Dear Sharon, I am writing to invite you for dinner tonight, as we have been out of town since you moved in, and we returned yesterday. To give you an introduction about us, my name is Urvashi Pandey, and I live with my Prabhat Pandey in B-903, next door. We have been living in this society for the last five years. Originally, we are from Lucknow; however, we moved to the Amrapali Empire in 2019, and since then, we have been living here. We live in a 3 BHK apartment. Once you enter the home, you will see a Drawing room which has a Television, a TV cabinet, and L L-shaped sofa. Following that, you will see an open Kitchen which we customized as per our needs. When you move further, you will see our living room, which has an attached bathroom and a walk-in closet. Additionally, we have set aside one room for guests and kept the third room for Work. I have been planning to invite you since yesterday; however, since you were out yesterday therefore I would like to invite you for dinner tonight. I will be waiting for you tonight. Yours truly, Urvashi Pandey

Dear Neighbours, I hope this letter finds you well. My name is Akshita Sharma, and I live in apartment 504, right opposite yours on the same floor. I was travelling last week when you moved in, so unfrotunately, I could not greet you in person. Let me briefly introduce myself. I work as a software engineer in a multinational company, and I live here with my parents. We have been in this building for almost four years now and absolutely love the friendly community. Our apartment is quite similar to yours, with two bedrooms and a balcony facing the society garden, which is a perfect spot for evening tea. Since we have not yet had the chance to interact properly, I would be delighted if you could join us for dinner at our place this Saturday evening around 7 p.m. It would be a wonderful opportunity to get to know each other better. We will be preparing a mix of traditional Inidan dishes, but please let me know if you have any food preferences or dietary restrictions. Looking forward to welcoming you. Warm regards, Akshita Sharma
