每次心情欠佳,總會不自覺踱步至湖邊。人人說湖景秀麗,是大自然送給小鎮的珍貴禮物。我不以為然——不就是水和樹而已——難道其他地方沒有水和樹嗎?若問這湖於我是否毫無特別之處,我會回答說,它的意義在於我和珍妮在此度過的快樂時光。178Please respect copyright.PENANAz1PD0YDYfL

珍妮是我的童年玩伴。她與我同齡,就讀同一學校、同一班別,住在同一街區。學校裡,我們相鄰並坐。放學後,我倆結伴到湖畔耍樂。她拔來蘆葦草耐心教我編織草蜢;我細心挑選扁平光滑的石子與她片石仔;她指著湊巧停在她頭上的艷麗蝴蝶,自稱蝴蝶仙子;我拈來幾朵小花簪在她髮鬢,說她是最美麗的新娘子……這湖等同珍妮。看見它等同看見珍妮,等同回到那段快樂無邪的日子。178Please respect copyright.PENANATUcMnhUSM1

吁一口氣,放眼遠眺。日輪將落未落,漫天橘黃,雲朵瘀灰帶紫。鴉鴉鴉,倦鳥知返,沒入樹海。湖面倒映一切細節,卻不曾擁有上述任何一分半點——它只能倒映著、旁觀著。我和珍妮的身影亦曾倒映在此。魚兒們有看見嗎?牠們理解我倆的行為和感受到箇中快樂嗎?我傻了吧!竟作出此等無謂幻想!178Please respect copyright.PENANAUQooSxelSg

熱水蒸汽遇上四吋白色亮面方形瓷磚,凝成大小不一的小水點。小水點聚成大水點,變重,滑下,畫出多條格外彆扭的水痕。每個細小的彎、細小的曲微微改變後來路向。情理之內、意料之外,最終竟組聚成一條不自然的完美大弧線。178Please respect copyright.PENANAFYg1eeKz1p

也許是剛巧浮上湖面的大魚。本身活在水裡,所以地面沒有任何痕跡;只冒出頭部,但有一定重量,所以瞬間再次沒入水裡,水聲輕促;是活物,所以沒有直沉湖底,相隔幾分鐘再次冒出水面,造成第二次聲響……178Please respect copyright.PENANAWMLLe2RMqw

她驀地在離岸三米處停住,整張臉蛋露出水面。是一張少女的臉,清純脫俗,五官精緻,尤其一雙清澄藍眼更是令人一見著迷。她沒有答話,迷惘回望。178Please respect copyright.PENANANVg8sw0DVN

「你有沒有乾的衣物?遭遇壞人嗎?需要報警或是通知你的父母嗎?」我緊張再三提問,她卻保持沉默。或許她嗑了藥,或許她體溫過低,或許她因為其他緣故神智不清,不過當務之急是帶她離開湖水。我在附近找來一把藤蔓,拋向湖水,以肢體動作示意她捉住。她愣住幾秒,方才明白我的用意,照辦如儀。178Please respect copyright.PENANA44QKBsftXE
178Please respect copyright.PENANAmGrnRQRAkl
我使勁發力,終於將少女拖至岸邊。放下蔓藤,上前提拉她的左臂,奈何她比我預想中更重,無法單靠我的力量把她拉上陸地:「你自己也要加把勁!抓住草地用力爬或是其他方法……你也要努力!」她似乎聽不到(可能是聾子)我的說話,但我肯定她神智清醒——她的美麗眸子一直注視著我的臉,焦點明確。178Please respect copyright.PENANAGRzJ31U2Wh

一分鐘後,她仍然半吋不移。我開始懷疑她是否正在耍我,故意留在水中。一時分神,拉住她左臂的手鬆開了。誰料她雙掌按地,縱身一躍,飛身撲來,重重壓在我身上。我失衡往後跌,後腦先著地,幸好背後是柔軟草地,沒有受傷。不過難免天旋地轉,一陣暈眩,無法立即起來,只好閉眼稍息。178Please respect copyright.PENANABMEVUhT5In

隔著材質透薄通爽的衣褲,我清楚感受到少女冰冷的裸體。滑嫩巧手在我臉部和頸項來回遊走,手肘無意間擦過我的乳頭,豐滿軟棉的胸脯隨著她的動作、時輕時重在我腹腔施壓,纖幼無贅的腰肢不經意磨蹭我小腹……我不許自己繼續思考下去。這是不應該的。儘管她是多麼怪異,但我不該生起任何污穢念頭。178Please respect copyright.PENANAuGQDy0qUsQ

