今天是一個微熱的冬天。太陽的光線很和暖,暖得灑在皮膚上顯得有點微燙。剛剛踏入這cafe的人,是一個曬成小麥膚色、挷著馬尾、素顏的年輕女生,她穿著薄薄的白色毛衣和格子百摺裙。352Please respect copyright.PENANAARVETsoaeX
352Please respect copyright.PENANAkGityVzy8y
352Please respect copyright.PENANAkkKglmD9tE
她是屬於夏季的,氣息飄散著青春,但眼神帶點神秘,像是一片寧靜讓人無法探究的藍海。352Please respect copyright.PENANAGxa8GcvnJz
352Please respect copyright.PENANA49e5JfIbF0
352Please respect copyright.PENANAibYQDO2qQD
cafe的女主人——家敏是這樣猜想這位今天第一個踏入的客人。352Please respect copyright.PENANAQNtHlws85V
352Please respect copyright.PENANAdyj1WV1H2F
352Please respect copyright.PENANAGFCbc1ZkEn
這女生叫阿初。352Please respect copyright.PENANAu4xfS914hg
352Please respect copyright.PENANAn5xqI1JNlh
352Please respect copyright.PENANApq3FVzE8xt
「HI!你好。」阿初爽快地和家敏打招呼,露出潔白的牙齒。352Please respect copyright.PENANAqTTq1zh5xY
352Please respect copyright.PENANARGuEMlPcAY
352Please respect copyright.PENANAWw9Hzey8Ju
「HI!想點些什麼嗎?」說畢,家敏覺得自己有點笨笨的,客人才剛踏進,餐牌都還沒看,怎會知道自己想要什麼。352Please respect copyright.PENANAuyZduWrRlh
352Please respect copyright.PENANA2UnNvKrbdv
352Please respect copyright.PENANALfctYojYhI
「我先看看餐牌。」阿初笑笑,轉身徑自放下紅色背包坐下。352Please respect copyright.PENANAClxNR9O5H6
352Please respect copyright.PENANAn2DcbsUaGE
352Please respect copyright.PENANAzpqsgg6b2f
阿初最後點了一杯冰玫瑰梳打,就這樣靜靜地發呆。cafe播放著輕快的JAZZ音樂。352Please respect copyright.PENANAbDXDr18fWn

352Please respect copyright.PENANAuYC1WxVlp6
阿初是大學四年級的媒體系學生,今學期她想製作一個以咖啡店為主題的故事短片。其實她還沒有什麼想法,她還在尋找靈感的階段。352Please respect copyright.PENANAiWbpmhpkCA
352Please respect copyright.PENANA0p7oy6qS3j
352Please respect copyright.PENANAmJdua4yo0u
不知不覺,阿初在心中幻想她是這間cafe的老闆娘。她就這樣站在櫃檯的位置,每一天都被動看著形形色色的客人人來人往,雖然她是老闆,卻無法控制、預料進來的客人會是誰,可能會有可愛的人,或是態度差勁的消費者。她不會了解到有什麼人會闖進自己的空間裡。352Please respect copyright.PENANAlJavQccXb1
352Please respect copyright.PENANAAVVXkpmgZL
352Please respect copyright.PENANA3UdRb0kbi6
就在這時,有一個穿著黑毛衣的女生走了進來。她一進來就對著家敏臭臉,怒氣沖沖地點了外賣烤三文治,馬上又別過臉生氣地來背對著家敏。352Please respect copyright.PENANANl8Ozsmr84
352Please respect copyright.PENANAIvC1LToH49
352Please respect copyright.PENANAJ78500Oorz
阿初覺得這女生好奇怪,好矛盾,好可笑。352Please respect copyright.PENANAR6H5N58uVu
352Please respect copyright.PENANAR4tjsl7a68
352Please respect copyright.PENANAdDkE0w9z6B
但家敏從頭到尾都只維持平靜的臉,一副無所謂的模樣。352Please respect copyright.PENANAWBI8TwRavv
352Please respect copyright.PENANAGvhEIvroJF
352Please respect copyright.PENANA7My6WZ5m7l
阿初思緒飛快地抽離目前的境況,她幻想著,如果剛才她是這位老闆,她看到自己踏進來的一刻,她會覺得自己是一個怎麼樣的客人?352Please respect copyright.PENANAmBkcrx5EaP
她走出cafe後,這位老闆會對自己留有印象嗎?352Please respect copyright.PENANAllgWuAfVyY
352Please respect copyright.PENANAUpqRQbTDwk
352Please respect copyright.PENANAXNiSJf59Yc
她這個人對於這間cafe來說,只是一個來歷不明的陌生人,只有她知道自己是誰而已。352Please respect copyright.PENANAKwA5iJKkyk
352Please respect copyright.PENANAF4gJ8XovAL
352Please respect copyright.PENANASzKUxwL42y
隨著客人離去打開店門發出的鈴鐺聲,阿初返回現實空間裡,而臭臉的客人已不在。352Please respect copyright.PENANAZOlWfmGR2f
352Please respect copyright.PENANATQC8tD82o3
352Please respect copyright.PENANAmfs7EgCwte
阿初低頭望一下手錶,她知道自己上課快遲到了,她飛快地結帳離開,也留下一串鈴鐺聲。352Please respect copyright.PENANAhg20S6adYt

