翻閱前陣子、加起來連一幅九宮格都還拚湊不起來的貼文後,突然發現一直在紀錄過去很久的瑣事……剛好遇上節日,增添些快樂的氛圍或許也不錯。49Please respect copyright.PENANAnc5nVQMANH

大家總習慣這麼說服自己,不是嗎?49Please respect copyright.PENANANEv1c5HHdY

聖誕節——西方流通過來的節日,不知從什麼時候開始,跟風的亞洲人們開始不明緣由地擅自跟著慶祝起來,斷章取義成單純騙騙小孩童年、大家快樂就好的節日——不過轉念一想,非虔誠教徒的西方人大概也是這麼認為。49Please respect copyright.PENANAJVS8OoMkU0
49Please respect copyright.PENANA4eTrRNI9n8
誰知道?反正我也沒認識什麼外國人。49Please respect copyright.PENANA5iw6S8URtx

「我回來了——」今天他比平常早些到家,是早於一般下班時間的三點二十分,就像一種以自我為中心的體貼。49Please respect copyright.PENANApFN7GamQpj
49Please respect copyright.PENANA9EqfkziDrj
通常這時段我都會在主臥附設的小陽台上作畫;畫著因婚姻而再也無法觸及的那片大海。而現在就連這份短暫的寧靜,都會隨時因突發狀況或者日常瑣事拖延、打破、不了了之。49Please respect copyright.PENANAIEIC6rwCDp

「爸爸回來了!歡迎回來——」49Please respect copyright.PENANAuNLSFtRdmm
49Please respect copyright.PENANAXXz1LvMYDI
「歡、歡迎回來……」49Please respect copyright.PENANAo7M65jVetr
49Please respect copyright.PENANAw8TslBMUvi
「乖,你們在家有沒有聽媽媽的話?」49Please respect copyright.PENANASNhBjmd4wO
49Please respect copyright.PENANAS3HrM2Hgcz
背對輕靠房門靜靜聽著,從語句和聲音就能想見我的兩個兒子從客廳的玩具堆裡起身,歡欣雀躍跑去投入他的懷抱。而一向溫柔可靠的丈夫此刻也會蹲下身來迎接他們,為了一視同仁而放下公事包,也不擔心明日我該如何處理他那身被孩子們弄皺的西裝,一手一個環抱住,父子深情不言而喻,總能搏得外人一口一句完美爸爸的頭銜。49Please respect copyright.PENANAlNuou9IUXe
49Please respect copyright.PENANAb7IR4SFLkH
人們常說一個人越缺乏什麼;就越容易渴求……或者設法要求自己必須做到,看來這句話在他身上同樣應驗。49Please respect copyright.PENANAJPdmqEu6i4
49Please respect copyright.PENANAaRpJVkDSGM
但說白了,他也的確是個好父親。49Please respect copyright.PENANA0dJHqpbz01
49Please respect copyright.PENANAjWapkhqeYO
「……你回來了啊,老公。」在深呼吸幾口氣調節自己語氣;手指揉按臉頰確保唇角上揚後,我扭動門把走出,笑容姿態顯得溫柔賢良,設法博得外人與他口中一句完美妻子的頭銜。「今天特別早?不是說最近案子多嗎?」49Please respect copyright.PENANAZlYo8Z0Dqc
49Please respect copyright.PENANAGUN4qJcX6G
「今天陪委託人開庭,比預期還要早結束,但要是再回事務所又差不多下班了……加上今天聖誕節,上頭的讓我直接從法院回家。」49Please respect copyright.PENANAe8gjfZY2zC
49Please respect copyright.PENANAoQHyILY1cH
讓黎真和晚真先把帶回來慶祝的蛋糕拿去冰箱,我習慣性伸手想為他脫下上班穿的黑西裝外套——卻被丈夫一個側身閃過動作。49Please respect copyright.PENANAg3tRAWA46j
49Please respect copyright.PENANARPtC9y3oYF
「顏料。」49Please respect copyright.PENANAaiAXPJKBlJ
49Please respect copyright.PENANADo2iOJlIq8
僅僅平淡的兩個字,便讓我的雙手凝滯於半空,隨後只能摸回自己作畫時才會穿的工作裙使力抹淨。49Please respect copyright.PENANAuyEdxXWAzq
49Please respect copyright.PENANAoyeafp4l5e
「……抱歉,這時間我通常都在畫圖你也知道的,所以才……」49Please respect copyright.PENANAOk7n0n2gQ6
49Please respect copyright.PENANAsPBCrZIUm2
「沒事,我不會限制妳的愛好,但記得別讓顏料沾到衣服或是家裡其他地方,事後很難清洗。」49Please respect copyright.PENANAycYOtXwHhT
49Please respect copyright.PENANAGr8rLiztq8
「……嗯。」我很想跟他說,那是水彩顏料,只要用水就能輕鬆從很多地方抹去。49Please respect copyright.PENANA0UkHKlcoNW
49Please respect copyright.PENANA4d6YaUktyf
但最終這些解釋依然沒有出口,而是隨我拖拽室內拖鞋的腳步一同帶回臥室裡的小陽台;那副還未完成的畫作前,以免成為銜接認知誤差的導火索引爆新一輪爭吵。49Please respect copyright.PENANAL9aEYRRJYs
49Please respect copyright.PENANABAXfluVguT
不能在孩子們看得見的地方爭吵,這是我們共同約束彼此的底線,誰若觸犯了——這場爭執就注定由誰道歉作結。49Please respect copyright.PENANA0lm61izoW7
49Please respect copyright.PENANACakD6HWc6i
「不要拖著拖鞋走路,下頭鄰居會抗議的。」在進來臥室拿換洗衣物時,他又補充了句。49Please respect copyright.PENANArmKxpb9GxW
49Please respect copyright.PENANA0vqmZTD19s
我不想道歉、不想在發洩情緒後還必須妥協,所以很垃圾地選擇了事前卑微。49Please respect copyright.PENANA9wmUgnc79Y
49Please respect copyright.PENANA2joHoOS3f6
「知道了。」這次我應答地很快,丈夫也在一句簡短的「愛妳,老婆」後,去外頭的浴室梳洗了。49Please respect copyright.PENANAotkoU0QD7V
49Please respect copyright.PENANAd3hXeisncb
那天晚上我們帶著孩子們在木製餐桌上,共享由廚藝甚好的他準備的豐盛晚餐;Merry Christmas 相關的歌謠圍繞切開聖誕蛋糕的刀刃分成八片三角,幸福彷彿在這一瞬間成了我們一家四口最合適的代表詞。49Please respect copyright.PENANAfDD7AZaaUb
49Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7FGa42mbw
如果,不看陽台那副被潑上水溝般骯髒洗筆水的畫作的話。49Please respect copyright.PENANAkaQXjvXchc
49Please respect copyright.PENANAvfhC226AJT
哦對了,我的丈夫……叫權時宇。49Please respect copyright.PENANALo9iJK33Yn
49Please respect copyright.PENANAIKaWk7HpWG
「聖誕快樂。」49Please respect copyright.PENANAo1UsBDZNnW
