Welcome back everyone. Enjoy and review.
Confession
Niall walked up the priest, the one who would be doing the marriage. He had a troubled conscience and so he came to the priest to make that.
"I'd like to make a confession." Said Niall.
"Now?" asked the priest, surprised. "Niall, I'll be doing a marriage in…" He checked his watch. "Actually, we still have a lot of time. Lets go." The two went over to the confession booth. "Alright, Niall—"
"Don't I get to say the line first?" asked Niall.
The priest sighed. "Alright, say it."
"Bless me, father for I have sinned."
"Okay, Niall lets here it. What happened? Did you return a library book late again?"
"Actually I am partaking in a prank against my brother." Stated Niall.
The priest just stared. "What? That's it? You're behaving as siblings should."
"I'm not done." Said Niall.
"You replaced his head in a family picture with that of an ass?"
"No… Are you familiar with 'Twelfth Night?'" asked Niall.
"Oh, I love that play!" exclaimed the priest. "Especially that part with the yellow… Oh, I see. So who is the girl? Was it that Rachel girl you were looking at?"
Niall blushed a bit. "No, no, no, no, no!"
"I can see I touched a nerve there." Commented the priest. "Alright, who was it then?"
"Heidi Weinerman." Stated Niall.
"Oh, yes!" exclaimed the priest. "I heard she's dating that Ken Finlayson. She's Jewish and he's neo-pagan, reminds me of Esther and Xerxes… What is he exactly?"
"Celtic."
"Not exactly like Esther and Xerxes then but almost." The priest ran a hand through his thinning hair. "I can see your conundrum. You pulled a prank on your brother based on the yellow stockings scene from 'Twelfth Night' and thus you don't want to possibly ruin someone's relationship. Ken is your friend, isn't he?" Niall nodded. "And you've told me you view Heidi as a big sister."
"And that's not even the half of it! I'm an accomplice!"
"Howard?" Niall nodded. "Figures, I see so much of myself in him when I was his age."
"What do I do?" asked Niall.
"Confront Howard. If I remember how I was back then, I wasn't the kind of person who had a conscience."
"But he's bigger than me!" exclaimed Niall in shock.
"You're four foot nine, most of the world is bigger than you."
"Can't I just stop Robert?" asked Niall.
"Sure, be David." Replied the priest. "I always did prefer reading about Samson, Moses, you know the ones DeMille made movies about."
"Ben Kingsley was a better Moses than Charlton Heston and Theodore Roberts combined." Commented Niall. "And Frank Langella a better Pharaoh of the Exodus than Yul Brynner and Charles de Rochefort There is no one better than Kingsley and Langella."
"This confession is over." The priest left the booth, thus leaving Niall as well.
Niall then poked his head out of the booth and called: "It's true!" The priest didn't listen. He just kept walking. Thus was Niall now left with having to stop his brother.