第二天,阿初選了另一間cafe光顧。這是她特意上網花時間搜尋的,她看到這間cafe有好多好評,而且還有蠻多雜誌刊登過它的報道,既然她拿不定主意,就交給他人的意見幫她抉擇。352Please respect copyright.PENANAzejDVEf1e2
352Please respect copyright.PENANAkksnHrPIZB
352Please respect copyright.PENANAzFRyVUZ0yq
這間cafe以黑白為主要色調,感覺較冰冷,對比的顏色具有張力,待在這裡,阿初覺得整個人不太自在,不像Soulmate cafe以木製桌椅為主,桌上也放著小植物,阿初較喜歡木頭那種令人心境平和的感覺。352Please respect copyright.PENANARTR0GQT6Hi
352Please respect copyright.PENANA72kLcfiGJb
352Please respect copyright.PENANAig3B6DKDMR
阿初不自覺把兩間cafe比較起來。其實兩間cafe都各有特色,沒有誰比誰好,只有合不合適自己罷了。352Please respect copyright.PENANAjPCl7WRvPL
352Please respect copyright.PENANAiutxfAX3xZ
352Please respect copyright.PENANABLiKFGRVlH
她只知道她不喜歡這間黑白cafe。那到底她想尋找一間怎麼樣的cafe作為功課的靈感呢?她好像還是不太清楚。352Please respect copyright.PENANAMu2iv1neFl

352Please respect copyright.PENANADXEhOaM19C
第三天,阿初來到一間也是以木頭裝潢為主的cafe,水吧檯旁邊放了好多粉色系的花草,地上鋪滿不同印花的階磚,椅子上也掛上天藍色的格子布作裝飾,感覺跟Soulmate cafe有一點點像,卻多了好多少女風的氛圍。352Please respect copyright.PENANAUeC88o6MfJ
352Please respect copyright.PENANAKzgFcv3KiE
352Please respect copyright.PENANAmqR99QViLV
這裡連餐飲也只有玫瑰口味的飲料,阿初又是點了一杯冰玫瑰梳打,喝時也想起Soulmate cafe來。352Please respect copyright.PENANAuHguSuBwyl
352Please respect copyright.PENANAkgcyXEUrq4
352Please respect copyright.PENANAKpYizERFko
這cafe的老闆是個中年男人,樣子蠻帥的,但身形粗獷,穿著簡單的黑色上衣與破洞牛仔褲,行為舉止也很大刺刺的,與這間店的氣質不太相符。352Please respect copyright.PENANANqzQXtIqZr
352Please respect copyright.PENANADr2UlJ6308
352Please respect copyright.PENANA3D4qq4HXKg
阿初主動走上前跟男老闆聊天,她對他沒有產生什麼情愫方面的好感,她只是好奇他一個這麼MAN的男人,為何會開一間這麼女生感覺的cafe。352Please respect copyright.PENANAvDMpHaEEoi
352Please respect copyright.PENANAKpHXDS6MkK
352Please respect copyright.PENANAVI2VXjHOot
男老闆聽畢只毫不掩飾地大笑了兩聲:「這問題有好多人問過我,這個問題背後只突顯了發問者背後的思想框架。我能說的,就是我只是做我自己而已,沒什麼特別的。」352Please respect copyright.PENANAROO1h76mCa
352Please respect copyright.PENANAyw9xR8GPVR
352Please respect copyright.PENANAW0CoiIVC5c
阿初徑自發問另一個問題:「那你會擔心遇到自己不喜歡,或是不滿意自己的客人進來嗎?」352Please respect copyright.PENANAVSjAIIT0Zq
352Please respect copyright.PENANAqVacRRM4lC
352Please respect copyright.PENANAGLpjRbGzWR
男老闆認真的回應:「知道自己是誰,心夠強大,就能勇敢面對,不會輕易給別人拉扯。」352Please respect copyright.PENANAB3nuUQBJ4s
352Please respect copyright.PENANAJjhKUIGFJe
352Please respect copyright.PENANA73obPCXzn0
阿初其實聽不明白老闆的這番話與她的問題有何關係。352Please respect copyright.PENANAbbB0Qy9w3Q

