U\u0219a s-a \u00eenchis \u00eencet \u00een urma lor.<\/p>\n
\u00cen\u0103untru mirosea a lemn vechi \u0219i a ceai de tei. Casa era simpl\u0103, curat\u0103, cu mobil\u0103 de demult, bine \u00eentre\u021binut\u0103. Pe pere\u021bi erau fotografii \u00eenr\u0103mate: poze alb-negru cu un t\u00e2n\u0103r \u00een uniform\u0103 militar\u0103, diplome \u00eeng\u0103lbenite, o medalie prins\u0103 \u00eentr-o cutie de catifea.<\/p>\n
Unul dintre golani a aruncat o privire dispre\u021buitoare.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ia uite-l, erou de muzeu, a morm\u0103it el.<\/p>\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2nul nu a r\u0103spuns. A pus ibricul pe sob\u0103 \u0219i a scos trei c\u0103ni groase din dulap.<\/p>\n
M\u00e2inile nu-i tremurau.<\/p>\n
Asta i-a nelini\u0219tit pentru o clip\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Hai, mo\u0219ule, mi\u0219c\u0103-te mai repede cu actele alea, a zis cel mai \u00eenalt, uit\u00e2ndu-se prin camer\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 R\u0103bdare, b\u0103iete, a r\u0103spuns calm b\u0103tr\u00e2nul. Toate la timpul lor.<\/p>\n
Cel care \u00eel apucase de guler a \u00eenceput s\u0103 umble prin sertare.<\/p>\n
Atunci a observat ceva.<\/p>\n
Pe un raft, perfect aliniate, st\u0103teau mai multe fotografii recente. \u00cen ele, b\u0103tr\u00e2nul ap\u0103rea al\u0103turi de al\u021bi b\u0103rba\u021bi \u00een uniform\u0103. Nu era o uniform\u0103 obi\u0219nuit\u0103. Era una de interven\u021bie.<\/p>\n
Sub una dintre poze scria: \u201eBrigada Antitero \u2013 1998\u201d.<\/p>\n
Z\u00e2mbetul i s-a \u0219ters \u00eencet de pe fa\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 B\u0103, \u0103sta… a \u00eenceput el.<\/p>\n
Dar n-a apucat s\u0103 termine.<\/p>\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2nul s-a \u00eentors din buc\u0103t\u0103rie f\u0103r\u0103 grab\u0103. \u00cen m\u00e2na dreapt\u0103 \u021binea un telefon mobil vechi, dar func\u021bional.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Am ap\u0103sat deja butonul de apel rapid, a spus el lini\u0219tit. Fiul meu nu mai e la Cluj.<\/p>\n
Golanii au \u00eencremenit.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cum adic\u0103?<\/p>\n
\u2014 E \u0219ef la poli\u021bia din jude\u021b. Vine repede c\u00e2nd \u00eel sun.<\/p>\n
\u00cen clipa aceea, din curte s-a auzit l\u0103tratul puternic al unui c\u00e2ine. Un ciob\u0103nesc mare, negru, a \u00eenceput s\u0103 zguduie poarta.<\/p>\n
Unul dintre golani a f\u0103cut un pas \u00eenapoi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ne-ai min\u021bit! Ai zis c\u0103 n-ai pe nimeni!<\/p>\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2nul a ridicat din umeri.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Voi a\u021bi zis asta. Eu n-am confirmat.<\/p>\n
Pe chipul lui nu era fric\u0103.<\/p>\n
Era o lini\u0219te rece.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i \u00eenc\u0103 ceva, a ad\u0103ugat el. Am 72 de ani. Am fost 30 de ani \u00een trupele speciale. N-am cedat c\u00e2nd al\u021bii tr\u0103geau \u00een mine. Crede\u021bi c\u0103 m\u0103 speria\u021bi voi?<\/p>\n
Cel mai impulsiv dintre ei a f\u0103cut un pas \u00eenainte, dar s-a oprit.<\/p>\n
\u00cen dep\u0103rtare s-au auzit sirene.<\/p>\n
Nu foarte departe.<\/p>\n
Nu foarte \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
Panica le-a luat locul \u00eencrederii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Hai s\u0103 plec\u0103m! a \u0219optit unul.<\/p>\n
Au \u00eencercat s\u0103 fug\u0103 spre u\u0219\u0103, dar c\u00e2inele deja intrase \u00een curte \u0219i m\u00e2r\u00e2ia amenin\u021b\u0103tor l\u00e2ng\u0103 poart\u0103.<\/p>\n
Sirenele s-au apropiat rapid.<\/p>\n
Lumini albastre au \u00eenceput s\u0103 se reflecte \u00een geamuri.<\/p>\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2nul a deschis larg u\u0219a de la intrare.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Merge\u021bi, b\u0103ie\u021bi. Afar\u0103 v\u0103 a\u0219teapt\u0103 cine trebuie.<\/p>\n
\u00cen mai pu\u021bin de un minut, curtea s-a umplut de poli\u021bi\u0219ti.<\/p>\n
Cei trei au fost \u00eenc\u0103tu\u0219a\u021bi f\u0103r\u0103 prea mult\u0103 rezisten\u021b\u0103. De data asta, nu mai aveau curaj.<\/p>\n
Un t\u00e2n\u0103r ofi\u021ber a intrat \u00een cas\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Tat\u0103, e\u0219ti bine?<\/p>\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2nul a z\u00e2mbit pentru prima oar\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Sunt bine, Andrei. \u021ai-am zis c\u0103 mai pot.<\/p>\n
Ofi\u021berul l-a privit cu respect.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mereu ai putut.<\/p>\n
Golanii au fost urca\u021bi \u00een dub\u0103.<\/p>\n
De data asta, nu pentru c\u00e2teva luni.<\/p>\n
Dosarul lor era deja gros. Iar tentativa de \u0219antaj \u0219i amenin\u021bare le-a pus capac.<\/p>\n
Casa a r\u0103mas lini\u0219tit\u0103.<\/p>\n
B\u0103tr\u00e2nul \u0219i-a turnat \u00een sf\u00e2r\u0219it ceaiul \u00een can\u0103 \u0219i a sorbit \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
\u00cen curte, c\u00e2inele s-a a\u0219ezat la picioarele lui.<\/p>\n
Nu era singur.<\/p>\n
Nu fusese niciodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u0218i \u00een cartier s-a dus vorba repede: la col\u021bul str\u0103zii nu st\u0103tea o prad\u0103 u\u0219oar\u0103.<\/p>\n
St\u0103tea un om care \u00ee\u0219i ap\u0103ra munca de-o via\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
Iar uneori, cei care par cei mai vulnerabili sunt, de fapt, cei mai puternici.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
