蕭邦與李斯特的合奏曲進行到一個段落，兩人的雙手不約而同自琴鍵上抽離，場面瞬間恢復一片寂靜。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFR9k4WNZn
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRFBl33HJe
這時，蕭邦優雅起身，走到李斯特左側，低頭附在他耳旁說幾句，又帶著微笑坐回鋼琴前頭。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzdBd8oXyh
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1jUQKdIVo
台下傳來竊竊私語聲，對於兩人的行徑大是困惑。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPOSal2dZX
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSodBxJSx5
李斯特朝觀眾席看一眼，出乎眾人意料地，旋身到同有川面前，彎下腰，伸出手，邀道：「弗雷德里克邀請妳上台與他奏一曲。」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvqexibbtq
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwrLAwzbqH
「什麼？」她受寵若驚瞪大眼，驚愕的視線投向蕭邦，直迎上他炙熱的目光。「這──」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNt3JsgTajR
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBboApiKjQ
「請同小姐務必答應，為了這場演出──」李斯特頓了頓。「也為了弗雷德里克。」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctdRBjucbe
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06QnTugFtD
「好、好的。」咬緊下嘴唇，她硬著頭皮握住李斯特邀請的手，被他帶到蕭邦面前。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzrszYJsgH
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQGMk1MOAk
李斯特像完成任務般鬆一口氣，回到他的琴前，放下琴蓋。步下台之際朝蕭邦看一眼，嘴角噙一抹無法察覺的笑容。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenl3BFKRu4
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyb5rLW4xz
同有川被蕭邦拉到他身旁坐下。縱使離觀眾席有一段距離，她還是能感受到席上其他觀眾的驚訝目光與不滿的情緒。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEk4lnfVzX
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B7gGnN9Pt
「蕭邦先生……」她不解低喚。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCANfFZdX0
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAo9VW6CY0
他噓一聲，少了靦腆，右手大膽圈住她，把她整個人帶進懷裡。左手則從口袋中掏出張被摺得皺巴巴的譜紙。「看得懂嗎？」他邊問，邊在琴架上順平譜子。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3xYQXX0Et
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBb6OlDJBy7
五線譜上的音符凌亂不堪，有著明顯易見的塗改痕跡。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOlI538keg
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsQ0jEjqnZ
同有川看著譜，遲疑的點點頭，又搖搖頭。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjKiGHzBVq
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPturczOZa6
察覺她不安的蕭邦安撫：「這些全部都是右手旋律，妳儘管照自己的意思彈奏，我的左手會配合妳。」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqov7w36wlE
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpolrNFOyHw
儘管如此，她還是充滿不確定，但同時又不好拒絕，只能勉強頷首，伸出顫抖的手指，輕輕按了兩三個音。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oglFkbdMW
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuU1WS9nAB
「女孩，不要害怕。」蕭邦在她耳旁笑道。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsG6pU0u1q
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVh2oTOOP0Z
她深吸一口氣，瞇起眼，照蕭邦的話，隨著譜上旋律彈奏起來。曲子以緩慢的速度進行著，她卻太緊張，手忙腳亂，一下子抬頭辨識譜上的音符，一下子又低頭看琴鍵上的指法。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6o2np79Bvv
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWbVsulDzu
慌亂之餘，她朝蕭邦輕撇一眼，只見他泰然自若，左手優雅從容地在低音鍵上頭遊動。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOTW60GzoT
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MgirBTgWb
暗暗吃一驚，她對於蕭邦的鋼琴的造詣再度欽佩得五體投地。而且，無論她彈奏出的旋律是快或慢，蕭邦好似能預測她的心意般，使用的和弦或音階都與她配合得天衣無縫。在他的伴奏下，這首無名曲聽起來悅耳極了。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetFAAXT0NI
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzDv6n53Zr
曲調輕巧柔和且不長，最後一個和弦停在C大調。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnoNxTwhPL
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZs33r4IY5J
重重吐出一口氣，她額上盡是因過度緊張而凝結的汗珠。有默契地，她和蕭邦的手同時抽離琴鍵，但是C大調和弦依然在她耳邊嗡嗡作響。霎時，她放鬆身子，倒入蕭邦懷中。放眼望去，觀眾席一片漆黑，什麼都看不到，只聞席上的掌聲由遠至近傳來，腦中的餘音被打斷，她坐正身子，抬頭看向蕭邦。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNd4dKnPub
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvd6lRm18k
「謝謝。」她不自覺脫口而出，卻不知道為什麼要道謝。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcq8dYuuAVP
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7ryMvK3Zf
