Here is another letter for you to read.

T16 C Park Lane
Kolkata 700 016

10 September 2020
My dear Ratan

I have been trying to get in touch with you for the last few days. Your

telephone does not seem to be working. So I decided to write to you.
You know that I play football for the Star Sporting Club. Next week we are

playing in a football tournament for under-12 teams. One of our star strikers,
Amit, has broken his leg. You met him last month when you visited us,
remember?

Our coach, Sujit Sir, is worried. We need a striker immediately.

The only person I could think of was you. When I suggested your name to Sujit
Sir, he was overjoyed. He knows how well you play!

So, Ratan, please come and join our team. We really need your help. I am
sure your parents will not object. My father is going to Durgapur in a couple
of days. You can come back with him. Since the Dussehra holidays would have
begun by then, you can spend a few days with us.

Please tell Uncle and Aunty about our problem. I will try to call again.
I am sure they will let you come and help us out.

My regards to you and everyone at home.

Yours affectionately
Prakash
