「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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqz88aflng

「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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hnIpwTFRh

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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CiwkI2enT

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……22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjBUQWCTaZ

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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAs0bmQ8YJi

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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliqltNcCLV

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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOerirWLSm
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGLgY0SGTK
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gGFXA5KjY
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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQNGi57eRZ
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALGm1EmTlf
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpwk5uVaee
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……22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9G5Wmn2tBT

Alice急腳換上粉紅色的連身裙，再加上一件白色外套。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIX6NTsbWWN
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoZuxybltL
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuE03lzHx4v
「我好了啦，不要再催促我了。」Alice不情願地開門走出客廳。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNt3BnwMjs
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8RzDo7OKB
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAefAiB9Z8e
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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv51Y9ClFpF
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YOZxroFg8
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQnwqF7AFf
Alice爸爸幫口：「Alice自己喜歡粉紅色就行了。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOblQ9utv9S
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhRZgpqE4H
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlxaRYPZyu
「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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenFAdP4Hld
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwvrvLQWqV
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdgbn89c7I
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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm5nWjd00z
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeA5K1BwRyW

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……22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUhu2RiM69
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YDm5Qcroa
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQbhnrAot3
Alice媽媽聲音有點震顫：「我……我……有看錯嗎？還是……我們去錯了地方……」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0YGu0yMME
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVDzhJquaP
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5GQm3hXrL
Alice爸爸也差點說不出話來：「我……也不知道……這是……變裝派對嗎？」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RLYyfY72L
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYGpyX8Zsj
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6ovWKyeH0
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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZISKGq0Fx3
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqj26JA4RAw
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpDzUzktN1
姑媽一看到Alice一家進場，視線迎上，就馬上走向他們。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNJmxqNy5k
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvEECneHfP
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡereR09qkDe
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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm716tzwg7B
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJ7gnKECsU
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGlGxmQYGt
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？」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3Ada4MGlU
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWDqc0bRCD
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4j6LRsBP9
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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42dFfnJ234

22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQiVX3MqFC
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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJENpUa8Xe
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUBeuot5my
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYpCTnFGNl
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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjn5XauSlDQ
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQKb5fAzkW
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EUxgOUWuI
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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhO6mLgRECu
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdlfpqvZZQ
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7uRFLFAIa
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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZYomKFepi
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUw3aVuFUu
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQC0HhLnSt
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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybtwAQhf4G
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNA4RLZlqU
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWLsWtKIQC
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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboNFVnwcDA
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcouhffhAF
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqBWTypDgg
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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsF37ArDM5
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFhC9yRpPs
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41TGYNfoqv
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？」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGXjK5TbIG
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXmyAw7sVW
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0YOGWBVk2
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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYIoisucDd
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUaesKKzcG
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7GuWmrxiL
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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKKi92KDeo
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7j1lLL6lY
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMS6sn2POA8
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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaTjs2mdFA
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwIVx3Hja3
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXVoqiqg60
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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGbiZDkmR0
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtwFp4J6oU

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」。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvAb2CUKYd
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZw7KK9E2os
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxd3oijGIxQ
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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYflyrnam78
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7FIRpSwsg
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZt2oMm5uU
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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtag1BEbXL
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxT0gKp8hS
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogSSjgEGl9
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。」22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgCKxDmbPk
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaSQb8BAgS
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF9lxtBb9W
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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKcXvJBRVr
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSC4INdjot
22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbR8lcGOOSY

爺爺蹣跚地走向台上，同時現場演奏著歡樂的生日快樂歌，大家也配合拍手和唱著。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8AT6G3ewz

22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZXnrBhK8p
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。22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvynoE3sTA
