Introduction to Informal Letters with a Mystery Twist
Hey Sarah,
I hope you’re doing well. Something strange happened last night, and I just had to tell you about it. I was walking home from the park when I noticed a mysterious package lying near the fence. It was wrapped in brown paper and had no return address. I didn’t touch it, but I couldn’t help feeling curious. Do you think I should open it? Write back soon!
Best,
Mike
