Story No. 2: The "New Age" Love Letter
MODERN PROPOSAL
Dearest Ms Juliet,
I am very happy to inform you that I have fallen in love with you since the 15th of
February. With reference to the meeting held between us on the 14th of February at 1500
hrs, I would like to present myself as a prospective lover.
Our love affair would be on probation for a period of three months and depending on
compatibility, would be made permanent. Of course, upon completion of probation, there
will be continuous on the job training and performance appraisal schemes leading up to
promotion from lover to spouse.
The expenses incurred for coffee and entertainment would initially be shared equally
between us. Later, based on your performance, I might take up a larger share of the
expenses. However I am broadminded enough, to be taken care of, on your expense account. I
request you to kindly respond within 30 days of receiving this letter, failing which, this
offer would be cancelled without further notice and I shall be considering someone else.
I would be happy, if you could forward this letter to your sister, if you do not wish to
take up this offer. Thanking you in anticipation.
Yours sincerely,
Mr. Romeo

MODERN REPLY TO MODERN PROPOSAL
Attn: Mr Romeo
Dear Sir,
Please refer to your letter dated today. I am pleased to inform you that I hope to accept
your proposal for romance. However, you should be informed that there are certain
conditions of acceptance. Promotional prospects are to my satisfaction. However, please
enlighten me as to your retirement benefits. Gratuity should be generous.
I also need to be assured that there is sufficient security with regards to this
commitment. If there is any chance at all of retrenchment or consequent disinterest on
your part, then I should receive monetary compensation according to union standards. Due
to the nature of my position, I am sure you will agree that an expense account should be
arranged for my access in light of the 'VIP' I shall be entertaining.
In addition, housing and transport allowances should be in order and nothing less than a
luxury condo and a Jag are in order.
Please also note that there should be no moonlighting restrictions placed on myself. If
you are still interested in the relationship, please reply on an urgent basis as other
prospective lovers have sent indications of interest.
Please also note that my sister is happily employed.
Yours perhaps,
Juliet
