他在梳化上猛然醒來。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuaIgudHsB
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFh0maKhlTs
電視仍然亮著，新聞報導員正在講述關於疫情的新聞和消息。內容千篇一律，悶人又煩人。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaUul9egpj
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtx5fe0Iwua
他打個呵欠，伸個懶腰。雙掌使勁按壓梳化，借力撐起整個人，避免膝頭過份受力。許是在凹陷的梳化坐得太長時間，大腿和臀部均感到少許麻痺。不至於會跌倒的程度，但他下意識地一邊倚扶著傢具，一邊拖著腳步走向浴室。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrmAJKoIhQ
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbNjwGyJWr
人老了，身體差了，動作遲緩了，連小便如此簡單和基本的本能也變得困難。甭提總是瞄不準便器，尿液還要是逐滴逐滴慢慢滴出來，彷彿要滴乾他的尊嚴。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMELGqgADBr
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKQVV4c4V0
怎麼辦？可以怎麼辦？吹口哨吧。口吹曲子，耳邊響起熟悉的歌聲，心裡默唸自勵自欺的歌詞。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZ9aQyUOBz
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0TgCxQQVx
莫再悲 莫再傷 遇到悲哀休誇張261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEknbIkjsH
誰亦要經風與浪 誰遇挫敗不受傷261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKkJQ61Nsb
逝去的 莫再想 路正崎嶇更漫長261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktNKA5yWae
何用嘆息風裏望 寶貴光陰笑著量261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYOhDTdjor
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Hjek3kUTN
小便後，步出浴室，再次聽到報導員的沉悶腔調。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnoAnfllwP
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjqL5D8ysH
抵不住。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fgiDI8TsG
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqp4DN4VbEe
他決定到公園散步。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVcFO5RdOt
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJWElsYVYT
望望手錶，是上午十時半。難怪放眼所見多是上年紀的人。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mLu2dTbgV
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72egkr6A8D
好福氣的，或是三五成群談天說地，或是在家傭的攙扶下散步。福薄的，或是推著購物車奔波買餸，或是顫巍巍地被送上療養院的巴士。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqqZKb5OW1
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qIbck8IuT
自己有福氣嗎？托賴。能走能動能講能吃，與兒孫同住。雖偶有口角，卻也沒有特別煩心事。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLuTlXilju
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUY74imJASg
他知道自己該要感恩，奈何始終沒能衷心感謝上天。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0zpdkwYiJ
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4tqYVBHLt
輕嘆一聲。繼續走。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVY0f9M2of8
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ARBmo98t7
樹影婆娑，鳥叫蟲鳴。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEoJ84WNPd
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBMvHu1mn6
他不自已憶起亡妻……261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDPMQO6cC3
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvP6pJDOO9
三年前的夏天，她在家跌倒，傷及腿部筋骨，自此總是步履不穩，走路時偶爾會突然腳軟跌倒。兒子勸她多休息，不要外出。她明白兒子苦心，奈何整天悶在家中令她心情抑鬱，精神越益差勁。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbU4S35wXjV
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWx2qpgHA7
他偷偷帶她到公園散步散心。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyirAxl2joh
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bcGdnqvcT
「我的腿康復不了，是嗎？」261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgPpWKIlLV
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBgFGnEykh
「不是。你向來身體強健，這小小傷勢不是大問題。」261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0evG6AoZx
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmVJ5czEiM
「我何時可以痊癒？我想去探望朋友。」261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5rQK7wjeI
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUnex0RMlv
「快了、快了。不用著急！」261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqC45oIuw6
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPnsHcbVB2
「即是何時？」261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCK2Yl7nkkp
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWreRWGc99
「下一個夏天。」261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDV0yW6ay0L
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP09CyhBgxh
她幽幽回望，驚訝丈夫斬釘截鐵交出一個確實答案——醫生也不敢斷言她會否康復。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mkBSBPO41
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWv2tIYWpBQ
樹影婆娑，鳥叫蟲鳴。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3ZuYzTPS7
