Partea a 2-a \u2013 Continuarea pove\u0219tii \ud83d\udc49 Mai avea aproape doisprezece kilometri p\u00e2n\u0103 acas\u0103 c\u00e2nd au \u00eenceput s\u0103 o caute.<\/p>\n
La azil, infirmiera de diminea\u021b\u0103 g\u0103sise patul gol.<\/p>\n
Fereastra toaletei era deschis\u0103.<\/p>\n
Pe pervaz r\u0103m\u0103sese o urm\u0103 de noroi.<\/p>\n
Directorul \u00eel sunase imediat pe Octavian.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mama dumneavoastr\u0103 a disp\u0103rut.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cum adic\u0103 a disp\u0103rut?!<\/p>\n
\u2014 Credem c\u0103 a ie\u0219it \u00een timpul nop\u021bii.<\/p>\n
Octavian sim\u021bi c\u0103 \u00eei fuge p\u0103m\u00e2ntul de sub picioare.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Are nou\u0103zeci \u0219i doi de ani!<\/p>\n
\u00cen mai pu\u021bin de dou\u0103zeci de minute era \u00een ma\u0219in\u0103.<\/p>\n
Irina \u00eencerc\u0103 s\u0103 vin\u0103 cu el.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Las\u0103-m\u0103 s\u0103\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu.<\/p>\n
Era prima dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd \u00eei vorbea astfel.<\/p>\n
Pe drum, Octavian suna la poli\u021bie, la spitale, la prim\u0103rii.<\/p>\n
\u0218i, pentru prima dat\u0103 de c\u00e2nd \u00ee\u0219i l\u0103sase mama la azil, nu se mai putea min\u021bi.<\/p>\n
\u00ce\u0219i amintea rug\u0103mintea ei.<\/p>\n
\u201eTavi, du-m\u0103 \u00eenapoi.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u00ce\u0219i amintea promisiunea lui.<\/p>\n
\u201e\u00cen weekend vin neap\u0103rat.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nici m\u0103car nu ajunsese weekendul.<\/p>\n
Iar mama lui plecase singur\u0103 spre cas\u0103.<\/p>\n
La ora opt diminea\u021ba, poli\u021bia primi un telefon de la un \u0219ofer de camion.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Am v\u0103zut azi-noapte o b\u0103tr\u00e2n\u0103 pe \u0219oseaua jude\u021bean\u0103. Mergea spre Valea Mare. Am vrut s-o iau, dar n-a acceptat.<\/p>\n
Octavian aproape sc\u0103p\u0103 telefonul.<\/p>\n
Valea Mare era satul mamei.<\/p>\n
Atunci \u00een\u021belese.<\/p>\n
Nu fugise f\u0103r\u0103 \u021bint\u0103.<\/p>\n
Se ducea acas\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen acela\u0219i timp, Ana ajunsese la marginea satului.<\/p>\n
Primul care o v\u0103zu fu nea Vasile, vecinul de peste drum.<\/p>\n
Ie\u0219ise s\u0103 aduc\u0103 lemne c\u00e2nd observ\u0103 o siluet\u0103 mic\u0103, \u00een basma vi\u0219inie, apropiindu-se \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ana?!<\/p>\n
Sc\u0103p\u0103 lemnele din bra\u021be.<\/p>\n
Fugi spre ea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Doamne, femeie, de unde vii?<\/p>\n
Ana \u00eel privi \u0219i z\u00e2mbi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De la ora\u0219.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pe jos?!<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mai mult pe jos.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dar unde ai fost?<\/p>\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2na privi spre casa ei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 M-a dus b\u0103iatul la azil.<\/p>\n
Nea Vasile nu mai spuse nimic.<\/p>\n
O lu\u0103 de bra\u021b.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd Ana ajunse \u00een fa\u021ba por\u021bii, se opri.<\/p>\n
Casa era mic\u0103.<\/p>\n
Tencuiala c\u0103zuse \u00een c\u00e2teva locuri.<\/p>\n
Gardul trebuia reparat.<\/p>\n
\u00cen curte, vi\u021ba-de-vie era uscat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dar era casa \u00een care \u00ee\u0219i crescuse copilul.<\/p>\n