第十二天。阿初每天都去不同的cafe流連,沒有一間是重複的。直到今天,她想重回Soulmate cafe。352Please respect copyright.PENANAcFGzqbZnpz
352Please respect copyright.PENANAPAkdTgrRV0
352Please respect copyright.PENANAidbanBxdLL
天氣有點變冷了,家敏覺得今天終於有點寒冬的氣息了,而在這個與冬天相符的日子裡,她又遇到那個屬於夏天的女生。352Please respect copyright.PENANAobwdx7HijB
352Please respect copyright.PENANA7UxpUzvdag
352Please respect copyright.PENANApPqWADDCYI
阿初今天多加了一件淺灰色的大外套,仍舊挷著馬尾。352Please respect copyright.PENANAUCgschzEbL
352Please respect copyright.PENANAi7WwTQf2Ab
352Please respect copyright.PENANAkCFiUA8Qhj
阿初看到桌上放著一個聖誕雪球,雪球裡面飄雪紛飛,看得阿初有點入迷,當她觸摸著雪球的玻璃時,她想起來一個她曾交往三年的舊男友。352Please respect copyright.PENANAG87FVBLaoh
352Please respect copyright.PENANAWMXvhTtUyZ
352Please respect copyright.PENANAeT80Z5tvUh
那時,每個星期男生都會帶她去不同的cafe,阿初沒有跟他說過,其實她並不喜歡吃cafe那些精緻卻不滿足的餐點。352Please respect copyright.PENANAk0JPuNlIkb
352Please respect copyright.PENANAvHolJrvxS1
352Please respect copyright.PENANAnoEDWfFVrQ
男生喜歡夏天的熾熱,喜歡去天氣炎熱的沙灘島嶼度假,阿初也從沒跟他表示過,其實她喜歡冬天,喜歡寒冷,喜歡下雪的地方。她想被潔白的雪深深包圍。352Please respect copyright.PENANACXstVNqbNn
352Please respect copyright.PENANAL6rYDqYvsP
352Please respect copyright.PENANAjKeR6ZuTkU
男生一直以為阿初喜歡天藍色,因為自從他送過她一個天藍色的手繩後,阿初就開始挑選天藍色的東西來買。直到後來,男生才發現阿初最喜歡的顏色是白色。352Please respect copyright.PENANApXDgv0tkPC
352Please respect copyright.PENANAiMk74fuayL
352Please respect copyright.PENANAHS7q7JVHQc
阿初從來沒有發現自己的勉強配合,她一直都習慣了這樣淹沒自己……352Please respect copyright.PENANAeQWc6vpEow
352Please respect copyright.PENANAQA5YXwH0m9
352Please respect copyright.PENANAxwD5mq4VRf
最後,男生在分手時,不溫不忟跟阿初說:「妳就是不肯讓人了解妳,不肯接納自己的個性與渴望,只在討好別人換取愛。這讓妳嚇跑了不少人,包括我也會這樣逃跑吧。」352Please respect copyright.PENANANtclrfn3mY
352Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZxAcDCC5T
352Please respect copyright.PENANAuERJZgSArz
當下阿初聽到他這樣說,也只是細聲「喔」了一聲而已,不知道是認同,還是滿不在乎的。但她就當回應了他的揭穿,和完成最後的句號。352Please respect copyright.PENANA7UHhuMT5AR
352Please respect copyright.PENANAcnHZx6pZNW

352Please respect copyright.PENANAwsQMn4T0zL
352Please respect copyright.PENANAUmksAFCllq
在Soulmate cafe裡,阿初閉上眼,雙手掩臉,她雙眼感受到手指的溫暖。直到她再張開眼時,她看見這間cafe的天花下起雪來。352Please respect copyright.PENANAOjLkQ5JxwC
352Please respect copyright.PENANApSc07lLiYj
352Please respect copyright.PENANAmHmnozWBDZ
整間cafe都飄起半透明狀的點點雪花,好迷幻,但這雪好像只有阿初看到而已,或許也只需要她一人看到就好,那只屬於她一個人的渴望。352Please respect copyright.PENANA93EDGonUFu
352Please respect copyright.PENANAMXcsjQQ4L3
352Please respect copyright.PENANAfmJFOAMlA7
她的頭髮、肩膀、眼睫毛、手指都沾上沒有溫度的雪。其中一片雪花,緩緩降落在阿初的手中慢慢溶化……352Please respect copyright.PENANA4PDiMBeoBN
352Please respect copyright.PENANAEJkHFLRNn7
352Please respect copyright.PENANAbaeRFpf4Jr
阿初決定了,她要握起手心來,捉緊……352Please respect copyright.PENANAHBXfJb1PiM
352Please respect copyright.PENANAxXu7MQzP9y
352Please respect copyright.PENANAFguCaMCkiD
也許SOULMATE 不一定要是他人,也可以是自己與自己的一場認識。352Please respect copyright.PENANAkSNmZhsMdN
