CANNON
EASY PEASY, LEMON FUCKING SQUEEZY.
Except it wasn’t that easy, not by a long shot it wasn’t.
“In the army huh. My cousin was a seal of some sort, five years in the TEAMS and he came back as a nutjob”, Ted or Jake ( I couldn’t fucking tell them apart anyway) said and I swallowed his insinuation of ‘ all military men are fucking nuts’ with a small forced smile.
Try watching your pals blow into smithereens and then tell me how you would react after. We weren’t necessarily whack in the head but whatever shit we saw in the open field stayed imbued in us like a fucking drug.
So, to Ted’s statement, I simply looked him in the eye and fought the urge to ask him whether he had ever shot anything except his seed in his wife’s pussy. I wouldn’t be surprised if his kids weren’t his anyway. He looked like a bad shot. In fucking everything. I could bet my money on it.