Casa \u00een care Nicolae murise \u021bin\u00e2nd-o de m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
Casa \u00een care fiecare lucru avea o poveste.<\/p>\n
Ana atinse poarta.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Am ajuns, Nicule, \u0219opti ea.<\/p>\n
Vecinul auzi.<\/p>\n
Se \u00eentoarse cu spatele \u0219i \u00ee\u0219i \u0219terse ochii.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2teva femei din sat venir\u0103 imediat.<\/p>\n
Una aprinse focul.<\/p>\n
Alta \u00eei aduse ceai.<\/p>\n
Alta \u00eei \u00eenc\u0103lzi ap\u0103.<\/p>\n
Cineva sun\u0103 medicul de familie.<\/p>\n
\u00cen mai pu\u021bin de o or\u0103, jum\u0103tate de uli\u021b\u0103 \u0219tia c\u0103 Ana Petrescu se \u00eentorsese acas\u0103 pe jos de la azil.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd Octavian opri ma\u0219ina \u00een fa\u021ba por\u021bii, \u00een curte erau deja c\u00e2\u021biva vecini.<\/p>\n
Cobor\u00ee \u0219i alerg\u0103 spre cas\u0103.<\/p>\n
O g\u0103si pe mama lui l\u00e2ng\u0103 sob\u0103, \u00eenvelit\u0103 \u00eentr-o p\u0103tur\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mam\u0103!<\/p>\n
Ana ridic\u0103 privirea.<\/p>\n
Octavian \u00eengenunche \u00een fa\u021ba ei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce-ai f\u0103cut? Puteai s\u0103 mori pe drum!<\/p>\n
Ea \u00eel privi mult timp.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i acolo puteam s\u0103 mor.<\/p>\n
El \u00eencremeni.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dar acolo muream printre str\u0103ini.<\/p>\n
Octavian \u00ee\u0219i plec\u0103 fruntea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Iart\u0103-m\u0103.<\/p>\n
Mama nu r\u0103spunse.<\/p>\n
Scoase \u00eencet boccelu\u021ba de sub haine.<\/p>\n
O desf\u0103cu.<\/p>\n
Apoi puse pe mas\u0103 batista cu banii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce sunt \u0103\u0219tia?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Banii mei de \u00eenmorm\u00e2ntare.<\/p>\n
Octavian ridic\u0103 brusc ochii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Zece mii de lei. I-am str\u00e2ns dup\u0103 ce a murit tat\u0103l t\u0103u.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mam\u0103, de ce?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ca s\u0103 nu te \u00eempov\u0103rez nici dup\u0103 ce mor.<\/p>\n
Fiul ei \u00eencepu s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103.<\/p>\n
Nu discret.<\/p>\n
Nu cu demnitatea unui b\u0103rbat trecut de \u0219aizeci de ani.<\/p>\n
Pl\u00e2ngea ca b\u0103iatul care, cu multe decenii \u00eenainte, c\u0103zuse dintr-un m\u0103r \u0219i alergase la ea cu genunchii \u00eens\u00e2ngera\u021bi.<\/p>\n
Ana \u00eel privi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Toat\u0103 via\u021ba mi-a fost team\u0103 s\u0103 nu v\u0103 fiu povar\u0103. \u0218i p\u00e2n\u0103 la urm\u0103 tot povar\u0103 am ajuns.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu spune asta.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dar asta ai f\u0103cut, Tavi.<\/p>\n
Cuvintele nu fuseser\u0103 rostite cu furie.<\/p>\n
Tocmai de aceea \u00eel lovir\u0103 at\u00e2t de tare.<\/p>\n
Octavian \u00eei lu\u0103 m\u00e2inile.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Vino acas\u0103 cu mine.<\/p>\n
Ana cl\u0103tin\u0103 din cap.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Eu sunt acas\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci r\u0103m\u00e2n eu.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ai serviciu.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u00cemi iau concediu.<\/p>\n
\u00cen urm\u0103toarele zile, ceva s-a schimbat.<\/p>\n
Nu miraculos.<\/p>\n
Nu peste noapte.<\/p>\n
