第一回傳送門537Please respect copyright.PENANAbqX05oyeoo
他在床上徐徐張眼。537Please respect copyright.PENANAJnQJo5rqYZ
537Please respect copyright.PENANAUcgZTThKRg
床褥太軟,腰骨微痛。這不是家裡的床。537Please respect copyright.PENANAugKcf9SIJB
537Please respect copyright.PENANAFVZbhN6zzI
暈眩冉退,目光聚焦。看見多張整齊排列的病床和面無血色的老者,他瞬間得出以下結論——醫院。537Please respect copyright.PENANANKNG6BBTVc
537Please respect copyright.PENANA2UF3cBE3nB
嗯。醫院。537Please respect copyright.PENANAmZ5ZwikbVL
537Please respect copyright.PENANArJWhb8imJZ
接受醫生的檢查,證實無恙後,獲告知可以隨時出院。護士根據過往紀錄,已通知兒子和媳婦,只待他們前來接送。537Please respect copyright.PENANALbLXOWpCzU
537Please respect copyright.PENANAl6j0uOwWxn
醫生離開後,護士也去忙別的。537Please respect copyright.PENANAuI7wxYSRQq
537Please respect copyright.PENANA5ErFat28in
他呆坐床上,默默看著醫護人員在多張病床之間來來回回,感覺實在又虛幻——活到這個年紀,總得要到醫院走幾趟,實屬平常不過的事情,對吧?537Please respect copyright.PENANALhuxwrOAzl
537Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5cyJOu9xQ
如他所料,兒子在晚上八時許現身。一臉倦容。537Please respect copyright.PENANAgFJ6ysyIu9
537Please respect copyright.PENANAxLU3LD8e4k
「醫生說我沒大礙。可能是公園太熱,熱昏了。」537Please respect copyright.PENANAdZK0rTsEBv
537Please respect copyright.PENANAnRSonr3Y7s
「那就多待在家裡避暑,不要外出四處走動。」537Please respect copyright.PENANARnyVvejSzC
537Please respect copyright.PENANArBvbUsO0Vz
「知道。」537Please respect copyright.PENANAf0LupkpbkM
537Please respect copyright.PENANAVbUDJFbypl
兒子攙扶他走出醫院,在街邊截下的士,直驅住所。537Please respect copyright.PENANAKEKuGLc1Gv
537Please respect copyright.PENANAqnU8YLCVUy
車廂裡,二人不發一言,各自對著窗外景物發愣。537Please respect copyright.PENANAstx3MJHgW7
537Please respect copyright.PENANANI4QwdtIfL
沒有怨氣或鬱結,只有緩解不了的疲憊。身心俱疲。537Please respect copyright.PENANAjnclgEzSPg
537Please respect copyright.PENANAV6KCQdeItn
黃色街燈在夜幕下迅速往後退。一盞、兩盞、三盞……不盡,無窮。537Please respect copyright.PENANAFb4P0ibw2f
537Please respect copyright.PENANAx8vgBIHcoR
兒子倏忽開口,神色惘然。537Please respect copyright.PENANAbfXd1B3Bnl
537Please respect copyright.PENANArvxl6xoVFB
「我有末期肝癌,剩半年壽命。」537Please respect copyright.PENANAittkfqPsO8
537Please respect copyright.PENANA4efLiu59QA
「她知道了沒?」537Please respect copyright.PENANAoqaEtcwUwC
537Please respect copyright.PENANAarM3TO8fpS
「不打算告訴她。」537Please respect copyright.PENANA2bAjzvynGi
537Please respect copyright.PENANAKtYNAlNIKw
「你如何在她不知情的情況下抽時間接受治療?」537Please respect copyright.PENANAr4G5h3VBig
537Please respect copyright.PENANA7fKwsSzPVG
兒子笑而不語。537Please respect copyright.PENANARM8VCLBM3Q
537Please respect copyright.PENANA5CpBtJFyRr
他愣住片刻,良久才道:「明白。」537Please respect copyright.PENANAebNYJA0gXo
537Please respect copyright.PENANAUAF3p9Ar7c
兒子輕拍他的肩膊,以示感謝。537Please respect copyright.PENANAqhAjN0uzH3
537Please respect copyright.PENANAqVheXQZ4dy
抵家。兒子依舊朝妻兒溫柔地微笑。他沒作聲,逕自到浴室洗澡去。537Please respect copyright.PENANAa7smtfuYsY
537Please respect copyright.PENANA88E0Fl4ktS
蒸氣瀰漫,看得見,抓不著。甚麼也抓不著。抓不著開始,也抓不著終結。537Please respect copyright.PENANATTrLTkuT2Q
537Please respect copyright.PENANAE9PaYwLRwo
沒選擇的情況下被生產下來,沒能選擇長大與否,沒選擇的情況下經歷病痛,沒選擇的情況下死去。生老病死,全是沒能選擇的。537Please respect copyright.PENANAnSg9YpfWS3
537Please respect copyright.PENANAWRMPi2EYwF
