\u2014 \u0218tiu c\u0103 a\u021bi g\u0103sit cercelul\u2026 \u0219i bile\u021belul, \u2014 a spus Clara, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103-mi lase timp s\u0103 pun \u00eentreb\u0103ri. \u2014 Nu e ceea ce crede\u021bi. Dar… cred c\u0103 e momentul s\u0103 vorbim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am a\u0219ezat \u00een fa\u021ba ei, pu\u021bin surprins\u0103 de tonul ei \u2014 nu arogant, nu defensiv, ci aproape… bl\u00e2nd. \u0218i-a sprijinit coatele de mas\u0103 \u0219i a continuat:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 De ceva timp, Thomas p\u0103rea tot mai obosit. M-am \u00eengrijorat c\u0103 se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103 ceva, dar nu voia s\u0103 vorbeasc\u0103. Eu \u00eens\u0103 nu sunt genul care \u00eenchide ochii. A\u0219a c\u0103 am \u00eenceput s\u0103 cercetez \u0219i am descoperit… c\u0103 se \u00eent\u00e2lnea cu o femeie. Nu \u00eentr-un mod romantic. Doar discu\u021bii. Se vedeau din c\u00e2nd \u00een c\u00e2nd \u00een parc. \u00cei spunea c\u0103 e confuz, c\u0103 nu \u0219tie cum s\u0103 gestioneze presiunile, a\u0219tept\u0103rile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Inima mi-a \u00eenceput s\u0103 bat\u0103 tare. Nu de furie \u2014 de team\u0103. Nu \u0219tiam ce se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103 cu adev\u0103rat, dar sim\u021beam c\u0103 e important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu i-am spus c\u0103 \u0219tiu. \u00cen schimb… m-am dus la ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 La ea? \u2014 am \u00eentrebat, deja complet nedumerit\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Da. Femeia care a l\u0103sat bile\u021belul. \u0218i \u0219ti\u021bi ce am aflat? C\u0103 e psihoterapeut. Thomas a \u00eenceput s\u0103 mearg\u0103 la ea la recomandarea unui prieten. N-a spus nim\u0103nui, pentru c\u0103 nu voia s\u0103 fie comp\u0103timit sau considerat slab. Iar eu… m-am sim\u021bit o proast\u0103. \u00cen mintea mea se n\u0103scuse o dram\u0103. Dar el doar c\u0103uta ajutor, ca s\u0103 devin\u0103 un so\u021b mai bun. \u0218i un fiu mai bun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Clara a z\u00e2mbit, u\u0219or obosit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Biletul era de la ea. \u201eK.\u201d \u2014 de la Cristina. Eu am rugat-o s\u0103 continue sesiunile cu el. Dar de data asta \u2014 cu \u0219tirea mea. Pentru c\u0103 atunci c\u00e2nd iube\u0219ti pe cineva cu adev\u0103rat, nu te sperii de sl\u0103biciunile lui. \u00cel aju\u021bi s\u0103 se ridice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am t\u0103cut mult. G\u00e2ndurile se ciocneau \u00een capul meu. Iar Clara, cea pe care o considerasem superficial\u0103 \u0219i rece, st\u0103tea \u00een fa\u021ba mea \u0219i-mi vorbea cu o sinceritate pentru care nu eram preg\u0103tit\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u0218i de ce-mi spui toate astea? \u2014 am \u0219optit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 \u00eemi pas\u0103. \u0218i de el. \u0218i de dumneavoastr\u0103. \u0218i pentru c\u0103, dac\u0103 \u00eentr-o zi vom avea un copil, vreau s\u0103 avem o familie \u2014 nu doar pe h\u00e2rtie, ci una adev\u0103rat\u0103. Cu o bunic\u0103 ce ne prive\u0219te cu drag, nu cu suspiciune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mi s-au umplut ochii de lacrimi. Nu pentru c\u0103 m-a emo\u021bionat \u2014 ci pentru c\u0103 am realizat c\u0103 gre\u0219isem. Judecasem doar dup\u0103 aparen\u021be, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 o cunosc cu adev\u0103rat. Clara nu era o du\u0219manc\u0103. Doar era diferit\u0103 de mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u00cemi pare r\u0103u, \u2014 am spus. \u2014 Am crezut c\u0103 te cunosc. Dar se pare c\u0103 m-am \u00een\u0219elat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ea a z\u00e2mbit \u2014 cald, sincer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Cu to\u021bii gre\u0219im. Important e dac\u0103 vrem s\u0103 ne repar\u0103m gre\u0219elile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Din acea zi totul a \u00eenceput s\u0103 se schimbe. Treptat. Mai \u00eent\u00e2i cu lucruri mici \u2014 plimb\u0103ri \u00eempreun\u0103, discu\u021bii la o cea\u0219c\u0103 de ceai. Apoi \u2014 cu gesturi. Clara m-a invitat s\u0103 aleg materialul pentru perdelele din camera copilului, c\u00e2nd a r\u0103mas \u00eens\u0103rcinat\u0103. Eu i-am propus s\u0103-i ar\u0103t c\u00e2teva re\u021bete vechi din familie. Ea le preg\u0103tea \u00een stilul ei \u2014 modern, elegant. Dar cu respect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iar c\u00e2nd s-a n\u0103scut micu\u021bul Matei, m-a sunat prima. Cu vocea tremur\u00e2nd\u0103. \u0218i mi-a spus:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Am n\u0103scut. Totul e bine. \u0218i are ochii dumneavoastr\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Acum, c\u00e2nd st\u0103 pe genunchii mei, cu ochii aceia care m\u0103 privesc cum o f\u0103cea odat\u0103 Thomas, z\u00e2mbesc. \u0218i m\u0103 g\u00e2ndesc \u2014 poate via\u021ba \u0219tie mai bine dec\u00e2t noi cu cine s\u0103 ne uneasc\u0103. Clara nu e perfect\u0103. Nici eu nu sunt. Dar \u00eel iube\u0219te pe fiul meu. \u00cel iube\u0219te pe nepotul meu. \u0218i acum… m\u0103 iube\u0219te \u0219i pe mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
