Imagine that you witnessed Ali giving money to the clerk, Laxmi Das, for placing Miriam's letter at his Grave and you could realise how helpless Ali was. Write a letter to your daughter, mentioning the agony and helplessness that Ali felt.

Dear Anju
You remember once I told you of an old man who came daily to the post office next to our shop. He had been coming there for the last 5 years and never missed a day. He always asked the people there if there was a letter for him from his daughter Mariam. The post office people would think he was mad and would often make fun of him. But you know what happened yesterday. There is a clerk, Laxmi Das in the post office. As this clerk walked out of the office in the evening, turned to him and handed him five gold coins.” I know my end is near ,” he said looking up to the sky.” Allah is there an in His presence, I am giving you this money. When it comes you must forward my Miriam's letter to me.”
“But where I am I supposed to send it?” asked Laxmi Das.
‘To my Grave’ Said Ali, and went away. Tears welled up in my eyes and they have not dried since then. Now I realise the agony and helplessness of a poor old father.
Love you my daughter,Anju
