了??。??妳??忠??實??的??泰??戈??爾??。??」

        ??這??什??麼??東??西??啊??！??光??是??一??句??「??妳??忠??實??的??泰??戈??爾??」??，??就??讓??她??甜??蜜??地??又??腳??趾??蜷??曲??了??。

        ??雖??然??傳??教??士??如??此??真??誠??可??靠??，??但??獨??角??獸??的??離??去??，??讓??愛??麗??絲??學??會??不??要??對??任??何??人??有??所??期??待??，??因??為??有??期??待??，??就??會??有??失??望??。

        ??能??意??外??遇??到??泰??戈??爾??，??共??度??美??妙??的??三??天??，??她??就??覺??得??足??夠??了??，??即??使??說??是??情??人??，??但??未??來??的??事??情??誰??也??不??知????，??她??不??是??不??相??信??老??虎??，??只??是??對??彼??此??的??關??係??沒??有??太??多??不??實??際??的??幻??想??。

        ??一??天??又??一??天??過??去??了??，??她??還??是??照??常??生??活??，??有??時??不??經??意??想??到??泰??戈??爾??讓??她??發??熱??的??眼??神??，??就??幻??想??老??虎??那??規??律??又??磨??人??的??抽??插??，??然??後??讓??自??己??達??到??高????。

        ??七??日??後??的??傍??晚??，??敲??門??聲??又??響??起??，??她??有??點??期??待??是??泰??戈??爾??，??不??過??來??敲??她??門??的??居??民??不??少??，??所??以??她??沒??想??太??多??。

        ??門??外??沒??有??人??，??但??地??上??有??一??籃??新??鮮??的??粉??紅??色??玫??瑰??，??玫??瑰??上??有??張??白??色??卡??片??。

        ??她??把??花??籃??拿??進??屋??裡??，??翻??開??卡??片??，??上??面??有??泰??戈??爾??的??筆??跡??：

        ??「??吾??愛??：

        ??十??分??繁??忙??，??請??人??送??去??玫??瑰??，??以??表??思??念??。

        ??妳??的??棕??色??眼??睛??與??頭??髮??，??妳??的??笑??容??，??妳??的??嬌????，??妳??在??磨??菇??毯??上??迷??人??的??模??樣??，??經??常??出??現??在??我??夢??裡??。

        ??期??待??早??日??能??與??妳??至??彩??虹??谷??共??度??愉??快??時??光??。??不??停??思??念??妳??的??泰??戈??爾??。??」

        ??老??實??說??，??她??一??度??有??想??，??說??不??定??泰??戈??爾??是??個??情??聖??，??擅??長??打??動??女??人??心??，??用??這??種??忽??冷??忽??熱??的??方??式??想??玩??弄??她??。

        ??但??她??心??底??的??聲??音??告??訴??她??，??那??隻??老??虎??對??她??是??無??比??的??赤??誠??。

        ??她??輕??輕??在??卡??片??上??吻??了??一??下??，??把??玫??瑰??插??到??水??瓶??中??。

        ??幾??天??後??的??中??午??，??當??她??從??市??場??收??攤??回??家??時??，??遠??遠??地??看??到??那??黑??黃??相??間??的??花??紋??。
