花語：錯過
這是個接近鬼神、妖魔的時代，人類既畏懼又崇拜那種超過自己的力量。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe24UxflAFT
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd9MkEWzbR
漆黑的夜空星光格外閃耀，可惜無法將光輝射入這座荒城。狼嘯在城堡後的山上傳來，在山腳的城鎮回響。人們都瑟縮家中，害怕夜裡會被妖魔吞食、殺害。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDKjbBwGIJ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItRKtjJKvU
在鎮民間盛傳於森林深處，午夜會有吸食人類鮮血的怪物，他們以將人撕裂作樂，甚為可怖。故此晚上如同頒布了戒嚴令，沒有人會在外面走動。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPaFsPW1uc
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxcIb1PUQ6
不，不對。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AlYfSvVhg
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUZcomPhU6
原本應為無人之境的森林深處，有名少女正借用星光來照明，毫不猶豫地朝城堡跑去。她就是「怪物」？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3m9b8H3dBH
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdalmAOXMS
儘管她一身輕便的黑色衣裝，把臉亦藏起來，但仍能感受到普通人類的氣息。不過她抱著某件被布包裹的東西，當中散發出陣陣的血腥味。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsO7oYRpoM
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDYNhiduuX
越過滿是荊棘的圍牆，她如入自家的庭園，完全沒有半分迷惑。來到某角落的窗前停下，她解開面罩，直接地坐在只剩下框的窗前。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpNp6wfYTg
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLVLmi32GL
說美女是稱不上，但總算是可人兒。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEG4MUcOuuB
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01NTjcxPZD
只是容貌如何並非重點，叫人驚奇是在窗的另一側、古堡裡面，也出現一張相同的臉。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwspqvjc8j
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2VFv3EAkO
啊、不對，裡面那位的肌色更是慘白，半點血色也沒有，她身穿一條黑色的長裙，將雙腿也掩住。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsV3hZHI2PM
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpGNudmu4p
「茜，你終於來了啊……」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5gL37c5JB
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9703lXbxgn
城堡內的少女，好像撒嬌的嚷道。她靠在無玻璃的窗框上，想要伸手出來，可是又停住。而外頭被稱為茜的那位，則笑了笑將手伸入去緊握住對方。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5d87Y4uV2r
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3W6IKBT4OH
「姊姊，睡飽了？」茜輕輕地呼喚對方，也就是自己的姊姊——蕾。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZh1oQrEcl
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsVTM6twQ2
「唔、好像……是吧……我已不太記得了。」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEV6oloWdKz
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDCpmf8oh4
「姊姊……」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoBIOYfqRa
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv8Y91RuJc
茜凝視關在城堡內的蕾，如一的臉龐隨日子而慢慢改變。她們明明本來是雙生的存在，為何現在正背對背越離越遠呢？這時，她記起曾經見過的雙生花，背對背而生，至枯萎才有機會見面。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2686CwoRG
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXEYbqfH0t
不！她才不要！即使姊姊已經不再是——445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUWrTRsABg
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUog3EOoWW
總之，她不可能把姊姊丟下！445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSCg7agsXW
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNe0PxetJzw
「茜在想什麼？別不說話，我會怕啦！這裡又一點光也沒有……」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRseWUH9dsm
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jWL4HXPio
「姊姊別怕……啊！你剛起床，應該會很餓了。我帶了你最喜歡的果汁來！」茜聞得姊姊的叫嚷，就即時把不安收起，端出平常的笑容說道。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74EngwzOCZ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8id9dxCeD
只是茜明白的，蕾已經不再是人類，變成有接近永遠生命的存在。把本來抱住的那東西交給蕾，同時默默地想著。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyHYz3F8Wy
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAKfzvbsvo
（啊啊，在我老死後，姊姊要怎麼辦呢？） 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVb8twDVf0j
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMLA0foopm
當然，這麼的事茜不敢說出口。她看著自己的姊姊把那布裹之物——血漿打開，然後好像吸吮什麼美味的樣子，就覺得很可怕。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwlCHu4SfC
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySdDCm9Nl3
對。蕾現在是吸血鬼，吸食鮮血的……怪物。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyfUpY8AWb
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd2NYgLGmX
蕾已不會再長大，只要不被殺，就永遠是這個模樣。而她自己呢？會老、會死……445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd64BRGiJ6p
