他在梳化上猛然醒來。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZfjBrtPao
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44FtJ9HHBV
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNzjxUc7Xz
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61wL906D9u
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oC2azerWe
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvSHXfqkdm
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfya57P9Z6u
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYlNFZ3XES
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QVQqgmZ16
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9JHEtyk42
莫再悲 莫再傷 遇到悲哀休誇張386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuc19efWRRx
誰亦要經風與浪 誰遇挫敗不受傷386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QxdOW9oaE
逝去的 莫再想 路正崎嶇更漫長386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhLlIuzSdi
何用嘆息風裏望 寶貴光陰笑著量386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTszsQ8Kgl
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgLMTb7B82
小便後，步出浴室，再次聽到報導員的沉悶腔調。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2r7Hmjm9Xd
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeAecv9FUd
抵不住。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqM5NKopUM
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI12GrFxNbj
他決定到公園散步。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxN4cGlqnaF
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcW6qOD41s2
望望手錶，是上午十時半。難怪放眼所見多是上年紀的人。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CT4YNZnIu
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrG1gqBzQD
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0a2HH0i6Dv
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QMLkkuySw
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9ITlAXkpC
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCUdho4HSs
他知道自己該要感恩，奈何始終沒能衷心感謝上天。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjujvwAP49z
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSN3Fd7Vxc
輕嘆一聲。繼續走。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLHnkPktb2
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQFqHhZt87
樹影婆娑，鳥叫蟲鳴。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoVOw9upFA
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVHO4sTkAw
他不自已憶起亡妻……386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhw0oSjUND2
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfxbctEIFd
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpSdKgimtp
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZYpEf7yRm
他偷偷帶她到公園散步散心。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHroEcd513
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwj4dhPss5u
「我的腿康復不了，是嗎？」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1W1So36cP
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KZ0nqIJu0
「不是。你向來身體強健，這小小傷勢不是大問題。」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrjB669JYU
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfG2F5aarKd
「我何時可以痊癒？我想去探望朋友。」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbwxjv5dgD
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7TPMsqRQD
「快了、快了。不用著急！」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbRCdsgHdf
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFx6j7wIc2
「即是何時？」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OIdZW7Kax
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKoMLQ2EkZ
「下一個夏天。」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zfJKEs5t7
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLovfxqItS
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvh5EHfWs8
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybTUfrgGnV
樹影婆娑，鳥叫蟲鳴。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNoeRuG96N
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyAxn9bpm7
感動，明明眼前只有絕望。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprei7Xn4SG
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ffNtjWOTv
她的手忽爾不再無力，牢牢緊挽住丈夫的臂膀。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Fqa0ESO6L
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dWKsvbHpC
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaC3Upha7Sd
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNP6YtAuhem
內心終於安定下來。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGnZ14bw5g
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1nYKuh8v2
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』！」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJ9dvnPAP5
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNre9CK2wwe
「但你的血糖……」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrCg35Hcvc
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ642F6TVXo4
「我向來身體強健，這小小血糖問題不是大問題。」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBcfPHXBk9
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIv7GBgJvn
他會心一笑，笑她依舊貪吃如豬。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNs37TXjdz
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FjHQR6hvI
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2G5FfCP6Cx
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN32KJgGNT9
兒子送她一根拐杖。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0SIHESVxV
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTa5BCHDjbq
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3LCk5ZaUK
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUlR2d9BXv
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTizx39SjV5
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ARWVRCkmf
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』！」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3t7gXxHc3
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KiLVecOqC
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxn4JK49GEF
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNEL6pjAxz
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWXTkLYN0w
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQL40CMS6JY
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8pgxDeD3b
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOGftLgA1x
不要緊，反正「菠蘿油」僅是一個名目而已。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54KuN8TuFo
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh29htVxUbk
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo75P7B9tp3
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXQFdSm1fn
於願足矣。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPW8hwaTIZ
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqXsdkKqv5
沒過幾天，還未開始探望朋友，她已於睡夢中悄然離世……386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Olk0UUD65
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIcDnVPK1g
公園裡，樹影婆娑，鳥叫蟲鳴。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrAGTbAF2D
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFDdMDFeer
他不動聲息，藏起思念，繼續開步走。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPJlswVYqy
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1x7O0D8kr
總得走下去，不是嗎？386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0F44Fq2JT5
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdcUhkk0WJ
不努力走下去，就不會知道下一個夏天是甚麼光景。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrng9q8LCR
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CQ10Xhi7M
走到涼亭，看見熟悉的棋友正在對弈。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WJSKkjBWi
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXts1gTySY
棋局中，事事分明，步步無情。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0CZ8WRUdd
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMtkoCEjLn
他專注觀賽，全然忘記身後的樹影鳥蟲。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqf24FipwN
