早上十點半,荒野夢二尚未營業,一輛老舊的汽車停在門口。那時,銀快沒有吃早餐,想
先進店裡放個東西,再去吃個火腿貝果。
正要用搖控器打開鐵捲門,一輛老舊的汽車停在門口,老先生搖下車窗,問這裡是不是書
店,我說:是的,這裡是書店,不過下午才有營業喔。還特意扯開嗓門,怕老先生聽不清
楚。老先生露出一臉失落無奈的表情,又試探性問我,那能不能讓我們進去逛一下呢,我
們從網路上看到書店的訊息就直接從林口開車過來,沒注意到上面寫的營業時間,真不好
意思。
營業時間是下午,就應該遵守下午才營業的原則。我心裡面如此 OS。可是,看到老先生
失落的表情,又有點於心不忍,而且我還沒有吃早餐呢,但我心腸又軟,好吧,就開門開
燈,讓他們逛一下吧,老先生和老太太,還帶著可愛的小孫女,走進店裡,各自逛了起來
,小女孩長得秀氣可愛,從書架上抓起幾本故事書坐在木頭沙發上安靜地看。
老先生和老太太不知交頭接耳些什麼,過了一會兒,老先生走向櫃台跟我道明來意。老先
生姓汪,從軍中退伍下來已經很久了,本來住在龜山眷村,後來才搬到林口的舊社區。老
先生很晚才結婚,膝下只有一名獨生子,原本是開計程車的,平日也熱心於義消的勤務。
很遺憾的,前年一場火災中不幸喪生,白髮人送黑髮人格外傷心。
汪老先生和老太太好不容易撫平傷痛,他們對人生還是抱持樂觀,媳婦決定一個人出去工
作維持家計,留下稚女給爺爺奶奶照顧。汪老先生則是將重心移往關懷中輟生和入獄服刑
的未成年者,還有少年觀護所的孩子們,他固定都會帶一些勵志的心靈讀物或是大眾小說
去探望那些獄中的孩子,把書本當作是禮物陪伴他們,並鼓勵他們閱讀。
就是基於這個緣故,汪老先生和老太太一大早就跑來荒野夢二找書,他們也沒什麼錢,僅
有的退休俸,一部分存起來,一部分做公益,老先生請我推薦一些書要去送給孩子們,直
接向我訂了一百本,問我能不能算便宜一點,當然沒問題我立刻去找可以給孩子們看的書
籍,要我多送幾本書也可以,我好想幫老先生募集書,送去獄中和少年觀護所。
我跟老先生說,年輕人不懂事,家庭沒有溫暖,有時候結交了壞朋友,一生就這樣誤入了
歧途,他們有些人也許不知道什麼是錯的,如果書可以指引一些方向我想絕不會願意選擇
走上歹路。我想起自己念弘道國中的時候,有次放學沒有去補習窩進捷運大坪林站的一棟
商業大樓地下室打大型電玩,結果被黑道角頭和他的小弟們堵到,要我從書包拿出學生證
給他看,幾乎像師長父兄般嚴厲斥責我,因為我長得很瘦又斯文貌,那個黑道角頭說什麼
不學好,跑來打電玩,為什麼不回家?這個年紀就應該好好念書,並且威脅我要是再讓他
遇見我出現在這裡,他肯定會狠狠揍我一頓然後送交學校的訓導處。
廢話,我嚇都嚇到腿軟,我沒想到真遇到地方黑道會是這種情況,那間遊樂場當然再也不
敢去了,也認真想過要不要好好準備考試念書。人生好幾次要誤入歧途的時候,總有奇妙
的人出現不是勸阻就是告誡,害我永遠做不成壞人,也沒辦法混進黑社會,可能是因為小
時候體弱多病又個子矮特別自卑的緣故吧,我好想混黑道起碼可以虛張聲勢嚇唬人,如今
想起來覺得幼稚又好笑。
我挑了許多書,都是書況好又便宜的勵志類讀物,也混了一些好看正面積極的大眾小說,
一落落堆在老先生身旁,讓老先生和老太太一起挑選,他們可愛的孫女仍在沙發上專注看
著手裡的故事書,就這樣半個小時多過去了,我竟然忘了饑餓,陪著他們一邊聊天一邊挑
書,破例在早上開門營業。
結帳時,我又送了些書給汪老先生,他老人家含淚握著我的手,說他時不時會想起自己的
兒子,如果他兒子也能像我一樣開一間店多好,就別去冒生命危險去火場救人了,說著說
著,我也跟著老先生一起流淚,不管怎樣,人生總要繼續走下去吧,再多的安慰話也無法
撫平傷痛,我明白我懂。老先生緊緊地握著我的手握了好久,我的手也感受到他厚實的力
道,果然是軍人啊。
他們準備離開的時候,小女孩還不想走,她問爺爺奶奶可不可以多留會兒,她還想看故事
書,老先生和老太太同聲說,我們下次再來吧,再找時間好好逛個夠,小女孩才心不甘情
不願的把故事書放回書架上,自己乖乖地先坐上車,再等老太太坐進去。
我替老先生把書裝好箱,搬到他那輛老舊的福特汽車行李箱放妥,然後揮揮手目送他們離
去,這個早上我還沒吃早餐,可是心裡面滿滿地填塞了什麼,心裡面有著說不出的滿足。
如果你手邊也有些舊的勵志書籍不管什麼都好,有些舊的不看的小說什麼都好,我想幫助
汪老先生圓夢,送書給那些獄中的受刑人,那些少年觀護所的孩子們,我希望他們都有機
會重生,走上人生的正途,書不就是最好的良伴嗎?
