25 白い雪 外传 Snowy the Tale（1 / 1）
雪，零碎地飘下，散落的樱花般，静谧无声，在逝去的明媚中显得惨白，反倒不那么耀眼。梦一样绚烂，甜蜜，只是冰冷的让人无法靠近，只能远观那美景……
“看呀，哥哥!下雪了! ”
童稚声音回旋，像雪的冰晶一样透明，又那么无力，脆弱，雪总会溶化，冰总会碎，梦和甜蜜也会消失。
“是呀，那么美丽，像雪儿一样。”
在她旁边，比她高大，又强壮许多的人站在她身边，握着她冰冷的手，让暖流经她的身体，一瞬间，雪儿想挣脱开，她不想和人太亲近，却抑制不住不安的感觉，于是紧紧地握着，不想再次失去温暖，但是雪花得到了温暖，只会溶化……
几年前，和今天同样的雪，同样的晶莹，就在这里，她被他发现，在战争以后; 在她真正的家庭死亡以后。她迷失了许多年，但最终到达了，这个没有战争，只有宁静的镇子。为什么她会叫他哥哥呢？明明是没有血缘关系的，她知道，但从那天他握她的手并领她回了家，她不能忘记他的微笑和他的仁慈。虽然人们会有流言蜚语，她比她真正的家庭更爱他，那天，哥哥的嘴角轻轻上扬：“走吧，小妹妹。”
“走吧，小妹妹。”他握着雪儿，紧紧靠在他的胸前。这个小镇是很少见到雪的，在雪儿来到之前从没有过这样圣洁的雪，所以他才取名叫她雪儿。但他的妹妹真地感觉像雪，像花一样的外表并且有贞洁的心灵，但短暂，他甚而不知道她还剩下多少时刻。 “带在外面会生病的，本来身体就弱。”
雪儿没有动，望眼眺望山的那一边，她来的地方，她从未想要回去的地方，私语：“哥哥，为什么雪里不能开花呢？明明应该是很美的……”
哥哥惊讶的看着雪，一会儿，他露出了笑容：“什么吗？即使在雪里也有花开得哟，在山里，那些悬崖上，梅花正在绽放着……”
雪儿激动不已，她想要亲眼看到这些美丽的花，但她知道她的身体不会允许她那么做,她只可以想象：梅花的森林，比粉色更深沉，比红色更温柔，雪融解，从瓣上滑落，站立在多雪，坚实的岩石里，寒风和冰设法毁坏他们，但他们一样的灿烂，绽放在冰封逆境里的花……雪中之花！抖落了寂寞与哀伤，开花，只为了美丽……
“还有一朵，开在雪里的花……”哥哥说着，弯下腰来，手掌轻轻的按住雪儿的胸口，“感觉到了吗？就在这里哟。”
“咚……咚……咚……”静静的，一声声有节奏的心跳声传来，那么轻巧的弹跳着，就像小鸟的心脏一样。因为被遗弃在暴风雪里，她从小就体弱多病，但是就算是为了哥哥，为了和哥哥在一起，只有活着，埋藏痛苦，绽放，即使是在冰雪中，勇敢的微笑。真傻，只为了那种淡淡的幸福，明知道会是转瞬即逝的，一切都会灰飞烟灭……
“为什么……”雪儿的声音颤抖着，脸上泛起一层红晕，视线渐渐的模糊了，脸颊好热，就像要被蒸发一样。
她拥抱他，在他的胳膊里寻找着安慰。当她在哥哥身边时她感觉安全，她相信她的哥哥是最坚强，足够坚强来保护她和给她信念。哥哥脸上露出一个微笑，抚摸着女孩的头发，向他们第一次相遇时一样：“因为你是命运给我的最好的礼物，我可爱的雪儿呀！”
泪水顺着脸颊流下，却又忽然变得冰冷，凝固住，雪儿紧闭双眼，她不想让人看到她的泪水，只是希望着雪永远不要停，这瞬间永远不要失去……
只是单纯的爱着这样的哥哥，这样的温暖，这样的幸福……
几个月后，冬天的最后一天，最后的雪花飘落时，雪儿同溶化的雪花和凋零的梅花一起离开了人世，她虚弱的身体最终还是没有挺过严酷的冬季。哥哥一直陪在她的床边，直到他想要保护的那朵花儿无声凋零，远处，梅花的花瓣一一飘落，而山林里的繁华开始绽放争艳，阳光洒下希望，溶化冰雪……
如果梅花不凋零，冰雪不溶化，春天就不会来临。人都是期望光明的，雪只是为了点缀无味的冬季，虽然雪的溶化会带来少许悲哀，但他马上会被明媚的春那目不暇接的新事物代替。只是为了悲凉的美而存在于世间，绽放于世间，然后，带着安详的微笑离开世间……
天堂的信 Snowy
哥哥：
我听到你呼唤着我的名字，那时，我的嘴角不由自主的上扬，因为那个从远方传来的声音声音像甘露一样湿润了樱唇，又像醇酒一样醉人，于是我的脸颊泛起了一阵红晕。
我想，遇到你真好……
即使犹豫过，迷茫过，不甘心过，可以遇到你一定是好事吧？
我喜欢晶莹的东西，可以时而透明，时而闪烁的东西，好像是虚无缥缈的，却又实实在在，不是那么华丽炫彩，却是那么另人陶醉。只是一瞬间而已，好像就可以一见钟情似的。
我调皮的笑着，一定吓到你了吧？
不是一见钟情，只是单纯的喜欢而已，不管是若有若无的那些，还是闪闪发光的那些，还是只是平平常常，不受人亲睐的那些，我都喜欢。
恩，只是单纯的喜欢着就好。
不是每个故事都由‘long time ago in a far away land’开始的，有些就发生在这里，此时此刻，也不是每一个都以‘happily every after’结尾的，悲剧也不是少见的，其实我是喜欢不是完美结局的故事，有一点点的缺憾才能感受到真正的美。
不要怪我，我还是期望着完美的……
这个故事，我们的故事，是由‘snow fall’开始的，以‘peace, happiness and alive’结束，这三样都是哥哥给我的礼物，对不起，我自己没保护好最后一个……
但是，那都是我最最珍惜的礼物……
所有的女孩都曾经梦到自己是公主，但是我却没有过，至少不在我的记忆里。每当流星划过天空的时候，你许下的是什么愿望呢？恩，我猜得到的，因为是哥哥你嘛，一定没错。我没有什么可以许的愿望，我不想当公主，比起所有的那些幻想，我更珍惜‘Snowy’这个名字，因为这是哥哥送给我的。
我说谎了，我还有一个想要许下的愿望……
如果，可以有那么再多一点点的时间…… 一点点就好……
我想听你叫我的名字。
□□的命运是不能改变的，但是在这个世界里是否存在呢？即使存在也没有用，侑子说了，时间的代价，能和时间相同等的代价，是关系□□？羁绊的证明，感情的存在，哥哥的记忆……
别担心，我是不会把这些做代价交出去的，这些是比时间更重要的东西。
我要是会魔法该多好。
即使会魔法，也许我也不会救自己……
对不起，好像说了多余的话呢。
我是喜欢哥哥的……
哥哥也是喜欢我的吧？
你……会责怪我吧？明明是约好了要永远在一起的。
明明知道不可能，为什么要约定呢？
你会说我傻吗？
我很开心呀！能和哥哥在一起，能看到哥哥的微笑，能……活着。
但是没有办法呀，我不能陪在哥哥身边…… 现在不能。
但是，果然遇到你是件好事！可以有那么多开心的事！
可以喜欢上你。
我在这里很快乐，因为有那么多和哥哥在一起的记忆。
我喜欢你。
哥哥。
雪儿

附：你有看雪吗？我也在看着哦，因为那是同一片天空……
Snowy the Tale
Snow drops fall down flake by flake, like petals, like leaves, more than quiet. Snow-white cottons fill out the lakefront and cover the red roofs. It falls, sometimes, falls on curious puppies, and scares them back behind the door, even too afraid to bark, afraid to break the silence. The sun feels farther than ever, it becomes so shy that even needs the clouds covers. Such a peaceful place, like a dream, a dream never ever.
“Look, Brother! It’s snow!”
A childish voice flows above the field of a small town; a clear voice, like glassy ice, or the cold wind beyond the sky. Upon the hill, the big forest surrounds the town and hides it from the war, from fire that burns the suffering, from shots that break hearts.
“Yeah, so pretty. Like Snowy, your name.”
