一杯暖水


一杯暖水

將軍澳的某座公共屋邨內,一名80後青年:阿榮正在廳中上網打機。傍晚7時,父親在廚房中煮飯,母親病臥在睡房內,久不久傳來兩聲咳嗽聲。

24年前,阿榮父親在大陸娶了老婆,婚後夫妻兩人分隔兩地。阿榮在內地出世,四歲那年,父親成功申請母親和阿榮來港定居,家人團聚。一家三口住在將軍澳公屋的一個四百尺單位。阿榮在香港接受教育。
阿榮是獨子,不想跟別人溝通,自我中心,他只愛放工後回家打機,一打機便成個人迷進去。這晚,做清潔工作的母親病倒,沒有上班,留在家中休息。做保安的父親下班後,立即回家煮飯。阿榮下班後回家打機等吃飯。

母親在睡房咳了幾聲,氣促促地叫阿榮斟杯水俾阿媽。打機正打到興起的阿榮,起初扮聽唔到,諗住詐聽唔到,母親自然會放棄、或者父親會代勞。怎料母親繼續叫喚阿榮,連煮緊飯的阿爸也聽到,走出廚房,向阿榮說:「喂!聽唔聽到你阿媽叫你斟杯水呀?!」

阿榮好唔滿意,大力地把joystick啪在枱上,好唔順氣咁去斟杯水俾阿媽。阿榮放低杯水,望都唔望母親多一眼,立即回位再打機。

父親開飯了,煲了粥給母親。母親說暫時沒有胃口,待一陣才吃,仍留在睡房內休息。飯桌上只有阿榮和父親吃飯,父親望著阿榮。
父親:「阿媽病咗,你就應該久唔久入房望吓佢,睇吓佢有咩需要?」
阿榮:「黐線!有咩好睇?我打緊機吖嘛!」
父親放低碗飯,好氣憤,
父親:「有咩好睇?你知唔知你細個讀小學嗰陣,你阿媽送你返學,你入咗學校之後,佢就喺學校度鐵閘後面睇你排隊,睇吓你有無俾人蝦,睇吓你跟同學玩,直至你上課室睇唔到你先肯走,日日如是,而家你問阿媽有咩好睇?」

阿榮面色一沉,想了一想,起身入廚房,好彩並非拿出菜刀。阿榮盛了一碗白粥,行入睡房。阿榮說:「媽,食粥啦…」

雖然阿榮不會為阿爸的幾句說話而變成廿四孝乖乖仔,但凡事也需要有一個開始,儘管只是由一碗由幾粒白米煮成的白粥開始。



二少爺說:「望吓妳。」揀來Depeche Mode的《See you》。電子舞曲就是我的心水。

See you – Depeche Mode

All I want to do is see you again
Is that too much to ask for?
I just want to see your sweet smile
Smiled the way it was before

Well I'll try not to hold you
And I'll try not to kiss you
And I won't even touch you

All I want to do is see you
Don't you know that it's true

I remember the days when we'd walk through the woods
And sit on a bench for a while
I treasure the way we used to laugh and play
And look in each others eyes

You can keep me at a distance if you don't trust my resistance
But I swear I won't touch you

All I want to do is see you
Don't you know that it's true

Well I know five years is a long time
And that times change (oh that times change)
But I think that you will find
People are basically the same (basically the same)

If the water's still flowing, we can go for a swim
And do the things we used to do
And if I'm reluctant you can pull me in
And we can relive our youth

Oh but we'll stay friendly like sister and brother
Though I think I still love you
All I want to do is see you
Don't you know that it's true?

  16. Deciding to buy online can result in a huge cost
    savings while providing you the best options for your hair care needs
    today. Before you go for them, try products at Keranique for hair care.
    Soon after this, use curl lotion all more than your hair, and make use of mousse
    and squeeze this in your hair to that your curls seem
    flawless.

  18. With electronic cigarettes, most
    people are delighted by a couple of puffs, keeping the remaining pertaining to after.

    E-cigarettes tend to be cheaper than standard tobacco.
    Determined by where you reside, a new load up
    of normal smoking may cost ranging from $5 along with $12 a load up.
