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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mfCiaUP7U
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcyoq1Eol8
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddlNKaFway
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoCjYnyXFl
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqH3pCpuNT
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2MnmQphuT
不，不對。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaUuPhb9Lg
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQHLxpso17
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」？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfYyhinc4m
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhsgFwb3IE
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoGnCkAlT4
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKCpRGrsFO
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrY1aWQSFHZ
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9SAeTb2zf
說美女是稱不上，但總算是可人兒。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIa49CO89AB
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPVdL140fL
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3V9VZm8ZzR
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SsKr95bfi
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BqmntILtk
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeUUKYbtYY
「茜，你終於來了啊……」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEbUVXEDsQ
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnS8bUmiWpX
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5P4KxdKeez
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBABBcOrlZj
「姊姊，睡飽了？」茜輕輕地呼喚對方，也就是自己的姊姊——蕾。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVzPWFCiAr
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrXpaU5DjJ
「唔、好像……是吧……我已不太記得了。」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoo7SJKBSPd
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84tIVPadUW
「姊姊……」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp49pn5HMz6
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDHEpi7NLE
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMqV3P19SD
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQjSce9GLY
不！她才不要！即使姊姊已經不再是——645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwr1VYfTTTE
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RbW0GrdGG
總之，她不可能把姊姊丟下！645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXQsrzS8OZ
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjiU5UpKWt
「茜在想什麼？別不說話，我會怕啦！這裡又一點光也沒有……」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVFkGgY73b
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmq2JV7EBLC
「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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7t0uUUGzfN
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO65aeF6nfG
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy91EXEt0Cm
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKNnqRiyox
（啊啊，在我老死後，姊姊要怎麼辦呢？） 645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qhsYoOahJ
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7tmfnxxsD
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxH6qUOmMg
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjBkimTQx9
對。蕾現在是吸血鬼，吸食鮮血的……怪物。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKmMWTZHuH
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5cqjvPmEb
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……645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NhNTkW0z5
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZBGZrxRPw
（姊姊會忘了我吧？）645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPccCYYazXk
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSR2WvMTJlZ
「茜幹什麼這麼望著我嘛？啊！我知道了！是茜也口乾吧！」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmpptSrL7p
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Z1VMwNHw2
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPR4WdbXvyz
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPgRuG1dd2
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……645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9I7aCmMlm
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7Jre0V7WO
「呀、抱歉……這麼牽著手太累了！不如我直接入來，好嗎？」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhS71smd0H
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9PGXXU3Z2
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY08go1UPMj
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXb44Mc24A
「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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99hOiDwisy
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdA5AjWvVg
（蕾記起當時的狀況嗎？她會不會恨我？）645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghopOvBx7g
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6MEjopP5B
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGQvNqeF1n
她們的父母早在戰火中離世，二人一直、一直都在一起。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8M1sZiMkS
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNInwpXxIkX
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOAuTEKQQC
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg27DBezKv6
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJRmj0oBgO
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQBBZldyrX
「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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyzrANVVSP
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXyRjmM15p
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dDfHFXi1Q
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AIOjT3J85
直至某天……645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzue5Cculy
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡws4XiWbxF0
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcTL1JSxpY
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uPwbQ7av6
只要二人一起，去哪裡也沒關係！645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3M3NyRqFb
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09nyFNDXuE
沒多久，她們就被趕出了城鎮，來到了森林。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPHl9xaplL
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsn8wEwyLH
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWELQCtfYPo
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAVUQK9ygV
野獸在身邊徘徊，等待她們力盡之時。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxWrdE5aOz
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0T22q3tDV
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……645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDUtqrCX81
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTdBIPdiw9
半昏迷的茜，突然感到有液體流入口中。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidwuWcMtiH
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kAZAPAoRg
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgVOxrKv3b
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqsldY1joa
那些，是什麼來呢？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnf1W8hjM5
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7k8vpEJhlE
當時茜什麼也不知道。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxmHDHNjMP
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXDiK4sGB8
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVBrCBEUsF
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwCmdK6UH7
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？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSME74FFBeT
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQL1WGfW71
只是剛吃飽，她就覺很累很累，沒多久又沉沉地睡著了。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM912KFn7E5
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEx2kURLmB
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfAbeHmxtU
「……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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFQa4Bk562
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hiEPX7nbO
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhuKWSXY57
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPc1qWEkYlo
「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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4heCZavBrW
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViSAWXdCws
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf31XHytQDa
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡin2qxsZ7OI
蕾和他對視，神色間霎然溫和起來。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3p8KyDdjrP
