What Good Is A Confession If You Don't Tell Anyone?
This is a confession
That I will not share with anyone else
Except for you who read it
There’s a fighter at my gym
He’s not bad
And
He’s a pretty swell guy in my book
I have respect for him
And my respect is always earned
Well,
Before I knew him,
I knew a woman from Thailand.
She was my good friends roommate,
And one summer day
We all got really drunk
And her and I
Well,
We ended up fucking
I will not go into any more details about that night
But then
A few weeks later
It happened again
I will not share the details about that night either
Like I said,
He has earned my respect
And she
She is a very nice lady
Who also ‘earned’ my respect.
But now,
In the present,
She is his wife.
I slept with his wife…
And on a regular bases
We try to punch each other in the face
I do not know if he knows
If he did know
Something tells me
He’d have a look in his eye
And a change in his body language
That I would notice
I have a feeling
He’d really come after me…
So I don’t think he knows
But then again,
We did just have a 4th of July dinner
The whole gym
And he was there
With her
And I was there
And she couldn’t look me in the eyes
And I couldn’t look at him in the eyes
I don’t think she knew that he and I trained together until that moment…
So maybe now,
he knows…
And I feel guilty about it.
