Strig\u0103tul a fost slab, dar clar. Un sunet care nu putea veni dec\u00e2t de la cineva care \u00eenc\u0103 se \u021binea de via\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ana! \u2014 a urlat Ion, cu vocea rupt\u0103.<\/p>\n
Pompierii s-au mi\u0219cat mai repede. O fr\u00e2nghie a fost cobor\u00e2t\u0103, apoi alta. Cineva a strigat comenzi scurte, ap\u0103sate. Timpul p\u0103rea c\u0103 se scurge \u00een pic\u0103turi grele.<\/p>\n
Ion sim\u021bea cum i se \u00eenmoaie genunchii. \u0218ase luni de a\u0219teptare, de speran\u021be moarte, de nop\u021bi \u00een care vorbea cu o camer\u0103 goal\u0103. \u0218ase luni care se adunau acum \u00eentr-un singur minut.<\/p>\n
Ioana i-a prins m\u00e2na. Avea palma cald\u0103.
\u2014 Rezist\u0103. Mai pu\u021bin.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De unde o cuno\u0219ti? \u2014 a \u00eentrebat el, cu vocea fr\u00e2nt\u0103.<\/p>\n
Feti\u021ba a ezitat.
\u2014 Ne-am \u00eent\u00e2lnit c\u00e2nd eram mic\u0103. Ea m-a ajutat.<\/p>\n
Ion a sim\u021bit un nod \u00een g\u00e2t. Nu-\u0219i amintea de nicio Ioana Marin, dar \u0219tia sigur c\u0103 Ana ar fi ajutat pe oricine.<\/p>\n
Un pompier a ap\u0103rut la marginea f\u00e2nt\u00e2nii.
\u2014 O avem! E sl\u0103bit\u0103, dar respir\u0103!<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd au scos-o, Ana era plin\u0103 de zg\u00e2rieturi, cu fa\u021ba murdar\u0103 \u0219i buzele cr\u0103pate. Dar era vie. Ochii i s-au deschis \u0219i, c\u00e2nd l-a v\u0103zut pe tat\u0103l ei, a z\u00e2mbit.<\/p>\n
Ion a c\u0103zut \u00een genunchi l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea.
\u2014 Sunt aici, puiule\u2026 sunt aici.<\/p>\n
Ambulan\u021ba a pornit cu sirenele aprinse. Ion a urcat l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea, \u021bin\u00e2ndu-i m\u00e2na. \u00cen haosul acela, \u0219i-a amintit brusc de Ioana.<\/p>\n
S-a uitat \u00een jur.
\u2014 Unde e feti\u021ba?<\/p>\n
Nimeni nu \u0219tia. Pompierii au dat din cap. Maria, recep\u021bionista, nu era acolo. Parc\u0103 Ioana se topise \u00een aer.<\/p>\n
Mai t\u00e2rziu, la spital, Ana a adormit lini\u0219tit\u0103. Medicii au spus c\u0103 mai avea pu\u021bin \u0219i nu ar fi rezistat.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd Ion a \u00eentrebat de Ioana Marin, asistenta s-a uitat ciudat la el.
\u2014 Domnule\u2026 numele acesta apare \u00eentr-un dosar vechi. O feti\u021b\u0103\u2026 decedat\u0103 acum zece ani. A c\u0103zut \u00eentr-o f\u00e2nt\u00e2n\u0103, chiar la La Stejari.<\/p>\n
Ion a sim\u021bit cum \u00eel trece un fior rece.<\/p>\n
\u00cen zilele urm\u0103toare, adev\u0103rul a ie\u0219it la iveal\u0103. Ana fusese atacat\u0103 de doi ho\u021bi care se ascundeau \u00een zon\u0103. O aruncaser\u0103 \u00een f\u00e2nt\u00e2n\u0103, crez\u00e2nd c\u0103 e moart\u0103. Urmele de foc, pietrele \u2014 totul se lega.<\/p>\n
Ion a pl\u0103tit s\u0103 fie astupat\u0103 f\u00e2nt\u00e2na. A pus o cruce mic\u0103 l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea, din lemn simplu. Pe ea a scris un singur nume: Ioana<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Via\u021ba nu a mai fost la fel. Dar era din nou via\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n Ion a \u00eenceput s\u0103 ajute copii abandona\u021bi. A finan\u021bat centre, a pl\u0103tit burse, a f\u0103cut lucruri m\u0103runte, f\u0103r\u0103 pres\u0103.<\/p>\n \u0218tia c\u0103 unele datorii nu se pl\u0103tesc cu bani.<\/p>\n \u00centr-o sear\u0103, Ana l-a \u00eentrebat: Ion s-a uitat pe fereastr\u0103, unde luna plin\u0103 lumina curtea. Ana a z\u00e2mbit \u0219i a str\u00e2ns p\u0103tura. \u0218i n-au uitat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Strig\u0103tul a fost slab, dar clar.
