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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3CmKuv6Il
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7X7FxesH9
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0kwF2VDQc
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThRyjKcAgp
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBY9KRg8W2
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyszaaM6WFS
不，不對。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxFEtXxGVr
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ITSCOAFFa
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」？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79gAghud8o
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlgwVrswgM
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgA715pFJVG
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86x2wXMLf0
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0yWectdV3
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGMRfWLKR1
說美女是稱不上，但總算是可人兒。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmATpMF2Cm
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EKbde8Hia
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGS44so6Kc
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhF363Xk7RE
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziT46vqMMp
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs727hW89Be
「茜，你終於來了啊……」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOzVz9XVrf
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtpb4YOErH
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnKgWq3wk5
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2bblQ0nrc
「姊姊，睡飽了？」茜輕輕地呼喚對方，也就是自己的姊姊——蕾。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBC1RBDO2U
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsV47ZUN9O9
「唔、好像……是吧……我已不太記得了。」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWOkkFnSK7
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTR2P4qYW4e
「姊姊……」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0J3JDFr1hV
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTyL7FReqR
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVjV1NowLf
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLilPitvrZ
不！她才不要！即使姊姊已經不再是——491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeirvSIwo0M
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3qphQHrHu
總之，她不可能把姊姊丟下！491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcP9vb09fR
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0H5iaCJ2sd
「茜在想什麼？別不說話，我會怕啦！這裡又一點光也沒有……」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxtemYxscb
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQtPTz8rYi
「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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cOTX8koWA
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPlMl8JV2x
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vVFVSA4PP
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRn8NPib6af
（啊啊，在我老死後，姊姊要怎麼辦呢？） 491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuL916tqCbN
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeaD0mUMW9
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllfY6KGxgl
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3nvmmDH3F
對。蕾現在是吸血鬼，吸食鮮血的……怪物。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dbl8mdqVb
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5QbZ25YRk
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……491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqTFoIFBb1
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLc7yZm595k
（姊姊會忘了我吧？）491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡortqMQn9Bj
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMz6lzi1XoR
「茜幹什麼這麼望著我嘛？啊！我知道了！是茜也口乾吧！」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsi9sU8jNOW
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMMsONKEHi
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEwnRihv5N
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSXZCt0YBD
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……491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbwZl0hKJx
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5yh7LROZ8
「呀、抱歉……這麼牽著手太累了！不如我直接入來，好嗎？」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXI6PrfYiqG
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzHavYbQa0
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47vjNXrNYj
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunBmSgrBvh
「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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHEixBozGZ
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxUBi14fy5
（蕾記起當時的狀況嗎？她會不會恨我？）491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqbJzkKNLL
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lzd5TVBc6
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0bJVDiAHt
她們的父母早在戰火中離世，二人一直、一直都在一起。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEH7353qooM
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnp90j1EGJ
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8wkNuIrP8
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUioI30DUh
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDeIXowcRw
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVLOJ00u5S
「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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9N0tNR52jx
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9BmQmoJ4C
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDLhaMOr7D
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNXwVj9Gy3
直至某天……491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JTnWla8vP
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1rU0A3wjs
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7emr8z7kC
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApTnQRJWQy
只要二人一起，去哪裡也沒關係！491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2G7sWx6Z8
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVn9XE63Dc3
沒多久，她們就被趕出了城鎮，來到了森林。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKh9pjNjUsF
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1wuNMv2VJ
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXg1GixIZR
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD14EhDxBH9
野獸在身邊徘徊，等待她們力盡之時。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBaHkLiEOK
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHrDCsyWOu
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……491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbqWuSlyJd
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiPOudvTlN
半昏迷的茜，突然感到有液體流入口中。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiy2gHTuhJK
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpWS1CPEiD
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡci5UpBb0q4
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMIlbukNzx
那些，是什麼來呢？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomFIlMmXpK
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEEw1jhvtq
當時茜什麼也不知道。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrUFkNsaSN
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EMLQWBD8z
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6StyUnFU5
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosBNrLaIiv
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？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOCcymmtUd
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSCOCRKzs4
只是剛吃飽，她就覺很累很累，沒多久又沉沉地睡著了。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRRf99tybR
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYxrTpyth8
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrYav3xyar
「……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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdLFtW7DR5
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJM1bZWKQ7a
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDC3r9xaEs
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuDfIzzK6K
「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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdgjO6HtGq
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaIQ6HP7ME
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3jYLHp7QI
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFa3DVm8Tp
蕾和他對視，神色間霎然溫和起來。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2q9YSqb5Pw