翌日,兒子和媳婦如常上班,孫兒如常上學,家裡只餘他一人。百無聊賴。537Please respect copyright.PENANAVw2KWYrxQo
537Please respect copyright.PENANACRO1Exe67R
他決定到公園走走。537Please respect copyright.PENANAynGvuSGbPo
537Please respect copyright.PENANAzqQ6L9xxzz
樹影婆娑,鳥叫蟲鳴。537Please respect copyright.PENANAYLP2cN2iwn
537Please respect copyright.PENANAsJhpoXua8k
此樹是否去年那樹?此鳥是否去年那鳥?此蟲是否去年那蟲?要緊,不要緊。在意,沒能在意。537Please respect copyright.PENANAslXbYhmj1A
537Please respect copyright.PENANAjDKqTzYMtO
幽幽踏步,皆因內心焦躁。537Please respect copyright.PENANAJcupkR91pM
537Please respect copyright.PENANAvLuPo6Kg69
來到涼亭,棋友們向他問好。他笑說自己比年輕人更健康。棋友們以為再也看不見他,感到難過。他認為無論難過與否,該死的時候總得要死。537Please respect copyright.PENANAZqDgZmUIIk
537Please respect copyright.PENANAeXu7jmJKJD
全場一片默然。537Please respect copyright.PENANAvnLh2iDOS5
537Please respect copyright.PENANAlDREH2FBUk
聊聊笑笑罷。下棋耍樂罷。537Please respect copyright.PENANAEXCE9nzV43
537Please respect copyright.PENANAMJ7SuUjAKV
不要問為何。不要問感受。537Please respect copyright.PENANAC9YlTCKU5F
537Please respect copyright.PENANAhUOOcOgP8u
有如那樹那鳥那蟲。沒能在意。537Please respect copyright.PENANAvr4uGZa90W
537Please respect copyright.PENANAx5PDBHfbuB
正午,他前去學校接送孫兒。孫兒說吃過同學送的怪味糖果後身體輕微不適。他不以為然。下午,孫兒痾嘔不止。聯絡不上兒子和媳婦,他只好獨個兒帶孫兒到醫院去。輪候期間,一張發白的熟悉臉孔癱軟在擔架床上,被匆匆推送入急症室深處。537Please respect copyright.PENANADbdFYdbNtR
537Please respect copyright.PENANAPInmKjtI8t
那是今早與他談笑風生的其中一位棋友。537Please respect copyright.PENANA2eEjBtebRx
537Please respect copyright.PENANAqT0xHK0ndp
數個身穿便服的男女先後抵達護士站,然後按指示守在急症室外。沒多久,醫生步出急症室,宣告棋友的死訊。男男女女隨即哭作一團。537Please respect copyright.PENANAyZ3q2aLbEV
537Please respect copyright.PENANAOtoh4xARtb
他默默將孫兒擁入懷裡。537Please respect copyright.PENANAwgJWwqlOWr
537Please respect copyright.PENANAxG385fzNFa
心慌的極致原來是平靜和淡然,皆因透徹體悟到自身的無能無力無奈。537Please respect copyright.PENANAUASQPPtT8J
537Please respect copyright.PENANA3rG8Gmcrvx
「爺爺,很熱啊!」不知袖裡的孫兒輕輕推開他。537Please respect copyright.PENANAQgS6zJkz3R
537Please respect copyright.PENANAQIwnVQWrYi
「嗯。」對於眼前一切,他花盡全身力氣發出渺小的一聲。537Please respect copyright.PENANAw9FY0tCTj3
537Please respect copyright.PENANAWNtHevQyIV
晚餐後,兒子在露台抽菸,媳婦在廚房洗碗。孫兒是個好動的孩子,五分鐘前肚痾得雙腿發軟,此刻已然在梳化上跳個不停。537Please respect copyright.PENANA6YMyvsfIWr
537Please respect copyright.PENANAACtKEgzwTH
跳跳跳,有節奏地跳個不停,像心臟。537Please respect copyright.PENANAmkw7itdL4N
537Please respect copyright.PENANAPE4eOkZNB3
心臟停止跳動當刻,棋友有何感受?掛念未完的棋局?掛念急症室外的男女親友?537Please respect copyright.PENANAk9xrwAjhKv
537Please respect copyright.PENANA4f32dfTQUG
他的目光不期然落瞄向露台,看著兒子呼出個個煙圈,圈圈復圈圈,冉升消散不復見。537Please respect copyright.PENANAYl6sucQSGR
537Please respect copyright.PENANA34kSQU9yte
不復見。537Please respect copyright.PENANAuFoGDM5edG
537Please respect copyright.PENANAzlNfppygSt
他莫名的被深深憾動。537Please respect copyright.PENANAdRlLtwhjyT
537Please respect copyright.PENANAZdaYqQtsMh
走到兒子身邊,告知棋友的死訊。537Please respect copyright.PENANA36BKffUmvd
537Please respect copyright.PENANAWekKy36Puo
毋須明言,兒子已猜測到他的用意。537Please respect copyright.PENANARcjTmvn6AR
537Please respect copyright.PENANAP8NZXwSH0S
「我不怕死。」537Please respect copyright.PENANAWVEw3vtwFE
537Please respect copyright.PENANAWAyOQiDoML
