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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsScFwzQdG0
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHvhjEbrjE
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAGL6b3OgP
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipenu6yoll
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBVfsugp9x
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwGTvfs08g
不，不對。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeh9RNHwJxr
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAZcykvWrZ
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」？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4R3E5ZJwt
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdtVh5NeRg
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfBl8hALbX
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNNMzTdoyr
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7DkUBZroI
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OKn1MnfNs
說美女是稱不上，但總算是可人兒。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqVXsAdrk8
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVDwjdAHQE
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZU5UYiDlA
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFCo8Fo3zZ
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9cKjSA1xR
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6vhFob3PX
「茜，你終於來了啊……」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQwChw9RPr
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytj6Q2mcdy
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfWAtfQn8I
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyK9cEC2dC
「姊姊，睡飽了？」茜輕輕地呼喚對方，也就是自己的姊姊——蕾。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kYwqexjgP
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TlC9M0vVz
「唔、好像……是吧……我已不太記得了。」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpWu1Lfx5P
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobhBcY1Cvt
「姊姊……」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxYXHyrpH8
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxGPCJks1z
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXXdC1qsGf
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyY3a72DoAv
不！她才不要！即使姊姊已經不再是——514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡselBqykvei
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCgxDO5EMp
總之，她不可能把姊姊丟下！514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHwA4FZNtk
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvflMIJYAbX
「茜在想什麼？別不說話，我會怕啦！這裡又一點光也沒有……」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPl2z4WVLue
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CCvK48LND
「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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uhca8z0GU
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLRWPdmaVI
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeubZgXVmKM
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyTWjRlwLC
（啊啊，在我老死後，姊姊要怎麼辦呢？） 514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHskK0Hau3
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb8MgE1NWx
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtSlkRaz32
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhVDNSDUl3
對。蕾現在是吸血鬼，吸食鮮血的……怪物。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLWDpNKthk
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvshW3dGek3
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……514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziWdLkGDhc
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeSsmsNh8Q
（姊姊會忘了我吧？）514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGh0J4Bxh3
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTO6GKkRdf
「茜幹什麼這麼望著我嘛？啊！我知道了！是茜也口乾吧！」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAn8cyCZyks
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcUffhbu4t
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXklZyIqL65
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡts1HL3rn1j
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……514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunS40XHWJG
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡma2QMxaNGR
「呀、抱歉……這麼牽著手太累了！不如我直接入來，好嗎？」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwIO8ihn9c
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXqVBzvKQZ
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTK02FK6Dwa
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrgApvU4vZ
「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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JPLzczfjU
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52jMILUrCf
（蕾記起當時的狀況嗎？她會不會恨我？）514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoVAdRu8XB
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKSfBMjgqJ
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IqNQoOLLT
她們的父母早在戰火中離世，二人一直、一直都在一起。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAli7Gb4cb9
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAjHki5az1
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiclsdRzNjy
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyscs6EYqi
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDrvSh3weC
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRjpEIP87B
「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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5slCFHgLmy
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusrP1jiunz
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffhzQt0oWs
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuVB19gojN
直至某天……514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGa9M3Iz4Yn
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSRBt5PNhp
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXdkkZ2plt
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikY7Lkojy5
只要二人一起，去哪裡也沒關係！514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03BHFOBx7i
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJxVi87lAz
沒多久，她們就被趕出了城鎮，來到了森林。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapHAujzz4q
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZgC2ehgvK
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWjvZAxlgu
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkemq3FsVF
野獸在身邊徘徊，等待她們力盡之時。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36GqZkH1L7
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTJjGZKDfN
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……514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcP2hixQEcB
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPD4e1ygf9h
半昏迷的茜，突然感到有液體流入口中。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7Dqiy2EZl
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4JRo5lwYg
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwY4gjZbHAb
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtjhU4m2Z5
那些，是什麼來呢？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRHjwpuPyi
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcwTWbKVmP
當時茜什麼也不知道。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3Svs1HcfF
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lNeNXY977
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFR4PiwUiGg
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GtmAiyqlk
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？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpD8eprdL3G
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJqwj33TIk
只是剛吃飽，她就覺很累很累，沒多久又沉沉地睡著了。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEKnYa6Oll
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkz5wDTEj5
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4IqXmhQ1z
「……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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRe0ytDaqrG
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsVrvnXNAb
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcmZCstJaI
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62D9SAfxAY
「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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8shy31eQ8
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIfbtIVYyt
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZsYqtitBL
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJY5SxsBmL
蕾和他對視，神色間霎然溫和起來。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqN1teHb4Z
