Tata s-a a\u0219ezat \u00eencet pe scaunul din hol, de parc\u0103 picioarele nu-l mai \u021bineau. Mama s-a sprijinit de tocul u\u0219ii, cu o m\u00e2n\u0103 la gur\u0103. Andrei st\u0103tea l\u00e2ng\u0103 mine, drept, cu rucsacul pe um\u0103r, atent la fiecare mi\u0219care.<\/p>\n
\u201eSpune\u201d, a murmurat tata, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 m\u0103 priveasc\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am inspirat ad\u00e2nc. Aerul din cas\u0103 mirosea a varz\u0103 c\u0103lit\u0103 \u0219i a cafea veche. Nimic nu se schimbase. Doar noi.<\/p>\n
\u201eTat\u0103l lui Andrei a murit \u00eenainte s\u0103 \u0219tiu c\u0103 sunt \u00eens\u0103rcinat\u0103\u201d, am \u00eenceput. \u201e\u00centr-un accident de munc\u0103. Era sudor pe \u0219antier.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mama a clipit des. \u201e\u0218i ce leg\u0103tur\u0103 are asta cu\u2026 amenin\u021barea ta?\u201d<\/p>\n
Am \u00eenghi\u021bit \u00een sec.<\/p>\n
\u201ePentru c\u0103 tat\u0103l lui Andrei era fiul omului pentru care lucra tata.\u201d<\/p>\n
T\u0103cere.<\/p>\n
\u201eFiul patronului t\u0103u\u201d, am continuat. \u201eAl omului care te-a ajutat s\u0103-\u021bi pl\u0103te\u0219ti creditul. Care ne-a \u00eemprumutat bani c\u00e2nd n-aveam nici de lemne.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tata s-a uitat brusc la mine. Fa\u021ba i s-a albit.<\/p>\n
\u201eNu\u201d, a \u0219optit.<\/p>\n
\u201eBa da. \u0218i c\u00e2nd a murit, familia lui a \u00eencercat s\u0103 mu\u0219amalizeze totul. Firma, accidentul, vina. Dac\u0103 avortam, eram obligat\u0103 s\u0103 semnez ni\u0219te h\u00e2rtii. H\u00e2rtii prin care renun\u021bam la orice drept. La adev\u0103r.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mama a \u00eenceput s\u0103 tremure.<\/p>\n
\u201eDac\u0103 f\u0103ceam asta\u201d, am spus \u00eencet, \u201efirma lui sc\u0103pa basma curat\u0103. Tata ar fi r\u0103mas f\u0103r\u0103 serviciu oricum. \u0218i poate mai r\u0103u.\u201d<\/p>\n
Andrei s-a uitat la bunicul lui. \u201eBunicule, tata a fost un om bun?\u201d<\/p>\n
Tata a izbucnit \u00een pl\u00e2ns. Un pl\u00e2ns greu, din piept, pe care nu-l mai v\u0103zusem niciodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eA fost\u201d, a spus printre suspine. \u201e\u0218i eu am fost un la\u0219.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mama s-a apropiat de Andrei, cu pa\u0219i mici, de parc\u0103 se temea c\u0103 va disp\u0103rea. I-a atins m\u00e2na.<\/p>\n
\u201eIart\u0103-ne\u201d, a \u0219optit. \u201ePe am\u00e2ndoi.\u201d<\/p>\n
Andrei a z\u00e2mbit timid. \u201eVreau doar s\u0103 v\u0103 cunosc.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am stat acolo ore \u00eentregi. Am vorbit. Am pl\u00e2ns. Am m\u00e2ncat \u00eempreun\u0103, ca pe vremuri. Tata i-a ar\u0103tat lui Andrei atelierul din curte. Mama i-a scos poze vechi, \u00eeng\u0103lbenite.<\/p>\n
Seara, c\u00e2nd am ie\u0219it pe prisp\u0103, tata m-a oprit.<\/p>\n
\u201eMaria\u2026 am pus bani deoparte. Pentru Andrei. Nu ca s\u0103 repar trecutul. Ci ca s\u0103 nu-l mai stric\u0103m.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nu era o sum\u0103 mare. C\u00e2teva mii de lei. Dar conta.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd am plecat a doua zi, mama ne-a \u00eembr\u0103\u021bi\u0219at str\u00e2ns. Tata l-a b\u0103tut pe Andrei pe um\u0103r.<\/p>\n
\u201eS\u0103 mai veni\u021bi\u201d, a spus.<\/p>\n
\u00cen ma\u0219in\u0103, Andrei s-a uitat pe geam, apoi la mine.<\/p>\n
\u201eMam\u0103\u2026 ai f\u0103cut bine c\u0103 nu ai renun\u021bat.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am z\u00e2mbit, cu ochii \u00een lacrimi.<\/p>\n
\u201e\u0218tiu.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u0218i pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 zece ani, trecutul nu mai durea. Era, \u00een sf\u00e2r\u0219it, pus la locul lui.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