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQY8vN9MJM
「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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡay798zG6Xb
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbTKh9Ucs7
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEZ5hR65fh
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1glmACesJQ
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！491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AYjdFrSHX
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIg78MVAWt
「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。」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEe7vcEvfFJ
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6eZTeCLxI
「哦。」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iTn4RRxZG
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCP73wKsXP
待蕾大約地把事情交代後，她就和男子一起消失於門外。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclv6Rhlvys
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7O21ThE2B7
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……491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrus03I4hQ
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8n1iWrH0mf
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjHpllXmb9
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MbenErAhT
很幸福吧？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2XtAPIsCQ
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pZDYDLb9r
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Hr1emqfMs
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0tt23X20k
只是……491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaEgvRopiZ
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3vxEf0Cru
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZ2lo70XqO
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTKBZVvNq7
「晚安，茜小姐。」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6LpDj8BAR
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6s2UO6Mc4l
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！491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFrQsNxswE
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeuHNGy8J8
「不用叫我小姐啦！」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlmCqV49xH
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jwnxFZWfo
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9faHtsUku
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFOKUEguyf
她，只是想姊姊陪在身邊而已。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwpcwACVvI
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbV1zm8iroH
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ECXx79N8x
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUW5XmyYh1
「那個，茜……有沒有看過雙生花？」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3n37HEVqTQ
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrypsHHuhwQ
「雙生花？」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7dO4YQMMj
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4gqHfYoFT
「嗯，那是一蒂兩朵花的植物，看來就是很親密的樣子——」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMghDYxf3eC
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylasg26Ass
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！491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaAZ5zQfJH
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfevSTVMba
「那麼在哪兒啊？」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBITAy4uDg
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VgwdK6342
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwYoEC6YAY
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUUskhh6SS
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7noOzZ6kQP
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvPKjf60Me
不過，一切只是傳說，現在已經無從考證。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37xN81fHy7
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhRokfM9HW
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3aEhcYTsC
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQqpyes4uw
幾乎每天到來的，她可從沒見到有什麼雙生花啊！491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mr4yJpRaQ
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeV309Vjx2z
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcFHkra6N3
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKPbHOiqPC
「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——」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWdomGGeaG
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPNehbbbn1
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsW96xFnZx
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpGWZ0eeE2
然而，是什麼地方出錯了呢？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkMkcmkMAg
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNIvzlJL4M
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？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vOkVr9a1g
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqprtrNfKnA
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYt5AnRW20i
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwfjoosB3C
茜的腦袋中只想著——那個男人是吸血鬼！491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgq5WIASkx
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiIOORLXZC
會被殺！會被殺！491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwIJIUDJa2
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvSeYMRIAc
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mZQtQPFIi
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7rZz635so
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bp9xPkoYA
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7x4rGzW9Bu
只是蕾只說：「他是好人。」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMeAZxjm6k
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrEkaLaAr2
為什麼？姊姊已不信自己了嗎？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMrDTFGmEv
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BeXscr0uo
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4p6WbBQxsE
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnpfcu5Mcx
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGlbXJokSS
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2XVO4vAC0
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVixTCcqKm
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCuhw3MStb
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！491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptU9m61njQ
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfNZW1A61L
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoYkyqeNIa
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qCZAph8hg
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKsc9GRrxR
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8vWi22zrl
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡic8q08TSVK
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVuQzknm4l
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bylxVQmxE
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DfjhyMcPf
那時是白天，大家都睡著。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLfpOXcL4U
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUuTmWkPl5
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……491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4kl30C0J9
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyEf7QNvGM
一個又一個地被殺害、燒死。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaI51CAmug
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5JokWZ0qx
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtf0IbfyeG
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHu9t7a4UYY
「姊姊！姊姊！」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DVO1Xlo5y
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi9bqWJ9jo
去了哪兒啊？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIsjXrXvla
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDydtgv9MU
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dcyy83f3D
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLSupbeYP3
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2v8OsPan0t
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6wzCmkSps
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUOfJdDM92
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gOUMRdjF8
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？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pWBHItyUy
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLohwQg0fF
沒有，他救了她們兩姊妹，更照顧她們日常生活。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7slmVjPrYe
