老太太奉上熱茶。老先生嫌棄水溫過熱,茶葉味道泛酸。439Please respect copyright.PENANADzFB77vCzt
439Please respect copyright.PENANAHL6FJuq96g
老先生備好晚餐。老太太嫌棄菜莖軟爛,沒有草青味道。439Please respect copyright.PENANAIJT4NK4vIE
439Please respect copyright.PENANAMx8AobzUBD
他鼾聲吵耳,她說話大聲。他腳跛走路慢,她眼矇視力差。439Please respect copyright.PENANAu0zUBiV9sm
439Please respect copyright.PENANAyi2ECcEgov
老太太嫌棄老先生,老先生嫌棄老太太。439Please respect copyright.PENANAO1LYCv9Y7c
439Please respect copyright.PENANAoBezrBQRKa
孫兒好奇他們如何開始相愛。439Please respect copyright.PENANA9DqlVmxBC5
439Please respect copyright.PENANAEDPP5gAh1u
「指腹為婚。」老夫婦難得異口同聲。439Please respect copyright.PENANASkFNwFIe4G
439Please respect copyright.PENANAsqsPTaeIt6
孫兒問他們之間可有感情。439Please respect copyright.PENANAx1LdEoWdB9
439Please respect copyright.PENANAjGOe5IbphY
「誰會跟這個鬼東西有感情?」老夫婦甚有默契。439Please respect copyright.PENANAcTEl5cizH3
439Please respect copyright.PENANA8p3WBEAo2R
孫兒提議他倆離婚,反正時下一輩輕易結婚、輕鬆離婚,毫不突兀。439Please respect copyright.PENANAeTouYqdd9o
439Please respect copyright.PENANALKpZv5jWwa
「不了。一把年紀,時日無多,無謂生事。」老夫婦齊齊搖頭,笑罵孫兒戲弄他們。439Please respect copyright.PENANA2hbKJHhOrV
439Please respect copyright.PENANAscGcJpd8CR
夜,同床共枕,老夫婦輾轉反側。439Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZlNzm68lz
439Please respect copyright.PENANAlfEGk6re2X
不愛對方,卻了解對方,對方心中所思不言而喻。439Please respect copyright.PENANAlkvj7fU9Eh
439Please respect copyright.PENANA27lAIZAuJx
翌日,老夫婦申請離婚,再次成為單身的梁先生和陳小姐。439Please respect copyright.PENANAyf4pb4sy38
439Please respect copyright.PENANA5UXD7o3xac
有人勸阻,有人嘲笑,有人冷眼看笑話。439Please respect copyright.PENANACxs1l5J1e6
439Please respect copyright.PENANAp7du7Z0aNo
二人並肩走在路上,探討為何有人會勸阻他們離婚。439Please respect copyright.PENANAjiB8bf4rir
439Please respect copyright.PENANApDPiQRCqIZ
「寧教人打仔,莫教人分妻。大家好好歹歹要循例勸說幾句。」439Please respect copyright.PENANArDrizYvFaD
439Please respect copyright.PENANAy8aDn64y5h
「他們口裡當然說得輕鬆。又不是他們每晚忍受你的鼻鼾!」439Please respect copyright.PENANAKaUndT3ukf
439Please respect copyright.PENANA1BhH5sJmis
「又不是他們每天聽你扯大嗓子講秘密!」439Please respect copyright.PENANAmBIuCFr88R
439Please respect copyright.PENANAxIxNYydMRB
路人側目,二人會心微笑。439Please respect copyright.PENANAr28MAQSh5P
陳小姐慣性奉上熱茶。439Please respect copyright.PENANAtCpZRR0wlY
439Please respect copyright.PENANAnaEVtfBuAP
「謝謝。」梁先生雙手接過熱茶,一飲而盡。439Please respect copyright.PENANAiNhY7nyyDe
439Please respect copyright.PENANAKkwWFjhxly
陳小姐霎時愣住——怎麼糟老頭突然變得如此有禮貌?439Please respect copyright.PENANAkEMwencJgP
