20、尾声 ...
-
虽然是一大清早的航班,但是机场却比预想中繁忙的多。
依然按照原定计划,穆暮将车子开回旧金山,而其余人飞回北京,唯一的意外,是其余人里面多了个洛朗。穆筱的运气向来不错,这一次,老天爷自然也不会辜负她,可以让洛朗与他们乘坐同一架航班飞往中国。
没有任何的耽搁或是延误,飞机顺利自洛杉矶国际机场腾空而起,似乎一点留恋都没有。三个人坐在靠窗的一排,洛朗坐在最里面,而乔奕则挨着过道。
看着穆筱怀抱着洛朗的手臂,闭上眼睛,开始幸福的回笼觉,乔奕竟然觉着分外孤独。
人都是如此,有些东西,不给你轻易尝试还好,若是尝到甜头,便欲罢不能。而失去的时候,哪怕是暂时的失去,就会感觉撕心裂肺,长久回不过神来,仿佛忘记了最初一无所有时,也并没有怎么样。
穆暮给他的信封就放在随身的小包里面,乔奕迫不及待的翻出来,捏在手里,翻来覆去的看,双手在信封上摩挲着。然后暗道一句,管他呢,随即就把穆暮嘱咐的话抛在脑后,利落的将信封拆开了。
里面空荡的很,只是掉落出来一张塑料片似的东西。
乔奕把这张塑料片捧在手里,原来是塑封好的大头贴。大头贴因为年代久远,已经有些褪色了,但因为保存的很好,还能清晰可辨的看见上面的三张笑脸。
那是十几年前的三张面孔了,全都洋溢着朝气蓬勃的气息,乔奕看着他们,特别熟悉,又已经很是陌生。
那年的自己,可可,还有那个小姑娘,绒绒。
长久以来,乔奕都不知道这个小姑娘真正的名字,可现在,她的名字再清楚不过了。而那些过往的记忆就如同潮水一般,又润湿了乔奕最深处干涩的沙地,令他的心一下子潮乎乎的。他回想着穆暮的那些言语,忽然就理解了她的笃定,心里却在感谢上天对于他的眷顾。
无数的巧合造就了缘分,而他的缘分,兜兜转转的,又绕回去了。原来,上天从来不曾放弃他的过往,只是换了个方式,在那些记忆上撒下些柔软剂,使他们不再那么坚硬,不至于在触碰到的时候,会刺伤最敏感的那些地方。甚至于,过得久了,还可以晾晒出来,抚平其中的褶皱,耐心的去回味一番,接着,昂首阔步的,迈向下一段征程。
试着去放空那些涌上来的思绪,最后,乔奕还是叹了口气,自嘲的笑了一下,暗道,真该听她的话啊,这下子,又要在飞机上失眠了。而后,他将耳机插上,自其中传来的,是钢琴摄人心魄的敲击声,接着便缓缓听到了Vienna Teng婉约而清澈的声音,他也随口跟着哼唱起来:
Strange how you know inside me, I measure the time and I stand amazed.
Strange how I know inside you, my hand is outstretched toward the damp of the haze.
And of course I forgive.
I've seen how you live, like a phoenix you rise from the ashes.
You pick up the pieces, and the ghosts in the attic they never quite leave.
And of course I forgive.
You've seen how I live, I've got darkness and fears to appease.
My voices and analogies, ambitions like ribbons worn bright on my sleeve.
Strange how we know each other.
Strange how I fit into you.
There's a distance erased with the greatest of ease.
Strange how you fit into me.
A gentle warmth filling the deepest of needs.
And with each passing day, the stories we say, draw us tighter into our addiction.
Confirm our conviction that some kind of miracle passed on our heads.
And how I am sure, like never before of my reasons for defying reason.
Embracing the seasons, we dance through the colors both followed and led.
Strange how we fit each other.
Strange how certain the journey.
Time unfolds the petals for our eyes to see.
Strange how this journey's hurting, in ways we accept as part of fate's decree.
So we just hold on fast, acknowledge the past as lessons exquisitely crafted.
Painstakingly drafted to carve us as instruments that play the music of life.
For we don't realize.
Our faith in the prize.
Unless it's been somehow elusive.
How swiftly we choose it, the sacred simplicity of you at my side.