蕭邦一笑，鬆開環住她的手臂，起身繞到前頭，牽起她的手，朝觀眾微微一鞠躬。掌聲再度響起，他附在她耳邊，輕聲道：「喜歡嗎？那首曲子，是為妳而作的。」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8wuHJIlYu
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWepDPhYLg
縮縮肩膀，她被蕭邦在耳旁吐出來的熱氣搞得全身酥軟。「是、是的……」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSk0bFgTfS
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiU5beHEoXT
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFYcMEtW0d
演奏會結束了，觀眾們紛紛向蕭邦與李斯特道出讚賞。儘管演出後疲憊不堪，兩人仍持著禮貌的微笑，一一向觀眾道謝。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaYBtNVRYW
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGkUiuChsW
待到觀眾的散去，蕭邦堅持送同有川回她的住處。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKDTjVkd8j
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8QMaQoXax
「麻煩你了。」她不好拒絕，朝蕭邦欠欠身，與他一同步上馬車。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ivKcDj2Pu
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaJaOMdP3l
路途中，馬車一顛一顛地前進，她少了來時的新鮮感，輕靠上門窗，雙眼半睜半瞇，睡意悄悄地侵襲。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdWvi7pPId
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYcubSAbMH
「今夜，開心嗎？」蕭邦的聲音突然在她耳邊響起。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeM96CwWlk
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZEGFgMIdC
「噢，是！」她眨眨困倦的眼，轉頭朝蕭邦扯出一個微笑。「你與李斯特先生的演出使我難忘。」她頓了頓。「還有欽佩。」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMaUpPiFKh
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBED1ZRWSw5
「哦──」蕭邦垂下眼，對於她的回答顯得失望。「彈琴的技巧……若是妳願意，我可以教妳。」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8J1P1h7ECZ
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolVX4tArBh
「教我？」她瞪大眼，道自己聽錯。上天如此厚待她，讓她碰見大師，又讓她和大詩學琴？「你是認真的嗎？」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wgZPVTu1A
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡze9Nzi9hzr
「當然。」蕭邦泛出難以言喻的笑容，像苦澀，像無奈。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAVg39Ouve
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRHvQnf5g9
「可是……」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjUVGqEM6j
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYxiUTLiu2
「明日早上開始吧。」他打斷她。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhfAoT51Ps
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcwxFv2DPq
「早上？我得幫德爵女士買食材……」她低頭小聲道。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUdRtpELkb
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY18X4BVx6h
蕭邦一言不發，等馬車停在德爵家，他和她一同步下車廂，站在門口等德爵女士開門。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4bWzC3fOl
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3Fhpj2D8F
「蕭邦先生？」同有川不解他的行徑。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7T77aLph0p
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pQvkWetWX
這時，門被打開，德爵女士看見意外的訪客，面上露出難掩的訝異。「弗雷德里克？今晚的演出順利嗎？」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EvuNdvBaP
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiLLloEvLr
「是的。」蕭邦簡易答，話鋒立即一轉。「德爵夫人，不知道從明天起，能不能借用同小姐早晨的時間？」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfyitmGrPz
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWkok01uqm
疑惑地，德爵女士朝同有川望一眼，理所當然答：「當然可以。」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1qMWYM3pM
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecpBj6KMI3
「是嗎？」蕭邦的聲響變得愉悅，不等她問原因，立即一欠身。「那麼，晚安，祝妳們有個好夢。明天見。」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtE3B14pZBL
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B3CYRPbPj
最後一句話是對同有川說的。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL3ITATqql
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00PDMuwXUr
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9ay6Ml4Te
「到底發生什麼事？」德爵女士滿頭霧水。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdwBv3HXfA
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsKI1zywuQ
同有川把馬車上的談話和她說了一遍。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxfSvveItW
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jzkeDmUE5
