我十八歲嗰年離家出走。走得好急，無詳細計劃過之後會點。唔理喇！我下定決心絕對唔食回頭草！我想盡辦法賺錢，除咗正職，仲有幾份兼職。捱到成個人殘晒，瘦到似初中生。收留我嘅朋友驚我隨時暴斃。我笑笑口同佢講：「我唔驚死，我最驚係唔知為乜而死。」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseVnO47UST

有時夜深人靜，我屈喺張床瞓唔著，碌嚟碌去，好自然會諗自己做咁多嘢為乜。我一直只係知道自己「唔想要乜」，無確實知道自己「想要乜」。斷斷續續諗咗好多晚，最後諗起以前一直想做作家。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIN1KiCnUp

我由中一開始鍾意寫小說。當年唔係家家戶戶有電腦，網絡小說唔盛行，我只可以投稿去報紙雜誌或者參加比賽。直至臨近會考，為咗專心溫書而「暫停」寫小說。點知考完之後又走去做暑期工，做完暑期工又要四圍撲學校……搞下搞下，我無再寫小說。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLnexP1xm0
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMAJImEsTg
寫小說係我夢想？我唔肯定，但係我開始再次寫小說。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFM1JCsLATU
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbMWDcAcpi
我份人好現實，唔會投放好多時間寫小說。只得忙裡偷閒，返工時候偷偷哋隨手攞張紙嚟寫。每次寫幾句，幾句幾句加埋就係一篇小說，所以我嘅成品大部份都係短篇。雖然我本身對長篇有情意結，不過而家都唔錯——有得寫已經好開心。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBi1QqezyR7

兩年半之後，終於夠錢租屋，唔使再打搞朋友。臨搬走嗰晚，朋友問我之後有乜計劃。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmARFe10qZ1
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0l9UT9x0Jq
「而家日做夜做，身體好易捱唔住。長遠嚟講，我一定要搵份高人工嘅正職，唔再做兼職。」我自細成日病，咁捱法無疑係搵命博。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNqCQjojrA
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIUXzICDzL
「你學歷唔高喎！」朋友即刻諗到重點。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjf7UkDvUE

「我知。一早有準備！」其實我已經唔聲唔聲鋪排咗兩年：「兩年前，我去學AutoCAD，而家做繪圖員，下一步係應徵做室內設計師。」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrhfB4qhvK
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCU7OfWHIY2
「識畫圖等如識設計？」朋友唔係好明。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj05katRiF
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqYUFY1KIR
「唔係。」我簡單講下呢兩年嘅心得：「重點係做設計師唔使考牌。只要有基本相關知識，加上有膽量、有口才，氹到客人落單，其餘嘅可以邊做邊學。」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbcNCk559N
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqlTKpUjKP
「真係？」朋友唔相信可以咁簡單。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeA1FILt2u

今日去見工。換好衫，化好妝，照鏡。我就快二十一歲，鏡中人睇落似三十一歲，老、殘、瘦、乾，根本唔係一個廿歲年青人。無計——我點都唔會返轉頭，唔返轉頭嘅代價就係不停向前走，唔可以停。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdR0p9MCWu0
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIqTsr4XC9
見工過程順利，老闆即場決定請我。被壓價在所難免，好彩最終價錢尚算合理。做咗幾日，老闆突然講起點解請我：因為我個樣夠老，睇落成熟，客人會比較放心。我表面假笑，個心就喺度講粗口。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhs8UTRsbT
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTftQYoYIcH
眨下眼又過咗四年幾，我將近二十五歲。我知道自己喺呢間公司大限將至：老闆為咗唔使畀「長期服務金」，所以公司內無一個員工可以過到五年。無所謂，東家唔打打西家！265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0NPCUREG8
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCxYRMgdm8
點諗到返新工半年之後撞啱經濟不景，公司無乜生意，一次炒幾個人，包括我。我又再搵工。好多公司以「經濟不景」為由乘機大幅壓價。我理解，但係接受唔到！265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgyxWXKua7

嬲。嬲到兩日無搵工，當係俾自己休息下。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjMmlD07s9
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIfM8wyuEJ
嬲完之後，又死死地氣搵工，同時搵細屋搬。比起住得唔舒服，我更加怕四圍問人借錢。嗰種感覺好慘，好似擘開好痛嘅傷口任人睇，而且對方睇完之後唔單止未必幫我，仲會畀面色我睇。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡak7nDZHuBN

