我不敢回話，低頭吃糉子，邊吃邊從廚門隙縫瞥望媽媽。只見她的雙手於不銹鋼煲與砧板之間忙碌來回，間中搞拌煲內食物，偶爾從雪櫃拿出食材。無論怎麼移動，她總是背對著我。憑這不著跡的刻意舉措，我斷定她正在流淚。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGw43Zv7Wla
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwNIIZZH7H
我的目光不期然往下掃，落在她的左小腿——一隻人造義肢……528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlz0wrFsBp
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1bxJFnea7
「不想吃糉子嗎？」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjfSRCrj77

「喝涼茶吧——我煲的。」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYlvCkTjLr
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCi1zh1lzw
媽媽匆匆給我端來一碗涼茶，然後開啟電視，逕自坐在梳化上收看龍舟比賽，看得出神，似在重溫昔日風采。聽說她自小是運動健將，婚後繼續參與多項運動比賽，在龍舟比賽的戰績尤其彪炳。爸爸反倒是個文藝青年，不擅運動，卻總會抵著日照高溫到比賽場地為媽媽打氣……528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXqkpYQjol

冒著被罵的危險，我上前拿走電視遙控器：「我想看周星馳。」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilIk9Il9dN
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYe7w429vK
媽媽沒反對，依然安坐梳化上。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlezIjjsD0q
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZuFmfyMc6
又是《西遊記第壹佰零壹回之仙履奇緣》。我對早已滾瓜爛熟的橋段不感興趣，但為了媽媽，只得勉為其難看下去。電影接近尾聲，紫霞仙子為救至尊寶而被牛魔王刺死當刻，媽媽突然失控痛哭起來。哭著哭著，她又無故笑了。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaF3dAAvt4C
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVMfoIuUKD
我沒有安慰她，氣沖沖擸起遙控器，將頻道調回龍舟比賽那邊。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVo1G2xNi6
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mczSPYnbi
「隨你喜歡。」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCtcwXV8LU
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCVCTzwitk
沒待媽媽回話，我回睡房上網去。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEA9PvV8Dz

萬事該以自己為先，不是嗎？528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYaLW0NPPf
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4xR3t1WF8
日落西山。肚子餓得咕咕作響，我才記得自己還沒有吃完午餐。惟想及面對媽媽時的尷尬，我不禁猶豫起來。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5mOjUsYdc
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4DW1OQQPi
湊巧，媽媽敲門示意晚飯已然備好。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWIMSikxrL
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IvcPWN8Cu
「不了。我剛剛約了朋友。」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡce6Vxyo2Np
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2bP1hVvmZ
「嗯。隨便。」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRsFshkP1C
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmurR5xCBd
媽媽非但沒有如常斥責我交待不清楚，甚至輕易放行。這讓我感到意外。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlmjb9ng3M
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNA5oFFO6S
因為午餐時的不愉快事情嗎？528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbANtZfpE58
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Y6SI7QawZ
「怎麼愣住？不是要外出嗎？」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFwnHQWTEl
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2X91GKa60
「是。」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5Ir84jFQf
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ljl3EcmvX
更衣，套上波鞋，步出大門之際，我瞥見飯枱上的碟子放有兩隻不完整的糉子。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMVrxVOBgN
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHd7znQskeY
「午餐的剩菜？」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrMaEoYSDI
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLOZDlDurK
「不要浪費。」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpjOxBuT8J
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymR5U87QIp
說畢，媽媽捧著碟子走向梳化，全神貫注地看電視，不再理會我。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb43zSdksGj
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZinLNy7Bne
我漫無目的慢步大街上。嗅到餐廳傳來的食物香味，反而更無食慾，心念都在今午的事情上打圈轉……528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjozZSSvgzH
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1F3Dg94BX3
我提著兩個外賣飯盒趕回家。一個留給自己，一個遞予媽媽：「不要吃糉子。已放涼了一整個下午。」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2WgA63mxU
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsCFw4RfLW
媽媽接過飯盒，默默低頭吃飯。我也保持沉默，靜靜享用飯盒。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbBALB2mfW
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qlccYNOZy
飯後，我和媽媽齊齊坐在梳化上看電視新聞。新聞提及今午的龍舟比賽。這無疑再次挑動媽媽的神經。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4ec3RuBjV
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9hqjG1eNd
三年前的龍舟比賽結束後，爸媽在巴士站排隊候車。誰料在巴士抵站之際，媽媽突然中暑失去意識，往馬路那邊倒下。爸爸不顧一切衝前推開她。收掣不及的巴士輾過爸爸，停車一剎車輪剛好壓住媽媽的左腳……528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaS4vCn2EJM
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UMhxkvSgs
我無法回應媽媽的悲傷，正如她無法放下爸爸。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkx8rSG6tQ
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAMNdyAeVQ
怎麼辦？可以怎麼辦？不知道。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDnhdrBxhO
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReRoqNFADD
我全身突然乏力，有意無意輕倚媽媽身上。媽媽沒有迴避，抵著悶熱，任我靠依。528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrW7DLXLTuV
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gxKaOQA7a
聽嫲嫲說，媽媽曾因爸爸離世生起自殺念頭，惟念及家中尚有我這個乳臭未乾的十歲女兒而堅強活下去……528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBF8arZReUp
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpf8K4eLO7n
「媽媽，明年端午節，我不要再吃糉子。」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM751J5Dklu
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLhNnEFIoF
「為何不想吃？」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKgDtC7GYm
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8pbDKchAq
「不想紀念屈原。」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvItJBvcJHU
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWwGGpIcjH
「好的——其實我也不想紀念屈原這傢伙！」528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELE2qbyVgF
528Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5Q1lAFEr7
我和媽媽相視而笑，笑看新聞報導裡每名熱情參與端午節慶祝活動的市民。
