安娜的步伐很快。根本不是一個五歲女孩應有的速度。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxMGXlJNkU
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDJznIcSvS
一絲不安掠過。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZQNoVBOrf
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeBF0wo3Gk
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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPsFwyloRZ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XQWbR4yl8
「安娜，不如我們休息一會，好嗎？」我氣喘如牛。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKGRsUhEqv
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxvEMOTMw3
她停下腳步，回頭冷眼望我。「好的。」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLkmvyB2qj
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrUaneiBWA
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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoM8FAY9NMG
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGrjGWwHKo
不寒而慄。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61xcPefB90
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhWmyAixpT
為何安娜可以單憑直覺辦認方向？425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxYdvm0g6V
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiw0KhC5Hv
難道她真的是傳說中的森林魔鬼？425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5381r38hZ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FRiUEDb6c
「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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBLvkrTdNz
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynAdk854wk
「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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpnfIIyFVx
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScHZhV55yX
「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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfbWyghoOS
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkE8XxiiU0u
「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。」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcbdaXWIsJ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaMteWdERu
「湖？是否我要找的湖？」我驚訝不已。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4azruJy50
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5DzOd4ACc
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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wL0qNPHuv
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCUJf77TI8
「我估計是。」安娜不太肯定。「我沒有親眼見過那個湖。」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDE9PBnjD7
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qMdcn3Koj
「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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviLV3G3dof
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7fVct6Wd2
「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。」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlaBuPETGN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmsJmOiG8x
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」。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvmLayXora
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqMT6Bxiaq
「不用怕。你的媽媽定會信守諾言。」我心生憐憫。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0peH7pl0Oo
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUq0D86dIKC
安娜終於笑了。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oJd2pTGqe
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwbUpsMMXC
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……425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzitqx0mBz
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0haTbHF0i
聊著聊著，我和安娜齊齊於大樹下倦極入睡。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHC0tw1eci
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUYO6ZVxDI
翌日，霧氣消散。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijiX3nnqfi
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl4AXl3hYw
我強撐硬僵的身體，勉力張開沉重的眼皮。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EQDsDcXCk
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8ugBwwuq8
怎麼會有一個湖在不遠處？怎麼我們整晚不曾發覺？425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZBNprEOqq
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULAIZ83fyb
「怎麼了？」安娜打個呵欠，睡眼惺忪望向我。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJ3bTcX2gu
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3UfqEexzE
「你看不見嗎？」我指向大湖。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5be7nniCtC
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWHdu00RJj
「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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8ed4YMJEc
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBIfZSb5Xf
我鼓起勇氣，戰戰兢兢地走向安娜。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ETdtcOT2d
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ60GyEx7ZL
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！」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkwBgvwOP9
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeLXBD1Q38
「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？」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslggQsU9t1
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ST9pJj4cl
我四處張望。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DoaiGc2q6
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡph3VKvO1iz
濃霧忽現，籠罩湖面，一切景物均沒入迷濛當中。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uXicStd3x
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkC2XxUPmfQ
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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR87qBg8MMg
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxCUlryJkJ
「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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQySAf2XIS
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7R4QrjEn9n
「安娜！」我叫住安娜：「你要跟我離開嗎？」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPY9juYnlGU
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFXJDwDQGR
「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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPAni6Q5eK
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXi7HbiBXY0
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。」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xxcnj6AJU
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTS3UTPIlf
「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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5EPikwgbm
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTE6FC3nnB2
但，她會為了媽媽而哭。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvX5Ia463n
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0VPPebmGY
「好……」我輕掃她的紅髮，以示安慰。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNbeLQBUvC
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3OcxWdBI9
我登上小舟，邁向矇矓深處。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8hl5RyzaC
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9k5efvNkOA
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……425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMR6QWHQAkQ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLp2n3y8IJA
「爸爸？媽媽？」我喜極而泣，父母亦激動衝前，與我相擁。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QRsVErvKb
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvABmRGWRGB
我飽餐一頓後，與父母和醜女們再次聚首。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kVv3RMLEt
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDMYsLAKQw
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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9eRtNTI7y
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cQeM4ADeI
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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8i7rce8KPF
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROM1bgntvv
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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0fxmrEYRQ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgLrgBPXzf
鴉雀無聲。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKRQE1Z1Sp
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6J8MmZJ3r
我從女巫的神情察覺端倪。「你們認識安娜？」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XWTjPFSMF
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMDrjJ3phx
她們沒有直接回答我，逕自講起她們的故事……425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafF9VgJ5So
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnIYI01AYX
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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcWzuEYTdO
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3pZYcTEWs
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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzI9CtIWko
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod9jmI2Joq
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……425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaRe2dcgnn
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDLncTRN7l
「為何不是你倆作『媒介』，而是完全不懂巫術的安娜？」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUziOeqw2jK
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DvVX2YMwQ
「有哪個母親會捨得讓自己的孩子冒險？」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wtLDmv740
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkLOfvp7kE
「事成後，為何不帶安娜回來？」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHQxbuTzLB
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCQEvxO1V6
「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……」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIi3HEeO7H
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98Vtsn48bh
「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！」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbdnEbEzYX
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9NPDqoJoX
「太遲了！安娜的肉身早已腐爛，沒能復生。」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OppNUFs0b
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hamDxBihQ
「至少，你們該要向她道歉，讓她不要盲目等待，重過正常生活。」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfCeFr0TA3
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBUBl124Nt
「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……」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLl6CeOMcyE
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSM97jYVyv
「她是個好心腸的孩子。或許她會原諒你們。」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BUiy48ARj
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡys0HqFOO9M
「誰保證？」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4sdwO5v3M
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBgoXfgk8i
的確，沒人能保證安娜不會發怒。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtHQfXW0Z4
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYBTIuANzV
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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh23Bpgren7
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhyEftAacI
「不如，你馬上自殺，將真相告訴安娜，勸她重過正常生活。」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rQoLg73YM
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFf47Fooua
「但我們不確定安娜會否願意再次為你引路。」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDpgAqIT6Y
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwifiyrwzN
「希望安娜不會就地把你撕成碎片吧！」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaTHZdYTFV
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJxLOU1K1D
「裝甚麼大仁大義？你不也是沒膽量！」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOiaDoc7Qi
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6LejXpKzZ
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。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXyWhkLdvN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6djsWZbKz
「惱羞成怒嗎？哈哈哈！」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKlc2ThZN5
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eK4tddiDk
「你的父母千金散盡，原來是救了個小屁孩！」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOEl8eojLq

「世界從來不是非黑即白！」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDImzX8Jlmi

「小子，你將來就會明白！」425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMfR8FFBSz
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqmEvdUjfv
我知道自己徹底輸了。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpkIidWpod
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTQsWydQrl
不單是敗予女巫，更是敗於自己。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyOaPq1rN7
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQtlrFoQbM
我沒有自己想像的清高。425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWUBW1aSzE
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLyrryOZd8
所以……425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTJCJJhuha
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmnAqBRfpc
對不起，安娜。