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmEAb8gy2k
至此她才終於明白，自己做了不能原諒，也沒法去補救的事。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Up9vRfhxq
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOWLgyjIYY
接著，茜背起蕾逃出城堡。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZoQh2mR55
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxSm7FZAxh
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQsaVPdQtc
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWMpDq4Aoy
而在那時開始，蕾也成為了吸血鬼，只能活於黑暗中。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiID83hbPc
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnO5C1S3d5i
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xsqtXgbxG
「茜！你又發呆了啊！」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAN9V9GUVig
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGeuZPMx0r
「那個、我今天也帶來了禮物！」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRIAAVfXxU
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9pLqJHzTG
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6FBgpGOk0
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZiuVmy47r
「這是什麼？」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiENzBXXRoY
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerTy3TEb4Y
「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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42sf55tnmi
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXjKrynzzg
一直待到早上，茜才和蕾告別離開。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLXKwI7EkI
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyBCdKHJNE
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？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfx8zXM8ofI
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XcUiG35mX
即使是短短的瞬間，茜也覺得很難過。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwm6lX8SAs0
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTJnvwMqy5
靠有接近永遠的心情，會是怎麼樣子呢？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7VIZqP8YS
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHOBNi2f86
想起蕾，茜只覺得很痛苦。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbYeAQriTX
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprfj3set15
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8y8ylv4wHp
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNz6BmKF9z
不會是想起什麼吧？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjOWrCLtUr
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOVNOMVXRQ
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——491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOQNKLu93L
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmtXuDSZRs
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfuM85JRZe
花，開了。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2Vs9D7xnD
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKI69MGBiko
短短的瞬間綻開，也在下一秒就枯死。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKDkgLIzR0
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1wuvIjVN2
「姊姊，很漂亮吧？」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrTHkfEUC8
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5GBJh14KD
「……」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXHuiERti5
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgGzobqfXY
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUodPHQx5UQ
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Wffx4bC23
「茜……」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRku6BtHo7s
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNx3IaS7q84
「呀、是？」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ983aENIwgs
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbb89am900
「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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAzr6Io7s6
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnh2zFkMo6J
蕾是吸血鬼！根本不能照到陽光啊！491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFvR5Q0Iib
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9ZusCVXdY
「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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8t3tHtQ6lu
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLh9ec1YSZ
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelB01ArE13
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNtY0QJFmO
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPwl9QgfnI
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUieDdaLCI
那男人……不，「姊夫」一開始時，根本沒有想要將蕾變成吸血鬼。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZi2VjbbYdw
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdknhC7uRi
（一切都是我自以為是的妄想與妒嫉。）491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0UtccnMSB
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50hkAPgde9
沒有愛，何生恨？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aeOEiVDQY
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oPJinR81t
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOUyTZVmvY
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8fwke0Jfq
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wi7e40d1l
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9L7MPTXos
「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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpvT3BhgKM
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxgPCFCNva
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0gtkhNM19
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWIVm12fcw
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ilrRkj0Jc
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdpR5c5vpk
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3vdyIBFSP
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr6p2iosQc
好不容易才走到閣樓，窗戶卻被木板釘死。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQKWKuk3Dx
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH30iUBFU2g
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2V3kzttZB
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSCJTtZptt
「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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwxjUZ2Vbd
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadGO4SKyjn
「姊姊……」491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKbAiwbHGQ
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrziv88lGdT
「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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡni2xj36pPs
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxCK7J2C5E
叮鈴……491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeNjep6KfB
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRWacTcbJ5
果然蕾剛才拿的就是這個，所有事她都記起來了吧？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZZm0ETCn1
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONAlmdl9lx
茜佇足在原地，一句話也說不出來。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzXNA7zgUJ
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUy6QMKQqTa
「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？491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnzLHtTEDe
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqxZYDwpev
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cWdNgWAts
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeCnyT6Gky
是被光線迷惑嗎？蕾見到了，見到了如空氣般透明的他。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlzPEnhuN2
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygkNNuHtEH
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7zG5Q1UFh
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMqr8pioUv
「不要啊！姊姊！」茜悲傷的尖叫，令蕾稍微回頭。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEc2CvMn5U
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKlqpuO5Ds
可惜太遲了。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPueb0bFIjk
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpsWjzbyd3
蕾對茜露出一抹溫暖的微笑後，就縱身到窗外。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3hRFla2Y0
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FEfDzmyYc
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4scoz8IXO
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LT6OwiwdZ
「太好了，我們終於——」蕾無法說畢的話，化作輕煙。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQv8pN2cWae
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XccS5k5l1
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。491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLKxtWvl4j
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaPNltJc4Q
「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。
然後按「加至主畫面」
