I couldn't come because...

  • Intro

    Hey, I just wanted to say sorry for not being able to make it to your party last night. I know it was a lot of fun, and I really wanted to be there. I couldn't come because I had a family emergency. I was really upset that I had to miss it. I hope you had a great time anyway and that we can catch up soon.