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJLlRmywQp
（姊姊會忘了我吧？）445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXK58cFSmzc
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUeUrSny11
「茜幹什麼這麼望著我嘛？啊！我知道了！是茜也口乾吧！」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iuwrNIxuT
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oxd4JmN1n
本來沒有血色的蕾，在飲用了大半包血漿後，臉色恢復了不少。她露出天真的笑容，用力地抓住茜的手，只是蕾嘴角的腥紅，叫茜嚇得即時縮手。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafp3t0RoDF
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoxR6tf5ov
只是茜隨即就後悔了，眼下是自己姊姊受傷的表情，那份哀傷感同身受。當初蕾就是為了救她，而成為這種罪惡之身，她就把自己困在古堡。現在她竟然……445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyDIHTrO3u
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLZ3HFRQaL
「呀、抱歉……這麼牽著手太累了！不如我直接入來，好嗎？」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUiEyaV40D
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoERMt9fZw
為了打圓場，茜故作開朗的手舞足蹈。而蕾沒跟住站起來，只是仰起頭凝望自己的妹妹，沉默不語的表情，叫人難以看透。只是這麼的狀況沒有維持多久，她就搖搖頭。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7M0GezqKbU
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5M1tapUSf
「不用了，這裡不是好地方。」剛還在對茜撒嬌的蕾，突然恢復了往日姊姊的風範，沉隱和理性。可是看在茜的眼中，既懷念又害怕。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9agy5vQd8Y
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeE5vApCWt9
（蕾記起當時的狀況嗎？她會不會恨我？）445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsHhE0z4vt
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIEMCSJZdI
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDWJSkJ5Bf
她們的父母早在戰火中離世，二人一直、一直都在一起。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjq5n2ej2yq
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV23Ix8O20z
穿過荒郊野外，她們冷時就相依而睡。茜的鞋子破了，蕾就把自己的和她交換。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjDk7cRu00
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xWWFEfKrm
二人去過無數大大小小的城鎮，因年紀輕又是女生，所以找不到人僱用。可是人總會餓，每每蕾就跑去偷麵包給茜吃，試過被發現、被打傷，可是蕾總是不說出口。直至茜發現問到，她才笑著說不痛。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1HPEUGaeT
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6thV6TWcRo
「世界上最美的是什麼呢？」每次痛苦時，快要面對死亡前，她們就會捉緊對方的手，問著對方如此的問題。想像美好的事物，令困乏的身軀添些精力，繼續走下去。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtBFKJz8I0
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBcRUd4RcF
那時，茜仍相信二人能這麼過一生。躲在蕾的背後長大，茜覺不用得到什麼，只要有姊姊在就好了。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oC9hMINRM
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4yww3IrWi
直至某天……445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydsBKhI21S
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWu4sAYGno1
她們來到現在這個城中，雖然很想找工作，令無盡的旅程中稍微休息，可是像她們這種看來和乞丐沒分別的外表，根本沒有人想僱用。如此其實也沒差，反正她們早已習慣了。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzs9aBHkDn6
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvciZvNdyTK
只要二人一起，去哪裡也沒關係！445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OIVJqtDDK
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVuB2vs1jP
沒多久，她們就被趕出了城鎮，來到了森林。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCO7cZyay32
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaz0aK2NJK8
森林的面積很大，連合了幾座山頭。路途比想像中更長更難行，她們在沒有準備、沒有食物、沒有食水之情況下，很快就面對死亡。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQqs0cXLC5
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhwwjTvyhd
野獸在身邊徘徊，等待她們力盡之時。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIdATkJMit
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZA0VgRkarJ
茜雖覺很難受，可是依然拉住蕾的手。縱然要走到人生的終點，最少還有至親在身邊……445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5hKRSl0Cl
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4YL7tW14s
半昏迷的茜，突然感到有液體流入口中。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0ThPgmxuF
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEZCo0nYgM
啊啊，是什麼也沒所謂了。她只覺得很口乾，就大口大口飲下那黏稠的液體。嘴巴更被塞入一些柔軟的肉。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Q5C8YPYjU
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiw1mas796c
那些，是什麼來呢？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhayPn6yTBa
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pMM7Skejl
