Vorbele lui m-au lovit mai tare dec\u00e2t p\u0103m\u00e2ntul aruncat peste sicriu.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas nemi\u0219cat\u0103, cu privirea pierdut\u0103 \u00een crucea proasp\u0103t\u0103, \u00een timp ce \u00een jur oamenii murmurau rug\u0103ciuni \u0219i se fereau de v\u00e2ntul rece. Ce voia s\u0103 spun\u0103? Ce a f\u0103cut pentru mine? Mintea mea a \u00eenceput s\u0103 caute explica\u021bii, dar n-avea de unde s\u0103 le scoat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 slujb\u0103, l-am v\u0103zut pe b\u0103tr\u00e2n a\u0219ezat pe o banc\u0103, cu sticla ascuns\u0103 \u00eentr-o pung\u0103. M-am apropiat \u00eencet. Nu mai aveam nimic de pierdut.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce ai vrut s\u0103 spui? l-am \u00eentrebat. Spune-mi acum.<\/p>\n
A ridicat ochii umezi spre mine \u0219i a oftat ad\u00e2nc, ca \u0219i cum a\u0219teptase \u00eentrebarea asta ani \u00eentregi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Traian a \u0219tiut, a zis el. De mult. C\u0103 e bolnav.<\/p>\n
Mi s-a t\u0103iat respira\u021bia.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce fel de bolnav?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Inima. Medicii i-au spus c\u0103 n-o s\u0103 mai apuce b\u0103tr\u00e2ne\u021bea. Opera\u021bii, tratamente\u2026 costau o avere. Zeci de mii de lei.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum \u00eemi tremur\u0103 genunchii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i banii?<\/p>\n
\u2014 I-a str\u00e2ns pentru tine. Nu voia s\u0103 te lase cu rate, cu datorii, cu nimic. Casa, economiile, copiii \u2014 toate s\u0103 r\u0103m\u00e2n\u0103 curate.<\/p>\n
Mi-au venit \u00een minte conturile goale. Chitan\u021bele. Hotelul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i hotelul? am \u0219optit.<\/p>\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2nul a z\u00e2mbit amar.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Acolo mergea dup\u0103 tratamente. \u00cen Cluj. Nu voia s\u0103 \u0219tie nimeni. Nici tu. Zicea c\u0103 dac\u0103 afli, o s\u0103-l vezi ca pe un bolnav, nu ca pe b\u0103rbatul t\u0103u.<\/p>\n
M-am a\u0219ezat l\u00e2ng\u0103 el, sim\u021bind cum lumea se r\u0103stoarn\u0103 \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
Toate certurile. Toate privirile reci. T\u0103cerea lui.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De ce n-a spus adev\u0103rul? De ce m-a l\u0103sat s\u0103 cred\u2026?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 te iubea, a spus simplu. \u0218i pentru c\u0103 era m\u00e2ndru. A preferat s\u0103 piard\u0103 c\u0103snicia dec\u00e2t s\u0103 te lege de suferin\u021ba lui.<\/p>\n
Am plecat de la cimitir cu pa\u0219ii grei. \u00cen seara aceea, am scos toate actele vechi din dulap. Printre ele, am g\u0103sit o map\u0103 sub\u021bire, ascuns\u0103 \u00een spate. Analize medicale. Facturi. \u0218i o scrisoare.<\/p>\n
Era pentru mine.<\/p>\n
Scria c\u0103 \u0219tia c\u0103 o s\u0103-l ur\u0103sc. C\u0103 o s\u0103 cred ce e mai r\u0103u. Dar c\u0103, \u00eentr-o zi, adev\u0103rul o s\u0103 ias\u0103 la lumin\u0103. \u0218i atunci, spera s\u0103-l iert.<\/p>\n
Am pl\u00e2ns ca niciodat\u0103. Nu de furie. De dor.<\/p>\n
La c\u00e2teva luni dup\u0103 aceea, am v\u00e2ndut ma\u0219ina lui veche \u0219i am donat banii unei sec\u021bii de cardiologie. Pe pl\u0103cu\u021ba de pe perete scria un nume rom\u00e2nesc simplu. Al lui.<\/p>\n
Ast\u0103zi, c\u00e2nd cineva \u00eemi spune c\u0103 dragostea adev\u0103rat\u0103 nu \u021bine o via\u021b\u0103, z\u00e2mbesc trist.<\/p>\n
Uneori, \u021bine mai mult dec\u00e2t adev\u0103rul.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
