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

uncle seth said he remembered me

i didn’t remember him

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ym8lgRHtw

he wore camouflage pants

he had a scruffy moustache

and rough sideburns

he would cough every time he laughed

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfazPLjNJSZ

he hugged pops when we arrived

and shook gail’s hand

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RF9M9Y7JJ

then he shook my hand

firmly

and ruffled the hair on the top of my head

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7nABPV5c2

“nice to see you, jim” he grinned

showing less teeth than i expected

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrbGcctMyk

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeaowVnnY1

we settled down

and put our luggage in the rooms where we were sleeping

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1Mwj5YC9C

i didn’t want to know

that gail and pops

would be in the same bed

but i hated myself for caring

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjE1tgvlkY

at least i had a room to myself

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyPjlFfnKG

there was no wifi at uncle seth’s house

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfkAqEhQoQ

and no reception

so there was no way for me to talk to pandora

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1k5gWdv9i1

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

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvIDqUEBrc

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcz8BMqQuJq

uncle seth woke me up at 5 in the morning

“come fishing with me”

he whispered

“it’ll be fun.”

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh026yNmrI4

“i’m a vegan”

i whispered back

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq42TtNH8Bu

he scoffed

“no, really. you’ll love it.”

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhk2FLodKp8

he took me out to a bridge

over a lake

that was so quiet

i could hear my own heartbeat

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKEmC3DmO4

he showed me how to prepare a fishing rod

and we waited

lines in the water

for something to happen

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkSSJjQiUi

uncle seth took a lunchbox out of his satchel

“hungry?”

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0d9kAButNY

i nodded.

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVIBgy0V8o

he handed me a bun

he must have prepared?

before?

5 in the morning?

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjex1s7wpu3

i looked inside

it was ham

and cheese

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGWDhg0KRS

would i rather kill a pig?

or force a cow to lactate for me?

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMXE48Ms3Y

why was life always like that?

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMgYeLVFru

“ham and cheese?” i muttered, quietly.

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0NmfanDc4

“oh, yeah, boys don’t like pink food

“i’m sorry.”

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrdiM5chfU

i looked in his eyes for a sign of humour

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVvZhkcdK3

but he was being

serious

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVlBGLLGTm

“but, jim, you’ve got to believe me

“ham is a very manly food

“it’s meat, you know”

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNgLilPMVL

“i know”

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIcuRdipBn

i ate the whole thing

two of them actually

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMOhmYtxMS

at least it’s food

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKtuyhuivL

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUqsI3Lemw

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

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1anSeFqWjB

“we’re going hunting now”

uncle seth told them, excitedly

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNUd3Ip6DW

“i thought we were done”

259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5maJxKOLC

“no, jim

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