B\u0103rbatul a sim\u021bit cum i se taie respira\u021bia. O clip\u0103 a vrut s\u0103 r\u00e2d\u0103 nervos, s\u0103 spun\u0103 c\u0103 b\u0103tr\u00e2na a gre\u0219it omul. Dar ceva \u00een privirea ei l-a oprit. Nu era mil\u0103, nu era nebunie. Era o siguran\u021b\u0103 t\u0103cut\u0103, ap\u0103s\u0103toare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu am fiic\u0103 \u2014 a rostit, \u00een cele din urm\u0103, cu o voce stins\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2na nu a p\u0103rut surprins\u0103. \u0218i-a str\u00e2ns mai bine baticul sub b\u0103rbie \u0219i a oftat ad\u00e2nc, ca \u0219i cum greutatea anilor s-ar fi adunat \u00een acel oftat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 A\u0219a crezi tu, domnule \u2014 a spus calm. \u2014 Dar adev\u0103rul nu \u021bine cont de ce credem noi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ningea tot mai tare. \u0218oferul, c\u00e2\u021biva metri mai \u00eencolo, se uita nelini\u0219tit la ceas, dar b\u0103rbatul nu mai vedea nimic \u00een jur. Inima \u00eei b\u0103tea \u00een urechi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Despre ce vorbi\u021bi? \u2014 a \u00eentrebat, iritat \u0219i speriat \u00een acela\u0219i timp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2na s-a aplecat u\u0219or \u00eenainte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Cu mul\u021bi ani \u00een urm\u0103, o fat\u0103 t\u00e2n\u0103r\u0103 a venit aici, la cimitir. Pl\u00e2ngea \u0219i \u021binea \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103 o h\u00e2rtie cu datorie. Spunea c\u0103 un om bogat i-a promis ajutor, apoi a disp\u0103rut. Era \u00eens\u0103rcinat\u0103. Singur\u0103. Alungat\u0103 de familie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
B\u0103rbatul a sim\u021bit cum p\u0103m\u00e2ntul \u00eei fuge de sub picioare. Imagini vechi, \u00eengropate ad\u00e2nc, au \u00eenceput s\u0103 ias\u0103 la suprafa\u021b\u0103. O poveste de demult. O gre\u0219eal\u0103. Un episod pe care \u00eel \u00eenchisese \u00eentr-un col\u021b al min\u021bii \u0219i \u00eel \u00eencuiase bine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu se poate\u2026 \u2014 a \u0219optit el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ba se poate \u2014 a r\u0103spuns femeia. \u2014 \u0218i mai ales, s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I-a spus apoi numele fetei. Un nume rom\u00e2nesc simplu. Exact numele pe care \u00eel \u0219tia \u0219i el. Un nume pe care nu-l mai rostise de zeci de ani.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
B\u0103rbatul s-a sprijinit de poarta cimitirului. Tot ce construise \u2014 case, firme, conturi pline de lei \u2014 p\u0103lea \u00een fa\u021ba acelei revela\u021bii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Unde este? \u2014 a \u00eentrebat, aproape rug\u00e2ndu-se.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2na a z\u00e2mbit trist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Tr\u0103ie\u0219te. Are o fat\u0103. Fiica ta. Cre\u0219te copilul cinstit, munce\u0219te, nu cere nimic de la nimeni. Dar adev\u0103rul trebuia s\u0103 ias\u0103 la lumin\u0103. Azi. Nu m\u00e2ine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen clipa aceea, b\u0103rbatul a \u00een\u021beles. Pierderea so\u021biei nu fusese doar o pedeaps\u0103, ci \u0219i o trezire. O via\u021b\u0103 \u00eentreag\u0103 alergase dup\u0103 putere \u0219i bani, crez\u00e2nd c\u0103 are totul, dar ratase ce conta cu adev\u0103rat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A plecat de la cimitir alt om. Nu s-a dus acas\u0103. A mers direct \u00eentr-un cartier modest de la marginea ora\u0219ului. Blocuri vechi, sc\u0103ri reci, miros de m\u00e2ncare g\u0103tit\u0103 \u0219i rufe uscate pe hol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A b\u0103tut la o u\u0219\u0103. I-a deschis o femeie obosit\u0103, dar demn\u0103. C\u00e2nd l-a v\u0103zut, a \u00een\u021bepenit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Tu\u2026 \u2014 a spus ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Din spatele ei a ap\u0103rut o feti\u021b\u0103 de vreo zece ani. Cu ochi mari, cura\u021bi. Aceia\u0219i ochi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
B\u0103rbatul a \u00eengenuncheat f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103-\u0219i dea seama. Lacrimile i-au curs liber, pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 mul\u021bi ani.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Iart\u0103-m\u0103 \u2014 a spus simplu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu a promis palate. Nu a fluturat bani. A promis doar c\u0103 va fi prezent. C\u0103 nu va mai fugi. C\u0103 va recupera timpul pierdut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ani mai t\u00e2rziu, oamenii aveau s\u0103 spun\u0103 c\u0103 miliardarul s-a schimbat. A v\u00e2ndut o parte din afaceri. A investit \u00een \u0219coli, \u00een copii f\u0103r\u0103 p\u0103rin\u021bi, \u00een oameni simpli. Dar el \u0219tia adev\u0103rul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen ziua aceea, la poarta cimitirului, nu doar o so\u021bie fusese pl\u00e2ns\u0103. Se n\u0103scuse un tat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
