兩人湊近一看,一名臉色蒼白的老婦倒在地上,菜籃內的水果灑了滿地,善心的路人正手忙腳亂地幫忙撿著。41Please respect copyright.PENANAPbT0DmybRS
41Please respect copyright.PENANA5chdWRdG4C
「她……」司徒仲寧轉頭想跟魏晴亞講話,卻不見她蹤影,再回神過來發現她已經蹲在老婦人旁邊。41Please respect copyright.PENANA6vSvYQ8pFP
41Please respect copyright.PENANApUzBlfl7en
「阿姨,妳聽得到我講話嗎?妳還好嗎?妳沒事吧」魏晴亞輕拍著老婦人的肩膀。41Please respect copyright.PENANAgxo2gAelIL
41Please respect copyright.PENANAnbjKgeImcN
老婦人的眼皮顫了顫,半睜開眼看著她,嘴唇掀了掀只發出微弱的氣音。41Please respect copyright.PENANA9cfpDCHxgC
41Please respect copyright.PENANATtqAdX9hZk
「阿姨,妳有什麼慢性病或其他不舒服的地方嗎?」她問。41Please respect copyright.PENANAKtbKQl3lQ8
41Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4e353Q2mo
老婦人緩緩地搖了搖頭。41Please respect copyright.PENANA5qOIu3PqGH
41Please respect copyright.PENANAhJcFNcBr74
魏晴亞看向人群中的司徒仲寧開口:「仲寧,可以請你幫我把阿姨的腳抬起來嗎?」41Please respect copyright.PENANAHYNq4U6FMq
41Please respect copyright.PENANAQAbJ78IZVJ
「好,沒問題。」司徒仲寧聞言上前,將手上的提袋放至腳邊,輕握住老婦人的腳踝後抬高。41Please respect copyright.PENANAT7YCXdRBb2
41Please respect copyright.PENANAxWLX7bMITl
「應該只是暈眩,腳抬高讓血液回流就會舒服一點,沒事的。」她輕聲地安慰老婦人。41Please respect copyright.PENANAun8G9CaENN
41Please respect copyright.PENANAIxPO4ckznp
過了些會,臉上恢復血色的老婦人舉手示意可以放下她的腳,在魏晴亞的攙扶下坐起身。41Please respect copyright.PENANA3cSsPNQyCf
41Please respect copyright.PENANAukRRdcGqeA
「謝謝你們,我好多了……不好意思麻煩大家了。」拿過路人幫忙撿起的水果,她一一道謝。41Please respect copyright.PENANAia4rGQL1O2
41Please respect copyright.PENANAJxgXcPGnPV
看老婦雙唇仍蒼白,魏晴亞關心地問:「阿姨妳還好嗎?要不要再多休息一下?」41Please respect copyright.PENANAI8BDeSUNtO
41Please respect copyright.PENANAD5yZ64hhkF
「我沒事,可能只是被太陽曬昏頭了。小姐,謝謝妳啊,還有這位先生也是,謝謝你們。」老婦人用冰涼的手緊握著她的手表示感謝。41Please respect copyright.PENANAPLloIDgefa
41Please respect copyright.PENANAUsvCGRVmXS
「阿姨妳住哪裡?不然我陪妳走回去吧。」擔心她半路不適,魏晴亞提議道。41Please respect copyright.PENANAYKeNQwBNyN
41Please respect copyright.PENANAjfOUUy49ix
「不用了,我搭公車,兩站而已,一下車就到家了,不用麻煩你們了。」不想造成他人困擾的老婦推辭了她的好意。41Please respect copyright.PENANA6952L4m14z
41Please respect copyright.PENANASDonbX1uqO
見老婦態度堅決,魏晴亞退而道:「那我陪妳到公車站吧!」 41Please respect copyright.PENANAjmvGyEA7u0
41Please respect copyright.PENANAIvBhKV4f9u
老婦正想再次婉拒,司徒仲寧笑著接過老婦手上的菜籃用招牌笑臉對著她說:「阿姨,就讓我們陪妳去等公車吧!不然她可能會擔心得晚上睡不著。」41Please respect copyright.PENANAdo1oVtlapf
41Please respect copyright.PENANAYtcChNHPr7
見兩人堅持,老婦也不再推拒,帶著歉意地對兩人笑著道謝。「那真是謝謝你們了,真的不好意思麻煩你們了。」41Please respect copyright.PENANAO7zR6JpUAu
41Please respect copyright.PENANAYpMtxd9VB5
魏晴亞攙著老婦,司徒仲寧提著兩手生鮮蔬菜水果跟在後頭直到公車站,送了一再道謝的老婦上車,魏晴亞請公車司機幫忙注意老婦後目送公車離去。41Please respect copyright.PENANAg5H15YMjuw
41Please respect copyright.PENANAOPrB0b3EQB
「妳做得很好呢。」司徒仲寧的讚美喚回了她的注意力。41Please respect copyright.PENANAAs6IepdNzB
41Please respect copyright.PENANAjeeqf3wTmA
「咦?」魏晴亞先是一愣,然後淺淺一笑。「這沒什麼。飛機上,尤其是長程線常會有乘客過於疲累而暈眩,我會的也只有這種簡單的處理,若是其他嚴重的病症我也無能為力。」41Please respect copyright.PENANAtY5YNwud7B
41Please respect copyright.PENANAUb5gzjpth6
