iMessage friend request

I received a friend request at iMessage with a message, which I read - but did not answer/accept immediately. When later trying to find it, I cannot... And now I would really like to get in touch with the person who sent it. Is that possible? Or does the request and message disappear after I read it?

iPhone 12
