一个苹果
劳 山
小时侯我们在乡下生活，说起来蛮苦，蛮
累。
那时侯，我们最爱吃的是苹果。可能是苹
果太贵的缘故，父亲一直舍不得买。有一天，
父亲到台北出差，总算买了一个苹果回家。
父亲削好苹果后，切成五等份，给我们兄
妹五人每人一小片。哎！那么薄，那么少。但
是我们却不敢多讲。父亲发现我们面有难色，
欲言又止。不由深深地叹了口气……
二十多年过去了，我亦已为人母，开
始体会出父亲当时的苦衷。回想当初，一
个苹果分成五片，每个小孩一片，我们却
嫌少嫌薄，而没有考虑到爸爸、妈妈连一
小口也没有尝到！
如果，那时侯我们能要求父亲将苹果切
成七片，让爸妈也尝一口，那么就会留下
一个多么美好的甜蜜的回忆呀！