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXXe0RJK7n
「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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAtkfG8jDh
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhAzTOnrUp
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4b6fxL411n
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuicZuqFFl
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！645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLVjnzgriZ
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NasCq7hm9
「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。」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteQBZaOGzv
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrC6xVM9CP
「哦。」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOy0eKUTU7
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRS9D3Vb5Ow
待蕾大約地把事情交代後，她就和男子一起消失於門外。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡph3hcKciOa
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBVLA6uAqb
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……645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uj7wCL7xK
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mcNGMRjMJ
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxx1acMgJu2
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRFeuKYkyb
很幸福吧？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37HOrxFUmf
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNY1AtnEdBf
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Z3ULAmBRT
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0010dRU7eW
只是……645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HIgsHyf3a
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjU5TdEJu8Q
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YgB0vF6wV
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DLdyYi1cp
「晚安，茜小姐。」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPdivF3D8V
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2odAU3zz2I
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！645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJ6rmufCjF
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8lZSdHNct
「不用叫我小姐啦！」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cbcrD1Szg
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WxSyFvQ0v
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2PGdkmfVW
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGisHVM2Y51
她，只是想姊姊陪在身邊而已。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqIriQseh8
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgg18rNSpYt
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNFXSTadaz
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbUtTf9l05
「那個，茜……有沒有看過雙生花？」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KE5HCRn5c
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudYF0XhSaB
「雙生花？」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4OTHasvOv
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxekdnilDoE
「嗯，那是一蒂兩朵花的植物，看來就是很親密的樣子——」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzPR9z8UTW
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9Vp03FVOo
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！645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHw79sjfyY
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvnhm42l3A
「那麼在哪兒啊？」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNuBrKemrE
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3oRm2KL1b
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxv2ucCanAQ
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTvZpWBVzL
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajYbFdz8Kb
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8f9ALq2fW
不過，一切只是傳說，現在已經無從考證。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1CBq1Hvqz
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwDnMQYwIJ
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PSEphsrJB
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bkXuswoYP
幾乎每天到來的，她可從沒見到有什麼雙生花啊！645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe19vT4j3pM
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWpT1FwLD8
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvifegg0Hjb
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGQjddnbGm
「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——」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboqLkNZXVH
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNffVNB5Rj
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvrvUdk6ge
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8aUzmE75A
然而，是什麼地方出錯了呢？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJHFub69lM
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gspDF5jTw
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？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7kYQG6PlE
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFn3KRXRKHM
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhT3zyKiDzB
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3iA6vY1Bk
茜的腦袋中只想著——那個男人是吸血鬼！645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUfhv4w47c
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEehnhK4wdS
會被殺！會被殺！645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzBBZzASIr
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUP41cLJ1Wp
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiyLxDrqZv
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsu1qdtRTGj
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgndINI01Rc
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡio3ICaW4e1
只是蕾只說：「他是好人。」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyZ5QDohew
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJczJwaDWL
為什麼？姊姊已不信自己了嗎？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapRBYoj6fV
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksnNpg3diW
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYcvYP3GTg
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusLhwDL8Xy
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYDHeO1hmV
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRNp6vxhU3
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwau4J5FIi
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdr3EF40jyL
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！645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAV3oRuWMty
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyf9KL88Fy
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJi9X6hSXD
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4aBVm9PMn
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfE90wI7kMz
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHf4bLuh3o
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOt8AsWPWRo
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjTuqls9Oy
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRXFxXUKmM
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxoRsIBL0l
那時是白天，大家都睡著。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXKS5MF8vI
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRn6jErqujS
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……645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP49193L3fq
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGuDTkVcWT
一個又一個地被殺害、燒死。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71JbhBV0QB
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPfRwIkOvb
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfzqXsUUxK
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7na2P4fEk
「姊姊！姊姊！」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjsTZOCWak
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1RGtEIxhY
去了哪兒啊？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3niCnzBrY3
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE537Wi7O50
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSRTuRtLil
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTYKFRInuQ
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJPS4Eu1EJ
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznTtnSS5RB
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgl35SdUDnE
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRvFhSo5cg
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？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1dFdQNVIx
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dklTtvK6W
沒有，他救了她們兩姊妹，更照顧她們日常生活。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtZtDLj6t5
