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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvAObfelMi
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlOvQlrPjh
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCDWjZrBFu
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXrWM7ZhQj
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGbri76i5n
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuKTFX40ES
不，不對。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPub6uUPyDE
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiVOyA4SFq
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」？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpn4Sf3OJEi
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSq2WYgyBw
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEbXECk87I
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qkHnl85E7
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgqxm5uT8a
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7rY46r913
說美女是稱不上，但總算是可人兒。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdedoMuJhG
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUrG7Ysmuy
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyCrSpjnan
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZoftkX7Tl
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuQzjnfQXX
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrHlTc4wmT
「茜，你終於來了啊……」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqBbKN6Khx
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe96umLlO0o
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS69ajQr4dx
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVPKzaWGOQ
「姊姊，睡飽了？」茜輕輕地呼喚對方，也就是自己的姊姊——蕾。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjZt1UNwpx
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPLZJDDI7A
「唔、好像……是吧……我已不太記得了。」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPp8nOIaUs
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uqe0B0NDE
「姊姊……」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxTbqjX7hY
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uvPBBWgwl
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI34DM8xxDG
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RiioGHK5t
不！她才不要！即使姊姊已經不再是——521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDSnh7ZuOm
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNSsbhoQFJ
總之，她不可能把姊姊丟下！521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilhXvzog6t
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9P3Zh1tjZ
「茜在想什麼？別不說話，我會怕啦！這裡又一點光也沒有……」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpHo895CwW
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGff0Py9C3
「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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vPFp68Z4z
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7UFKTPNi1
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XSqChlXkF
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9qmEglDpk
（啊啊，在我老死後，姊姊要怎麼辦呢？） 521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoyntX7URB
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLoGJoHR0t
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfQazwT4tJ
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Itd69l8Ni
對。蕾現在是吸血鬼，吸食鮮血的……怪物。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKedl2Fw5GB
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQW33iXsDOS
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……521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkExmct7cjg
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQIFETGZ4f
（姊姊會忘了我吧？）521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNfGcUctnG
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dcXAsYSvb
「茜幹什麼這麼望著我嘛？啊！我知道了！是茜也口乾吧！」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdD5sWMTwXe
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxD06WFW7Y
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4y073MJ6EZ
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkooJPjcmwA
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……521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGqmaehzA7
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfhnjneXiz
「呀、抱歉……這麼牽著手太累了！不如我直接入來，好嗎？」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjKAGHyPJh
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjrHumi3vM
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKO8BySsI8
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtqlcNTDOO
「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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWO7oXCtLG
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93dlhFgRNd
（蕾記起當時的狀況嗎？她會不會恨我？）521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xD98pCqYU
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xFwtjwdxe
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8rXv060HM
她們的父母早在戰火中離世，二人一直、一直都在一起。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhE7ENXuLJ
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtxkrTdRu8
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rdjtmKSZT
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgBEqXhDei
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uLYZSepTl
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtUaCcXs9B
「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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRu7APaRmPD
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡco9at6GtBT
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmub3KFjQP
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpVO0MhwwV
直至某天……521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LqNo7JuyL
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX25N34C8ZK
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7EHWiSjDz
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSuSBLvhgw
只要二人一起，去哪裡也沒關係！521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8m04G5m5i7
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqQo2Meo3u
沒多久，她們就被趕出了城鎮，來到了森林。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90U0ZbjqVe
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSppT2twcQ
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5AegKz0TQ
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwpU5GrKkp
野獸在身邊徘徊，等待她們力盡之時。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkUruZCblb
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMr8CjoaLfj
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……521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5PiS3XQfL
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdP7bAJeAl
半昏迷的茜，突然感到有液體流入口中。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPUv6uBBkF
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1IJVuGHXN
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfa4EmgTMz
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMH6Bggclw
那些，是什麼來呢？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuw1QgIwg08
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFhP3QkMZL
當時茜什麼也不知道。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOmAcO05GX
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFInON61hf
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcO9OrGIxN2
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjdIYiqIIA
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？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWct8HKBqYc
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpkWo5QSF3
只是剛吃飽，她就覺很累很累，沒多久又沉沉地睡著了。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsA0Gnwl7b
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHQFdCglQA
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7K35T40LT
「……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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWiL6UVahv
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnPEqtlSy1
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyacIWyPxtM
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1cvedaxCd
「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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaYknEVSh0
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYqy9w5cG3
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfu75YVZpLp
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9uY5w2eqq
蕾和他對視，神色間霎然溫和起來。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TMvUrQVIe