「我也不怕死——死亡並不可怕,只怕沒能完成想要完成的事。」537Please respect copyright.PENANAEatVEQYXDI
537Please respect copyright.PENANAFab1Fkq4OY
「你有沒有想要完成的事?」537Please respect copyright.PENANAX0VC5VGW5I
537Please respect copyright.PENANAEyYkXh0OKD
「每年夏天買『菠蘿油』給你媽。」537Please respect copyright.PENANAka49wvqi3T
537Please respect copyright.PENANAhCiTwLjHYS
「她的叮囑?」537Please respect copyright.PENANA8fVH1uMcC8
537Please respect copyright.PENANALxYvr1u78w
「不。她離開得太突然,我沒機會問她,只得按照她生前喜好去估計她的心思。」537Please respect copyright.PENANAl4ECb7lbZO
537Please respect copyright.PENANAF3DoMtdpxB
「別傻!她不願看見你耿耿於懷!」537Please respect copyright.PENANAqf4ngDbZpO
537Please respect copyright.PENANAqfReKZ1Q2N
「她沒這麼說。」537Please respect copyright.PENANAGeH5V1Yw1h
537Please respect copyright.PENANAEI8LFEFolS
兒子苦笑,笑他彆扭。537Please respect copyright.PENANA1hZdBLX3Wg
537Please respect copyright.PENANAcv9tmX2t6j
再次不了了之?他以為是,直至夜半聞得媳婦哭聲不絕。537Please respect copyright.PENANAO4m5HX1lWj
537Please respect copyright.PENANAv0hRBWt6SP
無論大家怎樣勸說,兒子依然不願接受治療,堅持要盡量留下金錢予家人。537Please respect copyright.PENANAwpu95M3nfQ
537Please respect copyright.PENANAI9SqhaL0VX
半年後,兒子沒死去。一年後,兒子仍活著。三年半後,兒子依然沒斷氣。537Please respect copyright.PENANAj5AbHc10Zv
537Please respect copyright.PENANAjrb3gSmUqh
問何解。醫生說原因不明,但癌細胞消失了。兒子說只想盡力工作賺錢養活家人。537Please respect copyright.PENANAhAkTGikSuk
537Please respect copyright.PENANA6uVHn3fYzT
離開醫院、歸家路上,兒子和他拐到公園散步去。537Please respect copyright.PENANAlseoPZx9VU
537Please respect copyright.PENANAxuoh3LfyiQ
樹影婆娑,鳥叫蟲鳴。537Please respect copyright.PENANAfgo7UJ7KPi
537Please respect copyright.PENANAePkBBcALG1
「你多活了三年半。」537Please respect copyright.PENANAwlybjXOGwX
537Please respect copyright.PENANAX6RNvBaOHo
「我多吃了三個『菠蘿油』。」537Please respect copyright.PENANALuxyeUpbM9
537Please respect copyright.PENANAiJir1LGfpw
「想繼續吃?」537Please respect copyright.PENANAXNMK75DNMz
537Please respect copyright.PENANA3BmkT30jm0
「是。期待下一個夏天。」537Please respect copyright.PENANAYFUlWIs2z8
537Please respect copyright.PENANABq3UXMUDyZ
兒子認為這次大病是上天的提醒,希望他往後好好珍惜時間。打算辭職休養一段日子,在接下來的暑假與大家出國旅遊後,才重回職場繼續拼搏。537Please respect copyright.PENANALsGR98PSK2
537Please respect copyright.PENANAYlYRUMkKcK
他為兒子衷心高興著,亦感謝上蒼的好生之德,沒有帶走……537Please respect copyright.PENANAKA6fF7CcoO
537Please respect copyright.PENANA2PAvh8aMOt
兒子呢?537Please respect copyright.PENANAeR4B4hMomz
537Please respect copyright.PENANAlMNbKeV9nc
悉才尚在身邊的兒子不見蹤影。537Please respect copyright.PENANAevz0EqOxBS
537Please respect copyright.PENANA4KUK9VxUea
啊!記起來了。537Please respect copyright.PENANA7Oab9zqLqk
537Please respect copyright.PENANAPy8PJNPSey
兒子去年在暑假前遇上意外,下半身癱瘓。沒能出國旅遊,沒能重回職場,沒能享受期待已久的夏日。537Please respect copyright.PENANAVNc9IGDWBh
537Please respect copyright.PENANAwBj1HLCMCD
果然。537Please respect copyright.PENANAPZCXnKrQHp
537Please respect copyright.PENANALU8v4XiDMc
不努力走下去,就不會知道下一個夏天是甚麼光景。537Please respect copyright.PENANAUm7w6RxY3W
537Please respect copyright.PENANAx83lQ9M8gW
婆娑樹影之下、鳥叫蟲鳴之中,他繼續走。537Please respect copyright.PENANAwtflBMX9Sg
537Please respect copyright.PENANA6XTGWn4Jlj
幽幽踏步慢慢走。537Please respect copyright.PENANAE1PE190Iad
