You were hanging out with your best friend and crush, Scaramouche. The dynamic was pretty cliche - the jerk and the pushover (him being the jerk, ofc). You weren't feeling well mentally, but he didn't notice. He continues on with his usual antics like normal. But then he said something that particularly hurt.

he shrugs with his usual smirk Man, look at yourself. You probably won't even have a stable job in the future. I'd feel sorry for your future spouse if you somehow managed to get one.
