AM FOST DIRECTOR DE \u0218COAL\u0102 DE ANI DE ZILE, \u0218I NU AM V\u0102ZUT NICIODAT\u0102 A\u0218A CEVA!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u00e2nd o mam\u0103 r\u0103sf\u0103\u021bat\u0103 p\u0103trunde cu for\u021ba \u00een biroul directorului Emma Ionescu cu o list\u0103 de cerin\u021be, pare doar o alt\u0103 b\u0103t\u0103lie \u00een r\u0103zboiul ei din greu pentru dreptate. Dar un comentariu crud \u00een coridor \u0219i ceasul uzat al unui \u00eengrijitor o fac \u00een cur\u00e2nd s\u0103 \u00ee\u0219i pun\u0103 la \u00eendoial\u0103 totul \u2014 inclusiv propria integritate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Luminile fluorescente b\u00e2z\u00e2iau slab deasupra, p\u00e2lp\u00e2ind ocazional, potrivindu-se cu pulsul constant care \u00eenflorea \u00een spatele ochilor Emmei Ionescu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Durerea de cap crescuse din zorii zilei \u2014 o durere lent\u0103, persistent\u0103, reflect\u00e2nd greutatea responsabilit\u0103\u021bilor ei. Gr\u0103mezile de h\u00e2rtii de pe birou i se p\u0103reau ca o a doua piele.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bugete insuficiente. Planuri de lec\u021bii pe care nu avea timp s\u0103 le revizuiasc\u0103. Rapoarte ale profesorilor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mandate de la biroul districtual. Fiecare foaie de h\u00e2rtie ad\u0103uga o alt\u0103 c\u0103r\u0103mid\u0103 la \u00eenchisoarea t\u0103cut\u0103, invizibil\u0103 \u00een care \u0219edea \u00een fiecare zi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i-a frecat t\u00e2mplele cu dou\u0103 degete, eliber\u00e2nd un oftat abia audibil. Undeva afar\u0103, un clopo\u021bel suna, distant \u0219i ascu\u021bit, dar zgomotul din biroul ei r\u0103m\u00e2nea moale \u0219i nemi\u0219cat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi, o b\u0103taie. Ascu\u021bit\u0103. Precis\u0103. A spart t\u0103cerea \u00een dou\u0103. \u00cenainte ca Emma s\u0103 poat\u0103 r\u0103spunde, u\u0219a a sc\u00e2r\u021b\u00e2it deschiz\u00e2ndu-se.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eBun\u0103 diminea\u021ba, directoare Ionescu.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vocea aceea, neted\u0103 ca siropul rece, nu putea apar\u021bine nim\u0103nui altcuiva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Linda C\u0103rlescu, pre\u0219edinta Asocia\u021biei P\u0103rin\u021bi-Profesori, a intrat de parc\u0103 ar fi de\u021binut chiar pere\u021bii din jurul ei. Tocurile ei loveau podeaua ca ni\u0219te semne de punctua\u021bie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Purta un palton alb de iarn\u0103 cu nasturi aurii \u0219i o po\u0219et\u0103 de piele care probabil costa mai mult dec\u00e2t cheltuia \u0219coala pe c\u0103r\u021bi noi pentru bibliotec\u0103 pe tot anul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Linda a pus un dosar gros pe biroul Emmei de parc\u0103 ar fi fost o cita\u021bie judec\u0103toreasc\u0103. A z\u00e2mbit, dar nu i-a ajuns la ochi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eAm adus o alt\u0103 list\u0103,\u201d a spus, pronun\u021b\u00e2nd cu grij\u0103 fiecare cuv\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eAcestea sunt \u00eengrijor\u0103ri de la mai multe familii. \u00cen principal de la acelea, \u0219tii, care se a\u0219teapt\u0103 la\u2026 un anumit standard. Av\u00e2nd \u00een vedere cine sunt copiii lor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma s-a \u00eendrept \u00een scaun, oboseala infiltr\u00e2ndu-se \u00een oasele ei. A clipit o dat\u0103 \u0219i a dat din cap politicos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201e\u00cen\u021beleg. To\u021bi vrem ce e mai bun pentru elevii no\u0219tri. Dar scopul nostru este educa\u021bia egal\u0103 pentru to\u021bi, nu doar pentru c\u00e2\u021biva ale\u0219i.