廿五年前十一月二日的早晨,晨運人士發現有屍體漂浮於湖面。死者是年僅十五歲的珍妮,全身只有一個傷口——胸膛被剖,心臟被摘——死後被棄屍湖中。由於被泡在水裡時間不長,加上水溫偏低,所以屍身保存完好。警方找到大量線索,可惜線索零碎,加上疑犯擁有完美不在場證明,結果案件不了了之。178Please respect copyright.PENANAzHDnmmfQLA
178Please respect copyright.PENANAsLhfknTebF
有人說死者致命傷是胸膛刀傷,心臟是被湖中魚兒吃掉。有人說死者陰魂不散,夜夜在湖中尋找被摘的心臟。有人說吃掉心臟的魚兒會化成人魚,在夜裡伺機向路過人士無差別攻擊,以洩冤屈……178Please respect copyright.PENANA8nhfzjyn5c

「魚!」我被少女的魚尾巴嚇得頭腦清醒,用力推開她。她手肘擦傷流血,受驚不少,像幼童一樣坐在原地大哭,待人上前呵哄。哭聲不大,聲調偏尖,略顯嬌嗲,似鹿叫。我下意識衝前從後掩著她的嘴巴,擔心被人發現。她雙手奮力掙扎,在我身後連環撥動的尾巴突然擊中我的背部。我痛極鬆手,她趁機爬入湖中,匆匆潛水隱去。178Please respect copyright.PENANAioiblDbhGw

「我看過珍妮姨母的日記。她說你喜歡車厘子。」伊芙幽幽一笑,天真笑容底下是放蕩妖魅的誘惑。178Please respect copyright.PENANAzFTXUXTEGs
178Please respect copyright.PENANATqOYGwmx88
我處於劣勢,必須盡快終止對話。我把車厘子歸還:「我現在對車厘子沒興趣。」178Please respect copyright.PENANAeBgLLXfPJ4
178Please respect copyright.PENANADwDGQ7i4Qr
「不要緊。」伊芙接過車厘子,隨手把它們扔到旁邊大樹下,三隻小鳥迅即上前搶食。「反正我不是車厘子。」178Please respect copyright.PENANA3779tJsXMc