439Please respect copyright.PENANAnqmdrnaXFK
老先生如常備好晚餐。老太太低頭吃清光,沒有半句批評。439Please respect copyright.PENANA2boeAiqd24
439Please respect copyright.PENANAnAWxWFzS04
梁先生默默觀察——怎麼老太婆突然食量大增?439Please respect copyright.PENANABi7uZy5p7V
439Please respect copyright.PENANAYYmBlzSBXi
夜,分房休息,輾轉反側。439Please respect copyright.PENANAfvZLSR5t23
439Please respect copyright.PENANAJJfr7yR4BM
離婚以後,對方似乎會變成一個更好的人。是自己一直拖累對方了嗎?439Please respect copyright.PENANAAvk6Co4jL0
439Please respect copyright.PENANAzV9XLOnwlt
日,梁先生往公園下棋,陳小姐去社區中心唱歌。439Please respect copyright.PENANAUfNoF8Htrf
439Please respect copyright.PENANAeKg5wv4sR7
棋友盛讚梁先生是男兒之光,毋懼世俗眼光,休棄惡妻。439Please respect copyright.PENANA4shIIfwF9q
439Please respect copyright.PENANA8Nxq8COxhZ
歌友慶幸陳小姐脫離魔爪,鼓勵她尋找真愛,享受人生。439Please respect copyright.PENANADuSOtGBXcu
439Please respect copyright.PENANAPZPkapKfFB
夜,梁先生意氣風發,陳小姐沾沾自喜。絕佳心情令二人有說有笑,餐桌兩端盡是歡聲笑語。二人關係從未如此和諧。439Please respect copyright.PENANAEjyZVqc893
439Please respect copyright.PENANAqxHIBMLx1N
「早知如此,我倆不該結婚。」嘻嘻哈哈,嘻嘻哈哈。倏忽死寂。439Please respect copyright.PENANAuJ1VQVKmnA
439Please respect copyright.PENANAbBhQeUlLM1
無心戲言如刀如刃,一下子捅破心理防線,逼使二人直面真相——五十年的婚姻根本是錯誤。439Please respect copyright.PENANAiwVc0UwFRg
「怎會是錯誤?沒有你們就沒有我。除非你們認為我的存在是錯誤。」兒子向來頭腦清晰,總能以一句說話終結話題。439Please respect copyright.PENANAsEBo93FfOy
439Please respect copyright.PENANAJpMyJp52Im
彷彿有道理,似乎無道理。二人心裡納悶怎麼自己婚姻的意義竟在他人身上,而非自身。若果兒子是個十惡不赦的混蛋,代表二人根本不該結婚?如今兒子有為能幹,代表二人相處得更苦更不融洽亦是最為合適?439Please respect copyright.PENANAiVtmEU0gcB
439Please respect copyright.PENANAo85IwhbCq6
互換一個眼神,確認彼此心思——繼續唯唯諾諾吧,千萬不要惹火兒子。439Please respect copyright.PENANAgVc3GoAO3T
439Please respect copyright.PENANAyeePmblRfe
與兒子道別後,梁先生往公園下棋,陳小姐去社區中心唱歌。439Please respect copyright.PENANAsF2msyKBSO
439Please respect copyright.PENANAqu7PFgd8GM
三局將罷,棋友提議到鄰近小學觀看開放日話劇表演,孫女當主角。盛情難卻,梁先生只好跟著去。439Please respect copyright.PENANAh6gfRioRmz
439Please respect copyright.PENANA0eNhYeltAK
青春,熱鬧,與梁先生格格不入的氛圍。不習慣,想要離開,霎時又不知可以到哪兒去。居所以外的地方充斥著虛偽的正能量。該要擊節讚賞孩子精心準備的無聊話劇,該要接受兒子似是而非的自私理論,該要賦予五十年婚姻一個動聽感人的意義……439Please respect copyright.PENANABW7HPNL79W
439Please respect copyright.PENANAufqiT8W616
五十年,美女變阿婆,小子變阿公。小子當年沒有太多關於愛情的想法,純粹年屆適婚之齡,湊巧阿媽與不知在哪兒結識的金蘭姐妹約定要結成親家,他就這樣糊里糊塗娶了老婆,成為男人。她從此屬於他,他會好好保護她。她是自己的妻子,她是兒子的媽,但未曾想及她其實只是她。有如身體手腳,她的存在是那麼自然而必然。試問誰會特地抽時間為手腳絞盡腦汁賦予其動聽感人的意義?除非失去了手腳,才會想及當初活動自如的美好時光……439Please respect copyright.PENANA5I3up4zzhO
439Please respect copyright.PENANA5pjzzPrsxI
