「自小經常遇到怪人。當中有男有女，性格迥異，唯一共通點是『老』。這麼形容似乎不太準確。其實我不知道他們的真實年齡，純粹覺得看來年紀大——對於一個小孩子，四十歲、五十歲、六十歲、七十歲的人看來分別不大。」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZGVJrEEzh

長大後會跟身邊人分享遇上怪人經過。他問我為何不拒絕或不逃跑，我說感覺怪人沒有惡意。他問我如何肯定對方沒有惡意，我笑答單憑感覺。他先是一愣，後來輕嘆一聲：「物以類聚。」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXq5YNWbpRY
午餐時間。372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa99T88UQrK
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOclzQ5Ss6E
同學們問我要否一起用膳，我搖首婉拒，說有約在身。372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZD88vSVDs

獨自前往茶餐廳，在向隅一張二人枱坐下。侍應給我兩杯淡茶，我說自己佔一座位而已。372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUClNt3znr2

點餐後五分鐘，熱騰騰的吉列豬扒飯到來。還沒吃上兩三口，一個不認識的大嬸坐到對面空位，同樣點了吉列豬扒飯。372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYo2R3CrhC

數分鐘過去，她的午餐還沒到來。她瞄了瞄我的吉列豬扒飯，開始作怪。372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVYJhcWoeX
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoGA68epbi
「好吃嗎？」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXrfxShQcO
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BiiiWLWKd
「嗯。」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxs7lagujG
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdzV3l4EDD
「你要多吃一些。你太瘦了！」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXG6TXSpWb
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcwzH6yhHx
「嗯。」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqNqjt11Gq
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSm7SPjXam
「不過下次千萬不要點『吉列』食物——你臉上已有很多暗瘡。」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmethzmMM9Q
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYndTkMXVg
「嗯。」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RHngDUP0a
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxsdMhBlLa
「我告訴你一條清熱秘方吧！（一堆中草藥名字）在藥材店可以輕易買到。」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARUqNBYnHT
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq043e2DUO6
「嗯。」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaErGhc6zT4
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSdqEWPgnQ
「要好好護理皮膚。說不定會隨時遇到真命天子！」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTtZGiEsJQ
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIodV3TPGg
「嗯。」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhke3eQzpiV

「丈夫數年前去世以後，我一直以為自己這種年紀、這種外貌該不會再遇到甚麼好人好事，誰料上個月……」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkfqh9vQvd
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KE8aAHfDA
她突然頓住。我知道她正在等待我作出反應，例如好奇追問或是報以微笑。我選擇後者——我對她的故事不感興趣，無法假裝好奇。372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lwNTrer3H
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSigpFNGitV
「誰料上個月在社區中心遇到他！他前天還邀請我周末一起飲茶！」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCvD49EtnO
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXiURZauoL
「真好。」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopOd0moAn5

同枱十五分鐘，這是我第一次給予正式回應，順道仔細打量大嬸。372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97wp8xSY4P
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOS4nhXEmB
平平無奇的中年大嬸。樣子不美不醜，身材不肥不瘦不高不矮，衣著不新潮亦不土氣。過目即忘那一類。372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqy8M3r1V3M
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcCTO3xpPq
「對啊！我真的很高興！」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOIUfjs7O2
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1zD4ZVLFQ
「嗯。」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDw4Byb1Dw5
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdve8GaYbP6
我再次冷對大嬸。因為她根本不在意我是否在意——她只需一雙願意聆聽的耳朵。372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtCwZNpQHV
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHIYkPaF5D
我願意借她一對耳朵，聽聽她無處可訴的快樂。372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6y3b1Ag3b
他說我奇怪，怎麼會聽陌生人說心事。372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIo2AUlixF7
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWtaBbmzqh
我笑，為他未嘗寂寞滋味而高興。372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnN6eaqsf8U
372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6yfur5GNL
「謝謝你聽我說怪人的故事。」372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTq5bGIKw0

「別客氣，怪人。」
