WhatsApp傳來一則信息,原來是Kenneth。249Please respect copyright.PENANA9wgcPv50Pb
249Please respect copyright.PENANAW0cL9yQq25
「多謝你地揀左份咁好嘅禮物。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAjYQLvWMSXK
249Please respect copyright.PENANAFL4fUmZVTr
「我宜家先知,原來係你同Joe一齊買。哈哈。」249Please respect copyright.PENANA6FvGXF7bcg
249Please respect copyright.PENANABMkgcIckEg
Kenneth還附上一張插滿卡片的卡片套的圖片。他信守承諾,開始用那份禮物。知道朋友喜歡自己買的禮物是一件讓人心滿意足的事,就像母親看著自己的子女吃著自己做的菜,吃的很享受的情景一樣。249Please respect copyright.PENANAiZR7PpZ71H
249Please respect copyright.PENANAHGDgtmLbjB
「唔洗客氣,你鐘意就好喇。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAYqucl7pyrg
「Joe話叫我幫佢揀。其實最後都係佢揀。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAelw7DNTHnY
249Please respect copyright.PENANANWnzAgd0Zb
我還是告訴他,他親愛的朋友Joe其實很著緊他,也很留意他日常的生活。249Please respect copyright.PENANADUk3U1MTkU
249Please respect copyright.PENANAFvjH9JutXA
「估唔到Joe會送禮物比我,諗唔到佢會咁上心。」Kenneth很快就回覆。249Please respect copyright.PENANACA6rKaiVPb
249Please respect copyright.PENANAGDXHZIuFp1
「點解咁諗?佢唔係對朋友好好嘅咩?」我以為Joe對Kenneth的上心,Kenneth一早感受到。249Please respect copyright.PENANAIYlU9E3n3T
249Please respect copyright.PENANA0bbXWI0Fg6
「唔知啊,佢咁多朋友,可能會唔記得我呢。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAVe2GAF6eZm
249Please respect copyright.PENANAUCzQxjlUJc
「乜佢好多朋友?」我想從Kenneth身上更加了解Joe。249Please respect copyright.PENANAWN8aKhtPlX
249Please respect copyright.PENANANxVmQnO5yR
「係啊,好似成日都同女女WhatsApp,上堂又好多朋友一齊坐,有時會有人話佢好狗公。」249Please respect copyright.PENANA4Bi5prZhVN
249Please respect copyright.PENANAwQLuMlg1v0
「狗公」,是一個繪影繪聲的詞語。根據香港網絡大典,狗公是指那些遇上女生就會不顧一切,喪失尊嚴、不擇手段地去討好女性的男人。他們一向奉行著「不論好醜,但求就手」的宗旨去獵女。249Please respect copyright.PENANAhsbpNLwyzH
249Please respect copyright.PENANAjcx4vFDuZH
如果一個男生被冠以「狗公」之名,大概是他討好女性的手段太過明顯。249Please respect copyright.PENANAay0U7LXVjs
249Please respect copyright.PENANACLfp8rqDvc
「狗公」,是對男性其中一個最大的指控,一旦被冠上名銜,身邊的女生大概也有所防範,可以當朋友,但絕對不可以再進一步。至於Joe是否狗公,從Kenneth描述Joe的行為,包括不停WhatsApp女生、上課的時候總是跟女生坐一起,他有可能是「狗公」。249Please respect copyright.PENANAdTdAtUR87p
249Please respect copyright.PENANAco4Xs2810E
如果你問我狗公是怎樣的存在?我不能給答案,因為我未接觸過狗公。一來我不屑狗公的行為,二來,狗公不會看上我。249Please respect copyright.PENANAmz7KOnQOQm
249Please respect copyright.PENANAr24pk3Jy7b
曾經Angela常常被狗公看上,她跟我埋怨應對狗公讓她心力交瘁。249Please respect copyright.PENANAhGTa7z0mRk
249Please respect copyright.PENANAl7ZVKpTMJ9
「Angela,有人追你,你都唔開心?」那時候我這樣跟她說,因為她很想交男朋友。249Please respect copyright.PENANAMVWPvSBQzf
