我不敢回話，低頭吃糉子，邊吃邊從廚門隙縫瞥望媽媽。只見她的雙手於不銹鋼煲與砧板之間忙碌來回，間中搞拌煲內食物，偶爾從雪櫃拿出食材。無論怎麼移動，她總是背對著我。憑這不著跡的刻意舉措，我斷定她正在流淚。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxAuAHeCmU
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtXQVSa4qX
我的目光不期然往下掃，落在她的左小腿——一隻人造義肢……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HaMou4EOg
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxEF3NN1m8
「不想吃糉子嗎？」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRryCbW32T7
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDT6PVaRN1Z
「不是……不是。」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9GfwIITab

「喝涼茶吧——我煲的。」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTyrz7Crmg
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CSyi2eTBS
媽媽匆匆給我端來一碗涼茶，然後開啟電視，逕自坐在梳化上收看龍舟比賽，看得出神，似在重溫昔日風采。聽說她自小是運動健將，婚後繼續參與多項運動比賽，在龍舟比賽的戰績尤其彪炳。爸爸反倒是個文藝青年，不擅運動，卻總會抵著日照高溫到比賽場地為媽媽打氣……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzaa3xnyCI
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhxflTmVWk
冒著被罵的危險，我上前拿走電視遙控器：「我想看周星馳。」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf37ciUg3lZ
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBUsmDGFpf
媽媽沒反對，依然安坐梳化上。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9A8dwrqocZ
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oml5JCcZA
又是《西遊記第壹佰零壹回之仙履奇緣》。我對早已滾瓜爛熟的橋段不感興趣，但為了媽媽，只得勉為其難看下去。電影接近尾聲，紫霞仙子為救至尊寶而被牛魔王刺死當刻，媽媽突然失控痛哭起來。哭著哭著，她又無故笑了。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsz9MlqEwmd
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnLNR0wPZA
我沒有安慰她，氣沖沖擸起遙控器，將頻道調回龍舟比賽那邊。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ848SFNqQtE

「隨你喜歡。」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjk8SjaPR4S

沒待媽媽回話，我回睡房上網去。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPzUrsJA6J

萬事該以自己為先，不是嗎？529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGWjdP8uCU

日落西山。肚子餓得咕咕作響，我才記得自己還沒有吃完午餐。惟想及面對媽媽時的尷尬，我不禁猶豫起來。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7Gh3Tg2FI
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfZuHeH2c9
湊巧，媽媽敲門示意晚飯已然備好。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE41vmdK8qQ
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN2cmwoMMw
「不了。我剛剛約了朋友。」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWOn4rpRF7
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6Bp4uiHoD
「嗯。隨便。」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eUq9QMkwk
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFIIMye54H
媽媽非但沒有如常斥責我交待不清楚，甚至輕易放行。這讓我感到意外。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiCzyZUYSe
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eAphISBa0
因為午餐時的不愉快事情嗎？529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2q9Jf8DMz
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPvtNvrOZk
「怎麼愣住？不是要外出嗎？」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkmJuLqm7j
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXosOJMLIEY
「是。」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg657nEzRUj
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgr0SmlXj6S
更衣，套上波鞋，步出大門之際，我瞥見飯枱上的碟子放有兩隻不完整的糉子。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2qnmFSJ5m
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTOd0k1kua
「午餐的剩菜？」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbQzKQ9tNo
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo15V8MMaz
「不要浪費。」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4acp2pQWRJ
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vpKcAbrQi
說畢，媽媽捧著碟子走向梳化，全神貫注地看電視，不再理會我。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsVG7VxDpM
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfU7WMQX2c
我漫無目的慢步大街上。嗅到餐廳傳來的食物香味，反而更無食慾，心念都在今午的事情上打圈轉……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBzCFRaGIC
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlS7zciOvOC
我提著兩個外賣飯盒趕回家。一個留給自己，一個遞予媽媽：「不要吃糉子。已放涼了一整個下午。」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2DKimzvoR
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVsiuC2Pe9
媽媽接過飯盒，默默低頭吃飯。我也保持沉默，靜靜享用飯盒。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUjVbWe1mZ
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeW86nClq5Z
飯後，我和媽媽齊齊坐在梳化上看電視新聞。新聞提及今午的龍舟比賽。這無疑再次挑動媽媽的神經。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuzu50r3Ag
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtxaa0prQQ
三年前的龍舟比賽結束後，爸媽在巴士站排隊候車。誰料在巴士抵站之際，媽媽突然中暑失去意識，往馬路那邊倒下。爸爸不顧一切衝前推開她。收掣不及的巴士輾過爸爸，停車一剎車輪剛好壓住媽媽的左腳……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNEuqWp1sY
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTx7wei4xH
我無法回應媽媽的悲傷，正如她無法放下爸爸。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilwqKnP3kU
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zY5lhjtLR
怎麼辦？可以怎麼辦？不知道。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvgNmX81gm
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIb4iNl9UTG
我全身突然乏力，有意無意輕倚媽媽身上。媽媽沒有迴避，抵著悶熱，任我靠依。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rG7WW61In
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuvl9dbsn6
聽嫲嫲說，媽媽曾因爸爸離世生起自殺念頭，惟念及家中尚有我這個乳臭未乾的十歲女兒而堅強活下去……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4uHDkD7Tq
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsW336N4Gt
「媽媽，明年端午節，我不要再吃糉子。」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwa9Z9ue38
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59rYzFKeoH
「為何不想吃？」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZh3evgocMM
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffJFY4y8yE
「不想紀念屈原。」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyh09haVGh
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWTN4RsdTD
「好的——其實我也不想紀念屈原這傢伙！」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyrinQGet4
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS61bA9ojfp
我和媽媽相視而笑，笑看新聞報導裡每名熱情參與端午節慶祝活動的市民。
