U\u0219a a mai trosnit o dat\u0103, mai tare.<\/p>\n
Eliza sim\u021bea cum \u00eei tremur\u0103 genunchii, dar nu s-a mi\u0219cat. Parc\u0103 trupul nu mai era al ei.<\/p>\n
Ion nu s-a gr\u0103bit.<\/p>\n
S-a apropiat de u\u0219\u0103 \u00eencet, cu pa\u0219i ap\u0103sa\u021bi, \u021bin\u00e2nd pu\u0219ca jos, dar preg\u0103tit\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pleac\u0103, Costel \u2014a spus el scurt\u2014. T\u00e2rgul s-a f\u0103cut.<\/p>\n
Afar\u0103 s-a auzit un r\u00e2s scurt, batjocoritor.<\/p>\n
\u2014 T\u00e2rgul s-a schimbat! Am zis c\u0103 a fost o gre\u0219eal\u0103! D\u0103-mi fata \u0219i-\u021bi dau \u00eenapoi banii\u2026 plus \u00eenc\u0103 500 de lei pentru deranj!<\/p>\n
Eliza a sim\u021bit cum i se str\u00e2nge stomacul.<\/p>\n
At\u00e2t valora?<\/p>\n
At\u00e2t fusese mereu?<\/p>\n
Ion nu a r\u0103spuns imediat.<\/p>\n
A deschis u\u0219a doar c\u00e2t s\u0103 ias\u0103 el, \u00eenchiz\u00e2nd-o \u00een urma lui.<\/p>\n
Eliza a r\u0103mas \u00een\u0103untru, dar s-a apropiat \u00eencet, sprijinindu-se de perete, p\u00e2n\u0103 c\u00e2nd a ajuns l\u00e2ng\u0103 u\u0219\u0103. A lipit urechea de lemn.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu e de v\u00e2nzare \u2014a spus Ion, mai tare acum.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu e treaba ta! \u2014a r\u0103cnit Costel\u2014. E s\u00e2nge din s\u00e2ngele meu!<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci de ce ai v\u00e2ndut-o?<\/p>\n
T\u0103cere.<\/p>\n
Pentru o clip\u0103, v\u00e2ntul a fost singurul care se auzea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu te b\u0103ga unde nu-\u021bi fierbe oala \u2014a morm\u0103it Costel\u2014. Nu \u0219tii tu ce-i mai bine.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ba \u0219tiu \u2014a spus Ion\u2014. \u0218i mai \u0219tiu \u0219i de ce te-ai \u00eentors.<\/p>\n
Inima Elizei a \u00eenceput s\u0103 bat\u0103 nebune\u0219te.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ai venit pentru c\u0103 \u021bi-e fric\u0103 \u2014a continuat Ion\u2014. \u021ai-e fric\u0103 c\u0103 o s\u0103 afle \u0219i al\u021bii ce-ai f\u0103cut.<\/p>\n
Un scaun a c\u0103zut afar\u0103. Pa\u0219i grei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ai grij\u0103 ce spui!<\/p>\n
\u2014 I-ai rupt piciorul \u2014a spus Ion, rar\u2014. \u0218i ai l\u0103sat-o a\u0219a.<\/p>\n
Lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n
Una ap\u0103s\u0103toare, ca \u00eenainte de furtun\u0103.<\/p>\n
Eliza a dus m\u00e2na la gur\u0103. Lacrimile i-au \u021b\u00e2\u0219nit f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103-\u0219i dea seama.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Min\u021bi! \u2014a urlat Costel, dar vocea \u00eei tremura\u2014. A c\u0103zut singur\u0103!<\/p>\n
\u2014 Era copil \u2014a r\u0103spuns Ion\u2014. \u0218i tu erai beat.<\/p>\n
Un zgomot surd, ca un pas f\u0103cut \u00eenapoi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pleac\u0103 \u2014a mai spus Ion\u2014. Acum.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu plec f\u0103r\u0103 ea!<\/p>\n
\u00cen clipa urm\u0103toare s-a auzit un foc de arm\u0103.<\/p>\n
Eliza a tres\u0103rit \u0219i s-a pr\u0103bu\u0219it pe podea, \u021bip\u00e2nd f\u0103r\u0103 sunet.<\/p>\n
A urmat lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n
Secunde lungi.<\/p>\n
Apoi pa\u0219i.<\/p>\n
U\u0219a s-a deschis.<\/p>\n
Ion a intrat, \u00eenchiz\u00e2nd \u00een urma lui.<\/p>\n
\u2014 E\u0219ti bine? \u2014a \u00eentrebat.<\/p>\n
Eliza s-a uitat la el, tremur\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce\u2026 ce s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat?<\/p>\n
\u2014 A plecat \u2014a spus el simplu.<\/p>\n
Ea a \u00een\u021beles.<\/p>\n
Nu mai avea s\u0103 se \u00eentoarc\u0103.<\/p>\n
Nu dup\u0103 felul \u00een care spusese Ion \u201ea plecat\u201d.<\/p>\n
A izbucnit \u00een pl\u00e2ns.<\/p>\n
Nu de fric\u0103.<\/p>\n
Ci de eliberare.<\/p>\n
Ani \u00eentregi de durere, de minciuni, de umilin\u021b\u0103\u2026 toate ie\u0219eau acum la suprafa\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
Ion nu s-a apropiat prea mult.<\/p>\n
Doar a pus o p\u0103tur\u0103 pe umerii ei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu mai e\u0219ti a nim\u0103nui \u2014i-a spus \u00eencet\u2014. Niciodat\u0103 n-ai fost.<\/p>\n
Eliza a ridicat privirea.<\/p>\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103, cu adev\u0103rat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i\u2026 piciorul? \u2014a \u0219optit.<\/p>\n
Ion a oftat u\u0219or.<\/p>\n
\u2014 O s\u0103 doar\u0103 \u2014a spus\u2014. Dar se poate \u00eendrepta. \u00cencet. Cu r\u0103bdare.<\/p>\n
Ea a dat din cap.<\/p>\n
Lacrimi \u00eei curgeau \u00eenc\u0103, dar printre ele ap\u0103rea ceva nou.<\/p>\n
Speran\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
Afar\u0103, viscolul \u00eencepea s\u0103 se lini\u0219teasc\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen\u0103untru, pentru prima dat\u0103 \u00een via\u021ba ei, Eliza nu se mai sim\u021bea o povar\u0103.<\/p>\n
