Partea a 2-a \u2013 Continuarea pove\u0219tii \ud83d\udc49 Mihai \u0219i-a frecat ceafa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu mi s-a p\u0103rut important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Carmen s-a \u00eentors brusc spre el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ce nu \u021bi s-a p\u0103rut important?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am r\u0103spuns eu:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Faptul c\u0103 locuin\u021ba asta am cump\u0103rat-o cu doi ani \u00eenainte s\u0103 m\u0103 c\u0103s\u0103toresc cu Mihai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a f\u0103cut lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Diana s-a uitat c\u00e2nd la mine, c\u00e2nd la fratele ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Carmen a clipit de c\u00e2teva ori.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Cum adic\u0103 ai cump\u0103rat-o tu?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Exact a\u0219a cum am spus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Singur\u0103?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Da.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Din banii t\u0103i?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Din banii mei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103 \u00een toat\u0103 dup\u0103-amiaza, Carmen p\u0103rea s\u0103 nu g\u0103seasc\u0103 imediat o replic\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar momentul n-a durat mult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u0218i ce dac\u0103? a spus. Mihai este so\u021bul t\u0103u. Locuie\u0219te aici de opt ani.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Corect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Atunci este \u0219i casa lui.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Este c\u0103minul lui. \u0218i vreau s\u0103 se simt\u0103 acas\u0103 aici. Dar asta nu \u00eenseamn\u0103 c\u0103 tu po\u021bi intra c\u00e2nd vrei, cu cine vrei, \u0219i s\u0103 m\u0103 tratezi ca pe femeia angajat\u0103 s\u0103 v\u0103 serveasc\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Eu nu te-am tratat ca pe o servitoare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am uitat spre pata mare de vin de pe fa\u021ba de mas\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Tocmai mi-ai poruncit s\u0103 vin s\u0103 cur\u0103\u021b dup\u0103 tine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 tu e\u0219ti gazda!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu v-am invitat eu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Diana s-a ridicat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Elena, hai s\u0103 nu exager\u0103m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am \u00eentors spre ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 A venit cu doisprezece oameni f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 m\u0103 \u00eentrebe. Am g\u0103tit, am adus scaune, am servit masa \u0219i, c\u00e2nd am \u00eencercat s\u0103 m\u0103n\u00e2nc, mi-a dat farfuria s\u0103-i \u00eenc\u0103lzesc carnea. Dup\u0103 aceea a v\u0103rsat vin \u0219i m-a chemat s\u0103 \u0219terg. Iar c\u00e2nd am refuzat, mi-a spus s\u0103-mi \u021bin gura \u0219i s\u0103 fac ce mi se spune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Diana n-a mai r\u0103spuns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Carmen \u0219i-a pus m\u00e2inile \u00een \u0219olduri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u0218i acum ce vrei? S\u0103 dai toat\u0103 familia afar\u0103 pentru c\u0103 te-ai sup\u0103rat?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pe chipul ei a ap\u0103rut imediat un z\u00e2mbet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Atunci termin\u0103 cu circul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 N-am spus c\u0103 nu pleac\u0103 nimeni.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Z\u00e2mbetul i-a disp\u0103rut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ce vrei s\u0103 spui?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 O singur\u0103 persoan\u0103 va pleca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am uitat direct la ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Tu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mihai s-a ridicat at\u00e2t de repede \u00eenc\u00e2t scaunul s-a mi\u0219cat \u00een spate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Elena!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ce?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Este mama mea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u0218tiu cine este.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Carmen a r\u00e2s scurt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu ai curaj.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am luat telefonul de pe blat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu l-am deblocat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu am amenin\u021bat-o cu nimic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Doar l-am \u021binut \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Carmen, \u021bi-am cerut s\u0103 pleci din casa mea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A \u00eencetat s\u0103 r\u00e2d\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi s-a \u00eentors spre fiul ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Mihai?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
