Se auzea doar aerul condi\u021bionat \u0219i clinchetul u\u0219or al paharelor.<\/p>\n
Tata st\u0103tea drept, cu m\u00e2inile muncite a\u0219ezate pe marginea pupitrului. Costumul nu era nou, dar era curat \u0219i c\u0103lcat. \u00cel mai purtase o singur\u0103 dat\u0103, la \u00eenmorm\u00e2ntarea mamei.<\/p>\n
\u201eLucrez la salubritate de peste treizeci de ani\u201d, a continuat el. \u201eSunt gunoier. \u0218i nu mi-a fost niciodat\u0103 ru\u0219ine cu asta.\u201d<\/p>\n
C\u00e2teva capete s-au ridicat, surprinse.<\/p>\n
\u201e\u00cen fiecare diminea\u021b\u0103, \u00eenainte s\u0103 v\u0103 trezi\u021bi, eu \u0219i colegii mei suntem deja pe str\u0103zi. Ridic\u0103m ce al\u021bii arunc\u0103. Ca ora\u0219ul s\u0103 fie curat. Ca voi s\u0103 pute\u021bi merge lini\u0219ti\u021bi la munc\u0103, la \u0219coal\u0103, la restaurantele astea frumoase.\u201d<\/p>\n
A f\u0103cut o pauz\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eC\u00e2nd so\u021bia mea a murit, fata mea avea trei ani. N-am avut bani, n-am avut rela\u021bii. Am avut doar dou\u0103 m\u00e2ini \u0219i o promisiune: c\u0103 n-o s\u0103-i lipseasc\u0103 nimic.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum mi se umezesc ochii.<\/p>\n
\u201eAu fost zile c\u00e2nd am tr\u0103it din salariu \u00een salariu. Am avut luni c\u00e2nd dup\u0103 chirie ne r\u0103m\u00e2neau mai pu\u021bin de o mie de lei pentru tot. Dar niciodat\u0103 n-am l\u0103sat-o fl\u0103m\u00e2nd\u0103. Niciodat\u0103 n-am l\u0103sat-o s\u0103 se simt\u0103 mai pu\u021bin.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sala era complet t\u0103cut\u0103.<\/p>\n
Tata s-a uitat spre p\u0103rin\u021bii lui Andrei.<\/p>\n
\u201eMi s-a spus azi c\u0103 prezen\u021ba mea ar putea deranja. C\u0103 meseria mea nu d\u0103 bine. Dar vreau s\u0103 v\u0103 spun ceva.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u0218i-a ridicat b\u0103rbia.<\/p>\n
\u201eNu munca ne face mici. Ci felul \u00een care \u00eei judec\u0103m pe al\u021bii.\u201d<\/p>\n
Un murmur s-a auzit printre invita\u021bi.<\/p>\n
\u201eFiica mea nu se m\u0103rit\u0103 pentru bani. Se m\u0103rit\u0103 pentru c\u0103 a fost crescut\u0103 s\u0103 recunoasc\u0103 un om bun. \u0218i Andrei este un om bun.\u201d<\/p>\n
Andrei avea ochii \u00een lacrimi.<\/p>\n
\u201eEu plec lini\u0219tit de aici. Pentru c\u0103 \u0219tiu c\u0103 ea intr\u0103 \u00eentr-o via\u021b\u0103 nou\u0103 cu fruntea sus. \u0218i pentru c\u0103, indiferent ce cred unii, eu sunt m\u00e2ndru de cine sunt.\u201d<\/p>\n
A ridicat paharul.<\/p>\n
\u201eS\u0103 v\u0103 fie casa plin\u0103 de respect. Nu de aparen\u021be.\u201d<\/p>\n
A l\u0103sat microfonul jos.<\/p>\n
Pentru o secund\u0103, nimeni n-a reac\u021bionat.<\/p>\n
Apoi cineva a \u00eenceput s\u0103 aplaude. Un om. Apoi altul. Apoi toat\u0103 sala.<\/p>\n
Mama lui Andrei st\u0103tea nemi\u0219cat\u0103. Tat\u0103l lui se uita \u00een jos.<\/p>\n
Andrei a venit l\u00e2ng\u0103 tata, l-a luat de bra\u021b \u0219i a spus tare:
\n\u201eTat\u0103l so\u021biei mele r\u0103m\u00e2ne. Cine are o problem\u0103 cu asta, poate pleca.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nimeni n-a plecat.<\/p>\n
Nunta a continuat. Mai simplu. Mai adev\u0103rat.<\/p>\n
Mai t\u00e2rziu, c\u00e2nd muzica era mai \u00eencet, tata a stat la mas\u0103 cu noi, z\u00e2mbind. Avea ochii obosi\u021bi, dar lini\u0219ti\u021bi.<\/p>\n
\u00cen seara aceea am \u00een\u021beles ceva clar.<\/p>\n
Nu to\u021bi oamenii care poart\u0103 costume sunt demni de respect.
\n\u0218i nu to\u021bi cei care poart\u0103 salopete sunt mici.<\/p>\n
Unii sunt coloana care \u021bine totul \u00een picioare.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
