A Separate Peace Quote Significance 2

Quote:"I was beginning to see that Phineas could get away with anything. I couldn't help envying him that a little, which was perfectly normal. There was no harm in envying even your best friend a little."

Quote Significance:

This quote is significant because it seems to be an obvious foreshadowing of things to come. I believe that in time, Gene's jealousy towards Phineas will take a turn for the worst, and it will tear their friendship apart. It just seems like too odd of a thing to think.

Question: Is Gene glad that Phineas is the way he is?