當時茜什麼也不知道。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5Fr31N5nF
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xwBulFRkN
在她再次張開雙目，就發現自己躺在柔軟的床上。在床邊的櫃子上，還放了豐富的食物和水。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfkEkCWJnH
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4oG5lVXjv
極度的空腹與乾渴令茜忘起一切，未有思考原因為何，就狼吞虎嚥起來。只是當她平伏下來，才想起……姊姊到了哪？這裡又是什麼地方？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9r8XetJ0l
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETd3eOIwDu
只是剛吃飽，她就覺很累很累，沒多久又沉沉地睡著了。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOl6DHz3lC
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCl7Rqi9QP
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggb8kuAWd7
「……茜，小茜！」熟悉且溫柔的嗓音在耳畔響起，茜知道這是姊姊的聲音。為了回應對方，她就緩緩地張開雙眼。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVgUtOD0AK
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLovTmejxB
首先映入眼簾是蕾的臉龐，她的臉色雖然不太好，但看來乾乾淨淨，比平常更要漂亮。她正握住茜的手，還是暖暖的。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Pk9fJhEI6
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8DizxArKc
「姊姊……」茜擠出聲音的同時，突然看到在蕾的背後，還站著個如同貴公子的男子。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JZalCvJ86
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDTukZqrzf
他蒼白的膚色，配上一對血紅的眼睛，冷漠的神情使人不寒而慄。只是他的視線沒在茜身上停留多久，就傳回到蕾身上。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBUzFh7VVt
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeey2JsLMO
蕾和他對視，神色間霎然溫和起來。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNW4oLa09E
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7DHKiOr5c
「茜，這位是我們的救命恩人。」蕾露出甜甜的微笑，稍微向茜介紹身邊人。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47SuEFaPV1
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgnhegeOTt
不過，儘管蕾沒有說出口，但茜見到姊姊的另一隻手正牽住他。被分了一半的愛，在她而言，實在不是味兒。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFJzHzlHG7
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56XCURIQd9
這時男子把蕾抱起，長長的裙子將蕾雙腳也掩過。茜總覺得很突兀，因為她很清楚蕾討厭穿長裙，說很不方便的啊！445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5A641BjDR
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfOyo2xbEo
「茜可以先去梳洗一下，僕人們就在門口，一會她們會領你到飯廳。」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCUnesSrdn
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfEO2GZ7nG
「哦。」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4J2IgGerMq
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWM0hDCLIc1
待蕾大約地把事情交代後，她就和男子一起消失於門外。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSeIEBt6iI
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1j86Q8YDF
自此，她們的生活無憂，蕾也嫁了給那個男子。除了日夜倒轉外，好像沒什麼奇怪的地方……「好像」吧……445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4fyueVY0o
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zdVV6Mp5R
太陽西下的黃昏，才是新一天的到來。茜覺得很不習慣，可是還得接受……因為姊姊就在這裡啊！在廣大的庭院閒逛，城堡的眾人也紛紛醒來，客氣地和她打招呼。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUy0jto8NSE
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOzWhGtdvX
很幸福吧？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5czTwpN2wJ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVkBCkWeSd
不用擔心衣食，也不用到處流浪。現在生活得如同童話中的公主，過得非常富足。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoB9oWRGiCC
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAryovt4E8
只是……445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KfFeF779k
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGLR3F62rX
凝視雙手，空空如也。已經沒有人會牽著自己走，姊姊已嫁為人妻，不再是屬於她了。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKNopgmwQj
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPnQFB99lm
「晚安，茜小姐。」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuJnhEYOZw
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsl88SmMgl
突然一把男聲從身邊響起，她嚇了一跳踉蹌地退後數步。當稍微定神，便發現是和自己混熟了的園丁。真是的，這裡的人都神出鬼沒，心臟弱一點都被嚇壞啊！445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYD7n6BxFE
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwsWIpwVQT
「不用叫我小姐啦！」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5mEGhYxgV
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5evbQa0GXQ
茜沒好氣地回了他一句，接著便繼續沒精打采地踢地面邁步。然，園丁放下手上的工作，急步追上前伴在她身旁。關心地問她有否不適之類，可是她還是搖搖頭說沒事。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkFPBXzTBn
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KElsfXbW4
她，只是想姊姊陪在身邊而已。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISgXDZDqPE
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYViCMx3nC
夕陽慢慢沒入地平線，換上是柔和的月光。地面的暖氣慢慢地消失，如此更令茜回想起與姊姊渡過的每一天。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtajjpd2Fiw
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWaigpJewM
「那個，茜……有沒有看過雙生花？」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26zJ0WPM2x
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ3W1Pnap0
「雙生花？」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGpKLSuYgb
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiAJ5s4Rxf
「嗯，那是一蒂兩朵花的植物，看來就是很親密的樣子——」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoMrik0oiX
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MXJxXSQAA
本來死氣沉沉的茜，終於恢復了一點精神，回到望向園丁尋求答案。記得雙生花只出現在傳說中，蕾以前好像也有說過這朵花呢！445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7SgsA00oQ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8noigL7DPi
「那麼在哪兒啊？」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKO7ALuwetF
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BgsIoMqRF
茜打斷了園丁的話，一副如同小女孩般雀躍的模樣，叫他不禁看呆了。雖然平常都會陪她聊聊天，但就是不見她如此興奮。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hGWPn4W46
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8ZfMvcVq9
接著園丁便領著茜到某棵異常高聳的樹旁，聽說這樹由世界陷入大災難時，就守護這個國家，為消失綠意的世界重拾青綠的色彩。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWMMjiIYZb
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvtG6oM3KY
不過，一切只是傳說，現在已經無從考證。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMYapSHbHj
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRI8L7TrNB
茜其實也滿喜歡這棵樹，總覺坐在樹下就能感受到心靈的安寧，故此她總是獨個兒跑來這裡。偶爾被園丁發現，就會和他說起她與姊姊的事。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzKK6cBaZi
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MgNt1FXXR
幾乎每天到來的，她可從沒見到有什麼雙生花啊！445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHt5SbDr2pN
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkghU2PSoS8
與園丁一起走著、走著，二人就來到大樹下。很神奇地她果然見到有花朵，綻放著兩朵花，背對背而綻放的花朵。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOltJjJbG4
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEh9ZOnUQU
「聽說如果一個人見到，就能遇到一生最深刻的愛。而兩個人見到的話——」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfos9zVbbst
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWK5u6ea13
沒有等園丁說畢，茜就即時跑回城堡中。她的希望只有一個，就是能夠和蕾一起看。只有……她和她。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykUIeDdesu
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yzu4S8MOc
然而，是什麼地方出錯了呢？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOLPldNtKY
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡye7GkxaAeu
是過於愉快而忘了禮儀？或是她根本不清楚自己到底身處於什麼地方？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUEAmhhi1n
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FtuQD7wY9
未有叩門就打開姊姊和那個男人的房間，就目睹他正舔蕾從手上放出的血水，茜嚇得立即把門關上，連蕾在裡面呼叫她也不回頭。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpTSHaTQjx
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GrmxhRPpA
茜的腦袋中只想著——那個男人是吸血鬼！445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhwYD06MvO
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqsBbgbIWf
會被殺！會被殺！445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqNkcMjPvk
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIeS7alAmq
抱著被子瑟縮起來，全身顫抖不已。這時，有一隻手摸向茜的被窩，害她嚇得彈起來。隨即她就發現，原來是蕾來了，而那男人難得不在。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuoN9Atlgn
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXROzjEKM4d
是放心，還是什麼？她抱住蕾大哭起來。不知過了多久，茜才止住眼淚，抓住蕾的雙肩，告訴她那男人是吸血鬼，要蕾和她一起逃走。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoBQfea5Gs
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Fg7yFUspA
只是蕾只說：「他是好人。」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyx7Qfy5JbL
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxaVeRfHGH
為什麼？姊姊已不信自己了嗎？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2APDKEHcg
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzch6yvfXJ
之後茜見到園丁，和那男人都站在房門前，害怕的情緒即時萌起，只是她直覺不能表現出來，一定要裝作沒事。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByAbdRc6ZO
