Am r\u0103mas cu telefonul lipit de ureche c\u00e2teva secunde bune, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 pot scoate un sunet.<\/p>\n
Inima \u00eemi b\u0103tea at\u00e2t de tare \u00eenc\u00e2t \u00eemi auzeam pulsul \u00een t\u00e2mple.<\/p>\n
\u201eCe s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat?\u201d, am reu\u0219it s\u0103 \u00eentreb.<\/p>\n
\u201eNu pot s\u0103-\u021bi explic la telefon. Doar\u2026 vino la restaurant. La Casa Domneasc\u0103. Te rog.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u0218i a \u00eenchis.<\/p>\n
M-am uitat la mine \u00een oglind\u0103. Blugi simpli, tricou larg, p\u0103rul prins neglijent. Nu ar\u0103tam ca cineva care merge la o nunt\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dar ceva \u00een vocea ei\u2026 nu era r\u0103utate. Nu era ironie. Era panic\u0103.<\/p>\n
Mi-am luat o rochie bleumarin, simpl\u0103, pe care o cump\u0103rasem recent, din banii mei, dup\u0103 ce prinsesem \u00een sf\u00e2r\u0219it curaj s\u0103 intru \u00eentr-un magazin f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 caut automat cea mai mare m\u0103rime. M-am \u00eenc\u0103l\u021bat cu ni\u0219te sandale cu toc mic \u0219i am plecat.<\/p>\n
Drumul p\u00e2n\u0103 la restaurant mi s-a p\u0103rut infinit.<\/p>\n
\u00cen fa\u021b\u0103 era agita\u021bie. Ma\u0219ini, rude, rochii colorate, b\u0103rba\u021bi \u00een costume care fumau nervo\u0219i.<\/p>\n
Am intrat.<\/p>\n
Lumea \u0219u\u0219otea.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit priviri pe mine. Unele curioase. Altele surprinse.<\/p>\n
Mama lui Andrei a venit direct spre mine. Avea rimelul \u00eentins \u0219i buchetul de flori str\u00e2ns \u00een m\u00e2ini ca \u0219i cum ar fi fost un colac de salvare.<\/p>\n
\u201eA fugit\u201d, a spus.<\/p>\n
Am clipit.<\/p>\n
\u201eCine a fugit?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201eCristina.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cuv\u00e2ntul a c\u0103zut greu \u00eentre noi.<\/p>\n
\u201eCu o or\u0103 \u00eenainte de cununie. A l\u0103sat un bilet. A zis c\u0103 nu poate face asta. C\u0103 nu e sigur\u0103. C\u0103 s-a gr\u0103bit.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit un val ciudat de ceva\u2026 nu bucurie. Nu satisfac\u021bie. Mai degrab\u0103 lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n
\u201e\u0218i eu ce leg\u0103tur\u0103 am?\u201d, am \u00eentrebat.<\/p>\n
Femeia m-a privit lung.<\/p>\n
\u201ePentru c\u0103 el\u2026 nu e bine.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am intrat \u00een sala mare. Muzica se oprise. L\u0103utarii st\u0103teau pe scaune, confuzi. Pe pere\u021bi scria \u201eCas\u0103 de piatr\u0103, Andrei \u0219i Cristina\u201d, dar literele p\u0103reau acum ironice.<\/p>\n
Andrei st\u0103tea pe un scaun, cu sacoul desf\u0103cut, cravata sl\u0103bit\u0103, privirea pierdut\u0103. Ar\u0103ta mic. Fragil.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd m-a v\u0103zut, s-a ridicat brusc.<\/p>\n
\u201eTu ce cau\u021bi aici?\u201d<\/p>\n
Vocea lui nu mai avea arogan\u021ba de alt\u0103dat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eMama ta m-a chemat.\u201d<\/p>\n
