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

uncle seth said he remembered me

i didn’t remember him

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfDcaH6dvP

he wore camouflage pants

he had a scruffy moustache

and rough sideburns

he would cough every time he laughed

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7P6ZeO163P

he hugged pops when we arrived

and shook gail’s hand

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuZsH09M48

then he shook my hand

firmly

and ruffled the hair on the top of my head

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDN85OoFgk

“nice to see you, jim” he grinned

showing less teeth than i expected

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHANRZCJFD

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ668mOGfRhu

we settled down

and put our luggage in the rooms where we were sleeping

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dTyNUSs1W

i didn’t want to know

that gail and pops

would be in the same bed

but i hated myself for caring

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNgS3KFKX1

at least i had a room to myself

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutRaq29onw

there was no wifi at uncle seth’s house

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNKgfyctTN

and no reception

so there was no way for me to talk to pandora

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqvFleQope

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

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtSsnrb3RW

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexmTu8xzcp

uncle seth woke me up at 5 in the morning

“come fishing with me”

he whispered

“it’ll be fun.”

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ36EYVWjYZ

“i’m a vegan”

i whispered back

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfaE2XAWZp

he scoffed

“no, really. you’ll love it.”

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d8ByR60Do

he took me out to a bridge

over a lake

that was so quiet

i could hear my own heartbeat

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiY1w4sX16

he showed me how to prepare a fishing rod

and we waited

lines in the water

for something to happen

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81PqDX9Nom

uncle seth took a lunchbox out of his satchel

“hungry?”

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDg1k8hilE

i nodded.

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sg4Lpo8xJ

he handed me a bun

he must have prepared?

before?

5 in the morning?

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkkEWD2Fg6

i looked inside

it was ham

and cheese

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruhSx9yy12

would i rather kill a pig?

or force a cow to lactate for me?

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXjiX1V1MC

why was life always like that?

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsL9G41fgxE

“ham and cheese?” i muttered, quietly.

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHBcuc0gNL

“oh, yeah, boys don’t like pink food

“i’m sorry.”

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8RFHM5LCL

i looked in his eyes for a sign of humour

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyyVn3Wh8z

but he was being

serious

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYpNyZlUrk

“but, jim, you’ve got to believe me

“ham is a very manly food

“it’s meat, you know”

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIqL3Wx298

“i know”

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnzZmidNYm

i ate the whole thing

two of them actually

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcOJrCwJXQ

at least it’s food

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2xOuX4PQF

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjey9Ea3im

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

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXRizqnTUB

“we’re going hunting now”

uncle seth told them, excitedly

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvLIVkWCLY

“i thought we were done”

299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihppBx9MfB

“no, jim

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