Tonia sim\u021bea cum \u00eei urc\u0103 s\u00e2ngele \u00een obraji. Nu era femeie rea, dar ura lipsa de bun-sim\u021b. Se uit\u0103 la farfuriile goale \u0219i la z\u00e2mbetele largi ale \u201eoaspe\u021bilor\u201d \u0219i \u00eencerc\u0103 s\u0103-\u0219i adune cuvintele.<\/p>\n
\u2014 P\u0103i\u2026 \u0219i c\u00e2t ave\u021bi de g\u00e2nd s\u0103 sta\u021bi? \u00eentreb\u0103 ea, tr\u0103g\u00e2nd aer ad\u00e2nc \u00een piept.<\/p>\n
\u2014 O s\u0103 vedem, spuse veri\u0219oara ei, \u00eentinz\u00e2ndu-se pe sp\u0103tarul scaunului. Poate o s\u0103 st\u0103m p\u00e2n\u0103 la toamn\u0103. Aerul de aici e superb!<\/p>\n
Grigore se uit\u0103 lung la Tonia, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 spun\u0103 nimic. O cuno\u0219tea prea bine. C\u00e2nd \u00eei tremura col\u021bul gurii, \u00eensemna c\u0103 era la un pas de a r\u0103bufni.<\/p>\n
\u2014 P\u0103i, s\u0103 nu v\u0103 deranja\u021bi, zise ea printre din\u021bi. Avem \u0219i noi un pic de treab\u0103 la c\u00e2mp, dar sigur v\u0103 descurca\u021bi.<\/p>\n
\u00cei l\u0103s\u0103 acolo, se duse \u00een gr\u0103din\u0103 \u0219i se apuc\u0103 de smuls buruienile cu o vitez\u0103 de parc\u0103 voia s\u0103 smulg\u0103 \u0219i nervii din ea. Grigore veni dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva minute, cu \u0219apca \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Tonio, las\u0103-i. Nu or s\u0103 stea mult, poate se plictisesc.
\u2014 Nu se plictisesc, Grigore. Oamenii \u0103\u0219tia nu s-au plictisit niciodat\u0103 de c\u00e2nd \u00eei \u0219tiu. Le place munca\u2026 dar f\u0103cut\u0103 de al\u021bii!<\/p>\n
Seara, casa mirosea din nou a m\u00e2ncare. Tonia preg\u0103tise o tocan\u0103 simpl\u0103, dar oaspe\u021bii se plimbau prin curte ca la pensiune. Unul fuma l\u00e2ng\u0103 cote\u021b, altul se juca pe telefon, iar veri\u0219oara ei, \u00een halat sub\u021bire, \u00ee\u0219i f\u0103cea poze cu c\u00e2mpul din spate.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce frumos ave\u021bi aici! Trebuia s\u0103 venim mai devreme, zise ea, r\u00e2z\u00e2nd. Poate m\u0103 mut \u0219i eu la \u021bar\u0103, dac\u0103-mi g\u0103sesc un gospodar dr\u0103gu\u021b.<\/p>\n
Tonia \u00ee\u0219i mu\u0219c\u0103 buza. Gospodarul era al ei \u0219i doar ideea c\u0103 glumea a\u0219a o f\u0103cea s\u0103 simt\u0103 c\u0103-i fierbe s\u00e2ngele.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 dou\u0103 zile, frigiderul era gol. Rudele nu aduseser\u0103 nimic, dar m\u00e2ncau ca la nunt\u0103. Diminea\u021ba ceruser\u0103 cafea de import, pr\u00e2nzul trebuia s\u0103 fie cu \u201eceva mai sofisticat\u201d, iar seara, vin ro\u0219u.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd Tonia le-a zis c\u0103 vinul lor e f\u0103cut \u00een cas\u0103, au str\u00e2mbat din nas:
\u2014 Nu, nu, noi nu bem din \u0103sta. Am stomacul sensibil.<\/p>\n