El n-a r\u0103spuns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Mihai, chiar stai acolo \u0219i o la\u0219i s\u0103 m\u0103 dea afar\u0103?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am uitat \u0219i eu la el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu-i ceream s\u0103 aleag\u0103 \u00eentre mama lui \u0219i mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cei ceream, dup\u0103 opt ani, s\u0103 recunoasc\u0103 o limit\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mihai a deschis gura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Elena, mama doar s-a enervat\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am sim\u021bit c\u0103 mi se str\u00e2nge stomacul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Din nou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alt\u0103 explica\u021bie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alt\u0103 scuz\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Stai jos, Mihai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Poftim?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 De opt ani \u00eemi spui c\u0103 \u201ca\u0219a e ea\u201d. Ast\u0103zi nu mai rezolvi nimic spun\u00e2ndu-mi mie s\u0103 tac ca s\u0103 se lini\u0219teasc\u0103 mama ta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 N-am spus s\u0103 taci.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu. Spui \u201cElena, te rog\u201d. E acela\u0219i lucru, doar mai frumos ambalat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mihai a r\u0103mas nemi\u0219cat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Carmen \u0219i-a smuls po\u0219eta de pe sp\u0103tarul scaunului.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Foarte bine!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A pornit spre hol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Dac\u0103 doamna se crede st\u0103p\u00e2na lumii pentru c\u0103 are o cas\u0103 pe numele ei\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am dus p\u00e2n\u0103 la u\u0219a buc\u0103t\u0103riei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu m\u0103 cred st\u0103p\u00e2na lumii. Dar \u00een casa mea nu-mi spune nimeni s\u0103-mi \u021bin gura \u0219i s\u0103 execut ordine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Carmen s-a oprit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 O s\u0103 regre\u021bi asta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Poate. Dar nu voi regreta c\u0103 \u021bi-am spus, \u00een sf\u00e2r\u0219it, nu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Diana s-a ridicat imediat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Mam\u0103, vin cu tine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A trecut pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Tocmai ai distrus familia, Elena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu. Am refuzat s\u0103 mai fiu umilit\u0103 ca voi s\u0103 pute\u021bi spune c\u0103 este lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u00e2teva minute mai t\u00e2rziu, Carmen \u0219i Diana plecaser\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dup\u0103 ele au \u00eenceput s\u0103 se ridice \u0219i ceilal\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unii n-au spus nimic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
O m\u0103tu\u0219\u0103 a venit l\u00e2ng\u0103 mine \u00eenainte s\u0103 plece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu trebuia s\u0103-\u021bi vorbeasc\u0103 a\u0219a.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am dat din cap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu aveam nevoie ca cineva s\u0103 transforme dup\u0103-amiaza \u00eentr-un proces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Voiam doar s\u0103 se termine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La scurt timp, casa s-a golit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am r\u0103mas singur\u0103 cu Mihai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
El st\u0103tea l\u00e2ng\u0103 fereastr\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ai mers prea departe, a spus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am \u00eentors spre el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Eu?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ai dat-o afar\u0103 pe mama \u00een fa\u021ba tuturor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Dup\u0103 ce mi-a spus, \u00een fa\u021ba tuturor, s\u0103-mi \u021bin gura \u0219i s\u0103 fac ce mi se spune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu trebuia s\u0103 spun\u0103 asta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am r\u0103mas cu ochii la el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Mai spune o dat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ce?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 C\u0103 n-ar fi trebuit s\u0103-mi vorbeasc\u0103 a\u0219a.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A oftat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Elena\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Mihai, opt ani am a\u0219teptat s\u0103 aud de la tine propozi\u021bia asta f\u0103r\u0103 un \u201cdar\u201d dup\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A t\u0103cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu trebuia s\u0103 spun\u0103 asta, a repetat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Mul\u021bumesc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a a\u0219ezat la mas\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Dar puteai s\u0103 rezolvi altfel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Cum?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
N-a r\u0103spuns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 S\u0103-i \u00eenc\u0103lzesc carnea?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
T\u0103cere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 S\u0103-i \u0219terg vinul?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i-a cobor\u00e2t privirea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 S\u0103 accept c\u0103 intr\u0103 cu cheia c\u00e2nd vrea? S\u0103 accept c\u0103 hot\u0103r\u0103\u0219te cine vine aici? S\u0103 mai a\u0219tept \u00eenc\u0103 opt ani p\u00e2n\u0103 c\u00e2nd tu g\u0103se\u0219ti momentul potrivit s\u0103-i spui c\u0103 exist\u0103 o limit\u0103?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Am \u00eencercat doar s\u0103 nu m\u0103 bag \u00eentre voi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Asta este problema.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a uitat la mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 C\u00e2nd mama ta m\u0103 trateaz\u0103 f\u0103r\u0103 respect \u0219i tu alegi s\u0103 nu intervii, nu r\u0103m\u00e2i neutru. Doar m\u0103 la\u0219i pe mine singur\u0103 s\u0103 m\u0103 descurc cu ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103, Mihai n-a \u00eencercat s\u0103 m\u0103 contrazic\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eenceput s\u0103 str\u00e2ng masa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva minute a venit l\u00e2ng\u0103 mine \u0219i a luat farfuriile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ce facem acum?