Totul a \u00eenceput at\u00e2t de discret, \u00eenc\u00e2t la \u00eenceput nici nu mi-am dat seama c\u0103 ceva era \u00een neregul\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Radu nu a venit \u00een via\u021ba mea cu \u021bipete, interdic\u021bii sau amenin\u021b\u0103ri. A venit cu grij\u0103. Sau cel pu\u021bin a\u0219a p\u0103rea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La \u00eenceput \u00eemi spunea s\u0103 nu m\u0103 trezesc prea devreme, pentru c\u0103 \u201eam nevoie de odihn\u0103\u201d. Apoi m\u0103 ruga s\u0103 nu las lumina aprins\u0103, fiindc\u0103 \u201enu e bine s\u0103 risipim\u201d. Mai t\u00e2rziu, a \u00eenceput s\u0103 hot\u0103rasc\u0103 ce m\u00e2nc\u0103m, cui pot s\u0103-i r\u0103spund la telefon \u0219i ce haine ar trebui s\u0103 port ca s\u0103 \u201ear\u0103t decent\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cemi spuneam c\u0103 exagerez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u0103 poate a\u0219a era el. Mai atent. Mai ordonat. Mai protector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Doar c\u0103, uneori, grija \u0219i controlul seam\u0103n\u0103 at\u00e2t de mult, \u00eenc\u00e2t abia mai \u0219tii unde se termin\u0103 una \u0219i unde \u00eencepe cealalt\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00centr-o zi, am vrut s\u0103 m\u0103 \u00eent\u00e2lnesc cu Patricia, o prieten\u0103 veche pe care nu o mai v\u0103zusem de mult timp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mi-am pus paltonul, mi-am luat geanta \u0219i eram deja \u00een hol, c\u00e2nd am auzit vocea lui Radu:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Pentru ce? E\u0219ti obosit\u0103. Ce ai tu de vorbit cu ea?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu a ridicat tonul. Nu p\u0103rea furios. Vorbea calm, aproape bl\u00e2nd, ca un om convins c\u0103 \u0219tie mai bine ce e bine pentru mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am r\u0103mas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu pentru c\u0103 eram de acord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ci pentru c\u0103 nu mai aveam puterea s\u0103 m\u0103 contrazic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi, \u00eencetul cu \u00eencetul, totul a devenit obi\u0219nuin\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u00e2nd Radu venea acas\u0103, \u0219tiam unde trebuie s\u0103 fie cana, unde trebuia pus prosopul, unde s\u0103 stau c\u00e2t \u00ee\u0219i scotea paltonul. Nu m\u0103 mai \u00eentreba ce vreau la cin\u0103. Spunea doar:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Sup\u0103. Adu sarea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu mai glumea. Nu m\u0103 mai privea ca la \u00eenceput. Nu m\u0103 mai \u00eentreba dac\u0103 sunt bine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Doar \u00een zilele ploioase se schimba. Atunci m\u0103 \u00eembr\u0103\u021bi\u0219a, \u00eemi vorbea mai cald \u0219i \u00eemi spunea c\u0103 nu sunt singur\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iar eu \u00eel credeam din nou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M\u0103car pentru o or\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dup\u0103 trei luni, am aflat \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103tor c\u0103 Radu \u00eenc\u0103 mergea la fosta lui so\u021bie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Spunea c\u0103 o ajut\u0103 cu ni\u0219te acte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La \u00eenceput am \u00eencercat s\u0103 nu dau importan\u021b\u0103. Apoi am observat c\u0103 ea suna des. Prea des. Iar telefonul lui st\u0103tea mereu cu ecranul \u00een jos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00centr-o sear\u0103 l-am \u00eentrebat:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ascunzi ceva?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A z\u00e2mbit ironic, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 m\u0103 priveasc\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu mai fi paranoic\u0103, Clara. La v\u00e2rsta ta ar trebui s\u0103 \u0219tii ce \u00eenseamn\u0103 \u00eencrederea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am t\u0103cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu pentru c\u0103 \u00eel credeam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ci pentru c\u0103, dac\u0103 a\u0219 fi spus adev\u0103rul cu voce tare, ar fi trebuit s\u0103 iau o decizie. Iar eu \u00eenc\u0103 speram c\u0103 se va schimba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Uneori spunea lucruri care m\u0103 f\u0103ceau s\u0103 \u00eenghe\u021b:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 E\u0219ti prea emo\u021bional\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sau:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Pari obosit\u0103. Poate ar trebui s\u0103 mergi la doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu erau insulte directe. Erau mai rele. Erau pic\u0103turi mici, reci, care \u00eemi c\u0103deau zilnic peste \u00eencrederea \u00een mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fiecare fraz\u0103 p\u0103rea s\u0103-mi spun\u0103 c\u0103 problema sunt eu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eu eram sensibil\u0103. Eu eram suspicioas\u0103. Eu nu \u00een\u021belegeam. Eu exageram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i, \u00eencet, am \u00eenceput s\u0103 m\u0103 mic\u0219orez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eencetat s\u0103 mai port haine colorate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eencetat s\u0103 r\u00e2d tare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eencetat s\u0103 dau telefoane f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 m\u0103 g\u00e2ndesc \u00eenainte dac\u0103 va fi o problem\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cemi ceream scuze tot timpul. Pentru p\u00e2inea cump\u0103rat\u0103 gre\u0219it. Pentru o lumin\u0103 aprins\u0103. Pentru o diminea\u021b\u0103 trist\u0103. Pentru o sear\u0103 t\u0103cut\u0103. Pentru lucruri care nu aveau nicio leg\u0103tur\u0103 cu mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
