The sender is Carol, a peer who was toyed with by her sister.
The sickly Asha responds to the unidentified boy in her sister’s place.

If you still have a bit of kindness left, please send a reply.]

However, Carol’s news, delivered through the postman in the picture,
suddenly stops at some point……
