老太太奉上熱茶。老先生嫌棄水溫過熱,茶葉味道泛酸。521Please respect copyright.PENANARu0vMsFZbS
521Please respect copyright.PENANAwCBtM6vFji
老先生備好晚餐。老太太嫌棄菜莖軟爛,沒有草青味道。521Please respect copyright.PENANAv9NZRaIaSl
521Please respect copyright.PENANAwCBajVfIZe
他鼾聲吵耳,她說話大聲。他腳跛走路慢,她眼矇視力差。521Please respect copyright.PENANAP3LElQ6CXc
521Please respect copyright.PENANAzCtaGWSiSV
老太太嫌棄老先生,老先生嫌棄老太太。521Please respect copyright.PENANA6FzEsX9ZS9
521Please respect copyright.PENANAyHKlnJtf7I
孫兒好奇他們如何開始相愛。521Please respect copyright.PENANAQOsuumZega
521Please respect copyright.PENANADt7iPTjuwB
「指腹為婚。」老夫婦難得異口同聲。521Please respect copyright.PENANAh1R7XUUUCp
521Please respect copyright.PENANACnwNCokddO
孫兒問他們之間可有感情。521Please respect copyright.PENANAtdV8F09PKS
521Please respect copyright.PENANAX54G6iU1tC
「誰會跟這個鬼東西有感情?」老夫婦甚有默契。521Please respect copyright.PENANAfdQ4HVsByD
521Please respect copyright.PENANApDMXEBVu3A
孫兒提議他倆離婚,反正時下一輩輕易結婚、輕鬆離婚,毫不突兀。521Please respect copyright.PENANAaHOkDwoQFj
521Please respect copyright.PENANAoTDIAyeB6y
「不了。一把年紀,時日無多,無謂生事。」老夫婦齊齊搖頭,笑罵孫兒戲弄他們。521Please respect copyright.PENANA9klntaivsH
521Please respect copyright.PENANAFaKG8GH9vw
夜,同床共枕,老夫婦輾轉反側。521Please respect copyright.PENANAtQZuDTlQqH
521Please respect copyright.PENANAwvOyoPn7vW
不愛對方,卻了解對方,對方心中所思不言而喻。521Please respect copyright.PENANAvcAd87jyaY
521Please respect copyright.PENANAsyQzTGAnD0
翌日,老夫婦申請離婚,再次成為單身的梁先生和陳小姐。521Please respect copyright.PENANANBjpfg7rdj
521Please respect copyright.PENANAgcD9O595WJ
有人勸阻,有人嘲笑,有人冷眼看笑話。521Please respect copyright.PENANAPGvOmTPSKo
521Please respect copyright.PENANAEYz5O4sPgs
二人並肩走在路上,探討為何有人會勸阻他們離婚。521Please respect copyright.PENANAWwmjVQfyQv
521Please respect copyright.PENANAMY7W4SGShp
「寧教人打仔,莫教人分妻。大家好好歹歹要循例勸說幾句。」521Please respect copyright.PENANAvPnkBdpuUt
521Please respect copyright.PENANA7oizi1R4hd
「他們口裡當然說得輕鬆。又不是他們每晚忍受你的鼻鼾!」521Please respect copyright.PENANA059cXuw5x0
521Please respect copyright.PENANADGCsGd0H8M
「又不是他們每天聽你扯大嗓子講秘密!」521Please respect copyright.PENANAthzVImdZ9w
521Please respect copyright.PENANA8cvN7Bj3o5
路人側目,二人會心微笑。521Please respect copyright.PENANA9vpc8nDc7Y
陳小姐慣性奉上熱茶。521Please respect copyright.PENANAvluq7dBhfu
521Please respect copyright.PENANAq64M0jV1Rm
「謝謝。」梁先生雙手接過熱茶,一飲而盡。521Please respect copyright.PENANAxVd1JdmhZD
521Please respect copyright.PENANARa0xtaVjDn
陳小姐霎時愣住——怎麼糟老頭突然變得如此有禮貌?521Please respect copyright.PENANAmlhZNllx06
521Please respect copyright.PENANA9NXi7XsLJ0
老先生如常備好晚餐。老太太低頭吃清光,沒有半句批評。521Please respect copyright.PENANANhmyKpHqi7
521Please respect copyright.PENANAamEROJI3Jy
梁先生默默觀察——怎麼老太婆突然食量大增?521Please respect copyright.PENANAoIDAvuxYUS
521Please respect copyright.PENANAZH7nwgQMpl
夜,分房休息,輾轉反側。521Please respect copyright.PENANAc4NZ1E0f0m
521Please respect copyright.PENANAXXUpyZJBx7
離婚以後,對方似乎會變成一個更好的人。是自己一直拖累對方了嗎?521Please respect copyright.PENANAhnoUjETYuu
521Please respect copyright.PENANAppjQRjWnWz
日,梁先生往公園下棋,陳小姐去社區中心唱歌。521Please respect copyright.PENANAZLC6BSG4j7
521Please respect copyright.PENANAiXTGLz7FY7
棋友盛讚梁先生是男兒之光,毋懼世俗眼光,休棄惡妻。521Please respect copyright.PENANAtI95Q0w7JW
521Please respect copyright.PENANA4qKoTcgvbj
歌友慶幸陳小姐脫離魔爪,鼓勵她尋找真愛,享受人生。521Please respect copyright.PENANAswtE3ahrAV
521Please respect copyright.PENANAdDA2hR6Boo
夜,梁先生意氣風發,陳小姐沾沾自喜。絕佳心情令二人有說有笑,餐桌兩端盡是歡聲笑語。二人關係從未如此和諧。521Please respect copyright.PENANAf6R07pe8sd
521Please respect copyright.PENANA5DtDAjL6Ic
「早知如此,我倆不該結婚。」嘻嘻哈哈,嘻嘻哈哈。倏忽死寂。521Please respect copyright.PENANAEMThwkep4D
521Please respect copyright.PENANAQie5RNq6WK
無心戲言如刀如刃,一下子捅破心理防線,逼使二人直面真相——五十年的婚姻根本是錯誤。521Please respect copyright.PENANAMILMqdxZqL
「怎會是錯誤?沒有你們就沒有我。除非你們認為我的存在是錯誤。」兒子向來頭腦清晰,總能以一句說話終結話題。521Please respect copyright.PENANAn0mFr7ZrOw
521Please respect copyright.PENANAOFiFLg5C8s
彷彿有道理,似乎無道理。二人心裡納悶怎麼自己婚姻的意義竟在他人身上,而非自身。若果兒子是個十惡不赦的混蛋,代表二人根本不該結婚?如今兒子有為能幹,代表二人相處得更苦更不融洽亦是最為合適?521Please respect copyright.PENANA7LbLZbQK5h
521Please respect copyright.PENANAlP8fabqweq
互換一個眼神,確認彼此心思——繼續唯唯諾諾吧,千萬不要惹火兒子。521Please respect copyright.PENANAju9Mj6oBHE
521Please respect copyright.PENANANKmcRLp6jI
與兒子道別後,梁先生往公園下棋,陳小姐去社區中心唱歌。521Please respect copyright.PENANA7K1iUDURrT
521Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5JTBwT1ab
三局將罷,棋友提議到鄰近小學觀看開放日話劇表演,孫女當主角。盛情難卻,梁先生只好跟著去。521Please respect copyright.PENANADA49ONgBBZ
521Please respect copyright.PENANA2R7Qu9ioJp
青春,熱鬧,與梁先生格格不入的氛圍。不習慣,想要離開,霎時又不知可以到哪兒去。居所以外的地方充斥著虛偽的正能量。該要擊節讚賞孩子精心準備的無聊話劇,該要接受兒子似是而非的自私理論,該要賦予五十年婚姻一個動聽感人的意義……521Please respect copyright.PENANAMJnVenoHHr
521Please respect copyright.PENANA0J789Epb98
五十年,美女變阿婆,小子變阿公。小子當年沒有太多關於愛情的想法,純粹年屆適婚之齡,湊巧阿媽與不知在哪兒結識的金蘭姐妹約定要結成親家,他就這樣糊里糊塗娶了老婆,成為男人。她從此屬於他,他會好好保護她。她是自己的妻子,她是兒子的媽,但未曾想及她其實只是她。有如身體手腳,她的存在是那麼自然而必然。試問誰會特地抽時間為手腳絞盡腦汁賦予其動聽感人的意義?除非失去了手腳,才會想及當初活動自如的美好時光……521Please respect copyright.PENANAsD0KAaJYvs
521Please respect copyright.PENANApjAB4cJ3FV
