say = 言います(polite form)、言う(normal form)
said = 言いました(polite form)、言った(normal form)
'My friend said to me" is 友だちが私に言いました。or 友だちが私に言った。
'I said to my friend" is 私が友だちに言いました。or 私が友だちに言った。
Hope this helps!

In this case, you could say, 私の友達が来れないと言った。(わたし の ともだち が これない と いった)
In English it would be, "my friend said that he can't come".
When you want to quote what someone else said you can always say -と 言った or -って 言った (very informal). and you always add it after whatever the person said.
言う has a lot of other usage as well, for example when you want to say "it's called".
Ex: "I'm called David"
"ダヴィドと言います"
It's a very useful word ^_^
I hope this was helpful!