我喺唐樓租咗間劏房。開頭幾日好唔習慣，硬係覺得自己地頭多咗好多閒雜人（即係其他劏房租客）。有兩個租客成日嗌交，嗌到好激烈，喊打喊殺。最終無特別事發生過，不過我次次都好驚。一個月之後，我勉強算係習慣咗新生活環境。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkU9dkhgaU
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqTqZenmDL
凌晨時分，馬路無車，大街無人，租客又瞓晒，四圍好靜。突然聽到有狗吠聲。我開窗望下隻狗喺邊。望下望下，我喊咗——點解我喺度望狗㗎？我唔係應該寫緊小說咩？265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVISDfBEQDV
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSg5ANv6JId
我已經好耐無寫小說。因為攰，因為心情差，因為忙，然後不知不覺無寫小說。而家呢？我呢一刻有番寫小說嗰種感覺喇，但係我無攞起紙筆，亦無拎起手提電話，因為我驚開燈，又驚要叉電——電費好貴！265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTJh6O06iP
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNkPFHjOOl
我做咁多嘢為乜？而家竟然連燈都唔敢開！265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiePrVfs6u
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QmNkkqmSi
我盡力唔喊出聲，不過最後依然嘈醒晒其他租客。粗口橫飛，我祖宗十八代同阿媽無一倖免。無幾耐之後，粗口突然停晒。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1HOW66HHy

「樓下火燭呀！」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3R5HyR1PJn
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfGZljb0Yk
太突然喇！我呆咗，以為自己發緊夢，直至房門出面越嚟越嘈，我清楚聽到其他租客嘅腳步聲、呼救聲、雜物碰撞聲……我呢個時候終於相信自己唔係發夢，真係咁黑仔，真係火燭！下意識即刻擸起手袋，跟住其他租客衝去後樓梯。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQhoCKXPUJ
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9xSI3HOMK
我今日見工用過呢個手袋，入面有齊履歷表、證書。至於手袋入面係咪有齊逃生三寶（濕毛巾、鎖匙、手提電話），我唔知，亦唔想理。我關心係咪搵到工多過係咪保得住條命！我驚搵唔到工多過無咗條命！265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2lYa29APB
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtznbeBsWQ4
好彩後樓梯無乜雜物，大家好快落到樓下，跟住消防員指示去到安全地方。遠遠望見自己間房窗口冒出濃煙，火舌慢慢由室內燒到出外牆。我個腦突然一片空白，第一次感受到咩叫「一無所有」——連情緒都無埋。過咗半個鐘，火勢越嚟越大，升做三級火，估計有排救唔熄。我跟其他租客去臨時庇護中心過夜。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaFcOynWJx

肚好餓，地好硬，冷氣好凍，所有災民個身都好臭。我覺得好討厭，但係我接受——銀包漏咗喺單位入面，而家我無錢、無提款咭喺身；如果唔接受，我就要搲爛塊面問人借宿借錢。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PC0ojvxgk

唔好講咩難受唔難受、尊嚴唔尊嚴，嗰啲全部係後話——生存到先再講。即使今晚唔問，遲早都係要問。喺補領到提款咭之前，點都要借錢租屋住或者買衫去見工。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVPUAHI7lP

撇除已婚人士同男性，其餘喺我手提電話通訊錄嘅人都會收到我message。由於係半夜，好多人瞓咗，回覆我嘅只有小貓三四隻，而且係算唔上朋友嗰幾個。佢哋八卦幾句之後，通通已讀不回。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBglFNqteDg

唯獨是有一個叫做「阿敏」嘅人問得比較詳細，似乎真係有心幫我。其實我完全唔記得邊個係阿敏。唔緊要，佢肯幫我就得。傾咗一陣，阿敏終於露出真面目：「我租間房俾你，每月租金三千蚊，包管理費、差餉，水電煤實報實銷。」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszwx2LoEsg
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8YKtHP5tP
我覺得幾抵，又安全過住劏房，於是立即應承。阿敏話自己住喺臨時庇護中心附近，可以即刻嚟接我。我執好手袋，企喺庇護中心門口等阿敏。佢話會著白色衛衣加灰色長褲過嚟。我四圍望，希望可以盡早見到佢個樣，記起佢係邊個，相認時就無咁尷尬。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡai3CQijyB0
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoGY5GbOex
等咗一陣，見到一個著白色衛衣、灰色長褲嘅身影行過嚟。咦？男人身形，應該唔係阿敏。我繼續四圍望，點知頭先個身影行到我面前停低：「張小姐！」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrqUpeOIcK
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX71LZgNgsg
「阿……阿敏？」我好驚訝——阿敏係個男人？哎呀！我竟然見到個「敏」字就直覺認定對方係女人！265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBiikuTzEJ

