Dear Umar..
I don't believe it's your fault he died. What you did is part of your job and your job is to keep the country safe. We are all proud of that especially me I'm most proud of you.
I've got some news. My Uncles came last week to talk about my father's inheritance. They were nice and very far to us but the unthinkable happened.
Uncle Abba suggested I get married soon. He had promised my father that he'd see to it that we lacked nothing. I have till November to bring a worthy suitor but hopefully you'd be back my October then I'll be your sweet November.
Umar be safe, keep with the others and .... Just be safe.
Love
Fatima
