「自小經常遇到怪人。當中有男有女，性格迥異，唯一共通點是『老』。這麼形容似乎不太準確。其實我不知道他們的真實年齡，純粹覺得看來年紀大——對於一個小孩子，四十歲、五十歲、六十歲、七十歲的人看來分別不大。」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuGf4cDT0f

長大後會跟身邊人分享遇上怪人經過。他問我為何不拒絕或不逃跑，我說感覺怪人沒有惡意。他問我如何肯定對方沒有惡意，我笑答單憑感覺。他先是一愣，後來輕嘆一聲：「物以類聚。」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ13nLecDs0
午餐時間。468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf2rDHREkA
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjB1iTHygPw
同學們問我要否一起用膳，我搖首婉拒，說有約在身。468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiS72YMM1V

獨自前往茶餐廳，在向隅一張二人枱坐下。侍應給我兩杯淡茶，我說自己佔一座位而已。468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbcs1magd3

點餐後五分鐘，熱騰騰的吉列豬扒飯到來。還沒吃上兩三口，一個不認識的大嬸坐到對面空位，同樣點了吉列豬扒飯。468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7ZgYs5mqF

數分鐘過去，她的午餐還沒到來。她瞄了瞄我的吉列豬扒飯，開始作怪。468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Tca9ohlrB
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0J0jXEr1oN
「好吃嗎？」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmOFNgFKyy
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoj6MnWHlS
「嗯。」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqw09Qqdpp5
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uFKZuP8PO
「你要多吃一些。你太瘦了！」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFIVG7eKp1
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH48uibJldO
「嗯。」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkxIFXodsc
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QE7GeEUUH
「不過下次千萬不要點『吉列』食物——你臉上已有很多暗瘡。」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlGyx8jCf7
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaquAhBeUdp
「嗯。」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IhakAlA98

「我告訴你一條清熱秘方吧！（一堆中草藥名字）在藥材店可以輕易買到。」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUnlprR4IP
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJn8kggyaw1
「嗯。」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpu7Fv01rgM
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1oVsuzcJ1
「要好好護理皮膚。說不定會隨時遇到真命天子！」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJszVqw9sj
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRYOe6bIzS
「嗯。」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6p9oOgsqc

「丈夫數年前去世以後，我一直以為自己這種年紀、這種外貌該不會再遇到甚麼好人好事，誰料上個月……」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskXOh87Ljt
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiI5aOXb4d
她突然頓住。我知道她正在等待我作出反應，例如好奇追問或是報以微笑。我選擇後者——我對她的故事不感興趣，無法假裝好奇。468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhkq6IXXk1
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmMkCHHEym
「誰料上個月在社區中心遇到他！他前天還邀請我周末一起飲茶！」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAM6RYsA7j9

同枱十五分鐘，這是我第一次給予正式回應，順道仔細打量大嬸。468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuzRF2YE5P
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7LpJqWFLf
平平無奇的中年大嬸。樣子不美不醜，身材不肥不瘦不高不矮，衣著不新潮亦不土氣。過目即忘那一類。468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuygcD0RnR
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmauMrkl7o
「對啊！我真的很高興！」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxL8kMBMzqp
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQgGeEdUtB
「嗯。」468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQi4p8VNe6E
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwipvT5pUL
我再次冷對大嬸。因為她根本不在意我是否在意——她只需一雙願意聆聽的耳朵。468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mHXQWfJrn
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1d0hLxakk
我願意借她一對耳朵，聽聽她無處可訴的快樂。468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4zW110WPG
他說我奇怪，怎麼會聽陌生人說心事。468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDXmWDfj6F
468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKo30TtZU7L
我笑，為他未嘗寂寞滋味而高興。468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLtrKwbn6F

「別客氣，怪人。」
