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

uncle seth said he remembered me

i didn’t remember him

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoS8LT4kyKX

he wore camouflage pants

he had a scruffy moustache

and rough sideburns

he would cough every time he laughed

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOhY0MAVOV

he hugged pops when we arrived

and shook gail’s hand

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0wYzru19Q

then he shook my hand

firmly

and ruffled the hair on the top of my head

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKl707N6gBR

“nice to see you, jim” he grinned

showing less teeth than i expected

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1eTtzoNX3

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YgybZvdeT

we settled down

and put our luggage in the rooms where we were sleeping

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDptpY0aTg

i didn’t want to know

that gail and pops

would be in the same bed

but i hated myself for caring

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2OO1ezYkN

at least i had a room to myself

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqz6lSByVYB

there was no wifi at uncle seth’s house

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkE2hCK2md

and no reception

so there was no way for me to talk to pandora

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIDE5iKQKn

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

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwX9Vw0FaP

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDmRyITb9y

uncle seth woke me up at 5 in the morning

“come fishing with me”

he whispered

“it’ll be fun.”

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyOeQ1D8zx

“i’m a vegan”

i whispered back

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrNwuLUPqu

he scoffed

“no, really. you’ll love it.”

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0kCbZ6Gn8

he took me out to a bridge

over a lake

that was so quiet

i could hear my own heartbeat

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmIChCar1N

he showed me how to prepare a fishing rod

and we waited

lines in the water

for something to happen

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTsmwltjHw

uncle seth took a lunchbox out of his satchel

“hungry?”

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItc78W58Dv

i nodded.

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHz48idFxY

he handed me a bun

he must have prepared?

before?

5 in the morning?

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7mjycRHQ5

i looked inside

it was ham

and cheese

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHhgShFWGW

would i rather kill a pig?

or force a cow to lactate for me?

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkUvWQ3Vu7

why was life always like that?

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0hVAoMQN1

“ham and cheese?” i muttered, quietly.

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RpQUSBBPQ

“oh, yeah, boys don’t like pink food

“i’m sorry.”

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCNCmWNL4q

i looked in his eyes for a sign of humour

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRAU6iXbCn

but he was being

serious

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJg8jQmv23o

“but, jim, you’ve got to believe me

“ham is a very manly food

“it’s meat, you know”

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmFedjawPa

“i know”

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wV3jNqOzg

i ate the whole thing

two of them actually

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M8HSAwZpa

at least it’s food

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRD4T8XaLMJ

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqS4yClMkIy

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

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FbaaSqUx9

“we’re going hunting now”

uncle seth told them, excitedly

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRdyS1N7pZ

“i thought we were done”

248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp4v6o8etj

“no, jim

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