假日,醫院內,光仔的床邊何其熱鬧。429Please respect copyright.PENANAnFnUFZ1KW5
429Please respect copyright.PENANArgMQoK73oK
籃球隊隊員三人、光仔女球迷五人、楠少、阿藍和祈祈。十一張嘴吱吱喳喳,分吃帶來的大袋零食,又動作浮誇地角色扮演當時裁判員的驚訝模樣,吵得護士板起臉孔,下逐客令。病房瞬間重歸寧靜。429Please respect copyright.PENANADk38RQ24Lt
429Please respect copyright.PENANAu3QHG1HnLl
「你真受歡迎。」與光仔相鄰的志恆羨慕又妒忌。429Please respect copyright.PENANAdKVdQyQvED
429Please respect copyright.PENANAU55HCiik7l
「你也很不錯。早上有兩位『美女』來探望你。」光仔嘲弄說。429Please respect copyright.PENANA3qmyyBJtU6
429Please respect copyright.PENANAzQxl5DPhwH
「馨儀樹敵太多。」志恆欲哭無淚。429Please respect copyright.PENANA3bUlk6BqdJ
429Please respect copyright.PENANAxzpO7LKuQC
那兩位「美女」不是真心來探望他,而是為了和他合照,上傳社交網絡,還特意標註馨儀,暗諷馨儀冷酷無情。馨儀向來架子大,不屑與話不投機的人打交道,致令流言廣泛流傳之際,沒有人願意幫腔。429Please respect copyright.PENANAjWMescNfdx
429Please respect copyright.PENANAyVD8Hp8oBV
「打架的起因和馨儀有關嗎?」光仔傷勢較志恆輕得多,能夠自行落床,坐近志恆,大模大樣在他面前吃零食。429Please respect copyright.PENANAzTQA4v5fps
429Please respect copyright.PENANAsMifkrrmWp
「我想先跟馨儀商討,才決定是否公開真相。」志恆臉部被打得不成形,一只牙齒脫落;以右臂格擋自衞時,被打裂骨頭;側腹中了多拳,需要等候檢查報告,再作判斷;大腿傷勢較輕,只是肌肉撕裂,現出紅紋。429Please respect copyright.PENANAMKMb5X7fPg
429Please respect copyright.PENANAdhFvi7TBY3
「我以為你已不喜歡她。」同樣為情所困的光仔,是少有的一本正經。429Please respect copyright.PENANAxk6qVEgHIC
429Please respect copyright.PENANArhYp2sqf11
「我也以為是……」志恆笑自己幼稚。429Please respect copyright.PENANAjF6SHiR7Zh
429Please respect copyright.PENANAwCfh3LYqhe
「謝謝爆籃皇一言驚醒夢中人,令我發現自己猛鑽牛角尖,只是看到事情的一小部份;謝謝爆籃皇教導有方,令我立即知道自己有何不足,不用慢慢摸索;謝謝爆籃皇搶先動手,令我處於『受害者』角色,還擊有理……」這算是哪碼子的感謝!他恨不得將爆籃皇的惡行公諸於世,要他萬劫不復!但在一切行動之前,他首要顧及馨儀的感受。429Please respect copyright.PENANAK6E0RxcnNd
429Please respect copyright.PENANAIYWj7FgeHJ
相比報復爆籃皇,他更想彌補自己的過錯,好好保護馨儀。429Please respect copyright.PENANAbPDdLFozbE
429Please respect copyright.PENANA8CMs3wJWB0
「慢著!爆籃皇在眾目睽睽下先行動手……」光仔如夢初醒:「難道他有甚麼辦法脫罪?他可不是笨傢伙!」429Please respect copyright.PENANAjdOHksrsN2
429Please respect copyright.PENANApI3NXGSlev
「誰怕他?放馬過來!」志恆想起馨儀受辱,忍不住火燒心頭。429Please respect copyright.PENANALND1Akr2CL
429Please respect copyright.PENANApEIOOE6dat
「還有,你怎麼向警察解釋事發經過?總不能每次都推說頭痛、頭腦未清晰吧。隱瞞有關馨儀的事,會對你不利嗎?」光仔頗為志恆擔憂。畢竟志恆為人呆板,不太懂得隨機應變,容易被唬嚇、出亂子。429Please respect copyright.PENANA5jEF2TfuWn
429Please respect copyright.PENANA6icjNoi5fG
「管它的!」志恆大被蒙頭,假裝睡覺,不理光仔的嘮叨。他不是沒有想及這類問題,而是沒能想到答案。429Please respect copyright.PENANAZpobyNP8zj
429Please respect copyright.PENANAYMrhzl6B4Q
一直裝睡,一直在被窩裡等馨儀到來。429Please respect copyright.PENANAA9yYzoc6U7
429Please respect copyright.PENANAEV9tGOKBZt
為何馨儀還未到來?她會來嗎?難道沒有人通知她?她不會不知道,剛才兩位「美女」不是標註了她的社交網絡帳戶嗎?難道馨儀不會來?也是的……那些流言蜚語、自己對她的惡言、爆籃皇對她做出的卑劣行為……429Please respect copyright.PENANA4knmjo4kKO
429Please respect copyright.PENANA6ELXpiK4dS
他不能光躺著等她來!必須要盡快康復,出院找馨儀,向她道歉,然後待她更好更好更好!429Please respect copyright.PENANAcWseSogsqW
429Please respect copyright.PENANAfrIX08QBCW
志恆茅塞頓開,一手撥開被子,想要向光仔討教如何哄回馨儀。429Please respect copyright.PENANA93Kedbg9uz
429Please respect copyright.PENANAgziDS12rlb
話未出口,他又呆住了。429Please respect copyright.PENANAxyo8InA709
