Father Michael", I shouted to the elderly priest, "Father Michael, It's good to see you again."
"Hello Doug” he responded by taking my outstretched hand.
"It's been a long time. I'm surprised you seem so pleased to see me.....after.....well, you know what happened the last time we were together."
I sensed his apprehension. "It's okay Father.. I don't blame you... Seriously Father. It was my fault."
"I wish I could feel the same," he said quietly.
"But I should have known better." I said.
He turned his head away from me slightly and said quietly, "I'm really sorry Doug.” If it's any consolation, I ask God for forgiveness every single night in my Prayers."
"Seriously Father.. It wasn't your fault." Said I.
"It's nice of you to say so Doug.” but I still feel terribly guilty." replied the Father.
"Don't," I replied, “After All. I was the silly, xxxx who asked Her to Marry Me.".
