tiger flower

  “I arrivedI have to get off now.”


  “.”


  “I think I'm in a deep sleepKeep sleepingI'll move it for you.”


After a long journey, we arrived at a large mansion.There are withered flowers and grass around.There was nothing but a tree with all its pillars cut off..


The man carried the sleeping woman into the mansion, laid her down on the bed, and covered her with a blanket up to her chin..


  “You knowI remember thatThe day you and I first metYou gave me a bouquet of flowersI still have thatI put it in a vase and keep it carefully.I cherish it very much.”


He continued speaking in a tone that seemed to be reminiscing, and gazed intently at the tiger flower on the table next to him..


  “The scabbard exists for the sword.The vase exists for the flowers..”


The man sat on an old sofa with torn leather in a shabby mansion and spoke while twirling a silver dagger bathed in moonlight..


  “And you exist for me.”


He spoke to her on the rusty bed next to the sofa.She didn't even show the slightest movement and was sleeping soundly, like a dead corpse..


  “How do you think you could leave me like that?.”


The man who had been speaking with lifeless eyes got up and walked towards the bed.Then he looked at the woman who was in a deep sleep and snickered..


  “Don't try to leave meI'm telling you not to waste your energy for no reason.Even if I run away and run away again, it will end up with me anyway..”


I saw the woundwill never be erasedHe was full of indelible scars.What on earth makes him so cruel?Did you make it empty?In his eyes, which still lacked any trace of life, a transparent liquid, like glass spilled on the floor, welled up and soon fell down..


  “Don't leave mePlease stay by my side.”


After finishing speaking, the man closed her eyelids, which had not yet closed due to fatigue, and held her cold hand, forcing her to fall asleep..


Please don't forget meRemember me for the rest of your life and be with me every moment.I will love youSo please love me too.

 

The tiger lilies in the pretty vase on the table next to the sofa were blooming more and more brightly..
