Fiica mea locuia \u00eentr-un cartier lini\u0219tit, cu tei b\u0103tr\u00e2ni \u0219i cur\u021bi \u00een care at\u00e2rnau rufe albe, uscate de soare. Am tras pe dreapta cu m\u00e2inile tremur\u00e2nde, \u00eencerc\u00e2nd s\u0103-mi g\u0103sesc respira\u021bia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ea a ie\u0219it \u00een u\u0219\u0103 c\u00e2nd a auzit portiera. Avea \u0219or\u021bul pe ea \u0219i m\u00e2inile pu\u021bin \u00een f\u0103in\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Mam\u0103? Ce s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am ridicat telefonul \u0219i i l-am \u00eentins. A v\u0103zut poza. A \u00eencremenit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u00cel cuno\u0219ti? am \u00eentrebat-o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ea a dat din cap \u00eencet. Apoi m-a privit, cu ochii umezi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Mam\u0103\u2026 trebuie s\u0103-\u021bi spun ceva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-a luat de m\u00e2n\u0103 \u0219i m-a dus \u00een\u0103untru. Ne-am a\u0219ezat la masa din buc\u0103t\u0103rie, unde \u00eenc\u0103 mirosea a cozonac. A l\u0103sat t\u0103cerea s\u0103 apese pu\u021bin, apoi a \u00eenceput.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Acum c\u00e2\u021biva ani\u2026 tata a avut o aventur\u0103. A durat pu\u021bin. El a \u00eentrerupt totul \u0219i a vrut s\u0103-\u021bi spun\u0103, dar nu a mai avut curajul. Tot ce a r\u0103mas din povestea aceea\u2026 a fost un copil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am sim\u021bit cum scaunul de sub mine devine brusc rece. Inima mi-o lua razna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Un copil? Am \u0219optit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Un b\u0103iat, mam\u0103. Are acum 34 de ani. \u00cel cheam\u0103 Mihai. Nu a cerut niciodat\u0103 nimic. Nu l-a c\u0103utat pe tata, nu a vrut s\u0103 distrug\u0103 nimic. Dar c\u00e2nd a aflat c\u0103 a murit\u2026 a \u00eenceput s\u0103-l viziteze. \u00cen t\u0103cere. \u00cen fiecare vineri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lacrimile mi se rostogoleau deja pe obraji. M\u0103 sim\u021beam tr\u0103dat\u0103, sf\u00e2\u0219iat\u0103\u2026 dar \u0219i cople\u0219it\u0103 de un sentiment ciudat de mil\u0103 \u0219i dor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 De ce nu mi-ai spus?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 tata m-a implorat s\u0103 nu spun. A spus c\u0103 vrea s\u0103 repare totul \u00een t\u0103cere. L-a ajutat pe Mihai, din umbr\u0103, ani \u00eentregi. Cu bani, cu sprijin. Dar f\u0103r\u0103 ca tu s\u0103 \u0219tii. Credea c\u0103 te protejeaz\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am stat pe g\u00e2nduri. \u00cen minte mi se derulau toate momentele noastre \u00eempreun\u0103 \u2014 vacan\u021bele la mare, serile de Cr\u0103ciun, dansurile noastre st\u00e2ngace \u00een buc\u0103t\u0103rie. Totul. \u0218i acum, printre toate acele amintiri, ap\u0103rea o umbr\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar \u00een acea umbr\u0103 era \u0219i altceva: un b\u0103rbat care aducea flori. Nu pentru el. Ci pentru un tat\u0103 pe care abia \u00eel cunoscuse. Un tat\u0103 pe care nu-l judecase, ci \u00eel iubise \u00een t\u0103cere, a\u0219a cum poate doar un copil cu suflet mare poate iubi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Unde locuie\u0219te? am \u00eentrebat-o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u00cen ora\u0219. Are o feti\u021b\u0103. Seam\u0103n\u0103 cu tine, mam\u0103. Are ochii t\u0103i.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am z\u00e2mbit, de parc\u0103 mi-ar fi dat cineva o a doua \u0219ans\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Atunci e timpul s\u0103 duc eu flori, i-am spus. Dar nu la morm\u00e2nt. Ci la u\u0219a lui.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i a\u0219a am f\u0103cut. \u00cen s\u00e2mb\u0103ta urm\u0103toare, am b\u0103tut la u\u0219a necunoscutului care, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 \u0219tie, \u00eemi era fiu vitreg. A deschis, m-a privit \u00een ochi \u0219i a \u00een\u021beles totul. Nu am spus nimic. Doar l-am \u00eembr\u0103\u021bi\u0219at.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Uneori, vie\u021bile noastre ascund drumuri \u00eentortocheate. Dar florile r\u0103m\u00e2n. Ca un semn c\u0103 dragostea, \u00een cele din urm\u0103, g\u0103se\u0219te mereu o cale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
