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。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35ynWe0Ucg

「跑完這一圈，我們去吃早餐吧。」我說。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNFosg4evN
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXf4I0HVo7
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。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkRXTZw8oN
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ao68ypSMa
「早安，雯霞。早安，小康朗。」熟悉的聲音從後接近，｢早安，康和。｣523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dDSgnlm8P
說話的中年男與我並肩而行，我嘴巴半開，一副呆鈍的表情。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lFeyaxEJo
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmGzGnON4I
「早安，華叔叔。」康朗大聲喊道。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R0GnQDLlh
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDSlAxLp7q
「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。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrtYxJvVa9
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fBN1Xf8AL
「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。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnIhksfTly
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAXPqXkBCu
「我待會就去辦。」523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKU3VSx6sy
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgyqduMko0
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。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nH5fuD8TI
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonaesBjk02
我徑自走向常去的茶座，卻被雯霞從後拉住。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYLaaRgcO7
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiFol17rUA
「你要去那？忘了自己被切斷服務了嗎？」她說。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbctP6yxr76
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFQ8F4aPJW
我仿然大悟，搔搔鼻子，｢現在的我連去取號都辦不到。｣523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMvgun07IA
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcng95FIXL
「我們去排隊取號，你去服務店補交月費後再來會合。」523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWwOLkwF1c
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqI2TY3PDSh
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。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTD7d05MEYi
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOFY14SjP2
我掏出錢包走到中間的機台前，輕觸螢幕，畫面跳轉：523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13mu4Bpy2e
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoYKjufyFQ
「歡迎使用I Eyes服務，請將智網膜對準鏡頭。」523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyzzarUPAS
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUln3gKDOl
我把上身前傾，視線對準螢幕上方的攝錄鏡頭。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZa0WIuEvBF
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWISgo57yIO
「周康和先生登入成功。請選擇服務：」523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbQMpaysRK
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnW257xT5uv
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。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSn05AI1qDz
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIOJnsg93X
「繳費成功。閣下的智網膜將於稍後重啟，感謝使用I Eyes服務。」523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsA4gAX5TIj
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8DUgArHKs
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。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKksdcBrFj2
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OjDj9VUOO
「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。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHcNehxGvf
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKwi3tWnyg
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。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueg0HVda1y
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNGqw32Jpu
「請慢用。」侍應微微一笑，轉身離開。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElO68Bsl1a
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRpl6zn8rA
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。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEO6VOqD5O
523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JTwSsMNhl
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。523Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBMKoqNnow
