the Was. of Jimmy McVonson - act one; division five: hUnting & f;shing p1

uncle seth said he remembered me

i didn’t remember him

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZzZzsSxaq

he wore camouflage pants

he had a scruffy moustache

and rough sideburns

he would cough every time he laughed

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjl8uRMW03J

he hugged pops when we arrived

and shook gail’s hand

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Cz6h8NYcn

then he shook my hand

firmly

and ruffled the hair on the top of my head

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5ibP63o4G

“nice to see you, jim” he grinned

showing less teeth than i expected

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiFsfDQ1Jo

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyzi3NUNGU

we settled down

and put our luggage in the rooms where we were sleeping

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTomfEsWKM3

i didn’t want to know

that gail and pops

would be in the same bed

but i hated myself for caring

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPylwc2MCP

at least i had a room to myself

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvjpsnLefN

there was no wifi at uncle seth’s house

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYCEVD6yO9

and no reception

so there was no way for me to talk to pandora

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPGiynOK8V

gail tried to tell me it’s better that way

“the internet connects us with people far away

“but it separates us from people who are right in front of us.”

i didn’t quite see her point

i wanted to be separated

from the people in front of me

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kz3bkJvrd

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWzdF099oD

uncle seth woke me up at 5 in the morning

“come fishing with me”

he whispered

“it’ll be fun.”

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRUkiXuPd3

“i’m a vegan”

i whispered back

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8jDG6k1Ud

he scoffed

“no, really. you’ll love it.”

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxWSZu284G

he took me out to a bridge

over a lake

that was so quiet

i could hear my own heartbeat

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyVeePrR0T

he showed me how to prepare a fishing rod

and we waited

lines in the water

for something to happen

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3ba7UvUJD

uncle seth took a lunchbox out of his satchel

“hungry?”

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6xVsZ9nma

i nodded.

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TpuQqC5ic

he handed me a bun

he must have prepared?

before?

5 in the morning?

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMR5viqjfEx

i looked inside

it was ham

and cheese

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lMQBNX1Sn

would i rather kill a pig?

or force a cow to lactate for me?

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjdxW510vt

why was life always like that?

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvO9Zjoea8P

“ham and cheese?” i muttered, quietly.

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwheuHC8xW

“oh, yeah, boys don’t like pink food

“i’m sorry.”

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjssiOg1ut

i looked in his eyes for a sign of humour

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaMhoa2Pyx

but he was being

serious

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWdU6KEiGV

“but, jim, you’ve got to believe me

“ham is a very manly food

“it’s meat, you know”

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsDxCH3De8

“i know”

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiayixO81K

i ate the whole thing

two of them actually

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMLU8Q3HnW

at least it’s food

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKe0knhH3oR

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlYUMGGyz7

after we didn’t catch anything fishing

uncle seth took me back to the cabin

gail and pops were having breakfast

gail insulted me for not catching anything

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwg37sAtaW

“we’re going hunting now”

uncle seth told them, excitedly

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxu5aa1mAN

“i thought we were done”

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTVMdry813

“no, jim

“i’ve got a whole day planned for us”
