安娜的步伐很快。根本不是一個五歲女孩應有的速度。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQpiRfBh4P
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkn7qlB9zuF
一絲不安掠過。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWCrRk8kwb
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtx0fjigVHI
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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4agpM25Ez
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63JKvUUhpo
「安娜，不如我們休息一會，好嗎？」我氣喘如牛。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rXeJTWvtQ
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudZEXSFunz
她停下腳步，回頭冷眼望我。「好的。」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQJwImVieR
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI57agU5s4J
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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6Yc26Qpco
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBKVAXslA0
不寒而慄。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FAW72E2AK
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7jPot71KR
為何安娜可以單憑直覺辦認方向？408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Gpf67ghdu
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPhDP7ejJC
難道她真的是傳說中的森林魔鬼？408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumppw1MiFT
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJzfLytDvF
「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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsIrH2Y80Z
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjtgrbS2TB
「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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmKEqLCHwQ
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2dmarM24k
「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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kJ5fTjFOX
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCptU6tPeP
「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。」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQgvio0egs
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz35BDyblGA
「湖？是否我要找的湖？」我驚訝不已。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLl4k9CYCt
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMJIyIrJ9b
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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cOZP9nOSR
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQ49VYcgOI
「我估計是。」安娜不太肯定。「我沒有親眼見過那個湖。」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnGJSHd8Xy
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzKSrLHYjo
「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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0RQi87rFj
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaMcuVgVPW
「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。」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mkkb4PHN4
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sdMX2qo9f
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」。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGWGkxsS7e
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVdTvhg05b
「不用怕。你的媽媽定會信守諾言。」我心生憐憫。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQ9RpT1zgG
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXQKnjdWFC
安娜終於笑了。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlYIFlz014
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzWyC7sUKL
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……408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfscyZfUDa7
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYmEP0B1Xb
聊著聊著，我和安娜齊齊於大樹下倦極入睡。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HLpJD0DK7
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixYw8yN69b
翌日，霧氣消散。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoKUdwCEnc
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JOAglMT9l
我強撐硬僵的身體，勉力張開沉重的眼皮。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2Jod4tScJ
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9NebjBrxx
怎麼會有一個湖在不遠處？怎麼我們整晚不曾發覺？408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OUhG1kusO
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gUXbilaeN
「怎麼了？」安娜打個呵欠，睡眼惺忪望向我。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJ3cFMzPqV
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytJKfI3nyM
「你看不見嗎？」我指向大湖。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTy1TleNfoM
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjpMtMgTns
「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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MrtNZKUUI
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeiX5Gjovl
我鼓起勇氣，戰戰兢兢地走向安娜。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbvniGmWs1
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgFH3baigV
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！」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjRiobZUNs
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEH7wR5XTf
「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？」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHByzeoWwO
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOV1Vy6vf2
我四處張望。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeog4UcG75p
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0r2Qz0RIik
濃霧忽現，籠罩湖面，一切景物均沒入迷濛當中。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXcSHOWQqs
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTmJGsi1up
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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11fjCDN66O
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhOA3H8eX2
「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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHochFGo0E
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvz0uPAR9LE
「安娜！」我叫住安娜：「你要跟我離開嗎？」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QN7Z0bQu7
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69Fw4DX6GD
「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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzu4ezqqtrw
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVxHKHyDxG
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。」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFFvqOdfJp
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakv59ALsXe
「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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBbXmqpaaf
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSC8b3fFt5
但，她會為了媽媽而哭。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvd2l8zvgMW
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtrMo2IKor
「好……」我輕掃她的紅髮，以示安慰。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0yJ2VaLMe
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8JhI1DZ2i
我登上小舟，邁向矇矓深處。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVWq7hOgWd
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfldOWA2fw
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……408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNo0AR141N
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaI2QraGThB
「爸爸？媽媽？」我喜極而泣，父母亦激動衝前，與我相擁。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnqSfZ2pZe
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHIAcYn8a6
我飽餐一頓後，與父母和醜女們再次聚首。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOQvMqb38d
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFYIv6LC42
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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtolaSDQnSR
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOeuEXAG8x
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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrdvd0OJDd
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMnT8i3mz4
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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdW7r2c6tYD
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEzhhREyki
鴉雀無聲。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMIbzALu1R
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oLosOE8AN
我從女巫的神情察覺端倪。「你們認識安娜？」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuo1UGwP7m
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3QG9I8nU6
她們沒有直接回答我，逕自講起她們的故事……408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjX29sgTiB
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhR0HntnFvw
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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vPflC5CIK
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfRcwkll3j
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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkJNBgD5aw
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWWdwrKLKr
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……408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7c1HHvi5cR
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZNYTiXYkR
「為何不是你倆作『媒介』，而是完全不懂巫術的安娜？」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr3NnNLJUq
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlPNSTqtyg
「有哪個母親會捨得讓自己的孩子冒險？」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bCzdGk0kz
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMeRMiCQZY
「事成後，為何不帶安娜回來？」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JppXsFCvj
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLs19kNeCoa
「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……」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifsMRlOkrx
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvNPtVOiNQ
「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！」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4AZd90Dkv
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZglmIiL6F
「太遲了！安娜的肉身早已腐爛，沒能復生。」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQi8rz0Qki
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7N2K8eWNkI
「至少，你們該要向她道歉，讓她不要盲目等待，重過正常生活。」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VyRMk3rlX
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9FGc9gyfH
「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……」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHA3Iq31Ry1
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfMrqiGJA3
「她是個好心腸的孩子。或許她會原諒你們。」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXWOjgNaYK
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH25hdiB8e2
「誰保證？」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtT5Zt1mjpi
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaJgBzTVvr
的確，沒人能保證安娜不會發怒。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBbY29oAUF
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgKak7Ow6k
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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLszTulg8ik
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6lDUqIhxK
「不如，你馬上自殺，將真相告訴安娜，勸她重過正常生活。」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFA51kjjCC
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVGhYBSvhA
「但我們不確定安娜會否願意再次為你引路。」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vJ7ykFsXj
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAYD0l5fgB
「希望安娜不會就地把你撕成碎片吧！」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7NXkbXSbW
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWh7grEO2V
「裝甚麼大仁大義？你不也是沒膽量！」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXo8o2cADA
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOhv9MQsj3
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。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkwf3Bk1QE
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DCZv9X9sH
「惱羞成怒嗎？哈哈哈！」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsCcRqSTwk
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExulTs3iva
「你的父母千金散盡，原來是救了個小屁孩！」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBq7sbkg5i

「世界從來不是非黑即白！」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7ckSxBkP2

「小子，你將來就會明白！」408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYznMKRxmc
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApm357NuUC
我知道自己徹底輸了。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhcPqPvT55
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX9GcLMJfI
不單是敗予女巫，更是敗於自己。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2ya4JQmoP
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32PdS5Vld3
我沒有自己想像的清高。408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tsPyBJzQ5
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdNcSA4rjh
所以……408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUfXaGvVgE
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxblxJ8qHQE
對不起，安娜。