「像我,就算自己有能力也不會這樣做。」他笑著瞥了一眼略顯詫異的她,聳了聳肩。「對我來說,要先學會自保,然後才去考慮幫助別人。像剛剛的情況有太多的可能性,或許對方是騙子裝病然後趁機誣賴妳,或者有其他同夥,趁妳上前幫忙時搶劫,或是直接把妳擄走,這些都是有可能的。我唯一會做的,頂多就是打電話幫忙叫救護車。」41Please respect copyright.PENANAuVfevMVL9z
41Please respect copyright.PENANAxkde30k2n6
他知道自己的一番話可能會讓自己被畫上自私的等號,但這就是他從小被灌輸的價值觀,無需隱瞞。41Please respect copyright.PENANANU5WjpXGJ4
41Please respect copyright.PENANAb4pJVKFfxy
司徒仲寧說的這些的確都是極有可能發生,但卻是魏晴亞從不曾想過的,她一時感到啞口無言。41Please respect copyright.PENANA3r801PIRTA
41Please respect copyright.PENANAEos4MVyobp
從小在魏嵐熙的愛與關懷中滋養長大,有如沐浴在溫暖的陽光下,而陽光照射不到的黑暗角落是她不曾踏足的,看著眼前總是笑得燦爛的司徒仲寧,她瞬間了解到他可能就是來自於那個她所陌生的黑暗角落,心中竟有些不捨。41Please respect copyright.PENANAwRTNcfTVGY
41Please respect copyright.PENANARpt0lF9zFm
「看來你以前身處的環境很嚴苛呢……真是辛苦你了。在台灣,大部分的人都還是善良的,你可以稍微放輕鬆一點了。」她溫言道。41Please respect copyright.PENANAIsDMj9FRVE
41Please respect copyright.PENANAryzTDE4yTa
沒有批判與不認同,魏晴亞的暖言寬慰出乎他的意料。她笑臉的溫柔像暖陽,斜射而入照亮他幽暗的心室。41Please respect copyright.PENANAct2GE0yWYo
41Please respect copyright.PENANAYIQpwVCorg
「嗯,我想是吧。」他回以一笑,或許是正中午的太陽發威,讓他覺得心窩微微發熱。41Please respect copyright.PENANAr9gThlsVib
41Please respect copyright.PENANAL7wXP52rNe
「還有,謝謝你剛剛的幫忙。」她笑眼一瞇,誠摯地說。41Please respect copyright.PENANAcWLpv5E84V
41Please respect copyright.PENANAJB7OvWK6Lx
「那沒什麼。」他爽朗一笑,但隨即像想到什麼挑起一邊濃眉。「那我可以要求加菜當作報答嗎?」41Please respect copyright.PENANAedsqsOGMxf
41Please respect copyright.PENANAnJLAb91xvl
「呵呵,當然可以呀。」她臉上笑靨如花。「那我們趕快回去吧!都中午了。」41Please respect copyright.PENANAjFqfxCeiQr
「走吧。」司徒仲寧提著菜與她並肩而行。41Please respect copyright.PENANArtXHRT0tqF
41Please respect copyright.PENANAuq5vfRt4Se
初夏的台北已是溽熱濕悶,鼻尖呼吸著呼嘯而過的汽機車廢氣,即使是自己長大的地方,這個城市對他來說仍稱不上迷人,但看著瞇眼微笑的她,他覺得自己似乎多了個喜歡上這裡的原因。41Please respect copyright.PENANAaCd9Aik3TF
41Please respect copyright.PENANAzKP6L6efX5
回到華廈,司徒仲寧提菜跟著魏晴亞來到她的房門前。41Please respect copyright.PENANAfiLpBjpGUl
41Please respect copyright.PENANAzzBAH2uwiD
她開了門,後方的他理所當然的要幫她把東西拿進去,魏晴亞看著自己十五坪大的套房,容納兩人雖綽綽有餘,但想到自己跟他相識也不過幾天,孤男寡女獨處一室有些尷尬,她用身子頂住門轉身面對司徒仲寧,伸手接過食材。41Please respect copyright.PENANAAf104PURaa
41Please respect copyright.PENANAgOIQYSCcGE
「謝謝你幫我提回來,等我煮好了再拿過去給你吧!」41Please respect copyright.PENANAtnAqbMusW8
41Please respect copyright.PENANA8PlLU5xmQa
聽懂她委婉的語意,司徒仲寧也從善如流地將東西交給她。「那就先謝謝妳了,如果有需要幫忙再找我吧!」41Please respect copyright.PENANAKA9ibcRtVn
41Please respect copyright.PENANAPfACfGQckA
「好,謝謝你。那先這樣囉。」對他嫣然一笑,她後退一步讓開身子,門自動闔上。41Please respect copyright.PENANAndyLZXZJLa
41Please respect copyright.PENANAd5cOHvjpQq
看著闔起的門,司徒仲寧無奈地搔了搔頭,扯起一邊的嘴角看來有些自嘲。41Please respect copyright.PENANAGiDdJYHdh6
在夜生活光彩奪目的紐約他自然和不少女人打過交道,男女互有好感吃飯小酌,微醺後情慾浮動釋放費洛蒙,每個步驟都是他再也熟悉不過的。41Please respect copyright.PENANAvy8pIpUeL6
41Please respect copyright.PENANA6UMUnxqSn1
雖然沒有刻意引導,但他以為今天也該會像是以往一樣的標準作業流程,一步接一步那樣理所當然,直到看著魏晴亞闔上的門他才覺得自己被打了個無聲的巴掌,提醒了他,他現在所在的是另一個世界,不是那個慾望沉淪的深淵。41Please respect copyright.PENANAjbjWsUKC4q
41Please respect copyright.PENANA2rQZsuKJsx
「這裡不是紐約啊。」他喃喃地道。41Please respect copyright.PENANASFL009atd8
