"Why am I so unfortunate that the first woman that stole my heart happens to be married to my best friend."
"Damn you Shawn," he cursed. "You are always having the best of everything. Now I can't even live a happy life with the one I love."

He had made such a huge sacrifice, denying himself of his much needed rest just to help his friend, only to hit himself in the foot with this horrible truth.