「同學,請你注重言行。」我拋下嚴厲警告,一臉正氣,轉身離開。178Please respect copyright.PENANAwXURLt8ciI

「老師,請你注重言行。」伊芙伶牙俐齒,語帶雙關。178Please respect copyright.PENANAn0t28a0H7K

伊芙講得沒錯。178Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2xXpVrwjU

我繞路走入另一樓層的男廁廁格,褪下褲子,親手解決自身的行為問題。178Please respect copyright.PENANAme8qEs3frH

傍晚,湖邊。我曾擔心這時段會有人經過,但我急不及待想見她。178Please respect copyright.PENANAtb65At7rIm
178Please respect copyright.PENANAtgntPHPCGl
「餅乾」成為我和人魚之間的暗號。她聽到我講「餅乾」就會從水裡冒出來。當然,我會給她餅乾,像訓練寵物犬,偶爾要給一點零食作獎勵。她智商不低,學習很快,短短一星期已記得所有英文字母並順序背誦。我從公事包拿出幾本兒童硬咭書,教她簡單英文詞語。Apple、Boy、Cat、Dog、Eye、Fish……全部是關於大自然、情感和人體,以便理解她的日常生活和增加她對人類的認知。178Please respect copyright.PENANAF7My7ZA1qf
178Please respect copyright.PENANAzWG4wp93js
「M……Man?」人魚指著書頁圖片,然後指指自己。178Please respect copyright.PENANAE5eD5vJ27P
178Please respect copyright.PENANAVi08T0gm1g
情況有點兒複雜。「Man」語帶雙關,意指「男人」,也可解釋為「人類」。我想了想,唯有將「Man」和「Woman」的圖片拼在一起講解生理上的分別,再以「Human」去形容「人類」。她很快明白了「Human」,接著聚焦在「Man」和「Woman」的圖片。她明顯對此有興趣。178Please respect copyright.PENANAMucur2CILS
178Please respect copyright.PENANAhhICjRIFgI
「Man。」人魚指向我。我點頭,給她餅乾作獎勵。178Please respect copyright.PENANAsut1S8Pc3M
178Please respect copyright.PENANAgj6gVBZZW9
她高興極了,興奮地比對圖片和我的身體。「Head……Eye……Nose……Neck……Shoulder?」她發現我的肩膊「不見了」,吃驚望向我。我笑,脫掉上衣,展示我的肩膊。她用手指輕擢我的肩膊,確認它們的存在。我沒有表示任何反對和不悅,於是她繼續觸碰我的身體。「Shoulder……Chest……Nipple……Waist……Penis?」178Please respect copyright.PENANATkBaTTtYUu
178Please respect copyright.PENANAoo6tAZZYiv
我只好脫下褲子。她用手指輕擢我的下體,看見敏感的它變硬、挺拔,與其他部位反應不同。她好奇,放下書本,再三擢它。我不得不阻止她——我感到痛楚。奈何她興趣不減,企圖再觸碰,我唯有教她以另一種手勢與它相處。178Please respect copyright.PENANAYIHvj5PG6O
178Please respect copyright.PENANAdOQBEpQb1s
人魚的上半身驟眼看來與普通人類無異,其實膚質有點兒似蛙類,會持續分泌微量黏液。她以雙手套弄,時快時慢,偶爾搓揉根部,為我帶來強烈快感。她為我粗喘感到奇怪,但很快意識到這跟她手部動作有關,於是嘗試用不同的節奏、力度、手勢去刺激我。我的反應越來越激烈,徹底勾起她的好奇心。她一手套弄,另一手在我身體四周探索,發現另一個十分敏感的部位——乳頭。178Please respect copyright.PENANAlRfC2Wz7lK
178Please respect copyright.PENANAt9nWTM6wgu
沒多久,精液突然噴到她臉上,嚇得她連忙跳入湖裡。我笑,穿回衣褲,喚她回來,給她很多餅乾作獎勵。178Please respect copyright.PENANAcKIsTNfzKA

凌晨,抵家。艾美未睡,憂心忡忡上前關心,問我是否遇到壞人。178Please respect copyright.PENANAHcPowH5zmQ
178Please respect copyright.PENANAphVSZjdQh8
「我很好。」我心情大好,溫柔給她一個擁抱。178Please respect copyright.PENANACRdi4pF84J

「噢!我剛才……真的很擔心你……現在你平安回來,實在太好!」她竟流下眼淚。178Please respect copyright.PENANA2XHxb3I5wB
178Please respect copyright.PENANAGcKGNEKXQU
她更殷勤服侍我,為我準備洗澡的熱水和清潔衣物,取來短凳方便為我按摩。熱力舒緩肌肉的繃緊,按摩放鬆精神的緊張。我半夢半醒,燈光化為日光,溫水成為湖水,艾美變成珍妮……178Please respect copyright.PENANAw7GlOogEU9
178Please respect copyright.PENANAYBnf1QXBTX
我從同班男生口中得知一位學長睡過珍妮。我問他們怎麼知道,他們說是學長講的。「他說珍妮不再是『車厘子』。」178Please respect copyright.PENANAk3z3sJxdTz
178Please respect copyright.PENANAlUpQFX7nkz
我心跳漏了一拍。怎麼了?我和珍妮僅是普通朋友,況且身邊不少同年紀女生已嘗禁果,不是甚麼新奇事,為何我如此在意?我餘光有意無意掃向不遠處的珍妮。她正在跟要好的女生聊天,神情舉止與平日無異,美麗依舊。178Please respect copyright.PENANA5byH6GuYhh
178Please respect copyright.PENANAo0ZUAQDnRg
夜,我對著珍妮穿過的運動服輾轉反側。我沒能解釋是何樣的情感。不是憤怒、嫉妒、傷心。是淡薄的、曖昧的若有所失、惆悵迷惘。事實上,我不曾失去甚麼。珍妮從來不屬於我。她是我人生的其中一個過客,曾經的童年玩伴、現在的同班同學,僅此而已。她在誰人的床上與我何干?她被別人玩弄成一件破爛又與我何干?178Please respect copyright.PENANAOUQHfRIFXg
178Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7FngwhNnu
我將運動服撕成破爛。布碎下,我彷彿看見珍妮的胴體。她搔首弄姿,媚眼半張,招我過去。我毫不憐惜,把她玩得死去活來。她俯身抬臀。她需索無度。她喊痛掙扎……178Please respect copyright.PENANA8E2Yyh0e06
178Please respect copyright.PENANAuhSPc6vdAE
刺激過後,只有一件破爛運動服在我面前……178Please respect copyright.PENANAotBTS8iA9e

入夢之前,只有艾美一人在我面前。