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRPu9jDQ49
「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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQKE6LmS9v
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJe1FT9pAv
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroOETYHa7L
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6njqF8MuVQ
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！521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAJwuxSbu6
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOQTlo2gvV
「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。」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxr1iE60VdT
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUg550yoPjK
「哦。」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4Hr3MY8IZ
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjcY7A0A0r
待蕾大約地把事情交代後，她就和男子一起消失於門外。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOsx4CnNCX
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGP0E7w6Adw
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……521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw379boBAM4
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKp7vafVbud
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0m8ESyNt1
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gW1z9kmLb
很幸福吧？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBhGseu0IY
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEiDfNCMUf
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Kp3wrAqMn
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1PPOqEd5l
只是……521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPZiIJ9Wpz
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZNSvO7L9a
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmn2jRicG0Z
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOnoxosIgd
「晚安，茜小姐。」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpl7lC0JxWM
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBK8IK9gWnZ
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！521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskdHVzx2JF
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPtcNLX0Yd
「不用叫我小姐啦！」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20zbhCb38J
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhV9YINmnD
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgVHda5Dxr
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Qd1pzQxng
她，只是想姊姊陪在身邊而已。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BCmsKCHWA
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EJcTt4Bs4
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ514bZvMEsw
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpslHoS17bH
「那個，茜……有沒有看過雙生花？」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMQyZSzttQ
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Cz77XilSU
「雙生花？」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1sZ2XpOTX
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjvILVEYSV
「嗯，那是一蒂兩朵花的植物，看來就是很親密的樣子——」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjB63KCeEz7
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvt7ZfjkpN
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！521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumXebdIusO
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwuFhw4rpe
「那麼在哪兒啊？」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPPmTQtN2d
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgboQ9CN4dV
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GePRgQHif
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKUmiqZSht
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZC6vmumtoX
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5AxMKhkJ4
不過，一切只是傳說，現在已經無從考證。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBvZ02mJAC
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMtjHGvAN9
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiD0QGtcHZ
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkTa0Wdjh4
幾乎每天到來的，她可從沒見到有什麼雙生花啊！521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QDE8tTR0a
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSMmsR99N3
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJ9p7D9p3O
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAr6dFLtdZ
「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——」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVPJyJs0DT
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8p0pjT2pcW
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6cLJmawXa
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNhOw1F0VQ
然而，是什麼地方出錯了呢？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYECTLwWtGB
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qDfV7ddDC
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？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenDaDFA46n
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTETtYPRCA
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcotKGHb5g
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXsl4eg9fj
茜的腦袋中只想著——那個男人是吸血鬼！521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzD26Q2dmP
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagEBUg39IH
會被殺！會被殺！521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERyBtFLO01
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiU3XOewxe0
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7youcrrGa
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2xRKMCw4p
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNAeXdLJpU
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FZ5QKflTt
只是蕾只說：「他是好人。」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyQFhu87Ug
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUZ7cgxp4I
為什麼？姊姊已不信自己了嗎？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7N07JhO1A
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBoNwih5Ks
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEosyv00M7
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lc4wXkmoc
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGMLNuPqnD
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLf1LfH5820
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWsenOjIHb
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1FTRAcMko
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！521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOeXBm1APy
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFXZ4j9ph6
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxtr8Dq0At
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB7UbzshoM
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXpDymPFIl
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjqv5zLY2J
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3luLN5B89o
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLW8WRr7CFA
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9kWtZ7RV0
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTly4eCIUs
那時是白天，大家都睡著。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMuRuNUUHm
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UaYF9bhcL
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……521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9VTnuQIcY
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IYodFIbLt
一個又一個地被殺害、燒死。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenjAXrRz8x
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdz9UxO2FEd
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZiHjH9a1b
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWjau5qwl8
「姊姊！姊姊！」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16UCePxfqn
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSaCKxO6Qb
去了哪兒啊？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDHTnMlQe9
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKTmjORIrD
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5kr6OzxPM
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2em1IjaJ5s
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLH1pm89dt
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPL3ZCqIQC
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbXTXcLm6I
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouUW2anbA9
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？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy72NOooQGL
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYWxLI47uW
沒有，他救了她們兩姊妹，更照顧她們日常生活。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlk5zsV7G8
