~: come up and ask for leave

Come up and ask for a leave

Dear friends, sorry, I have to ask for leave.

My cousin passed away this morning, and we rushed over to help with the funeral.

My cousin is fifty-two years old. He was divorced a few years ago. There is only one daughter who is only twenty-five. She is not married, has no partner, and knows nothing.

We, the brothers and sisters, have to help with the funeral.
