M\u00e2inile \u00eemi tremurau at\u00e2t de tare \u00eenc\u00e2t abia am reu\u0219it s\u0103 ridic capacul complet. \u00cen\u0103untru nu erau bani, a\u0219a cum, poate, o parte din mine sperase \u00een t\u0103cere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Era ceva mult mai greu. O fotografie veche, \u00eeng\u0103lbenit\u0103 la col\u021buri. \u0218i un plic. Am luat fotografia prima.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Era el. Ion. Dar nu sub copertina ruginit\u0103, nu ud \u0219i tremur\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Era \u00eembr\u0103cat \u00eentr-un costum elegant, st\u00e2nd \u00een fa\u021ba unei cl\u0103diri mari, cu un z\u00e2mbet calm \u0219i sigur pe el. L\u00e2ng\u0103 el, o pl\u0103cu\u021b\u0103 pe care abia se mai distingea scrisul: \u201eFirma Popescu & Asocia\u021bii\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am sim\u021bit cum mi se \u00eenv\u00e2rte capul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eNu \u00een\u021beleg\u2026\u201d am \u0219optit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Avocatul a dat din cap u\u0219or.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eDomnul Ion a fost, la un moment dat, un om foarte respectat. A avut afaceri, bani, familie. Dar a pierdut totul \u00eentr-un timp foarte scurt.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eenghi\u021bit \u00een sec.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am deschis plicul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Scrisul era tremurat, dar clar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eAna,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dac\u0103 cite\u0219ti asta, \u00eenseamn\u0103 c\u0103 nu am mai apucat s\u0103-\u021bi mul\u021bumesc a\u0219a cum trebuie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen seara aceea, nu mi-ai dat doar ni\u0219te bani. Mi-ai dat un motiv s\u0103 nu renun\u021b.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lacrimile mi-au \u00eenceput din nou s\u0103 curg\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eTrecusem printr-o perioad\u0103 \u00een care pierdusem tot: firma, casa, familia. M\u0103 pierdusem \u0219i pe mine. Eram gata s\u0103 dispar, la propriu \u0219i la figurat.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am dus m\u00e2na la gur\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eDar tu\u2026 o fat\u0103 cu doi copii \u00een bra\u021be, f\u0103r\u0103 nimic, mi-ai ar\u0103tat c\u0103 \u00eenc\u0103 exist\u0103 bun\u0103tate. \u0218i c\u0103, dac\u0103 tu puteai s\u0103 oferi, eu nu aveam dreptul s\u0103 m\u0103 dau b\u0103tut.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eenchis ochii o clip\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cemi aminteam perfect noaptea aceea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ploua. Tremuram \u0219i eu, dar din alte motive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eDup\u0103 acea noapte, am \u00eenceput de la zero. A fost greu. Ani \u00eentregi. Dar am reu\u0219it s\u0103 m\u0103 ridic. Nu ca \u00eenainte\u2026 ci mai bine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am sim\u021bit cum inima \u00eemi bate mai tare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eAm \u00eencercat s\u0103 te g\u0103sesc. Nu pentru c\u0103 \u00ee\u021bi datorez bani. Ci pentru c\u0103 \u00ee\u021bi datorez via\u021ba mea.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am ridicat privirea spre avocat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
El doar a \u00eencuviin\u021bat din cap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am continuat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201e\u0218tiam c\u0103, \u00eentr-o zi, vei avea nevoie de ajutor. A\u0219a c\u0103 am pus deoparte ceva\u2026 nu ca o plat\u0103, ci ca o \u00eentoarcere a binelui.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M\u00e2inile \u00eemi tremurau din nou c\u00e2nd am ajuns la final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eAi avut \u00eencredere \u00eentr-un str\u0103in. Acum e r\u00e2ndul meu s\u0103 am \u00eencredere c\u0103 vei folosi acest dar a\u0219a cum \u0219tii tu mai bine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ion.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am r\u0103mas nemi\u0219cat\u0103 c\u00e2teva secunde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi am ridicat din nou privirea spre cutie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sub plic\u2026 era un dosar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Avocatul l-a deschis u\u0219or \u0219i l-a \u00eentors spre mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u00e2nd am v\u0103zut suma, am sim\u021bit c\u0103 nu mai pot respira.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu era doar suficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Era mai mult dec\u00e2t visasem vreodat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Suficient pentru tratamentele fiicei mele.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Suficient s\u0103 scap de datorii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Suficient s\u0103 respir din nou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 m\u0103 mai pot opri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu pentru bani.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ci pentru c\u0103, \u00een sf\u00e2r\u0219it, \u00een\u021belegeam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen ziua \u00een care crezusem c\u0103 sunt proast\u0103\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fusesem, de fapt, puternic\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2nile care au urmat, via\u021ba noastr\u0103 s-a schimbat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fata mea a primit tratamentele de care avea nevoie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am pl\u0103tit datoriile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar cel mai important\u2026 am \u00eenceput s\u0103 tr\u0103im f\u0103r\u0103 fric\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00centr-o sear\u0103, st\u0103team toate trei la mas\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
R\u00e2deam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Simplu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lini\u0219tit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A\u0219a cum nu o mai f\u0103cusem de ani.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am uitat la ele \u0219i am spus:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eS\u0103 nu uita\u021bi niciodat\u0103\u2026 chiar \u0219i cel mai mic gest conteaz\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fiica mea cea mare a z\u00e2mbit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eCa cei 50 de lei?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am dat din cap. \u0218i, pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 mult timp, am sim\u021bit c\u0103 via\u021ba\u2026 chiar \u00ee\u021bi d\u0103 \u00eenapoi. Dar numai dup\u0103 ce ai avut curajul s\u0103 dai tu primul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
