Dear Sir,
I am your new neighbor, moved into the flat very next to yours few months ago. Our working timings are such that we rarely meet. In the recent resident’s welfare association meeting, I wanted to very much meet you, but unfortunately you could not make it due to business commitments. I met your wife and your two-year-old daughter. In fact, your daughter, who was feeling uncomfortable and was crying in the welfare association meeting, found in me a good playmate. We got along well. And I must say you are an extremely lucky man to have a very traditional & lovely family. You are truly blessed sir.
I wanted to tell you personally, but as our meeting could not happen, I have chosen to confess something personal in this note. Based on this confession, I request you not to judge my character. I must tell you that I am a good family man with helping nature.
The confession is this sir: I have been using your wife regularly. I spend a lot of quality time on your wife. Throughout the day you are at your showroom and hence, you do not get to know what is happening here. Since I have night shifts, I am usually at home the entire day. After I complete cooking and cleaning, I begin to spend my entire time with your wife. Most importantly, your wife is available whenever I needed. I am thankful to you for making it possible. In a new huge city like this, I feel perfectly at home, a million thanks to your wife.
You have an extremely beautiful wife, because of fastness and availability. I feel sometimes sad for you as you do not get to enjoy your wife as much as I do. I do not have to struggle much as the wife is available at the connecting door between our flats which is securely locked from the other (your) side. Even while in the bathroom I enjoy wife. I can be silent about using your wife. But my conscience does not agree to remain silent. As it is my moral duty to thank you for letting me use your wife, I am penning this note.
In view of the fact that my family is away and have few friends in this city, the only option I have is to sit at home and enjoy your wife. Hence, I propose that since I am equally using your wife, I request you let me share the cost equally with you. This will remove the guilty feeling from my heart. I request you to let me know. Please convey my regards to your wife. I shall eagerly look forward to receiving your kind reply.
Yours Sincerely
(New Neighbor)
