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

uncle seth said he remembered me

i didn’t remember him

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8glsifO93r

he wore camouflage pants

he had a scruffy moustache

and rough sideburns

he would cough every time he laughed

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKZo6erLRa

he hugged pops when we arrived

and shook gail’s hand

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdTA35aNVK

then he shook my hand

firmly

and ruffled the hair on the top of my head

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0bPZHKgt7

“nice to see you, jim” he grinned

showing less teeth than i expected

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pzY04b8Xi

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyr9rlmNYx

we settled down

and put our luggage in the rooms where we were sleeping

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRbnwmEmKH

i didn’t want to know

that gail and pops

would be in the same bed

but i hated myself for caring

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhMYkExjND

at least i had a room to myself

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIYKogMw08

there was no wifi at uncle seth’s house

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcbROQBr1O

and no reception

so there was no way for me to talk to pandora

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLZ2KYmVwC

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

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ15hacfLIE

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOijVzD3zv8

uncle seth woke me up at 5 in the morning

“come fishing with me”

he whispered

“it’ll be fun.”

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwP1u3UX4Z6

“i’m a vegan”

i whispered back

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEfLi44qZ9

he scoffed

“no, really. you’ll love it.”

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVjCdQSxgG

he took me out to a bridge

over a lake

that was so quiet

i could hear my own heartbeat

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoARFfSR8eB

he showed me how to prepare a fishing rod

and we waited

lines in the water

for something to happen

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBysD99eYE

uncle seth took a lunchbox out of his satchel

“hungry?”

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9M70HsXrG

i nodded.

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xxXVh1lT4

he handed me a bun

he must have prepared?

before?

5 in the morning?

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBef5hn9z5

i looked inside

it was ham

and cheese

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyjnHtGWE1

would i rather kill a pig?

or force a cow to lactate for me?

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhC6DYHBgs

why was life always like that?

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbqFdu5IPG

“ham and cheese?” i muttered, quietly.

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLSJajgZdJ

“oh, yeah, boys don’t like pink food

“i’m sorry.”

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6ZAIlRh2a

i looked in his eyes for a sign of humour

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpfWn5NEw5

but he was being

serious

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7T1SUUgRQ1

“but, jim, you’ve got to believe me

“ham is a very manly food

“it’s meat, you know”

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDODSpoG47E

“i know”

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcdsqn2HKs

i ate the whole thing

two of them actually

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71veW4vho3

at least it’s food

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnxyJPGiia

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaR0dPnl3o

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

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomsA5usj22

“we’re going hunting now”

uncle seth told them, excitedly

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡek65yRHLgA

“i thought we were done”

247Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLp58o5RFY

“no, jim

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