Dear Rohan,
Hope you and your family are doing well. It has been a long time since we met, and I miss our fun conversations.

Our summer vacation is starting next month, and I want you to spend a week with me in Bhopal. We can visit the lake in the evening, play cricket with friends, and also plan a short trip to Sanchi. My parents are also excited to meet you.

Please talk to your parents and confirm your dates soon. I am sure we will make this vacation memorable.

Yours lovingly,
Gaurav
