\u00cen acel moment, Mara a \u00een\u021beles ceva ce \u00eencercase s\u0103 evite. Putea s\u0103 plece din armat\u0103. Putea s\u0103-\u0219i schimbe hainele, s\u0103-\u0219i ascund\u0103 trecutul \u0219i s\u0103 tr\u0103iasc\u0103 ca un civil obi\u0219nuit. Dar nu putea fugi de ceea ce era \u00een esen\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A tras aer \u00een piept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eSunt pilot,\u201d a spus \u00eencet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00censo\u021bitoarea s-a apropiat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201ePoftim?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mara s-a \u00eendreptat \u00een scaun. C\u00e2nd a vorbit din nou, vocea ei avea autoritatea pe care credea c\u0103 a pierdut-o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eSunt pilot de lupt\u0103. Am zburat pe avioane militare.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218oapte s-au r\u0103sp\u00e2ndit imediat prin cabin\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Capetele s-au \u00eentors spre ea. B\u0103rbatul de pe 8B o privea ca \u0219i cum tocmai aflase un secret uria\u0219. B\u0103tr\u00e2nul de pe 8C i-a prins bra\u021bul \u0219i a spus: \u201eSlav\u0103 Domnului.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
U\u0219urarea de pe chipul \u00eenso\u021bitoarei a fost instantanee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eV\u0103 rog s\u0103 veni\u021bi cu mine. Imediat.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mara s-a ridicat f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 mai spun\u0103 nimic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Picioarele \u00eei erau grele, dar pa\u0219ii siguri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pe m\u0103sur\u0103 ce mergea pe culoar, sim\u021bea privirile tuturor \u00een spate. Nu mai era invizibil\u0103. Nu mai era doar o pasager\u0103. \u00cen c\u00e2teva secunde, redevenise omul de care depindeau vie\u021bile celorlal\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00censo\u021bitoarea a deschis u\u0219a cabinei pilotului.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aerul din\u0103untru era tensionat, aproape irespirabil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Doi pilo\u021bi st\u0103teau \u00een fa\u021b\u0103. Unul dintre ei, cu m\u00e2inile \u00eencle\u0219tate pe man\u0219\u0103, avea fa\u021ba palid\u0103. Cel\u0103lalt se \u00eentorsese spre instrumente, ap\u0103s\u00e2nd butoane cu mi\u0219c\u0103ri rapide, dar nesigure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eA\u021bi ajuns,\u201d a spus c\u0103pitanul, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 se uite la ea. \u201eAvem o problem\u0103 grav\u0103 la sistemul de control. Autopilotul nu mai r\u0103spunde \u0219i comenzile sunt instabile.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mara s-a apropiat imediat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Privirea i-a fugit peste panoul de bord. Zeci de lumini, unele ro\u0219ii, clipeau alert. Sunete scurte, enervante, umpleau cabina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Corpul ei a reac\u021bionat \u00eenaintea min\u021bii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Totul i se p\u0103rea familiar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prea familiar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eC\u00e2nd a \u00eenceput?\u201d a \u00eentrebat calm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eAcum 10 minute. Sistemul reac\u021bioneaz\u0103 \u00eent\u00e2rziat\u2026 \u0219i uneori deloc.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mara a pus m\u00e2na pe man\u0219\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A sim\u021bit vibra\u021bia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Neregulat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Periculoas\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201ePierdem controlul hidraulic pe o linie,\u201d a spus ea scurt. \u201eTrebuie s\u0103 stabiliz\u0103m manual.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Copilotul a dat din cap, vizibil u\u0219urat c\u0103 cineva \u0219tie ce face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mara s-a a\u0219ezat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Respira\u021bia i s-a reglat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zgomotele din cabin\u0103 au \u00eenceput s\u0103 se estompeze. \u00cen mintea ei, totul devenea clar. Ordine. Pa\u0219i. Priorit\u0103\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Exact ca \u00een trecut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eReduce\u021bi viteza treptat,\u201d a spus. \u201eNu brusc.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u0103pitanul a executat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Avionul a tremurat u\u0219or.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Un murmur de panic\u0103 s-a sim\u021bit \u00een spate, din cabin\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mara nu s-a uitat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eAsculta\u021bi-m\u0103,\u201d a continuat ea. \u201eNu \u00eencerca\u021bi s\u0103 for\u021ba\u021bi comenzile. L\u0103sa\u021bi-l s\u0103 r\u0103spund\u0103. Lucra\u021bi cu el, nu \u00eempotriva lui.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Minutele au \u00eenceput s\u0103 treac\u0103 greu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fiecare secund\u0103 conta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fiecare mi\u0219care gre\u0219it\u0103 putea \u00eensemna dezastru.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Un nou semnal sonor a izbucnit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Copilotul a \u00eenjurat \u00een \u0219oapt\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201ePierdem \u0219i alt sistem\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mara a str\u00e2ns din maxilar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A mai v\u0103zut situa\u021bia asta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218tia unde duce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar mai \u0219tia ceva: c\u0103 \u00eenc\u0103 aveau o \u0219ans\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eNu intr\u0103m \u00een panic\u0103,\u201d a spus ferm. \u201e\u00cenc\u0103 zbur\u0103m.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cuvintele ei au avut efect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cabina s-a lini\u0219tit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To\u021bi se uitau acum la ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mara a inspirat ad\u00e2nc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201ePreg\u0103ti\u021bi aterizare de urgen\u021b\u0103 la primul aeroport disponibil.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eBucure\u0219ti,\u201d a r\u0103spuns rapid copilotul. \u201eEste cel mai aproape.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mara a dat din cap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201ePerfect. Mergem acolo.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cobor\u00e2rea a fost lung\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tensionat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Avionul r\u0103spundea greu, ca \u0219i cum se lupta cu ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen spate, oamenii probabil se rugau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unii pl\u00e2ngeau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar \u00een cabina pilotului, era lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Doar concentrarea conta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La 1.000 de metri, v\u00e2ntul a \u00eenceput s\u0103 bat\u0103 lateral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Avionul s-a \u00eenclinat brusc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Copilotul a \u00eenghe\u021bat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mara a corectat imediat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201e\u021aine-l\u2026 u\u0219or\u2026 a\u0219a\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vocea ei era calm\u0103, dar ferm\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ultimii metri au fost cei mai grei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pista se apropia rapid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prea rapid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eAcum,\u201d a spus ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ro\u021bile au atins asfaltul cu un \u0219oc puternic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Un moment de lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Avionul a \u00eencetinit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i s-a oprit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pentru c\u00e2teva secunde, nimeni nu a spus nimic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi, din cabin\u0103, a izbucnit un val de aplauze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Puternic. Emo\u021bionant. Real.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Copilotul a l\u0103sat capul \u00een jos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u0103pitanul s-a uitat la Mara, cu ochii umezi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eNe-a\u021bi salvat pe to\u021bi\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mara nu a r\u0103spuns imediat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a uitat pe geam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La pista luminat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La ora\u0219ul care \u00eei era acas\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi a z\u00e2mbit u\u0219or.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eNu,\u201d a spus \u00eencet. \u201eDoar mi-am f\u0103cut treaba.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 mult timp, nu mai voia s\u0103 fug\u0103 de cine era.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
