考大學的那一年,我阿婆發現胃癌,割除了胃
因為恢復狀況良好,因為一開始跟我們住,後來和二伯住
這麼多年以來,我一直誤以為她會一直一直活著
癌細胞跟著胃都割除了不是嗎?
然後,我出國念書。
出國念書前,我去看她,她抱著我拉著我的手說,搞不好等不到我回來。
我還拍拍她的肩膀,說:「不會啦阿婆,阿公還沒走,妳也不能輸給她唷」
她說:「哼,我才不會輸給老頭子。」
我回國,換阿公跟我們住。
每次和她講電話,或是去看她,她都會問我男友的事
還會說,幹麼要交那麼遠的男朋友?他講話妳聽得懂嗎?還叫我好準備結婚。
有時候則會哭著說,一定沒辦法熬過我結婚的那一天。
我阿婆和阿公感情其差,兩老絕對不能住在同一個屋簷
我每次包紅包給她,我都會說:「我沒有給阿公,只有給妳唷」
然後她咧嘴笑,露出沒有牙齒的嘴,瞇著眼偷看紅包有多少,再藏在枕頭下。
小堂妹結婚沒有邀請她,她在電話裡對著我大哭。
我說:「阿婆妳不要哭啦,我還沒嫁,但結婚了我一定請妳坐主桌好不好?」
她哽咽地說,要我不要騙她,要留主桌位置給她唷!
這麼多年以來,我以為其實她只是老了虛弱了。
後來癌細胞擴張,從胃到肺,身體的領土被癌細胞佔領
本來自費用藥,但現在醫院停止化療和一切治療了
我們都明白,時間差不多到了。
前幾天我打給她,我問她好不好?
她說全身都好痛,痛到睡不著,可是印尼傭拿了我上次從香港帶給她的藥酒擦,有好一點
她問我是不是想念她,開心的呵呵笑,似乎什麼疼痛都不再困擾著老人家。
還在公司我的眼淚就忍不住一直掉,
她老樣子問我是不是還跟外國男生在一起,再老樣子問我幹麼要交那麼遠。
她說她沒辦法參加我的婚禮了,真的可能沒辦法了。
我眼淚一直掉說不出話,不敢讓她聽出我鼻酸的聲音。
她說沒看過我的男朋友,外國人都長怎麼樣?
我說這樣子年底帶男友過去給妳看好不好?
她有點害羞地說,啊阿婆不會說英文啦,我這裡破破舊舊,妳朋友會覺得無聊捏。
好後悔之前老李來台灣時,沒有帶他去新竹唷。
我怎麼可以犯下這麼大的失誤呢?
晚上回家,我寫信跟男友說,小時候我是阿婆跟保姆帶大的。
現在老人家已宛如風中殘燭,雖然不知道什麼時候他會再來台灣,
如果可以,下次他來台灣,可以陪我去看看老人家嗎?
其實我不敢奢望,老李真的可以看見我的奶奶
因為我們也決定不會做任何插管等急救動作了
一切真的很難說。
老李溫柔地安慰我,但沒說什麼特別的話。
過了一天他寫信跟我說,他已經看好十一月底及十二月初的機票了。
我們只要再喬好住宿的事,他就會過來了
他會過來探望我跟老人家的。
今天陪阿婆去醫院,她坐在輪椅上,老樣子問我工作以及男朋友
我說:他十二月會來看您唷,您要加油唷,要留到那時候給我男朋友看哦!
她沒再說話,但我看見有點緊張地玩著手指頭,沈默中,她點點頭。
好感動老李的貼心,然後希望來得及,不會太晚。
