七月第一個星期六，烏雲蓋頂的早晨。我們沿著步道慢跑，運動背心和皮膚之間滲上一層熱汗。我看向隨行的二人，小兒子康朗還很有活力，妻子雯霞則搖搖頭，看來體力到頂了。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyX0xEIYEV

「跑完這一圈，我們去吃早餐吧。」我說。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTsyFATtlH
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCNtIep2ko
康朗精神的大聲喊好，雯霞頓了一下才靜靜的點頭。我們放慢步速，在步道外圍緩步。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQqAnaIQ6M

「早安，雯霞。早安，小康朗。」熟悉的聲音從後接近，｢早安，康和。｣505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcF5MWUXZHP
說話的中年男與我並肩而行，我嘴巴半開，一副呆鈍的表情。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OYkNPEl1C
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOppSfVXr3
「早安，華叔叔。」康朗大聲喊道。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QlSu6N2re
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmiG5EJh2s
「早安，阿華。」我接著說，｢抱歉，我忘了繳付上月的月費，所以……｣我伸手向半空比了比。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqF6t6jZWom
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzbp3LOglG
「我懂，我也試過忘了月費。是挻不方便的，平時一些理所當然的事也辦不到。只要到服務店補交就好，一切又會回復正常。」阿華說。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19VUoFFu8s
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wFwb1x65t
「我待會就去辦。」505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCEcY8CRdC
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxPXYeB4tH
阿華揮手道別，往步道内圍跑開。我們走完餘下的路程便離開步道，前往鄰近的露天廣場。厚厚的雲層仍未散去，令廣場蒙上一層陰影。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9sPXwIcEL
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EaSfzLbrT
我徑自走向常去的茶座，卻被雯霞從後拉住。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYro8Oj1kIX
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVJxWCBzcS
「你要去那？忘了自己被切斷服務了嗎？」她說。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrgtePUgcU
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfZRMG83YC
我仿然大悟，搔搔鼻子，｢現在的我連去取號都辦不到。｣505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zKrkkxsu7
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzA1KmaF3E
「我們去排隊取號，你去服務店補交月費後再來會合。」505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsx7VB9XNrx
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0pKMCbDxA
我小聲應好，獨自離去。服務店在廣場另一邊，是一間不起眼的小店，只有忘了用電子轉帳繳付月費的蠢蛋才會光顧。店内豎著三部有大螢幕的機台，每部機台之間由膠板分隔。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHFeFWIOrl
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6YPSdtXhO
我掏出錢包走到中間的機台前，輕觸螢幕，畫面跳轉：505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bv3zDswYV
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxsRprJFmT
「歡迎使用I Eyes服務，請將智網膜對準鏡頭。」505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pedY34MiZ
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczxgYElE3p
我把上身前傾，視線對準螢幕上方的攝錄鏡頭。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEPmOcwpBo
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEAixvZcql
「周康和先生登入成功。請選擇服務：」505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQpXCmwOIR
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikLMUET9i7
我閱覽螢幕上的選單，點選繳費服務，刷卡繳付了上月份的月費。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnT5XcBfFX
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo3DQiEJuH
「繳費成功。閣下的智網膜將於稍後重啟，感謝使用I Eyes服務。」505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61InCSvyxG
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoE5YoZgWq
我把錢包收好，步出店外。回到茶座，雯霞和康朗已經就座，我很快的坐到兩人對面。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53VUlhIfsw
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFiXW9KIQO
「我為你點了A餐和熱咖啡。」雯霞兩眼發直對著無人的位置說話。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOn3jIvE2bb
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7C9Kr1zCUg
話音剛落，侍應便把三份早餐兩杯特濃黑咖啡放到我們面前。侍應臉上浮現一個綠色方框，一旁標示他的姓名和職位，代表我的智網膜已經重啟。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5sjxnZHYn
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniNRFeQIb5
「請慢用。」侍應微微一笑，轉身離開。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzzlPixweu
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PQ5iaZ79m
雯霞和康朗面前各飄浮著一張虛擬屏幕。雯霞隨手拿起一件多士塞到嘴裡，眼睛緊盯著屏幕，另一手撥弄操作。康和半身趴在桌上，尊心觀看屏幕上的卡通片。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAGtHaUijn
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZZsNsaxnY
我拿起耳杯，輕吹杯上的白煙。調整一個舒適的坐姿，一邊享受藍天白雲，一邊喝下苦澀的黑咖啡。505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXPICOUsJJ
