Dear Mr.

Volkov

Sir, please accept my sincerest apologies of not being able to do my part of

the work within the specified time limit.
I know how important it is to complete the project within the deadline set by
the commission. However, my part of the work was too big to be completed by the
scheduled date. Moreover, I am studying and working at the same time, so I
worked hard.
Please give me a new deadline and allow me to complete my part of the
project. I will do everything at a first-class level. If necessary, you can cut my fee.
Moreover, when the project is completed, I can work for you for free.
I hope you will accept my apologies and i promise that this will never
happen again in the future and that everything will be completed ahead of
schedule.