我攞部電話出嚟，寫寫寫寫寫，諗到乜就寫乜。即使上文唔接下理，即使執筆忘字，即使劇情老土到爛，我唔理！繼續寫寫寫寫寫，直到電話同個人都無電為止。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaned4G71iR

一星期後，我成功補領到提款咭，唔需要問人借錢。阿敏亦無叫我走，繼續俾我喺度住。原來阿敏已經大半年無做嘢，無諗住搵工，所以我成為咗佢唯一收入來源。阿敏對我好客氣，家頭細務全部由佢一個人搞掂。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHGQD0jqjg

生活順利平凡到單調乏味，好彩我唔再求啲乜，除咗寫小說。我特登搵份工作量唔多嘅工，有時間偷偷哋喺公司寫小說，放工之後亦有精神繼續寫。我喺小說網開咗個account上載小說。雖然讀者反應麻麻，但係我好開心、好滿足。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmBYFVMVF6

呢種平凡美好生活維持咗三年。直到我識咗小花……265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Hr0IpndMT
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHMjapPR8i
「小花」係有好多fans嘅網絡作者，我有追開佢啲作品。睇番記錄，佢寫咗只係半年就已經有好多fans。難怪嘅，佢真係寫得好睇！不過，點解小花會send message畀我？265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPa7j92tBrX

哇！小花讚我呀！265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNDhLdxJSV
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpivviG1Zhq
我好想問佢對我啲小說有咩感想，但係我唔敢問——靈感好多時候來自親身經歷，「問佢對我嘅小說有咩感想」變相等於「問佢對我嘅人生有咩感想」。我怕承受唔起，亦擔心佢會越挖越深，唔小心踩中我嘅痛處。無謂自討苦吃。我將注意力再次集中喺小花身上，講下對佢啲作品有咩感想、最鍾意邊個角色、有咩情節令我好深刻……265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi8YMbkR1F
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQfdgrC7vY
我哋越傾越開心。佢講咗好多創作時候遇到嘅困難同心路歷程。我好佩服小花，原來佢背後承受咁多壓力！講下講下，佢仲話個秘密我知！265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtSjzyZeWg

「我真心覺得你寫得好睇喎！」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CP6bu4ypL
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi1Q3PNfJx
我本來只係眼濕濕，見到呢句之後直頭喊出嚟。如果有機會，我梗係想出書啦！不過我真心覺得自己寫得普通，未去到可以出書嘅級數——我寧願一世出唔到書，亦唔願意拉低「作家」呢個名銜。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnruack1mFd

短短傾咗一陣，小花竟然三番四次講中我心事，搞到我心郁郁，隻手痕痕哋。當晚，我開始寫人生中第二篇長篇小說。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzd8nhNbsQ
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETdTz7SC4F
寫得好投入，我返工時、放工之後都係寫長篇，不知不覺荒廢咗短篇，好多日無喺小說網更新短篇小說集。可惜寫小說嘅過程好似人生咁，唔係努力就代表一定得，甚至乎寫寫下會突然唔知應該點樣繼續落去。即使預先準備晒故事大綱、人物設定、資料搜集，萬事俱備，點知偏偏欠東風，靈感話無就無。勉強跟住大綱去寫，只會寫到「形」，寫唔到「髓」。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEfNAC1j2e
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVAUtqkWq1
我正正係處於呢種狀態，好耐都回復唔到。衰乜嘢？一定係我唔夠料！如果係有料，我一早解決咗呢個問題，點會拖咁耐？安份守己寫下短篇咪好囉，做咩要寫長篇？面係人哋畀，架係自己丟，趁未有其他人發現，不如放棄……我好難過，連短篇都無心機寫。好彩嘅係現實生活中無人知道我放棄咗。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gJ75YyI9v
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbEOfsh7sq
無寫小說之後，我啲時間鬆動好多。放工之後去行街買嘢，星期六、日瘋狂煲劇或者幫手做家務。生活多咗好多內容，但係呢啲內容又無乜意思。人生變到好無聊，返番去嗰個「唔知為乜」嘅狀態。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0XrD6QRdJ

「寫得唔好？好睇到我晚晚上網睇你更新咗未。」頭先我啱啱入房嘅時候，阿敏就嚟打嬴，而家佢連續幾次走錯位，俾敵人殺咗，明顯個心亂晒。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HO4d1lZj4

「你自己講嘅！嗰日你喺小說網開account，好開心話我知你要去追夢。」聽到阿敏噉講，我即刻記起當時自己係幾有決心，亦意識到自己家陣係幾咁失敗。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqQ0CP5jwu

265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbs2vKtni4q
「我中學嗰陣已經好鍾意寫小說，不過文筆差，劇情老土……」我諗番起以前嗰種好純粹嘅開心。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCxgMk2jbo

