Kurt Kilgore walked down the street, distressed from the recent day, in a dazed stupor. Not knowing to much of what is going on with himself he walks into the nearest building that is open realizing quickly that it was a chapel. With no where else to go and nothing else to do he gives in and walks over to the confession booth and sits down inside. The silence is deafening, all he can hear is the soft creaks and cracks you will hear from any old building when it is in a constant state of settling into its place that it doesn't belong. Then there is the soft distant sound of footsteps, the slow rise and fall as they get closer and closer to him, the sudden screech of the door as the priest opens it up and sits down beside him. The creak of the wood as the priest settles down into his spot, a well-worn spot that has seen more use then any pew out in main area. The window slides open and there is a pause, Kurt doesn't really know what to say since he has never done this before, he's never been Christian or Catholic, never believed in any God or gods, so instead he relies on what he has seen on tv.
"Forgive me father for I have sinned. It has been... wait what am I suppose to say if I haven't done this before, okay let me retry this." He coughs out, not as a deliberate statement of a misstep and try again but instead from the growing cold that is developing inside of him from the long walk out in the cold rain. "Forgive me father for I have since sinned. I have never been to a confession before but this won't be my last. I have lived a life just like anyone else, it involved many instances of envy, sloth, gluttony," there is short pause as he laughs at a previous thought and endeavor "lust definitely quite a bit of lust. Something I never really experienced though was wrath. I've always been a calm person and never really got angered by anything so there was never a need to let loose and have wrath overcome myself to show someone else that I was better than them. Oh, right this is supposed to be more exact right? I'm supposed to tell you what I have done recently that I want forgiveness for?" Kurt sits there as he waits for an answer, the silence grows again as he does until the creak from the priest in his seat arises and an old and frail voice drifts out from the other side of the screen.
"If that is what you wish to confess my child"
"Right right okay, well... recently I have learnt that my wife has been cheating on me, I did not know who the guy was but I did know that he existed so I went to go find out who the guy is. This was when I started to grow angry for the first time in my life but as I investigated and found out who it was, I learnt that I might be the one to blame here. I have been an awful husband who has been distant and uncaring with his wife I have made her into this cheating woman. There is more to it as well father. This is secret right nothing leaves this box? It's like an oath you must make as a priest right"
"That is correct my child, only three people will know of what has been said in here today."
"Three? Oh, right God, I forgot about that. Well anyway, I found the man who was with my wife and I could not hold back. So much anger that I did not realize I was holding back from years and years all came out. I could not stop myself as my fist got bloodied, I could not stop myself as his cries grew louder in my ears, I could not even stop when he went limp under me and his cries and pleads stopped. He isn't recognizable from before and neither am I but in a different way. I looked at myself in the mirror after that and couldn't tell who was looking back, it wasn't me anymore though I can tell you that much, it was a monster instead."
