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

uncle seth said he remembered me

i didn’t remember him

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWPXN6ySow

he wore camouflage pants

he had a scruffy moustache

and rough sideburns

he would cough every time he laughed

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLdYM1qP1I

he hugged pops when we arrived

and shook gail’s hand

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFpQqc0TpD

then he shook my hand

firmly

and ruffled the hair on the top of my head

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJm9FzTgz4

“nice to see you, jim” he grinned

showing less teeth than i expected

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUq8Ss10Rp

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqj4ZvNlAH

we settled down

and put our luggage in the rooms where we were sleeping

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4cYgrXruX

i didn’t want to know

that gail and pops

would be in the same bed

but i hated myself for caring

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3sJaWKhkA

at least i had a room to myself

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYZZQnbIyy

there was no wifi at uncle seth’s house

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Mo4LweoLW

and no reception

so there was no way for me to talk to pandora

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dgMo4onDh

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

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdsMe9JL5D

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDQt3hPCZB

uncle seth woke me up at 5 in the morning

“come fishing with me”

he whispered

“it’ll be fun.”

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHUpZcZHoF

“i’m a vegan”

i whispered back

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ImOQUpbQb

he scoffed

“no, really. you’ll love it.”

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CToaKFQmS

he took me out to a bridge

over a lake

that was so quiet

i could hear my own heartbeat

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bCjck3v9d

he showed me how to prepare a fishing rod

and we waited

lines in the water

for something to happen

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFpIU9Zy3r

uncle seth took a lunchbox out of his satchel

“hungry?”

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NH1yZrSgr

i nodded.

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYpOKv7EG9

he handed me a bun

he must have prepared?

before?

5 in the morning?

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMrHtLAFbW

i looked inside

it was ham

and cheese

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYSMZmrLbE

would i rather kill a pig?

or force a cow to lactate for me?

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHWHmCM17W

why was life always like that?

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKLuzkdgtz

“ham and cheese?” i muttered, quietly.

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHrGLwHNjm

“oh, yeah, boys don’t like pink food

“i’m sorry.”

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNDuffRzd0

i looked in his eyes for a sign of humour

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXt13HlbhC6

but he was being

serious

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQdujowWyN

“but, jim, you’ve got to believe me

“ham is a very manly food

“it’s meat, you know”

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUIsyfsQhK

“i know”

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1Nm91BWRg

i ate the whole thing

two of them actually

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5xUhksNyh

at least it’s food

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYr0ePdh9P

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdH48drwnq

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

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52EjFj9fRe

“we’re going hunting now”

uncle seth told them, excitedly

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqsKHRdkgo

“i thought we were done”

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUQwXdLM39

“no, jim

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