Am intrat \u00eentr-o flor\u0103rie ca s\u0103 cump\u0103r buchete pentru so\u021bia \u0219i fiica mea. Tocmai alesesem unul, c\u00e2nd am observat un b\u0103tr\u00e2n la intrare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Un pardesiu demodat, pantaloni c\u0103lca\u021bi la dung\u0103, pantofi, sub pardesiu o c\u0103ma\u0219\u0103 simpl\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu ar\u0103ta ca un om f\u0103r\u0103 ad\u0103post. Era doar s\u0103rac. Dar \u00een acela\u0219i timp, uimitor de \u00eengrijit \u0219i demn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
O v\u00e2nz\u0103toare t\u00e2n\u0103r\u0103 s-a apropiat de b\u0103tr\u00e2n. Nici m\u0103car nu s-a uitat la el, a \u00eenceput imediat s\u0103 vorbeasc\u0103:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ce stai aici, mo\u0219ule? \u00cei \u00eencurci pe clien\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2nul nu a protestat, ci a spus \u00eencet:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ierta\u021bi-m\u0103, domni\u0219oar\u0103\u2026 C\u00e2t cost\u0103 o crengu\u021b\u0103 de mimoz\u0103?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
V\u00e2nz\u0103toarea, obraznic\u0103, i-a v\u00e2ndut o crengu\u021b\u0103 rupt\u0103 de mimoz\u0103: nu m-am putut ab\u021bine \u0219i am decis s\u0103-l ajut pe b\u0103tr\u00e2n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fata a spus iritat\u0103:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ce, ai \u00eennebunit? V\u0103d bine c\u0103 n-ai bani. De ce mai \u00eentrebi?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2nul a scos din buzunar trei bancnote mototolite de c\u00e2te zece euro \u0219i a \u00eentrebat cu grij\u0103:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Poate g\u0103si\u021bi ceva pentru treizeci?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
V\u00e2nz\u0103toarea s-a uitat la bani, a z\u00e2mbit batjocoritor, a scos din co\u0219 un fir de mimoz\u0103 aproape uscat \u2014 rupt, ofilit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Uite, ia-l. \u0218i pleac\u0103 de aici.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2nul a luat cu grij\u0103 crengu\u021ba, apoi a \u00eencercat g\u00e2nditor s\u0103 o \u00eendrepte. \u00cen acel moment am observat cum o lacrim\u0103 i-a cobor\u00e2t pe obraz, iar pe chipul lui s-a citit o asemenea disperare, \u00eenc\u00e2t m-a durut sufletul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mi s-a p\u0103rut nedrept ce i s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat acestui b\u0103tr\u00e2n, a\u0219a c\u0103 am decis s\u0103-i dau o lec\u021bie acelei v\u00e2nz\u0103toare obraznice \u0219i lipsite de bun-sim\u021b.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
