安娜的步伐很快。根本不是一個五歲女孩應有的速度。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQrUh0K7o8
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkOiJL8xNa
一絲不安掠過。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9rYLd3FkR
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWex1YHTws
村民都說她是個不祥人，因為她多年來均是五歲女孩的模樣，不曾長大。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1drpq9Vy7
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNKelNqTdb
「安娜，不如我們休息一會，好嗎？」我氣喘如牛。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYmo1m3eaP
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYSZsLfFOG
她停下腳步，回頭冷眼望我。「好的。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0NLmjHq4c
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtH7haAwFDn
我們在一棵大樹下並肩而坐。我這才發現四周盡是一片迷霧。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjz31Nw0eH
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEl9O0fXc27
不寒而慄。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvELfHEseP
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7W985nDkY6
為何安娜可以單憑直覺辦認方向？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVx9pMpzbb
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5Cy1Ojzj8
難道她真的是傳說中的森林魔鬼？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLmPj6oMOs
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbIk5t9wwq
「安娜，你很熟悉這片森林呢！」我嘗試套口風。傳說從無人可以活著離開森林，除了安娜。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtygHvRZYl
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJNrcm7UDD
「嗯。我每天都在這裡閒蕩。」安娜低頭把玩她的老舊破娃娃。娃娃是由碎布拼湊而成的，沾滿塵灰。灰灰黑黑的，與安娜的衣裝打扮同一調子。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFQkGlx5Fj
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBPzFzjez2
「為甚麼？媽媽不會擔心嗎？」我故作關心，目光離不開安娜的紅髮藍眼。全村只有安娜有紅髮和藍眼珠。我十分肯定安娜的父母不是村子的居民。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAkp9dN4A5
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjqRDWJiJA
「媽媽走入森林後，再也沒有回到村子。但她離開前答應過我，遲些會來帶我渡湖離開。」安娜將娃娃緊緊擁入懷內，一臉憂傷。「我日等夜等，始終等不到，所以走入森林中四處逛，看看能否找到她講的湖。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjRL5jDGBz
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEnlWqV36V
「湖？是否我要找的湖？」我驚訝不已。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflDhOUJKAb
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡww5Vdz2uFB
一連七日，我夢見失蹤多年的母親，她要我找安娜幫忙，尋找森林中的大湖，與她團聚。村民說魔鬼冒充我的母親，想要趁機侵奪我的肉體，勸我不要冒險走入森林，也不要與安娜來往。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6VAshd84c
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvySvWmVh4
「我估計是。」安娜不太肯定。「我沒有親眼見過那個湖。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qfsHFqlGS
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkaFuL0XmB
「你不是曾經引領部份村民找到大湖嗎？」我心頭一顫。曾有二十三個村民先後跟隨安娜進入森林，卻也再沒有回來。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtlltutYhV
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFUwo0OS99
「對。他們看見湖，但我看不見。」安娜苦笑：「他們都夢見多年不見的親人，但我沒有夢見過任何親人。其他村民沒有發過類似的夢，所以亦看不見湖。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfvb6FQqDs
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8wzfodoLG
一切過於詭異，難以服人。難怪村民都說安娜是不祥人。村民對安娜又懼又恨，三番四次欺侮她，想要將她趕離村子。部份激進的村民甚至曾以驅魔之名，將安娜扔入火爐。猶幸安娜死不了，爬出火爐，躲在森林裡療傷。她後來又拾來爛布髒布裹身，遭村民戲稱「灰色安娜」。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1T3H4feCq
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgU7KAbeFy
「不用怕。你的媽媽定會信守諾言。」我心生憐憫。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7473HrStX
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoh6tDWzCPB
安娜終於笑了。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6phPJNhBLS
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkiFgjF5EB
她喜孜孜地給我講述她最愛的床前小故事：從前，有一位灰姑娘。她有一個繼母，繼母有兩個女兒……439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVCjc25GEz
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcKioSJ2yb
聊著聊著，我和安娜齊齊於大樹下倦極入睡。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bzISfcG0j
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxXpIhZILU
翌日，霧氣消散。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6w39d9GFqG
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEnGQ2FrmB
我強撐硬僵的身體，勉力張開沉重的眼皮。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQUvTcVv7A
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdrRpnBa12
怎麼會有一個湖在不遠處？怎麼我們整晚不曾發覺？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHw9D5qchxv
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WhVx0YEiE
