A Big 'If' By: Trivette Lover Heather

"IF God exists....that's a big IF don't you think?" The Father replied to the rather hostile patient.

"I don't think so, I mean who cares?" He almost yelled back at the priest.

"Son, if you're right and I'm wrong, no one loses, but if I'm right and you're wrong...are you ready to endure the consequence?" He ended his statement pointing his finger at the young man.

Getting no reply, the Father gathered himself and calmly retreated to his tent. Being eyed the entire way. There hadn't been such a heated debate in post op in a long while.

"Did the Father just do what I think he did?" BJ Hunnicutt asked his friend as he watched the Father exit.

"I think he did just do what you think he did." Hawkeye replied also eyeing the Father.

Radar appeared next to them. "Gee, you think he'll come back and say he's sorry?"

The two shrugged. Their CO interjected. "Sometimes the truth can be a hard pill to swallow."

The four men exchanged glances then continued on their work.

Meanwhile, across the compound a man knelt quietly beside his bed.

The End.
