Hon,

I know the last two or three letters written by me are too short. I told you that it was because of the formalities of settling my travel accounts. It is a headache here because the person taking care of these things is an arrogant type. She is the secretary of our Deputy MD. Always she behaves very arrogantly. All the employees are against her. The good news is that she has submitted resignation. I don't know the reason, maybe because of the frequent complaints against her.

And the other thing was testing. There were some people here who postponed their trip to Germany just to have some days with me. I have to assist them in testing their project parts because they are also working on my project. They are from different groups. They were always with me whenever I come to my seat.

I had gone to my mailcity account when I didn't get your mail. I saw some of your mails there, which were accidentally sent there. See, those emails I didn't receive in Frankfurt.

I can't go home this week. Maybe next week I will get the chance. I had called up my home. They were worried because I didn't call them the day I arrived here.

I have got the cooker here. Can I cook anything other than rice in that? Can I boil water?

And the phone number here in the office has changed. It is 2XXX now. I am sitting in the place our old project leader used to sit. He has moved out to another group. Now Devesh is the project leader for our group. That is good, we are close to him.

Since our phone calls are expensive, we can think of chatting through the internet. We can go to some sites to chat. What do you think?

How are your sister and her son? Are you staying with them? So your mother knows about our relation now. When she comes back, she may ask you about this. Everyone in the family will come to know about this, right? They will start by asking you.

What is the latest news about Anna? Sri Lanka has called the Indian military to help them to fight against terrorists. But we haven't agreed. Last time when they called we sent out an army to fight there. But in the end, they betrayed us. They didn't give support to our troops and we lost many lives there. We succeeded in eliminating the terrorists, but we paid a lot of lives. Our prime minister was assassinated by the terrorists, with the help of some Sri Lankan power lobby. So this time we are cautious. Fighting is going on in many places in Sri Lanka.

This week was your menses week, right? When I was on the flight I was thinking of that. I know your temper will be bad because of that. It is ok. We have never been together during your menses time. I want to keep you in my arms all these days. Hmmm...when we live together...

Was everything ok? No much of pain and discomfort?

And how are our children? Give them my kisses. And you too...as always...

Love

Your Kamal