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0rbcWqOZX
男子沒有多說什麼，筆直地走近她們，再把蕾抱起來。在尾隨的園丁示意下，茜就隨著他們，一起再去看看那朵雙生花。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9r6ghjnlp
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdunokB6JWX
可惜當再次到達，本來背對背的雙生花已枯萎，卻扭轉了花枝，面對著面。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGjmprC6TS
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjjbWQZAQW
茜遠遠看著蕾，對方的眼中已沒有她。蕾的笑容和輕語，都給了那傢伙……明明是怪物！445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsl3FNc2RT3
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡib6FAtoBfa
沒法接受，不能相信，茜覺得蕾一定是被控制住，所以她決定了一件可怕的事，令她日後後悔不已的一件事。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eZmVYYUMC
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1q958TjLU
她偷了附近的地圖，在白日時偷偷溜出去，到城鎮中找人幫忙。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypXipxhSQh
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMgbJNrznG
當鎮民知道自己活在「怪物」之鄰，才開始結合力量，向教會求助。只是調動人手，可不是短時間就能成事。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRIsuTHy8u
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUUOADDXX4
茜等了又等，過了數個月才終於等到教會軍到來。由於過於擔心姊姊的安危，茜就自願帶著士兵來到森林中。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTD0OKPOLiL
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCErouLFLXt
那時是白天，大家都睡著。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSjy7yOZ4J
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPLKwa6LTT
只要殺死吸血鬼就好了。茜本著這信念前進，可是她還來不及制止，士兵就把其他人也殺光。那些照顧過她的女僕，陪她聊天的園丁……445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrnwjlH6A0
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQfNgTFq6L
一個又一個地被殺害、燒死。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHK7OKRcl9
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uxvE601Rt
茜開始害怕，就朝著蕾的睡房，也就是吸血鬼的房間跑去。只是房間沒有人，她就一面呼叫，一面到處跑。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLo2SfjDOgt
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSIxWWbDAU
「姊姊！姊姊！」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgec6lL4Oks
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57ivMxSdz9
去了哪兒啊？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqFOEmX8iP
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZNOvdFndi
最後，她找到了。蕾和那吸血鬼倒在一間可愛的房間中，滿滿的布偶，還有一張小小的床。這裡是嬰兒房？茜的心房突然揪住，她已沒勇氣繼續想下去。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4ZzpM7tar
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzy81cvo5C
茜走到蕾的身邊蹲下，那個吸血鬼已經死掉，他的頸項有著鮮明的牙印，而相對蕾的嘴巴滿是血水。她努力地將二人分開，才見到蕾微隆的肚部正在出血。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WOMtkKAgz
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqfCVD68WF
再往下看，茜再次見到蕾的雙腳。在被救後，蕾就一直穿著長裙，現在她終於明白原因何在。蕾的其中一隻腳不見了！傷口已結巴良久，所以一定不是近期做出的。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipzLH8MBGV
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7W06Z9V0Os
茜想起第一次見到他，撇開了種族，他有對自己做什麼壞事嗎？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHtoaLvQ2L
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9v0CHXTujl
沒有，他救了她們兩姊妹，更照顧她們日常生活。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmkOHFIyp7
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fpcsl0UO0
至此她才終於明白，自己做了不能原諒，也沒法去補救的事。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYdgjvAAPu
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUCWqJuk7G
接著，茜背起蕾逃出城堡。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJrsF3rFiN
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7gfeJ2sB2
待大火平息後，才回到城堡中，可惜也面目全非了。蕾不知是否受了太大打擊，幾乎什麼都忘記了。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiu8o3s73hR
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uHrEHy6q9
而在那時開始，蕾也成為了吸血鬼，只能活於黑暗中。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oHvDR9N9Y
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf52ObBMIA5
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmEwIUtvyc
「茜！你又發呆了啊！」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF0DGgi9XB
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFinwmOWQMp
「那個、我今天也帶來了禮物！」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzHDHBxyTJ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgb3Kxgv5x7