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngfDsg3Qwq
至此她才終於明白，自己做了不能原諒，也沒法去補救的事。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSOSnXlvGz
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyNkSxdtry
接著，茜背起蕾逃出城堡。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5d6RVDyoe
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvovVPqqMGx
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDr86ue0r0B
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Oy7b1gppI
而在那時開始，蕾也成為了吸血鬼，只能活於黑暗中。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyWlMsWEgy
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFIUKgp50N
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NbI935Ba2
「茜！你又發呆了啊！」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFa78DzOgC
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeImh6aT97Z
「那個、我今天也帶來了禮物！」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfHsqNPb22
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LuGZuNsLb
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc5uLvniTZ
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF9BXreJ7e
「這是什麼？」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMTNHds4Tm
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBRbNBFtkW
「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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmXcUdbnIA
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr51LGZ1AKP
一直待到早上，茜才和蕾告別離開。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUNibUwSeX
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacPt65vb9c
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？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ojbWkJDdE
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpIp0eSBRH
即使是短短的瞬間，茜也覺得很難過。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqudWP9VOoH
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqbNbMNtvX
靠有接近永遠的心情，會是怎麼樣子呢？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHe2BJo8AC
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztAeuXRhZy
想起蕾，茜只覺得很痛苦。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMXi8WmTQa
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5Wvhth4my
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskHkt9Hdkf
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nN1DmGKLp
不會是想起什麼吧？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnR0nRrL2DA
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMTGIyYJym
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——645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yxVyaUAcd
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF75D9TcwW6
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxn6zvO7B8m
花，開了。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyPYHLHS5G
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCrF3Pu0aZ
短短的瞬間綻開，也在下一秒就枯死。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTpKh76rg7
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2LuKDgK4y
「姊姊，很漂亮吧？」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbD89LRi0I
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5E65ZrYNV
「……」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHl0C3CVTnn
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5dsy3uhsl
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGX7hZFRnF
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahvhgxsOSo
「茜……」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFJojfjf4d
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflSwOLVD28
「呀、是？」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEN99X8sb5
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12Zt17LuKj
「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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lgNa9VS1C
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTl0a100ZXW
蕾是吸血鬼！根本不能照到陽光啊！645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfs6iQCP1v
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BJbr4bUZ8
「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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxFl8kTu7A
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczBq8j8hht
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZqavNU8g2
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNeIRqfCcj
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlu8eyXa3wT
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2tYWPrVpv
那男人……不，「姊夫」一開始時，根本沒有想要將蕾變成吸血鬼。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHYf6GdLkQ
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU2L31pu8S
（一切都是我自以為是的妄想與妒嫉。）645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMjrQ19wuH
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDUGveGvCT
沒有愛，何生恨？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2qKQKX0xA
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5o6z7rgoO
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBCI0fzCHO
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmpomn45by
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7IEEgg0fy
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjS5yPN6pqQ
「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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fa1jEPl7T
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhg485Lnqn
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVMlEvaV5s
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNn0GlJStt
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9ATXaWweB
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfYmOvwpBs
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5ZWgazCyx
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94sYjmlez0
好不容易才走到閣樓，窗戶卻被木板釘死。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7GxQi1ea8
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiHumhX2An
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQw3jW6Azui
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhfQLdyIC5
「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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlCDCJuoAy
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8twjz7qWK2
「姊姊……」645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34y6Fx7qUA
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnkOYiJ2p3
「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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpX5h4Xhzj
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRxp16H9Dy
叮鈴……645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbh52bJ9dDi
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22YaBs77mh
果然蕾剛才拿的就是這個，所有事她都記起來了吧？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvscFT6Egch
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2v5X4sXiw1
茜佇足在原地，一句話也說不出來。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEgGftdQ3F
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7NcVQ1fq5
「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？645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAi3bqwVk3
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1f33kUHR1V
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4PiGcACOq
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnHG94q8QU
是被光線迷惑嗎？蕾見到了，見到了如空氣般透明的他。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGA6Kx4Oxir
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1IGW0aIJf
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZIz883gXr
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHU3L3CrBFL
「不要啊！姊姊！」茜悲傷的尖叫，令蕾稍微回頭。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMyrhh6tD2
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEJYirJD1Z
可惜太遲了。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsD9qJs707E
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYlnTsBbvT
蕾對茜露出一抹溫暖的微笑後，就縱身到窗外。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjhTqk8pHL
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lsMxayNg2
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKAVlsMtYD
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJ4VW9jtu8
「太好了，我們終於——」蕾無法說畢的話，化作輕煙。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxXOYr57FI
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNd1Dr7hXmC
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。645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HmIZypFlC
645Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9vjJrfvV3
「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。
