A letter for my brother...

Dear Johnrose,
By this time, you must be more or less settled down with all those events and situations which troubled you and your family. I did try to stand on your shoes to understand you as a loving, caring and responsible father. Emotions might have given way to seasoned thinking after this much time.
Yes, it is me, Pankiras. If that very name annoys, you need not proceed further. Take your own time to get back to your mother at least, before it may be too late. Almost a year back, sent you a letter, without bothering to reveal the identity, on your birth day as it can’t easily be forgotten. Hope, you got it. Two more weeks remaining there for your birth day, comes another day, Fathers’ Day!’
You were and are a good and responsible father, going any extent to bring joy to your children. You are a good and loyal husband and in-law too. May you have all the joys of those relishing relations! But one has to have some other ‘sine qua non’ relations which you seemingly have either disregarded or the later relations have eclipsed that! If that makes you comfortable, carry on with. Those a priori relations long to come in search of that ‘lost’….
They might not have positively supported you or your concerns. But certainly did they not oppose you or did anything to harm you or your people, though it might have looked so! May be that time will prove and they seemingly are not in a hurry to prove anything. If I understand rightly, your mother still earns for you. Being a loving father, you won’t fail to understand such maternal feelings.
Happy fathers’ day!
