Happy Birthday

Today was my friends birthday, he turned twenty-two. In celebration of his birthday, like I try to do for most of my classmates, I bake brownies and bring then in to class for everyone to devour. So last night I spent a good amount of time mixing together ingredients, trying to keep myself clean, as well as the kitchen. While that failed, the brownies turned out pretty great; after I ran out of oil and so forth, had to run to the store, etc etc.
I was really excited because I know how everyone loves to eat and it everyone seems to love my brownies, so I'm in a great mood. I arrive at school, and carry them in, and the minute I walked in the classroom, I hear a "YES!" shouting from one side of the room. I quietly went to my seat and placed them down on the table. I sat there waiting for a bit, wondering where the birthday boy was and waiting for class to start.
Suddenly, I see my phone light up. "Hmm, it's a text from my friend", I thought. Indeed it was and the first thing it says is "I won't be in class today."
I'll admit, I was really disappointed, but I guess things happen. So, for whatever reason he had, it was more important and I understand that. I just wish I could have spent today with him. It would have been more fun.