「怎麼了？」安娜打個呵欠，睡眼惺忪望向我。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMPw7OHu4E
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmA4wGRJLQ
「你看不見嗎？」我指向大湖。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfop4cawVw
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRf77j54fSE
「湖？我看不見呢！」安娜意識到我看見了甚麼，不以為然。她朝著我手指的方向跑去，跑到我眼中的湖中央，腳步不曾泛起漣漪。最後，她四平八穩地站在湖面，未有沒入水裡。如履平地。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3GTBrzLWG
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OCA5iPzqM
我鼓起勇氣，戰戰兢兢地走向安娜。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pKRAin4YH
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80i7qJRYSq
沒走多少步，我的鞋子已被浸濕，雙腳亦感受到湖水的冰涼。「我沒能走近你！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6LR0u8XyV
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMxraR3Elp
「你站在湖邊就可以了！」她回到我身邊。「看看附近有沒有甚麼特別的？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOO835pBkDB
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDnQgOtWlH
我四處張望。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMObaSXQDwd
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHjLzcCOUQ
濃霧忽現，籠罩湖面，一切景物均沒入迷濛當中。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRpDsjUeX4
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenbhHKQeTO
漣漪從湖中心擴散開來。一條無人的半殘小舟往我們這邊前來，停在我腳邊。「一條……小舟……」我被詭譎的情境嚇得半死，說話結結巴巴的。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMJbePYvhu
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmXiSGW6uf
「就是這個了！它會給你指引離開的路。」講解完畢，安娜馬上轉身離開。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqd5SUyQFC6
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdcjbNP4Du
「安娜！」我叫住安娜：「你要跟我離開嗎？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLRJZfQRMH
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9QcBGvQLs
「我看不見湖，亦看不見小舟，離開不了呢！」安娜以笑容掩蓋失落之情。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkQ3tnoSYo
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GrbjQUS5i
我連忙從衣袋掏出幾顆糖果，塞到安娜手心。「我只有這些……無以為報。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbY1I0Q9zHw
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXhrCLD33E
「或許，你替我打探媽媽的下落，然後告訴她，安娜很掛念她！」安娜哭著講出媽媽的名字。聽聞她是個沒有眼淚的女孩，受到村民的連番欺侮亦不會示弱。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1Ju83PmBV
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalyT9Wx2aA
但，她會為了媽媽而哭。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxcMcULyMR
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb44RCi7dJ0
「好……」我輕掃她的紅髮，以示安慰。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUiG1dWJSQ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpExH911ktS
我登上小舟，邁向矇矓深處。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpQbj1xyQh
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGrImBrTq7
安娜的身影越益模糊……439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMcIbe6kV1
我睜開雙眼，霍地彈起。身邊圍著兩個不認識的醜陋老女人，還有……439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOmcKLTB5U
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgql9jtn4l0
「爸爸？媽媽？」我喜極而泣，父母亦激動衝前，與我相擁。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9U4RTSo7t
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxu3libz1SV
我飽餐一頓後，與父母和醜女們再次聚首。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NmoKwdLGb
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbrddGsptF
父母說，我數天前遇上車禍離世。他們找來女巫作法，令我起死回生。現在，我還要多待在這裡一晚，觀察情況。如無意外，明天方可回家去。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWK2ikUSFY
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHlPb3f25I
夜裡，父母離開小屋後。爐火邊，我和兩位女巫齊齊安坐搖搖椅，品嚐可口的熱朱古力。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44hB80X2ue
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHjS07auFs
我提及有關安娜的事情，希望女巫能夠幫忙尋找安娜的母親。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWINBtM86R
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdhxjBQtub
鴉雀無聲。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyj5xNB7oE
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8rMH3T4C8
我從女巫的神情察覺端倪。「你們認識安娜？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gwntrips4
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEPVEpqULz
她們沒有直接回答我，逕自講起她們的故事……439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkD5EpWCTA
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNsQXXisFF
七十年前，國家內戰剛剛平息，人民又要開始面對瘟疫和饑荒。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfg667pPjE
