Nu mai auzeam nimic. Parc\u0103 cineva \u00eemi pusese vat\u0103 \u00een urechi.<\/p>\n
\u201eCe\u2026 ce \u021bi-a promis?\u201d, am \u00eentrebat, cu o voce care nici mie nu mi s-a p\u0103rut a mea.<\/p>\n
Ana a tras aer ad\u00e2nc \u00een piept. Avea deja \u0219aptesprezece ani, dar \u00een clipa aia ar\u0103ta din nou ca feti\u021ba de cinci ani care se ag\u0103\u021ba de piciorul meu.<\/p>\n
\u201eMi-a promis c\u0103 o s\u0103 am o via\u021b\u0103 adev\u0103rat\u0103. C\u0103 nu o s\u0103 mai tr\u0103im de pe o zi pe alta. C\u0103 o s\u0103 merg la o facultate bun\u0103, c\u0103 o s\u0103 am bani, ma\u0219in\u0103\u2026 tot.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum ceva se rupe \u00een mine.<\/p>\n
\u201eCine este, Ana?\u201d, am insistat. \u201eSpune-mi cine.\u201d<\/p>\n
A l\u0103sat capul \u00een jos.<\/p>\n
\u201eEste\u2026 domnul Mihai<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n Am sim\u021bit c\u0103 m\u0103 love\u0219te cineva cu un baros \u00een piept.<\/p>\n Mihai.<\/p>\n Proprietarul spa\u021biului \u00een care aveam atelierul. Omul c\u0103ruia \u00eei pl\u0103team chirie \u00een fiecare lun\u0103, la zi. Omul care venea din c\u00e2nd \u00een c\u00e2nd s\u0103-\u0219i lustruiasc\u0103 pantofii \u0219i care o \u0219tia pe Ana de mic\u0103.<\/p>\n \u201eMi-a spus c\u0103 a aflat de mine de cur\u00e2nd\u201d, a continuat ea. \u201eC\u0103 a fost t\u00e2n\u0103r \u0219i prost. C\u0103 i-a fost fric\u0103. Dar acum vrea s\u0103 repare tot.\u201d<\/p>\n M-am ridicat \u00eencet de pe scaun. M\u00e2inile \u00eemi tremurau.<\/p>\n \u201e\u0218i\u2026 ce \u021bi-a promis exact?\u201d, am \u00eentrebat din nou.<\/p>\n \u201eC\u0103 o s\u0103 m\u0103 ia la el. C\u0103 o s\u0103-mi lase casa. C\u0103 o s\u0103 m\u0103 treac\u0103 \u00een acte. C\u0103 o s\u0103-mi pl\u0103teasc\u0103 studiile. Tot.\u201d<\/p>\n Am r\u00e2s scurt. Un r\u00e2s amar.<\/p>\n \u201e\u0218i eu ce sunt, Ana?\u201d, am \u00eentrebat. \u201eCe am fost pentru tine to\u021bi anii \u0103\u0219tia?\u201d<\/p>\n Lacrimile i-au curs pe obraji.<\/p>\n \u201eE\u0219ti tat\u0103l meu\u2026 dar el e tat\u0103l meu adev\u0103rat.\u201d<\/p>\n Cuv\u00e2ntul \u0103la, \u201eadev\u0103rat\u201d, m-a durut mai tare dec\u00e2t orice.<\/p>\n Nu am \u021bipat. Nu am f\u0103cut scandal. Am dat din cap \u0219i am spus doar at\u00e2t:<\/p>\n \u201eDac\u0103 asta \u00ee\u021bi dore\u0219ti, n-o s\u0103 te opresc.\u201d<\/p>\n \u00cen seara aceea, dup\u0103 ce s-a dus \u00een camer\u0103, am stat mult timp \u00een atelier, cu luminile stinse. M-am g\u00e2ndit la Laura. La promisiunea f\u0103cut\u0103.<\/p>\n Dou\u0103 zile mai t\u00e2rziu, Mihai a venit la mine.<\/p>\n \u201e\u0218tiu c\u0103 e greu\u201d, a spus el, calm. \u201eDar e s\u00e2nge din s\u00e2ngele meu.\u201d<\/p>\n L-am privit drept \u00een ochi.<\/p>\n \u201eUnde ai fost \u0219aptesprezece ani?\u201d, l-am \u00eentrebat.<\/p>\n N-a \u0219tiut ce s\u0103 r\u0103spund\u0103.<\/p>\n Ana s-a mutat la el dup\u0103 o s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n Casa a fost goal\u0103. Prea t\u0103cut\u0103.<\/p>\n Au trecut luni.<\/p>\n \u00centr-o diminea\u021b\u0103, cineva a b\u0103tut la u\u0219a atelierului. Era Ana.<\/p>\n Pl\u00e2ngea.<\/p>\n \u201eM-a min\u021bit\u201d, a spus. \u201eTotul era pe h\u00e2rtie. Promisiuni. Niciun act. Niciun ban. A vrut doar s\u0103-\u0219i spele con\u0219tiin\u021ba.\u201d<\/p>\n Am deschis bra\u021bele f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 spun nimic.<\/p>\n A intrat, s-a lipit de mine \u0219i a pl\u00e2ns a\u0219a cum nu mai pl\u00e2nsese niciodat\u0103.<\/p>\n \u201eTat\u0103\u2026 iart\u0103-m\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n Am str\u00e2ns-o la piept.<\/p>\n \u201eNu ai ce s\u0103-mi ceri iertare.\u201d<\/p>\n Ast\u0103zi, Ana e student\u0103. Munce\u0219te part-time. Eu sunt tot \u00een atelier.<\/p>\n Nu avem mult.<\/p>\n Dar avem adev\u0103rul.<\/p>\n \u0218i uneori, asta valoreaz\u0103 mai mult dec\u00e2t orice promisiune.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Nu mai auzeam nimic.
