安娜的步伐很快。根本不是一個五歲女孩應有的速度。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ydcooTZmv
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NCvj5pw9R
一絲不安掠過。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpmMzRTORP
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnyEDzJbrb
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdPcwDWwB8
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6yIly8kFW
「安娜，不如我們休息一會，好嗎？」我氣喘如牛。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkijoulhWXz
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBxaZL6DVW
她停下腳步，回頭冷眼望我。「好的。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUnfDKQV2o
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8Dz5zBNpb
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCadnIJnsgJ
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90lU8L6HHD
不寒而慄。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LxYoW2hnc
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBbeiuYdsi
為何安娜可以單憑直覺辦認方向？451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQwImWxOaY
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcmIZrLNND
難道她真的是傳說中的森林魔鬼？451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRDNTjQSht
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSS7ffQgNP
「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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoq35yauCRe
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiR7M4AXvWa
「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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDNtRb3qcu
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfk4Bb6sE1
「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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVayqZK7jM
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViWwxz2GKN
「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。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYKBPxRCRn
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Amx4iBe4z
「湖？是否我要找的湖？」我驚訝不已。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHNC8SMTaC
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEshDFnOCgT
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zHLXvV83O
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgqBvPiFRQ
「我估計是。」安娜不太肯定。「我沒有親眼見過那個湖。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzY28yZrPUD
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69oJ9PTKBJ
「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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsj3ocHJeey
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGqb0KbKq3
「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。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCASzwORCH
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGRoDX547S
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」。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mFW2Vbslj
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlVq2RfsjN
「不用怕。你的媽媽定會信守諾言。」我心生憐憫。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz6D8G4ntE
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDPWtPMt02
安娜終於笑了。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKaVhWtrFA
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbPb36crHP
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……451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibKIHNIbNq
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTq3ZbDuNAU
聊著聊著，我和安娜齊齊於大樹下倦極入睡。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45PMYZ58SU
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj21epBTh5Y
翌日，霧氣消散。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiS0M7Q0ZuT
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxa2KBDDRo
我強撐硬僵的身體，勉力張開沉重的眼皮。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvAqXHRcHA
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNy1KEODYU
怎麼會有一個湖在不遠處？怎麼我們整晚不曾發覺？451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpLZvqQCAL
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNXdSIvCXy
「怎麼了？」安娜打個呵欠，睡眼惺忪望向我。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02co0qbRkk
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YFvvfvu0f
「你看不見嗎？」我指向大湖。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLTt4i6t1i
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9hD3jiuXh
「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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYHzuFPryr
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIGCARXXxm
我鼓起勇氣，戰戰兢兢地走向安娜。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwS1uyRM9C5
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkg8Gy1pEx
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！」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkBKxVOlfb
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRlpdpuXlj
「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？」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRlsRbVorn
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVibCK6ZdRm
我四處張望。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeIRabnUdc
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2HAFpzIgD
濃霧忽現，籠罩湖面，一切景物均沒入迷濛當中。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8b2HeXW7Rp
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Otp49LMKl
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHt8vk4Q5i
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQm8y6tDTz4
「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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2D3FizyvF
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk4XjgenkG
「安娜！」我叫住安娜：「你要跟我離開嗎？」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGk3y0FjXn
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyk3bgVzFf
「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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ypjPIEr2Y
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvdENglZXp
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。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8p30KEzwD
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUx4oDQSD9
「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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZG4uRFywL
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXo1pl5dWu
但，她會為了媽媽而哭。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RO4MPOf6x
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYqmXKuzhH
「好……」我輕掃她的紅髮，以示安慰。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUpWdEMgje
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7uTHfGWb3
我登上小舟，邁向矇矓深處。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMlNtyISs8
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8QzA9U0IH
安娜的身影越益模糊……451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCO5VkHJAzE
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……451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzpaNDKN37
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVDKpPJ2Eh
「爸爸？媽媽？」我喜極而泣，父母亦激動衝前，與我相擁。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllx5hT9ojS
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0fgSNmunr
我飽餐一頓後，與父母和醜女們再次聚首。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVqFnO20pc
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2FwwaYCjh
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtXyAUEpgV
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdS8P2Holts
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmvyndCfZ5
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yREHAax4y
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFkyUg2dls
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1BVR55LGQ
鴉雀無聲。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvYOsKV8Ka
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRsTjBq8Gf
我從女巫的神情察覺端倪。「你們認識安娜？」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTX0wah3HP
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatypdNdAXt
她們沒有直接回答我，逕自講起她們的故事……451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hw7TNzFqu
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTMKxG6Tvv
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXF1Lgkd2rW
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP3UXb09KY
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQI3V7JnN8
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jxXQ13st5
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……451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYLO7RWEBj
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHb4GwFzg6
「為何不是你倆作『媒介』，而是完全不懂巫術的安娜？」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdbjj7nVEM
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AcMIfraR8
「有哪個母親會捨得讓自己的孩子冒險？」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcuY1af36a
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNKd0PbaSZ
「事成後，為何不帶安娜回來？」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQh6qQJqx2k
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyljfcfJEFv
「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……」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmy56sI3qp7
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdyRn9TbJM
「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！」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokhKb38DIP
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ixe8GDFvF
「太遲了！安娜的肉身早已腐爛，沒能復生。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDre5vg9lr3
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ399YtnV4Cg
「至少，你們該要向她道歉，讓她不要盲目等待，重過正常生活。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xIGkdQIXf
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqkAKLq4uc
「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……」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaEJlXm9OH
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHCtvC3fDl
「她是個好心腸的孩子。或許她會原諒你們。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2QEqNItxx
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPyPAIFAbO
「誰保證？」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAxpvmGMtt
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckeCj8jGxP
的確，沒人能保證安娜不會發怒。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAYkDK8ENJ
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFuJxdkhCT
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTgXtUp5q3
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4cRCBcA9T
「不如，你馬上自殺，將真相告訴安娜，勸她重過正常生活。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQIiig7qA4
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBJEIS19uQ
「但我們不確定安娜會否願意再次為你引路。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V4RGbVD9G
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdw6BlG5MG
「希望安娜不會就地把你撕成碎片吧！」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxE8uCLZHmq
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8ytWj89iU
「裝甚麼大仁大義？你不也是沒膽量！」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUTGXfl7w6
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoec2akD8AJ
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ908VCEIYrI
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciQkuDJuRG
「惱羞成怒嗎？哈哈哈！」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4u8Z1NfoYs
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPYLOtEaqP
「你的父母千金散盡，原來是救了個小屁孩！」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14ZAF6kk5M
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrP1TDyeRRm
「世界從來不是非黑即白！」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZCaPQp5aC
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7uj0AleN8
「小子，你將來就會明白！」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnC55wzdxtF
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhz7YdRZfu
我知道自己徹底輸了。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuMySqXucb
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwPW926BHL
不單是敗予女巫，更是敗於自己。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTOjgLTL5v
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7R9hhtX7p
我沒有自己想像的清高。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6Aapecf1B
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2dDOk9h0O
所以……451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8BkBDW0Eq
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa15GpumGt
對不起，安娜。
