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

uncle seth said he remembered me

i didn’t remember him

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIgoa7jdlL

he wore camouflage pants

he had a scruffy moustache

and rough sideburns

he would cough every time he laughed

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhogTLTxyV

he hugged pops when we arrived

and shook gail’s hand

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKe0MCrh71Z

then he shook my hand

firmly

and ruffled the hair on the top of my head

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OzrdiYisy

“nice to see you, jim” he grinned

showing less teeth than i expected

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8q4bcngcm

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVVjxyvf35

we settled down

and put our luggage in the rooms where we were sleeping

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmojhMcfkd

i didn’t want to know

that gail and pops

would be in the same bed

but i hated myself for caring

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtEbgyzWO8

at least i had a room to myself

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6fSrmyIrf

there was no wifi at uncle seth’s house

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxBEaHAtuh

and no reception

so there was no way for me to talk to pandora

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB843cLpXFd

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

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhCxAzBCgD

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hZ3wloNay

uncle seth woke me up at 5 in the morning

“come fishing with me”

he whispered

“it’ll be fun.”

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2lx6hhI06

“i’m a vegan”

i whispered back

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsRUOm7zdJ

he scoffed

“no, really. you’ll love it.”

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cTMlRVcGO

he took me out to a bridge

over a lake

that was so quiet

i could hear my own heartbeat

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kBSFacTG8

he showed me how to prepare a fishing rod

and we waited

lines in the water

for something to happen

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnOnaB0evx

uncle seth took a lunchbox out of his satchel

“hungry?”

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbe3S32p2JO

i nodded.

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlbMd0KGtV

he handed me a bun

he must have prepared?

before?

5 in the morning?

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5DwQJN0M3

i looked inside

it was ham

and cheese

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9TzaAO9s2

would i rather kill a pig?

or force a cow to lactate for me?

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGXmmfN5Kw

why was life always like that?

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUhlI9YM9M

“ham and cheese?” i muttered, quietly.

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszncykS8uo

“oh, yeah, boys don’t like pink food

“i’m sorry.”

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJVm0hw9st

i looked in his eyes for a sign of humour

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIm2UkWtVMb

but he was being

serious

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuWxBgwiYo

“but, jim, you’ve got to believe me

“ham is a very manly food

“it’s meat, you know”

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHaiPH1b7L

“i know”

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eo9vDSCrm

i ate the whole thing

two of them actually

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXJSodumEW

at least it’s food

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwryPp9EMiA

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRir58Mfrhd

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

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYzwzI3pzN

“we’re going hunting now”

uncle seth told them, excitedly

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQXdI7AnXR

“i thought we were done”

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoOgQbzeyk

“no, jim

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