"So are you excited about tonight's birthday party?"
"Oh I'm not going - I'm seeing a friend of mine."
"Really? Wish you could join us, A. How about you, B?"
"Oh B's meeting up with a friend, too."
"Seriously?"
"Yeah, what a coincidence..."
*Fast-forward 4 hours*
"Hi, C. How many of us are there tonight?"
"Not too many..."
"Hey, how come we're not celebrating D's birthday as well? After all, it's between E and F's birthday."
"Oh didn't you hear? A bunch of them wanted to celebrate D's birthday. Just them."
"Why not celebrate three birthdays instead of just one?"
"I don't know."
If you haven't figured it out by now, A and B are very good friends of mine.
I don't know about you, but in my opinion "We didn't want a big party" or even "You're not invited" probably would have hurt a lot less than a lie. But that's just me.
