Rare\u0219, un b\u0103iat de zece ani, mergea zglobiu spre cas\u0103, cu ghiozdanul at\u00e2rn\u00e2nd \u00eentr-o parte \u0219i obrajii \u00eembujora\u021bi de v\u00e2ntul proasp\u0103t de prim\u0103var\u0103. Se oprise pe malul r\u00e2ului, acolo unde ultimele petice de ghea\u021b\u0103 se topeau gr\u0103bite sub soarele cald, iar iarba crud\u0103 \u00eencepuse s\u0103 se ridice m\u00e2ndr\u0103 din p\u0103m\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rare\u0219 s\u0103rea peste pietre \u0219i se juca cu be\u021be, imit\u00e2nd b\u0103t\u0103lii \u00eentre cavaleri, c\u00e2nd deodat\u0103 z\u0103ri ceva ce-i schimb\u0103 starea de spirit. Pe marginea apei, o femeie \u00een v\u00e2rst\u0103, ud\u0103 din cap p\u00e2n\u0103-n picioare, tremura necontrolat \u0219i pl\u00e2ngea \u00een hohote. L\u00e2ng\u0103 ea z\u0103cea un teanc de haine ude, ca \u0219i cum cineva le aruncase acolo \u00een grab\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Bun\u0103 ziua, m\u0103tu\u0219\u0103! Sunte\u021bi bine? a \u00eentrebat Rare\u0219, apropiindu-se cu pruden\u021b\u0103. A\u021bi c\u0103zut \u00een ap\u0103?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Femeia, cu chipul br\u0103zdat de lacrimi \u0219i fa\u021ba palid\u0103, a ridicat cu greu privirea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Of, copile\u2026 nu m-am \u00eempiedicat\u2026 cineva m-a \u00eempins, a rostit ea printre suspine. Nu-mi vine s\u0103 cred c\u00e2t\u0103 r\u0103utate poate fi pe lume. M\u0103 \u00eendreptam spre sat, c\u0103utam pu\u021bin\u0103 c\u0103ldur\u0103, dar mi s-a f\u0103cut r\u0103u la un moment dat, m-au apucat ni\u0219te crampe \u0219i nu mai puteam respira sau face vreun pas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rare\u0219 a sim\u021bit un nod \u00een g\u00e2t \u0219i o team\u0103 ciudat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Sta\u021bi aici, m\u0103tu\u0219\u0103, m\u0103 \u00eentorc imediat! a strigat el \u0219i a luat-o la fug\u0103 spre sat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ajuns acas\u0103, a dat buzna pe u\u0219\u0103, de parc\u0103 lumea urma s\u0103 se pr\u0103bu\u0219easc\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Mam\u0103! E o b\u0103tr\u00e2n\u0103 jos, l\u00e2ng\u0103 r\u00e2u! E ud\u0103 leoarc\u0103 \u0219i zice c\u0103 a \u00eempins-o cineva \u00een ap\u0103. Nu poate merge \u0219i tremur\u0103 toat\u0103. Trebuie s\u0103-i ducem ceva cald!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mama lui, Maria, o femeie bl\u00e2nd\u0103 \u0219i aprig\u0103 \u00een acela\u0219i timp, a \u00een\u021beles pe loc gravitatea situa\u021biei. A scos repede o blan\u0103 groas\u0103 de oaie, un palton vechi al so\u021bului decedat \u0219i c\u00e2teva haine c\u0103lduroase, le-a pus \u00een c\u0103ruciorul cu patru ro\u021bi pe care-l folosea c\u00e2nd ducea lapte la pia\u021b\u0103, \u0219i a pornit \u00eempreun\u0103 cu Rare\u0219 spre r\u00e2u.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u00e2nd au ajuns, femeia era ghemuit\u0103 pe iarb\u0103, tremur\u00e2nd ca o frunz\u0103 \u00een b\u0103taia v\u00e2ntului. Maria a \u00eenf\u0103\u0219urat-o \u00een hainele groase, a ridicat-o cu grij\u0103 \u00een c\u0103rucior \u0219i a dus-o acas\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Acolo, i-au f\u0103cut o baie fierbinte, au a\u0219ezat-o \u00een pat cu o sticl\u0103 cu ap\u0103 cald\u0103 la picioare \u0219i i-au dat un ceai aromat cu miere. C\u00e2nd femeia s-a mai lini\u0219tit, Maria s-a a\u0219ezat pe marginea patului, iar Rare\u0219 s-a dus s\u0103 se joace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Cum v\u0103 cheam\u0103, m\u0103tu\u0219\u0103? a \u00eentrebat Maria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ana Petrescu, a r\u0103spuns femeia, cu voce slab\u0103, dar recunosc\u0103toare. Am locuit cu fiul meu cel mare. Era bine c\u00e2t timp era nevasta lui, Ioana, \u00een via\u021b\u0103. O femeie bun\u0103, grijulie, care avea grij\u0103 de mine \u0219i de toate cele prin cas\u0103. Dar, dup\u0103 ce s-a \u00eemboln\u0103vit \u0219i a fost mutat\u0103 la azil, el s-a rec\u0103s\u0103torit cu o t\u00e2n\u0103r\u0103 pe nume Andreea. Aceasta m-a dispre\u021buit din prima clip\u0103. M\u0103 trata ca pe un sac de gunoi. Nu-i p\u0103sa dac\u0103 \u00eemi lu\u0103m pastilele sau dac\u0103 aveam ce m\u00e2nca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ana a oftat greu, povestind cum Andreea o evita pe c\u00e2t posibil \u0219i \u00eei f\u0103cea via\u021ba grea. \u00centr-o zi, dup\u0103 multe insisten\u021be, a acceptat s-o duc\u0103 pe Ana la fiul cel mic, \u00een satul vecin. Dar \u00een loc s\u0103 o ajute, i-a dat doar o pung\u0103 de h\u00e2rtie \u00een loc de bagaj \u0219i, ajuns\u0103 la pod, a oprit ma\u0219ina, a deschis u\u0219a \u0219i a \u00eempins-o \u00een r\u00e2u.