他在梳化上猛然醒來。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiNmy5I3OJ
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Rsb9pcMa5
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXUSbkfdFl
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzlSgyalki
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpG01HU8jXi
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2XgfQUTQI
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDq8EepySj2
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjcQfP6lhe
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBMIXTaCgh
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtf0GVDysxm
莫再悲 莫再傷 遇到悲哀休誇張233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQW04MLAk2
誰亦要經風與浪 誰遇挫敗不受傷233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQrE18SaMa
逝去的 莫再想 路正崎嶇更漫長233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd0qRhPlq3
何用嘆息風裏望 寶貴光陰笑著量233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbwfJPGdNL
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdwk04Z9wl
小便後，步出浴室，再次聽到報導員的沉悶腔調。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4aV3hSsY0
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9h7RQfvm1j
抵不住。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqjh24dZRa
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78rv8xnQ4J
他決定到公園散步。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEQfC6QY1H
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhCHuLOnLA
望望手錶，是上午十時半。難怪放眼所見多是上年紀的人。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxFPZi3hK1
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXAKJDoQnc
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhHWMFNxpc
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DmZlFwI7E
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjjhv3SOcT
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHF9TOXAwRF
他知道自己該要感恩，奈何始終沒能衷心感謝上天。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRiFLFgCoG
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvVFywS6ac
輕嘆一聲。繼續走。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyGPuwI0zv
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrLvLDRc4l
樹影婆娑，鳥叫蟲鳴。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhM8f1vkUi
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KKKAKPg4i
他不自已憶起亡妻……233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpkyRjm0Az
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XkeIebIRB
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eKSiAYFn7
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQxmczuhap
他偷偷帶她到公園散步散心。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLy5W3x1eX
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1MmIniAgN
「我的腿康復不了，是嗎？」233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvf4pK1sOa
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBU65b4D8k
「不是。你向來身體強健，這小小傷勢不是大問題。」233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuLXhiuQ9H
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzilpXtJXh
「我何時可以痊癒？我想去探望朋友。」233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrD9QLpMls
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBEQzq6ihK
「快了、快了。不用著急！」233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNGIHNyQM9
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzSe2gN5Jw
「即是何時？」233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdvIz1bTds
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04m3hxak0L
「下一個夏天。」233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzwc4seqI0
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyueEMmSHwO
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11sKroz3Yf
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswmKe6flnI
樹影婆娑，鳥叫蟲鳴。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLEyKDYAMt
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18WBzaeiui
感動，明明眼前只有絕望。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAp5SDanzsx
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwxcJWWo7Z
她的手忽爾不再無力，牢牢緊挽住丈夫的臂膀。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfclanBedRN
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2H9hyd5Ag
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMifjqRdin
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fpM08kLjg
內心終於安定下來。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIvp0pObZE
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVfBiCwrVK
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』！」233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrujDPZ2eN
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hs4hzgzZ6
「但你的血糖……」233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhCBiHBj57
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZIFRcq9JK
「我向來身體強健，這小小血糖問題不是大問題。」233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmglRF5K1Pn
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQScSXX70x
他會心一笑，笑她依舊貪吃如豬。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCz7tTCWnZ
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffhLfrOwOW
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFgdsMv4V2
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJo31nIfUj
兒子送她一根拐杖。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnDcVi4WRI
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7RyReYXfd
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIS9lkfeyA
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiPsGws1jR
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoi7dMaqP3
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZRiUMBcre
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』！」233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiDC5fNMM4
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGEelT6FXh
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxW38KqB4gk
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp84mYmRYZL
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cwKSVy6MK
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiZiVuFIOr
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqEfQoyrsp
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiV9XS2PCI
不要緊，反正「菠蘿油」僅是一個名目而已。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJ1u5xOi8h
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsNFjok9mn
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。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsPbHNpbP7
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSL4AFt7zj
於願足矣。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62aFge2o6v
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tfpnIlzwI
沒過幾天，還未開始探望朋友，她已於睡夢中悄然離世……233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkeMJpR3tJ
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCalnpZgyTb
公園裡，樹影婆娑，鳥叫蟲鳴。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEJpo1igFm
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ754d1O8FPU
他不動聲息，藏起思念，繼續開步走。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoa4u28dfDQ
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW67HRrAKs6
總得走下去，不是嗎？233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDjAfPYV3c
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdilU56KlZ
不努力走下去，就不會知道下一個夏天是甚麼光景。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKRqlj2ZBv
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF133uPVR3D
走到涼亭，看見熟悉的棋友正在對弈。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1M6MQYSvi
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVGmmTTClj
棋局中，事事分明，步步無情。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5ToetVooO
233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxX5mgwn9OT
他專注觀賽，全然忘記身後的樹影鳥蟲。233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF83aston2b
