S-a uitat la mama lui, doamna Elena. Apoi la Maria.<\/p>\n
\u0218i a \u0219optit:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Apa\u2026 verifica\u021bi apa\u2026 Adrian\u2026<\/p>\n
A fost slab, dar suficient.<\/p>\n
Doamna Elena a ridicat capul \u0219i l-a privit pe Adrian. Pentru prima dat\u0103 f\u0103r\u0103 iluzii.<\/p>\n
Adrian s-a apropiat imediat:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Delireaz\u0103\u2026 nu \u0219tie ce spune.<\/p>\n
Dar era prea t\u00e2rziu.<\/p>\n
\u00cendoiala intrase \u00een camer\u0103.<\/p>\n
Iar c\u00e2nd \u00eendoiala se \u00eent\u00e2lne\u0219te cu frica, cre\u0219te repede.<\/p>\n
A doua zi diminea\u021b\u0103, au venit rezultatele.<\/p>\n
Rezultatele au ajuns \u00eentr-un plic simplu, f\u0103r\u0103 antet, f\u0103r\u0103 semn\u0103turi oficiale.<\/p>\n
Doctorul Andrei l-a desf\u0103cut cu m\u00e2inile u\u0219or tremur\u00e2nde.<\/p>\n
A citit o dat\u0103.<\/p>\n
A doua oar\u0103.<\/p>\n
Apoi a ridicat privirea spre Ana.<\/p>\n
\u2014 E otrav\u0103.<\/p>\n
Cuv\u00e2ntul a c\u0103zut greu, ca o sentin\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen ap\u0103 erau urme clare de substan\u021be toxice industriale. Nu doar at\u00e2t \u2014 aceea\u0219i substan\u021b\u0103 se reg\u0103sea \u0219i \u00een analizele lui Radu, \u00een concentra\u021bii mici, dar constante. Ca \u0219i cum fusese otr\u0103vit lent, zi de zi.<\/p>\n
Ana a sim\u021bit cum i se str\u00e2nge stomacul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dar cum\u2026?<\/p>\n
Doctorul a inspirat ad\u00e2nc.
\n\u2014 Nu e o \u00eent\u00e2mplare.<\/p>\n
\u00cen acel moment, u\u0219a s-a deschis brusc.<\/p>\n
Adrian intrase.<\/p>\n
Privirea lui a trecut de la unul la altul, oprindu-se pe plic.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce e asta?<\/p>\n
Doctorul nu a r\u0103spuns imediat. L-a privit drept \u00een ochi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Adev\u0103rul.<\/p>\n
Pentru o frac\u021biune de secund\u0103, masca lui Adrian a cr\u0103pat.<\/p>\n
At\u00e2t a fost nevoie.<\/p>\n
Ana a observat.<\/p>\n
\u0218i Maria, care st\u0103tea \u00eentr-un col\u021b, cu m\u00e2inile str\u00e2nse pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 corp, a \u00een\u021beles.<\/p>\n
\u2014 El \u0219tie\u2026 \u2014 a \u0219optit ea.<\/p>\n
Adrian a izbucnit:
\n\u2014 E absurd! O minciun\u0103! O s\u0103 v\u0103 coste scump!<\/p>\n
Dar vocea lui nu mai avea siguran\u021ba de mai devreme.<\/p>\n
Doctorul a f\u0103cut un pas \u00eenainte.
\n\u2014 Substan\u021ba asta se g\u0103se\u0219te \u00een materiale industriale. \u00cen construc\u021bii. Exact genul de proiecte pe care le conducea\u021bi.<\/p>\n
T\u0103cere.<\/p>\n
Greu de dus.<\/p>\n
Doamna Elena a intrat \u0219i ea \u00een \u00eenc\u0103pere, sprijinit\u0103 de perete.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Spune adev\u0103rul\u2026 \u2014 a zis \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
Adrian a r\u00e2s scurt, nervos.
\n\u2014 Vre\u021bi adev\u0103rul? Tat\u0103l vostru voia s\u0103 ias\u0103 din firm\u0103! S\u0103 schimbe tot! S\u0103 recunoasc\u0103 nereguli, s\u0103 pl\u0103teasc\u0103 desp\u0103gubiri! Ne-ar fi ruinat!<\/p>\n
Maria a sim\u021bit cum \u00eei \u00eenghea\u021b\u0103 s\u00e2ngele.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i atunci\u2026 \u2014 a murmurat Ana.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci l-am ajutat s\u0103 tac\u0103.<\/p>\n
Cuvintele au r\u0103sunat ca o lovitur\u0103.<\/p>\n
Doamna Elena a \u00eenchis ochii, ca \u0219i cum ar fi primit o palm\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 E\u0219ti fiul meu\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2014 Sunt omul care a salvat tot! \u2014 a izbucnit Adrian. \u2014 Averea, firma, viitorul!<\/p>\n
\u00cen acel moment, doi poli\u021bi\u0219ti au intrat \u00een salon.<\/p>\n
Doctorul chemase deja autorit\u0103\u021bile.<\/p>\n
Adrian nu s-a opus c\u00e2nd i-au pus c\u0103tu\u0219ele. Era prea t\u00e2rziu.<\/p>\n
Totul se pr\u0103bu\u0219ise.<\/p>\n
\u00cen lini\u0219tea care a urmat, Maria a r\u0103mas nemi\u0219cat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Ana s-a apropiat de ea.
\n\u2014 Dac\u0103 nu veneai\u2026<\/p>\n
Maria a dat din cap.
\n\u2014 Mama mea a murit cu apa asta \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
A privit spre pat.<\/p>\n
Radu respira \u00eenc\u0103, slab, dar stabil.<\/p>\n
Doctorul a venit l\u00e2ng\u0103 ele.
\n\u2014 L-am prins la timp. Acum \u0219tim ce are. \u00cel putem trata.<\/p>\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103, Maria a sim\u021bit c\u0103 ceva se repar\u0103.<\/p>\n
Nu tot.<\/p>\n
Dar ceva.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2ni, Radu a fost externat.<\/p>\n
Nu mai era acela\u0219i om.<\/p>\n
A mers personal \u00een cartierul Mariei.<\/p>\n
F\u0103r\u0103 camere.<\/p>\n
F\u0103r\u0103 pres\u0103.<\/p>\n
A stat pe aceea\u0219i banc\u0103 unde murise mama ei.<\/p>\n
\u0218i a promis.<\/p>\n
Nu cu vorbe mari.<\/p>\n
Ci cu fapte.<\/p>\n
\u00cen luni de zile, zona a avut ap\u0103 curat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Conducte noi.<\/p>\n
Controale reale.<\/p>\n
\u0218i oameni care nu mai trebuiau s\u0103 miroas\u0103 apa \u00eenainte s\u0103 o bea.<\/p>\n
Maria nu mai vindea sticle la poarta spitalului.<\/p>\n
Se angajase acolo.<\/p>\n
Cu contract.<\/p>\n
Cu acte.<\/p>\n
Cu un viitor.<\/p>\n
Uneori, c\u00e2nd trecea pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 salonul de terapie intensiv\u0103, se oprea o clip\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u0218i \u00ee\u0219i amintea.<\/p>\n
C\u0103 uneori, adev\u0103rul nu vine strig\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
Vine \u00een lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-o sticl\u0103 cr\u0103pat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u0218i schimb\u0103 tot.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
