Hi Grandma, How are you? I'm doing great. I am really sorry that I couldn't come home to meet you last week. I understand how much you would have expected for my arrival, but i have disappointed you. As I have already told you that my exams were going to start next month, I had some assignments to be completed which carried internal marks and, suddenly they have preponed the last submission date also. Because of which, i had to cancel the plan to visit home. However, to compensate for the missed visit and to make you more happy, i have decided to apply for leave next week, to stay at our house with you. I also wanted you to confirm if you have any other plans so that i can postpone the visit. I also decided to take you out for a short trip to Rameshwaram which you had been asking me for a longer time. Once again apologise for making you feel worried. Take care. Best Wishes, Renuka
