仁善心
-
Mandy自從和老朋友們重新見麵後，整個人陷入了一種迷幻狀態，似乎她雖然在這個世界上好好地活著，但似乎有一半魂魄留在了某個遙遠的，偏僻的，古早的，隔離的，陌生的，熟悉的時空裡。
洛可嘉第一個察覺到她的迷離疑惑，似乎她總是在問，“我是誰”、“我為什麼在這裡”、“這是哪裡”、“這些人都是哪來的”、“原來的我呢？”
走丟了……
她的每一個微笑都在說，“我好睏惑”、“我錯了嗎”、“我怎麼辦”……
在孫先生拜訪後第二天，Mandy摔了Nichole心愛的大熊貓勺子，第三天她忘了去接Oscar放學，第四天她忘了燒飯，那兩天洛媽和洛老爹由熱旺陪著去費城玩兒了。
洛可嘉忍無可忍，決定跟Mandy好好談談。
“You
are
not
yourself
these
days”
said
Lock，
looking
directly
into
her
eyes
“I
dont
quiet
follow
you”
returned
Mandy，
turning
the
pages
in
front
of
her
rather
rampantly
“You
wanted
to
find
your
lost
self
as
a
teenager，
didnt
you”
Lock
was
ruthless
“Thats
so
untrue”
Mandy
would
not
look
at
her
husband
in
the
eye
“Wanna
a
talk”lock
retreated
a
little
bit
but
his
grounds
were
firmly
held
“They
havent
changed
much
since
we
last
saw
one
another”
at
last
Mandy
decided
to
spill
out
all
that
was
lingering
on
her
mind——bearing
the
weight
is
wearisome
“They
Whom
in
the
world
do
you
refer
to，
those
who
are
not
ennabled
to
love
or
acquire
a
family”Lock
demanded
“Dont
be
so
rude”
Mandy
was
finally
cheering
up
a
little
bit
Lock
laughed，“I
bet
most
of
them
would
trade
what
they
possess
for
the
life
you
are
living，
even
if
there
is
a
handicapped
man
in
the
picture”
Mandy
smiled
for
the
first
time，“Nonsense
How
dare
you”
Lock
picked
up
his
mobile，“Minerva，
how
many
photos
of
the
kids
have
we
got”
The
AI
popped
up
from
nowhere
on
the
screen，“Since
you
asked
sir，
the
family
album
has
taken
up
at
least
three
quarters
of
the
storage，
which
means
there
are
over
one
thousand
photos
totally，
and
that
seriously
lagges
the
processing
speed
of
the
mobile
Thats
why
I
suggest
deleting
half”
“Thanks，
Minerva
Thats
what
I
need
to
learn
for
the
moment”Lock
nodded
to
the
AI，
as
if
she
could
see
Actully
she
did
notice
that，
she
waved
back
happily
and
was
off
Lock
said
to
Mandy
as
sincerely
as
possible，“I
believe
what
you
have
already
owned
weighs
much
more
than
what
you
thought
had
lost”
Mandy
lamented，“How
do
you
know
this
is
the
best
for
me
I
could
have
led
another
life”l
“I
dont
think
its
the
right
attitude
for
life
It
seems
you
will
always
be
regretting
over
your
each
and
every
choice
or
decision”
There
was
an
edge
to
his
voice，
but
he
stayed
cool，“Stop
comparing
with
others
lives
and
stop
moaning
for
more
The
fisherman
and
his
wife
should
have
been
contented
with
what
they
have
received
from
the
gold
fish
and
theyd
better
not
beg
for
more
than
they
deserved”
Mandy
remarked
with
a
dangerous
tone，“Are
you
telling
me
I
dont
deserve
the
best
of
life”
Lock
sensed
something，“Dont
twist
it
You
know
what
I
meant
You
would
never
be
able
to
figure
out
what
the
best
is
when
you
were
sixteen”
Mandy
murmured
as
if
she
had
been
in
a
dream，“How
I
wish
to
be
sixteen
again，
care
free”
Lock
came
nearer
to
her，
and
hugged
her，
leaving
his
wheelchair
behind，“The
point
is，
whatever
happens
to
you，
from
now
on
to
sixty
or
ninety，
you
will
always
have
us”
Mandy
burst
into
tears，“I
have
nothing
except
you
and
the
kids
I
feel
cold
This
world
looks
at
me
with
vicious
eyes”
“You
can
always
count
on
us，”
Lock
promised，“I
give
you
my
word
Theres
no
parting
of
us
until
one
dies
Stay
positive
and
cherish
every
minute”
Mandy
leaned
against
Locks
shoulder，
totally
forgetting
he
should
not
have
stood
up
and
supported
her
weight“I
wont
fall
for
it
They
look
as
if
worried
for
me
but
I
guess
they
really
enjoyed
themselves
seeing
me
almost
crashed”
she
looked
at
Lock
and
was
suddenly
startled，“I
was
almost
taken
in
I
shouldnt
have
told
them
how
I
broke
downI
would
never
let
them
receive
the
wrong
message
as
if
my
life
were
a
joke”
“Dont
over
respond”
Lock
said，“They
are
your
friends，
and
they
showed
concerns
about
our
life
The
more
pathetic
we
look，
the
funnier
it
would
be
when
they
know
what
were
really
like”
“Yes，
some
of
them
did
try
to
ruin
my
selfesteem
and
nearly
convinced
me
to
pity
myself
How
can
one
be
so
mean”
Lock
suggested，“Ive
come
up
with
an
idea
Why
dont
we
hold
a
party”
He
hesitated，“Does
any
of
them
have
a
family”
“No，
none
of
them
do
People
dont
get
married
these
days，
I
guess
they
are
afraid
to
give
commitments”
Mandy
formed
a
smile
as
though
she
felt
sorry
for
her
friends
“So，
that
settles
everything”
Lock
smiled
back，“We
invite
a
bunch
of
kids”
“Do
we
know
other
kids
besides
those
in
Oscars
kindergarten”
Mandy
asked
“Oh，
of
course
we
do，”
announced
Lock，“There
are
plenty
of
kids，
Asian，
Latino，
and
black
in
the
childrens
hospital
This
will
be
a
fund
raising
party
for
disabled
children，
and
me
as
well”
Lock
sat
back
into
the
wheelchair
as
quickly
as
his
knees
allowed
to
carry
him，
which
amused
Mandy
like
hell
“Since
they
are
so
kind，
sure
they
dont
mind
donating
some
dollars
for
the
good
course”
Lock
questioned
“Thats
really
nice
of
you
All
of
my
friends
would
be
very
thankful
if
they
are
offered
a
chance
to
show
that
they
really
care
for
the
handicapped”
Mandy
bit
her
lips，
trying
hard
not
to
laugh
“I
suddenly
remember
I
have
one
or
two
acquaintances
on
the
press”
Lock
sneered，“They
would
die
to
see
me
on
the
move
again”
