Casa r\u0103m\u0103sese \u00eencremenit\u0103, ca \u0219i cum aerul se \u00eengro\u0219ase \u0219i nimeni nu mai putea respira. Eu \u00eenc\u0103 sim\u021beam m\u00e2na lui Narcis \u00een jurul degetelor mele \u2014 cald\u0103, ferm\u0103, o ancor\u0103 \u00eentr-un ocean \u00eenvolburat.<\/p>\n
Mama \u00eencerca s\u0103 spun\u0103 ceva, dar cuvintele \u00eei r\u0103m\u00e2neau prinse \u00een g\u00e2t. \u00cen via\u021ba ei, nu \u00eent\u00e2lnise pe cineva c\u0103ruia s\u0103 nu-i poat\u0103 arunca replici t\u0103ioase. Iar acum st\u0103tea mut\u0103, ca o elev\u0103 prins\u0103 copiind.<\/p>\n
\u201eAna, noi doar\u2026\u201d a b\u00e2iguit ea.<\/p>\n
\u201eNu\u201d, a spus Narcis, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 ridice tonul, dar suficient c\u00e2t s\u0103 \u00eenchid\u0103 subiectul.<\/p>\n
M-a tras u\u0219or spre el, ca \u0219i cum ar fi vrut s\u0103 m\u0103 protejeze de orice privire \u00een\u021bep\u0103toare. Eu \u00eenc\u0103 nu reu\u0219eam s\u0103 procesez ce se \u00eent\u00e2mpla. Totul era prea mult, prea repede, prea nea\u0219teptat.<\/p>\n
\u201eHai\u201d, a \u0219optit el. \u201eAm stat suficient aici.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am ie\u0219it din cas\u0103 f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 m\u0103 uit \u00een urm\u0103. P\u00e2n\u0103 \u0219i aerul rece de afar\u0103 mi s-a p\u0103rut un dar. Narcis mi-a deschis portiera ma\u0219inii lui, un SUV negru, discret, dar evident scump. A a\u0219teptat s\u0103 m\u0103 a\u0219ez, apoi s-a a\u0219ezat \u0219i el la volan.<\/p>\n
Abia c\u00e2nd am r\u0103mas singuri, mi s-au umezit ochii.<\/p>\n
\u201e\u00cemi pare r\u0103u c\u0103 ai v\u0103zut\u2026 asta\u201d, am spus, vocea tremur\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
El a \u00eentins m\u00e2na \u0219i mi-a \u0219ters o lacrim\u0103 cu degetul, mi\u0219care at\u00e2t de tandr\u0103 \u00eenc\u00e2t aproape m-a rupt \u00een dou\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eAna, eu te cunosc. \u0218tiu cine e\u0219ti. Nu m\u0103 intereseaz\u0103 ce spun ei.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201eDar sunt familia mea\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201eO familie nu te sf\u00e2\u0219ie ca s\u0103 se simt\u0103 ea mai bine.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am \u00eenchis ochii un moment. \u00cen ad\u00e2ncul sufletului, \u0219tiam c\u0103 are dreptate. Doar c\u0103, uneori, adev\u0103rul doare mai tare dec\u00e2t orice ran\u0103.<\/p>\n
Ma\u0219ina a pornit lin, iar ora\u0219ul se \u00eentindea \u00een fa\u021ba noastr\u0103. Trecuser\u0103m pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 blocuri vechi, magazine de cartier, oameni gr\u0103bi\u021bi, copii care alergau pe trotuar \u2014 totul ar\u0103ta normal, firesc. Singurul lucru care nu era firesc era via\u021ba mea.<\/p>\n
Narcis m-a prins din nou de m\u00e2n\u0103. \u201eNu te mai \u00eentorci acolo \u00eembr\u0103cat\u0103 \u00een zdren\u021be. Azi alegi tu ce vrei s\u0103 por\u021bi. Tot ce vrei.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am r\u00e2s slab. \u201eE scump.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201e\u0218i tu meri\u021bi.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dou\u0103 cuvinte simple, dar at\u00e2t de rare \u00een via\u021ba mea \u00eenc\u00e2t mi s-a str\u00e2ns stomacul.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd am ajuns la un magazin elegant din centrul ora\u0219ului, m-am oprit \u00een prag.<\/p>\n
\u201eNarcis, eu nu intru aici\u2026 Oamenii ca mine nu intr\u0103 aici.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201eAtunci s\u0103 \u00eenve\u021be oamenii de aici s\u0103 se obi\u0219nuiasc\u0103\u201d, a spus calm, deschiz\u00e2nd u\u0219a.<\/p>\n
V\u00e2nz\u0103toarele s-au \u00eendreptat spre noi, cu z\u00e2mbete politicoase, dar priviri surprinse. Narcis a spus doar at\u00e2t:<\/p>\n
\u201eSo\u021bia mea are nevoie de o garderob\u0103 complet\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cuv\u00e2ntul so\u021bia<\/em> mi-a \u00eenc\u0103lzit pieptul \u00eentr-un fel ciudat, nou, frumos.<\/p>\n Au \u00eenceput s\u0103 aduc\u0103 rochii, c\u0103m\u0103\u0219i, fuste, pantofi. La \u00eenceput, tremuram c\u00e2nd probam orice. Parc\u0103 auzeam \u00een cap vocea mamei:<\/p>\n \u201eNu e pentru tine. Nu meri\u021bi. Nu te min\u021bi.\u201d<\/p>\n Dar Narcis era acolo, la doi pa\u0219i, privind doar la mine, nu la pre\u021buri, nu la etichete.<\/p>\n \u201eAsta e\u0219ti tu\u201d, \u00eemi spunea c\u00e2nd z\u00e2mbeam \u00een oglind\u0103.<\/p>\n \u0218i, pentru prima dat\u0103 \u00een via\u021b\u0103, am \u00eenceput s\u0103-l cred.<\/p>\n Dup\u0103 dou\u0103 ore, ie\u0219eam din magazin cu mai multe pungi dec\u00e2t v\u0103zusem vreodat\u0103 la cineva. Narcis a pl\u0103tit tot, cu un calm de parc\u0103 era la pia\u021b\u0103 dup\u0103 p\u00e2ine.<\/p>\n \u00cen ma\u0219in\u0103, mi-am str\u00e2ns genunchii la piept.<\/p>\n \u201eDe ce faci toate astea pentru mine?\u201d<\/p>\n El a pornit motorul \u0219i m-a privit.<\/p>\n \u201ePentru c\u0103 te iubesc. \u0218i pentru c\u0103 nu vreau s\u0103 te mai v\u0103d niciodat\u0103 mic\u0219or\u00e2ndu-te \u00een fa\u021ba unor oameni care nu te cunosc cu adev\u0103rat.\u201d<\/p>\n Respira\u021bia mi s-a t\u0103iat. Cuvintele lui m-au lovit direct \u00een inim\u0103.<\/p>\n \u0218i atunci am \u00een\u021beles.<\/p>\n Nu hainele noi schimbau ceva. Nici magazinul, nici privirile uimite ale celor din jur.<\/p>\n M\u0103 schimbam eu.<\/p>\n \u00cen sf\u00e2r\u0219it, cineva m\u0103 vedea.<\/p>\n \u0218i mai ales\u2026 eu \u00eencepeam s\u0103 m\u0103 v\u0103d.<\/p>\n C\u00e2nd am ajuns acas\u0103, mama era \u00eenc\u0103 \u00een u\u0219\u0103, palid\u0103.
