So We're Cool, Right?

[Thom Pettigrew]

Ursula,

Can I see you soon? There's some things we should discuss. Any night this week would be amenable to me if you have one free.

Yours,
Thom

Mr. Pettigrew,

I am not amenable this week or any other.

Do not write to me again.

Mrs. Black

Mrs. Black,

Your response caught me entirely by surprise, and I feel it would be very prudent for us to meet (even briefly) if you could possibly spare the time. There is something we really ought to discuss.

I'm sorry if something's the matter. I--will be able to explain more in person.

Yours,
Thom

Mr. Pettigrew,

There is nothing we could possibly have to discuss. I shall be avoiding you as much as etiquette will allow at all public events in the future where we are both in attendance and certainly will not be meeting with you in private.

If you are lonely your nearest street corner will surely suffice.

Mrs. Black

Mrs. Black,

That sort of language is hardly befitting a woman of your character and grace.

I shall hope that you reconsider. Your proposal sounds very lonely, indeed.

Until then, I remain,
Yours,
T. Pettigrew

Mr. Pettigrew,

I shall never reconsider. I have no desire to see you, and your continued harassment and familiarity is lowering an opinion of you that I previously thought could sink no lower.

Have you forgotten that we are well and truly finished? Nothing could induce me to forgive your cruelty.

Mrs. Black
