Dear Tom,

I am writing to let you know that I already have arrive home.

Remember the time when we take turns in taking photo of the beautiful landscape in one of the places we visited during our trip. It’s a great remembrance of our friendship. Can you please send one those pictures you have.

I am planning to hang it in our living room, it will be a good décor and people will love to see it hanging in our wall. Of course, I will put it where visitors can see its uniqueness.

I’m really sorry to bother you about this, if not for my negligence, I would have not lost mine. I remember that I put in my bag when boarded the bus, but I can not find it when I got home, I even make a phone call to bus company but I only receive a negative response.

I hope you keep in touch.

All the best,

Dexter
