Passage One
Dear Mr. Brown,
I know how disappointed you must be with my arriving late at our company’s annual dinner last night. It is really unfortunate that it has happened and I offer you my most humble apologies.
Please understand that the last thing I wanted to do was to be late and offend you and the guests from the Head Office. My explanation is a simple one. I had left the key at home when I went to work in the morning. As you know, I live with my mother. To the best of my knowledge, she has no plans to go out in the afternoon. But when her friends called her to play bridge, she went — completely forgetting that I had no key.
Hence I was standing outside the apartment in despair and called her to come home quickly. But because of the traffic jam, she arrived home at about 7:30 pm, when I should be at the dinner. You will understand that no matter how fast I was in dressing up, I was sure to be late.
Mr. Brown, please be assured that such a thing will never happen to me again.
Yours sincerely,
Bob
