午後開始下起了雷陣雨。72Please respect copyright.PENANAxOSPP3yYZy
猛烈且毫不留情的雨勢如洪水來襲般傾倒在小鎮的街道上,瞬間眼前就被白茫茫的水霧掩蓋,看不見路的盡頭。72Please respect copyright.PENANABmzHZXfe0s
72Please respect copyright.PENANAdivjQnPRzp
行人們紛紛躲避到可以暫時休息的屋子裏,等待著下一個雨停的時段,所以街道上幾乎一個人影都沒有。72Please respect copyright.PENANALK6AemgZZP
除了一位年紀約七、八歲的男孩以外。72Please respect copyright.PENANAInBtYlEaK3
72Please respect copyright.PENANA0XBPKXf2ro
他孤伶伶地低垂著頭,任由冰冷的雨水洗刷身體。雖然在不到三十公分就有一處屋簷處可提供遮雨,但他就像被罰站一樣在毫無遮蔽物的原地停留著,完全沒打算移動。72Please respect copyright.PENANA1vYqsCpFf0
72Please respect copyright.PENANAnv95TJX6np
這已經是習以為常的場景了。72Please respect copyright.PENANAUE80RB6Jad
72Please respect copyright.PENANAlwTWByaCCm
銀灰色的短髮濕漉漉地緊貼在脖子上,男孩瘦弱的身體穿著一件寬大不合身的白色道場服,上頭隨處可見斑黑黃污漬和暗紅色痕跡,整個看起來破爛不堪。72Please respect copyright.PENANAvFIc8dIi8Q
男孩的面容憔悴,右臉頰浮腫有著紫紅色血塊凝結,但他卻沒有表現出任何痛苦或難過的表情,只是兩眼無神地望著前方小路的地板,數著水滴滴落下的節拍。72Please respect copyright.PENANAXeeg2VtMc4
72Please respect copyright.PENANADNJzRC8hma
不知過了多久,在他眼前傳來了動靜。72Please respect copyright.PENANAnmmBTHPkwN
72Please respect copyright.PENANAfAPY4MDTSd
路的盡頭出現了小小人影。72Please respect copyright.PENANAtU2KpAnwIA
「啪搭、啪搭」地小碎步往自己的方向前進,鮮黃色的雨傘在白霧之中忽上忽下,漸漸地那個孩子的模樣變得清晰,是記憶中熟悉的模樣。72Please respect copyright.PENANAukuqA3JvY6
72Please respect copyright.PENANAmXAiTxb1Py
蓬鬆的深褐色短髮隨著跑步的節奏跳動著,圓滾滾咖啡色瞳孔在模糊的雨霧中閃閃發亮,通紅的臉上掛著隱約可以看見虎牙的笑容,在看見男孩的時候又咧開了一些。
「――!」
女孩向他大幅度地揮了揮手,喊著自己的名字,蹦蹦跳跳的加快了速度。72Please respect copyright.PENANAjfXX8kRzuy
72Please respect copyright.PENANAEekKCDSGTU
然後,在下一個瞬間摔倒了。72Please respect copyright.PENANANoTt14had5
鮮黃色的雨傘飛出了女孩的手上,如藍天中飛舞的蒲公英般在半空轉了兩三圈,最後無力地降落在濕潤的地上。72Please respect copyright.PENANAJXWVYOlPBU
因為事發突然,女孩呆楞著趴在地上,沒能意識過來自己跌到的事實。冰涼的雨水瞬間傾倒在濕透的身體上,之後傳達到腦部才是如針刺般的劇烈疼痛感。72Please respect copyright.PENANAiG7LT0MqeJ
72Please respect copyright.PENANAJZOQBB2V7c
YUKI嚎啕大哭了起來。72Please respect copyright.PENANAZMpvCr5BjA
鮮明的聲音穿透了下雨聲,傳遞到男孩混沌的腦中。72Please respect copyright.PENANAOwqvmZR2Im
72Please respect copyright.PENANACsyTYgCrcs
他恍惚地看著眼前的一切,直到聽到哭泣的聲音才下意識地向YUKI的方向前進了一步,但又停了下來。72Please respect copyright.PENANADfnoDHitWf
腦海竄過了在不久之前不好的回憶,伴隨著那個男人的可憎叫罵聲,在自己的思緒中嗡嗡作響。72Please respect copyright.PENANAtdP03FVqrq
72Please respect copyright.PENANApzSRyKGJyN
最後男孩還是選擇跑了過去。72Please respect copyright.PENANAdfhMpPMUir
儘管臉頰上隱隱作痛的傷口不斷地提醒著自己應遵守的紀律,但他覺得自己不能放著眼前的場景不管。72Please respect copyright.PENANAFx0QViemZx
