REPLY TO ABOVE

Dear Jack,

Thanks for your lovely letter, the loviest ever written by anybody on such an occasion. Not only we but also you are to be congratulated for not having given way to foul whispers and kept your faith in the sincerity of my inventions. Half of our engagement we owe to you. In love as in war, whispers can cost lives.

Yours sincerely,

Belly.

A HUSBAND’S COMPLAINT

Dearest,

You say you do not write to me lovingly because you don’t know how and what to write. Says Shakespeare, “They love not, who do not express their love. Write to me if you love me.

Yours lovingly,

Nawaz Akbar.

CONGRATULATIONS TO MOTHER ON HER DAUGHTER’S ENGAGEMENT

Dear Mrs. Farkhanda Hashmi,

I was delighted to hear at your daughter’s engagement with Mr. Khush Bakht Khan. I hasten to congratulate you and trust that the boy and the girl are well matched and will be happy. It is certainly something to make us all feel really proud. My wife and children join with me in sending you our heartiest congratulations on this historic occasion in the annals of the two families.

Yours sincerely,

Muhammad Sabir Khan.

A COUNTER REPLY

My Darling,

You have been deceived. Expression of love need not be vocal. It may take several other forms. You say you do not want to express your love but you want to be loyed tender all the same. After all that would require some expression of love.

Yours lovingly,

Nawaz Akbar.

TO AN ANGRY HUSBAND

My Dear Me,

Forgive me. You know I am a foolish girl. I am really sorry that I had to tell you lies. You were cross with dear Akhtar and this I could not tolerate easily. I know, but for my intervention you would have beaten him or may be refuse. I hope you would agree with me that by telling a lie I did succeed in adverting a great calamity. I had wished to stay on at home until your return in the evening. But Suhail came to tell me that you had desired that I did accompany him and remain with sister Sadia at the nursing home. I thought it only proper to accomany him lest that should arouse a chain of suspicions in the imaginative brain of young Suhail. Akhtar felt sorry afterwards. I hope you would forgive me for the lie and implore that you would also forgive dear Akthar.

Even yours,

Anwari.

LOVERS’QUARREL

My dear Kishwar,

Please forgive and forget. Will you forgive and forget? I was really off my head when I picked a quarrel with you last night. I was really unreasonable. Certainly it was not your fault. It was really mine. How can I convince you that I am really sorry for what has happened? I was a fool last night, and I know it. I can’t imagine that I could have behaved like this normally. I lost my temper over a trifle and I am now kicking myself for having done that. This is the first occasion we have quarrelled. But I have learnt a new lesson. I am sure that this will not happen again. I have never felt so miserable in my life as I do now. Please forgive and meet me tomorrow morning.

Yours lovingly,

Zafar.

Dear Sir,

TESTIMONIAL

This is to certify that Mr. Riyasat Ali, who has been my student during 1988-93, was one of the most brilliant students of the English class, and was inspired by original and creative ideas as exhibited in his various contributions to the college magazine. He had been an active member of the college debating society and took an enthusiastic par in all extra-curricular activities, particularly the social functions whereof he proved to be a very good organizer. He bears a good moral character with sterling gifts, and I have no hesitation in strongly recommending him to all those with whom his future may be associated.

Karamat Husain,

Principal.
