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

uncle seth said he remembered me

i didn’t remember him

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyE1GvnMRe3

he wore camouflage pants

he had a scruffy moustache

and rough sideburns

he would cough every time he laughed

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFZTcgV1ZY

he hugged pops when we arrived

and shook gail’s hand

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImEyqVUvSd

then he shook my hand

firmly

and ruffled the hair on the top of my head

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5HEEgwBZK

“nice to see you, jim” he grinned

showing less teeth than i expected

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOfXPAFCEL

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfgCbtCFnj

we settled down

and put our luggage in the rooms where we were sleeping

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdy2bqZLXN3

i didn’t want to know

that gail and pops

would be in the same bed

but i hated myself for caring

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6mKaDg2IA

at least i had a room to myself

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCyVU96JR8

there was no wifi at uncle seth’s house

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2pJomK4fk

and no reception

so there was no way for me to talk to pandora

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6IEYEjzHM

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

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUtiby7gF5

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9DG7ahu25

uncle seth woke me up at 5 in the morning

“come fishing with me”

he whispered

“it’ll be fun.”

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsxJoAf8ig

“i’m a vegan”

i whispered back

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRWei0TEr5

he scoffed

“no, really. you’ll love it.”

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZy2OBFWoBZ

he took me out to a bridge

over a lake

that was so quiet

i could hear my own heartbeat

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeSZPlyWyK

he showed me how to prepare a fishing rod

and we waited

lines in the water

for something to happen

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXLqlZWdZu

uncle seth took a lunchbox out of his satchel

“hungry?”

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrLolSjI4y

i nodded.

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWSxdszEgX

he handed me a bun

he must have prepared?

before?

5 in the morning?

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUFgziGJvs

i looked inside

it was ham

and cheese

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VS8bckO2G

would i rather kill a pig?

or force a cow to lactate for me?

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQS2QUdccl

why was life always like that?

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyJedKUp3p

“ham and cheese?” i muttered, quietly.

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDMWz0Iqd4

“oh, yeah, boys don’t like pink food

“i’m sorry.”

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvZdcgdkWr

i looked in his eyes for a sign of humour

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUl4qCYgHb

but he was being

serious

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsAzda5Vmz

“but, jim, you’ve got to believe me

“ham is a very manly food

“it’s meat, you know”

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9gPwDRG5r

“i know”

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRS23B3VI2

i ate the whole thing

two of them actually

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVABv6VD7L

at least it’s food

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrvsUjDRjj

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX3jWHqXEf

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

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCMFTdTD9T

“we’re going hunting now”

uncle seth told them, excitedly

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGdDVTQjsb

“i thought we were done”

280Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDI7P4K2rw

“no, jim

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