安娜的步伐很快。根本不是一個五歲女孩應有的速度。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvD7OpBi3P
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLffanDP4K5
一絲不安掠過。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lnqK2EIDP
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjEYrWtJHA
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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgNGyHdimk
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTtkkVULKQ
「安娜，不如我們休息一會，好嗎？」我氣喘如牛。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHx4zZPVkr
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUP1Sl1yZHZ
她停下腳步，回頭冷眼望我。「好的。」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIzAzzm282
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIv86g66BS
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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvSp0bn4Ir
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhgtsLmYFV
不寒而慄。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XKr0ohnaF
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtdVk9JdcE
為何安娜可以單憑直覺辦認方向？295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdJNyUZCfn
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28dqoh5ewL
難道她真的是傳說中的森林魔鬼？295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMqoqo0FNH
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTJfhtmrCC
「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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxUnYcrivX
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHUp8GN0lY
「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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn47SEEBhWx
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWnOVdaZrU
「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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTuCKrhW89
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEHRUJsAW4
「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。」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hXR9xfs21
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6efbUveAE
「湖？是否我要找的湖？」我驚訝不已。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDt0Or75tS
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiJq9rcpxC
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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARLtz6zBf1
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYOQ0s71hg
「我估計是。」安娜不太肯定。「我沒有親眼見過那個湖。」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZIaHlShg7
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQoqIN2eTN
「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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsONnaUYprm
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwZbQuFbF1
「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。」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6MXrF6vs7
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeeILQhsRy
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」。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqpUI7eJfu
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1Dh2tNGBz
「不用怕。你的媽媽定會信守諾言。」我心生憐憫。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnvve72gzY
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ98dhtDUoG
安娜終於笑了。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52Z7PHORvl
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wYInkAdzu
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……295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWTOF0sCV3
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjlxRxgNcI
聊著聊著，我和安娜齊齊於大樹下倦極入睡。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7e5lSdmtU
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGtuQrSB2G
翌日，霧氣消散。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrnmLftBzz
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDAHPvObjd
我強撐硬僵的身體，勉力張開沉重的眼皮。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOjx2uAgKB
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvsjKyAOSb
怎麼會有一個湖在不遠處？怎麼我們整晚不曾發覺？295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKN1bHGV34Q
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqzHx2Wief
「怎麼了？」安娜打個呵欠，睡眼惺忪望向我。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9g3tG6M9f
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MJ19KblRy
「你看不見嗎？」我指向大湖。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JCoxd7zi9
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP773L6Gikd
「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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsz4rWbqeZ0
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDLybvpOHX
我鼓起勇氣，戰戰兢兢地走向安娜。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCeXWLz0s4
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyQguE9q32
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！」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPZlKdISI7
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDgVKYCclS
「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？」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkuVCmLuox
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaG3mJkJLf
我四處張望。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETopoZm0yw
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJspa89D2oQ
濃霧忽現，籠罩湖面，一切景物均沒入迷濛當中。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsDPdZYd3y
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2A3pb2rRI
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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeer7X0I9ie
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9l8vvTjgab
「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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEm3fI4Sze
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDg61p0OPI
「安娜！」我叫住安娜：「你要跟我離開嗎？」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKbafRkra4
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LyNf54dGG
「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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIWMMX9X6F
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzS4zpvk23E
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。」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOkEEnwc8c
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IJHhkdizM
「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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLZnqaamHO
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpgeTlsXzF
但，她會為了媽媽而哭。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqfm67pCpG
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJu1acwSg9b
「好……」我輕掃她的紅髮，以示安慰。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hVyElNiKp
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6tAl6EBmO
我登上小舟，邁向矇矓深處。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVWVfhpw64
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfk3FuCVz07
安娜的身影越益模糊……295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZNShzTj6b
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……295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpSjtCqHMx
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEmjjTGYds
「爸爸？媽媽？」我喜極而泣，父母亦激動衝前，與我相擁。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAazkNn93f
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiink8Gw6FN
我飽餐一頓後，與父母和醜女們再次聚首。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZaeBZ3liu
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5v2s7rDUOj
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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcSja4P8G9
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBBgQwvvRE
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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySPmjYO8JL
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrNXKfRLpF
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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX71OqdQviJ
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywp9sYD2dO
鴉雀無聲。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgxACfJrAE
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxViohPBlEk
我從女巫的神情察覺端倪。「你們認識安娜？」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlytTzY8eI
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gUc51dnsR
她們沒有直接回答我，逕自講起她們的故事……295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DVLf7E0yr
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAYnQLExHA
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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eQIk7lPi2
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKarqYNyEQ5
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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjnvloWJPz
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVsO61fFoN
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……295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpZTtZEN2f
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5G4fseGyN4
「為何不是你倆作『媒介』，而是完全不懂巫術的安娜？」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4tuLOY4uX
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fkDSLUSef
「有哪個母親會捨得讓自己的孩子冒險？」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQndPSj73D
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSxjBuExYo
「事成後，為何不帶安娜回來？」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD95YKGlsP
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDLYslENEQ
「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……」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEFYjZa0Ri
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsSgJJJs9m
「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！」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpkuHFMgpL
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DhZcfOocc
「太遲了！安娜的肉身早已腐爛，沒能復生。」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc416nmNDvs
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzb4ZhLHaw
「至少，你們該要向她道歉，讓她不要盲目等待，重過正常生活。」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIGcWXDF5Y
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9i2GOCIi9
「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……」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypnX3MMJhV
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6GaBehLNa
「她是個好心腸的孩子。或許她會原諒你們。」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthecTnPxjp
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJAgjv3oKb
「誰保證？」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxVLNXBAaz
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dy3AzUiaL
的確，沒人能保證安娜不會發怒。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNMBlsG4Mr
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQ3PwbMzub
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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ967AmaSP0d
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyU9mpcZmB
「不如，你馬上自殺，將真相告訴安娜，勸她重過正常生活。」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLaFk3nu1t
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPU4H5m5FHd
「但我們不確定安娜會否願意再次為你引路。」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDL8EAvyeuY
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSzXQVmV7Q
「希望安娜不會就地把你撕成碎片吧！」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGtG7IPWrV
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftB0227no7
「裝甚麼大仁大義？你不也是沒膽量！」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCVnIafW8o
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiOd9Rp8Di
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。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYZivDNNLr
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65ZMLEM2Fa
「惱羞成怒嗎？哈哈哈！」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Qevx3CY6b
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGPbo5qmHW
「你的父母千金散盡，原來是救了個小屁孩！」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2C42mxoa4N

「世界從來不是非黑即白！」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2mKKKKIQB
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQFxWB9UnH
「小子，你將來就會明白！」295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL37QHL6N7
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEKkLVOmRl
我知道自己徹底輸了。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgzBJRBaDY
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzSBevseVt
不單是敗予女巫，更是敗於自己。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKUAdTVyOE
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVGVHh6dKG
我沒有自己想像的清高。295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnT1X5YCC56
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHobfeCuTb
所以……295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeublVHTVp
295Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawUL0nk15m
對不起，安娜。