249Please respect copyright.PENANAVDdK1D9R0B
「好煩嫁,啲人日日搵水吹,成日以為自己講啲野好好笑,又唔知自己幾無聊。」Angela一臉嫌棄。249Please respect copyright.PENANAofYSRUW6kG
249Please respect copyright.PENANAdWJZ4aPBl6
「你唔係好想同人吹水嘅咩?」249Please respect copyright.PENANAwnrhnI3AWl
249Please respect copyright.PENANAXgarn9yB6H
「唉,你唔會明佢地幾煩。你個人成日都咁頹廢,連狗公都唔會狗衝你啦。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAjzo2t7z1it
249Please respect copyright.PENANAHvHUHrdfJ9
「唔衝咪好,反正我都唔會鍾意狗公。」我不稀罕的說。249Please respect copyright.PENANA1XIf1oZIOe
249Please respect copyright.PENANAwvvN7mAzDK
我從回憶重新回到WhatsApp的對話,我問Kenneth:「咁你覺得佢係咪?」249Please respect copyright.PENANA6Bz0taHE5j
249Please respect copyright.PENANAXaZfiU2DfI
「我又覺得佢唔係咁,佢只不過同女仔傾到計姐,可能係啲仔妒忌佢掛。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAgWfcyGqdat
「都係啲人鐘意玩佢,佢又好似唔係好介意。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAzp1Wankm3b
249Please respect copyright.PENANAiINnsjhPg6
「咁佢都幾玩得。」我回應。249Please respect copyright.PENANAGNpFJN7T6F
249Please respect copyright.PENANAGbIWGiuoA4
當一個男生連被冠上「狗公」之名也沒有多解釋,甘願比其他朋友繼續玩弄,這個人大方得有點誇張。249Please respect copyright.PENANA83r9kBagVh
249Please respect copyright.PENANAIzHiARBIW2
「佢好好嫁,成日都派source比啲朋友,不過間中會埋怨下啲朋友freeride次次都係靠佢source。如果係我就應該唔會比啦。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAH8DxRSgL4Y
249Please respect copyright.PENANAU4YE20h5Ep
「原來佢咁好人。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAoFTA2pXgjo
249Please respect copyright.PENANAstY69teiML
「不過佢最憎人地話佢好人,可能成日都收好人卡。」249Please respect copyright.PENANA3Fqk259ZnQ
249Please respect copyright.PENANAkcIfTP7odh
在這個時代,被稱讚是一個好人,不是值得高興的事。特別當身邊的女生,或是心儀的對象說出一句:「你係一個好人。」。這句話背後真正的意思是:「我唔會同你一齊」,狠狠的被判死刑。249Please respect copyright.PENANAaIRIJXPdOV
249Please respect copyright.PENANA5e6FLgtrq0
當初人們用「好人」去包裝,以為可以將拒絕這一回事對男生的傷害減低,以為男生會為著自己的讚美而釋懷,更重要的是不想被冠上無情地拒絕他人的污名。以「好人」為理由,這樣一來,大家都有下台階。然而,被稱為好人,比直接聽到女生說「我唔會鐘意你」更加難受。249Please respect copyright.PENANAIrt21ACWUU
249Please respect copyright.PENANAn3exbPYUxX
如果我是那個收到「好人卡」的男生,我會想,為什麼我是一個好人,你卻要拒絕我?難道好人也有錯嗎?拒絕一個人,實在沒有必要冠冕堂皇。249Please respect copyright.PENANAGxq7TZYp3Y
249Please respect copyright.PENANA3XsVnMSQBD
被稱讚「好人」不是一件光彩的事。249Please respect copyright.PENANAYcz7YiiWQf
249Please respect copyright.PENANAiuY3huIUzG
想到Joe這樣常常為大家提供Source,如此的博愛,也很難避免被稱呼為「好人」。想想那些詞窮的女同學,收到source時,大概會覆個「thx」。受了人家的恩惠,總不能只覆三個英文字母,於是多打一句,「你真係好人喇」,再加個雙手合十的emoji,這樣的回覆就好像跟自己收到的source對等。249Please respect copyright.PENANARXC69Rqvxt
