第一回傳送門538Please respect copyright.PENANA4nvQnCMOFh
他在床上徐徐張眼。538Please respect copyright.PENANASuxV3XEl4K
538Please respect copyright.PENANAaiC1audkqO
床褥太軟,腰骨微痛。這不是家裡的床。538Please respect copyright.PENANA44riNL8GnM
538Please respect copyright.PENANAj0zHmZvIUG
暈眩冉退,目光聚焦。看見多張整齊排列的病床和面無血色的老者,他瞬間得出以下結論——醫院。538Please respect copyright.PENANAlysCJAmDOJ
538Please respect copyright.PENANAE5f28uTGHK
嗯。醫院。538Please respect copyright.PENANAZkc3baE83i
538Please respect copyright.PENANA4r2LFmHsb9
接受醫生的檢查,證實無恙後,獲告知可以隨時出院。護士根據過往紀錄,已通知兒子和媳婦,只待他們前來接送。538Please respect copyright.PENANAWfO4ODHNCi
538Please respect copyright.PENANAOHs0c2Lmv5
醫生離開後,護士也去忙別的。538Please respect copyright.PENANAjS7Zuwperi
538Please respect copyright.PENANAC4KiWmluvB
他呆坐床上,默默看著醫護人員在多張病床之間來來回回,感覺實在又虛幻——活到這個年紀,總得要到醫院走幾趟,實屬平常不過的事情,對吧?538Please respect copyright.PENANAk3NJOdzTaJ
538Please respect copyright.PENANAeTqnm9JJyI
如他所料,兒子在晚上八時許現身。一臉倦容。538Please respect copyright.PENANAeB8NP4GYDt
538Please respect copyright.PENANAKnqklnbuSu
「醫生說我沒大礙。可能是公園太熱,熱昏了。」538Please respect copyright.PENANA7E2rt59BR6
538Please respect copyright.PENANAxTkF6u1LmJ
「那就多待在家裡避暑,不要外出四處走動。」538Please respect copyright.PENANA1TXFmjOi1O
538Please respect copyright.PENANALjs1tpy4Vs
「知道。」538Please respect copyright.PENANAKSBmCP15jH
538Please respect copyright.PENANAQap2F1GPER
兒子攙扶他走出醫院,在街邊截下的士,直驅住所。538Please respect copyright.PENANAobZKNQg3hu
538Please respect copyright.PENANAD5yvPNMD6N
車廂裡,二人不發一言,各自對著窗外景物發愣。538Please respect copyright.PENANAahUsCjwwOL
538Please respect copyright.PENANA4vZPmXMtGy
沒有怨氣或鬱結,只有緩解不了的疲憊。身心俱疲。538Please respect copyright.PENANAIUKzXTmW40
538Please respect copyright.PENANAIAOjKCNRfa
黃色街燈在夜幕下迅速往後退。一盞、兩盞、三盞……不盡,無窮。538Please respect copyright.PENANA2Db782r7LO
538Please respect copyright.PENANA1m0uCgu2bj
兒子倏忽開口,神色惘然。538Please respect copyright.PENANA0IC0V8FuM8
538Please respect copyright.PENANA583o0hSTRG
「我有末期肝癌,剩半年壽命。」538Please respect copyright.PENANABXsdNX7fHG
538Please respect copyright.PENANAYFkoxQGA0J
「她知道了沒?」538Please respect copyright.PENANAZKFQokWeo4
538Please respect copyright.PENANAGHZp1j55Wx
「不打算告訴她。」538Please respect copyright.PENANAIjbYm5ZbsY
538Please respect copyright.PENANAWnJgsPRX9J
「你如何在她不知情的情況下抽時間接受治療?」538Please respect copyright.PENANAHueKVKpqWr
538Please respect copyright.PENANAAfr8fTj7Qs
兒子笑而不語。538Please respect copyright.PENANAys80d385Kl
538Please respect copyright.PENANAF8Ili95teJ
他愣住片刻,良久才道:「明白。」538Please respect copyright.PENANAsJ0bJk0M4v
538Please respect copyright.PENANAHuX5Qrd1YR
兒子輕拍他的肩膊,以示感謝。538Please respect copyright.PENANA1OIOzn8kYW
538Please respect copyright.PENANAna8AX2oOnz
抵家。兒子依舊朝妻兒溫柔地微笑。他沒作聲,逕自到浴室洗澡去。538Please respect copyright.PENANAif76EOYVc1
538Please respect copyright.PENANASbHvzdSqdW
蒸氣瀰漫,看得見,抓不著。甚麼也抓不著。抓不著開始,也抓不著終結。538Please respect copyright.PENANAmRAoFaQwGO
538Please respect copyright.PENANA6aq85vP2Xh
沒選擇的情況下被生產下來,沒能選擇長大與否,沒選擇的情況下經歷病痛,沒選擇的情況下死去。生老病死,全是沒能選擇的。538Please respect copyright.PENANAepJuUm0fnz
538Please respect copyright.PENANAQNuZNxYhZ8