Beside her, a man who is much taller and stronger than her stands, holding her cold hand, letting warmth flow through her body, and she holds back, not wanting to lose the warmth, not again.
A few years ago, the same snow, the same holiness like today, she was found by him, after the war; after her real family’s death. She strayed for many years, and arrived in this town, the town with out war. Why did she call him “brother”? She has no blood relation with him, she knows, but since the day he held her hand and took her home, she couldn’t forget his smile and his kindness. Although people look at her with a snooty eye, she loves him even more than her real family.
“Ok, Snowy, go inside.” He holds Snowy tight and close to him. This town wasn’t snow very usual, they don’t have the angelic snow like this before Snowy’s here, and that’s why he named her snowy. But his little sister truly feels like snow, flowery outside and has virtuous heart, but ephemeral, he even doesn’t know how much time does she left, “You don’t want to catch a cold, right?” he asked.
Snowy steps back, looking far upon the hill, where she’s from, where she never wants to go back, and then she speaks at a very low voice: “Brother? Why doesn’t flower bloom in the snow? It must be really beautiful if it does.”
The man looks at her surprised, and after a while, he smiled: “There is one, even in the snow. Right inside the forest, they are plum flowers, people call them wintersweets.”
Snowy is excited. She wants to see these flowers with her own eyes, but she knows her body won’t let her do that, all she can do is imagine: a forest of plum flower, red like blood. Snow melts, dropping water down from the petals, standing in the snowy, strong rocks, cold wind and ice are trying to destroy them, but they don’t even blow. They block the war and protect this land, this town, even it’s tiny, and no one knows, but they’re strong and trying to protect their love from disasters, for giving another one more second, to letting people live in happiness and peace.
“And there is another one, blooming in snow,” the man lays his knees down, facing Snowy, and puts his hand on Snowy’s chest, “Dub, Dub, Dub…” her heart throbs, with cadence, “this one is even more beautiful than wintersweets, it’s inside here.”
Snowy stays, she doesn’t know what to say, what can describe her feeling, her heart hurts, but different from when she is sick. She is afraid, afraid of one day she will leave her brother, leave this world.
She hugs him, long and deep fall in his arms. She feels safe when her brother is close to her, and she believes her brother is strong, strong enough to protect her and giving her faith to live. And he is praying too, to keep Snowy safe and not let the death god takes her away, the flower he wants to protect.
But the nightmare still comes, at the end of winter, Snowy was gone with the plum flowers and the heavenly snow, her brother was by her side， gave her strength and supports, protected her until the last minute of her life. In the forest, other plants take plum flowers’ place still protecting the town and things they love from disaster.
The war can’t be control by our wish, maybe one day the war will enter this town and destroy it, maybe no one will survive. But at least the forest is going to protect it until the end of their lives, the same as men with strong faith and protecting their loves, hoping that at lest one of them can survive. And fight to the last for peace, happiness and alive…
