近來回到小學，看見越來越多舊人，踏足在矮小的樓梯，都使她不斷想起過去。畢業後沒有再行過這種高度的樓梯，成年人而言頗為矮小的她可以一步踩兩級。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaggvA5u6Mg
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5Q5OzZY5T
所有事都湧現，直至她感到自己的頭腦已經滿溢，無法再裝載。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVyelXQw30

與第一次在學留守功課輔導班的拘緊不同——同學們的拘束，他們已見慣見熟林蓁，開始不守規矩——她倒是不介意他們有點不守規矩，畢竟，已上了全日學的學生，注意力有限，何況他們都在兒童期，「守規矩」如此需要後天約束的事，本就不易做到。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8o8DywTyn
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKePer3oFgK
她只是會悠悠地請學生們：就算聊天，手也不要停止寫作。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6dj6qGwUn
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKmSwf0jML
初時，他們如果遇到不懂的功課題目，只會坐在座位上發呆，或是問附近的同學；現在，他們會舉手，大聲叫喚：「Miss！」無論簡單或艱澀，通通發問。這也許代表她已不會令人感到陌生了。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtZ4EXK2dM
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVNjzTGEQC
漸漸，學生之間的聊天聲音越來越大，連她也可以加入對話。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59bQ93fXPv

一個半小時過去，順利結束。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSPEfUbXY6

林蓁回家，便將洗手間的燈膽換上——320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGSFqMeWxn
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTh09NhcmT
那是前天父親著她「明天去換」的燈膽，可是昨夜她在周立沖處留宿。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDCJMKZc3P
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5454410jXx
應是是錯覺，換了新燈泡，便覺得家裡明亮了許多，比起以前用舊燈泡時更甚。因此，牆身的壁癌便被光襯得更清晰，霉霉綠綠，硬誇上些美感便說那是如雲如霧。也許是抽氣扇不夠強勁的緣故，所以無法及時將濕氣抽走，然後形成了一股無法散去的霉氣。然後，如影如形，一直存在牆壁上，成為家裡最大皮膚的一份子，班駁得很。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o5SXRGWYj
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OBPgWbhnl
父親罵罵咧咧：「做咩琴晚唔返嚟？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pKfmwR2AK
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vZeb89wag
她不應。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehfWnK92o9
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0s5S2bfxt
「明明叫咗你琴日就買嚟換，而家先做！廁所無燈好危險㗎，你知唔知？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5o77iuTmy
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUMOGQZyqP
她不應。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4fkTU5fWm
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRNYfjhxVY
「喂！又唔出聲，叫你做少少嘢都唔得咩？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUkGpUcs1f
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TFFqPVoId
她不應。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BoDhqZfYf
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eEqDrWXlH
「我係你老竇嚟！關心吓你琴日唔返嚟咋嘛！你唔高興咩？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6fMH8VqdX
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8cn8wM64T
她終於應：「我成日都唔返嚟㗎啦。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDEBhfH8Oa
他沉默。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfoLn1HdUe
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJhwBYtVzV
家裡常常沉默，沉默確實也是林蓁心中家的常態。只是近年，父親說多了好多話，他會說話開口發問、要求、索取，然後，要求他人回應，如果不應他，便會說說說直至她覺得煩。要是以前，他只管一次過說好多話，完全不求他人應，反正他不介意別人怎看。近年是介意了，或是希望有人和他說話聊天交流了，不願再自說自話，才會不停說些問題或內容，直到人家回應。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGZC3Xvbuq
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lbUMwUhcZ
林蓁通常是為了讓他不要再說，才開口回應。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJicmTRkon5
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL3H85OTWd
父親說：「咁所以我而家咪一次過關心你囉，唔使原因㗎嘛。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRf5Uqt8zo
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSWOPdS1PG
「唔使原因，但你有，因為想我幫你換燈膽。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2etmbCJpJh
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNSzbJwhuY
她語氣平靜。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieDfxtMLmZ
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhojlzvE4I
她太熟知這一套，很多想要向她傾訴心事的人，都會首先煞有介事地問她近況，然後再進入自身故事的正題，完成流暢的轉折。她不會拆穿，反而覺得這是一種禮貌，至少讓她好受一點——他們有考慮到她的感受呢，也怕突兀。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iR6N9DNNX
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgj4n5aQVh
「衰女包！我生你養你，你咁樣諗我？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4gnZIZ12t
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcnA8peTuU
她不應。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrelnmPDSE
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeo2wl85qz
「又成日唔返屋企，係咪拍拖啦？唔使理老竇啦？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVHCvm1Mbq
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxy38ZSb6w
她不應。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8qMMhg95j
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOSbAmWFzS
「都唔知係咪喺出面識埋哂啲飛仔，教到你咁忤逆。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CAizr1rVg
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGmyktDLGD
她不應。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYHjzUYCrR
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9eFIjJ0XE
「出面啲男人邊度會真心鍾意你吖！你咪亂咁信人。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQwIgcpm9H
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFO6FSjMt2B
她不應。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXkdgZsRBs
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreBg3Ocm2o
「而家有毛有翼識飛啦？出咗身又唔見你畀家用！」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N2cJEb79t
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlbymVy83p
她終於應：「我仲未畢業。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpJjJ1BrZ6
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mz8GJ1a5y
語氣始終平靜。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMpl2mt4yV
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnFYIXsUK7
林蓁時時自省，到底從什麼時候開始，這個家就剩下她和父親呢？母親找其他男人了，家姐和細佬相繼出國讀書，遺棄她一個。是不是她做錯了什麼，才落得今日呢。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDywzwM0vO
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7PtqvXw22
自從家姐離開，她便毫無預兆地代替了被打父親的角色。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2MBmJmQyL
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VAmq1vsRm
林蓁不解，她又不像家姐，已不會頂嘴，平日有溫順臉容，斟茶遞水家務樣樣做齊，會替母親搥背，會照料弟弟的功課；作為一個二女兒，她已做得很多，那年，她才十三歲。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKAWpbas8k
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XW25u8Joy
「啫係就嚟畢業啦，覺得自己好大個啦嘛！」父親又說。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0v6EzIhpV
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNR8QAHjqt
她始終不應。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXPcCOYBjI
