A ridicat-o cu grij\u0103, sprijinind-o de bra\u021bul lui. Era u\u0219oar\u0103, mult prea u\u0219oar\u0103 pentru un om \u00een via\u021b\u0103. O sim\u021bea cum tremur\u0103, nu doar de frig, ci \u0219i de team\u0103. A tras-o din balt\u0103 \u0219i a a\u0219ezat-o pe banc\u0103, sub acoperi\u0219ul sta\u021biei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 A\u021bi m\u00e2ncat azi? \u2014 a \u00eentrebat \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2na a cl\u0103tinat din cap.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu prea\u2026 m-am gr\u0103bit\u2026 am ame\u021bit\u2026<\/p>\n
Radu a c\u0103utat din priviri ajutor. Nimeni. Oamenii continuau s\u0103 treac\u0103, cu telefoanele lipite de urechi, cu pa\u0219i mari, cu vie\u021bile lor urgente.<\/p>\n
A scos telefonul \u0219i a sunat la ambulan\u021b\u0103. I-a explicat unde se afl\u0103, ce se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103. Apoi a r\u0103mas l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea, \u021bin\u00e2ndu-i m\u00e2na.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cum v\u0103 cheam\u0103? \u2014 a \u00eentrebat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Elena\u2026 \u2014 a spus ea slab. \u2014 Elena Stoica.<\/p>\n
Radu i-a z\u00e2mbit.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Eu sunt Radu. O s\u0103 fie bine, doamn\u0103 Elena.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd ambulan\u021ba a ajuns, ploaia \u00eenc\u0103 nu se oprise. Asisten\u021bii au cobor\u00e2t repede, au pus-o pe targ\u0103, au verificat tensiunea. Unul dintre ei s-a uitat la Radu.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Sunte\u021bi rud\u0103?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu. Doar\u2026 am ajutat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 A\u021bi f\u0103cut bine. Era deshidratat\u0103 \u0219i foarte sl\u0103bit\u0103.<\/p>\n
U\u0219a ambulan\u021bei s-a \u00eenchis, iar ma\u0219ina a pornit cu sirena pornit\u0103. Radu a r\u0103mas pe trotuar, ud p\u00e2n\u0103 la piele, cu dosarul \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
S-a uitat la ceas.<\/p>\n
Era prea t\u00e2rziu.<\/p>\n
A ajuns la cl\u0103direa firmei cu aproape o or\u0103 \u00eent\u00e2rziere. Recep\u021bionista l-a privit politicos, dar rece.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Interviurile s-au \u00eencheiat, domnule.<\/p>\n
Radu a \u00eencercat s\u0103 explice, dar \u0219tia deja. A mul\u021bumit \u0219i a ie\u0219it.<\/p>\n
Ploaia se oprise. Dar \u00een pieptul lui era un gol greu.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd a ajuns acas\u0103, mama l-a privit \u0219i a \u00een\u021beles totul dintr-o singur\u0103 privire.<\/p>\n
\u2014 N-a fost s\u0103 fie? \u2014 a \u00eentrebat \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
Radu a dat din cap.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Am ajutat o b\u0103tr\u00e2n\u0103\u2026 \u0219i am pierdut interviul.<\/p>\n
Mama l-a str\u00e2ns \u00een bra\u021be.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci n-ai pierdut nimic important, b\u0103iatul meu.<\/p>\n
A doua zi, telefonul a sunat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Bun\u0103 ziua, Radu Ionescu? Sunt Andrei Stoica, directorul general al firmei la care trebuia s\u0103 ave\u021bi interviu ieri.<\/p>\n
Radu a sim\u021bit cum \u00eei fuge p\u0103m\u00e2ntul de sub picioare.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mama mea a ajuns ieri la spital \u2014 a continuat vocea. \u2014 Mi-au spus c\u0103 un t\u00e2n\u0103r a ajutat-o \u00een ploaie, a stat cu ea \u0219i a chemat ambulan\u021ba. A spus doar un nume: Radu.<\/p>\n
A fost o pauz\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 C\u0103ut\u0103m oameni competen\u021bi. Dar mai ales oameni buni. V\u0103 a\u0219tept m\u00e2ine diminea\u021b\u0103. Personal.<\/p>\n
Radu a \u00eenchis telefonul cu m\u00e2inile tremur\u00e2nde.<\/p>\n
Mama lui a z\u00e2mbit, cu ochii umezi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Vezi? \u2014 a spus ea \u00eencet. \u2014 Lumea e dur\u0103. Dar inima bun\u0103 se \u00eentoarce \u00eentotdeauna acas\u0103.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
