He did not deserve happiness. Her words rang in his head, crystal clear and fresh like she just said them to him. So just because she smiled a lot and she was friendly, she thought she deserved happiness; because she had a loving boyfriend and she had things going well for her, she thought she deserved happiness!

He says with a small sigh. " I'm sorry I've been a jerk lately." I apologise. " Please don't say that. You're not a jerk, you are a beautiful woman who's been through a lot.
