Lumini\u021ba s-a oprit \u00een mijlocul holului, uit\u00e2ndu-se de la unul la altul. Nu \u00een\u021belegea nimic. Privirea mamei ei se schimbase complet \u2014 nu mai era doar surprins\u0103, era tulburat\u0103, aproape speriat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Maxim a f\u0103cut un pas \u00eenainte. M\u00e2inile \u00eei tremurau u\u0219or.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Natalia\u2026 \u2014 a spus \u00eencet. \u2014 N-am crezut c\u0103 o s\u0103 te mai v\u0103d vreodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen apartament s-a l\u0103sat o lini\u0219te ap\u0103s\u0103toare. Lumini\u021ba sim\u021bea cum inima \u00eei bate tot mai tare.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mam\u0103\u2026 \u00eel cuno\u0219ti? \u2014 a \u00eentrebat ea \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
Natalia \u0219i-a dus m\u00e2na la piept, \u00eencerc\u00e2nd s\u0103-\u0219i adune g\u00e2ndurile.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Da\u2026 \u2014 a spus cu greu. \u2014 \u00cel cunosc\u2026<\/p>\n
Maxim \u0219i-a cobor\u00e2t privirea pentru o clip\u0103, apoi s-a uitat din nou la ea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Eu sunt\u2026 \u2014 a \u00eenceput el, dar s-a oprit, ca \u0219i cum nu \u0219tia de unde s\u0103 \u00eenceap\u0103.<\/p>\n
Lumini\u021ba a sim\u021bit un fior rece.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103 aici? \u2014 a \u00eentrebat mai ap\u0103sat.<\/p>\n
Natalia a inspirat ad\u00e2nc.<\/p>\n
\u2014 El este\u2026 tat\u0103l t\u0103u.<\/p>\n
Cuvintele au c\u0103zut greu, ca o lovitur\u0103.<\/p>\n
Lumini\u021ba a r\u0103mas nemi\u0219cat\u0103. Parc\u0103 nu le auzise bine.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce\u2026? \u2014 a \u0219optit.<\/p>\n
Maxim a f\u0103cut \u00eenc\u0103 un pas spre ea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Da\u2026 \u2014 a spus el. \u2014 Eu sunt.<\/p>\n
Fata s-a retras instinctiv.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu\u2026 nu se poate\u2026 \u2014 murmura ea. \u2014 Mama mi-a spus c\u0103\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2014 C\u0103 nu te-a c\u0103utat niciodat\u0103, \u2014 a continuat Natalia \u00eencet. \u2014 \u0218i a\u0219a a fost\u2026 pentru c\u0103 eu nu i-am spus niciodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Maxim a \u00eenchis ochii pentru o clip\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 N-am \u0219tiut nimic, \u2014 a spus el cu voce joas\u0103. \u2014 Dac\u0103 a\u0219 fi \u0219tiut\u2026 nu a\u0219 fi plecat niciodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Lumini\u021ba sim\u021bea cum i se amestec\u0103 toate \u00een cap. Durerea de ieri, ru\u0219inea, speran\u021bele\u2026 toate p\u0103leau \u00een fa\u021ba acestui adev\u0103r.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i acum\u2026? \u2014 a \u00eentrebat ea, cu vocea tremur\u00e2nd\u0103. \u2014 De ce acum?<\/p>\n
Maxim a z\u00e2mbit trist.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 atunci c\u00e2nd te-am v\u0103zut\u2026 ceva mi-a spus c\u0103 te cunosc. Privirea\u2026 gesturile\u2026 Era ca \u0219i cum o vedeam pe Natalia t\u00e2n\u0103r\u0103, \u00een fa\u021ba mea.<\/p>\n
Natalia a l\u0103sat lacrimile s\u0103-i curg\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Via\u021ba are un fel ciudat de a ne aduce \u00eenapoi ce am pierdut, \u2014 a spus ea \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
Lumini\u021ba s-a a\u0219ezat pe scaun. Avea nevoie de aer.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva minute de lini\u0219te, s-a uitat la Maxim. De data asta altfel.<\/p>\n
Nu ca la un director. Nu ca la un b\u0103rbat str\u0103in.<\/p>\n
Ci ca la cineva care, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 \u0219tie, fusese mereu parte din via\u021ba ei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i acum? \u2014 a \u00eentrebat din nou, mai lini\u0219tit.<\/p>\n
Maxim s-a apropiat, dar s-a oprit la o distan\u021b\u0103 respectuoas\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Acum\u2026 nu vreau s\u0103 for\u021bez nimic. Doar\u2026 dac\u0103 \u00eemi permi\u021bi\u2026 a\u0219 vrea s\u0103 te cunosc. S\u0103 recuperez c\u00e2t se mai poate.<\/p>\n
Lumini\u021ba l-a privit lung.<\/p>\n
Apoi, \u00eencet, a dat din cap.<\/p>\n
Natalia a z\u00e2mbit printre lacrimi.<\/p>\n
\u00cen acea zi, \u00een apartamentul mic, nu s-a vorbit despre bani, nici despre statut, nici despre cine e mai \u201epotrivit\u201d.<\/p>\n
S-a vorbit despre adev\u0103r.<\/p>\n
Despre gre\u0219eli.<\/p>\n
Despre a doua \u0219ans\u0103.<\/p>\n
Iar Lumini\u021ba a \u00een\u021beles, \u00een sf\u00e2r\u0219it, ceva simplu \u0219i puternic:<\/p>\n
nu valoarea ta o decid al\u021bii.<\/p>\n
\u0218i, uneori, via\u021ba \u00ee\u021bi ia ceva\u2026 doar ca s\u0103-\u021bi dea \u00eenapoi ceva mult mai important.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
