「不要走。」她緊緊擁著我，微微抬首，熱淚盈眶。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hcAxVSCq5
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ACDxMlKgM
「別這樣。」我口裡拒絕，心裡卻是萬般不捨。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaxFwH64mc
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkHi8fuYsl
「這裡不好嗎？鳥語花香，豪華大宅、美酒佳餚。還有，我和小思都在這裡！」她輕輕招手，招來小思——我們的愛女。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9d2sj2iYBe
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEY9IJ0b0y
年僅五歲的小思胖胖白白，兩眼水汪汪，腦後頂著兩彎稀疏的小辮子。她鼓起兩頰紅透的小腮子，模仿媽媽的動作，摟抱著我的小腿。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTB3gXRd1g4
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIOwo7kSC1
她們的每一句話、每一個動作都正中我的軟肋，硬生生將我的理智和情感撕裂。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOjvK5G7P5
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhmFk4EOVL
沒法子。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nCdSdfce0
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP49XQyCTXO
她們的外形來自我的記憶，言行源於我的心念，再加上高端科技營造出來的聲音、氣味、觸感，二人活脫脫就在我眼前、我懷中！691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZbUjJiUO0
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfgfUoP04X
「對不起……」沒等她們再次開口，我斷然脫下頭盔，離開虛擬世界。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hKEkBLQ3j
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8djX8UFg0
暗黑的狹窄環境與虛擬世界內的柔和日光形成強烈對比，我的腦袋和眼睛霎時間適應不來，暈頭轉向，整個人從床上滾掉到地面去。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHBvKRhuEQ
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79fe0EdE1A
店員大叔數秒後硬闖入內，見我神智尚算清醒，才鬆一口氣。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡax2Br6BXby
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlh9ucbL7h
「先生，事前我向你解釋過流程，你應該知道強行脫下頭盔的後果可大可小。輕則昏迷數天，重則永久癱瘓神經系統，變成植物人。」大叔外表粗豪，說起話來卻是婆婆媽媽的。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgl23kPzchH
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmioWWlbgu
我硬撐起身子，背靠床架癱坐著，勉定心神，穩住呼吸節奏後，不忘向大叔道歉：「不好意思，嚇壞了你。」691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemvCzGnm5Z
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9lsKdtL8b
不知何解，大叔突然愣住。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapNjU8vCz8
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUj8NBCrTv
「如果機器因為我的行為而損壞，我會賠償。」我是個負責任的男人，無論對人對事皆然。我為此自豪。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5uCN8DNfy
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbtXgoTeBI
「不是這個意思……」大叔終於反應過來，上前攙扶我到休息室去。他拿來熱毛巾，敷在我的前額。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJr0ho3sdJs
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCcoyh5SjL
熱力令我清醒不少，但隨之而來的卻是劇烈頭痛。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BIspjFMmA
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MgXj2zos6
「忍耐一會吧。」大叔自顧自在我身邊吞雲吐霧：「誰叫你不依規矩！」691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxveLDGfU7N
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBsTERaPnh
「不得不走。」我心如刀割：「我擔心自己會永遠沉溺。」691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueLCUAekYz
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtNBpx0Gtj
「親人離世？」大叔夾菸的兩指故態自若。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5Oi6CZXQ9
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0QpL2sPkR
「你看得出來？」我忍痛瞇眼打量大叔。他是個面容滄桑的大漢。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTrDF0tlts
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPCOcjcez7
「顧客願意花大錢前來光顧我店，大都是因為抵不住親人離世的傷痛。」大叔意味深長地補上一句：「你不是唯一一個。」691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2F640q1cT
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bYJFopbVH
「所以我不該感到悲傷？」我聽見話裡的話。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvqgl5vg4N
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAY6x4lVkn
「所以你有能力捱過去——因為大家都捱過去了。」大叔輕視我的悲傷？691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ccLfwU0PJ
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4e6zXi5AfW
「我不是他們！他們亦不是我！」我有點兒憤怒。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBewWv0KJ8
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNObiotLL5O
「我知道。他們花掉大量金錢懷緬過去，直至身無分文才如夢初醒，不得不重投生活、找工作賺錢，然後漸漸忘記傷痛。只有你，有本事打斷自己的思念之情，爽快俐落地回歸生活——你剛才主動向我道歉，而不是恃著自己的悲傷鬱結鬧脾氣。」大叔遞菸予我。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwFkV252n3
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruHBz5u5rt
我接過香菸，將它玩弄於指間。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8q68GWxsiK
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6A74N0I4p7
菸紙的雪白、菸紙的粗糙質地、菸草的濃烈氣味、菸草被手指擠壓時的微弱碎裂聲響、濾嘴被叼在唇間時散發的淡淡化學味道，一切真實而空虛，沒有靈魂。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBZO1ilij3
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcFe2MpS4i
像虛擬世界。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSzsa8vlci
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgr662itsH
「這個……」我放下香菸，掏出銀包裡所有紙鈔予大叔：「謝謝。」691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdguudNLG5
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQYJkrAGU7
大叔欣然收下，俏皮笑道：「後會無期。」691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7Tbm6rNhb
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7v8lck1WOb
「承你貴言。」我頭痛依然，心痛冉退。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaI5hkErpLN
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXas4yCWt5W
店外，夜色蒼茫。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiw5M3U9KHA
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpKxymU2Yu
我回望店面的霓虹招牌——紫白藍綠四色甚有節奏地閃爍著，耀眼奪目。691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6l4ArJhiH
691Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBCaYqpT5c
但只消放寬眼界，就會發現它只是萬千燈火裡的其一，毫不起眼。