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvZZ8t2lFl
至此她才終於明白，自己做了不能原諒，也沒法去補救的事。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡff97McRY4v
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnEgMdGBUw
接著，茜背起蕾逃出城堡。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS9XMJGuJB
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRl3WCeawu
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVfWAs8H3t
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleTGMYFktY
而在那時開始，蕾也成為了吸血鬼，只能活於黑暗中。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3iaxYzje5
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEiXHngc6m
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGqRGoSWab
「茜！你又發呆了啊！」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZPC6lc9oJ
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvZ2HntWKH
「那個、我今天也帶來了禮物！」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63CDm6wXmu
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEg2yDcZCsL
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjugAuobGl
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6MevLRgMh
「這是什麼？」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsFBDcVi3r
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMVj4R8uGz
「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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSzQ3KkkDX
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7h89WF7WW
一直待到早上，茜才和蕾告別離開。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuF5VLiuJ7
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRA31oIoO9J
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？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPXiuHa5kF
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpvkRV377U
即使是短短的瞬間，茜也覺得很難過。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycFLwOFiHR
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGOPhq1DUZ
靠有接近永遠的心情，會是怎麼樣子呢？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevnYsjHuCM
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOPhzo7rDe
想起蕾，茜只覺得很痛苦。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SNsxNpgtJ
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM48kApasFf
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwfxYHJLjU
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxF3B1rwKL5
不會是想起什麼吧？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGikrOBYM4U
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs8Kbx3L5C
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——521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8TUFTajcb
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2r3EyacqFk
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs32X5mFB35
花，開了。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoSr6NmJIC
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOyK6cuyyn
短短的瞬間綻開，也在下一秒就枯死。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJRsob3Fxq
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUKR8UFlo0
「姊姊，很漂亮吧？」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdX7LLdG9ZY
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeHUUrGcCh
「……」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPH5cht6sDo
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2yc2YMJnB
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcZzbX2E2R
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyZ7Uathbw
「茜……」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcWzV7dXBM
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YfBZGZkeo
「呀、是？」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhVL1c8oRh
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKUX3YjO6I
「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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHW6BH8B3Xq
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTqWtq60KA
蕾是吸血鬼！根本不能照到陽光啊！521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpsZC73q7f
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQATsSrQady
「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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NGBxNDULz
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRnIrA2wDA
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2p9mOCPtc
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9LT23GaR9
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYOHxG8UIZ
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWoDRw2U5w
那男人……不，「姊夫」一開始時，根本沒有想要將蕾變成吸血鬼。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEOmjjy8hE
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgOUdPVh1J
（一切都是我自以為是的妄想與妒嫉。）521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvkZrX2PXG
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFAm5swrrn
沒有愛，何生恨？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24IzeeEixS
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4rzPSQuR3
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQGQ4tWf3X
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDcdmFBaOz
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNq6XELIqye
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QVhbgkt0W
「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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iCRiBagXV
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjR9SxPN9a
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEU8zKbxnU
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKokwBU9hW
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGujHQTffaU
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoF6MNnVOo
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCMQeVFPel
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMLH9vV5py
好不容易才走到閣樓，窗戶卻被木板釘死。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTW7eqquaB
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYClkBAy5Y
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKbX4lqiP8
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nvs52X505
「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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmhjUsIaaU
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzFpaQeiXm
「姊姊……」521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3JwZUWAwG
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡferEV922I1
「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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwa0ygx0eCJ
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGibNd4mT0
叮鈴……521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0Xm2cfBNV
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiVvlQyO56
果然蕾剛才拿的就是這個，所有事她都記起來了吧？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETFJ2jC0OA
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjygYc8z0j
茜佇足在原地，一句話也說不出來。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo72XD12s7
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWNcoPpks9
「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？521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGgceDXveH
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1L7qtDoyna
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBHt9Omvhe
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0fNHbJB7p
是被光線迷惑嗎？蕾見到了，見到了如空氣般透明的他。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmn7fIFA3Y
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYSyyXRRoG
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIOQX2pR66
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifbUyDVOUA
「不要啊！姊姊！」茜悲傷的尖叫，令蕾稍微回頭。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazk9TsDOUY
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFYsqCmMOv
可惜太遲了。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46F5XwNzpI
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYTa7QINAs
蕾對茜露出一抹溫暖的微笑後，就縱身到窗外。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxUn8TIAtC
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LepxEZ17G
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRg5EMnOgX
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK6qT5okM3
「太好了，我們終於——」蕾無法說畢的話，化作輕煙。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwi96StdBCo
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tBtVWLoYH
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。521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWxIzp8B4Q
521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8wApXMShW
「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。
