Mariana respir\u0103 ad\u00e2nc \u0219i, cu o lini\u0219te ce contrasta cu rumoarea din sal\u0103, \u00eencepu s\u0103 vorbeasc\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mai \u00eent\u00e2i \u00een francez\u0103, apoi \u00een italian\u0103, iar dup\u0103 aceea \u00een german\u0103.Cuvintele \u00eei curgeau cu o naturale\u021be care f\u0103cu jurul s\u0103 \u00eencremeneasc\u0103.A continuat \u00een arab\u0103, rus\u0103, portughez\u0103, englez\u0103 \u0219i chiar \u00een latin\u0103, fiecare fraz\u0103 rostindu-se cu o claritate impecabil\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Se l\u0103s\u0103 o lini\u0219te ap\u0103s\u0103toare.P\u00e2n\u0103 \u0219i cei care r\u00e2seser\u0103 mai devreme \u00ee\u0219i plecar\u0103 privirea, ru\u0219ina\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Judec\u0103torul, care p\u00e2n\u0103 atunci o privea de sus, \u00ee\u0219i schimb\u0103 culoarea fe\u021bei.Nu mai era sigur pe ironia lui.\u00cen fa\u021ba lui nu st\u0103tea o copil\u0103 care se l\u0103uda, ci un geniu al limbilor, o minte str\u0103lucit\u0103 pe care nici el, nici procurorii nu o puteau contrazice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mama Marianei izbucni \u00een lacrimi, duc\u00e2ndu-\u0219i m\u00e2inile la gur\u0103.Era ca o lumin\u0103 aprins\u0103 \u00eentr-un tunel \u00eentunecat.\u00ce\u0219i vedea copilul c\u0103p\u0103t\u00e2nd, pentru prima dat\u0103, respectul pe care \u00eel merita.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Un murmur nou se isc\u0103 din sal\u0103, de data aceasta de uimire, nu de batjocur\u0103.Unii dintre jura\u021bi schimbau priviri \u00eentre ei, d\u00e2ndu-\u0219i seama c\u0103 acuza\u021biile c\u0103deau \u00een fa\u021ba eviden\u021bei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mariana se opri \u0219i, cu o voce simpl\u0103, dar plin\u0103 de for\u021b\u0103, spuse:\u2014 Eu nu sunt o delincvent\u0103. Eu sunt o fat\u0103 care a muncit, care a citit, care a \u00eenv\u0103\u021bat singur\u0103, cu c\u0103r\u021bi \u00eemprumutate de la bibliotec\u0103 \u0219i cu nop\u021bi nedormite. Singura mea vin\u0103 e c\u0103 provin dintr-o familie s\u0103rac\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cuvintele ei au lovit sala mai tare dec\u00e2t orice pledoarie de avocat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Judec\u0103torul r\u0103mase t\u0103cut.\u00ce\u0219i trecu m\u00e2na peste frunte, ca \u0219i cum ar fi vrut s\u0103 \u0219tearg\u0103 ru\u0219inea care \u00eel cople\u0219ea.Pentru prima dat\u0103, privi dincolo de dosar, dincolo de acuza\u021bii, \u0219i v\u0103zu \u00een fa\u021ba lui nu o inculpat\u0103, ci o t\u00e2n\u0103r\u0103 cu un dar rar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen Rom\u00e2nia, oamenii au un proverb: \u201eCine are carte, are parte.\u201d\u0218i parc\u0103 acest adev\u0103r r\u0103suna acum \u00een mintea tuturor celor prezen\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Procurorul, ro\u0219u la fa\u021b\u0103, \u00eencerc\u0103 s\u0103 mai spun\u0103 ceva, dar jura\u021bii p\u0103reau deja hot\u0103r\u00e2\u021bi.Nimeni nu mai putea contesta inteligen\u021ba \u0219i sinceritatea Marianei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Verdictul veni mai repede dec\u00e2t se a\u0219tepta oricine: achitare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mama ei o str\u00e2nse \u00een bra\u021be, pl\u00e2ng\u00e2nd \u00een hohote, iar Mariana, pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 luni \u00eentregi de chin, sim\u021bi cum lan\u021burile nedrept\u0103\u021bii se rup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Publicul izbucni \u00een aplauze, iar un b\u0103tr\u00e2n din ultimele r\u00e2nduri murmur\u0103 cu emo\u021bie:\u2014 A\u0219a se na\u0219te speran\u021ba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iar Mariana, cu ochii \u00een lacrimi, \u00ee\u0219i ridic\u0103 fruntea \u0219i z\u00e2mbi pentru prima oar\u0103, ca o floare care re\u00eenvie dup\u0103 furtun\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Acea zi nu a fost doar o victorie personal\u0103.A fost o lec\u021bie pentru to\u021bi: c\u0103 adev\u0103rul, oric\u00e2t ar fi de greu, str\u0103luce\u0219te \u00eentotdeauna mai tare dec\u00e2t minciuna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i c\u0103, la fel ca \u00een pove\u0219tile rom\u00e2ne\u0219ti \u00een care cel mic \u0219i prigonit ajunge \u00eenving\u0103tor, \u0219i Mariana, fata simpl\u0103 \u0219i nec\u0103jit\u0103, a scris propria sa balad\u0103 a drept\u0103\u021bii.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
