安娜的步伐很快。根本不是一個五歲女孩應有的速度。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnjf9cye4H
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdD9Kp4RtN
一絲不安掠過。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecHHCkuaEz
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxoyciPX3K
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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtDnVfNNZ7
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSnz27qj9A
「安娜，不如我們休息一會，好嗎？」我氣喘如牛。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaFbKgtO2Y
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFi9DgMa2oh
她停下腳步，回頭冷眼望我。「好的。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTsmd7M5aq
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkEKFe6UJj
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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXJAIMpkTY
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfao9UWaj1C
不寒而慄。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Iaz4SpJ2J
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSWK1AIjRG
為何安娜可以單憑直覺辦認方向？409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡef3HtYygLp
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3eaZAM4Ks
難道她真的是傳說中的森林魔鬼？409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIkbftMFU3
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OZl3DD0x4
「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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uMaGJ3yzp
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkpaReZF7Y
「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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPO4qdZl9fY
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3SmhqTH4N
「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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoE8u73YWwq
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHExWFxjkY
「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。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuycs9O6LIA
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCb0e5zJtl
「湖？是否我要找的湖？」我驚訝不已。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOySaWWiHxY
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ImdQCDWvf
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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rgAp8Ee0u
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDfUEnyu3z
「我估計是。」安娜不太肯定。「我沒有親眼見過那個湖。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LLXANkHDP
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmBmntNYwF
「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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjROtL4j1La
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZE9xEkZMP
「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。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQASsa19tg
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgANkQlR9zW
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」。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQmyRq5epN
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxJeh50m6V
「不用怕。你的媽媽定會信守諾言。」我心生憐憫。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDauRnIDZG
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFATfhNOPZb
安娜終於笑了。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdzoRRkkwU
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpJwXomuQK
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……409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAq7xLjjfVe
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSA1ztiVYGu
聊著聊著，我和安娜齊齊於大樹下倦極入睡。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrZ981MTqS
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS61vISwzir
翌日，霧氣消散。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbq4ZDGGnYK
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Xs4SfByZ4
我強撐硬僵的身體，勉力張開沉重的眼皮。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPCbnSWLnk
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4PYXzXOeA
怎麼會有一個湖在不遠處？怎麼我們整晚不曾發覺？409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3xmmvARIo
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSQD5k35Yg
「怎麼了？」安娜打個呵欠，睡眼惺忪望向我。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGC5PPStEF
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDdpPDPp6D
「你看不見嗎？」我指向大湖。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58M6CkHILi
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SQ4Msu6Rl
「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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5MKdsnq4q
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPr2ZjAZNLi
我鼓起勇氣，戰戰兢兢地走向安娜。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2HvJclBog
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFW4va1E78h
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！」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9MUOxGCQW
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfHbiBO5IK
「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？」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtGZTxhJ7A
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xJWDNNXY4
我四處張望。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6527udQjD
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHf2cf6qTfm
濃霧忽現，籠罩湖面，一切景物均沒入迷濛當中。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sgNnae6Iu
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3t61KACzY
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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVTKs3mwA8
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtmQs7TBj1
「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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eTdw4EDx3
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdOnv8O6df
「安娜！」我叫住安娜：「你要跟我離開嗎？」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58YEsTrTEt
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVJ9GLMC53
「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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZV0zGkdgZX
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5wRYkxv0I
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。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNloHJ2EXM
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLH1j7TD0UP
「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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mTZh7MnWs
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvivS79NSV
但，她會為了媽媽而哭。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVfIBMJuQn
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF34qOZnGFU
「好……」我輕掃她的紅髮，以示安慰。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jRrlNiwjN
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHxQpz9myz
我登上小舟，邁向矇矓深處。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Iy8wLNWCk
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLH6EPdGnVH
安娜的身影越益模糊……
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……409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNi09A3Ptd
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcW29tHLkX
「爸爸？媽媽？」我喜極而泣，父母亦激動衝前，與我相擁。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzxxNDlxA1
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HyA0MiiAM
我飽餐一頓後，與父母和醜女們再次聚首。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ338z39S6U
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXFfNXLsdZ
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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoaRhdV26b
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ361XN2R8Zb
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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCxWunLQeR
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkfRxvr0Nc
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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMacrpqJQKz
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNKl0I25lW
鴉雀無聲。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sHFWLKAXl
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwEbPEDp2M
我從女巫的神情察覺端倪。「你們認識安娜？」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3md0PXjaI
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcH9xMuEhS
她們沒有直接回答我，逕自講起她們的故事……409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXItaFopDNA
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpu3BCtLAo6
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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVZG8KDtIX
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ff7cnyvCY
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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDOUSP0pae

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……409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTwhWir0pD
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFCqpCSHOW
「為何不是你倆作『媒介』，而是完全不懂巫術的安娜？」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AXMotAMtv
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1ytVxx9Fx
「有哪個母親會捨得讓自己的孩子冒險？」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrU6G9r29s0
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyhwmnJWH4
「事成後，為何不帶安娜回來？」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYKjvkKkMd
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScvjkdfXPb
「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……」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqDozZgpKv
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tkSWPVBdg
「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！」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2LBvd9ZD4
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7y1Bw2frN
「太遲了！安娜的肉身早已腐爛，沒能復生。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9PEx73hY5
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaMo9t5tPw
「至少，你們該要向她道歉，讓她不要盲目等待，重過正常生活。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1L3HudhXz5
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡum6D59G45X
「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……」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUorogj3BIo
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4syHdIuW72
「她是個好心腸的孩子。或許她會原諒你們。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nWe9JMwsI
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06Ql5gieYO
「誰保證？」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1il0CX70k
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfg3v7vWx9X
的確，沒人能保證安娜不會發怒。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiIPb5WB64
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJNIAijRpA
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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXOrEMNPGS
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBe3lx5IEh
「不如，你馬上自殺，將真相告訴安娜，勸她重過正常生活。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMiFg2WM9X
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmmZTnNuoY
「但我們不確定安娜會否願意再次為你引路。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPnHHTdoXr
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBqdi7VhGm
「希望安娜不會就地把你撕成碎片吧！」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmxnRxGh9k
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqEtE8BkqF
「裝甚麼大仁大義？你不也是沒膽量！」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqO7mQ5KbwO
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNPHTowYGn
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。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGO1eqrfMR
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PKgY2cvPI
「惱羞成怒嗎？哈哈哈！」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG89omOaEZf

我知道自己徹底輸了。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5neEjbb5kt
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDsJfM4Kjm
不單是敗予女巫，更是敗於自己。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgcRVOMav0
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXV0WXoQECS
我沒有自己想像的清高。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQ2ogDpI9c

所以……409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwHC2CJWQx
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWR0Xm6wBna
對不起，安娜。
