If you touch me again my body will explode into a thousand pieces and the palace will crumble in disarray because no one will know how to rearrange the furniture. Please refrain from even the briefest of physical contact in the future. There’s no one else to dust. Respectfully yours, Checkers

Hello I hope you are faring well. I am writing to you to request with the deepest and most enduring regret to please refrain from making eye contact with me Checkers from now on and forever more. Your attention causes nuclear fission in every neuron in my body, and I cannot clean up my continuing meltdown. I will be fired; I need my job. Respectfully yours, Checkers

I am writing respectfully to request that you remove yourself from any daily extraneous contact with myself. I have discovered I suffer from a heart condition in your presence; it simply beats too fast. With regret, Checkers
