How do you express: How could this happen?
I would like to know how to express when something unexpected has happened in Japanese. Today is suppose to be my second trial lesson but it has been canceled due to a global issue with Skype. :( I was really looking forward to that. It's really disappointing, even though it's out of my control i'm still upset.

Question

Answer

I would say どうして／なんで　こうなるんだろう？　and I might add かんべんしてよ！（＝Give me a break!)

I hope you'll get another chance soon!

Answer

In a situation like yours, I would probably say 「どうして!?」or 「なんで!?」, both of which mean "How come!?"or "Why!?"
