My dear Raj,

It has been only three days since you left, and I am already missing you. One whole month without you is going to feel very boring. I do go out to play with the others, but it is not the same without you.

How are you doing there? You must be enjoying your time with your cousins. Pune is a beautiful place, and there are many interesting places to visit. I am sure your aunt is preparing delicious dishes for you.

Do write to me as soon as you get some time. I would really love to receive a letter from you. Until then, enjoy yourself and take care.

Your loving friend,
XYZ