249Please respect copyright.PENANAgTchhgmA0n
想起Joe收到一而再,再而三的「稱讚」,大概也很無奈吧,儘管這跟談戀愛沒有關係。在那些為求source的女同學心目中,他是一個好人,一個派source的好人。想到這裡,我突然有點幸災樂禍。249Please respect copyright.PENANAzFpkG32r96
249Please respect copyright.PENANAtUIZvP7TGf
「哈哈。」我回覆Kenneth。249Please respect copyright.PENANATBIK8P3IT2
249Please respect copyright.PENANAJLR4CH1yf1
「個個都以為佢好social。」Kenneth回覆。249Please respect copyright.PENANAtUeJOE8vbb
249Please respect copyright.PENANAvzI8O8hq3o
我心想,Kenneth常常說他有好多朋友,而他也展示出三寸不爛之舌,跟任何人都可以聊得開,他至少比起我跟Kenneth social吧。249Please respect copyright.PENANA0JFOKlTtbH
249Please respect copyright.PENANA2xNpqyxPeH
「佢唔係咩?」我問。249Please respect copyright.PENANAd1JpMS4xUh
249Please respect copyright.PENANAubUZpvOv32
「未識佢之前,我以為佢都係果啲鐘意周圍yo人嘅人。其實佢唔係大家想像咁鍾意social。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAGFalgDh0xF
「點都好,佢係我好好嘅朋友。」腦海出現Kenneth真誠的樣子。249Please respect copyright.PENANA4mtpN1L3gh
249Please respect copyright.PENANAM7FMMxAzt6
「好羨慕你有個咁好嘅朋友。」我回覆。249Please respect copyright.PENANAt0p98UCQkx
249Please respect copyright.PENANAzw40JkgM8L
「佢都係你朋友黎。」Kenneth回覆。249Please respect copyright.PENANAMhtJ7ZlJE7
249Please respect copyright.PENANAx1j1ujLZA1
「唔知呢,佢咁多朋友。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAk5lBbcR7mG
249Please respect copyright.PENANABSonTAkSKS
「佢多朋友好似同你係咪佢朋友冇衝突啵。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAvEZamRLA2F
249Please respect copyright.PENANA6VxmToyWp5
「都係。」249Please respect copyright.PENANAaUwj6CvBAL
249Please respect copyright.PENANAZFBTpoZW55
不知從何時開始,當知道自己的朋友有其他朋友,或是認識了新的朋友,就像自己的心分了一角,不知所蹤。無論如何大方,都是隱隱若若有種若有所失的感覺。249Please respect copyright.PENANAaRm9jpPa2E
249Please respect copyright.PENANARHA7bfTo62
人們想要知道自己在別人心中的位置,可能是想知道自己投入的時間是否對等,或是想知道自己投放的感情是否值得。如果,我只是Joe朋友裡面的其中一個,那麼,他去認識朋友,我又有什麼資格去猜度?而我,是否也對等的把他當作是朋友中的其中一個?249Please respect copyright.PENANAOwhZjZRcH5
249Please respect copyright.PENANAtj5vun9mmc
Joe,人緣很好,為人也很細心,很重視朋友,只是偶爾裝出一副不在乎的樣子,偶爾講話比較直接、不羈。他不愛打卡,不喜歡抽煙,他也會覺得無聊。249Please respect copyright.PENANAViZTJWwGQx
249Please respect copyright.PENANAhAzY7elTyK
其實在Joe的心裡,我是一個怎樣的角色?或者,在他云云的朋友當中,我可能只是當中的一個。249Please respect copyright.PENANATq9r8zhBts
249Please respect copyright.PENANAFOgYxOP8pI
Joe或許也會約其他女生外出,比起Joe WhatsApp裡面的其他女仔,我只係最普通嘅一個。回想起他總愛滴滴噠噠的按著手機,應該是在回覆那排山倒海的訊息。249Please respect copyright.PENANAMjcLSnPoCd
