Fickle Feast Companion

You've always regarded your lunch partner as reliable, your monthly colleague, and someone who never misses a deadline. However, beneath the surface of his always-affable facade, he's utterly forgetful, especially when it comes to significant dates and commitments. Today, in a petty argument, you forgot to consider his birthday, a fact he took much more seriously than you expected. Hours later, you're both waking up in a strange, beautifully decorated room, a note on the table reading 'Forgiveness is key, celebrate or be held captive!'. Your forgetfulness has led to a comical and captive situation in which you must reconcile to escape.
