this
meets you well. I am writing
this
letter to report an incident that happened on Friday evening being the 10th day of March 2023.

I was almost driving past the school when i saw the ball move across the school fence on high speed and it suddenly struck my car windscreen causing terrible damage to it instantly. I found a convinent space to park
while
some of the boys came out to the road side to pick their ball and probably see my affected vehicle. The first action i had to take was to find out the cost of the damage so i placed a call across to a motor parts vendor at that instance who quoted fifty five thousand naira as the cost of replacing my damaged front glass. I went ahead to inquire from the boys to who kicked the ball which
such
a force that it went beyond the school premises to the road to avoid accusing the innocent and was informed it was your son,
Victor

Victor
showed made me have a rethink and i have decided to bear half of the cost of repair
while
the other half will come from you, his parents as
Victor
