C\u00e2nd am urcat la etaj, inima \u00eemi b\u0103tea at\u00e2t de tare \u00eenc\u00e2t sim\u021beam c\u0103 o aud \u00een urechi. Sofia st\u0103tea pe pat, \u021bin\u00e2ndu-\u0219i ursule\u021bul la piept. C\u00e2nd m-a v\u0103zut, a \u00eencercat s\u0103 z\u00e2mbeasc\u0103, dar ochii i s-au umplut de lacrimi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am a\u0219ezat l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea. \u201eSofi, iubita mea, spune-mi, te-a durut capul zilele astea? \u021ai s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat ceva la m\u0103tu\u0219a Raluca?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A ezitat. Privirea i s-a mutat spre podea, iar degetele ei mici fr\u0103m\u00e2ntau urechea ursule\u021bului. \u201eMami\u2026 s\u0103 nu te superi pe mine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eN-am cum s\u0103 m\u0103 sup\u0103r, puiul meu. Spune-mi doar adev\u0103rul.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Atunci a \u00eenceput s\u0103 tremure u\u0219or. \u201eDoar c\u00e2nd m\u0103 jucam cu Maria, fata Raluc\u0103i\u2026 m-a prins de p\u0103r\u2026 tare\u2026 \u0219i nu m-a l\u0103sat. A zis c\u0103 dac\u0103 spun, m\u0103 ceart\u0103 toat\u0103 lumea.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sim\u021beam cum mi se str\u00e2nge stomacul. Mihai, care st\u0103tea \u00een u\u0219\u0103, \u00ee\u0219i mu\u0219ca buza ca s\u0103 nu spun\u0103 nimic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201e\u0218i Raluca?\u201d am \u00eentrebat cu o voce pe care abia o recuno\u0219team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sofia a clipit repede. \u201eRaluca a zis c\u0103 a fost vina mea, c\u0103 am tras-o \u0219i eu pe Maria\u2026 dar eu n-am f\u0103cut nimic, mami. Doar m-am speriat\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am sim\u021bit c\u0103 p\u0103m\u00e2ntul mi se clatin\u0103. M\u0103tu\u0219a ei, sora mea, l\u0103sase un copil s\u0103 fie tras de p\u0103r p\u00e2n\u0103 la s\u00e2nge \u0219i nici m\u0103car nu mi-a spus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dup\u0103 ce Sofia s-a lini\u0219tit, am cobor\u00e2t cu Mihai \u00een buc\u0103t\u0103rie. Nu mai era loc de \u00eendoial\u0103. Trebuia s\u0103 mergem acolo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u00e2teva ore mai t\u00e2rziu, eram \u00een fa\u021ba por\u021bii Raluc\u0103i. C\u00e2nd a deschis, chipul ei s-a luminat fals. \u201eElena! Mihai! Ce surpriz\u0103!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar Mihai n-a pierdut vremea. \u201eRaluca, vreau s\u0103-mi spui de ce fiica mea are scalpul plin de urme. \u0218i nu te g\u00e2ndi c\u0103 nu \u0219tim.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Z\u00e2mbetul i s-a \u0219ters instant. \u201eCe prostii spui?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am ar\u0103tat poza de pe telefon. A \u00eencremenit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eMaria\u2026 s-au certat fetele, \u0219tii cum sunt copiii.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eNu, Raluca. Asta nu e o joac\u0103 de copii. Asta e durere, e fric\u0103, e ru\u0219ine ascuns\u0103 sub p\u0103r.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pentru o clip\u0103, p\u0103rea c\u0103 vrea s\u0103 r\u0103spund\u0103, dar a cobor\u00e2t privirea. \u201eNu m-am b\u0103gat\u2026 m-am g\u00e2ndit c\u0103 trece. Maria a fost geloas\u0103, Sofia a primit o juc\u0103rie nou\u0103\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eNu m-am b\u0103gat\u2026\u201d Cuvintele ei \u00eemi r\u0103sunau \u00een minte ca un ecou amar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am ie\u0219it din curtea ei tremur\u00e2nd. Mihai m-a prins de m\u00e2n\u0103. \u201eGata. Nu mai mergem acolo niciodat\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen zilele urm\u0103toare, am dus-o pe Sofia la medic. Diagnosticul: alopecie traumatic\u0103 \u2014 p\u0103r smuls cu for\u021ba, repetat, \u00een acela\u0219i loc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am sim\u021bit c\u0103 mi se rupe sufletul. Dar \u00een acela\u0219i timp am jurat c\u0103 nu o s\u0103 mai las pe nimeni s\u0103-i ating\u0103 un fir de p\u0103r.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mihai \u0219i-a luat concediu o vreme. Fiecare diminea\u021b\u0103 \u00eencepea cu micul lor ritual: piept\u0103natul bl\u00e2nd, z\u00e2mbetele \u00een oglind\u0103 \u0219i o \u00eembr\u0103\u021bi\u0219are lung\u0103. P\u0103rul Sofiei \u00eencepea s\u0103 creasc\u0103 la loc, fir cu fir, ca o promisiune c\u0103 vindecarea e posibil\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00centr-o sear\u0103, ea s-a uitat la mine \u0219i mi-a spus: \u201eMami, \u0219tii ce? Acum \u00eemi place p\u0103rul meu scurt. A zis tati c\u0103 ar\u0103t ca o eroin\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am z\u00e2mbit printre lacrimi. \u201e\u0218i are dreptate. E\u0219ti cea mai curajoas\u0103 feti\u021b\u0103 din lume.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De atunci, am \u00eenv\u0103\u021bat c\u0103 uneori r\u0103ul nu vine de departe, ci din locuri \u00een care crezi c\u0103 e\u0219ti \u00een siguran\u021b\u0103. Dar am mai \u00eenv\u0103\u021bat ceva: c\u0103 iubirea, r\u0103bdarea \u0219i adev\u0103rul pot repara chiar \u0219i r\u0103nile pe care nu le vede nimeni.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i \u00een fiecare sear\u0103, c\u00e2nd o privesc pe Sofia dormind lini\u0219tit\u0103, \u00eemi amintesc c\u00e2t de puternic\u0103 e o mam\u0103 atunci c\u00e2nd lupt\u0103 pentru copilul ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
