遠遠的就看見牠了，還是在路邊，一對情侶的身旁。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZ28EDRiM1
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVkerPVwNP
那對情侶在吵架，牠離他們那樣近，他們卻視若無睹。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKpf4UdZyM
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cDAmtJyEp
我在馬路的對面看著，被一隻豹看著自己與情人爭吵的感覺不知道是什麼…？510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqV8eMDVS17
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxo6ya3dZcN
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hNQ6ytSRE
牠的頭慢慢低下，用牠的前腳掌拍了拍（還是摸？）自己的領結，幾分鐘後牠抬頭，看見了我。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytwbamjbUE
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMjs2M8oW0
一瞬間讓我感覺自己是個偷窺狂。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuohjo60ig
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJMzsewaGE
花豹離開情侶，越過馬路來到我身旁。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEybz3L6wZ

510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZubhjwUq0H
「呃…我記得上次你跟我說，如果再遇到我，要把有關哀悼的事情告訴我。」為減緩尷尬氣氛，我只能先開口。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnPfwc3TlE
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyhbkigjWH
「我剛剛正那樣做。」花豹說。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IwAJW5DHn
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5NjjnL4YG
「我以為你所謂的哀悼，是跟死亡有關的那種。」510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAAK3xo4uM
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdndxlhlA8s
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KKIPnXP4D
牠說，很多事情都可以哀悼，逝去的生命當然是其中一種，剛剛牠所哀悼的，是逝去的愛情。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqaNdyUBmd
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBquJGnIc4
有時牠要替離家的游子哀悼；有時牠站在十字路口，為了十年前的一場車禍哀悼；或是在哪個女孩學會化妝與打扮後，為她哀悼。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtS8fkUhxQ
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVjaWLy1Ad
「逝去的，就不會再重生，唯一能做的就是哀悼，感謝他曾經出現。」510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8GkK37b55
花豹說這句話的時候，沒有看著我。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTziIuRucb7
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLftsxC5TCH
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGwLT3NtDm
我問牠，「哀悼」是牠的工作嗎，牠沉默了一會兒，說：「不是工作，但性質就像工作吧。」我聽不懂。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9C7uoJuG2h
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYVSo2s02E
我又問，還有其他花豹或其他動物也和你做一樣的事嗎，牠說：「有的，但是不多，也多半不願意接近人類，這個世界上需要哀悼的對象太多了，人類不是首選。」510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNRucpVvqZ
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JqG2WQf5V
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKH40uCrhOo
當我說「那像你們這樣的…」花豹突然插話，「這就是哀悼手不願意接近人類的原因。」510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiybBpCiV6d
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWE188IoAkx
「什麼？」510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQy6H2yZ2O
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsFhpcpcWF
「你們、你們、我們、我們。」510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg7zzdASlf
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBVEH5zIH5
…我懂了。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtminFpx8j
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIQAjkU41c
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTscQ1TCPxB
「對不起。」我臉一紅，對於身為人類的自己。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcoMu31Vse
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7vDuW5JES
「沒關係，那是本能。」510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXImcZx2xlJ
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNahdkHi7GC
「我們…呃，人類的本能？」510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEErU0zV98
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4Eleb8uTT
「是的，本能。『歸類』、『命名』、『階級』，樂此不疲。」510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit8KiyNq60
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVft8OhzkM
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAX0ITwSbV
我注意到牠從未提起「你們」。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6OMgLFDBz
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEzVmTFyPA
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnLLpK8omi
「我無意使妳內疚。」510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtgCV3s4lv
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfys1czXvU
「………」來不及啦，我覺得丟臉死了。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCockY4xSD
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIpGVolY2D
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42PyOYLDJJ
「可以幫我調一下領結嗎？」510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbI9jHoUsX
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRMhkeK9Ow
原來花豹是會笑的。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzuLDirZC2
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNokNZxKxAl
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbyPeGueli
我幫牠調整了領結，紳士的點了頭道謝後，牠就走了，說下次遇見的時候再聊。510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqREc06Po1
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PeItOqr1l
「畢竟這是個迫切需要哀悼的城市。」
