「兩週一聚: 我有一部時光機」之【紅髪女孩】/ 【The Red Hair Girl】: Bi-weekly Potluck Series (submitted article under the theme " My Time Machine")


每一年,当天氣漸漸轉涼,阿健都会等待那紅髪女孩的來臨。他妻子問:「你幹什么呆呆的站在窗旁,望著咱們的後花園?」 阿健沒有立刻回答。他看着楓樹上的葉子,一片一片地隨風飄下,園裏的花草都變黃了,堆在泥土上的落葉,在下午陽光的透射下,替後花園泛上了一遍紅色。

良久,他回答說:「我是要看那松鼠兒秋收冬藏,將鄰居那棵橡樹的果實脫殻,收集帶回家裏給他的妻子,存糧在樹洞中,好渡過這個嚴冬。」那娘兒看他那一套認真的儍氣,心裏暗自好笑,也就不理会他,繼續將午膳後的刀丶义丶盤丶碟放進洗碗机裏。

阿健望着眼前人的後背影,她那玲瓏浮凸的身段,至今仍是令他砰然心動。他想:「妻呀!我知道妳孩提的夢想,就是想有一個長紅髪的女兒,但嫁了我之後,天然因子就是不容許我們有紅髪的後一代。現在我倆的孩子都長得玲俐可愛,就像是我們各一半的倒影,但每年秋天,我都盼望那紅髪女孩的來臨,把咱們的後花園油上那紅燦燦的色彩,也算是成全了妳做小孩子時的願望。」

阿健手中的綠茶,冒出一陣陣的篜氣,時光在一瞬間倒流易轉,在矇矇矓矓中,他彷彿看到那未出世的紅髪女孩,在後花園向著他微笑。

seems a very long and interesting story. perhaps you may write each chapter in this 兩周一聚.

人或多或少都有點遺憾,先天的總比人為的好過,而阿健的遺憾卻是未能成全其妻的孩提不著邊際的夢想,全是出於愛!我想其妻知道了,定會心甜 =) 

Haricot 微豆 said...

The Man Who Loves Everton: I will take your suggestions into consideration with some upcoming stories in the 兩周一聚 series. Thx !!!

Hyacinthus: There is no doubt in the story that Ken loves his wife.