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ubvoKCE4f
兩個十歲不到的小娃隨著女巫母親四處流浪，最後得到一個樵夫收留。女巫為了報恩而下嫁喪妻的樵夫，助他照顧親生女兒——安娜。可惜好景不常，樵夫染上瘟疫離世，餘下女巫獨力照顧三名女兒。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4L4yVQrdle
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNB8pQGuRWD
四人吃不飽、穿不暖，女巫為生計發愁之際，發現村裡的富翁願意花錢招聘懂得巫術的人，望能將愛妻起死回生。女巫盤算一番後，前往應聘。她以不知袖裡的安娜作為「媒介」，哄騙她為愛妻的靈魂作引導……439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkonhYj8qK
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ah7LjtAWx
「為何不是你倆作『媒介』，而是完全不懂巫術的安娜？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyIpVEx10h
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4arUG8v9o4
「有哪個母親會捨得讓自己的孩子冒險？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSdVyiuSOj
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJdX3RRRhm
「事成後，為何不帶安娜回來？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBocflh3S0D
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5g5vpf7SSi
「因為賺來的錢被偷光。我們只好重施故技，繼續利用安娜賺錢……」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytDhMuHEcW
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMNM6iwkyY
「然後呢？又被偷錢嗎？你們不是活得好好的？有熱朱古力！有火爐！有搖搖椅！但安娜每天被欺侮，甚至會被扔入火爐！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02dzf06Nzw
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOypCnMNc1
「太遲了！安娜的肉身早已腐爛，沒能復生。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SgP3wbZCL
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwzN3dYVRh
「至少，你們該要向她道歉，讓她不要盲目等待，重過正常生活。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Fk7osvRTi
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxw9qXDQJQ
「我們……不敢……我們怕她受刺激後靈力大增，化為怨靈……向我們報仇……」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtl42YKvgqz
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzF7OtYUh1
「她是個好心腸的孩子。或許她會原諒你們。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqoQrQix2R
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PcyR22hWg
「誰保證？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHvR25udce
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWqdiEsF7C
的確，沒人能保證安娜不會發怒。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUwoXrUgiT
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIpAmiSgmq
女巫見我沒有立即回嘴，於是乘勝追擊，你一言我一語，把責任推卸予我。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxxqXjPVy1
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGSrWG9cbe
「不如，你馬上自殺，將真相告訴安娜，勸她重過正常生活。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFWOAveffv
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcELS5dWD2
「但我們不確定安娜會否願意再次為你引路。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgL7ciIojk
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Svv96BuT1
「希望安娜不會就地把你撕成碎片吧！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAOSSSbtMz
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKXXDvdgoR
「裝甚麼大仁大義？你不也是沒膽量！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kyuecPCeq
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9f8jNa8ti
我氣得將手中的保溫杯扔向爐火，把搖搖椅推翻在地。奈何此等誇張的舉動反令女巫笑得彎了腰。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fPg7uF4aR
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5skrv6v7xF
「惱羞成怒嗎？哈哈哈！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNKT3aUPUg
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcjDcgcPr7
「你的父母千金散盡，原來是救了個小屁孩！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pytArHasn
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7e2B9LTmGM
「世界從來不是非黑即白！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tAsGtgg7L
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Rv18HK9g6
「小子，你將來就會明白！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ukF6FcQpv
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP83VSjV13C
我知道自己徹底輸了。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8k9GhNML3s
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5ke7e8Iuw
不單是敗予女巫，更是敗於自己。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiv8xjWUDd
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxDWVE5Zh0
我沒有自己想像的清高。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDk4FFJgbs
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CiMLLEcFN
所以……439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRpQDzoJvZ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXHIvGafrl
對不起，安娜。