A r\u00e2s scurt, amar.<\/p>\n
\u201eNormal.\u201d<\/p>\n
S-a apropiat de mine.<\/p>\n
\u201e\u0218tii ce a scris? C\u0103 nu sunt b\u0103rbatul pe care \u00eel credea. C\u0103 sunt obsedat de aparen\u021be. C\u0103 mereu vreau ceva mai bun.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cuvintele lui pluteau \u00een aer, grele.<\/p>\n
\u201e\u0218i nu e adev\u0103rat?\u201d, am \u00eentrebat calm.<\/p>\n
M-a privit. Pentru prima dat\u0103, f\u0103r\u0103 superioritate.<\/p>\n
\u201eAm crezut c\u0103 dac\u0103 sunt cu cineva perfect\u2026 lumea o s\u0103 m\u0103 vad\u0103 altfel.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum \u00een mine se a\u0219az\u0103 o pies\u0103 lips\u0103 dintr-un puzzle vechi.<\/p>\n
Nu era vorba despre mine.<\/p>\n
Niciodat\u0103 nu fusese.<\/p>\n
\u201eLarisa\u2026\u201d, a \u00eenceput el, dar l-am oprit.<\/p>\n
\u201eNu.\u201d<\/p>\n
Un singur cuv\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n
Ferm.<\/p>\n
\u201eNu sunt aici pentru tine. \u0218i nu sunt aici ca s\u0103 fiu varianta de rezerv\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n
A \u00eenghi\u021bit \u00een sec.<\/p>\n
\u00cen jurul nostru, rudele \u00eencercau s\u0103 salveze ce se mai putea salva. Cineva a propus s\u0103 \u00eenceap\u0103 totu\u0219i petrecerea. \u201eDoar m\u00e2ncarea e pl\u0103tit\u0103, peste 30.000 de lei, ce facem, o arunc\u0103m?\u201d<\/p>\n
Via\u021ba merge \u00eenainte, indiferent de drame.<\/p>\n
M-am uitat la el \u00eenc\u0103 o dat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eM-ai l\u0103sat pentru c\u0103 nu eram \u2018potrivit\u0103\u2019 pentru tine. Azi ai r\u0103mas singur pentru c\u0103 ai vrut o vitrin\u0103, nu un om.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nu am ridicat vocea.<\/p>\n
Nu am pl\u00e2ns.<\/p>\n
Nu am tremurat.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit doar o lini\u0219te profund\u0103.<\/p>\n
M-am \u00eentors \u0219i am ie\u0219it din sal\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen spate, muzica a \u00eenceput timid. O s\u00e2rb\u0103, parc\u0103 din obi\u0219nuin\u021b\u0103. Oamenii deja se a\u0219ezau la mese. Via\u021ba \u00ee\u0219i cerea drepturile.<\/p>\n
Am ie\u0219it \u00een aerul rece al serii \u0219i am tras ad\u00e2nc \u00een piept.<\/p>\n
Nu mai eram \u201efata plinu\u021b\u0103\u201d.<\/p>\n
Nu mai eram \u201ecea p\u0103r\u0103sit\u0103\u201d.<\/p>\n
Eram eu.<\/p>\n
Cu cicatrici. Cu for\u021b\u0103. Cu demnitate.<\/p>\n
Telefonul a vibrat.<\/p>\n
Un mesaj de la un num\u0103r necunoscut.<\/p>\n
\u201e\u00cemi pare r\u0103u pentru tot. Ai fost singura care m-a iubit cu adev\u0103rat.\u201d \u2013 Andrei.<\/p>\n
Am z\u00e2mbit u\u0219or.<\/p>\n
\u0218i am \u0219ters mesajul.<\/p>\n
Pentru c\u0103, \u00een sf\u00e2r\u0219it, \u00eenv\u0103\u021basem cel mai important lucru:<\/p>\n
Nu trebuie s\u0103 sl\u0103be\u0219ti ca s\u0103 valorezi.<\/p>\n
Nu trebuie s\u0103 te mic\u0219orezi ca s\u0103 \u00eencap\u0103 altcineva l\u00e2ng\u0103 tine.<\/p>\n
\u0218i uneori, cea mai mare victorie nu e s\u0103 fii aleas\u0103.<\/p>\n
Ci s\u0103 pleci cu capul sus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
