「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。」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cShZxVkJs

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。」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMl2aYixJ1
午餐時間。417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4Gmvdkx9V
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhH1BpLoQY1
同學們問我要否一起用膳，我搖首婉拒，說有約在身。417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzixvJcSeuU

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。417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaeFm5HNAa

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。417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGRGDMlVd9

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。417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2tQzNsEA2
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyE4TCP5hk
「好吃嗎？」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36zzxjOKo6
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOaD4msCBB
「嗯。」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFJmua2aQd
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4t4xVyoj2U
「你要多吃一些。你太瘦了！」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYDGDs1LT4
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlgc6lDONU
「嗯。」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzslT1ij0hp
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOykCAkYDTd
「不過下次千萬不要點『吉列』食物——你臉上已有很多暗瘡。」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3N33sxjQxw
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0onYpvaMN
「嗯。」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3detZnAaI

「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。」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznkkXf4bQW
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWBA0i4Cog
「嗯。」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPExePg03B4
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VceqejQmW
「要好好護理皮膚。說不定會隨時遇到真命天子！」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdsIeenCkh
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7iqigZeSP
「嗯。」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeQt7CQi0j

「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……」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3Jn5y5rqR
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DGKpkn5TV
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。417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MinB4Mw0n
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykVFG3aDt1
「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！」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqCtSLcAf6
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJlM8UUczs
「真好。」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMC5zhOwtF

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。417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0129cUuP2
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kFIoSemgf
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。417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNk0qtHnjRv
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybnmiOKlOS
「對啊！我真的很高興！」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FNr5KLblw
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6rOV8Slt3
「嗯。」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmXBoeRcDe
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDFYKqY0cy
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。417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf68XrjAAGB
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyavDBLFjw
我願意借她一對耳朵，聽聽她無處可訴的快樂。417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNZil9l8cK
他說我奇怪，怎麼會聽陌生人說心事。417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjfeHHseve
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BadJ9FEjh
我笑，為他未嘗寂寞滋味而高興。417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisrCaeC7Z3
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDNXedwWBK
「謝謝你聽我說怪人的故事。」417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJYRuh86KB
