午後開始下起了雷陣雨。87Please respect copyright.PENANA42WsnqZhnn
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAXqLMamZTNX
87Please respect copyright.PENANA3EpRv3IFNn
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAkQ1IYDC4yv
除了一位年紀約七、八歲的男孩以外。87Please respect copyright.PENANAjdvS3elUAp
87Please respect copyright.PENANA63KFV36fVX
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAcfBu0L1Zgv
87Please respect copyright.PENANAP4p8BPDus9
這已經是習以為常的場景了。87Please respect copyright.PENANA371ze1mdXJ
87Please respect copyright.PENANAXtPyimZpJK
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAtdYrOBNZox
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAVnm1bNzmjQ
87Please respect copyright.PENANAbCvRNO8Lap
不知過了多久,在他眼前傳來了動靜。87Please respect copyright.PENANAQZ4sU4T15W
87Please respect copyright.PENANAuUoC3WDveT
路的盡頭出現了小小人影。87Please respect copyright.PENANA16CdMJSDCB
「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。87Please respect copyright.PENANA6XUmlDcRzH
87Please respect copyright.PENANAx9kmuAF7oV
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAyOj7WM0olu
87Please respect copyright.PENANAfMsk9hPidR
然後,在下一個瞬間摔倒了。87Please respect copyright.PENANAsnVafcQAzp
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAcN8M2SC8ZQ
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAmareDvJFLM
87Please respect copyright.PENANApurMCBuE4R
YUKI嚎啕大哭了起來。87Please respect copyright.PENANAuCnxc5csnq
鮮明的聲音穿透了下雨聲,傳遞到男孩混沌的腦中。87Please respect copyright.PENANAHWVQsSml3z
87Please respect copyright.PENANAEEYhQO7l2L
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANANl8U16UR7u
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAaBegtXJOtf
87Please respect copyright.PENANAGuDvMt0Q6B
最後男孩還是選擇跑了過去。87Please respect copyright.PENANAjydI2EIA68
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAqCeazs0OSu
87Please respect copyright.PENANAdNd47p11U5
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAdAhWhOCAmI
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAHIDpmy8S8P
87Please respect copyright.PENANAEeTelXSIeL
――以及AKIRA因困擾而微微皺起眉頭的臉。87Please respect copyright.PENANArvAulNYtXQ
87Please respect copyright.PENANA0Ko1g5mWdD
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAoVfpDYrDaH
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAyCgAc796mY
87Please respect copyright.PENANA7fF8hCCule
但他很喜歡那個笑容,一直以來都是如此。87Please respect copyright.PENANASLvnkJwglC
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANA7dyfcZhDI5
87Please respect copyright.PENANAz7Omg49WQb
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAhUPOo1SXed
87Please respect copyright.PENANA542lbijBgn
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAuyXSZEmhUY
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAXiATv6JKZA
87Please respect copyright.PENANAEo4F9oVvoX
――好溫暖。87Please respect copyright.PENANABiQ7OdUs36
87Please respect copyright.PENANAimbZYrM7ZT
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;87Please respect copyright.PENANAm69AjLK20D
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAksBXOgdenL
87Please respect copyright.PENANAeMhPnQek4n
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAtQCmBg3Qd2
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。87Please respect copyright.PENANAIdpsGiaUQU
87Please respect copyright.PENANArr4a5HQzyq
「……YUKI,謝謝妳。」87Please respect copyright.PENANAS87Tkgxp9x
87Please respect copyright.PENANAoqB6dVTc8b
AKIRA道謝著,雖然他自身並沒有意識到自己正在露出笑容。87Please respect copyright.PENANABQVxN5Yn46
87Please respect copyright.PENANAfgIipMGIrJ
雨持續地下著。87Please respect copyright.PENANA3ajDTs8dub
傘下的世界成了那一天的回憶。87Please respect copyright.PENANAF6urwB2xq2
87Please respect copyright.PENANACBWt414xsj
87Please respect copyright.PENANAWBkFpWdO6Z
那差不多是五年前的事情。87Please respect copyright.PENANAmFU6ZdMle0
不知為何會在此時此刻想起來。87Please respect copyright.PENANA0leVyf4DyI
87Please respect copyright.PENANAffNhggT8nG
AKIRA打開了雙眼。87Please respect copyright.PENANAVjw9Ttmry7
映入眼簾是無窮無盡的黑暗。
