Scars Of A Broken Bond by Calv Momose

He was eager to make Sabrina his wife. As soon as they paid, she would be his.
Once Andrew brought Sabrina from these human traffickers and made her his wife, he would boast about his stunning wife right
away.
Not only did he have a wife, but he married a woman more beautiful than Clifford’s!
Clifford’s family was even poorer than Andrew’s. He didn’t have any parents and the only relative he had ever since he was a
child was his grandfather. However, Clifford was tall and he had good grades in high school. Since the teachers knew about his
family’s situation, they exempted him from the tuition and also granted him a bursary.
As a result, Clifford got admission to the university.
It was rare to see one receive education in this remote and poverty-stricken area. Therefore, Clifford was often praised by the
residents here and soon became a role model.
Andrew’s and Clifford’s houses were close, so Andrew grew up being compared to Clifford.

After graduating from the university, Clifford worked in the city’s highest-rated high school. On the other hand, Andrew didn’t
even finish high school. After dropping out of school, Andrew tried to do several jobs but none of them lasted. When he became
the subject of the village’s gossip, he became irritated and depressed.
After Clifford’s grandfather passed away, Clifford was the only one left in the family. Although he didn’t have a house or car and
had little to no savings, he was an outstanding young man and many women still wanted to marry him. However, Clifford rejected

them all.
ALL of that changed two years ago when Clifford returned to clean his grandfather’s tomb. He had brought a girl with him which
caused a buzz. Andrew’s uncle asked Clifford about the girl and found out that the girl was Clifford’s girlfriend and the daughter
of the principal.
The residents admired Clifford even more. Once again, Andrew, who was still in his parents’ house growing old without any
prospects, was compared to Clifford. Andrew was not handsome and also incompetent, making it obvious that he was worthless.
At that time, Andrew and Clifford were both thirty years old. Many of their age mates were already married and had children of
their own, leaving Clifford and Andrew as the only bachelors among their peers.
There was a running joke that Clifford didn’t want to get married, and Andrew couldn’t find a woman to marry him. If Clifford
wanted to marry, he would find a good girl easily. Eagerly, Andrew’s parents had set up many blind dates for Andrew, but none of
those girls agreed to marry him.
Later, Clifford married his girlfriend who gave him a big house as a wedding gift. Apart from the times Clifford came to visit his
grandfather’s tomb, Clifford rarely returned.
As for Andrew, he seldom went out. He didn’t go out to work, nor did he do the housework. From time to time, he even got angry
at his parents and yelled at them.
If it was only the residents who compared Andrew to Clifford, Andrew might not resent Clifford so much.
But an incident occurred that only few people knew about.

Back then, the matchmaker introduced a woman to Clifford. The woman already knew that Clifford graduated from university and
had a decent job that paid a good salary. When she saw his tall and handsome face, she liked him immediately. However,
Clifford felt that they were not compatible and refused.
Not long after, the matchmaker introduced the same woman to Andrew.
Andrew was aware of his limitations, so he did not have any high expectations. As long as the woman was willing to marry him,
he would definitely agree.
However, when the woman saw Andrew, she inspected him from head to toe, turned around, and left. As she walked away, she
questioned the matchmaker, “Is this the man you told me is on par with Clifford?
What a waste of my time!”
Ever since then, Andrew hated Clifford more and more.
However, there was nothing Andrew could do to Clifford, so he kept his hatred bottled up in his heart, festering and infecting his
mind and soul until he became a gloomy man.
