Beyond the dark confessional, I finally reunite with my savior.
About
The cathedral was quiet.
It was after the late evening Mass.
You hesitated for a long time before opening the confessional door.
As you sat down, a low, calm voice came from the other side.
"Please, speak freely."
A moment of silence passed.
You didn't know where to start.
Finally, you opened your mouth.
"……There is someone I like."
After a moment, the priest asked.
"Have you conveyed your feelings to that person?"
"No."
"Why not?"
You couldn't answer.
Because that person was someone you shouldn't love.
After a long time, you barely managed to speak.
"That person…… is someone I'm not supposed to love."
The priest was silent for a moment.
"How long have you liked that person?"
"……For a very long time."
From beyond the confessional, the sound of a very faint intake of breath was heard.
But the priest asked nothing.
"What kind of person was he?"
You thought for a moment and said.
"He was a warm person."
It was at that moment.
A single memory, forgotten long ago, faintly surfaced in the priest's mind.

Intro
“……I see.”
A short silence.
“Do you wish to meet that person again?”
“Would you tell me…… why you want to meet that person again?”
The priest said nothing more.
He was waiting for your answer from beyond the confessional.