半年後，我喺小說網開始連載長篇小說。讀者唔多，反應負面，絕大部份留言係話劇情好悶。好彩我早有心理準備，無論對住任何意見都好淡定，輕輕鬆鬆寫句「多謝留言」。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2PIXGVSsU
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7l3Eaa8y5r
連載咗無耐，小花嘅新書喺書局上架。作為「天字第一號fans」，我梗係即刻買一本翻屋企睇。後來知道小花有簽名會，我遞紙請假排隊攞簽名。場面好墟冚，大部份人係孭住書包嘅學生，似係一放學就趕過嚟。見到小花受歡迎，我戥佢好開心。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYshYT2VxZz

「你唔明㗎喇！我同小花呢啲係『知音情』！」我扮嬲，乘機大大力打阿敏手臂一下。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3fqAIBnPh

阿敏嘅笑容僵住，窒咗一秒先回復嬉皮笑臉個衰樣：「我淨係知道你做家務嘅時候好『滋陰』！」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4fjoEKGzP
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYmXTHW9Fs
三個月之後，我個連載終於完結。情況同初頭差唔多，負評佔絕大多數，不過我最在意嘅係有讀者留言話「期待你下一篇小說」！我開心到呢！即刻send message畀小花，想多謝小花鼓勵我，點知發現小花一早封鎖咗我！265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWudouI6jo

我上討論區睇下關於小花嘅post。好多網絡作者話小花「好假」，係唔係都讚其他網絡作者寫嘅小說好好睇，扮係欣賞佢哋嘅作品，其實係為咗博對方歡心，為自己製造人氣……睇咗唔係好多個post，我已經流晒眼淚鼻水——原來所有嘢都係假㗎！265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfqaa2JJeR