\u00cen noaptea aceea, Tonia n-a dormit. Se \u00eenv\u00e2rtea \u00een pat \u0219i-l auzea pe Grigore sfor\u0103ind lini\u0219tit. La un moment dat, s-a ridicat, s-a uitat pe geam \u0219i a z\u00e2mbit. Avea un plan.<\/p>\n
Diminea\u021ba, a preg\u0103tit un mic dejun bogat, cu ou\u0103, ca\u0219, ro\u0219ii din gr\u0103din\u0103 \u0219i oale pline de lapte cald. Rudele s-au a\u0219ezat la mas\u0103 r\u00e2z\u00e2nd \u0219i l\u0103ud\u00e2nd-o.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce gospodin\u0103 e\u0219ti, Tonio! Nici la hotel nu m\u00e2nc\u0103m a\u0219a!<\/p>\n
\u2014 A\u0219a-i, dar \u0219ti\u021bi ceva? De m\u00e2ine o s\u0103 m\u00e2nca\u021bi \u0219i mai bine. Am vorbit la prim\u0103rie, cic\u0103 se caut\u0103 oameni pentru o tab\u0103r\u0103 de voluntariat la c\u00e2mp. Trei mese pe zi, cazare \u0219i aer curat.<\/p>\n
Rudele au amu\u021bit.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cum adic\u0103\u2026 voluntariat? \u00eentreb\u0103 veri\u0219oara.
\u2014 P\u0103i, dac\u0103 tot v-a\u021bi mutat la \u021bar\u0103 \u00een concediu, s\u0103 sim\u021bi\u021bi via\u021ba adev\u0103rat\u0103 de aici. Cu munc\u0103, cu sudoare, cu demnitate!<\/p>\n
Grigore aproape s-a \u00eenecat cu ceaiul. Tonia vorbea rar \u0219i ap\u0103sat, iar vocea ei nu l\u0103sa loc de glume.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103-amiaza, una dintre rude a \u00eenceput s\u0103 caute scuze: c\u0103 are treab\u0103 \u00een ora\u0219, c\u0103 trebuie s\u0103 duc\u0103 ma\u0219ina la service. P\u00e2n\u0103 seara, toate bagajele erau f\u0103cute.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu v\u0103 sup\u0103ra\u021bi, Tonio, dar trebuie s\u0103 plec\u0103m. A ap\u0103rut ceva urgent.<\/p>\n
\u2014 A, sigur, nicio problem\u0103! zise Tonia z\u00e2mbind. Dar s\u0103 mai veni\u021bi\u2026 c\u00e2nd anun\u021ba\u021bi din timp!<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd poarta s-a \u00eenchis, s-a l\u0103sat o lini\u0219te dulce peste curte. Doar v\u00e2ntul b\u0103tea u\u0219or printre meri.<\/p>\n
Tonia s-a a\u0219ezat pe banc\u0103, a oftat \u0219i a r\u00e2s singur\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Grigore, s\u0103 \u0219tii c\u0103 am avut oaspe\u021bi de lux, dar ne-au costat mai scump dec\u00e2t o vacan\u021b\u0103 la mare!<\/p>\n
\u2014 A\u0219a e, femeie, dar uite ce bine e acum. Doar noi, lini\u0219tea \u0219i tocan\u0103 cald\u0103.<\/p>\n
Ea s-a uitat spre cerul portocaliu \u0219i a murmurat:
\u2014 Uneori, lini\u0219tea valoreaz\u0103 mai mult dec\u00e2t toate polite\u021burile din lume.<\/p>\n
\u0218i, pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 multe zile, \u00een curtea lor mic\u0103 de la \u021bar\u0103 s-a auzit din nou r\u00e2sul sincer al Antoniei \u2014 curat, ca o ploaie de var\u0103 dup\u0103 o furtun\u0103 de musafiri nepofti\u021bi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