坐在城堡中的蕾嚷著，令茜的思緒再次回到當下。茜一面迅速地轉變話題，一面翻動口袋，從中取出一顆種子。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0blrlYRbV
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GLZa7310B
「這是什麼？」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9AKU5uWCu
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSKckbokbE
「曇花的種子，花朵在晚上開花，這麼你一定能夠看到。」茜想要彌補自己所犯下的罪，可是她知道這些事，都沒法子把事實去改變。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbwAA74RiX
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsys1vpfSUj
一直待到早上，茜才和蕾告別離開。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUGrFNKFSA
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLULU3Gu3L
日光照在茜的身上，她瞇起眼睛望向天空。以前和姊姊一起眺望，明明覺得日出很美麗的。只是為何現在什麼也感受不到了？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjG3JwvAMEw
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTehdUmXD4P
即使是短短的瞬間，茜也覺得很難過。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9DuytX263
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidb5P85qC3
靠有接近永遠的心情，會是怎麼樣子呢？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEYT9wxopB
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEKShQ0Hfy
想起蕾，茜只覺得很痛苦。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1Uh3KBLoZ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBX4NGAK7rL
日復日地往返，茜依然每天都帶了不少珍美的東西到來。那朵曇花日漸地成長，冒出了一個花蕾，同時蕾沉默的時間也拉長。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20augOjY25
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqpK0ai78F
不會是想起什麼吧？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqs3229fHc
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK30sJSNERE
光是想像，茜的罪惡感就倍增，連掛在臉上的微笑也變得虛偽。直至——445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwg1bNyHnP
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQ2FdM41xc
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo193sp7Da4
花，開了。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTMC7AsLim
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9boXsSQN9n
短短的瞬間綻開，也在下一秒就枯死。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaouij0sngh
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7eDR5UYoo
「姊姊，很漂亮吧？」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7Ebn5vUSs
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZBtfsrCoL
「……」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxtB4eD11n
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHsEYeRI2G
茜露出笑容，仰起頭望向蕾。然而她沒有回應，只定定地盯著那已枯萎的花朵。停頓了數分鐘，她才緩緩地把視線轉向茜。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdNpUoBP2L
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JK5fozKbK
「茜……」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmhU3DlsAm
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrLKeVKixk
「呀、是？」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpND2ZV8t0
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTxpv6Oun6
「我想和你看日出。」蕾用沉穩的語氣說道，眼神充滿著平靜。只是茜錯愕地愣住數秒，就立即用力地搖搖頭。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIDz8g2AMj
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoDQN4DYvl
蕾是吸血鬼！根本不能照到陽光啊！445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7msMUCbbZ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYEiYbTA9h
「沒事的，我遠遠地看就夠了……好嗎？」蕾主動地抓住茜的手，穿過了以城堡定下的界線。見此，茜也只好點頭答應。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIx8lzGgTc
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡos3IOqENnQ
蕾看似輕巧地朝窗框以單手一拉，將整個落地大窗的框架扯出。接著她隨手地往裡面一丟，發出了滿大的聲響。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJ6t0D2qao
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡim4J0UMtWN
少了窗框的阻隔，這一年來，茜首次接近自己的姊姊。她蹲下身捉住蕾的手……沒有半點溫度，那雙曾是多麼溫暖的手。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21E8H0e0Xh
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYclSUd28vx
那男人……不，「姊夫」一開始時，根本沒有想要將蕾變成吸血鬼。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeiR7eHWtF
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtL4eWUpkF7
（一切都是我自以為是的妄想與妒嫉。）445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBBrdv1ZJI
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhA1FwP44z
沒有愛，何生恨？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZeDSSYv4W