265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjCGQfYzHI
「我認為係haters喺度搞事，無需要太在意。」阿敏翹起雙手，半坐喺枱邊。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbb6Cf22vG
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSRbY3Pt5d
「你覺得……小花無……呃……我？」我冷靜咗少少。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3p31kLEmm
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTtUVzBNTT
「小花有呃你或者無呃你，對你影響好大咩？」唔知點解，阿敏語氣突然唔多好，有啲䒐䒏。「如果係咁，不如你問下自己，你係咪真係鍾意寫小說，或者你知唔知道咩係『鍾意』。」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKUCWajLDW
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDzj4BIXT9
「如果我唔知咩係『鍾意』，唔通你又知咩？你鍾意乜呀？你部電腦呀？定係你玩緊隻game嘅角色呀？」面對阿敏質疑，我火遮眼，不自覺開始人身攻擊。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWva97l2eFi
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡca9MYV6T84
阿敏笑咗笑，講嘢語調平淡到似係扮出嚟：「『鍾意』係遇到錯折都唔放棄，而我鍾意嘅係我以前個女朋友……」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LozY2lfGh
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dOmXyHxvc
阿敏坦白承認自己係獨子，無細妹，我住緊間房其實係佢以前女朋友嘅。佢為咗賺錢結婚，以前做地產經紀時好博命。日頭做得辛苦，夜晚放工自然會打機輕鬆下。但係喺佢女朋友眼中，佢就係懶，放工之後淨係識打機，乜嘢家務都唔做。有一次佢哋為家務問題嗌大交，佢女朋友嬲到離家出走，無返過嚟，仲轉工、改電話號碼、刪除社交帳號……265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxZvRaD9pC
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQU2WNwF99
阿敏開咗罐啤酒，一路飲，一路講，一路苦笑。「我清楚明白佢意思，唔會去煩佢。唯一問題係我個心放唔開。我知道自己唔應該繼續掛住佢，要重新出發、搵過另一個，不過我無動力去咁做。我以前做到成隻狗咁就係為咗賺多啲錢，畀更好嘅生活佢，等佢可以風風光光嫁俾我。自從佢走咗，我覺得返工完全無意義，每日只係想執到間屋整整齊齊……」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGWWXlPC7r
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiDdp2MWrJ
「即使你唔放棄，即使你等一世，佢依然永遠唔會返嚟！」我好擔心阿敏。感情易放難收，唔係單憑理智可以解決嘅事，即係阿敏可能成世走唔出陰影。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0nHQAbz9s
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEenz8ZEIe
「我明白，不過偏偏放唔開……」阿敏放低啤酒罐，篤咗我額頭一下。「你唔同呀！我處境被動，你就完全喺主動位，無論人哋講啲乜都唔會真正阻止到你——你有手有筆就可以繼續。所以『放棄』定『唔放棄』係你話事。」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIML7m2kUx
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViGIzwX0lp
阿敏好瀟灑咁轉身離開，邊行邊背對住我講：「以前幫你搵租盤，我印象你係個高傲嘅人。點知嗰晚收到你message，見你話自己住嘅劏房火燭，四圍問人借宿借錢。我本來抱住幸災樂禍心態，想睇下你個慘樣，睇夠就趕你走。點知你又好快重新振作，仲話要追夢。當刻我覺得好感動，想繼續見到你追夢個幸福樣，決定唔會趕你走……你放心，無論你而家決定『放棄』定『唔放棄』，我都唔會趕你走——我啱啱諗通自己應該點做。」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bxkm4C2xL
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaA6h4yKfo
第二日，阿敏開始搵工，好快有公司請佢。佢無再每日做晒所有家務，而係等放假日子同我兩份分嚟做，做完佢就返入房打機打到天昏地暗。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpDhdFt87C
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulTbHzbW5X
好佩服阿敏，話改就改，仲要改得咁徹底。反觀我自己，開口埋口話追夢，實質一遇上錯折就嗌放棄……265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA103fNGYJj
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPwcBvVnbl
到底我係咪真係鍾意寫小說？我諗咗呢個問題好耐，最後我決定唔再諗，單憑感覺去做——想寫就寫，唔想寫就放低支筆，唔會再為寫而寫。我發現自己寫小說嘅次數越嚟越頻密，投入程度越嚟越高，連大老闆喺身邊行過都唔知。結果我收到大信封，要即日離職。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQB5vK44Yc
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jlh39Q37r
阿敏一路打機，一路聽我講今日發生乜事。我講完之後，佢笑住問我：「你係咪好鍾意寫小說？」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKh5jjjsW1g
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbk32sMa6z
「唔知道。我成日嗌放棄，嗌完之後又繼續寫。情況好似唔成熟嘅情侶，成日分手，分完之後又復合。未諗清楚想點，所以放棄。冷靜之後諗清楚，又覺得其實係有愛。呢種愛係咪真係愛，我唔知。」我搬張圓凳埋電腦枱邊，一路飲熱朱古力，一路睇阿敏打機，一路認真回答。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGaeMAtzXC
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweNXOr1LKx
阿敏睄我一眼，即刻收起笑容：「你即係覺得自己唔成熟？」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg28msCPkW5
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyoY8yuF4i
「係，但係無諗住改變。以前啱啱離家出走之後，日算夜算，算盡所有方法令自己活得更好。點知一次經濟不景加一次火燭就乜都無晒。我算到盡都唔夠個天咁盡，真係人算不如天算……倒不如好好活在當下，活得盡興就要滿足。」以前嘅錯折已經好遙遠，對我影響遠遠不及而家手中嗰杯熱朱古力。我又飲一啖——好飽肚、好暖、好舒服。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fQPxe7Su8
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0m8nQNGYQ
阿敏啱啱打完一場，無開新一局。佢伸一伸懶腰，問我：「你點樣先會活得盡興？」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaWrfG99gC
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6Ob3POYpk
我諗都唔使諗，答：「寫小說。」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdWSnfKkxr
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZ3SGecbsg
「你邏輯有問題——話唔知自己係咪好鍾意寫小說，又好肯定咁話寫小說先會盡興——如果唔知，又點會咁肯定？」阿敏身體微微傾前，表情好認真，直望入我雙眼。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZDoW5pwqv
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WhnvArapW
「你以前讀書有無參加過陸運會？」我放低隻杯，坐直個人，同阿敏對望。「明明唔想參加，又唔可以唔參加，唯有揀自己比較有興趣、比較擅長嘅項目。本來目的係『苦中作樂』，但係因為練習時全情投入，結果不知不覺變得認真、在意結果，不知不覺忘記起初單調乏味嘅苦，不知不覺得到傷痕、眼淚、挫敗感、毅力、堅持、成長……」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvobFR4jzjb
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5CAglSRAI
「明明過咗三十歲，你仲講到自己係好青春、好熱血嘅中學生！」阿敏忍唔住大笑。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2oavDXQCe
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZe72svZn3
「『青春』、『熱血』係形容心態，唔係形容年紀。我去到七老八十都可以好青春、好熱血！」我預咗阿敏會笑我，完全無尷尬。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ430VpIv7Rt
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7BwFgCTRq
「係咩？」阿敏依然笑唔停。265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSh4imKktmX
265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡER5QgLeN2T
「唔信？我俾你見識下我嘅熱血青春！」趁阿敏唔為意，我撲前錫咗佢塊面一啖。「我中學嗰時就係噉樣示愛。」265Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0A7FNJxb7m
