I understand. You're not making excuses. I don't think you want to martyr yourself, either. Actually, you just sound really sad right now. [He pauses.] Oh, but, you know, even though I'm mad at you, I still want you to be my friend and have that birthday. Since we'll probably be going our separate ways and all... at least when we celebrate birthdays, we'd be close. But um, I understand too if you don't want it anymore.
