天亮,上班。178Please respect copyright.PENANALIlClsYics
178Please respect copyright.PENANAoYgvICiPZf
擠進人山人海的車廂,心竟是難得的平靜。看著人們專注把玩手中的電子玩物,我心中更覺異常的安全。畢竟,好不容易才能擺脫熟人的注意。178Please respect copyright.PENANAXrjT0P1o6U
178Please respect copyright.PENANALNhSFWrMrn
車廂一如往常,平穩中帶輕微搖晃,教本已帶睡意的乘客更為昏昏欲睡。有些嘴饞的人不理會廣播的呼籲,繼續進食,令人側目。178Please respect copyright.PENANACRV52Ix4q2
178Please respect copyright.PENANA3C5uTJaBNH
食物的細碎,像沙子一樣,在人們毫不注意的情況下,悄然掉在地上,再被無意地踏個粉碎。在接著的數個車站,人們再肆意加以踐踏,令碎粉再度粉碎。178Please respect copyright.PENANATBIri0IlyX
178Please respect copyright.PENANA6VHBkEb5jq
到站了,我有意無意地繞過人羣,「不經意」踏中那些有數隻小蟻的食物碎粉,心中是一陣少有的快意。幕門關上,我回頭望進車廂,想要看看被我蹂躪過的碎粉,但列車經已開駛。178Please respect copyright.PENANAtJhEqDp382
178Please respect copyright.PENANAQfcaYZCT3E
看不見,罷。178Please respect copyright.PENANAtPYny2nUBH
天黑,下班。178Please respect copyright.PENANA4guchwSSfE
178Please respect copyright.PENANApknbVsUDea
身心俱疲。好不容易才與同路的男同事擠進車廂,繼續講上司的壞話。178Please respect copyright.PENANAo6GE7516rd
178Please respect copyright.PENANATXS2Hlie2j
「有蟻。」男同事突然指著快由我鞋面爬到小腿的一隻小螞蟻。178Please respect copyright.PENANAVek0PkHq3b
178Please respect copyright.PENANAoIP7wUKaML
我呆了。腦海中一片空白。不!有一個很遙遠的身影。那是誰?我看不見……我不想看見……178Please respect copyright.PENANA6fIAdtqdv1
178Please respect copyright.PENANA5Htf2l3qJR
「啪」的一聲,男同事一手拍在我的小腿上,那隻螞蟻——扁了。178Please respect copyright.PENANA8iWR5ddiVR
178Please respect copyright.PENANAWmTkNF3ioo
「沒事了!」他笑了笑,問我:「你很怕小昆蟲?」178Please respect copyright.PENANAf9m0ojLn4L
178Please respect copyright.PENANA8vcqE2fnfy
「不,只是怕蟻。」我感覺到,我的唇還在顫抖,但卻仍勉力一笑。178Please respect copyright.PENANAktzG3FJLii
公司,午飯時間。178Please respect copyright.PENANAe7wq9N5JW3
178Please respect copyright.PENANAo29NTrDRnP
甲小姐正在上網看劇;乙先生在打盹;丙小姐外出吃飯去;丁先生仍在享用他那巨型飯盒;戊小姐……178Please respect copyright.PENANAiC3HVlKbqz
178Please respect copyright.PENANANNcMVMGjco
看著同事們的百態,我突然覺得自己和他們一樣,都是很渺小的生命體,小得……有點兒……像……螞蟻。這是我最不想要看到的事,尤其是發生在我自己身上。大家營役勞碌,不也是只為求兩餐溫飽嗎?那與盲目求存的螞蟻有何分別?178Please respect copyright.PENANASS64AGuA6p
178Please respect copyright.PENANA0fm1nss5FQ
驀地,我看見一隻螞蟻在我手背上路過,卻沒意識去按扁它。我把手輕輕放在枱面上,讓它自然而然的爬走。看著它在牆角消失,我感到自己也消失了似的。178Please respect copyright.PENANAxxDFXQ0Kyd
其實,真正的我只是一隻螞蟻,不過會偶爾做白日夢,幻想自己變成人類,過著那荒唐無稽的生活。那種生活,是有目的的付出,有希望的付出。每天朝著那所謂的「希望」跑,多奢侈!無他,這就是意義。178Please respect copyright.PENANAa6c394h8R8
178Please respect copyright.PENANAtpKjiqSHf2
還是……178Please respect copyright.PENANALgujAAyxKf
178Please respect copyright.PENANAuF2HVuemAO
其實,真正的我只是一個渺小的人類。不過會偶爾做白日夢,幻想自己是一隻蟻,過著那種沒頭沒腦的生活。那種生活很乏味,只懂一味尋找食物。無他,這就是生存!178Please respect copyright.PENANAIJ0Io5AG26
公司,工作。178Please respect copyright.PENANAd2zqGmjv8V
178Please respect copyright.PENANA9O7M4GHDaB
被上司罵個狗血淋頭。178Please respect copyright.PENANA847SnvcslN
178Please respect copyright.PENANAYiIPumIlnb
大家心知犯錯的不是我,奈何人是怕事的,只好把我推上斷頭台。事後,一句道歉或安慰也欠奉。178Please respect copyright.PENANAkmuH27wn5Z
178Please respect copyright.PENANA5sVbJFataJ
很難過。我只好躲進廁格稍作自我冷靜。178Please respect copyright.PENANAkcZmiZYMk0
178Please respect copyright.PENANA0L1PnooqiK
剛巧,一隻螞蟻經過廁格。我毫不猶豫一腳踏扁它。178Please respect copyright.PENANAfcQMh61b84
178Please respect copyright.PENANA3yMBHCvnSd
快意,笑了。178Please respect copyright.PENANAvyqk7JKSaF
酒吧,喝酒。178Please respect copyright.PENANAxZ3batWTBm
178Please respect copyright.PENANAk7uH85KHFg
「你不是只怕螞蟻而已嗎?為何現在也怕酒起來?」男同事笑問。178Please respect copyright.PENANAOKKTWDHo9K
178Please respect copyright.PENANAHEW1v8JshI
「其實,我不大好喝酒。」我怯怯的道。178Please respect copyright.PENANAeniFoyLUkD
178Please respect copyright.PENANAttUH6tU1k7
「還是……你根本不會喝酒?」他哈哈大笑。178Please respect copyright.PENANAko5UBKC5US
178Please respect copyright.PENANAetMmjPNDKY
聽著他那豁然開朗開朗的笑聲,我突然變得不大抗拒,乾脆把小杯裡的酒一飲而盡。178Please respect copyright.PENANAgN689dbYPl
178Please respect copyright.PENANAwN8R0hEHpX
醉倒。178Please respect copyright.PENANAF2t6wtTCUf
178Please respect copyright.PENANAGneHdVtPW2
迷糊間,我看見男同事以螞蟻姿態爬上我的身體,不停遊走於每吋肌膚。他似乎沒停下來的意欲,想要到它的洞穴去……178Please respect copyright.PENANAV4TobuDlWw
178Please respect copyright.PENANAdzLaDDKDf7
「上天取走你的一扇門,定會留給你一扇窗。」178Please respect copyright.PENANAefvu24pzcJ
178Please respect copyright.PENANAz2qq84N3vA
今趟,上天留給我一隻螞蟻。我給其取名為「男朋友」。178Please respect copyright.PENANA23JZqjLo4X
假期,醫院。178Please respect copyright.PENANAgoE7S1qaz8
178Please respect copyright.PENANAxEZc9ROE16
媽就在這間醫院裡。她患了甚麼病,還未明確,因為報告要待下星期才會完成。178Please respect copyright.PENANA68a1xxyujU
178Please respect copyright.PENANAvD8brpNmrl
看見媽的時候,家中各人都是淚眼漣漣,很憂心。這種氣氛令健壯的人也難免感到窒息。178Please respect copyright.PENANAxPGt3Yi0zI
178Please respect copyright.PENANAnDC2oAqp0g
「我覺得……」近幾天,媽的話都變得斷斷續續:「自己……」178Please respect copyright.PENANA93zSjz8S24
178Please respect copyright.PENANApCG0KOM9gL
大家都屏息靜氣,深怕這是她的最後一句話。178Please respect copyright.PENANAdowDkO8yW5
178Please respect copyright.PENANA0njBmkBkvt
「自己是……一隻螞蟻……」她的聲音,輕如柔絲,但我知道大家都聽得很清楚。178Please respect copyright.PENANA8RTSvFGLe2
178Please respect copyright.PENANAfCTgXidcs3
死寂。178Please respect copyright.PENANAfqdAKfMezM
178Please respect copyright.PENANAs1nngh4t1v
出乎我意料,這竟是她講得最清楚的一句話,不論是肉體還是心靈上。178Please respect copyright.PENANAaoX3PqIOAh
回家,晚飯。178Please respect copyright.PENANAe7tHcIooki
178Please respect copyright.PENANA224APmf9jj
一枱六椅,異常的沉默。電視的聲浪,掩不住大家的咀嚼聲——大家口中的食物似乎比鋼鐵更硬。我裝作不以為意,繼續吃。178Please respect copyright.PENANAiiMIQqk4hj
178Please respect copyright.PENANAxI3Ycwvx9g
「很難吃。」爸突然放下筷子:「不如外出吃飯。」178Please respect copyright.PENANAhUnUKbTVbo
178Please respect copyright.PENANAgr4oQyt6bL
妹放下筷子衝進房內,甩門;姨低下頭來,但她盯著枱上菜餚的怒目卻仍清晰可見;婆呆了,眼眶紅潤;我默默望著對面牆身上一隻偶然經過的螞蟻。178Please respect copyright.PENANAhRjNKwh8Bp
178Please respect copyright.PENANACRYAZlw3gZ
我心想:世界末日來臨後,地球會否只剩下這隻螞蟻?178Please respect copyright.PENANAztkPBNbsdr
每次望著媽,心中都生起莫名的感覺。我的腦海裡浮現出一隻螞蟻的模樣,彷彿她根本就是一隻螞蟻。178Please respect copyright.PENANAwINjgAEy2Z
178Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9fWVLvKA3
一隻螞蟻在做菜煮飯、洗衣拖地、燙衫抹窗……多可笑!就是因為她是一隻螞蟻,所以我從沒有幫忙做家務的念頭,去減輕她的負擔。178Please respect copyright.PENANA2A0C5Q7JZx
178Please respect copyright.PENANAzJwhUgEZSL
久而久之,我每次一見到她,便會掉頭走。178Please respect copyright.PENANAzY7F3LBcrz
178Please respect copyright.PENANAKCb39mfQSK
但我知道,我永沒能走遠。178Please respect copyright.PENANAgjT1wUmhD2
男友家,床上。178Please respect copyright.PENANAkPB9rncfNY
178Please respect copyright.PENANAxrTq8nJVhp
前奏後,男友進入極度興奮狀態,沒注意到我正在放空自己。在他還在我身上冒汗之時,我的思緒又飛往遙遠的他方去了——産房。178Please respect copyright.PENANAfNsIpklkC2
178Please respect copyright.PENANANGzXa5Gfkj
産房內有一張床,床上有一隻非常細小的蟻后。她痛得不得了,是産婦們口中的十級痛楚。那表示,她要生産了。不消一會,整張床上都是幼蟻,恐怖非常。但她的身體卻沒停止的意識。現在幼蟻已攻陷整個産房、整間醫院、整個世界。178Please respect copyright.PENANAkTWUnQjhUX
178Please respect copyright.PENANAw3fITlROGI
我驚恐萬分之際,耳邊傳來蟻后的淒怨聲音:「他朝君體也相同!」178Please respect copyright.PENANA9q5MlylH2m
178Please respect copyright.PENANAOQbPO7WPfq
床上的我驚叫。男友以為我也感到興奮,於是更用力……178Please respect copyright.PENANA5DTtGTdIDA
舊生聚會,內地某酒家。178Please respect copyright.PENANA9QmPXc8OM0
178Please respect copyright.PENANA3CzeOAGhRa
說也奇怪,舊生聚會竟會選擇在內地舉行。聽聞是聚會發起人的主意,說會給我們驚喜。178Please respect copyright.PENANAWKIubBZoHR
178Please respect copyright.PENANAl21CUzJD48
「蟻宴?」我呆了,但逃不了。178Please respect copyright.PENANAlPHVAR7r61
178Please respect copyright.PENANAJEX4mEPhdE
「你有收看《天與地》嗎?」舊生甲吃一口紅蟻炒蛋。178Please respect copyright.PENANA6kP2cIcz0d
178Please respect copyright.PENANAiP58yMjGej
「有。人吃人那幕很震撼!」乙滿口黑蟻殘肢。178Please respect copyright.PENANAX6lX5fvZwF
178Please respect copyright.PENANAAnGX33r2vd
「結局何如?」丙一口氣喝下半碗白蟻湯。178Please respect copyright.PENANA17K0iiOjKY
178Please respect copyright.PENANASAZLkMKWRg
「沒好下場!」丁邊說邊給我一碗黃蟻糖水。178Please respect copyright.PENANALRmOsVELNH
178Please respect copyright.PENANAZhAxSKMslw
「對!沒好下場!」我在心裡重覆著,衝到洗手間嘔吐大作。178Please respect copyright.PENANAspl77DBoMJ
男友有很多恐怖的寵物:蛇、蜥蝪、蜘蛛……每次做愛時,他都會放一些寵物在床邊,以增加他的性趣。178Please respect copyright.PENANAjCs6v2UwL7
178Please respect copyright.PENANAIpD7n0fiOh
今趟,床邊竟無任何寵物的蹤影。我暗喜。完事後,我不經意的問道:「你的寵物呢?」178Please respect copyright.PENANAPZn8PoCd3i
178Please respect copyright.PENANARX9M6ViShk
「在你體內。」178Please respect copyright.PENANAowfkI45Sa0
178Please respect copyright.PENANAN9JWMpA1oD
「甚麼?」178Please respect copyright.PENANA7rCSlppt4b
178Please respect copyright.PENANAJAQUjYjzWX
「蟻。」178Please respect copyright.PENANA2yXGCCng7b
有一隻螞蟻住在我心內。178Please respect copyright.PENANAOaVNgEemcv
178Please respect copyright.PENANAOGqe8dxiZD
它平常會做甚麼?做菜煮飯、洗衣拖地、燙衫抹窗……嗯,它會做的事真的很多,但從沒理會過我的感受。它憑甚麼闖進我的心、我的生活!它最好立刻消失!178Please respect copyright.PENANAExf9AREO7v
178Please respect copyright.PENANARrADfglyvp
結果,我生命中其中一隻螞蟻真的消失了。我依稀記得它的名字是「媽」。178Please respect copyright.PENANAVw0HhsS6zp
靈堂上,我一再向來賓欠身鞠躬。178Please respect copyright.PENANAMVfWawDFnR
178Please respect copyright.PENANAL43wgQwsc8
「她真的死了嗎?」某君的聲音傳到我耳邊,但我心知那不是靈堂裡的人。178Please respect copyright.PENANATn8OJiFn6E
178Please respect copyright.PENANAtUgFeBIGla
「誰?」另一聲音反問。178Please respect copyright.PENANA0hhOOuFCfX
178Please respect copyright.PENANA3mEB4sRDQy
「二九三號表妹。」某君不耐煩的道:「她……」178Please respect copyright.PENANAdgq2PGjVtx
178Please respect copyright.PENANAWbdRNsuaJY
靜。178Please respect copyright.PENANABCMrBiudL5
178Please respect copyright.PENANAbf0iBZNjbh
我回過神來,低頭一看——我剛不經意踏扁兩隻小蟻。178Please respect copyright.PENANA58RZePEDFA
我:「我的耳朵有毛病嗎?為何會聽到螞蟻講話?」178Please respect copyright.PENANA0oXApih9gk
178Please respect copyright.PENANA2fFhZSbMi1
醫:「不。是你的壓力過大,導致有幻聽。」178Please respect copyright.PENANAL0XDBnJuSL
178Please respect copyright.PENANACt0xnDosWH
我:「我有精神病?」178Please respect copyright.PENANA6YKuPAmQAz
178Please respect copyright.PENANAbOHbnryr1C
醫:「是情緒病。」178Please respect copyright.PENANARMidVCjX9N
178Please respect copyright.PENANAlztwifd8KY
我:「怎麼辦?」178Please respect copyright.PENANALm44kT0cb3
178Please respect copyright.PENANAtYQFvDNeoJ
醫:「我會處方一些藥物,你要按時服用;另外,你也要多休息……」178Please respect copyright.PENANAmMG8R0gNrb
178Please respect copyright.PENANAFctmm4AWPR
我:「謝謝醫生。」178Please respect copyright.PENANAAt9kpE6I08
178Please respect copyright.PENANARG7J8MhJP2
醫:「不用謝。」178Please respect copyright.PENANABf8yUOEUrz
178Please respect copyright.PENANAq3jpXjFRj0
離開診所時,我回頭望一望地上的廣告牌——「馬義專科」。178Please respect copyright.PENANAhlyPF8igwA
178Please respect copyright.PENANAfUswLPOrqO
不,我走近細看,是「虫馬虫義」專科。178Please respect copyright.PENANALVEoKDjCfA
總覺得體內有東西在蠶食著我。是蟻?178Please respect copyright.PENANAY2xg34N5DX
178Please respect copyright.PENANAFFLoyKkWyD
醫生替我作身體檢查,一切正常;178Please respect copyright.PENANATwAgiktswA
178Please respect copyright.PENANAtITLiNvXrg
男友向我解釋,螞蟻之說,純粹幽默;178Please respect copyright.PENANAwpOn9uZTaT
178Please respect copyright.PENANAlrcARGxoQT
同事都勸我休息,減少工作量;178Please respect copyright.PENANAAZ40Lf4Ivj
178Please respect copyright.PENANAkvkrcdSlfD
……178Please respect copyright.PENANAECJVPs1yhK
178Please respect copyright.PENANAjnbjxRUUwO
「真的有蟻在我體內!」我尖叫,奪門而出,從天台一躍而下,肝腦塗地。178Please respect copyright.PENANArDIakCXZY7
178Please respect copyright.PENANAWj1KORdKpt
臨死前,我看見那東西了——不是蟻,是……
