M-am apropiat \u00eencet de ghiveci.<\/p>\n
Nu era mare lucru \u2014 un ghiveci vechi, cr\u0103pat pe margini, cu p\u0103m\u00e2nt uscat \u0219i tare ca piatra. Dar felul \u00een care st\u0103tea \u00eenclinat \u00eemi d\u0103dea o senza\u021bie ciudat\u0103.<\/p>\n

M-am uitat \u00een jurul cur\u021bii.<\/p>\n
Gardul era mic \u0219i ruginit. Poarta era \u00eencuiat\u0103. Nimeni nu ar fi putut intra f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 fac\u0103 zgomot.<\/p>\n
\u201eProbabil l-am atins eu ieri\u201d, mi-am spus.<\/p>\n
Dar \u00een mintea mea ceva nu se lega.<\/p>\n
Am apucat ghiveciul cu ambele m\u00e2ini ca s\u0103-l \u00eendrept.<\/p>\n
Era mai greu dec\u00e2t m\u0103 a\u0219teptam.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd l-am mi\u0219cat pu\u021bin, partea cr\u0103pat\u0103 s-a desprins complet.<\/p>\n
Ghiveciul a c\u0103zut pe o parte \u0219i s-a spart \u00een dou\u0103.<\/p>\n
P\u0103m\u00e2ntul uscat s-a rev\u0103rsat pe jos, ca o pulbere maronie.<\/p>\n
Am oftat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Perfect\u2026 \u00eenc\u0103 o mizerie de cur\u0103\u021bat, am murmurat.<\/p>\n
M-am aplecat s\u0103 adun p\u0103m\u00e2ntul cu m\u00e2inile.<\/p>\n
\u0218i atunci am sim\u021bit ceva tare sub degete.<\/p>\n
Am scos bucata din p\u0103m\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n
Era un col\u021b de metal.<\/p>\n
Am dat p\u0103m\u00e2ntul la o parte mai repede.<\/p>\n
Sub r\u0103d\u0103cinile uscate ale plantei era o cutie mic\u0103 de tabl\u0103<\/strong>, ruginit\u0103, dar bine \u00eenchis\u0103.<\/p>\n Inima mi-a \u00eenceput s\u0103 bat\u0103 mai repede.<\/p>\n Nu \u0219tiam de ce.<\/p>\n Cutia era cam c\u00e2t o carte groas\u0103.<\/p>\n Am \u0219ters-o de p\u0103m\u00e2nt cu m\u00e2neca hanoracului.<\/p>\n Capacul era blocat, dar dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva \u00eencerc\u0103ri a cedat cu un sc\u00e2r\u021b\u00e2it.<\/p>\n \u00cen\u0103untru era o pung\u0103 de plastic \u00eeng\u0103lbenit\u0103 de timp.<\/p>\n Am deschis-o.<\/p>\n \u0218i atunci am r\u0103mas f\u0103r\u0103 aer.<\/p>\n \u00cen\u0103untru erau bani<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Nu c\u00e2\u021biva.<\/p>\n Un teanc serios.<\/p>\n Bancnote de 100 \u0219i 200 de lei<\/strong>, legate cu un elastic vechi.<\/p>\n Am stat c\u00e2teva secunde f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 m\u0103 mi\u0219c.<\/p>\n Mintea mea \u00eencerca s\u0103 \u00een\u021beleag\u0103 ce vede.<\/p>\n Am num\u0103rat rapid.<\/p>\n Era aproape 30.000 de lei<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Pentru mine, \u00een acel moment, suma aceea p\u0103rea o avere.<\/p>\n G\u00e2ndurile au \u00eenceput s\u0103 se \u00eenv\u00e2rt\u0103 \u00een capul meu.<\/p>\n Chirie pe un an.<\/p>\n M\u00e2ncare.<\/p>\n Poate chiar un mic start pentru via\u021ba mea.<\/p>\n Dar imediat a venit \u0219i alt g\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n Banii ace\u0219tia nu erau ai mei.<\/p>\n Am \u00eenchis cutia \u0219i am stat pe scaunul vechi din curte.<\/p>\n M\u0103 uitam la ea ca \u0219i cum ar fi putut s\u0103 dispar\u0103.<\/p>\n \u00cen acel moment, u\u0219a casei s-a deschis.<\/p>\n \u2014 Bun\u0103 diminea\u021ba, b\u0103iete, a spus doamna Maria.<\/p>\n Am ridicat privirea.<\/p>\n Femeia se uita la mine \u0219i la cutia din m\u00e2inile mele.<\/p>\n \u2014 Ce-ai g\u0103sit acolo?<\/p>\n Am ezitat o clip\u0103.<\/p>\n Apoi i-am \u00eentins cutia.<\/p>\n \u2014 Cred c\u0103 sunt ai dumneavoastr\u0103.<\/p>\n Femeia a deschis-o.<\/p>\n C\u00e2nd a v\u0103zut banii, m\u00e2inile au \u00eenceput s\u0103-i tremure.<\/p>\n S-a a\u0219ezat \u00eencet pe scaunul de l\u00e2ng\u0103 mine.<\/p>\n \u2014 Doamne\u2026 nu credeam c\u0103 o s\u0103-i mai v\u0103d vreodat\u0103\u2026<\/p>\n Mi-a povestit atunci ceva ce nu aveam s\u0103 uit.<\/p>\n Cu peste zece ani \u00een urm\u0103, so\u021bul ei pusese banii aceia deoparte.<\/p>\n Economii pentru vremuri grele.<\/p>\n Dar \u00eentr-o noapte, dup\u0103 ce a murit, ea a ascuns cutia \u00een ghiveciul acela\u2026 de fric\u0103 s\u0103 nu fie furat\u0103.<\/p>\n Timpul a trecut.<\/p>\n Anii au trecut.<\/p>\n \u0218i pur \u0219i simplu\u2026 uitase.<\/p>\n Ochii ei s-au umplut de lacrimi.<\/p>\n A \u00eenchis cutia \u0219i a stat c\u00e2teva clipe \u00een t\u0103cere.<\/p>\n Apoi s-a \u00eentors spre mine.<\/p>\n \u2014 Dac\u0103 nu erai tu\u2026 banii \u0103\u0219tia r\u0103m\u00e2neau acolo p\u00e2n\u0103 c\u00e2nd casa se f\u0103cea praf.<\/p>\n A luat jum\u0103tate din teanc \u0219i mi l-a \u00eentins.<\/p>\n \u2014 Ia-i.<\/p>\n Am dat din cap.<\/p>\n \u2014 Nu pot.<\/p>\n \u2014 Ba po\u021bi, a spus ea ferm.
