that you start on Thursday. Of course, I’ll cover the costs. I can’t apologise enough for what’s happened, but please know that it will all get sorted. I hope you can forgive me. Best wishes, Ashish
