Andrei sim\u021bea cum i se str\u00e2nge inima. De dou\u0103zeci de ani visase la clipa \u00een care va p\u0103\u0219i din nou \u00een curtea casei p\u0103rinte\u0219ti, iar acum totul se n\u0103ruia \u00eentr-o clip\u0103. \u00cen loc de lacrimi de bucurie, \u00eel \u00eent\u00e2mpinau cuvinte grele, priviri pline de ur\u0103 \u0219i repro\u0219uri adunate ca pietrele aruncate \u00een sufletul lui.<\/p>\n
Se uit\u0103 c\u00e2nd la tat\u0103, c\u00e2nd la mam\u0103, ne\u00een\u021beleg\u00e2nd ce s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat. Copilul care plecase odat\u0103 din sat cu un geamantan mic \u0219i un vis mare de a-\u0219i face un rost \u00een lume, se \u00eentorsese acum ca un str\u0103in.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Spune\u021bi-mi, v\u0103 rog, ce-am f\u0103cut? \u2013 glasul \u00eei tremura. \u2013 Am gre\u0219it, dar cum?<\/p>\n
Dumitre Petrovici se \u00eentoarse spre el \u0219i oft\u0103 ad\u00e2nc, de parc\u0103 purta povara unei vie\u021bi \u00eentregi.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Ai uitat, m\u0103i, ce-ai f\u0103cut? \u2013 zise el printre din\u021bi. \u2013 \u021ai-aduci aminte de noaptea \u00een care a ars casa lu\u2019 Vasile?<\/p>\n
Andrei se uit\u0103 lung, ne\u00een\u021beleg\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Ce leg\u0103tur\u0103 am eu cu asta? \u2013 \u00eentreb\u0103 sincer.<\/p>\n
\u2013 To\u021bi din sat au spus c\u0103 tu ai dat foc, \u2013 spuse mama cu lacrimi \u00een ochi. \u2013 Te-au v\u0103zut acolo, beat, cu o lantern\u0103 \u0219i un bidon de benzin\u0103!<\/p>\n
Andrei \u00eenm\u0103rmuri.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Eu? Beat? Nici m\u0103car nu beam pe vremea aia! \u2013 \u00eencerc\u0103 s\u0103 explice. \u2013 Eram la gar\u0103, a doua zi plecam la \u0219coal\u0103!<\/p>\n
\u2013 A\u0219a zici tu! \u2013 r\u0103spunse tat\u0103l. \u2013 Dar Vasile a pierdut tot: casa, grajdul, animalele! \u0218i c\u00e2nd te-au c\u0103utat, ai disp\u0103rut f\u0103r\u0103 urm\u0103!<\/p>\n
\u2013 M-au luat la armat\u0103! \u2013 strig\u0103 Andrei. \u2013 Nici n-am \u0219tiut c\u0103 s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat ceva!<\/p>\n
T\u0103cerea care se l\u0103s\u0103 peste curte era grea. Doar c\u00e2inele b\u0103tr\u00e2n, legat de lan\u021b, schel\u0103l\u0103ia \u00eencet \u00een fundul gr\u0103dinii.<\/p>\n
Mama \u00ee\u0219i \u0219terse ochii cu col\u021bul basmalei.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Dac\u0103 spui adev\u0103rul, de ce n-ai scris despre asta? \u2013 \u00eentreb\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Am scris, mam\u0103! Am scris zeci de scrisori! \u2013 strig\u0103 Andrei. \u2013 Dar n-a\u021bi primit niciuna, a\u0219a-i?<\/p>\n
Dumitre Petrovici se uit\u0103 la el cu o privire schimbat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Nu\u2026 n-a ajuns nimic\u2026 \u2013 spuse \u00eencet. \u2013 Po\u0219ta\u0219ul ne-a spus c\u0103 n-ai mai dat niciun semn.<\/p>\n
Andrei \u00ee\u0219i mu\u0219c\u0103 buza, \u00eencerc\u00e2nd s\u0103-\u0219i \u021bin\u0103 lacrimile.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Tat\u0103\u2026 eu am fost trimis departe, \u00een construc\u021bii. Am muncit prin toate col\u021burile \u021b\u0103rii, ca un c\u00e2ine. Am str\u00e2ns bani, am visat mereu s\u0103 m\u0103 \u00eentorc \u0219i s\u0103 v\u0103 pun acoperi\u0219 nou la cas\u0103. Uite\u2026 \u2013 scoase din buzunar o bancnot\u0103 mototolit\u0103. \u2013 Am adus tot ce am, 40.000 de lei. Dar nu credeam c\u0103 m\u0103 ve\u021bi primi a\u0219a\u2026<\/p>\n
Mama izbucni \u00een pl\u00e2ns. Tat\u0103l r\u0103mase nemi\u0219cat. O clip\u0103, p\u0103rea c\u0103 \u00eentreaga lume se oprise.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Poate am gre\u0219it, \u2013 \u0219opti Dumitre Petrovici. \u2013 Poate am fost prea aspru\u2026 Dar satul a vorbit, iar noi am crezut.<\/p>\n
Andrei ridic\u0103 privirea spre cer.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Nu mai conteaz\u0103, tat\u0103\u2026 Conteaz\u0103 doar c\u0103 m-am \u00eentors acas\u0103.<\/p>\n
Atunci, mama se apropie, cu pa\u0219i nesiguri, \u0219i-l cuprinse \u00een bra\u021be.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Ai crescut, b\u0103iatul meu\u2026 \u0219i eu n-am fost acolo s\u0103 te v\u0103d\u2026<\/p>\n
Tat\u0103l \u00ee\u0219i scoase cureaua, o privi, apoi o arunc\u0103 pe prag.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Ai dreptate. Gata cu trecutul. S\u0103 fim din nou o familie.<\/p>\n
Andrei \u00eenchise ochii. Sim\u021bea c\u0103 toat\u0103 greutatea anilor se ridic\u0103 de pe umeri. Poarta casei sc\u00e2r\u021b\u00e2i u\u0219or, l\u0103s\u00e2nd v\u00e2ntul s\u0103 aduc\u0103 mirosul de f\u00e2n \u0219i amintiri.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 dou\u0103zeci de ani de durere, \u00een sf\u00e2r\u0219it, se \u00eentorsese acas\u0103 cu adev\u0103rat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