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkpgGpF89U
「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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3rQpcEg71
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAQJ7idfFx
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1018bgg6jW
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb97BUhEzRb
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！514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasdu3sofBc
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKYOjxTPkq
「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。」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9ClKXVSAT
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OagbbQz6e
「哦。」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4rmnAo3ly
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnD7rIjBL2G
待蕾大約地把事情交代後，她就和男子一起消失於門外。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdl70ABeoUI
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHC2DzTIC2F
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……514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAj2wPramlV
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJLr03kysi
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPjMcWX75D
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YCJnXb7T7
很幸福吧？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSMJgR74F6
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5drNQbB6Nd
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLSX4FbItM
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWB0yBfcym
只是……514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoDpQRS3R7
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErWKk8iu6M
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nTloxbnTt
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiUOu7hoPw
「晚安，茜小姐。」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7zIbOwFGt
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyukt8cYCmX
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！514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcv01qXVwv5
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVB3Brw9D9A
「不用叫我小姐啦！」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhnqZlc9Q7
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTs5NGu6VBq
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeDIRvi3N5
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZRKZbkHHY
她，只是想姊姊陪在身邊而已。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6d3SEPxBnG
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxQPGHNPmN
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Ii42aA8Yi
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmSDtKYDst
「那個，茜……有沒有看過雙生花？」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBfuoD5d4L
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHaBfPMASh
「雙生花？」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyIBkyI7l9
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3s3rT3CVb0
「嗯，那是一蒂兩朵花的植物，看來就是很親密的樣子——」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHIlAbwFlM
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYZ0P6DsYu
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！514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzEC6fr7cE
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzm18KaEbN1
「那麼在哪兒啊？」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePqeK3tEla
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbKCOmSrbE
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nZHXg2zDr
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpN4tGFFmyQ
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXplZ1t0yi
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmSneWkPda
不過，一切只是傳說，現在已經無從考證。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgPfPkYH7i
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPU4VbirAw
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKehE1uC3Q
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DuE7YmF6F
幾乎每天到來的，她可從沒見到有什麼雙生花啊！514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLu17FMyxe
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWgvXVhlI0
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiVMAoehmZ
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWN4V0dJ4S2
「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——」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTF4WQOUzH
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7aPpFySJF
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HUQP8tbz6
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPjr0xuXwJ
然而，是什麼地方出錯了呢？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIPuHRnOXh
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhnpCVQm3C
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？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsd1v27zCu
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOjnvbWEbR
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuziiNIENIx
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkYLQkHVaC
茜的腦袋中只想著——那個男人是吸血鬼！514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWQp3YGXza
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2RUcXxEup
會被殺！會被殺！514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5UHzQVcbW
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdOiZnNzDc
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjI4V0SUYp
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWkS9W7F4d
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2bJGvOPg3
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWm4tWS7KI
只是蕾只說：「他是好人。」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KwsLTy6zx
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPn9Kcc0uX
為什麼？姊姊已不信自己了嗎？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJnaHWNwBD
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvEH7jQLsy
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9ntTjbxEF
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxuS4qAvxF
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sm7NaGoAx
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Mi53voktz
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LSBcYEDQd
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudylE1nfF6
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！514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6i4uarSOik
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGvnYdVypJ
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRY9y2HkwW
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGXAhfxNJ0
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfejs14GIj
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡus2AS1zS0A
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNpjXKykPB
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgf4oHWzIce
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbm8UAODnp
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzu3NkRMVyW
那時是白天，大家都睡著。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJw8KOTMAq4
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLPdfACaXJ
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……514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPfdZz8cfI
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmX2wXyhPof
一個又一個地被殺害、燒死。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0b4eK8bbz
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsEpmddNoD
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPViUObyDsO
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJN51XLYit
「姊姊！姊姊！」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMbUkbOSxu
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdtAQXkxK0
去了哪兒啊？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVwIRcKVZI
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlu6sHhQa2v
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINzm9Ev8qn
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkx0Jn8xCg
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0j8R67qLt
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoniyUfS0h
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQ93MK6d5Q
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmDRmYXrvL
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？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidd5h8DtZY
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5W3CzInGbm
沒有，他救了她們兩姊妹，更照顧她們日常生活。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMMeAr5dMU
