Pa\u0219ii lui Andrei au sunat pe marmura de la intrare ca ni\u0219te lovituri de ciocan. Sala a \u00eenceput s\u0103 se lini\u0219teasc\u0103 f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103-\u0219i dea seama de ce. Unii invita\u021bi s-au \u00eentors instinctiv, sim\u021bind schimbarea din aer.<\/p>\n
U\u0219ile mari s-au deschis larg.<\/p>\n
Andrei a intrat.<\/p>\n
Nu era \u00eembr\u0103cat ostentativ, dar costumul \u00eei venea perfect, iar privirea \u00eei era limpede \u0219i grea. Genul de privire care nu cere explica\u021bii. Le impune.<\/p>\n
Mama a fost prima care l-a observat. Paharul i-a tremurat \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103. Tata a \u00eenghi\u021bit \u00een sec, uit\u00e2ndu-se la el ca la o n\u0103luc\u0103. Irina a \u00eencremenit, cu z\u00e2mbetul \u00eenghe\u021bat pe fa\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eAna\u201d, a spus Andrei calm, dar suficient de tare \u00eenc\u00e2t s\u0103 aud\u0103 toat\u0103 lumea, \u201evino l\u00e2ng\u0103 mine.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am p\u0103\u0219it \u00een sal\u0103 cu rochia p\u0103tat\u0103, cu spatele drept. Murmurul a crescut. Oamenii se uitau c\u00e2nd la mine, c\u00e2nd la el.<\/p>\n
Ginerele Irinei s-a apropiat, cu un z\u00e2mbet lingu\u0219itor.
\u201eDomnule\u2026 Andrei, nu-i a\u0219a? Sunt Radu Pop. Ne-am \u00eent\u00e2lnit la prezentarea de la Carpatia Invest.\u201d<\/p>\n
Andrei l-a privit scurt.
\u201e\u0218tiu cine e\u0219ti.\u201d<\/p>\n
Apoi s-a \u00eentors spre mama mea.
\u201eA\u021bi pus-o pe fiica dumneavoastr\u0103 afar\u0103, \u00een ploaie?\u201d<\/p>\n
Mama a \u00eencercat s\u0103 r\u00e2d\u0103.
\u201eA fost\u2026 o ne\u00een\u021belegere. Ea a insistat.\u201d<\/p>\n
Andrei a scos calm un plic din buzunarul interior al sacoului \u0219i l-a pus pe mas\u0103, l\u00e2ng\u0103 tort.
\u201eAici e dovada transferului. 125.000 de lei. F\u0103r\u0103 banii \u0103\u0219tia, muzica, sala \u0219i cateringul nu existau.\u201d<\/p>\n
T\u0103cere.<\/p>\n
\u201eSo\u021bia mea v-a salvat nunta\u201d, a continuat el. \u201e\u0218i voi a\u021bi pus-o l\u00e2ng\u0103 gunoi.\u201d<\/p>\n
Irina a izbucnit.
\u201eEa ne-a min\u021bit! Ne-a f\u0103cut de r\u00e2s spun\u00e2nd c\u0103 e m\u0103ritat\u0103 cu un muncitor!\u201d<\/p>\n
Andrei s-a apropiat de ea, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 ridice vocea.
\u201eEu am ales s\u0103 muncesc pe p\u0103m\u00e2nt. Pentru c\u0103 \u00eemi place. Dar nu asta m\u0103 define\u0219te.\u201d<\/p>\n
S-a \u00eentors spre invita\u021bi.
\u201eContractele cu firma domnului Pop sunt, de azi, suspendate.\u201d<\/p>\n
Radu s-a albit la fa\u021b\u0103.
\u201eNu pute\u021bi face asta\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201eBa da\u201d, a spus Andrei simplu.<\/p>\n
A luat haina mea de pe sp\u0103tarul unui scaun \u0219i mi-a pus-o pe umeri.
\u201eHai acas\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am ie\u0219it \u00eempreun\u0103, sub privirile lor goale. Afar\u0103, ploaia se oprise.<\/p>\n
\u00cen ma\u0219in\u0103, Andrei mi-a str\u00e2ns m\u00e2na.
\u201eN-ai pierdut nimic azi\u201d, mi-a spus. \u201eDoar ai v\u0103zut adev\u0103rul.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u0218i pentru prima dat\u0103 \u00een via\u021b\u0103, am sim\u021bit c\u0103 sunt exact unde trebuie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
