\u2026a privit \u00een t\u0103cere c\u00e2teva secunde, apoi s-a \u00eentors spre mine.<\/p>\n
Nu era mil\u0103 \u00een ochii lui.<\/p>\n
Era\u2026 surpriz\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u0218i ceva ce nu \u0219tiam s\u0103 definesc.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Aici stai? a \u00eentrebat calm.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Da. Nu e vreo vil\u0103 \u00een Pipera, dar e acas\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am deschis u\u0219a \u00eenainte s\u0103 mai spun\u0103 ceva.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mul\u021bumesc pentru drum.<\/p>\n
Am cobor\u00e2t rapid, cu rucsacul pe um\u0103r. Sim\u021beam privirea lui \u00een spate. M-am uitat o secund\u0103 \u00eenapoi. Geamul era \u00eenc\u0103 jos.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Elena.<\/p>\n
M-am oprit.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Da?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ai uitat ceva.<\/p>\n
Inima mi-a s\u0103rit.<\/p>\n
M-am apropiat. El \u021binea \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103 legitima\u021bia mea de student.<\/p>\n
\u2014 A c\u0103zut c\u00e2nd ai adormit.<\/p>\n
Mi-a \u00eentins-o. Degetele noastre s-au atins o frac\u021biune de secund\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mul\u021bumesc.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ai un nume frumos.<\/p>\n
\u2014 E singurul lucru gratuit din via\u021ba mea, am glumit.<\/p>\n
A z\u00e2mbit altfel de data asta. Mai cald.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Noapte bun\u0103, Elena.<\/p>\n
Am urcat \u00een garsoniera mea mic\u0103, cu pere\u021bii sub\u021biri \u0219i mobila veche. M-am sprijinit de u\u0219\u0103 \u0219i am \u00eenceput s\u0103 r\u00e2d.<\/p>\n
Ce naiba fusese asta?<\/p>\n
A doua zi diminea\u021b\u0103, la ora opt, c\u00e2nd alergam spre facultate cu un covrig \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103, o ma\u0219in\u0103 neagr\u0103 era oprit\u0103 l\u00e2ng\u0103 trotuar.<\/p>\n
Am ignorat-o.<\/p>\n
Geamul s-a l\u0103sat jos.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De data asta e ma\u0219ina potrivit\u0103.<\/p>\n
Era el.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce cau\u021bi aici?<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u021ai-am spus. Bun-sim\u021b.<\/p>\n
Mi-a \u00eentins o cafea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 F\u0103r\u0103 zah\u0103r. Pari genul.<\/p>\n
Am luat-o f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 vreau s\u0103 recunosc c\u00e2t de bine \u00eemi prindea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu sunt un proiect caritabil, s\u0103 \u0219tii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nici nu caut unul, a r\u0103spuns simplu.<\/p>\n
\u00cen urm\u0103toarele s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2ni, a ap\u0103rut din c\u00e2nd \u00een c\u00e2nd. Nu zilnic. Nu insistent.<\/p>\n
Uneori m\u0103 ducea la munc\u0103. Alteori doar st\u0103team zece minute \u0219i vorbeam.<\/p>\n
Am aflat c\u0103 de\u021binea mai multe companii. C\u0103 ap\u0103ruse \u00een reviste economice. C\u0103 avea mai mul\u021bi bani dec\u00e2t a\u0219 fi putut visa.<\/p>\n
Dar nu vorbea despre asta cu arogan\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
M\u0103 \u00eentreba despre examene. Despre planurile mele. Despre cum e s\u0103 munce\u0219ti pentru fiecare leu.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-o sear\u0103, dup\u0103 ce am terminat ultima sesiune din an, m-a a\u0219teptat \u00een fa\u021ba facult\u0103\u021bii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ai trecut?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cu 9,50 la marketing, am spus m\u00e2ndr\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci trebuie s\u0103 s\u0103rb\u0103torim.<\/p>\n
M-a dus \u00eentr-un restaurant unde o cin\u0103 costa c\u00e2t jum\u0103tate din chiria mea.<\/p>\n
M-am sim\u021bit stingher\u0103. El a observat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Elena, nu \u00eencerc s\u0103 te impresionez cu banii mei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci cu ce?<\/p>\n
S-a uitat direct la mine.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cu faptul c\u0103 v\u0103d c\u00e2t valorezi.<\/p>\n
Cuvintele au r\u0103mas \u00eentre noi.<\/p>\n
Lunile au trecut.<\/p>\n
Nu m-a schimbat. Nu m-a \u201esalvat\u201d. Nu mi-a pl\u0103tit chiria. Nu mi-a cump\u0103rat lucruri scumpe.<\/p>\n
M-a respectat.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-o duminic\u0103, m-a dus \u00eenapoi \u00een fa\u021ba bibliotecii unde adormisem \u00een ma\u0219ina gre\u0219it\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u021ai-ai verificat num\u0103rul azi? a \u00eentrebat z\u00e2mbind.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De dou\u0103 ori.<\/p>\n
A cobor\u00e2t din ma\u0219in\u0103. A ocolit \u0219i s-a oprit \u00een fa\u021ba mea.<\/p>\n
A scos o cutie mic\u0103.<\/p>\n
Inima mi-a \u00eenghe\u021bat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ai urcat \u00een ma\u0219ina gre\u0219it\u0103 \u00een seara aia, a spus \u00eencet. Dar eu cred c\u0103 am avut cel mai mare noroc din via\u021ba mea.<\/p>\n
A deschis cutia.<\/p>\n
Un inel simplu, elegant.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu vreau s\u0103 te salvez. Vreau s\u0103 merg al\u0103turi de tine. Indiferent c\u00e2\u021bi lei ai \u00een cont. Vrei?<\/p>\n
Lumea mea, construit\u0103 din ture, examene \u0219i cafea ieftin\u0103, s-a oprit o secund\u0103.<\/p>\n
M-am g\u00e2ndit la fata epuizat\u0103 care urcase \u00eentr-o ma\u0219in\u0103 f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 verifice num\u0103rul.<\/p>\n
La blocul din Rahova.<\/p>\n
La nop\u021bile nedormite.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Da, am spus.<\/p>\n
Nu pentru c\u0103 era bogat.<\/p>\n
Ci pentru c\u0103, pentru prima dat\u0103, cineva m\u0103 vedea cu adev\u0103rat.<\/p>\n
\u0218i uneori, o gre\u0219eal\u0103 f\u0103cut\u0103 din oboseal\u0103 nu \u00ee\u021bi distruge via\u021ba.<\/p>\n
O schimb\u0103 pentru totdeauna.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