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u00cencepem cu cheia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S-a oprit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ce cheie?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Cheia pe care o are mama ta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Elena\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am uitat la el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A \u00eenchis gura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu va mai avea cheie de la casa asta. Nu va mai intra f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 sune. Nu va mai organiza mese aici f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 ne \u00eentrebe. Dac\u0103 vrea s\u0103 vin\u0103, ne sun\u0103 \u00eenainte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Este \u0219i casa mea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Bine\u00een\u021beles c\u0103 este c\u0103minul t\u0103u.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am apropiat de el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Atunci ajut\u0103-m\u0103 s\u0103 simt c\u0103 este \u0219i c\u0103minul meu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Replica aceea l-a oprit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A r\u0103mas mult timp t\u0103cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi a spus:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Am crezut c\u0103, dac\u0103 nu m\u0103 bag, p\u00e2n\u0103 la urm\u0103 v\u0103 calma\u021bi am\u00e2ndou\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Eu nu-\u021bi cer s\u0103 te cer\u021bi cu mama ta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u0218tiu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u00ce\u021bi cer s\u0103 nu m\u0103 mai sacrifici pe mine ca s\u0103 evi\u021bi tu o ceart\u0103 cu ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mihai s-a a\u0219ezat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen seara aceea, Carmen i-a trimis mesaje unul dup\u0103 altul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mie mi-a trimis opt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu i-am r\u0103spuns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A doua zi diminea\u021b\u0103, Mihai m-a g\u0103sit \u00een buc\u0103t\u0103rie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 O s\u0103-i cer cheia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am uitat la el.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 E\u0219ti sigur?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Da.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apoi a ad\u0103ugat:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ai avut dreptate. Am l\u0103sat-o prea mult timp s\u0103 cread\u0103 c\u0103 poate face orice pentru c\u0103 eu nu spun nimic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dou\u0103 zile mai t\u00e2rziu, cheia era pe masa noastr\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Carmen n-a venit trei s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2ni.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nici eu n-am c\u0103utat-o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00centr-o s\u00e2mb\u0103t\u0103 diminea\u021b\u0103, a sunat soneria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eu \u0219i Mihai ne-am uitat unul la cel\u0103lalt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
El s-a dus la u\u0219\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Carmen era \u00een prag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar ceva era diferit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu deschisese singur\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu intrase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A\u0219tepta afar\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Pot s\u0103 intru? a \u00eentrebat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mihai s-a \u00eentors spre mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am apropiat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Carmen m-a privit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 A\u0219 vrea s\u0103 vorbim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-am dat la o parte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Intr\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ne-am a\u0219ezat \u00een sufragerie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu ne-am \u00eembr\u0103\u021bi\u0219at.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu s-a transformat brusc \u00eentr-o alt\u0103 femeie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva minute, Carmen a spus:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 N-ar fi trebuit s\u0103-\u021bi vorbesc a\u0219a.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Nu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A p\u0103rut surprins\u0103 c\u0103 nu m-am gr\u0103bit s\u0103-i spun c\u0103 nu-i nimic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Dar nici tu nu trebuia s\u0103 m\u0103 faci de ru\u0219ine \u00een fa\u021ba familiei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 \u021ai-am cerut s\u0103 pleci dup\u0103 ce m-ai umilit \u00een fa\u021ba aceleia\u0219i familii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i-a str\u00e2ns buzele.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M\u0103 a\u0219teptam s\u0103 \u00eenceap\u0103 din nou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen schimb, dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva secunde, a dat \u00eencet din cap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Bine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At\u00e2t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pentru Carmen, era probabil maximumul pe care \u00eel putea spune atunci.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i mi-a fost suficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nu pentru c\u0103 toate problemele disp\u0103ruser\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ci pentru c\u0103, data urm\u0103toare c\u00e2nd a venit la noi, a sunat la u\u0219\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C\u00e2nd a vrut s\u0103 organizeze o mas\u0103 de familie, a \u00eentrebat \u00eenainte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iar cheia nu s-a mai \u00eentors niciodat\u0103 \u00een buzunarul ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
