「不要走。」她緊緊擁著我，微微抬首，熱淚盈眶。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQHmtxZcIa
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveYKKsAfSB
「別這樣。」我口裡拒絕，心裡卻是萬般不捨。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNyRLfus7X
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4FaiYKkJT
「這裡不好嗎？鳥語花香，豪華大宅、美酒佳餚。還有，我和小思都在這裡！」她輕輕招手，招來小思——我們的愛女。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQjYcSBKL7
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnZF1lfTzv
年僅五歲的小思胖胖白白，兩眼水汪汪，腦後頂著兩彎稀疏的小辮子。她鼓起兩頰紅透的小腮子，模仿媽媽的動作，摟抱著我的小腿。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0ZC6pFXOU
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFY8tSQBKAw
她們的每一句話、每一個動作都正中我的軟肋，硬生生將我的理智和情感撕裂。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSKKcCpc9N
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2w5hzG8Uu
沒法子。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcGYNs2ClL
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsMCf6TGpZ
她們的外形來自我的記憶，言行源於我的心念，再加上高端科技營造出來的聲音、氣味、觸感，二人活脫脫就在我眼前、我懷中！668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xRIS6b212
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCteIPTNka
「對不起……」沒等她們再次開口，我斷然脫下頭盔，離開虛擬世界。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd53bw53jP0
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkNBlwMgpp
暗黑的狹窄環境與虛擬世界內的柔和日光形成強烈對比，我的腦袋和眼睛霎時間適應不來，暈頭轉向，整個人從床上滾掉到地面去。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDJbccXsVG
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFRXBrus3o
店員大叔數秒後硬闖入內，見我神智尚算清醒，才鬆一口氣。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7PDdIoiZW
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXL1wiP9QPw
「先生，事前我向你解釋過流程，你應該知道強行脫下頭盔的後果可大可小。輕則昏迷數天，重則永久癱瘓神經系統，變成植物人。」大叔外表粗豪，說起話來卻是婆婆媽媽的。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSqk9EGlRw
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPDSgwWp68
我硬撐起身子，背靠床架癱坐著，勉定心神，穩住呼吸節奏後，不忘向大叔道歉：「不好意思，嚇壞了你。」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69jArLPB7w
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8l13lxUBb
不知何解，大叔突然愣住。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3y0EhzHq2G
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklg9bb7dWE
「如果機器因為我的行為而損壞，我會賠償。」我是個負責任的男人，無論對人對事皆然。我為此自豪。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5X6k0LmSbs
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tpZqkqcj2
「不是這個意思……」大叔終於反應過來，上前攙扶我到休息室去。他拿來熱毛巾，敷在我的前額。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrzpzBGR1s
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0KozN2g3n
熱力令我清醒不少，但隨之而來的卻是劇烈頭痛。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSjQRVICJk
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1Ot7U9UbN
「忍耐一會吧。」大叔自顧自在我身邊吞雲吐霧：「誰叫你不依規矩！」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV43NY0iFgf
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡso4LyKeY6W
「不得不走。」我心如刀割：「我擔心自己會永遠沉溺。」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI1OJybcSU
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0oQYWXDHH
「親人離世？」大叔夾菸的兩指故態自若。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZGqPKz8Mi
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08lSxRijXq
「你看得出來？」我忍痛瞇眼打量大叔。他是個面容滄桑的大漢。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnyLlLyf4x
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlEkqE1muz
「顧客願意花大錢前來光顧我店，大都是因為抵不住親人離世的傷痛。」大叔意味深長地補上一句：「你不是唯一一個。」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9V7FUlJp1v
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0zAVM8rVg
「所以我不該感到悲傷？」我聽見話裡的話。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKL2vtcI1Ha
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKH54iT8xw
「所以你有能力捱過去——因為大家都捱過去了。」大叔輕視我的悲傷？668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgHOM2YuDK
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDcKlScpib
「我不是他們！他們亦不是我！」我有點兒憤怒。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBTc4mwA8c
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqqhIivPf1
「我知道。他們花掉大量金錢懷緬過去，直至身無分文才如夢初醒，不得不重投生活、找工作賺錢，然後漸漸忘記傷痛。只有你，有本事打斷自己的思念之情，爽快俐落地回歸生活——你剛才主動向我道歉，而不是恃著自己的悲傷鬱結鬧脾氣。」大叔遞菸予我。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfr38msi6bI
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJBCNDXyKd
我接過香菸，將它玩弄於指間。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUTJI2xLXO
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmr2ML20JC
菸紙的雪白、菸紙的粗糙質地、菸草的濃烈氣味、菸草被手指擠壓時的微弱碎裂聲響、濾嘴被叼在唇間時散發的淡淡化學味道，一切真實而空虛，沒有靈魂。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qRqnKcShX
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOpEuLRmrW
像虛擬世界。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmIpQLjK1Z
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59r4XoYmDq
「這個……」我放下香菸，掏出銀包裡所有紙鈔予大叔：「謝謝。」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9p9G2sZad3
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOasmZtJCy
大叔欣然收下，俏皮笑道：「後會無期。」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwScZlCg1c
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzt3dnfNbQO
「承你貴言。」我頭痛依然，心痛冉退。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXPJvGTqI5
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCqUQRCjgm
店外，夜色蒼茫。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz65Qv4t81z
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNL9HoeCof
我回望店面的霓虹招牌——紫白藍綠四色甚有節奏地閃爍著，耀眼奪目。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMfK4tDtog
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8A21ZuBaS4
但只消放寬眼界，就會發現它只是萬千燈火裡的其一，毫不起眼。