翌日,兒子和媳婦如常上班,孫兒如常上學,家裡只餘他一人。百無聊賴。538Please respect copyright.PENANAUaR5a1siJE
538Please respect copyright.PENANAA8SF19qTC2
他決定到公園走走。538Please respect copyright.PENANA4TVp3PHOUJ
538Please respect copyright.PENANAiqWX1PLgMV
樹影婆娑,鳥叫蟲鳴。538Please respect copyright.PENANAaWfZofumYL
538Please respect copyright.PENANAwK5GLyPC5V
此樹是否去年那樹?此鳥是否去年那鳥?此蟲是否去年那蟲?要緊,不要緊。在意,沒能在意。538Please respect copyright.PENANA0VoTR6Nj6F
538Please respect copyright.PENANAGB6ea2r7RS
幽幽踏步,皆因內心焦躁。538Please respect copyright.PENANAIiVkhVvhgt
538Please respect copyright.PENANAerlfwwF1YQ
來到涼亭,棋友們向他問好。他笑說自己比年輕人更健康。棋友們以為再也看不見他,感到難過。他認為無論難過與否,該死的時候總得要死。538Please respect copyright.PENANAB7cB8EBII6
538Please respect copyright.PENANAxZhyYnhHL4
全場一片默然。538Please respect copyright.PENANAOK7Lyuwo0Z
538Please respect copyright.PENANA7NkzhMXwhz
聊聊笑笑罷。下棋耍樂罷。538Please respect copyright.PENANADPscSyaM7m
538Please respect copyright.PENANArkxuoVyzxQ
不要問為何。不要問感受。538Please respect copyright.PENANADcNjRmbt0P
538Please respect copyright.PENANA8s3TvYnhVn
有如那樹那鳥那蟲。沒能在意。538Please respect copyright.PENANAS7QyI5hU0B
538Please respect copyright.PENANAhh3l2VdgV6
正午,他前去學校接送孫兒。孫兒說吃過同學送的怪味糖果後身體輕微不適。他不以為然。下午,孫兒痾嘔不止。聯絡不上兒子和媳婦,他只好獨個兒帶孫兒到醫院去。輪候期間,一張發白的熟悉臉孔癱軟在擔架床上,被匆匆推送入急症室深處。538Please respect copyright.PENANAVeMTd4tsbG
538Please respect copyright.PENANACS90uQ3B2h
那是今早與他談笑風生的其中一位棋友。538Please respect copyright.PENANAozYnPa06U9
538Please respect copyright.PENANAQHRc9DP2fM
數個身穿便服的男女先後抵達護士站,然後按指示守在急症室外。沒多久,醫生步出急症室,宣告棋友的死訊。男男女女隨即哭作一團。538Please respect copyright.PENANAYxviK8dZZ7
538Please respect copyright.PENANAoqlJE5rd9L
他默默將孫兒擁入懷裡。538Please respect copyright.PENANA1vUjhvuRBA
538Please respect copyright.PENANAfqFB6PQC8C
心慌的極致原來是平靜和淡然,皆因透徹體悟到自身的無能無力無奈。538Please respect copyright.PENANAoBpjJXvFYU
538Please respect copyright.PENANAbxVs9ewh3X
「爺爺,很熱啊!」不知袖裡的孫兒輕輕推開他。538Please respect copyright.PENANAE8Xc5RHdHa
538Please respect copyright.PENANAUGZnqlskDh
「嗯。」對於眼前一切,他花盡全身力氣發出渺小的一聲。538Please respect copyright.PENANA7L7bN6rJ2W
538Please respect copyright.PENANAcXHNbrg7Do
晚餐後,兒子在露台抽菸,媳婦在廚房洗碗。孫兒是個好動的孩子,五分鐘前肚痾得雙腿發軟,此刻已然在梳化上跳個不停。538Please respect copyright.PENANA90MD95EVuo
538Please respect copyright.PENANAgmfHSJPRBk
跳跳跳,有節奏地跳個不停,像心臟。538Please respect copyright.PENANAWr9U0ZObSL
538Please respect copyright.PENANAZkcSK6DNFt
心臟停止跳動當刻,棋友有何感受?掛念未完的棋局?掛念急症室外的男女親友?538Please respect copyright.PENANA5SVRMyTwI2
538Please respect copyright.PENANAOoqyCnS9rK
他的目光不期然落瞄向露台,看著兒子呼出個個煙圈,圈圈復圈圈,冉升消散不復見。538Please respect copyright.PENANAUAFqFiIiAL
538Please respect copyright.PENANAfcaITFtJwE
不復見。538Please respect copyright.PENANAWS8IuaCbPh
538Please respect copyright.PENANAkzBbZ07147
他莫名的被深深憾動。538Please respect copyright.PENANAqsQfovEWKx
538Please respect copyright.PENANAM9WCCdeXnR
走到兒子身邊,告知棋友的死訊。538Please respect copyright.PENANADFv4DAFus7
538Please respect copyright.PENANA0Px0o78N4v
毋須明言,兒子已猜測到他的用意。538Please respect copyright.PENANAmqzmp14Zrf
538Please respect copyright.PENANAejOpKmYiTd
「我不怕死。」538Please respect copyright.PENANAzFcX3gxLCS
538Please respect copyright.PENANAbjEQ05LAWL
