For days, I have been keening to write a letter to you again, but I just (have / had) no time, because I (just finished / have just finished ) my exam today. (note: this sentence is just writen by myself)
Q: As the sentence above, which one in the bracket is correct?
My comprehension is: In the first bracket, since it is now that I am writing the letter and telling the person who will receive my letter that I have no time, so the present tense should be used here. However, considering that that I am writing the letter indicates that I have time to write the letter, I just had no time in the past, therefore, the past tense should be used here. Which one is correct? Similarly, in the second bracket, which one is correct? :-?
