Question

Why was Lencho angry when he received the letter?

Hint:

In long-answer questions, always combine the story event + Lencho’s reaction + reason behind it for a complete response.

Answer 1

Step 1: Recall the story.
In “A Letter to God,” Lencho had asked for 100 pesos to recover from the crop loss.
Step 2: The event.
He received only a part of the money in the envelope. Instead of doubting God, he suspected human dishonesty.
Step 3: Conclusion.
Thus, Lencho was angry because he thought the post office employees had stolen the rest of the money.
