\u2026a plecat f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 spun\u0103 un cuv\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n
Nu a tr\u00e2ntit u\u0219a, nu a alergat, nu a \u021bipat. S-a \u00eendreptat \u00eencet spre ie\u0219ire, cu pa\u0219ii ap\u0103sa\u021bi, dar hot\u0103r\u00e2\u021bi, \u00een timp ce to\u021bi o priveau ne\u0219tiind dac\u0103 s\u0103 r\u00e2d\u0103 \u00een continuare sau s\u0103 se prefac\u0103 surprin\u0219i. \u00cens\u0103 Isabela nu mai vedea pe nimeni \u2014 era ca \u0219i cum lumea se estompase, iar \u00een mintea ei ap\u0103rea un singur g\u00e2nd: \u201eAsta a fost ultima pic\u0103tur\u0103.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n A ajuns la ma\u0219in\u0103 \u0219i, cu m\u00e2inile tremur\u00e2nd, \u0219i-a privit chipul reflectat \u00een geam. Era plin\u0103 de vin, de oboseal\u0103, de lacrimi re\u021binute, dar \u0219i de o nou\u0103 expresie: hot\u0103r\u00e2re<\/strong>. A pornit motorul, a plecat \u0219i, \u00een drum spre cas\u0103, a sim\u021bit pentru prima dat\u0103 c\u0103 nu mai are de ce s\u0103 rabde nimic.<\/p>\n Ajuns\u0103 \u00een apartament, \u0219i-a scos pantofii, rochia \u0219i a f\u0103cut du\u0219, l\u0103s\u00e2nd apa s\u0103 \u00eei cure\u021be nu doar p\u0103rul, ci \u0219i sufletul. Apoi, \u00een halat, s-a a\u0219ezat la birou, a aprins o lum\u00e2nare \u0219i a scris pe o foaie alb\u0103, cu litere mari \u0219i drepte:<\/p>\n \u201eNu mai sunt proprietatea nim\u0103nui. Nu mai accept lips\u0103 de respect. Merit lini\u0219te, iubire \u0219i demnitate.\u201d<\/p>\n A pliat h\u00e2rtia, a pus-o \u00een portofel \u0219i, \u00eentr-un impuls, a \u00eenceput s\u0103 \u00eempacheteze. Nu pl\u00e2ngea, nu ezita \u2014 era ca \u0219i cum cineva \u00eei ap\u0103sase un buton pe care nu avea s\u0103-l mai opreasc\u0103 vreodat\u0103. A str\u00e2ns haine, documente, c\u00e2teva fotografii cu p\u0103rin\u021bii ei, o iconi\u021b\u0103 \u0219i un port prosop mic, cusut de bunica ei. Apoi a sunat un taxi.<\/p>\n C\u00e2nd a ajuns \u0219oferul, l-a rugat s\u0103 o duc\u0103 \u00eenapoi la pensiunea unde fusese petrecerea. Nu pentru c\u0103 se r\u0103zg\u00e2ndise, ci pentru c\u0103 mai avea ceva de f\u0103cut.<\/p>\n C\u00e2nd a intrat iar, to\u021bi au amu\u021bit. Mariana o privea cu aceea\u0219i arogan\u021b\u0103, iar Daniel p\u0103rea deranjat c\u0103 \u201e\u00eendr\u0103zne\u0219te\u201d s\u0103 revin\u0103. Isabela nu se mai temea. Nu tremura. Ochii \u00eei erau fermi, glasul simplu, dar puternic.<\/p>\n \u201eAm venit s\u0103-mi iau ceva ce mi-a\u021bi furat\u201d, a spus ea.<\/p>\n Mariana a ridicat spr\u00e2nceana. \u201eCe anume? Respectul? Trebuia s\u0103-l meri\u021bi.\u201d<\/p>\n Isabela a z\u00e2mbit scurt. \u201eNu. Mi-am venit s\u0103-mi iau via\u021ba \u00eenapoi.