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gura Lindei s-a str\u00e2ns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eAceea e o filozofie dep\u0103\u0219it\u0103, Emma. S\u0103 fim sinceri. Unii elevi vor schimba lumea. Al\u021bii vor doar sp\u0103la podelele. Ar trebui s\u0103 prioritizezi corespunz\u0103tor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma nu a tres\u0103rit. Vocea ei, calm\u0103 ca \u00eentotdeauna, avea o\u021bel dedesubt. \u201eTo\u021bi copiii no\u0219tri merit\u0103 acelea\u0219i oportunit\u0103\u021bi, Linda. F\u0103r\u0103 excep\u021bii.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ochii Lindei au sc\u00e2nteiat \u2014 reci \u0219i furio\u0219i. S-a \u00eentors brusc, paltonul ei v\u00e2j\u00e2ind \u00een spatele ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eO s\u0103 regre\u021bi c\u0103 ai fost dificil\u0103,\u201d a scr\u00e2\u0219nit, \u0219i u\u0219a s-a tr\u00e2ntit \u00een spatele ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma a r\u0103mas a\u0219ezat\u0103, uit\u00e2ndu-se la spa\u021biul gol pe care \u00eel l\u0103sase \u00een urm\u0103. \u00cencet, \u0219i-a cobor\u00e2t capul \u0219i \u0219i-a odihnit fruntea pe muntele de h\u00e2rtii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Corpul i s-a pr\u0103bu\u0219it. Pentru doar o secund\u0103, s-a l\u0103sat s\u0103 simt\u0103 \u2014 oboseala, t\u0103cerea \u0219i adev\u0103rul rece c\u0103 se sim\u021bea complet \u0219i total singur\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pantofii Emmei r\u0103sunau \u00eencet pe podeaua de linoleum \u00een timp ce mergea pe coridorul lung.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dulapurile de pe ambele p\u0103r\u021bi erau decolorate, ciobite \u0219i \u021buguiate \u2014 fiecare ca o cicatrice dintr-o amintire despre care nimeni nu vorbea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nume zg\u00e2riate \u00een metal, autocolante vechi care se desprindeau, unele \u00eenc\u0103 ar\u0103t\u00e2nd inimi \u0219i glume din interior de la elevi de mult absolvi\u021bi. \u0218coala era obosit\u0103, dar st\u0103tea ferm\u0103. Ca ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a oprit \u00een fa\u021ba unei u\u0219i mici la sf\u00e2r\u0219itul coridorului. Indicatorul de deasupra spunea \u00cengrijitor, de\u0219i literele erau abia vizibile sub straturile de praf \u0219i timp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
U\u0219a era \u021buguiat\u0103 \u00een centru, de parc\u0103 primise mai mult dec\u00e2t o lovitur\u0103 de la c\u0103rucioare sau copii negriji\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A strigat \u00eencet, aproape sper\u00e2nd s\u0103 nu fie auzit\u0103. Dar u\u0219a a sc\u00e2r\u021b\u00e2it \u0219i s-a deschis aproape imediat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eDirectoare Ionescu!\u201d a venit o voce vesel\u0103, cr\u0103pat\u0103 de v\u00e2rst\u0103 \u0219i c\u0103ldur\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Acolo era Ion, \u00eengrijitorul \u0219colii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