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWi0Gv1Vcck
感動，明明眼前只有絕望。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw15PIXPEz4
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukEEeJKLgV
她的手忽爾不再無力，牢牢緊挽住丈夫的臂膀。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yrbubxbUk
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaEpvU0HJ2
奇蹟？希望？不。僅是信念，難以言喻的，難以理解的。他不是神、不是醫生、不是專業人士。他僅是一個脾氣古怪的躁狂糟老頭。但她就是相信他。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgMlYjRa6H
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE5yMTHYPF
內心終於安定下來。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioMomofGSy
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDY6AzCziLe
她沒再糾結於健康問題，開始向丈夫講述她的未來夏日大計：「探望朋友前，我要先辦一件十分要緊的事——吃『菠蘿油』！」261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gc1GMwIbv
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uXK8bRWGN
「但你的血糖……」261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oKy3CYgKN
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnwQui6pP7
「我向來身體強健，這小小血糖問題不是大問題。」261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTe3wa2OkW
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGKAwqHUJu
他會心一笑，笑她依舊貪吃如豬。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSUyK0Mi92
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInpJAEffi9
下一個夏天到來。她的腿傷還是沒能康復，走路時拐得更嚴重。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb37R1652dU
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDip0tqRQj
兒子送她一根拐杖。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoatrazUMET
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHusjoaIdhF
當晚，她躲在浴室裡啜泣。他沒有上前安慰，因為所有安慰說話都沒能扭轉衰老之勢，倒不如讓她盡情宣洩情緒。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVakhyd5tE4
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcD2frlp2h9
她不知道，整個晚上，丈夫徹夜無眠，眼睜睜望著天花，細聽她的哭聲，細想她的未來。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1hsU9jxlJ
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRz4xalmiN
天亮，兒子和媳婦準時離家上班去。他送孫兒到學校後，馬上回家慫恿妻子一起外出逛街。「夏天嘛！當然要吃『菠蘿油』！」261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnufy6JHiI
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEktCR44Ik
妻子笑了，連忙穿上最漂亮的衣褲鞋襪，戴上最喜歡的髮夾，塗上最鮮色的紅唇膏。她沒有使用兒子送她的拐杖，因為丈夫就是世上最好的拐杖——依著他、靠著他，她安然走到今時今日的七十高齡。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJn2o4fCC5
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRc1WG1c4X
鐵路車站裡，人流如鯽，彷彿有股無形的強力水流在背後催促著。他懶理，繼續保持慢調，只知自己不僅是自己。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoU6hSXL4X
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxR9lUcdoUn
終於來到馳名的冰廳，二人各點一客「菠蘿油」。不好吃，亦不是回憶中的味道。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUobOTg4y8N
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tu0An6Oev
不要緊，反正「菠蘿油」僅是一個名目而已。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTg70k7bNj
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlWfK7CjYP
夫婦相視而笑。笑甚麼，不知道，大概是完成了十分重要的事情吧。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSKVC0mpvW
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoW676vP0d
於願足矣。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2uUyS7KNl
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Z9YagktBE
沒過幾天，還未開始探望朋友，她已於睡夢中悄然離世……261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpbtMLi5w6
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XRouUMs2M
公園裡，樹影婆娑，鳥叫蟲鳴。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJjZp5BvX0
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfg16u6Zzc
他不動聲息，藏起思念，繼續開步走。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWT4qYNWYT9
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRPveOsVV6
總得走下去，不是嗎？261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIs6QqDkC0
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKhlj9Fanm
不努力走下去，就不會知道下一個夏天是甚麼光景。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyUGRuvCdy
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCISjzc9zzP
走到涼亭，看見熟悉的棋友正在對弈。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LJwAFbE0d
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlnM9IhSov
棋局中，事事分明，步步無情。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8F297zq4s
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZska5t2hlf
他專注觀賽，全然忘記身後的樹影鳥蟲。261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlN3vx7EY53
