Band 8+: You recently borrowed a valuable item from a friend, and unfortunately, it was damaged while in your possession. Write a letter to your friend explaining the situation. You should include details about: - describing how the damage occurred - expressing your regret and taking responsibility - suggesting a way to compensate for the damage.

Hello, my dear friend. I hope you are doing well and feeling good. Unfortunately, I have some bad news to share.

First of all, I apologize for being a little careless while trying out your new tablet. Usually, I try to be fully focused and careful when using valuable items, whether it’s a tablet or anything else. However, I made a mistake by holding the tablet like it was a small plate. I tripped while walking and, unfortunately, I couldn’t save it. I admit that it’s 100% my fault, and I take full responsibility for not holding the tablet correctly.

As someone who believes in owning up to his mistakes, I want to make it up to you. Despite breaking your tablet, I would like to offer you a new version of the same tablet as an apology gift. Your best friend, Bader.
