我對隸屬同組的小妹報以虛弱苦笑。與她向來關係不錯,概略知道彼此家庭狀況——同是經濟支柱,一屋老嫩。聽到她主動提出幫忙,我除了感激,更多的是感覺羞恥。494Please respect copyright.PENANAxBO5MBAFJ3

唉!多講無謂,反正既成事實。倒不如動腦筋思考如何向妻子說明狀況。494Please respect copyright.PENANAGHkC07iwcL

疫情關係,全球經濟不景氣。我和妻子預料這段艱難時期將會維持好一段日子,早已節衣縮食,積穀防饑。但我們慢慢沒有想到老闆會有此一著:工作日數減半意味薪金減半。494Please respect copyright.PENANAIMKZMJoc1L

供樓開支無法削減,父母醫療開支不能削,孩子教育開支不能減。唯一可以削減的只有我們夫妻倆的使用……494Please respect copyright.PENANA21eJEyrTuG

飯後,兩老早睡,兒女溫習,妻子洗碗。我怯怯到廚房去。494Please respect copyright.PENANAMIipXCEnmC
494Please respect copyright.PENANAMkZGaae2W3
「老婆……」494Please respect copyright.PENANAmtn1KBumxg

妻子搶佔發言先機,心裡不安的我更覺虛怯。494Please respect copyright.PENANAp14VyoFJyi
494Please respect copyright.PENANAF6gHIVpzyr
「是。明天開始,只需星期二、四上班。」494Please respect copyright.PENANA0hXgEsVpOU
494Please respect copyright.PENANAXEB29ObGdu
「嗯。」494Please respect copyright.PENANAa59KIw5JVp
494Please respect copyright.PENANAmQcveeGg2C
妻子沒再多話,專心洗碗。她的冷靜淡然在我意料之外,卻又在情理當中。無力改變現實,也就只得接受和硬撐,呼天搶地無補於事。494Please respect copyright.PENANAyWMNLSp4M5
494Please respect copyright.PENANATcxEGAY4Tj
我回睡房躺在床上發愣。494Please respect copyright.PENANAAoTTXgq6Kx
494Please respect copyright.PENANA1Xh3APp8kN
無能。無力。無奈。494Please respect copyright.PENANApl5kpDQlfO

不知道……
日出。星期二。上班員工人數銳減,辦公室冷清不少。494Please respect copyright.PENANApfItSWumgV

啟動電腦。電腦桌面背景是站在浮冰的北極熊。毛色暗啞,骨瘦如柴,神色虛弱。想必多日找不到食物,飢腸轆轆。絕望?誰管你的!天地蒼茫,白皚皚一片。無論北極熊是否存在,北極仍是北極,我仍在地球另端為家庭財政傷透腦筋。494Please respect copyright.PENANAp7smi0WckC
494Please respect copyright.PENANADmHmgn8S7U
午餐。翻熱食物。是昨夜飯餸,白飯菜心排骨。白飯黏糯,菜心苦黃,排骨柴乾。想要一支豉油。下班後去買吧!不了,豉油不是必需品,不該浪費金錢買奢侈品。494Please respect copyright.PENANAJGXlJwVCyY
494Please respect copyright.PENANAhRfprQDi4H
下班時間,加班。加班同事還不少。沒法子。減少工作日數不代表減少工作量,也不代表工作進度可以放慢。494Please respect copyright.PENANAkCYh7sWray
494Please respect copyright.PENANA55Iv0kxFNg
每次想及時間、日子,位於電腦屏幕右下方的時鐘就會顯得格外礙眼:它在提醒我妻子的飯菜變涼了、孩子掛念我的心情變淡了、父母與我相處的時間變短了;它在催促我加快手腳完成當前項目,接下來的工作將以排山倒海之勢襲來;它在教導我人生大道理,一寸光陰一吋金,吋金難買寸光陰,更何況加班沒有加班費……494Please respect copyright.PENANA9aN87Jfdc2
494Please respect copyright.PENANAQmqL6mvWrg
關機,正式下班。心情太壞,說服不了自己留下來。回首,同事們仍在埋頭苦幹。理解,但無法奉陪到底。494Please respect copyright.PENANASNUSyAj7zm

大街上,人影疏落,商店無燈。車站無人,想必有一班次剛剛離站。等。車頭燈或白或黃,在黑夜暗色環境當中尤其刺眼眩目。節慶煙花,演唱會螢光棒,無燈飯廳裡的金魚缸,床頭小燈,被窩裡的手提電話屏幕……腦袋失控,只管想著一堆毫無意義、不著邊際的雜亂畫面。累?是吧。494Please respect copyright.PENANAlpM9hkfCQH

我敷衍回應妻子幾句後也就洗澡去。熱水沖去臉上油塵,皮膚霎時變得乾淨而乾燥,微癢微痕。或許每個人都是因為這些不著眼的小耗損而老去。無可避免。無可奈何。是否只得順從?是否只得接受?不順從又如何?不接受又如何?494Please respect copyright.PENANAaK8FBfCMQU

努力改變過,極力掙扎過,然後一切依舊——世界依舊不似預期。494Please respect copyright.PENANA0pFhpwhTtL

通體蝕骨的無能無力無奈。494Please respect copyright.PENANA69TBYFXwKo

浴後,睡床上。妻子望著天花發愣。天花燈沒有亮著,光源自窗外滲入,剛巧側照伏在天花的小蟲,以誇張得滑稽的比例拉長小蟲影子,如怪物,如鬼魅。494Please respect copyright.PENANA1tCzz3ur4t
494Please respect copyright.PENANAUp9KfCTZLY
「你的同事有沒有跟老闆反映近來遇上的問題?」494Please respect copyright.PENANAjUcg4hlJNh

「沒有。大家都在座位上邊罵邊工作。」494Please respect copyright.PENANAyUaYeK9Ggw
494Please respect copyright.PENANAk3j2QEfYsq
妻子乾笑一聲,側身面窗睡去。494Please respect copyright.PENANAoLwp5252ol
494Please respect copyright.PENANAHwlaETIWnW
我實在笑不出口,呆望天花數蟲子。494Please respect copyright.PENANAd5lQUl6LPb