話劇完結,孩子謝幕。幾句寒暄,告別棋友。521Please respect copyright.PENANAhRzagPW8oK
521Please respect copyright.PENANAqeuc8KqUIe
傍晚,天色紫藍帶黑,街燈暖白帶金。梁先生心事重重,雙手插袋,低頭看著腳尖慢拐回家。門開,看見陳小姐安坐梳化收看電視節目,梁先生頓時如夢初醒——忘記買餸煮飯!521Please respect copyright.PENANAUwOPpZikLn
521Please respect copyright.PENANA8xc3JFhdFo
陳小姐見他愣住,識趣指向電視櫃上的兩張宣傳單:「附近有新餐廳,下午茶挺划算。」521Please respect copyright.PENANAYvfJbQgGJc
521Please respect copyright.PENANApcxBSKJQd2
「你吃飽了?」梁先生知道陳小姐會如何應答,所以他必須裝傻。521Please respect copyright.PENANAWn1dZFhHFm
521Please respect copyright.PENANAmVAHlCHwKK
「飽了。」陳小姐不知道梁先生看穿她的意圖,所以她繼續裝傻。521Please respect copyright.PENANAPkXmE1b3Ob
521Please respect copyright.PENANAoCOXaj5uLC
「那就算了罷……原本打算今晚帶你吃九大簋。」521Please respect copyright.PENANAOTG0mIJ2BA
521Please respect copyright.PENANAaGSBHyLNar
「下次去吧。今晚肚子撐得鼓鼓的。」521Please respect copyright.PENANAEMavX2x31Y
521Please respect copyright.PENANA3tdxmzhHyE
梁先生翻熱昨天餘下的飯菜當晚餐,份量剛好只夠一人享用。繼續翻找,發現有幾條番薯和老薑,如獲至寶。「要吃蕃薯糖水解膩嗎?」521Please respect copyright.PENANAQ266GUIXJH
521Please respect copyright.PENANAkVLvtDNxyl
「也好。」陳小姐察覺梁先生經已看穿她的心思,唯有裝傻。521Please respect copyright.PENANASQedsMx7lJ
521Please respect copyright.PENANA6W9jU7JCoT
是世故。是責任。是習慣。521Please respect copyright.PENANAZOxELyRV1T
521Please respect copyright.PENANAZDfl5dmxw2
不是關心,不是感情。521Please respect copyright.PENANAFP2U1MLYY2
521Please respect copyright.PENANAUql6ejHhwK
二人都這麼認為。521Please respect copyright.PENANAMSs94gCB56
雖未完成離婚手續,但陳小姐回復單身一事已傳遍社區中心。她感到尷尬,畢竟離婚絕非光彩事情。521Please respect copyright.PENANAqbtsKRhVZr
521Please respect copyright.PENANApnmkTMCO6N
「你很勇敢。放棄安穩生活,勇於追求理想,不是很多『銀髮族』做得到。」歌友們大多已婚,有兒有孫,與陳小姐背景相若。521Please respect copyright.PENANAVYAfHcnDn3
521Please respect copyright.PENANA60WmFJZCv2
「其實……我不清楚自己想法,整輩子糊里糊塗。年輕時按家人指示嫁給他,五十年來一直依他意思處事做人。現在竟然因為孫兒幾句無心提問申請離婚……我真是個不知所謂的人。」陳小姐苦笑,笑大家誤會了她的動機。521Please respect copyright.PENANAFfkF3hTcve
521Please respect copyright.PENANAkpwARKmIAm
「五十年的安穩和習慣,並非三言兩語可以破壞。如果你本身沒有離婚意願,幾句說話不足以煽動你作出實際行動。」歌友甲鼓勵陳小姐,希望她不要自我懷疑:「你並不糊塗,十分清楚自身想法。」521Please respect copyright.PENANA4idaRFbPi3
521Please respect copyright.PENANACAKEiRp6tL
「可能你不察覺日積月累了大量的小小不滿——例如嫌棄說話、廁所板開合問題、清理渠口蓋掩髮絲、廚藝差,諸如此類的——沒有宣洩出來。你孫兒的說話只是導火線,真正的炸彈早已由你丈夫親手埋下。」歌友乙感同身受,以陳小姐名義道出自身實況。521Please respect copyright.PENANAcdyg53X0M4
521Please respect copyright.PENANAYFJRHT5aX6
見大家表情感慨非常,陳小姐馬上明白大家都暗暗不滿自身的婚姻,把情感投射在她身上,而非真心認同她的決定——大家的話不能作為參考根據。所以問題回歸原點……521Please respect copyright.PENANAPpz3ylzg5n