P\u0103rul lui c\u0103runt ie\u0219ea de sub o \u0219apc\u0103 veche, iar m\u00e2inile lui \u2014 \u00eenc\u00e2lcite \u0219i aspre ca r\u0103d\u0103cinile copacilor \u2014 \u021bineau o can\u0103 alb\u0103 ciobit\u0103. Fa\u021ba i s-a luminat chiar \u00eenainte s\u0103 spun\u0103 un cuv\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201ePare c\u0103 ai nevoie de ceaiul meu celebru prost,\u201d a z\u00e2mbit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma a z\u00e2mbit \u00eenapoi \u2014 primul z\u00e2mbet sincer pe care \u00eel sim\u021bise toat\u0103 ziua. \u201eDoar dac\u0103 e \u00eenc\u0103 f\u0103cut cu ceainicul acela ruginit al t\u0103u.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A chicotit, un sunet uscat, moale. \u201eE acela\u0219i. \u00cenc\u0103 n-a otr\u0103vit pe nimeni.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A gesticulat s\u0103 intre. Camera era mic\u0103 \u0219i aglomerat\u0103 dar cald\u0103. Mirosea a praf \u0219i ment\u0103, bocanci vechi \u0219i ceva dulce pe care nu \u00eel putea numi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Un radio mic b\u00e2z\u00e2ia \u00eencet \u00een fundal, red\u00e2nd muzic\u0103 country din alt\u0103 decad\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ceainicul st\u0103tea pe o plit\u0103 electric\u0103 \u00eentr-un col\u021b, \u0219i Ion s-a apropiat de el, turn\u00e2nd ap\u0103 cu m\u00e2ini lente, ferme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma s-a a\u0219ezat la masa mic\u0103 de lemn, leg\u0103n\u00e2nd-o u\u0219or sub coate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Era ceva reconfortant \u00een spa\u021biul acela. F\u0103r\u0103 presiune. F\u0103r\u0103 a\u0219tept\u0103ri. Doar b\u00e2z\u00e2itul radioului \u0219i mirosul de piele veche.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eZi grea?\u201d a \u00eentrebat Ion, scufund\u00e2nd un plicule\u021b de ceai \u00een cana ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eAn greu,\u201d a r\u0103spuns ea, eliber\u00e2nd un oftat pe care nu \u0219i-a dat seama c\u0103 \u00eel \u021binea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A \u00eentins cana fumeg\u00e2nd\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eC\u00e2nd am \u00eenceput aici, \u021bevile \u00eenghe\u021bau \u00een fiecare iarn\u0103, acoperi\u0219ul picura cu fiecare furtun\u0103, \u0219i \u00eentr-un an un raton a n\u0103scut \u00een dulapul s\u0103lii de sport. Am trecut prin asta. \u0218i tu vei trece.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma a scos un r\u00e2s mic, degetele \u00eenf\u0103\u0219ur\u00e2ndu-se \u00een jurul c\u0103nii fierbin\u021bi. \u201eNu \u0219tiu ce a\u0219 face f\u0103r\u0103 aceste mici momente.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eEi bine, nu pleca f\u0103r\u0103 ele,\u201d a spus Ion, vocea lui moale ca o \u0219oapt\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Au stat \u00eempreun\u0103, sorbind \u00een t\u0103cere. Respir\u00e2nd. Pur \u0219i simplu exist\u00e2nd. Lumea exterioar\u0103 putea a\u0219tepta \u00eenc\u0103 c\u00e2teva minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar calmul nu a durat. C\u00e2nd au ie\u0219it \u00eenapoi \u00een coridor, voci tari au spart pacea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Un grup de b\u0103ie\u021bi st\u0103tea l\u00e2ng\u0103 f\u00e2nt\u00e2na cu ap\u0103. Unul dintre ei, Teodor, \u00eenv\u00e2rtea o minge de baschet pe deget. Z\u00e2mbetul i s-a l\u0103rgit c\u00e2nd a v\u0103zut-o pe Emma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eEi, ei,\u201d a spus tare. \u201eSe pare c\u0103 directoarea se antreneaz\u0103 pentru noua ei slujb\u0103. Sper c\u0103 e\u0219ti mai bun\u0103 cu mopul dec\u00e2t cu notele la mate.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma a \u00eenghe\u021bat. Pieptul i s-a str\u00e2ns, dar \u00eenainte s\u0103 poat\u0103 vorbi, Ion a f\u0103cut un pas \u00eenainte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eNu vorbe\u0219ti a\u0219a cu o doamn\u0103, fiule,\u201d a spus, calm dar ferm. \u201eMama ta ar fi trebuit s\u0103 te \u00eenve\u021be mai bine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ochii lui Teodor s-au \u00eengustat. \u201eCred c\u0103 ai uitat cine e mama mea.