學校閘前，馨儀被祈祈從後叫住：「不如一起走。」570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBrN8HwiNg
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMD9YjQjCpr
祈祈的窩心行為出乎馨儀意料。她看看錶：這個時間，祈祈應該老早跟著家傭姐姐離開了。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4g8IXGoY4h
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQprT7y267
萬分感動。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhf2MndzcdM
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZRrpVFIv6
祈祈沒有提及志恆的事，純粹與馨儀閒聊。談天說地。講講在學校附近新開張的越南菜館、笑談近日的娛樂熱話、推介好聽的流行曲……570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PDXngdt7Z
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmVha1WgBz
在祈祈的陪伴下，馨儀舒懷多了。尤當看見祈祈露出罕有的笑容時，馨儀覺得自己的煩惱存在得有價值：祈祈全心全意為她著想，以至忘記自己的煩憂。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9qqGaZsSc
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8B2iLcSNf0
馨儀很好奇，為何條件優渥的祈祈比前途黯淡的她更為愁眉不展。但她沒開口問。無可否認，她從一開始已對祈祈生起一種距離感：祈祈的條件那麼優裕，自己豈能與她相提並論！是自卑，亦是妒忌。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiWW9TPj99
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCltf7lv128
良心微微衝擊著馨儀，她為先前的想法感到慚愧。若要多走一步，為祈祈做甚麼或是說甚麼支持話語，她還是沒這個力氣。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOLzuaXCGo

第一步是最艱難的一步。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwemlOMsFM
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvtJ5cCpVe
是否有甚麼實質困難？沒有。純粹是開不了口。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2cE1c54hw

巴士站前，二人道別。馨儀在巴士上等候開車時間到來，祈祈則跟著只顧低頭玩手提電話的家傭姐姐回家。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN97mmoeOJt
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2grmumcOsC
祈祈家住區內頂級的私人屋苑。每次回家均會路經富麗堂皇的電梯大堂、環境優美的花園、設施齊備的高級會所和室外暖水泳池。家門後的玄關掛滿一家三口的合照，狀甚溫馨。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7jK79hqLP
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX3lzBxLB1
每一事物都在提醒她：父母為她付出了大量心血和金錢，而他們只是要求她考取好成績，毫不過份。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJKQFTwvgy
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2beNd2zIBW
他們不過份。是自己不夠好。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbMnKoNHSe

匆匆吃過家傭姐姐準備的茶點，西多士配錫蘭紅茶，外加溫水服送醫生處方的藥物和維他命丸。吃完後，要張開口讓家傭姐姐查看，防止她把五顏六色的藥丸藏在舌根。家傭姐姐臉上的無奈，源於祈祈的年紀和安裝在暗角的閉路電視。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOFrWiQnjq

練鋼琴，練小提琴，做功課，吃晚餐，溫習課本，洗澡，刷牙，備課。睡覺。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkBRpu2GjC

「晚安。」埋頭於圖則當中的工程師父親淺笑一下。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEvAUvgrTl

「晚安。」忙於回覆客戶電郵的經理母親淺笑一下。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaE4zonEVt

「晚安。」祈祈模仿父母的淺笑。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1tHHkkRpr
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaQjg9Ravs
祈祈理解，父母也是凡人，沒能全面顧及生活上的所有。要顧及維持家庭生活質素的薪金，就顧不了家人之間的關係。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs6ipZBdtG
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtQs35bSLE
能夠降低生活質素和薪金金額，以換取更多家人之間的相處時間嗎？570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRzr5tYU0C
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxPTo8iC2M
好一個奇怪又現實的城巿。大部份受薪人士的工作時間和薪金金額沒有一定關係。調低薪金金額不代表工作時間得以縮短。既然如此，何必調低薪金金額？570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSXvn57EzO
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLE1HRdrgnB
父母屬於「必須以過長工作時間換取優厚薪金」一類。他們努力工作，期望早日升職到「能夠以正常工作時間換取優厚薪金」的層級。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIMA9phndb
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoUDbldLTb
和父母一樣，祈祈是成熟的、懂事的。她明白社會的荒謬，選擇不作聲。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURIDokvJkr
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegONWyLzOI
曾經，不懂事的祈祈過份介懷父母對她的冷漠，選擇了「表達」。他們帶她見心理醫生，醫生處方了一些藥物。服藥後，身體不適應，頭暈作嘔，反應緩慢，集中不了精神。成績一落千丈，學校容不下她，請她離開。好學校婉拒她。570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafEeritEFt
