「唉！」Alice望著天空上一朵很像飛機形狀的大白雲，深深嘆了一口氣。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG53TtPrr3c

「放假為什麼還在嘆氣，要好好享受假期呀。」Betty一口咬下Alice弄的蛋腿三文治。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQEMJ7CazF

秋天的天空很晴朗，沒有什麼雲朵，偶爾會有幾隻七彩的鮮艷風箏飛翔在蔚藍天空裡，配上清涼微風，是個很合適野餐的日子。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuvuheCTpb

Alice和Betty就在海旁的大草地上坐著和躺著，她們鋪了一塊藍白色橫條紋的大布塊，上面放滿著她們昨晚精心製作的食物：壽司、煎餃子、藍莓布丁等等……34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyeY3wcFqC

Alice坐起來，臉色一沉：「今天要去爺爺的八十歲壽宴，到時又要與一眾親戚見面，被拷問一堆問題，光想像已經很難受。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjEthHZunq

Betty的長髮被風吹得有點微亂：「我明白！但別人要怎樣說是他們的事情，不須把他們的話放心上，我們清楚知道自己是誰就行了。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmi6QANP4b
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbpFGZIkzc

下午4時，Alice媽媽催促著Alice，他們快到出門的時間了：「Alice快點呀！我們不能遲到，不然不知道別人會怎樣說我們，我們會被看笑話的。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1X2ysCEmGi
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaxIgB0Pnd
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7wR90dXIR
Alice聽到媽媽又一味只提「別人」，做什麼都只是猜疑他人對自己的想法，只在乎別人的一切，她心裡就蘊釀著不爽。她想為自己而活，不想活在他人眼光底下被猜疑控制。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKOQihsXE9
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnkN5Bp6qN
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQVQI4RW2z
家裡的裝潢都是由Alice媽媽一人決定的，買什麼傢俱和擺設，她都是以「別人會不會覺得我很有品味」的眼光來挑選。深藍色的沙發是因為Alice媽媽的同事說沙發要買深藍色才時尚、粉紅色的廚具是因為她的舊同學說多用粉紅色的東西能保持少女心……34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRkCICUazy

Alice急腳換上粉紅色的連身裙，再加上一件白色外套。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0K4CsHwDg
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5X61CK2TMb
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACE8nXod7B
「我好了啦，不要再催促我了。」Alice不情願地開門走出客廳。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SCQWfiDMV

34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZaL7yIwMQ
Alice媽媽反應很大：「哎呀！不知道親戚們會不會喜歡妳穿粉紅色，他們長輩比較喜歡吉利的大紅色呀。」所以她自己就穿了一身紅，儘管她沒有很愛這種喜慶紅色。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SIKIF00jM

34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AQIp6fK6I
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFieoE6GIu
「對，衣服是穿在我身上，我自己喜歡就行了。」Alice嘗試堅定自己的選擇。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKD1HhilAA0
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEB4n0aCLg
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfVDukhA10
Alice媽媽完全沒把話聽進出：「才怪。別人都會看我們，我們會被他們取笑和在背後說壞話的。」她討厭看到別人否定和厭惡她的臉容。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MD6tUpOv0

他們到了生日宴的場地，場面佈置得紅噹噹，滿是鮮紅色的氣球，台側放著一個大壽桃形狀的大蛋糕，氣氛也非常熱鬧，一眾親戚都在裡面交頭接耳地聊天，但……34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFUPFnGoiG
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbQpJOWJEL
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Z68PoSMCQ
Alice媽媽聲音有點震顫：「我……我……有看錯嗎？還是……我們去錯了地方……」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkwG9b3Pzm
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgymFhaC1O
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9NuhDSapv
Alice爸爸也差點說不出話來：「我……也不知道……這是……變裝派對嗎？」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bPwRYHVNg
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijxQFd7QQ9
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeitJA6CKw
酒樓內的親戚們，都變成了各式各樣的……怪獸。他們都還有本來樣子的一些眉目，但是Alice看到姑媽的眼睛變了三顆，頭頂長了一根天線，手腳變了鴨子的模樣，而堂兄的嘴巴變了鳥嘴，耳朵變很巨型，還有其他眾多的親戚，樣子都變得不尋常了。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KHWhzVYuJ
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfM2MCI0KzQ
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTe5cHPMOrx
姑媽一看到Alice一家進場，視線迎上，就馬上走向他們。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzi1wzArx5
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNRdAuVAeu
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8Jxlqm7eO
Alice看到姑媽——翠環三隻眼睛看她的眼神都沒有異樣，還熱情地主動擁抱了爸爸一下。Alice看到自己老爸驚慌到不行，臉色發白，身體僵硬的縮著。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFznXATwbk4
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvR7IrCE2R
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uZS1ljosy
翠環發現Alice爸爸神情不對勁，立即調侃他：「怎樣了嗎？不願意看到我嗎？」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc88z5ItCUO
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGajyi20UH2
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQwLJy63Wz
Alice幫爸爸打圓場：「沒有啦，爸爸他腸胃不舒服，肚子痛而已。」她努力維持平靜，但她感受到自己的視線還是忍不住飄向翠環姑媽的三隻眼睛上。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8HKINtcpn

Alice一家三口有共同的默契，就是盡力裝作一切正常，畢竟還逗留其中，剛到就拔腿就跑不是很有風度。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjRG4AtxMS
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMZs6Dith3
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZzqdR4ZgM
他們坐下來，先倒了一杯熱茶安定心神。Alice的媽媽維持鎮定與其中的親戚互相交代近況，表面上是關心，實際上是競爭和試探。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIf6AWaaqIX
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDKi5RVokd
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQc0hpSmo9
這位親戚好像是Alice爸爸的堂哥吧，五十多歲，染黑了的頭髮和雙手佈滿閃亮的鱗片，看得Alice覺得好刺眼。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87peHlpSL7
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4LzmQrifL
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGCIHT7Agw
鱗片親戚藏不住驕傲地炫耀自己兒子的成就，豪邁地大聲說：「我兒子啊，已經買了一層豪宅給我們一家人住，還購買了水晶紅酒杯套裝給我，真是孝順到不得了啊。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoD9Dlv2dg
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2lVCIM312
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwIrfqlm0B
Alice媽媽也是懂得和別人打交道的人，她笑嘻嘻配合：「是嗎？真厲害！那你兒子今天有來嗎？讓我們看看這位優質男呀。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTK0xTDSoG6
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFR81NLJzPK
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEhk5xKqUL
鱗片親戚哈哈大笑，像掩飾心裡的一點落寞：「哈哈，他工作很忙碌，沒時間呀。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Nv2loGeNm
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksett1edB3
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdHfxNMieG
Alice媽媽看出他們父子好像沒有很親：「喔，也是，要賺錢嘛。那他年紀多大？沒記錯應該三十出頭吧？真是年輕有為。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3guyiQXZ4K
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloczRGB6Tc
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRpS6WFTfT
鱗片親戚沉默下來：「呃……」他想不起來自己的兒子幾歲了，畢竟他有三個「老婆」，兒女也有好幾個。所以他話峰一轉，問起Alice的事情來：「那妳女兒呢？做什麼工作呀？交男朋友了嗎？」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAia5RsVOsZ
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNoMngsZml
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwcAojx4dM
Alice心裡開始難受起來，親戚必問的無聊問題又來了，而她媽媽又要準備自貶身價了。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXN58TXBPM3
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlQd7etzdQ
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpn7ZLqxQD
果然，Alice媽媽開始樂在其中自貶起來：「哎呀，我們沒你那麼好，沒買房子，女兒又說要拼夢想，不想花時間交男朋友。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNrpVlmwa9
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZuqcCFGcT
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7iTeiFFPv
鱗片親戚開始更加自信起來：「那可不行呀，女人最終還是要嫁人的啊，快交個有錢有房子的男朋友，之後結婚生子吧。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9jKzf6WMg
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mgANsct9o
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGwFzKYfqO
Alice不認同他人將他自己的價值觀硬放別人身上，氣上心頭：「每個人要的東西都不一樣，女人也可以活得很獨立，追求自己的人生目標，而不是只是依賴男人，盲目結婚。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJX4uxkAu6
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzt7agAmJJ

洗手間裡，Alice和媽媽一起在鏡子前補妝，也摸摸自己的臉頰，再三確認自己的樣子還是個「人」。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFdO7V7hIQ
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ34kwhciJV
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaeCGyf6SE
Alice媽媽整理身上和場地很襯色的紅衣服，輕描淡寫：「我說呀，妳何時才要交男朋友？我又給別人取笑女兒還沒嫁啦，妳不結婚會讓別人覺得很奇怪的呀。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rjlfrhnIZ
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡds2iMzzYRi
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBs9d9HsfA
Alice好想哭：「這麼在意別人，妳沒飯吃，別人會給飯妳吃嗎？別人把妳當飯後話題說說就扔掉了，才不會把妳放心上。我的人生是我自己的，學習為自己而活吧。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7n2qJiR1FA
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1T24bPDLOv
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3I6wRkFzNV
Alice還有一絲理性，有故意壓低聲線：「而且，現在明顯最有問題的是他們！以怪獸的怪異模樣出現都可以自在地活了。」34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUjdl3vd4a
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN54QagGN1u
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5dpC5JhFw
Alice媽媽仍然故我：「對了，那他們會因為我們還是正常的人樣，和他們不同而覺得我們奇怪嗎？還是我們也要裝奇異？」好了，她補好她的唇蜜了。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPrw2MzxZE
34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMJNDU4jH5

34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61a8ykq4aR
Alice看到爺爺白髮多了，皺紋深了，但並沒有變成怪異模樣，雖然行動不如以往有活力，不過氣色蠻好的，她在心裡莫名的感動，好像在茫茫人海中找到知音似的。34Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Dq5onUcQe