聽完，德爵女士的疑惑立即轉為高興。她說：「這是很好的機會！」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQsTxaU6vo
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdAFeuxiEq
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNaQe0DyOX
隔天，她照德爵女士的指示走到蕭邦的公寓。他的公寓遠比她想像中還要平凡許多──並無她幻想的豪華水晶燈飾，也沒有漆成金色的扶手樓梯。一入門，長方形的客廳首先揀入眼中，右側角落擺著木製鋼琴。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IHbe4z6Vk
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRSlY5T68r
「早安。」蕭邦似乎剛睡醒，褐色短髮有些零亂，身上隨意穿著件白色襯衫，慵懶迎接她。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohCX4yIKYX
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2M6sH4nmTB
「早安，蕭邦先生。」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qnPokXuli
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6PUTS8acS
「從今天起，稱我的名字。」他領她到鋼琴前，點點首，示意她坐上琴凳。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqxjrbzCbO
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRZiRmYahc
琴蓋已被打開，上頭放著一張手寫的譜。她隨意跟著上頭音符哼一段，心中一股若有若無的熟悉感。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZfLPcYCNu
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2BYESlSTy
「有川。」他主動改了對她的稱呼。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2X7lJpgmCG
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseG8na2Z6v
「這是──？」她轉頭，尋問的口氣中帶著遲疑。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnAcRqFs2s
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF61wmoM1EM
他微笑不語，做了個手勢，像在說：「試試看。」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWO6Hc1ctkd
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCbOeCmNI3
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvzkfmFmAG
同有川的雙手擺上琴鍵，凝視譜子數秒，手指就毫不猶豫壓下琴鍵，下一瞬，曲聲由她指尖順暢滑出──這是不正常的，她的視譜能力可沒好到能一次就把沒彈過的譜子幾乎沒有錯誤和停頓彈出！但是，她敢發誓，二十年記憶之中，她絕對沒有聽過這首曲子，更何況彈奏！現下，她不只是「會彈」，她的手指甚至對每個音的位置都極度熟悉，有些橋段，連譜子都不必看，憑著「感覺」，她能夠準確無誤地按出下一個音的位置。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7RuysLOao
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6RfD5BagG
蹙起眉，她的十指在黑鍵與白鍵上頭游動的速度愈來愈快。她猜測，學琴十年中，她一定彈奏過這首曲子，不過忘記罷了，可是，下一秒，她直直否定掉這個猜測──她知道，這首曲子根本沒有流傳到她的年代……58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9X3iEcutf
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijVnw0gLOt
思及此，她的腦子突然隱隱作痛，眼神也跟著恍惚，朦朧間，那抹人影又浮現在她眼前。她眨眨眼，卻眨不掉那抹身影，求助地，她抬眸望向蕭邦，眼中的人影和蕭邦的身影重疊在一起了，合而回一，她眼前，只剩下滿眸溫和的蕭邦，等待什麼般站在琴邊望著她。她一驚，把雙手迅速自琴鍵上抽離，鋼琴曲戛然而止。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiqLdYb7hn
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2I0efyh9B
「怎麼不將它彈完？」蕭邦淡淡的語調傳來。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTW2TJgzRC
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIcGj7Q2Px
「我……身體不舒服。」她猛然起身，無法克制地質問：「這是怎麼回事？我彈過這首曲子嗎？」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqwtURlAXn
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIpYrHr3jr
抿緊唇，他神采奕奕的眼神瞬間變得失落，沉默半晌，低聲道：「對不起，是我不好。」說完，他伸出手，想拉她上一旁的椅子休息。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRMKF2htEC
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwR7e9JVFd
「不要碰我。」她強烈一縮，身子搖搖欲墜向後退一小步，閉上眼，全身上下宛如被抽離般難受。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyboXRInnpc
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHg75MM6qS4
「有川……」他輕輕抓她的肩，穩住她的身子。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFSDFdhbQg
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4z2SK4IoS3
沒想到，她被他嚇一跳，幾乎是下意識，她一揮手，使盡力氣推開他，跌跌撞撞地跑離他的住處。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4ZiG71SV4
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrqPzYzEq3
被她用力一推，蕭邦的重心一個不穩，整個身子往後跌去。心中一急，他趕緊伸手撐住身子，頓時，手心卻傳來一陣刺痛，穩住身體後抬手一看，只見手掌上滿是鮮血，一只被遺落於牆角的釘子深深刺入他的手心。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SLrUuSx5i
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WV1Pefj0q
望著掌上如溪水向下順流的鮮血，他頓時悲涼笑起，闔上苦楚的眼眸，無力地輕靠在牆壁上，任由傷口上的鮮血緩緩流出。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VZi9JpbwR
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqs1jch8EtM
隨時間流失，他的面色越來越蒼白，呼吸越來越緩慢……58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxklsuJJKG
