Am deschis frigiderul mamei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i am r\u0103mas cu m\u00e2na pe u\u0219\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Era aproape gol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Un borcan de mu\u0219tar. Dou\u0103 iaurturi trecute de termen. O jum\u0103tate de l\u0103m\u00e2ie \u00eenvelit\u0103 \u00eentr-o folie. C\u00e2teva ou\u0103. O buc\u0103\u021bic\u0103 de br\u00e2nz\u0103 \u00eentr-o farfurie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At\u00e2t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am uitat la rafturile goale \u0219i am sim\u021bit cum toate cifrele din caiet cap\u0103t\u0103, dintr-odat\u0103, alt\u0103 greutate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Dana? Ce e?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cristi venise \u00een spatele meu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am dat pu\u021bin la o parte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a uitat \u00een frigider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
N-a spus nimic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 A\u0219a m\u00e2nca mama? am \u00eentrebat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu \u0219tiu\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Tu st\u0103teai la c\u00e2teva cartiere de ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A tres\u0103rit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu \u00eencepe iar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu \u00eencep nimic. Te \u00eentreb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u0218i eu \u00ee\u021bi spun c\u0103 nu \u0219tiam! C\u00e2nd veneam, avea m\u00e2ncare. F\u0103cea ciorb\u0103, sarmale, pl\u0103cinte\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am \u00eentors spre el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Pentru cine le f\u0103cea?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00centrebarea a r\u0103mas \u00eentre noi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pentru c\u0103 am\u00e2ndoi \u0219tiam r\u0103spunsul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pentru noi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am deschis congelatorul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i acolo am g\u0103sit dou\u0103 caserole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pe prima era lipit\u0103 o bucat\u0103 de band\u0103 adeziv\u0103 pe care mama scrisese cu markerul:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eCristi.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pe cealalt\u0103:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eDana.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am scos-o pe a mea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen\u0103untru erau sarmale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am sim\u021bit c\u0103 nu mai pot respira.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mama f\u0103cuse m\u00e2ncare \u0219i o pusese deoparte pentru noi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Probabil urma s\u0103 ne sune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Dana, am f\u0103cut ni\u0219te sarmale. C\u00e2nd vii s\u0103 le iei?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De c\u00e2te ori auzisem asta?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De c\u00e2te ori r\u0103spunsesem:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Las\u0103-le acolo, mam\u0103, trec eu c\u00e2nd pot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cristi a luat cealalt\u0103 caserol\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A r\u0103mas cu ea \u00een m\u00e2ini c\u00e2teva secunde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi s-a a\u0219ezat la masa din buc\u0103t\u0103rie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 B\u0103i\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i-a trecut palma peste fa\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Noi tot am luat de la femeia asta p\u00e2n\u0103 la sf\u00e2r\u0219it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu era un repro\u0219.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nici pentru mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nici pentru el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Era pur \u0219i simplu adev\u0103rul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mama murise, iar \u00een congelatorul ei tot pentru noi era m\u00e2ncarea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen caietul ei erau cheltuielile noastre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen ultimele luni ale vie\u021bii ei, \u00eenaintea pantofilor ei, \u00eenaintea controlului la ochi \u0219i, uneori, chiar \u00eenaintea medicamentelor, eram tot noi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cumnata mea ap\u0103ruse \u00een u\u0219a buc\u0103t\u0103riei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cenc\u0103 \u021binea lenjeriile \u00een bra\u021be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a uitat la frigider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La caserole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La Cristi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi s-a \u00eentors f\u0103r\u0103 un cuv\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Peste c\u00e2teva minute am g\u0103sit-o \u00een dormitor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Punea lenjeriile \u00eenapoi \u00een dulap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ce faci? am \u00eentrebat-o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Le las aici.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 De ce?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A ridicat din umeri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu \u0219tiu. Nu-mi mai vine s\u0103 le iau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00een\u021beles-o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De\u0219i, dac\u0103 st\u0103teai s\u0103 te g\u00e2nde\u0219ti, lenjeriile nu aveau nicio vin\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nici frigiderul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lucrurile trebuiau \u00eemp\u0103r\u021bite p\u00e2n\u0103 la urm\u0103. Mama nu mai avea ce face cu ele.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu asta ne ap\u0103sa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ne era ru\u0219ine de graba cu care intraser\u0103m \u00een casa ei \u00eentreb\u00e2ndu-ne ce lu\u0103m, \u00eenainte s\u0103 ne \u00eentreb\u0103m cum tr\u0103ise ea \u00een ultimele luni.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am \u00eentors la caiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mai r\u0103m\u0103seser\u0103 c\u00e2teva pagini.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen ultimele luni, scrisul mamei devenise mai tremurat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pe o pagin\u0103 scria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201ePensia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eFacturi.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eMedicamente.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iar dedesubt:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eS\u0103 pun deoparte pentru ziua Mariei.