<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n To\u021bi au r\u0103mas mu\u021bi. F\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 a\u0219tepte reac\u021bii, ea a scos de pe deget verigheta, a pus-o pe masa plin\u0103 cu pahare, a privit \u00een ochii lui Daniel \u0219i a spus:<\/p>\n \u201eUn b\u0103rbat adev\u0103rat \u00ee\u0219i ap\u0103r\u0103 so\u021bia. Tu ai ales s\u0103 r\u00e2zi cu ceilal\u021bi. Eu aleg s\u0103 tr\u0103iesc. O femeie iubit\u0103 nu e f\u0103cut\u0103 b\u0103taie de joc. A\u0219a c\u0103\u2026 r\u0103m\u00e2i cu mama ta. V\u0103 potrivi\u021bi.\u201d<\/p>\n A \u00eentors spatele \u0219i a plecat, iar \u00een urma ei s-a ridicat o t\u0103cere grea, ca o piatr\u0103.<\/p>\n \u00cen taxi, a sim\u021bit cum \u00eei cad lacrimi pe obraji. Dar nu erau lacrimi de suferin\u021b\u0103, ci de eliberare<\/strong>. A cerut s\u0103 fie dus\u0103 la o garsonier\u0103 veche pe care o mo\u0219tenise de la o m\u0103tu\u0219\u0103 \u0219i pe care nu o folosise niciodat\u0103. A petrecut noaptea acolo, \u00eentr-un pat simplu, \u00eens\u0103 cu o lini\u0219te cum nu mai sim\u021bise de luni \u00eentregi.<\/p>\n A doua zi, s-a trezit devreme, \u0219i-a f\u0103cut un ceai \u0219i s-a privit \u00een oglind\u0103. P\u0103rul ud, f\u0103r\u0103 machiaj, ochii umfla\u021bi, dar\u2026 liber\u0103<\/strong>. \u00cen timp ce \u00ee\u0219i sorbea ceaiul, a promis cu voce tare:<\/p>\n \u201eDe azi \u00eencolo, tr\u0103iesc pentru mine. Nu pentru cine m\u0103 judec\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n \u00cen urm\u0103toarele luni, Isabela a g\u0103sit un loc de munc\u0103 \u00eentr-o mic\u0103 flor\u0103rie, unde mirosea zilnic a l\u0103cr\u0103mioare \u0219i busuioc. Era un salariu modest, \u00een jur de 3.000 de lei pe lun\u0103, dar era bani c\u00e2\u0219tiga\u021bi cu demnitate \u0219i lini\u0219te<\/strong>. \u0218i asta valora mai mult dec\u00e2t orice rochie scump\u0103 din casa fo\u0219tilor ei socri.<\/p>\n A \u00eenchiriat garsoniera, a cump\u0103rat o mas\u0103 micu\u021b\u0103, perdele noi \u0219i o ram\u0103 cu mesajul: \u201eFericirea nu st\u0103 \u00een cine te vrea, ci \u00een cine te respect\u0103.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n Cu timpul, chipul ei s-a \u00eenveselit, iar sufletul s-a vindecat.<\/p>\n Peste un an, \u00een timp ce aranja buchete, a intrat \u00een flor\u0103rie un b\u0103rbat \u00eenalt, cu m\u00e2ini de muncitor \u0219i z\u00e2mbet sincer, care a cump\u0103rat c\u00e2te o floare \u00een fiecare zi, f\u0103r\u0103 motiv \u2014 dar mereu de la ea.<\/p>\n Via\u021ba i-a ar\u0103tat c\u0103 nu trebuie s\u0103 accep\u021bi venin doar pentru c\u0103 \u00eel prime\u0219ti de la cineva \u201ede-ai casei\u201d.<\/p>\n Uneori, cel mai curajos lucru pe care \u00eel po\u021bi face este s\u0103 pleci<\/strong>, chiar \u0219i atunci c\u00e2nd toat\u0103 lumea \u00ee\u021bi spune s\u0103 r\u0103m\u00e2i.<\/p>\n Iar Isabela?