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3kwiUkyOR
捉緊又鬆開的兩手，茜轉個身看到這間「嬰兒房」中，放滿了她為蕾收集回來的東西。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcASOaAO7r
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJWherubt3
漂亮的東西依然漂亮，卻不是美麗。放在房間中央的籃子內，什麼、也沒有。不忍再看下去，她就把蕾揹起來，踏出這個作為牢籠的荒城。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4Baviqwxc
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jHJO7YXAP
「記得東塔的閣樓能夠看到很棒的日出，讓我帶你去吧！」茜輕輕地說道，不敢發出太大的聲音，也不敢回頭，她總覺得背上濕漉漉的。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbRI8JG0ZG
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkKYTR7yqO
經過了嬰兒的搖籃，本來環住茜的手臂，其中一隻在那鬆開。本來她想問蕾是否要停下，可是很快蕾就把手再度環上，而茜聽到一陣鈴鐺的聲音。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTXjTOlVpy
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeJT8btxoT
雖然茜沒有看到是什麼，她卻覺得是嬰兒的腳鏈。她硬著頭皮，繼續往城堡深處走。城內的屍體還在，於黑暗中沉默地長眠。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqbrfZzjRI
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpiMHoRWVl
每走一步，茜都覺得很難過，彷彿在說出自己的罪惡，滿地也是罪證。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VlTtjaPui
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pPvxj5u4V
好不容易才走到閣樓，窗戶卻被木板釘死。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbcpSE18gr
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0zH8hBrcM
茜將蕾放在窗台上，本想試試能不能將釘板拆下，可是蕾只用一掌，就把那釘死的木板打碎。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuM4NY2WdwD
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQiGtlvhl6
「姊姊，來坐去那面的角落，不然會被太陽照到……」茜想要再次背起蕾，卻被對方撥開了手。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRaAwokphF
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolOZDHw64x
「姊姊……」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8S6MvinmvJ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZ8Yy4xygA
「茜，你覺得什麼才是最美麗？」突如其來的問句，把茜的話打斷。蕾望向還是昏暗的天空，再從懷中小心翼翼地拿出一隻腳鏈。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXBi8QvqH5
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8HVl2LpV3
叮鈴……445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBorQDcCIw
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfru4VHnedy
果然蕾剛才拿的就是這個，所有事她都記起來了吧？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyptf6x6n7
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd31BbEceMU
茜佇足在原地，一句話也說不出來。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSvpvzFh3w
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbcZx9SQnW
「這個問題，『他』也問過我。」蕾仰起頭，把身體朝向窗外。是懷念心愛的那人，還是想起當時的那顆心呢？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNQ6DsyIMz
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraj69t127U
茜沒有回答，蕾也沒有追問。她仰望夜空，就覺得好像聽到心愛之人的呼喚。她不自覺地向天空微微舉起手，同時光線從地平線綻放。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsKZyXqKEG
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkU8I46t1Zd
是被光線迷惑嗎？蕾見到了，見到了如空氣般透明的他。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7x08hUUrIp
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMq9271HJS8
難以站起來的蕾，用手按住牆壁勉強撐起。茜見狀就環起蕾的腰，想把她拉回到屋內。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7HBk87se2
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7TcnnwdKg
「不要啊！姊姊！」茜悲傷的尖叫，令蕾稍微回頭。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhppA9g6fm
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWPn13Xgis
可惜太遲了。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruLtrsviU2
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTc0xgThZk
蕾對茜露出一抹溫暖的微笑後，就縱身到窗外。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dvfjF0YDG
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNp3e3VRcFq
破曉的光芒完全地綻出，被照到的蕾開始化成粉末，只是她還是沒有放棄，努力地接近那個近似幻象的他。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvGcIrxQ1x
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTnVVOv7HD
「太好了，我們終於——」蕾無法說畢的話，化作輕煙。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2mrqniuIs
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmG46MwCtsi
被剩下來的茜，張大眼睛望向天空，想起了蕾曾告訴她的雙生花——為了所愛的另一朵花，而去獻出自己的所有，不求回報。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tmo1Xip8n
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6ERoJxtMg
「另一朵花可否是……」茜喃喃地說出，然後從窗台、蕾消失的位置跳出去。