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201e\u0218tiu exact cine e,\u201d a r\u0103spuns Ion. \u201e\u0218i nu te po\u021bi ascunde mereu \u00een spatele fustei ei.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ceilal\u021bi b\u0103ie\u021bi au chicotit \u00eencet. Fa\u021ba lui Teodor s-a \u00eenro\u0219it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eO s\u0103 regre\u021bi asta, mo\u0219ule,\u201d a scr\u00e2\u0219nit, str\u00e2ng\u00e2nd mingea mai tare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma a expirat. \u201eMul\u021bumesc, Ion. Dar\u2026 nu cred c\u0103 s-a terminat.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A doua zi diminea\u021b\u0103, Emma nici m\u0103car nu a auzit u\u0219a deschiz\u00e2ndu-se. S-a lovit de perete cu at\u00e2ta for\u021b\u0103 c\u0103 a s\u0103rit \u00een scaun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Linda C\u0103rlescu a p\u0103truns furtunos, buzele perfect vopsite. Tocurile ei cl\u0103c\u0103neau ascu\u021bit pe podea, fa\u021ba ei str\u00e2ns\u0103 de furie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eFiul meu a venit acas\u0103 umilit,\u201d a scr\u00e2\u0219nit, vocea ei ascu\u021bit\u0103 \u0219i joas\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201e\u00cengrijitorul acela l-a insultat. L-a jenat \u00een fa\u021ba prietenilor s\u0103i. Dac\u0103 nu e plecat p\u00e2n\u0103 la sf\u00e2r\u0219itul zilei, tu vei fi. Cunosc oameni, Emma. Asta nu e un bluf.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma a clipit, \u00eenghe\u021b\u00e2nd pentru o clip\u0103. Camera p\u0103rea mai mic\u0103 dec\u00e2t \u00eenainte, aerul mai greu. Un nod s-a format \u00een g\u00e2tul ei, dar fa\u021ba ei a r\u0103mas nemi\u0219cat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201e\u00cen\u021beleg,\u201d a spus \u00eencet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Linda nu a a\u0219teptat. S-a \u00eentors \u0219i a plecat la fel de repede cum venise, l\u0103s\u00e2nd \u00een urm\u0103 mirosul de parfum scump \u0219i ceva mai rece \u2014 arogan\u021ba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mai t\u00e2rziu, Emma a mers pe coridor de parc\u0103 pantofii ei erau f\u0103cu\u021bi din piatr\u0103. Fiecare pas se sim\u021bea mai greu dec\u00e2t precedentul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u00e2nd a ajuns la dulapul \u00eengrijitorului, m\u00e2na i-a tremurat u\u0219or \u00een timp ce b\u0103tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ion a deschis u\u0219a. Era o cutie de carton pe jum\u0103tate plin\u0103 pe mas\u0103. C\u00e2rpe de cur\u0103\u021bat. Un radio. O conserv\u0103 pe jum\u0103tate folosit\u0103 de cear\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eAi auzit?\u201d a \u00eentrebat ea, abia deasupra unei \u0219oapte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A dat din cap. Ochii lui nu str\u0103luceau de m\u00e2nie. Nu mai era nicio lupt\u0103 r\u0103mas\u0103. Doar o triste\u021be profund\u0103, t\u0103cut\u0103, ca cineva care \u0219i-a pus deja speran\u021ba deoparte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eM-am g\u00e2ndit,\u201d a spus. \u201eLindei nu \u00eei place ca fiul ei s\u0103 aud\u0103 adev\u0103rul.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201e\u00cemi pare at\u00e2t de r\u0103u. Nu voiam s\u0103\u2014\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A ridicat bl\u00e2nd o m\u00e2n\u0103 s\u0103 o opreasc\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eE \u00een regul\u0103,\u201d a spus. \u201eAi o \u0219coal\u0103 de protejat. Am avut o carier\u0103 bun\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma a f\u0103cut un pas \u00eenainte \u0219i i-a pus o m\u00e2n\u0103 pe um\u0103r. Haina lui era aspr\u0103, uzat\u0103 la cus\u0103turi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eNu meri\u021bi asta,\u201d a spus, vocea fr\u00e2ng\u00e2ndu-se.