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

uncle seth said he remembered me

i didn’t remember him

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmCdlvEIg3

he wore camouflage pants

he had a scruffy moustache

and rough sideburns

he would cough every time he laughed

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTX61PoVHPZ

he hugged pops when we arrived

and shook gail’s hand

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96TrnMsZLJ

then he shook my hand

firmly

and ruffled the hair on the top of my head

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZqRYQPupN

“nice to see you, jim” he grinned

showing less teeth than i expected

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSjhgq5Sbp

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Oe6THND3t

we settled down

and put our luggage in the rooms where we were sleeping

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3LUXYsvLd

i didn’t want to know

that gail and pops

would be in the same bed

but i hated myself for caring

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbvQQqMtls

at least i had a room to myself

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKX9HvQTlUG

there was no wifi at uncle seth’s house

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3qcPgGZuG

and no reception

so there was no way for me to talk to pandora

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSjC9kSnGA

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

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBuGnj6rwt

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHNVFdiMLf

uncle seth woke me up at 5 in the morning

“come fishing with me”

he whispered

“it’ll be fun.”

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4D18KFpgh

“i’m a vegan”

i whispered back

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yNUJVp6Hp

he scoffed

“no, really. you’ll love it.”

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEpj9GW0pC

he took me out to a bridge

over a lake

that was so quiet

i could hear my own heartbeat

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLW03v3bk8

he showed me how to prepare a fishing rod

and we waited

lines in the water

for something to happen

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbWLzKngyR

uncle seth took a lunchbox out of his satchel

“hungry?”

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Se9M0ZeSu

i nodded.

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw07GD3Y82J

he handed me a bun

he must have prepared?

before?

5 in the morning?

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQx2cYXUUL

i looked inside

it was ham

and cheese

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyWPONMF5m

would i rather kill a pig?

or force a cow to lactate for me?

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmO8vuN0pFL

why was life always like that?

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiycALjojj

“ham and cheese?” i muttered, quietly.

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfV8OwSIHS

“oh, yeah, boys don’t like pink food

“i’m sorry.”

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuewLkEYQF

i looked in his eyes for a sign of humour

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgj4xqxkMQ

but he was being

serious

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Eotc3PXBu

“but, jim, you’ve got to believe me

“ham is a very manly food

“it’s meat, you know”

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAeHUQpO7t

“i know”

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcXKWmhYsD

i ate the whole thing

two of them actually

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCjrv9WmAM

at least it’s food

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0UzR37aFW

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiyXteytoU

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

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oEuJlD7jx

“we’re going hunting now”

uncle seth told them, excitedly

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJP3VlyIgq

“i thought we were done”

273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHe9OYbfHK

“no, jim

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