\u201e\u2026c\u0103 la noi \u00een cas\u0103 fiecare pl\u0103te\u0219te pentru el.\u201d<\/p>\n
S-a l\u0103sat o lini\u0219te de morm\u00e2nt. Parc\u0103 \u0219i ceasul de pe perete se oprise. Am sim\u021bit cum \u00eemi ard obrajii \u0219i cum \u00eemi bate inima \u00een g\u00e2t. M-am uitat la iubitul meu, Andrei, a\u0219tept\u00e2nd m\u0103car un z\u00e2mbet, o glum\u0103, orice care s\u0103-mi arate c\u0103 nu vorbe\u0219te serios.<\/p>\n
Dar el doar a ridicat din umeri, de parc\u0103 era ceva absolut normal.<\/p>\n
Mama lui, doamna Mariana, s-a a\u0219ezat la loc \u0219i a \u00eenceput s\u0103 r\u0103sfoiasc\u0103 meniul, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 se uite la mine. De parc\u0103 nici nu existam. Chelnerul st\u0103tea \u00een picioare, cu pixul preg\u0103tit, a\u0219tept\u00e2nd comanda, iar eu sim\u021beam c\u0103 m\u0103 scufund \u00een scaun.<\/p>\n
\u201eEu iau ciorb\u0103 de burt\u0103 \u0219i un gr\u0103tar de porc,\u201d a zis tat\u0103l, calm, ca \u0219i cum nimic nu ar fi fost \u00een neregul\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201e\u0218i eu la fel,\u201d a ad\u0103ugat mama.<\/p>\n
Andrei s-a uitat la mine: \u201eTu ce vrei?\u201d<\/p>\n
Vocea mi-a ie\u0219it abia \u0219optit\u0103: \u201eNu mi-e prea foame\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u00cen realitate, stomacul \u00eemi era str\u00e2ns de emo\u021bii. Nu mai conta m\u00e2ncarea. Conta faptul c\u0103 m\u0103 sim\u021beam pus\u0103 \u00eentr-o situa\u021bie jenant\u0103, f\u0103r\u0103 niciun avertisment.<\/p>\n
\u201eHai, nu te sfii,\u201d a insistat el. \u201eIa \u0219i tu ceva.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am comandat \u00een grab\u0103 o salat\u0103, doar ca s\u0103 nu par ciudat\u0103.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd a plecat chelnerul, tat\u0103l lui a b\u0103tut cu degetele \u00een mas\u0103 \u0219i s-a uitat fix la mine.<\/p>\n
\u201e\u0218i\u2026 cu ce te ocupi, Maria?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201eLucrez la o firm\u0103 de contabilitate,\u201d am r\u0103spuns, \u00eencerc\u00e2nd s\u0103-mi p\u0103strez calmul.<\/p>\n
\u201eAha,\u201d a zis el scurt. \u201e\u0218i c\u00e2\u0219tigi bine?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u00centrebarea m-a lovit ca o palm\u0103. Nu \u0219tiam ce s\u0103 spun. \u00cen familia mea, nu se puneau astfel de \u00eentreb\u0103ri la prima \u00eent\u00e2lnire.<\/p>\n
\u201eM\u0103 descurc,\u201d am r\u0103spuns evaziv.<\/p>\n
El a dat din cap, de parc\u0103 evalua un produs la pia\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
Pe m\u0103sur\u0103 ce trecea timpul, tensiunea cre\u0219tea. Fiecare \u00eentrebare era mai incomod\u0103 dec\u00e2t cealalt\u0103. Despre bani, despre p\u0103rin\u021bii mei, despre dac\u0103 am cas\u0103 sau stau \u00een chirie. M\u0103 sim\u021beam ca la un interogatoriu.<\/p>\n
Iar Andrei\u2026 t\u0103cea. Din c\u00e2nd \u00een c\u00e2nd mai z\u00e2mbea, dar nu intervenea deloc.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd a venit nota, chelnerul a pus-o pe mas\u0103, fix \u00een fa\u021ba mea.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum \u00eemi fuge p\u0103m\u00e2ntul de sub picioare.<\/p>\n
Tat\u0103l lui a spus calm: \u201eHai, s\u0103 vedem cum ne descurc\u0103m fiecare.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am luat nota cu m\u00e2inile u\u0219or tremur\u00e2nde. Totalul era mai mare dec\u00e2t m\u0103 a\u0219teptam. Am \u00eenceput s\u0103 calculez rapid, s\u0103 nu gre\u0219esc, s\u0103 nu m\u0103 fac de r\u00e2s.<\/p>\n
\u00cen momentul \u0103la, ceva s-a rupt \u00een mine.<\/p>\n
Nu mai era vorba de bani. Era vorba de respect.<\/p>\n
Am pus nota jos, m-am ridicat \u00een picioare \u0219i am spus, cu o voce mai ferm\u0103 dec\u00e2t m\u0103 a\u0219teptam:<\/p>\n
\u201e\u0218ti\u021bi ceva? Eu nu sunt obi\u0219nuit\u0103 cu genul \u0103sta de \u2018teste\u2019. La mine acas\u0103, c\u00e2nd invi\u021bi pe cineva la mas\u0103, \u00eel invi\u021bi din suflet, nu \u00eel pui s\u0103 scoat\u0103 banii din buzunar.\u201d<\/p>\n
To\u021bi trei au r\u0103mas t\u0103cu\u021bi.<\/p>\n
M-am uitat la Andrei. Pentru prima dat\u0103 \u00een seara aceea, p\u0103rea u\u0219or \u00eencurcat.<\/p>\n
\u201ePuteai s\u0103-mi spui dinainte,\u201d am continuat. \u201eNu m-ar fi deranjat s\u0103 pl\u0103tesc, dar m-ar fi ajutat s\u0103 \u0219tiu \u00een ce m\u0103 bag.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am scos banii pentru partea mea \u0219i i-am l\u0103sat pe mas\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eDar felul \u00een care a\u021bi f\u0103cut-o\u2026 nu e pentru mine.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am luat geanta \u0219i am plecat.<\/p>\n
Aerul de afar\u0103 era rece, dar parc\u0103 m-a trezit. Am tras ad\u00e2nc \u00een piept \u0219i, pentru prima dat\u0103 \u00een acea sear\u0103, m-am sim\u021bit u\u0219urat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Telefonul a \u00eenceput s\u0103 vibreze. Andrei.<\/p>\n
Nu am r\u0103spuns.<\/p>\n
Am mers \u00eencet spre sta\u021bia de autobuz, cu pa\u0219i ap\u0103sa\u021bi, dar siguri. \u00cen capul meu era lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n
Uneori, nu ai nevoie de luni sau ani ca s\u0103 \u00een\u021belegi dac\u0103 un om e potrivit pentru tine.<\/p>\n
\u00ce\u021bi ajunge o singur\u0103 cin\u0103.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
