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

uncle seth said he remembered me

i didn’t remember him

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aCeETYfDy

he wore camouflage pants

he had a scruffy moustache

and rough sideburns

he would cough every time he laughed

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJ0qJtJhlN

he hugged pops when we arrived

and shook gail’s hand

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqTsIi2VDr

then he shook my hand

firmly

and ruffled the hair on the top of my head

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82B3GpyR9M

“nice to see you, jim” he grinned

showing less teeth than i expected

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0XxTu9MPk

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrj2xqkSxzR

we settled down

and put our luggage in the rooms where we were sleeping

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih9evWLR7O

i didn’t want to know

that gail and pops

would be in the same bed

but i hated myself for caring

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4T1qu5HyM

at least i had a room to myself

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9ci4n1WRb

there was no wifi at uncle seth’s house

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPpw2jiiHE

and no reception

so there was no way for me to talk to pandora

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIxCs1vtca

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

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZ6gU3CSap

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMmlI92KNj

uncle seth woke me up at 5 in the morning

“come fishing with me”

he whispered

“it’ll be fun.”

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90laxmhIhs

“i’m a vegan”

i whispered back

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODnp8bQJWC

he scoffed

“no, really. you’ll love it.”

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgK1ZEhphkF

he took me out to a bridge

over a lake

that was so quiet

i could hear my own heartbeat

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmy6wSuYPRX

he showed me how to prepare a fishing rod

and we waited

lines in the water

for something to happen

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpu2JYEfoW

uncle seth took a lunchbox out of his satchel

“hungry?”

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQslrNbAalZ

i nodded.

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVOkGGCefD

he handed me a bun

he must have prepared?

before?

5 in the morning?

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Co6ve5ivg

i looked inside

it was ham

and cheese

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpPcsme8p1

would i rather kill a pig?

or force a cow to lactate for me?

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOeJViDOR9

why was life always like that?

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMhkKU161z

“ham and cheese?” i muttered, quietly.

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYnPOxl3J9

“oh, yeah, boys don’t like pink food

“i’m sorry.”

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xIz6E6Nyx

i looked in his eyes for a sign of humour

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaR5NwrFg9

but he was being

serious

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUauAt2FWn

“but, jim, you’ve got to believe me

“ham is a very manly food

“it’s meat, you know”

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuxclzgnUj

“i know”

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVLOoA2yIL

i ate the whole thing

two of them actually

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2xBsGLNv8

at least it’s food

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvp00BnCmN

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuT1LMMYx7W

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

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGd3nys9s5

“we’re going hunting now”

uncle seth told them, excitedly

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixMMXJHXOt

“i thought we were done”

270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8hdq6ZKvx

“no, jim

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