Am r\u0103mas pe scaun cu m\u00e2inile reci pe cea\u0219ca de cafea, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 mai simt gustul. Cuvintele lui \u00eemi r\u0103sunau \u00een cap: \u201e\u00centreab\u0103-\u021bi familia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Familia mea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu avea sens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
P\u0103rin\u021bii mei erau oameni simpli, lini\u0219ti\u021bi. Tata pensionar, mama gospodin\u0103. Fratele meu, Andrei, lucra \u00een construc\u021bii. Niciunul nu ar fi fost \u00een stare de ceva\u2026 murdar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sau a\u0219a credeam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am plecat direct spre casa p\u0103rin\u021bilor. N-am sunat \u00eenainte. Am intrat pe poart\u0103 cu inima bubuind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mama era \u00een curte, \u00eentindea rufe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Mariana? Ce-i cu tine? Pari speriat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Unde e tata?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014\u00cen cas\u0103\u2026 dar ce s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am trecut pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 r\u0103spund. L-am g\u0103sit pe tata la mas\u0103, citind un ziar vechi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Trebuie s\u0103 vorbim. Acum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a uitat la mine \u0219i, pentru o clip\u0103, am v\u0103zut ceva ciudat \u00een ochii lui. Nu surpriz\u0103. Fric\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Ce s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014L-am v\u0103zut pe Robert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
T\u0103cere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
O t\u0103cere grea, ap\u0103s\u0103toare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Pe strad\u0103. Adun\u00e2nd doze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mama a intrat \u00een cas\u0103 fix atunci \u0219i a sc\u0103pat un prosop din m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Nu se poate\u2026 \u2014a \u0219optit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Ba se poate. \u0218i \u0219ti\u021bi ceva? Mi-a spus s\u0103 v\u0103 \u00eentreb pe voi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tata s-a ridicat \u00eencet. A oftat ad\u00e2nc \u0219i s-a a\u0219ezat la loc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Nu trebuia s\u0103 afli a\u0219a\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Inima mi-a urcat \u00een g\u00e2t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014S\u0103 aflu ce?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mama a \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103 \u00een t\u0103cere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Spune-i, Gheorghe\u2026 \u2014a murmurat ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tata \u0219i-a frecat fruntea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014\u021aii minte c\u00e2nd s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat\u2026 problema cu firma?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eenghe\u021bat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cum s\u0103 nu \u021bin minte?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cu c\u00e2\u021biva ani \u00een urm\u0103, firma unde lucram fusese implicat\u0103 \u00eentr-un scandal financiar. Disp\u0103ruser\u0103 ni\u0219te bani. Mul\u021bi bani. Eu fusesem contabil\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i totul fusese pus pe seama unei \u201eerori\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Nu\u2026 \u2014am \u0219optit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Nu a fost o eroare, Mariana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am sprijinit de mas\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Atunci ce a fost?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tata a \u00eenchis ochii o clip\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Fratele t\u0103u.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lumea s-a oprit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Andrei a luat banii. Avea datorii. Mari. C\u0103m\u0103tari.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Respira\u021bia mi s-a t\u0103iat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014\u0218i\u2026 Robert?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Robert a aflat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lacrimile mi-au \u00eenceput s\u0103 curg\u0103 f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 le pot opri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014\u0218i?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014\u0218i a spus c\u0103 o s\u0103 te acuze pe tine. Oficial. Ca s\u0103 nu ajung\u0103 Andrei la \u00eenchisoare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am sim\u021bit cum mi se rupe ceva \u00een piept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Nu\u2026 nu are sens\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014A spus c\u0103 tu o s\u0103 \u00ee\u021bi revii. C\u0103 e\u0219ti puternic\u0103. Dar c\u0103 Andrei\u2026 nu ar fi rezistat \u00een pu\u0219c\u0103rie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014\u0218i voi\u2026 a\u021bi acceptat?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mama a izbucnit \u00een pl\u00e2ns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Ne-a implorat s\u0103 nu-\u021bi spunem\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014A semnat el tot. A pierdut slujba. Reputa\u021bia. Tot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mi-am dus m\u00e2inile la gur\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014\u0218i eu\u2026 eu l-am p\u0103r\u0103sit\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
T\u0103cere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Greu de dus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014L-am acuzat. L-am f\u0103cut mincinos. Am divor\u021bat de el\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Genunchii mi-au cedat \u0219i m-am l\u0103sat pe scaun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014\u0218i el\u2026 a ajuns pe strad\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tata a dat din cap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Nu a vrut ajutor. De la nimeni.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am ridicat brusc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Unde e Andrei?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014La munc\u0103\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am ie\u0219it din cas\u0103 f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 mai spun nimic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
L-am g\u0103sit pe Andrei la \u0219antier. C\u00e2nd m-a v\u0103zut, a \u0219tiut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Ai aflat\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu am spus nimic. L-am p\u0103lmuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Pentru el! Pentru omul care \u0219i-a distrus via\u021ba pentru tine!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Andrei a \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103 ca un copil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014\u00cemi pare r\u0103u\u2026 \u00eemi pare r\u0103u\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar nu mai conta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen acea sear\u0103, m-am dus la ad\u0103post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
L-am g\u0103sit pe Robert \u00een curte, st\u00e2nd pe o banc\u0103, cu sacul l\u00e2ng\u0103 el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u00e2nd m-a v\u0103zut, a vrut s\u0103 plece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Stai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vocea mea tremura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014\u0218tiu tot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a oprit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Nu trebuia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014De ce ai f\u0103cut asta?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a uitat \u00een jos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Pentru c\u0103 te iubeam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014\u0218i acum?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A ridicat din umeri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Acum\u2026 e t\u00e2rziu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am apropiat \u0219i i-am luat m\u00e2na.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Nu e.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a uitat la mine, ne\u00eencrez\u0103tor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Te rog. Las\u0103-m\u0103 s\u0103 repar ce am stricat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103, dup\u0103 mult timp, ochii lui au str\u0103lucit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu a fost u\u0219or.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar l-am ajutat s\u0103 se ridice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A primit din nou un loc de munc\u0103. Nu ca profesor, dar \u00eentr-o bibliotec\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cencet, a \u00eenceput s\u0103 z\u00e2mbeasc\u0103 din nou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iar eu\u2026 am \u00eenv\u0103\u021bat c\u0103 uneori, adev\u0103ratele sacrificii nu se v\u0103d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar schimb\u0103 tot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