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I-a oferit un z\u00e2mbet bl\u00e2nd. \u201eRar merit\u0103m.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a \u00eentors s\u0103 termine de \u00eempachetat, \u0219i Emma, nesigur\u0103 ce altceva s\u0103 fac\u0103, s-a a\u0219ezat \u00een scaunul ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lemnul a sc\u00e2r\u021b\u00e2it sub picioarele ei dar \u00eenc\u0103 p\u0103stra c\u0103ldura corpului s\u0103u. Camera mic\u0103, c\u00e2ndva at\u00e2t de plin\u0103 de confort, acum se sim\u021bea goal\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a uitat \u00een jos \u0219i a v\u0103zut ceva sub birou: o mic\u0103 sc\u00e2nteiere de metal. S-a aplecat \u0219i l-a ridicat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Era un ceas de piele. Curea era rupt\u0103 \u0219i fa\u021ba de sticl\u0103 zg\u00e2riat\u0103. Pe spate, abia lizibil: \u201eFii mereu sincer\u0103 cu tine \u00eens\u0103\u021bi, EI.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i-a oprit respira\u021bia. \u00cei d\u0103duse ceasul acela \u00een prima lui zi. Acum dou\u0103zeci de ani.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i acum, cu inima grea, \u0219i-a dat seama c\u0103 tocmai \u00ee\u0219i \u00eenc\u0103lcase propria promisiune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma a str\u00e2ns ferm ceasul vechi de piele, de parc\u0103 ar fi fost o fr\u00e2nghie de salvare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A ie\u0219it \u00een fug\u0103 din birou, tocurile ei lovind pl\u0103cile repede \u0219i tare, r\u0103sun\u00e2nd pe coridorul lung ca o tob\u0103. Inima \u00eei b\u0103tea \u00een piept, mai repede dec\u00e2t pa\u0219ii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Afar\u0103, soarele cald al dup\u0103-amiezii se rev\u0103rsa ca aurul topit. Totul p\u0103rea calm, dar \u00een ea, se ridica o furtun\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
L-a v\u0103zut l\u00e2ng\u0103 u\u0219a \u0219colii, merg\u00e2nd \u00eencet, c\u0103r\u00e2nd o cutie de carton sub bra\u021b.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eIon!\u201d a strigat, vocea ei ascu\u021bit\u0103 \u0219i urgent\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a \u00eentors la strig\u0103tul ei \u0219i s-a oprit brusc. Ochii lor s-au \u00eent\u00e2lnit \u2014 confuzi dar buni.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma a alergat ultimii pa\u0219i, \u021bin\u00e2nd ceasul. Era f\u0103r\u0103 suflare, p\u0103rul lipit de fa\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eAi l\u0103sat asta,\u201d a spus, vocea tremur\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ion s-a uitat la ceas. Fa\u021ba i s-a \u00eenmuiat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eNu a fost inten\u021bia mea,\u201d a spus \u00eencet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ochii Emmei s-au umezerit. \u201eMi-am amintit ce am scris. Am uitat cine eram, Ion.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a uitat la ea \u2014 cu adev\u0103rat s-a uitat \u2014 \u0219i apoi \u00eencet a dat din cap. \u201eEi bine, aminte\u0219te-\u021bi acum.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ea a dat din cap cu o voce joas\u0103. \u201eTe rog, \u00eentoarce-te. Voi gestiona consecin\u021bele.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A f\u0103cut o pauz\u0103, apoi a z\u00e2mbit pu\u021bin. \u201eBine. Dar e mai bine s\u0103 o faci cum trebuie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A doua zi diminea\u021b\u0103, Emma \u0219edea la biroul ei, a\u0219tept\u00e2nd. M\u00e2inile \u00eei odihneau calm pe lemn, de\u0219i inima nu era calm\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ceasul vechi de la \u00eencheietura m\u00e2inii tic\u0103ia \u00eencet, o reamintire \u00een fiecare secund\u0103: fii sincer\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
