Toate privirile s-au \u00eentors instinctiv spre intrare.<\/p>\n
Doi agen\u021bi de paz\u0103 \u00eencercau s\u0103 opreasc\u0103 o siluet\u0103 mic\u0103, \u00eembr\u0103cat\u0103 \u00eentr-o hain\u0103 jerpelit\u0103, prea sub\u021bire pentru frigul de munte. Femeia avea p\u0103rul \u00eenc\u00e2lcit, fa\u021ba murdar\u0103 \u0219i pantofi rup\u021bi. P\u0103rea o cer\u0219etoare r\u0103t\u0103cit\u0103, ajuns\u0103 din gre\u0219eal\u0103 \u00eentr-un loc unde nu avea ce c\u0103uta.<\/p>\n
Un murmur de dezgust a str\u0103b\u0103tut invita\u021bii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Scoate\u021bi-o afar\u0103! \u2014 a \u0219uierat Sonia, ridic\u00e2ndu-se nervoas\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dar Alexandru \u00eencremenise.<\/p>\n
Inima i-a \u00eenceput s\u0103 bat\u0103 nebune\u0219te. Pentru c\u0103, sub murd\u0103rie \u0219i hainele ponosite, el recunoscuse ochii aceia.<\/p>\n
Ochii Anei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 L\u0103sa\u021bi-o! \u2014 a spus el tare, cu o voce care a t\u0103iat aerul ca un cu\u021bit.<\/p>\n
Preotul s-a oprit. Laura s-a \u00eentors spre el, alb\u0103 la fa\u021b\u0103.
\n\u2014 Alexandru, e o nebun\u0103! Ne face de r\u00e2s!<\/p>\n
Femeia s-a apropiat \u00eencet de altar. Fiecare pas p\u0103rea o lupt\u0103. C\u00e2nd a ajuns suficient de aproape, \u0219i-a ridicat privirea spre Alexandru.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Bun\u0103, Alex \u2014 a spus ea \u00eencet. Vocea \u00eei tremura, dar era clar\u0103. \u2014 Adev\u0103rul a venit prea t\u00e2rziu\u2026 dar a venit.<\/p>\n
Un val de panic\u0103 a trecut prin mul\u021bime.<\/p>\n
Ana a scos din buzunarul hainei o h\u00e2rtie mototolit\u0103. Apoi \u00eenc\u0103 una. \u0218i \u00eenc\u0103 una. Le-a \u00eentins spre Alexandru.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Rezultatele medicale. Actele de la spital. \u0218i\u2026 o h\u00e2rtie cu datorie, semnat\u0103 de mama Laurei.<\/p>\n
Sonia a f\u0103cut un pas \u00eenapoi, ca lovit\u0103.
\n\u2014 Minte! E o escroac\u0103!<\/p>\n
Alexandru a luat h\u00e2rtiile cu m\u00e2inile tremur\u00e2nde. Le-a citit. Ochii i s-au umplut de lacrimi.<\/p>\n
Pozele de acum zece ani fuseser\u0103 \u00eenscenate. B\u0103rbatul din hotel era medicul ei. Ana fusese \u00eens\u0103rcinat\u0103. Complica\u021bii. Pierduse copilul. Iar Sonia pl\u0103tise ca ea s\u0103 dispar\u0103, amenin\u021b\u00e2nd-o cu distrugerea familiei ei de la \u021bar\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Am ajuns pe str\u0103zi \u2014 a continuat Ana, cu glas stins. \u2014 Am muncit cu ziua. Am dormit prin g\u0103ri. Dar n-am vrut bani. Am vrut doar s\u0103 \u0219tii adev\u0103rul \u00eenainte s\u0103 fie prea t\u00e2rziu.<\/p>\n
Lini\u0219tea era ap\u0103s\u0103toare.<\/p>\n
Laura tremura.
\n\u2014 Alex, nu o asculta! E o poveste inventat\u0103!<\/p>\n
Alexandru s-a \u00eentors spre ea. Pentru prima dat\u0103, privirea lui era limpede.
\n\u2014 Tu \u0219tiai.<\/p>\n
Laura a t\u0103cut.<\/p>\n
Alexandru \u0219i-a scos verigheta \u0219i a pus-o pe masa altarului.
\n\u2014 Nu pot construi nimic pe o minciun\u0103.<\/p>\n
Apoi s-a apropiat de Ana. \u0218i-a scos sacoul scump \u0219i i l-a pus pe umeri, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103-i pese de priviri.
\n\u2014 Iart\u0103-m\u0103 c\u0103 nu te-am c\u0103utat. Iart\u0103-m\u0103 c\u0103 am crezut ce a fost mai r\u0103u.<\/p>\n
Ana a izbucnit \u00een pl\u00e2ns.<\/p>\n
Sonia a le\u0219inat. Invita\u021bii \u0219u\u0219oteau. Unii filmau. Al\u021bii plecau.<\/p>\n
Alexandru a luat-o pe Ana de m\u00e2n\u0103 \u0219i a cobor\u00e2t de la altar, l\u0103s\u00e2nd \u00een urm\u0103 o nunt\u0103 de milioane de lei \u0219i o lume fals\u0103.<\/p>\n
Un an mai t\u00e2rziu, \u00eentr-o cas\u0103 simpl\u0103 de l\u00e2ng\u0103 Sibiu, Ana lucra \u00eentr-un mic atelier, iar Alexandru nu mai era miliardarul de pe coperte, ci un b\u0103rbat \u00eemp\u0103cat.<\/p>\n
Pentru c\u0103 uneori, adev\u0103rata bog\u0103\u021bie vine atunci c\u00e2nd ai curajul s\u0103 alegi adev\u0103rul, chiar \u00een fa\u021ba tuturor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