521Please respect copyright.PENANA8d4nx2K7UN
散席,回家,未見梁先生身影,估是尚在公園忘形下棋或是正在格價買餸。陳小姐環視全屋,心裡倏忽生起異樣的陌生感,愣在大門後不知所措。傢俱仍在原本位置,不知怎地竟有一絲說不出的違和,似乎它們都不該在這地方。還有,窗外風景明顯變了樣。路邊大樹何時如此靠近窗戶?窗櫺款式怎麼花俏得如此老土?地磚……我們是用這種顏色的地磚嗎?521Please respect copyright.PENANA2VmM5Pz7xo
521Please respect copyright.PENANAy7zumfoKAB
啪——身後大門突然被推開,狠狠撞到陳小姐的背。521Please respect copyright.PENANAHVFQP5TUgp
521Please respect copyright.PENANAsD72sK9Ymy
「哇!你為何站在這位置?想被撞死或是想扮鬼嚇死我?」梁先生受驚破口大罵,雙手卻誠實地放下沉甸甸的菜籃,開燈,攙扶陳小姐至梳化休息:「回家不亮燈又不作聲,發甚麼神經?」521Please respect copyright.PENANAjve6EM269U
521Please respect copyright.PENANAfGHZpxF449
陳小姐情緒尚未平伏,默不作聲,傻痴痴望著梁先生。521Please respect copyright.PENANAhWd5YWofY9
521Please respect copyright.PENANATE5MNFcOPL
「沒事吧?眼睛又不舒服?你流眼水!」梁先生與陳小姐相伴多年,自然而然將目前狀況聯想至她的眼疾:「是否今早忘記滴眼藥水?你六十幾、快將七十歲,怎麼還未懂得照顧自己……」521Please respect copyright.PENANAC0j7PWOIyT
521Please respect copyright.PENANAKXshyqX5AF
見梁先生嘮嘮叨叨,陳小姐終於確認自己身處何方。並非兒時居所,亦非初嫁時的新居,這是陪她度過幾十年光陰的家。回過神來,隨意交出一句說話結束事情:「由明亮地方走入未亮燈的家,眼睛霎時間適應不來……」521Please respect copyright.PENANA7iKliG4MiP
521Please respect copyright.PENANAH9dShlep68
情理之外、意料之內,梁先生翌日跑到屋邨管理處,投訴走廊燈光太亮。他的蠻不講理有時候是窩心至極的表現——如果陳小姐有心情去留意的話。521Please respect copyright.PENANAbvOeCCATGz
離婚聆訊,司法常務官再三細閱文件內容,然後望望兩位申請人,眉頭輕皺:「決定?」521Please respect copyright.PENANATvToTUeRU3
521Please respect copyright.PENANAHBQv4w6imd
二人點頭。521Please respect copyright.PENANAUyJb8HQdRO
521Please respect copyright.PENANAMSh4CSThuU
「請開口回答。」這位司法常務官長年處理離婚案件,面對過數之不盡的離婚夫婦,不難看出梁先生和陳小姐的猶豫糾結。521Please respect copyright.PENANAwdBpKW1HH1
521Please respect copyright.PENANAnzRtV9Oz6B
難以啟齒。畢竟並非有甚麼深仇大恨,全是瑣碎小事情,不想講得太決絕,令對方難過。521Please respect copyright.PENANAKIsZTGVnRr
521Please respect copyright.PENANAmIu1xAiVd8
「決定?」司法常務官再問一次。見兩人依然優柔寡斷,不禁慨嘆:「清官難審家庭事。你們的兒子早已長大成人,對財產分配沒有特別要求,甚至不敢堅決表達離婚意願。到底你們為何要申請離婚?」521Please respect copyright.PENANAgPNtvE6L1p
521Please respect copyright.PENANAMk7Z5EPpod
其實……其實沒法交出像樣的答案,因為所有事情過於細碎。細碎的不滿、細碎的幸福、細碎的感情……所有細碎混集一起,結果只能看見事情細碎的片面。看見很多,細碎很多,紛擾很多。太多太多,唯有選擇。選擇記住不滿,選擇忽略幸福,選擇輕視情感……521Please respect copyright.PENANAT7Ek0KRLye
521Please respect copyright.PENANADjFEfifB9E
被客氣地暗暗臭罵一頓後,二人跟著兒子離開聆訊地點。二人問兒子意見,兒子模仿司法常務官口吻用字笑罵他們不知所謂,然後以認真口吻唬嚇他們絕對可以成功離婚。521Please respect copyright.PENANAHkH9M0vzdP
521Please respect copyright.PENANAg7reUGUfs8
兩口子四目交投,不約而同心想離婚後再結婚會有何後果。521Please respect copyright.PENANACAC09VzLDo
題解:521Please respect copyright.PENANAgV0PsxxSjQ
「昏」是日落後天黑的一段時間,引伸為闇昧、昏庸。所以題目《昏姻》語帶雙關,指「姻緣的晚期」、「不好的姻緣」,暗嘲兩位主角糊塗而愚蠢。