Octavian nu putea \u0219terge faptul c\u0103 \u00ee\u0219i abandonase mama \u00eentr-un loc \u00een care ea \u00eel rugase s\u0103 nu o lase.<\/p>\n
Dar putea decide ce avea s\u0103 fac\u0103 mai departe.<\/p>\n
A angajat o femeie din sat care s\u0103 vin\u0103 zilnic la Ana. A montat bare de sprijin \u00een baie, a reparat soba \u0219i acoperi\u0219ul, iar \u00een camera ei a instalat un buton de urgen\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
El \u00eensu\u0219i venea de trei ori pe s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
La \u00eenceput, Ana nu avea \u00eencredere \u00een promisiunile lui.<\/p>\n
De fiecare dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd pleca, \u00eentreba:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mai vii?<\/p>\n
Iar el r\u0103spundea:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Miercuri.<\/p>\n
\u0218i miercuri venea.<\/p>\n
Apoi:<\/p>\n
\u2014 S\u00e2mb\u0103t\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u0218i s\u00e2mb\u0103t\u0103 era acolo.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva luni, Ana nu mai \u00eentreba.<\/p>\n
\u0218tia.<\/p>\n
Irina a venit \u0219i ea \u00eentr-o duminic\u0103.<\/p>\n
A stat mult timp \u00een prag \u00eenainte s\u0103 spun\u0103:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mam\u0103 Ana, am gre\u0219it.<\/p>\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2na nu a r\u0103spuns imediat.<\/p>\n
Apoi i-a pus o farfurie \u00een fa\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 M\u0103n\u00e2nc\u0103. Ciorba se r\u0103ce\u0219te.<\/p>\n
Nu era iertare deplin\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dar era un \u00eenceput.<\/p>\n
Ana a mai tr\u0103it aproape trei ani.<\/p>\n
A murit \u00eentr-o diminea\u021b\u0103 de prim\u0103var\u0103, \u00een propriul pat, cu fereastra deschis\u0103 spre gr\u0103din\u0103.<\/p>\n
Octavian era l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n
Banii pentru \u00eenmorm\u00e2ntare r\u0103m\u0103seser\u0103 neatin\u0219i.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 slujb\u0103, fiul i-a g\u0103sit din nou \u00een sertarul ei, \u00een aceea\u0219i batist\u0103 curat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Deasupra lor se afla un bile\u021bel.<\/p>\n
Scrisul tremurat al mamei spunea:<\/p>\n
\u201eTavi, dac\u0103 ai ajuns s\u0103 cite\u0219ti asta, \u00eenseamn\u0103 c\u0103 p\u00e2n\u0103 la urm\u0103 n-am mai avut nevoie de bani. Nu-i cheltui pe piatr\u0103 scump\u0103. F\u0103 ceva bun cu ei. \u0218i, c\u00e2nd \u00eemb\u0103tr\u00e2ne\u0219ti, s\u0103 nu-\u021bi fie ru\u0219ine s\u0103 spui c\u0103 \u021bi-e dor de cas\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n
Octavian nu a cump\u0103rat un monument mare.<\/p>\n
Cu banii mamei \u0219i cu \u00eenc\u0103 o sum\u0103 pus\u0103 de el, a amenajat \u00een sat un mic serviciu de ajutor pentru b\u0103tr\u00e2nii r\u0103ma\u0219i singuri: lemne iarna, cump\u0103r\u0103turi, transport la medic \u0219i c\u00e2teva ore de \u00eengrijire atunci c\u00e2nd familiile nu puteau ajunge.<\/p>\n
Pe prima pagin\u0103 a registrului a scris:<\/p>\n
\u201eAna Petrescu \u2014 92 de ani. A mers spre cas\u0103 p\u00e2n\u0103 c\u00e2nd cineva a \u00een\u021beles c\u0103 b\u0103tr\u00e2ne\u021bea nu \u00eenseamn\u0103 s\u0103 nu mai ai nevoie de un c\u0103min.\u201d<\/p>\n
Iar basmaua vi\u0219inie a r\u0103mas la el.<\/p>\n
Nu ca amintire a nop\u021bii \u00een care mama lui fugise din azil.<\/p>\n
Ci a dimine\u021bii \u00een care el \u00een\u021belesese, aproape prea t\u00e2rziu, c\u0103 uneori p\u0103rin\u021bii nu cer mult de la copiii lor.<\/p>\n
Cer doar s\u0103 nu fie trata\u021bi ca un lucru de care trebuie s\u0103 scapi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