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maria era fata lui Cristi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cemplinise 16 ani cu pu\u021bin timp \u00eenainte s\u0103 moar\u0103 mama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cemi aminteam perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mama \u00eei d\u0103duse 300 de lei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maria o sunase imediat:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Mamaie, de ce mi-ai dat at\u00e2t? Nu trebuia!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mama r\u00e2sese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Las\u0103, mamaie, c\u0103 bunica are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bunica are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eenchis ochii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Parc\u0103 o auzeam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eMama are.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eBunica are.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eNu v\u0103 face\u021bi griji pentru mine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i noi o crezuser\u0103m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu pentru c\u0103 eram oameni r\u0103i.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu pentru c\u0103 ne doream ca mama s\u0103 se lipseasc\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ci pentru c\u0103 era mai comod s\u0103 credem ceea ce ne spunea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cristi s-a a\u0219ezat l\u00e2ng\u0103 mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 De ce n-a zis nimic?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am uitat la el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 era mama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At\u00e2t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ce altceva puteam s\u0103-i spun?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dac\u0103 ne-ar fi spus c\u0103 nu mai are bani pentru pantofi, probabil i-am fi cump\u0103rat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dac\u0103 ne-ar fi spus c\u0103 am\u00e2n\u0103 un control, am fi dus-o noi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dac\u0103 ne-ar fi spus c\u0103 banii pe care \u00eei d\u0103 nepotului \u00eei lipsesc ei, probabil i-am fi pus \u00eenapoi \u00een portofel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar mama nu spunea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iar noi nu \u00eentrebam suficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Era combina\u021bia perfect\u0103 pentru ca ea s\u0103 se lipseasc\u0103 \u00een lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am mai \u00eentors o pagin\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi \u00eenc\u0103 una.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i am ajuns la ultima.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu era o scrisoare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu era un repro\u0219.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu scrisese:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eCopiii mei nu au grij\u0103 de mine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu scrisese:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eM-am sacrificat pentru voi.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu ne l\u0103sase nicio lec\u021bie de via\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Era doar o propozi\u021bie, probabil scris\u0103 pentru ea \u00eens\u0103\u0219i:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eLuna viitoare s\u0103-mi iau \u0219i eu pantofii \u0103ia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am r\u0103mas cu ochii pe cuvinte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cristi le-a citit peste um\u0103rul meu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i atunci a \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu zgomotos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i-a plecat doar capul \u0219i \u0219i-a acoperit ochii cu palma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fratele meu avea 45 de ani.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Avea familie, copii, serviciu, rate \u0219i toate grijile unui om mare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar \u00een buc\u0103t\u0103ria aceea p\u0103rea din nou copilul mamei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 N-a mai venit luna viitoare, a spus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eenchis caietul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
N-a mai venit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Frigiderul a r\u0103mas \u00een apartament \u00eenc\u0103 aproape dou\u0103 luni.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Niciunul dintre noi nu mai avea chef s\u0103-l ia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00centr-o zi, Cristi m-a sunat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Dana, ce facem cu frigiderul?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ia-l.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Sigur?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Sigur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A t\u0103cut c\u00e2teva secunde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Caietul e la tine?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Da.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 P\u0103streaz\u0103-l.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i l-am p\u0103strat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu ca s\u0103-mi amintesc c\u0103 mama \u00eei d\u0103dea lui Cristi 700 de lei pentru rat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu ca s\u0103 socotesc c\u00e2t cheltuise cu nepo\u021bii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i nici ca s\u0103 ne pedepsesc pentru fiecare saco\u0219\u0103 cu m\u00e2ncare pe care am luat-o de la ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
L-am p\u0103strat pentru ultima propozi\u021bie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eLuna viitoare s\u0103-mi iau \u0219i eu pantofii \u0103ia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pentru c\u0103 \u00een cele c\u00e2teva cuvinte era mama \u00eentreag\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cent\u00e2i copiii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi nepo\u021bii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi facturile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi medicamentele.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i, dac\u0103 mai r\u0103m\u00e2nea ceva\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

De atunci, c\u00e2nd aud un p\u0103rinte \u00een v\u00e2rst\u0103 spun\u00e2nd:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

nu mai iau r\u0103spunsul de bun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Poate chiar are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar uneori \u201eeu am\u201d \u00eenseamn\u0103:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201eNu vreau s\u0103 \u0219tii c\u0103 am r\u0103mas f\u0103r\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