U\u0219a s-a deschis f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 bat\u0103. Linda C\u0103rlescu a intrat cu pasul maiestuos, b\u0103rbia ridicat\u0103 \u0219i ochii ascu\u021bi\u021bi. \u00cen spatele ei mergea Teodor, umerii c\u0103zu\u021bi \u0219i m\u00e2inile \u00een buzunare. Nu mai p\u0103rea at\u00e2t de arogant acum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eV\u0103d c\u0103 \u00eengrijitorul e \u00eenc\u0103 aici,\u201d a spus Linda cu un z\u00e2mbet lent, satisf\u0103cut. \u201e\u021ai-ai f\u0103cut alegerea.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma s-a ridicat, vocea ferm\u0103. \u201eAm f\u0103cut-o. \u0218i ast\u0103zi spun la revedere.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ochii Lindei s-au luminat \u0219i a ap\u0103rut un z\u00e2mbet. \u201eBine. Nu vei regreta.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma s-a \u00eentors spre Teodor. \u201eLa revedere, Teodor. E\u0219ti exmatriculat.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pentru o secund\u0103, t\u0103cerea a cuprins camera. Apoi a explodat ca tunetul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eCe?\u201d a strigat Teodor, f\u0103c\u00e2nd un pas \u00eenainte. \u201eNu po\u021bi face asta!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma nu a clipit. \u201eAceast\u0103 \u0219coal\u0103 nu tolereaz\u0103 cruzimea. Nu r\u0103spl\u0103tim \u00eendrept\u0103\u021birea. Ai trecut linia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Linda s-a \u00eencr\u00e2ntat. \u201eVei pl\u0103ti pentru asta. So\u021bul meu\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma a ridicat m\u00e2na, calm\u0103 dar ferm\u0103. \u201eS\u0103 vin\u0103. S\u0103 vin\u0103 to\u021bi. Nu m\u0103 voi mai pleca.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a uitat la ceasul vechi tic\u0103ind de la \u00eencheietura m\u00e2inii. Prindea lumina dimine\u021bii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201ePrefer s\u0103 \u00eemi pierd slujba dec\u00e2t s\u0103 m\u0103 pierd pe mine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Linda s-a \u00eentors pe tocuri \u0219i a ie\u0219it furtunos, tocurile ei cl\u0103c\u0103nind ca ni\u0219te pocnitori. Teodor a urmat, murmur\u00e2nd printre din\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u00e2teva momente mai t\u00e2rziu, Ion s-a uitat \u00een birou, spr\u00e2ncenele ridicate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eEi,\u201d a spus cu un z\u00e2mbet str\u00e2mb, \u201ea mers mai bine dec\u00e2t m\u0103 a\u0219teptam.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emma a scos un r\u00e2s tremurat, \u0219terge\u00e2ndu-\u0219i o lacrim\u0103 de pe obraz. \u201eCred c\u0103 avem un acoperi\u0219 de reparat \u0219i o gr\u0103din\u0103 de plantat.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A stat l\u00e2ng\u0103 el. \u201e\u0218i ceai de f\u0103cut.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Au mers pe coridor \u00eempreun\u0103 \u2014 director \u0219i \u00eengrijitor, unul l\u00e2ng\u0103 altul, st\u00e2nd drep\u021bi \u2014 \u0219tiind c\u0103 f\u0103cuser\u0103 ce trebuie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