72Please respect copyright.PENANAQekz2Mr4p5
奔跑過數公尺的距離來到了YUKI的面前,男孩猶豫片刻後,向她伸出了手。72Please respect copyright.PENANAN6rWzIXWcC
在淚水與雨水的洗刷下,模糊的視野只看見了手的大概形狀,YUKI努力地眨了眨眼,才看清楚那隻瘦弱、佈滿舊傷口和厚繭的小手。72Please respect copyright.PENANAo95uShtssB
72Please respect copyright.PENANAoBjSsKhdwc
――以及AKIRA因困擾而微微皺起眉頭的臉。72Please respect copyright.PENANAl05NOF7704
72Please respect copyright.PENANAmlYlbK2RWa
瞬間,上一秒還在哭泣的臉龐,馬上破涕為笑地爆出一個開心的笑容。72Please respect copyright.PENANA8UsNpXnCrw
AKIRA發愣地看著情緒轉變劇烈的那個女孩,內心不知道該說些什麼。72Please respect copyright.PENANAS47cYsn7yG
72Please respect copyright.PENANAyAtDCDxfW9
但他很喜歡那個笑容,一直以來都是如此。72Please respect copyright.PENANAL0pbfMdpjF
像是朝著夕陽綻放的橘黃色向日葵,總是可以深深地吸引住自己的目光,讓他無法別開眼神。72Please respect copyright.PENANAQGAi0D0eKd
72Please respect copyright.PENANAfmMh9pjQQs
YUKI一手撿起身旁的雨傘,一手握住眼前的AKIRA的手並站了起來。她的膝蓋因摩擦到砂石地面而沾染了泥沙,以及流溢出的鮮血,形成了一個顯眼的小傷口。72Please respect copyright.PENANA9jwxLOWj28
72Please respect copyright.PENANAxSaZBXK3K4
用手拍掉了附近的細沙後,AKIRA低著頭檢查小腿附近還有沒有其他的擦傷。72Please respect copyright.PENANAV6aW9MP0PO
然後,他又抬起頭並伸出手臂,輕輕地擦掉了那孩子掛在臉上的淚水,就像在觸碰一朵脆弱易凋零的花朵般溫柔。72Please respect copyright.PENANAezGquP83u3
72Please respect copyright.PENANAjC6Ssv7Gjd
――好溫暖。72Please respect copyright.PENANAKLIZhn2z8I
72Please respect copyright.PENANAShsrOY98y3
AKIRA此時才發現頭頂上籠罩著鮮黃色的雨傘,遮擋住了奪取體溫的寒冷雨水;72Please respect copyright.PENANAcB9e0pyGeF
而這孩子的高體溫也在溫暖著自己的毫無血色的手,周遭一切似乎正在甦醒過來。72Please respect copyright.PENANA7VAICzXUbP
72Please respect copyright.PENANAd80nhWNGWj
他站起身,年長兩歲的自己跟年幼的青梅竹馬比起來高了一個頭,俯視下去正好可以看見她的臉龐。72Please respect copyright.PENANAp71TAI5Tnc
從有記憶以來一直都是這樣的距離,大概以後也不會有什麼改變。72Please respect copyright.PENANAM9fxWeyuvI
72Please respect copyright.PENANAYLXCZGIHt6
「……YUKI,謝謝妳。」72Please respect copyright.PENANAM6r0o8qzfI
72Please respect copyright.PENANASdWi2h6UUe
AKIRA道謝著,雖然他自身並沒有意識到自己正在露出笑容。72Please respect copyright.PENANAwqNTQY89RB
72Please respect copyright.PENANA0pUjYZm6C0
雨持續地下著。72Please respect copyright.PENANAhTR0TqEVt7
傘下的世界成了那一天的回憶。72Please respect copyright.PENANAFHW6gHRPrm
72Please respect copyright.PENANAAbCp2yLUuB
72Please respect copyright.PENANASWJljT2rQW
那差不多是五年前的事情。72Please respect copyright.PENANA3JKKydAg65
不知為何會在此時此刻想起來。72Please respect copyright.PENANAxdtEqOmzGM
72Please respect copyright.PENANAydkAD8GveX
AKIRA打開了雙眼。72Please respect copyright.PENANABlGiTL5YoU
映入眼簾是無窮無盡的黑暗。