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpL0ty0IuPL
至此她才終於明白，自己做了不能原諒，也沒法去補救的事。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz42mLPlPak
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9BioUoYS9
接著，茜背起蕾逃出城堡。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4bol1dDPV
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhLC3IEh49
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjclkwVhnS9
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgBNWPqy26
而在那時開始，蕾也成為了吸血鬼，只能活於黑暗中。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvV8vV7NwO
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8SCMJCxK4
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMikhMrdqD6
「茜！你又發呆了啊！」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iBmsOThmR
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9j4iyqt7Z
「那個、我今天也帶來了禮物！」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITq2jIAn8F
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDVrZArxs2
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvK7vIABbq8
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxwpZV9gVX
「這是什麼？」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5fu70dvGY
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbkd9Kmcd7
「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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYim1creeF
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxyFoWpCeH
一直待到早上，茜才和蕾告別離開。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAPHIG4Cj6
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslbJbDSCA2
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？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztXDK4inlb
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgsrphMz1N
即使是短短的瞬間，茜也覺得很難過。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQ3uB9O4up
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6jmJLCesP
靠有接近永遠的心情，會是怎麼樣子呢？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqADrR5nBb
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGxI2JbOgr
想起蕾，茜只覺得很痛苦。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjdLproCvw
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUDLUZqllM
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpGy8Ulpkw
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuE6wAAlBBi
不會是想起什麼吧？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4BzMx22Zg
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXW1Y7JSNwO
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——514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlVZkWrsk7
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTA9Vjnvi4
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHlX0sUopk
花，開了。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HNwrbzA2l
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8psLUAKMsP
短短的瞬間綻開，也在下一秒就枯死。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnbK5BJbiF
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5ZrVjOXER
「姊姊，很漂亮吧？」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lazY4B1od
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBn9iPV5kF
「……」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRsKfqZQkL
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANCGCl91Hd
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqgABxk4Wg
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqh4mGbjivT
「茜……」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4np2dcom1
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNuuVAF5Nr
「呀、是？」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHl53ordxp
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXPMXin0zV
「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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcCsPxqNSh
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJsXRccCdV
蕾是吸血鬼！根本不能照到陽光啊！514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidzDAQ6mzM
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EiDv5X5LA
「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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgh33j8upO5
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aPxkJBu8C
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReTumJGz2d
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mv7BTuVaE
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNrzBEYHQH
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4E8YySZp6Q
那男人……不，「姊夫」一開始時，根本沒有想要將蕾變成吸血鬼。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnUdaP5l6A
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40lFqDBsgQ
（一切都是我自以為是的妄想與妒嫉。）514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYxY8d4Zp7
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5XxxepsnD
沒有愛，何生恨？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRd9IO4Ic5K
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4oap4E2fO
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmyunbxbGb
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaSyn5Q2er
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKYga9m4eN
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo80gG9D9zz
「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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuy9ona8BZ
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqJ7EhPs0r
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6wtyRzM5D
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2UvaNEytz
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXoTDPnz8M
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk36Y58dxaB
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshVZfQr0jC
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tmzSJWuMV
好不容易才走到閣樓，窗戶卻被木板釘死。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgrfeyaKs2
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARF4HMVTIj
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOtO85HPEM
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrSHT02R6o
「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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA39SJCRQGx
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcFY1tOFt5
「姊姊……」514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMG41EfHXbB
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKB4pJef3nq
「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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZFM5LcV1H
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3esdXGqTF
叮鈴……514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsxIOPgpZa
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDLsyIv5D1
果然蕾剛才拿的就是這個，所有事她都記起來了吧？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgIgUIULyM
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaOuIBibgy
茜佇足在原地，一句話也說不出來。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjD9g7mWra
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKWomccRR4
「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？514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7aVuUnNa9
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoHIszM7xK
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZaiLRQEKu
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDP7yV9ftf
是被光線迷惑嗎？蕾見到了，見到了如空氣般透明的他。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoEeE9gm8s
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28iMEEJA0l
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmvYiwiLZL
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34oV5q69Mb
「不要啊！姊姊！」茜悲傷的尖叫，令蕾稍微回頭。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmb4i3aXZFw
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCaIRX7RGw
可惜太遲了。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHtBQt6jzR
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhye1Yg4P7N
蕾對茜露出一抹溫暖的微笑後，就縱身到窗外。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKN77IC2mBx
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qz4ovysNm
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6ZTPNdge8
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VWr795RVQ
「太好了，我們終於——」蕾無法說畢的話，化作輕煙。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAfGbj0yJ7
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQLjiOoPnJ
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。514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwV8DjH5kxf
514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡio14pF1IqW
「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」
