Am desf\u0103cut \u00eencet ceasul de la m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cel cump\u0103rasem ca s\u0103 impresionez.<\/p>\n
Ca s\u0103 demonstrez tuturor c\u0103 b\u0103iatul s\u0103rac din H\u00e2rl\u0103u ajunsese cineva.<\/p>\n
L-am privit c\u00e2teva clipe.<\/p>\n
Apoi l-am l\u0103sat s\u0103 cad\u0103 \u00een praful din curte.<\/p>\n
Nu mai \u00eensemna nimic.<\/p>\n
Abia atunci Raluca m-a privit pentru prima dat\u0103 altfel.<\/p>\n
Nu cu iertare.<\/p>\n
Ci cu mirare.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De ce ai venit, C\u0103t\u0103line? m-a \u00eentrebat \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
Am \u00eenghi\u021bit \u00een sec.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ca s\u0103 te umilesc\u2026<\/p>\n
N-a p\u0103rut surprins\u0103.<\/p>\n
Doar \u0219i-a plecat privirea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218tiam.<\/p>\n
Cuv\u00e2ntul acela m-a lovit mai tare dec\u00e2t orice repro\u0219.<\/p>\n
M-am uitat din nou la cele dou\u0103 feti\u021be.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cine sunt? am \u00eentrebat aproape f\u0103r\u0103 glas.<\/p>\n
Raluca n-a r\u0103spuns.<\/p>\n
\u00cen schimb, mama ei s-a apropiat sprijinindu-se \u00een baston.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u00cen noaptea \u00een care am aflat c\u0103 e \u00eens\u0103rcinat\u0103, te-a sunat de cincisprezece ori. Tu n-ai r\u0103spuns nici m\u0103car o dat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit c\u0103 p\u0103m\u00e2ntul fuge de sub picioarele mele.<\/p>\n
Mi-am amintit perfect.<\/p>\n
Num\u0103rul necunoscut.<\/p>\n
Telefonul pe care \u00eel respinsesem iar \u0219i iar.<\/p>\n
Crezusem c\u0103 e cineva care m\u0103 caut\u0103 pentru bani.<\/p>\n
Nu mi-a trecut nicio clip\u0103 prin minte c\u0103 era ea.<\/p>\n
Raluca \u0219i-a \u0219ters o lacrim\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Diminea\u021ba mi-am spus c\u0103, dac\u0103 n-ai r\u0103spuns nici dup\u0103 at\u00e2tea apeluri, \u00eenseamn\u0103 c\u0103 ai ales.<\/p>\n
N-am g\u0103sit niciun cuv\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n
Niciunul.<\/p>\n
Una dintre feti\u021be s-a apropiat \u00eencet de mine.<\/p>\n
\u021ainea ceva ascuns la spate.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mami spune c\u0103 nu e frumos s\u0103 umblu prin lucrurile ei\u2026<\/p>\n
Mi-a \u00eentins o fotografie.<\/p>\n
Era rupt\u0103 \u00een dou\u0103 \u0219i lipit\u0103 la loc cu o band\u0103 veche.<\/p>\n
\u00cen fotografie eram eu \u0219i Raluca, r\u00e2z\u00e2nd la b\u00e2lciul din H\u00e2rl\u0103u cu mul\u021bi ani \u00een urm\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit c\u0103-mi ard ochii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De ce ai p\u0103strat-o?<\/p>\n
Raluca a r\u0103mas c\u00e2teva secunde t\u0103cut\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 fetele m\u0103 \u00eentrebau cine este tata.<\/p>\n
\u0218i n-aveam alt\u0103 fotografie cu tine.<\/p>\n
Am izbucnit \u00een pl\u00e2ns.<\/p>\n
Nu-mi mai p\u0103sa cine m\u0103 vede.<\/p>\n
Nu-mi mai p\u0103sa de ma\u0219in\u0103.<\/p>\n
De bani.<\/p>\n
De ceas.<\/p>\n
De nimic.<\/p>\n
\u00cen ziua aceea n-am mai plecat.<\/p>\n
Am urcat pe acoperi\u0219ul casei \u0219i am \u00eenceput s\u0103 schimb tabla ruginit\u0103.<\/p>\n
A doua zi am reparat gardul.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 aceea am cur\u0103\u021bat curtea.<\/p>\n
Am reparat f\u00e2nt\u00e2na.<\/p>\n
Am vopsit casa \u00een alb, cu ferestre albastre, a\u0219a cum fusese odinioar\u0103.<\/p>\n
Vecinii se uitau peste gard \u0219i \u0219u\u0219oteau.<\/p>\n
Dar pentru prima dat\u0103 \u00een via\u021b\u0103 nu m\u0103 interesa ce spune satul.<\/p>\n
Ana \u0219i Ioana au \u00eenceput \u00eencet s\u0103 se apropie de mine.<\/p>\n
\u00cemi aduceau ap\u0103 c\u00e2nd lucram.<\/p>\n
\u00cemi \u021bineau cuiele.<\/p>\n
\u00cemi puneau \u00eentreb\u0103ri despre ora\u0219.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-o sear\u0103, Ioana s-a apropiat \u0219i m-a \u00eentrebat:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nene\u2026 dumneata r\u0103m\u00e2i?<\/p>\n
M-am uitat spre Raluca.<\/p>\n
Avea ochii umezi, dar nu spunea nimic.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dac\u0103 m\u0103 l\u0103sa\u021bi\u2026 r\u0103m\u00e2n.<\/p>\n
N-a fost o \u00eemp\u0103care peste noapte.<\/p>\n
Raluca nu m-a iertat u\u0219or.<\/p>\n
\u0218i avea dreptate.<\/p>\n
Paisprezece ani nu pot fi \u0219ter\u0219i cu o renovare \u0219i c\u00e2teva scuze.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas \u00een sat.<\/p>\n
Mi-am deschis un atelier.<\/p>\n
Munceam ziua, iar seara m\u0103 \u00eentorceam acas\u0103 \u0219i le ajutam pe fete la teme.<\/p>\n
Lunile au trecut.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-o noapte, dup\u0103 ce le-am \u00eenvelit \u00eenainte de culcare, Ioana a \u0219optit f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103-\u0219i dea seama:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Noapte bun\u0103\u2026 tata.<\/p>\n
Am \u00eencremenit.<\/p>\n
N-am r\u0103spuns.<\/p>\n
Mi-era team\u0103 c\u0103, dac\u0103 spun ceva, va crede c\u0103 a gre\u0219it.<\/p>\n
Dar ea a z\u00e2mbit \u0219i a \u00eenchis ochii.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2ni \u0219i Ana a \u00eenceput s\u0103-mi spun\u0103 la fel.<\/p>\n
Fotografia rupt\u0103 \u0219i lipit\u0103 este \u0219i ast\u0103zi pe peretele din buc\u0103t\u0103rie.<\/p>\n
Nu am schimbat-o niciodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cemi aminte\u0219te \u00een fiecare zi c\u0103 o singur\u0103 decizie poate schimba o via\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
Sau patru.<\/p>\n
Uneori m\u0103 \u00eentreb cum ar fi fost dac\u0103 a\u0219 fi r\u0103spuns m\u0103car la unul dintre cele cincisprezece apeluri din noaptea aceea.<\/p>\n
Nu voi afla niciodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dar \u00een fiecare diminea\u021b\u0103, c\u00e2nd cele dou\u0103 fete \u00eemi spun \u201etat\u0103\u201d, \u00een\u021beleg c\u0103 via\u021ba mi-a oferit o a doua \u0219ans\u0103.<\/p>\n