「我也不怕死——死亡並不可怕,只怕沒能完成想要完成的事。」538Please respect copyright.PENANAiCi9o2D7aH
538Please respect copyright.PENANAV8d2u1jaKA
「你有沒有想要完成的事?」538Please respect copyright.PENANA04gM2H8t8L
538Please respect copyright.PENANAYB062zDiGj
「每年夏天買『菠蘿油』給你媽。」538Please respect copyright.PENANAwvAhMrybLT
538Please respect copyright.PENANAEcfeKdV4x7
「她的叮囑?」538Please respect copyright.PENANAGaMgxqeh1x
538Please respect copyright.PENANAIXByD9w0ev
「不。她離開得太突然,我沒機會問她,只得按照她生前喜好去估計她的心思。」538Please respect copyright.PENANAHC91I5Mqus
538Please respect copyright.PENANAJNKCjW7FKD
「別傻!她不願看見你耿耿於懷!」538Please respect copyright.PENANAApqqW5MWQR
538Please respect copyright.PENANAMk65fiK7b3
「她沒這麼說。」538Please respect copyright.PENANAKD3eyAXKEM
538Please respect copyright.PENANA93DriOPLz5
兒子苦笑,笑他彆扭。538Please respect copyright.PENANA8rpoMP41sf
538Please respect copyright.PENANAmyCliSSOcb
再次不了了之?他以為是,直至夜半聞得媳婦哭聲不絕。538Please respect copyright.PENANA5RpVmoW8nk
538Please respect copyright.PENANAS4a1LoEFOi
無論大家怎樣勸說,兒子依然不願接受治療,堅持要盡量留下金錢予家人。538Please respect copyright.PENANAAny0C6GpER
538Please respect copyright.PENANA5y4K1pPUfu
半年後,兒子沒死去。一年後,兒子仍活著。三年半後,兒子依然沒斷氣。538Please respect copyright.PENANArF0QtKWzrf
538Please respect copyright.PENANAfut912e17c
問何解。醫生說原因不明,但癌細胞消失了。兒子說只想盡力工作賺錢養活家人。538Please respect copyright.PENANATW7jtNTLV7
538Please respect copyright.PENANAuuQ4WG0r64
離開醫院、歸家路上,兒子和他拐到公園散步去。538Please respect copyright.PENANAz5v8GGv0Xw
538Please respect copyright.PENANAFdfKHOMKDY
樹影婆娑,鳥叫蟲鳴。538Please respect copyright.PENANAM31N90YUpE
538Please respect copyright.PENANAYkEb45fuNG
「你多活了三年半。」538Please respect copyright.PENANAlCv1KwGZOx
538Please respect copyright.PENANATmMsrrHIZc
「我多吃了三個『菠蘿油』。」538Please respect copyright.PENANALHyFumAz8S
538Please respect copyright.PENANATlaHYog2lo
「想繼續吃?」538Please respect copyright.PENANADcJ8yKcYHY
538Please respect copyright.PENANAX6SGmur9yv
「是。期待下一個夏天。」538Please respect copyright.PENANA4hfQmq33Dr
538Please respect copyright.PENANAJuA3SyS1K1
兒子認為這次大病是上天的提醒,希望他往後好好珍惜時間。打算辭職休養一段日子,在接下來的暑假與大家出國旅遊後,才重回職場繼續拼搏。538Please respect copyright.PENANAk6XMCJkaB6
538Please respect copyright.PENANA3qBMc0q4kQ
他為兒子衷心高興著,亦感謝上蒼的好生之德,沒有帶走……538Please respect copyright.PENANA7sEwCKNzmn
538Please respect copyright.PENANAyAGC22YzzT
兒子呢?538Please respect copyright.PENANAU5k5GhfO5c
538Please respect copyright.PENANAwwQE6wnxzL
悉才尚在身邊的兒子不見蹤影。538Please respect copyright.PENANAV2PXJxe2x2
538Please respect copyright.PENANAXrzP7nQ2uT
啊!記起來了。538Please respect copyright.PENANAMKdU9MlCiR
538Please respect copyright.PENANAAEj9JLWGJo
兒子去年在暑假前遇上意外,下半身癱瘓。沒能出國旅遊,沒能重回職場,沒能享受期待已久的夏日。538Please respect copyright.PENANAfU6EtI4i6y
538Please respect copyright.PENANA5i1QfhBBGg
果然。538Please respect copyright.PENANApBrkgGhNLM
538Please respect copyright.PENANAnJji5A5gmN
不努力走下去,就不會知道下一個夏天是甚麼光景。538Please respect copyright.PENANAHusXTLYVMx
538Please respect copyright.PENANAvU3EDMmRBl
婆娑樹影之下、鳥叫蟲鳴之中,他繼續走。538Please respect copyright.PENANAysOaisx5W3
538Please respect copyright.PENANAEvvKOuiyt5
幽幽踏步慢慢走。538Please respect copyright.PENANAlqaFZEpHwz
