ok wtf happened

i was messing around in a mule game with my friend . i kept dropping and picking up his wf so he couldnt get it . it then got stuck on the curser.... i could not drop it or move although i could talk. i left the gamewith the wf floating in air because i could do nothing else . i rejoined the game only to see that i no longer had the wf and my friend said it never dropped .................... WTF HAPPENED ( btw it was a legit wf)
