Elena mergea cu un rucsac u\u0219or \u0219i harta \u00eemp\u0103turit\u0103 \u00een buzunar. P\u0103durea era deas\u0103, iar copacii fo\u0219neau ca \u0219i cum ar fi \u0219optit \u00eentre ei. Pe m\u0103sur\u0103 ce \u00eenainta, poteca disp\u0103rea, de parc\u0103 nimeni nu mai trecuse pe acolo de mult timp.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd a ajuns \u00een cele din urm\u0103, cu greu a recunoscut locul ca fiind o locuin\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
Era doar o u\u0219\u0103 de lemn \u00eenfipt\u0103 \u00een p\u0103m\u00e2nt, acoperit\u0103 pe jum\u0103tate cu frunze \u0219i \u021b\u0103r\u00e2n\u0103. \u00cen jur, natura pusese st\u0103p\u00e2nire pe tot.<\/p>\n
Elena a r\u0103mas nemi\u0219cat\u0103 o clip\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014E o prostie \u2014a murmurat.<\/p>\n
Dar ceva din ea a \u00eempins-o s\u0103 continue.<\/p>\n
S-a apropiat, a dat la o parte crengile \u0219i a tras de u\u0219\u0103. Aceasta s-a deschis sc\u00e2r\u021b\u00e2ind, ca \u0219i cum s-ar fi trezit dintr-un somn ad\u00e2nc.<\/p>\n
Ni\u0219te trepte coborau \u00een \u00eentuneric.<\/p>\n
Elena a aprins o lamp\u0103 cu ulei \u0219i a \u00eenceput s\u0103 coboare.<\/p>\n
Aerul de jos era rece, dar nu umed. Asta a mirat-o.<\/p>\n
C\u0103su\u021ba subteran\u0103 era mai mare dec\u00e2t \u00ee\u0219i imaginase. Era o camer\u0103 principal\u0103 cu o mas\u0103 de lemn, un pat simplu \u0219i rafturi \u00een perete. Totul era plin de praf, dar \u00eentreg.<\/p>\n
\u2014Poate nu e chiar a\u0219a r\u0103u \u2014a spus \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
\u0218i-a l\u0103sat rucsacul \u0219i a \u00eenceput s\u0103 se uite prin jur.<\/p>\n
Era o buc\u0103t\u0103rioar\u0103, un fel de c\u0103mar\u0103\u2026 \u0219i un coridor \u00eengust care ducea la o u\u0219\u0103 \u00eenchis\u0103.<\/p>\n
Elena s-a oprit.<\/p>\n
Nu-\u0219i amintea ca Gheorghe s\u0103 fi spus ceva despre \u00eenc\u0103 o camer\u0103.<\/p>\n
S-a apropiat \u00eencet \u0219i a ap\u0103sat clan\u021ba.<\/p>\n
U\u0219a s-a deschis.<\/p>\n
Ce a v\u0103zut a l\u0103sat-o f\u0103r\u0103 suflare.<\/p>\n
Continuare narativ\u0103:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00cen camer\u0103 nu era \u00eentuneric.<\/p>\n Lumina venea dintr-o lamp\u0103 veche, aprins\u0103.<\/p>\n Elena a \u00eenghe\u021bat \u00een prag.<\/p>\n \u2014Dar\u2026 cine\u2026? \u2014a \u0219optit, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103-\u0219i dea seama.<\/p>\n Camera era mic\u0103, dar \u00eengrijit\u0103. Mult prea \u00eengrijit\u0103 pentru un loc abandonat. Pe o mas\u0103 erau borcane cu zacusc\u0103, mur\u0103turi \u0219i c\u00e2teva p\u00e2ini acoperite cu un prosop curat. \u00cen col\u021b, un pat \u00eengust, aranjat ca \u0219i cum cineva tocmai se ridicase din el.<\/p>\n \u0218i atunci a v\u0103zut.<\/p>\n O cutie de lemn, a\u0219ezat\u0103 pe mas\u0103.<\/p>\n Capacul era \u00eentredeschis.<\/p>\n Cu pa\u0219i mici, Elena s-a apropiat.