429Please respect copyright.PENANACbncGwD5mU
「怎……怎麼了?」床邊的馨儀被志恆嚇得差點打翻水壺和水杯:「要我立刻離開嗎?」429Please respect copyright.PENANA3cHPCLfGdr
429Please respect copyright.PENANAD8WUh8OmK3
「不……不是……我……我……」看見馨儀在身邊,志恆突然再次回復舊模樣,優柔寡斷。429Please respect copyright.PENANAZfN9HATk5x
429Please respect copyright.PENANAVFyueSf48j
「有事要告訴馨儀嗎?」光仔特意打岔對話。雖則希望志恆和馨儀可以盡快和好,但當務之急,必然是解決志恆和爆籃皇之間的麻煩事。429Please respect copyright.PENANAMiZguJUYHv
429Please respect copyright.PENANAlOGsbuwBIt
「對!」志恆回過神來。「我在男廁……」他在馨儀耳邊略述事情經過,還播放手提電話裡的影片,要她戴耳筒收聽。429Please respect copyright.PENANAOmA6T7WdZw
429Please respect copyright.PENANAlK9e4zZ6Fc
馨儀面色大變,雙目發紅,驚恐又氣憤,活像是志恆將她推入萬劫不復之地:「你為何如此諸事!」她幾近歇斯底里地扔下手提電話和耳筒,奪門而出,奔離醫院。429Please respect copyright.PENANAtOJXiZdBV9
429Please respect copyright.PENANAkR780mA87d
怎麼會這樣?還以為啞忍可以了事,將秘密永遠埋藏。萬料不及,爆籃皇那傢伙竟敢張揚開去!縱然他講的不是秘密的核心,但球場混戰勢必引來調查……429Please respect copyright.PENANADSzqEy1SZA
429Please respect copyright.PENANAWuZen7W2j7
晚意漸濃,昏黃街燈引來不少煩人飛蟲,隱隱約約地嗡嗡嗡嗡。馨儀的雙腿痠軟無力,不得不停下腳步。她大口大口喘氣,苦澀的汗水與眼淚混和在一起,再也分不清彼此。429Please respect copyright.PENANA2EOY0KNIuQ
429Please respect copyright.PENANAsXjgh1mU7A
也許,志恆的做法才是上佳之策:將爆籃皇的惡行公諸於世,防止更多女生被他的假面具騙倒。可是,代價就是要坦白她的秘密。429Please respect copyright.PENANAJb6M3EpUdX
429Please respect copyright.PENANAkQ3TrhEYMX
無論如何選擇,秘密的公開似乎勢所難免。差別只在「被動」公開或「主動」公開……429Please respect copyright.PENANAjCY2pqjKTl
429Please respect copyright.PENANAyFuMZq3r8M
輕快的手提電話鈴聲響起。來電顯示是光仔的名字,但她知道說話的人會是志恆。429Please respect copyright.PENANAUxd8E6mbxH
429Please respect copyright.PENANABfWHmMzHZC
要向志恆道歉嗎?畢竟他是無心的,甚至以她的感受為先,不向任何人吐露男廁內的事情……429Please respect copyright.PENANAlLCtQl8Fif
429Please respect copyright.PENANAnH3r3h7iAK
馨儀接下來電。429Please respect copyright.PENANApd0WZEVgR5
429Please respect copyright.PENANAFHL5c84njB
「馨儀,對不起。」志恆的聲音是那樣的稚嫩可愛。429Please respect copyright.PENANAfwOf4V2gGK
429Please respect copyright.PENANAij6oyOPFad
「志恆……對不起……我不該……那樣對待你……」馨儀很後悔自己未有盡力珍惜他的愛,哭聲蓋過志恆的聲音,淒酸無比。429Please respect copyright.PENANATjhBmOGYG4
429Please respect copyright.PENANAqSkgwkIsfs
她不該對志恆發脾氣,也不該以「不自覺」為開脫藉口,淡化自己對志恆無情行徑的罪過。以她的年紀和智商,未必清楚自己想要甚麼,但絕不會不知道自己的行為在拖沓志恆的心神和光陰。429Please respect copyright.PENANAXocqI1lR9p
429Please respect copyright.PENANA3WqqdpPfFB
「志恆……謝謝你……」馨儀衷心感謝志恆仍在為她費心思。曾自問對志恆不薄,惟當與志恆的無限付出併在一起比較,她的「好」又顯得很虛偽,不值一哂。429Please respect copyright.PENANA7AuSaJal1i
429Please respect copyright.PENANAFXOTdXS7IT
志恆受不了馨儀的哭聲,打從心底痛上來。趁她哭得回不過氣的瞬間,他連忙插嘴打岔:「馨儀,我想通了。因為我愛你,所以你不需要說『對不起』和『謝謝你』,甚至連『我愛你』也不需要講。『我愛你』是我的個人選擇,不論成敗,我該要承擔自己的責任和後果,不該強逼你接受我單方面的個人選擇。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAb0fN6h1ixA
429Please respect copyright.PENANA14C5PKEwU3
馨儀為志恆的無私付出而感動,感動化為衝動,衝動催生了疑幻疑真的愛情……錯覺。馨儀本能地作出斬釘截鐵的判斷,沒有任何理據作支撐。感動終究沒能昇華成愛情,是她的錯,也不是她的錯。429Please respect copyright.PENANAinJ2hNUaws
429Please respect copyright.PENANAJHbyoffiv7
電話兩端,二人泣不成聲,為了各自的原因。429Please respect copyright.PENANAYpIKXbVgbR
429Please respect copyright.PENANAel1wYlEMEC
志恆為馨儀,馨儀為自己。
