hroughout college, Matt had a friend named Mark. As good friends, the two went bowling together, they knew everything about each other, and they hung out. Also, they overcame many problems together. They were really good friends.

On Matt’s twenty-fourth birthday, their life changed. On thenightbeforehisbirthday, Mark called Matt,“Hi!”His voice sounded strange. He continued,“I have an important project to work on. I’m having some problem with this. Maybe, you could come over and help me with it by giving me some new ideas. Could you?”Matt asked,“What time?”Mark kept silent for a minute, and then he said,“8 p.m. is good for you?”Then Matt answered,“OK! See you later.”At that night, it was Matt’s birthday. So, he didn’t want to spend his birthday helping Mark withhisproject.Mattwenttoaclubwithsomeotherguys.

The next morning, Matt noticed that Mark was acting differently. When he went to talk to Mark, Mark ignored him completely. He left the classroom without saying one word. As Mark was walking away, Matt said in an angry voice,“You are selfish. You are just thinking about yourself. I was having fun on mybirthday.Whycan’tyouunderstandit?”

While he was saying it, Mallory, one of his classmates, stood up and started to say,“How can you say such thing to Mark?You don’tknow whathappened!Lastnight, he called you many times, but he didn’t get any answer from you. He worried about what was going wrong with you. He took his car and drove all night looking for you.”Matt started to apologize to Mallory andtohimself, saying,“Whydid hedoit?Hecould work on the project by himself, and...”At that time Mallory spoke angrily,“Shut up! He had prepared a surprise party for you, and we waitedforyouorforacallallnightlong.”

在马特24岁生日的时候,他们的生活发生了改变。在马特生日的前一晚,马克打电话给他:“嗨!”当时马克的声音听起来很奇怪。他接着说:“我有一个重要的项目要做,但遇到了一点麻烦。或许你可以过来帮帮我,给我出一些新的点子,可以吗?”马特问:“什么时候?”马克沉默了一会儿,然后说:“明天晚上八点你方便吗?”马特回答:“好的,到时候见。”那晚正是马特的生日,他不想把生日浪费在帮马克做项目上,于是和其他一些人去了俱乐部。

第二天早晨,马特发现马克的举止异常,当他走过去和马克说话时,马克竟全然忽视他,而且一言不发地离开了教室。马克走后,马特气愤地说:“你真自私!你只想着自己!我只是在生日时开心一下,你为什么不能理解我呢?”

就在他说这些话的时候,他的一个同学马洛里站起来,说:“你怎么可以这样对马克说话?你根本不知道发生了什么!昨晚,他给你打了很多次电话,但你都没有回复。他担心你出了什么事,所以一整晚开着车到处找你。”马特开始向马洛里道歉,同时也自责,说:“他为什么要那样做啊?他可以忙自己的事,然后……”这时,马洛里气愤地说:“闭嘴!他为你准备了一个惊喜的生日派对,我们一整晚都在等你,等你的电话。”

眼泪从马洛里的眼中簌簌落下。马特不知道该说什么,不知道该怎么做。他还没来得及开口,马洛里就离开了教室。马特坐下来,在教室里待了很久。他环顾教室,没有朋友在的教室显得冰冷而四壁空空。