P\u00e2n\u0103 \u00eentr-o zi, c\u00e2nd Radu a aruncat cana \u00een chiuvet\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Doar pentru c\u0103 i se r\u0103cise cafeaua.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu a \u021bipat. Nu m-a lovit. Dar sunetul ceramicii izbindu-se de metal a r\u0103mas \u00een mine ca o amenin\u021bare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lini\u0219tea de dup\u0103 a fost mai \u00eenfrico\u0219\u0103toare dec\u00e2t orice scandal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A doua zi am plecat \u00een parc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am a\u0219ezat pe o banc\u0103, am scos telefonul \u0219i i-am scris Sofiei:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eDraga mea, ce face\u021bi?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n R\u0103spunsul ei a venit repede:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201eNe e dor de tine. Vino.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Nu i-am r\u0103spuns imediat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n M-am uitat la ecran ca la o fereastr\u0103 deschis\u0103 spre o alt\u0103 via\u021b\u0103. Una \u00een care \u00eenc\u0103 exista c\u0103ldur\u0103. Una \u00een care numele meu nu era rostit ca o gre\u0219eal\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Seara, Radu m-a \u00eentrebat:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2014 Unde ai fost?<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2014 Afar\u0103. La plimbare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A z\u00e2mbit scurt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2014 Ie\u0219i acum la plimbare f\u0103r\u0103 permisiune?<\/p>\n\n\n\n A spus-o calm, aproape ca pe o glum\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dar mie mi s-a str\u00e2ns g\u00e2tul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00cen noaptea aceea nu am dormit. Am stat cu ochii \u00een tavan \u0219i, pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 mult timp, am recunoscut ce sim\u021beam cu adev\u0103rat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n M\u0103 sufocam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Grija lui nu era grij\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Era un zid. Curat, ordonat, cu perdele albe \u0219i ceai cald pe mas\u0103. Dar tot zid r\u0103m\u00e2nea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n C\u00e2teva zile mai t\u00e2rziu, mi-a spus c\u0103 trebuie s\u0103 economisim \u0219i c\u0103 ar trebui s\u0103 v\u00e2nd rochia mea veche.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2014 Oricum nu o mai por\u021bi, a zis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Apoi mi-a spus c\u0103 vrea cheia de la apartamentul Sofiei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2014 Poate o s\u0103 ne trebuiasc\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Atunci am spus:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2014 Nu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A fost primul meu \u201enu\u201d dup\u0103 un \u0219ir lung de t\u0103ceri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Radu s-a uitat la mine ca la un copil neascult\u0103tor. Nu a \u021bipat. Nu s-a enervat. Doar a z\u00e2mbit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u0218i tocmai acel z\u00e2mbet m-a speriat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pentru c\u0103 am sim\u021bit c\u0103, \u00een mintea lui, deja preg\u0103tea urm\u0103toarea mi\u0219care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00cen seara urm\u0103toare, Radu a \u00eent\u00e2rziat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mi-am str\u00e2ns lucrurile \u00een grab\u0103. \u00cemi tremurau m\u00e2inile at\u00e2t de tare, \u00eenc\u00e2t abia reu\u0219eam s\u0103 \u00eenchid fermoarul valizei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n O parte din mine \u00eenc\u0103 \u00eencerca s\u0103-l apere:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201ePoate exagerezi. Poate \u00eei este greu. Poate m\u00e2ine va fi mai bine.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Dar cealalt\u0103 parte, cea care supravie\u021buise at\u00e2tor t\u0103ceri, \u0219tia adev\u0103rul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nu mai era iubire acolo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Era fric\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Am plecat f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 sting lumina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Am l\u0103sat cheia \u00een vaza de l\u00e2ng\u0103 u\u0219\u0103 \u0219i am cobor\u00e2t sc\u0103rile f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 m\u0103 uit \u00eenapoi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Am mers pe jos p\u00e2n\u0103 la gar\u0103. Ploua, iar apa \u00eemi intrase \u00een pantofi. La un moment dat, nu mai sim\u021beam frigul. Sim\u021beam doar c\u0103 fiecare pas m\u0103 duce pu\u021bin mai aproape de mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Am sunat-o pe Sofia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2014 Pot s\u0103 vin la voi?<\/p>\n\n\n\n La cap\u0103tul cel\u0103lalt, am auzit-o pl\u00e2ng\u00e2nd \u0219i r\u00e2z\u00e2nd \u00een acela\u0219i timp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2014 Mam\u0103, bine\u00een\u021beles.
