他在梳化上猛然醒來。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qfg1XW4LO
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Pj018AewB
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunz2DroSeq
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PkYQbBLTl
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7NcPN0qgn
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjoQWmNEBU
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOiNHGmBpT
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZbaVWMShK
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwarBlwLUFM
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVSOXQFCVC
莫再悲 莫再傷 遇到悲哀休誇張262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwNxP2Hnxi
誰亦要經風與浪 誰遇挫敗不受傷262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBCSsZJ7zX
逝去的 莫再想 路正崎嶇更漫長262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39jsR4jzUw
何用嘆息風裏望 寶貴光陰笑著量262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0FnRv2Jkg
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKWBksOQf1
小便後，步出浴室，再次聽到報導員的沉悶腔調。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fPfpQsLgX
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVNQedhR3L
抵不住。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsgZlvgKWl
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6smqugHRk
他決定到公園散步。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEXhIt8BPa
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3Z4HMOf0B
望望手錶，是上午十時半。難怪放眼所見多是上年紀的人。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2z7ywF4O9
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUzzmxF6hc
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ00Q2nplXy
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJP8EpuApy1
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDkN8OoDZb
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLQpBHMfFM
他知道自己該要感恩，奈何始終沒能衷心感謝上天。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeqeeWm8oz
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6N7iGFsroc
輕嘆一聲。繼續走。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4WzCWDMUm
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiS5kTcmV0
樹影婆娑，鳥叫蟲鳴。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMMUwUVjgd
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8Mxrehxvd
他不自已憶起亡妻……262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZo4BUXNzk
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWSgyyhtdf
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHul8gvKmYA
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ571eZ232d
他偷偷帶她到公園散步散心。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHg945LNNiG
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXplksmG1bl
「我的腿康復不了，是嗎？」262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKE8yI1NKB
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3oUJ38VVH
「不是。你向來身體強健，這小小傷勢不是大問題。」262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXME272a1c
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLccmQzdAxS
「我何時可以痊癒？我想去探望朋友。」262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZzNtWFgd8
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstzzVIX4f7
「快了、快了。不用著急！」262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9zMSkA2nI
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOS12fhhx56
「即是何時？」262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytAQt5ML4x
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCOeqoWwcu
「下一個夏天。」262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2CgSfE4xT
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2zWOxZ5LV
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBqjXEVkEb
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS9MorkDnt
樹影婆娑，鳥叫蟲鳴。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94tM6DjmsJ
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPb2fLkLmU
感動，明明眼前只有絕望。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLOlShixB7
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WN2MrHM3d
她的手忽爾不再無力，牢牢緊挽住丈夫的臂膀。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9ofPQC12d
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nL0v9VQVh
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXI65tNvBWh
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacUnv7hFWh
內心終於安定下來。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhH0HDMGdT
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsk60ZJXQb
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』！」262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGJL50erTB
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9nx52827L
「但你的血糖……」262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBo7eDq4Bf
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxTRuJqPTG
「我向來身體強健，這小小血糖問題不是大問題。」262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAeDxy0XAp
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7g3IH9JJ8
他會心一笑，笑她依舊貪吃如豬。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7nLf34VyJ
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwzSvD2rkm
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTxNmX5flT
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPIhsBFsau
兒子送她一根拐杖。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigyoI6fIrv
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsRyPUjHiS
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAakojplNk
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJ8g5Xeq5B
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFv88u16wp
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtYuZzcMti
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』！」262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHvBPhkK8b
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHiMfVNNqI
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51KfifU96n
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXKTXjzLMO
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKFhqgmZCF
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAP7LDeR9T
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyKUyLFYav
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzx2WldTvbI
不要緊，反正「菠蘿油」僅是一個名目而已。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6JQAV634N
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfEBnwuBV1
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。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtUoQDfWbS
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAAicoImm1
於願足矣。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXEiA8BGE2
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwwlSxOFVf
沒過幾天，還未開始探望朋友，她已於睡夢中悄然離世……262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohqqjeNKUy
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsBpQIn7LB
公園裡，樹影婆娑，鳥叫蟲鳴。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjAvZxg6rC
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqzXprCoEW
他不動聲息，藏起思念，繼續開步走。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzcObiT6W3
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVDAYBWufB
總得走下去，不是嗎？262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLp7xP8oUt
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaneHDTHrz
不努力走下去，就不會知道下一個夏天是甚麼光景。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Upy5395rR
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yyut4B4V0
走到涼亭，看見熟悉的棋友正在對弈。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhH3Cfj8g0
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAtZBgykya
棋局中，事事分明，步步無情。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCErdHJT841
262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDjediFhQj
他專注觀賽，全然忘記身後的樹影鳥蟲。262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwd5HXlONx