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maria a dus m\u00e2na la gur\u0103, \u00eensp\u0103im\u00e2ntat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Trebuie s\u0103 chem\u0103m poli\u021bia!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu\u2026 te rog\u2026 n-are rost, a spus Ana cu triste\u021be \u00een ochi. Nu vreau scandal. Nu mai am ani de tras cu umbl\u0103turi pe la anchete. Tot ce-mi doresc e s\u0103 ajung la fiul meu cel mic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maria i-a luat m\u00e2na \u00een palm\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 R\u0103m\u00e2ne\u021bi cu noi c\u00e2teva zile, p\u00e2n\u0103 s\u00e2mb\u0103t\u0103. Apoi v\u0103 ducem la el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pe m\u0103sur\u0103 ce zilele au trecut, Ana s-a \u00eentremat. A \u00eenceput s\u0103-l ajute pe Rare\u0219 la teme \u0219i i-a povestit c\u0103 fusese profesoar\u0103 de limba rom\u00e2n\u0103 la \u0219coala din Lozova.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u00e2teva zile mai t\u00e2rziu, la serbarea \u0219colii, cu ocazia anivers\u0103rii de zece ani de la \u00eenfiin\u021bare, Maria a mers cu Ana la festivitate. Lume mult\u0103, muzic\u0103, baloane colorate \u0219i pr\u0103jituri de cas\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La un moment dat, un jeep s-a oprit \u00een fa\u021ba \u0219colii, iar din el a cobor\u00e2t un b\u0103rbat \u00eenalt, cu p\u0103rul c\u0103runt pe la t\u00e2mple. Directorul l-a recunoscut imediat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ast\u0103zi \u00eel avem printre noi pe domnul Victor Petrescu, a anun\u021bat el \u00een microfon, iar to\u021bi s-au ridicat \u00een picioare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u00e2nd Victor a z\u0103rit-o pe Ana, s-a schimbat la fa\u021b\u0103. S-a repezit la ea, a str\u00e2ns-o \u00een bra\u021be cu ochii \u00een lacrimi \u0219i a urcat-o pe scen\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Este mama mea, doamna Ana Petrescu, cea care m-a \u00eenv\u0103\u021bat s\u0103 fiu om! a spus el r\u0103spicat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A doua zi, Victor a ap\u0103rut la poarta Mariei cu un buchet de flori \u0219i o invita\u021bie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Bun\u0103 diminea\u021ba, Maria. Eu \u0219i mama vrem s\u0103 v\u0103 mul\u021bumim. A\u021bi salvat-o. V\u0103 invit\u0103m pe tine \u0219i pe Rare\u0219 la cin\u0103 \u00een seara asta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Seara, Victor a venit cu o ma\u0219in\u0103 de muls nou-nou\u021b\u0103, fructe, dulciuri pentru Rare\u0219 \u0219i\u2026 o biciclet\u0103 str\u0103lucitoare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 E chiar a mea? Pentru totdeauna? a \u00eentrebat Rare\u0219 cu ochii mari.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 A ta, pu\u0219tiule, a spus Victor z\u00e2mbind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De atunci, Victor a \u00eenceput s\u0103 viziteze des. C\u00e2nd venea, se oprea ba la grajd, ba la f\u00e2nt\u00e2n\u0103, mai ajuta la c\u00e2te ceva, iar Ana preg\u0103tea mereu ceva gustos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La sf\u00e2r\u0219itul lui iunie, Victor \u0219i Maria s-au c\u0103s\u0103torit. Au v\u00e2ndut casa din ora\u0219, s-au mutat \u00een Lozova, iar Rare\u0219 a fost transferat la \u0219coala de acolo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen vara urm\u0103toare, Victor \u0219i-a serbat ziua de na\u0219tere. Maria \u00eens\u0103 nu a putut participa \u2014 n\u0103scuse cu c\u00e2teva zile \u00eenainte un b\u0103ie\u021bel zdrav\u0103n, pe micu\u021bul \u0218tefan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De atunci, via\u021ba \u0219i-a g\u0103sit iar rostul.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
