Why didn't you accept my friend request vs Why you didn't accept my friend request

Both phrases are understandable, but the first one 'why didn't you accept my friend request' is the more common and natural way to ask this question in English. The second phrase 'why you didn't accept my friend request' is less common and sounds a bit awkward due to the missing auxiliary verb 'did'.
