​Interview with Father John

 White collars make me shudder. Take my childhood priest. Mum never believed me. 
Eventually, he confessed. Killed himself. 
Also, there's Father John. He doesn’t remember me. 
"What's the best thing about priesthood?" he asks.
“Hearing confessions and assigning penances," I eventually say, not wishing to leave him hanging. 
Not yet.
