\u2014 Acum explic\u0103-mi totul, de la \u00eenceput\u2026 \u2014 spuse Alexandru, cu vocea sc\u0103zut\u0103, dar ferm\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fata nu r\u0103spunse imediat. Privea fix prin parbriz, de parc\u0103 cuvintele \u00eei fuseser\u0103 \u00eenghe\u021bate \u00een g\u00e2t. Ochii \u00eei tremurau u\u0219or, iar m\u00e2inile i se str\u00e2ngeau pe marginea scaunului. Dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva clipe de lini\u0219te ap\u0103s\u0103toare, \u00ee\u0219i \u00eentoarse u\u0219or capul spre el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 M\u0103 numesc Clara. Timp de un an am fost \u021binut\u0103 prizonier\u0103\u2026 \u00eentr-un fel de cas\u0103 izolat\u0103, l\u00e2ng\u0103 p\u0103dure. Oficial era o \u201eclinic\u0103 de reabilitare privat\u0103\u201d, dar \u00een realitate era un co\u0219mar. Ne supravegheau, ne controlau, ne\u2026 drogau. Pe unele fete le trimiteau \u201ela clien\u021bi\u201d \u00een ora\u0219. Pe mine voiau s\u0103 m\u0103 duc\u0103 \u00een afara \u021b\u0103rii. Am reu\u0219it s\u0103 fug azi-noapte, dup\u0103 ce o alt\u0103 fat\u0103 mi-a dat cheia de la una din camere. A r\u0103mas \u00een urm\u0103\u2026 Nu \u0219tiu ce s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat cu ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alexandru conducea f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 spun\u0103 nimic. Se uita drept \u00eenainte, dar era vizibil tensionat. \u00centr-un mod straniu, crezuse fata \u00eenc\u0103 din primul moment. Poate era felul \u00een care i se fr\u00e2ngea vocea. Sau ochii ei, care nu c\u0103utau compasiune, ci doar un col\u021b de libertate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ai fost la poli\u021bie? \u2014 \u00eentreb\u0103 el dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Cum? A\u0219a, din p\u0103dure direct la poli\u021bie? Nu aveam nimic la mine, nici acte, nici telefon. Am mers ore \u00eentregi pe jos, am dormit printre copaci. Apoi am ie\u0219it pe \u0219osea. Am sperat\u2026 c\u0103 cineva ca tine o s\u0103 opreasc\u0103. Dac\u0103 ajung din nou pe m\u00e2na lor\u2026 nu \u0219tiu dac\u0103 o s\u0103 mai scap vreodat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alexandru \u00eencetini. Ma\u0219ina mergea acum pe un drum secundar, aproape de o benzin\u0103rie. El trase pe dreapta \u0219i se \u00eentoarse spre Clara.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ascult\u0103-m\u0103 bine. Te duc la un loc sigur. Cunosc pe cineva \u2014 o femeie care conduce un ONG pentru victimele traficului. Nu o s\u0103 te \u00eentrebe nimic p\u00e2n\u0103 nu e\u0219ti preg\u0103tit\u0103 s\u0103 vorbe\u0219ti. Apoi mergem la poli\u021bie, dar \u00eenso\u021bi\u021bi. Ai \u00eencredere \u00een mine?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Clara \u00eel privi lung. Apoi, pentru prima oar\u0103, d\u0103du din cap afirmativ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Au ajuns \u00een ora\u0219 dup\u0103 mai bine de o or\u0103. Alexandru o duse pe Clara \u00eentr-un apartament mic, cald, \u00eentr-un cartier lini\u0219tit. O a\u0219tepta o doamn\u0103 de v\u00e2rst\u0103 mijlocie, cu un z\u00e2mbet bl\u00e2nd \u0219i ochi care spuneau \u201eE\u0219ti \u00een siguran\u021b\u0103 acum\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Clara petrecu acolo dou\u0103 zile. Dormi ad\u00e2nc, f\u0103r\u0103 co\u0219maruri, pentru prima dat\u0103 \u00een multe luni. M\u00e2nc\u0103 bine, vorbi pu\u021bin. \u00cen a treia zi, accept\u0103 s\u0103 mearg\u0103 la poli\u021bie. Alexandru o \u00eenso\u021bi, la cererea ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Declara\u021bia pe care o d\u0103du zgudui sec\u021bia. Ofi\u021berii au deschis imediat o anchet\u0103. A doua zi, clinica fals\u0103 a fost perchezi\u021bionat\u0103. Ceea ce au g\u0103sit acolo\u2026 ie\u0219i \u00een pres\u0103. Zeci de fete, majoritatea f\u0103r\u0103 acte, unele minore. Substan\u021be, camere de supraveghere, jurnale cu nume \u0219i sume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Clara deveni martor-cheie. Alexandru, de\u0219i om de afaceri f\u0103r\u0103 leg\u0103tur\u0103 cu sistemul juridic, \u00ee\u0219i asum\u0103 rolul de protector. \u00cei angaj\u0103 un avocat, o sprijini financiar \u0219i emo\u021bional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Timpul trecea. Procesul a durat luni. A fost greu, obositor, plin de amenin\u021b\u0103ri \u0219i presiuni. Dar la final, re\u021beaua a fost destructurat\u0103. Liderii au primit ani grei de \u00eenchisoare. Iar fetele\u2026 au primit o \u0219ans\u0103 nou\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Un an mai t\u00e2rziu, \u00eentr-o diminea\u021b\u0103 lini\u0219tit\u0103 de prim\u0103var\u0103, Clara b\u0103tea la u\u0219a biroului lui Alexandru. Purta haine simple, dar elegante. P\u0103rul \u00eei era prins la spate. \u00cen m\u00e2ini \u021binea o map\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Bun\u0103, Alexandru. \u0218tiu c\u0103 ai \u00eent\u00e2lniri azi\u2026 dar voiam s\u0103 \u00ee\u021bi spun c\u0103 am intrat la facultate. Drept. La buget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
El se ridic\u0103 din scaun, uimit, apoi z\u00e2mbi larg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u0218i asta? \u2014 \u00eentreb\u0103, ar\u0103t\u00e2nd spre mapa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Planul meu. Vreau s\u0103 deschid un centru de consiliere. Pentru fetele care trec prin ce-am trecut eu. Nu doar ad\u0103post \u2014 loc de vindecare. Am deja c\u00e2\u021biva voluntari. Mai am nevoie doar de un sprijin legal\u2026 \u0219i de cineva care s\u0103 cread\u0103 \u00een mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u00cel ai, Clara. \u00centotdeauna l-ai avut, \u2014 spuse el, str\u00e2ng\u00e2ndu-i m\u00e2na.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i \u00een acel moment, \u00een ochii ei nu mai era team\u0103. Doar lumin\u0103. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