話劇完結,孩子謝幕。幾句寒暄,告別棋友。439Please respect copyright.PENANAerOuYnohRs
439Please respect copyright.PENANAaBYvOiZlMJ
傍晚,天色紫藍帶黑,街燈暖白帶金。梁先生心事重重,雙手插袋,低頭看著腳尖慢拐回家。門開,看見陳小姐安坐梳化收看電視節目,梁先生頓時如夢初醒——忘記買餸煮飯!439Please respect copyright.PENANA59x5MVyOaf
439Please respect copyright.PENANAYRSPoVqxYa
陳小姐見他愣住,識趣指向電視櫃上的兩張宣傳單:「附近有新餐廳,下午茶挺划算。」439Please respect copyright.PENANAPrcrofOZtd
439Please respect copyright.PENANAzetkeqmFJh
「你吃飽了?」梁先生知道陳小姐會如何應答,所以他必須裝傻。439Please respect copyright.PENANAcaWUx51y26
439Please respect copyright.PENANABeFvrcfxnq
「飽了。」陳小姐不知道梁先生看穿她的意圖,所以她繼續裝傻。439Please respect copyright.PENANAeAq40ghWSV
439Please respect copyright.PENANAcJvciFFdog
「那就算了罷……原本打算今晚帶你吃九大簋。」439Please respect copyright.PENANAn7siTEa4uX
439Please respect copyright.PENANA19Zxa0BoIt
「下次去吧。今晚肚子撐得鼓鼓的。」439Please respect copyright.PENANAKCBtfUPF0R
439Please respect copyright.PENANATfJN7tWkUm
梁先生翻熱昨天餘下的飯菜當晚餐,份量剛好只夠一人享用。繼續翻找,發現有幾條番薯和老薑,如獲至寶。「要吃蕃薯糖水解膩嗎?」439Please respect copyright.PENANAjlVOEhicId
439Please respect copyright.PENANACA4QuDeZVG
「也好。」陳小姐察覺梁先生經已看穿她的心思,唯有裝傻。439Please respect copyright.PENANAKrHDVHe85r
439Please respect copyright.PENANAIOrUlVvTwc
是世故。是責任。是習慣。439Please respect copyright.PENANAZwf5ITvuAq
439Please respect copyright.PENANA228P6bCfde
不是關心,不是感情。439Please respect copyright.PENANAxqNqSlPtox
439Please respect copyright.PENANABFNJwHXroe
二人都這麼認為。439Please respect copyright.PENANAik5cyRGZiw
雖未完成離婚手續,但陳小姐回復單身一事已傳遍社區中心。她感到尷尬,畢竟離婚絕非光彩事情。439Please respect copyright.PENANATxUCLlGTx3
439Please respect copyright.PENANAFSnx7aONQ2
「你很勇敢。放棄安穩生活,勇於追求理想,不是很多『銀髮族』做得到。」歌友們大多已婚,有兒有孫,與陳小姐背景相若。439Please respect copyright.PENANAHu6gfgfItJ
439Please respect copyright.PENANADC2SWRRo7I
「其實……我不清楚自己想法,整輩子糊里糊塗。年輕時按家人指示嫁給他,五十年來一直依他意思處事做人。現在竟然因為孫兒幾句無心提問申請離婚……我真是個不知所謂的人。」陳小姐苦笑,笑大家誤會了她的動機。439Please respect copyright.PENANA6AQBU3R732
439Please respect copyright.PENANAXCwlOmHFqX
「五十年的安穩和習慣,並非三言兩語可以破壞。如果你本身沒有離婚意願,幾句說話不足以煽動你作出實際行動。」歌友甲鼓勵陳小姐,希望她不要自我懷疑:「你並不糊塗,十分清楚自身想法。」439Please respect copyright.PENANAexxh1fq0bo
439Please respect copyright.PENANAFJQvYBkIuy
「可能你不察覺日積月累了大量的小小不滿——例如嫌棄說話、廁所板開合問題、清理渠口蓋掩髮絲、廚藝差,諸如此類的——沒有宣洩出來。你孫兒的說話只是導火線,真正的炸彈早已由你丈夫親手埋下。」歌友乙感同身受,以陳小姐名義道出自身實況。439Please respect copyright.PENANAH2itdmVmbG
439Please respect copyright.PENANAKTa4qdsqR2
見大家表情感慨非常,陳小姐馬上明白大家都暗暗不滿自身的婚姻,把情感投射在她身上,而非真心認同她的決定——大家的話不能作為參考根據。所以問題回歸原點……439Please respect copyright.PENANAxiqqjXzkLu
439Please respect copyright.PENANA49fuN0cLXz
散席,回家,未見梁先生身影,估是尚在公園忘形下棋或是正在格價買餸。陳小姐環視全屋,心裡倏忽生起異樣的陌生感,愣在大門後不知所措。傢俱仍在原本位置,不知怎地竟有一絲說不出的違和,似乎它們都不該在這地方。還有,窗外風景明顯變了樣。路邊大樹何時如此靠近窗戶?窗櫺款式怎麼花俏得如此老土?地磚……我們是用這種顏色的地磚嗎?439Please respect copyright.PENANAaITKAh5WhK
439Please respect copyright.PENANAyCpeVvzjaH
啪——身後大門突然被推開,狠狠撞到陳小姐的背。439Please respect copyright.PENANA1Aydxuwig7
439Please respect copyright.PENANAGnd7Ejg3t1
「哇!你為何站在這位置?想被撞死或是想扮鬼嚇死我?」梁先生受驚破口大罵,雙手卻誠實地放下沉甸甸的菜籃,開燈,攙扶陳小姐至梳化休息:「回家不亮燈又不作聲,發甚麼神經?」439Please respect copyright.PENANAKH2uf97hS9
439Please respect copyright.PENANATnuBX3glxK
陳小姐情緒尚未平伏,默不作聲,傻痴痴望著梁先生。439Please respect copyright.PENANA0uaN2GpnOA
439Please respect copyright.PENANAeRnwnLbY6x
「沒事吧?眼睛又不舒服?你流眼水!」梁先生與陳小姐相伴多年,自然而然將目前狀況聯想至她的眼疾:「是否今早忘記滴眼藥水?你六十幾、快將七十歲,怎麼還未懂得照顧自己……」439Please respect copyright.PENANAsrGa4GM2hf
439Please respect copyright.PENANAlkyPNMe1Xz
見梁先生嘮嘮叨叨,陳小姐終於確認自己身處何方。並非兒時居所,亦非初嫁時的新居,這是陪她度過幾十年光陰的家。回過神來,隨意交出一句說話結束事情:「由明亮地方走入未亮燈的家,眼睛霎時間適應不來……」439Please respect copyright.PENANADKGiUqtoFc
439Please respect copyright.PENANABHqjxAS16e
情理之外、意料之內,梁先生翌日跑到屋邨管理處,投訴走廊燈光太亮。他的蠻不講理有時候是窩心至極的表現——如果陳小姐有心情去留意的話。439Please respect copyright.PENANAFNevfZyOHc
離婚聆訊,司法常務官再三細閱文件內容,然後望望兩位申請人,眉頭輕皺:「決定?」439Please respect copyright.PENANAisVcLJH1R1
439Please respect copyright.PENANAJdCCydbU5W
二人點頭。439Please respect copyright.PENANAzdfFLfKVtP
439Please respect copyright.PENANAUHhwNKi4L8
「請開口回答。」這位司法常務官長年處理離婚案件,面對過數之不盡的離婚夫婦,不難看出梁先生和陳小姐的猶豫糾結。439Please respect copyright.PENANAErBkR8X0Op
439Please respect copyright.PENANAYnW0T7kuPp
難以啟齒。畢竟並非有甚麼深仇大恨,全是瑣碎小事情,不想講得太決絕,令對方難過。439Please respect copyright.PENANA6hsgHiIn6F
439Please respect copyright.PENANAUGOVIH0jyh
「決定?」司法常務官再問一次。見兩人依然優柔寡斷,不禁慨嘆:「清官難審家庭事。你們的兒子早已長大成人,對財產分配沒有特別要求,甚至不敢堅決表達離婚意願。到底你們為何要申請離婚?」439Please respect copyright.PENANATeRCKKAKKZ
439Please respect copyright.PENANAzPyD4DeRNE
其實……其實沒法交出像樣的答案,因為所有事情過於細碎。細碎的不滿、細碎的幸福、細碎的感情……所有細碎混集一起,結果只能看見事情細碎的片面。看見很多,細碎很多,紛擾很多。太多太多,唯有選擇。選擇記住不滿,選擇忽略幸福,選擇輕視情感……439Please respect copyright.PENANAQTuOPkkFko
439Please respect copyright.PENANAbJ57o0SmLc
被客氣地暗暗臭罵一頓後,二人跟著兒子離開聆訊地點。二人問兒子意見,兒子模仿司法常務官口吻用字笑罵他們不知所謂,然後以認真口吻唬嚇他們絕對可以成功離婚。439Please respect copyright.PENANA4Jhjlwv2Kw
439Please respect copyright.PENANAUvFBDxzONo
兩口子四目交投,不約而同心想離婚後再結婚會有何後果。439Please respect copyright.PENANAnTcflWXllC
題解:439Please respect copyright.PENANACmHewjeOIz
「昏」是日落後天黑的一段時間,引伸為闇昧、昏庸。所以題目《昏姻》語帶雙關,指「姻緣的晚期」、「不好的姻緣」,暗嘲兩位主角糊塗而愚蠢。
