Fata s-a oprit din ales merele \u0219i s-a uitat la mine u\u0219or surprins\u0103.<\/p>\n
Avea ni\u0219te ochi calzi, verzi, exact ca piatra din medalion. Pentru o clip\u0103, mi s-a t\u0103iat respira\u021bia.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De la mama mea, a spus ea simplu. \u00cel am de c\u00e2nd eram mic\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum mi se \u00eenmoaie picioarele.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mama ta\u2026 cum o cheam\u0103? am \u00eentrebat, \u00eencerc\u00e2nd s\u0103-mi \u021bin vocea calm\u0103.<\/p>\n
Fata a ezitat o secund\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Lucia.<\/p>\n
Mi-a \u00eenceput inima s\u0103 bat\u0103 nebune\u0219te. Parc\u0103 tot magazinul disp\u0103ruse \u00een jurul meu.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Te rog\u2026 ai putea s\u0103-mi spui unde e acum?<\/p>\n
Fata m-a privit atent, ca \u0219i cum \u00eencerca s\u0103-\u0219i dea seama dac\u0103 sunt nebun sau doar pierdut.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Locuie\u0219te aici, \u00een Cluj. La marginea ora\u0219ului. Dar\u2026 de ce \u00eentreba\u021bi?<\/p>\n
Am \u00eenghi\u021bit \u00een sec.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103\u2026 cred c\u0103 e so\u021bia mea.<\/p>\n
A f\u0103cut un pas \u00een spate, \u0219ocat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Asta nu are cum\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2014 Te rog, am spus. Las\u0103-m\u0103 s\u0103 o v\u0103d. Doar at\u00e2t.<\/p>\n
A stat c\u00e2teva secunde pe g\u00e2nduri, apoi a oftat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Bine. Dar vin \u0219i eu.<\/p>\n
Am mers \u00eempreun\u0103 \u00een lini\u0219te. Eu conduceam, iar ea \u00eemi spunea pe unde s\u0103 o iau. Fiecare minut mi se p\u0103rea o eternitate.<\/p>\n
Am ajuns \u00eentr-un cartier lini\u0219tit, cu case simple, curate. Ne-am oprit \u00een fa\u021ba uneia cu o curte mic\u0103 \u0219i flori la poart\u0103.<\/p>\n
Fata a cobor\u00e2t prima.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mam\u0103! a strigat ea.<\/p>\n
U\u0219a s-a deschis.<\/p>\n
\u0218i acolo\u2026 era ea.<\/p>\n
Lucia.<\/p>\n
Mai matur\u0103, cu c\u00e2teva riduri fine, dar era ea. Aceea\u0219i privire. Aceea\u0219i prezen\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
M-a v\u0103zut.<\/p>\n
\u0218i a \u00eencremenit.<\/p>\n
Pentru c\u00e2teva secunde, nimeni n-a spus nimic.<\/p>\n
Apoi ochii i s-au umplut de lacrimi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mihai\u2026 a \u0219optit.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum \u00eemi fuge p\u0103m\u00e2ntul de sub picioare.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De ce? am reu\u0219it s\u0103 spun. De ce ai plecat?<\/p>\n
A \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103.<\/p>\n
Fata \u2014 fiica noastr\u0103, mi-am dat seama atunci \u2014 se uita de la unul la altul, complet pierdut\u0103.<\/p>\n
Lucia a f\u0103cut un pas spre mine.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Am vrut s\u0103-\u021bi spun\u2026 de at\u00e2tea ori\u2026 dar nu am avut curaj.<\/p>\n
Am str\u00e2ns pumnii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce s\u0103-mi spui? C\u0103 ai disp\u0103rut dou\u0103zeci de ani? C\u0103 m-ai l\u0103sat s\u0103 cred c\u0103 ai murit?<\/p>\n
A dat din cap.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Eram bolnav\u0103, Mihai. Foarte bolnav\u0103. Doctorii mi-au spus c\u0103 mai am pu\u021bin de tr\u0103it. Nu voiam s\u0103 m\u0103 vezi sting\u00e2ndu-m\u0103. Nu voiam s\u0103 suferi.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas f\u0103r\u0103 cuvinte.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Am plecat\u2026 am l\u0103sat biletul\u2026 \u0219i am vrut doar s\u0103 dispar lini\u0219tit\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dar n-ai murit.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu. A fost un miracol. Am g\u0103sit un tratament. Am tr\u0103it\u2026 dar mi-a fost ru\u0219ine s\u0103 m\u0103 \u00eentorc. Trecuse prea mult timp. \u0218i\u2026 eram \u00eens\u0103rcinat\u0103.<\/p>\n
M-am uitat la fat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Totul \u00eencepea s\u0103 se lege.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ea\u2026 e fiica mea?<\/p>\n
Lucia a dat din cap, pl\u00e2ng\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
Fata s-a apropiat \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Tata\u2026? a spus, cu voce tremurat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum mi se rupe ceva \u00een piept.<\/p>\n
Am f\u0103cut un pas spre ea \u0219i am \u00eembr\u0103\u021bi\u0219at-o.<\/p>\n
Str\u00e2ns.<\/p>\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103 \u00een via\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
Lacrimile curgeau f\u0103r\u0103 oprire.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva minute, m-am uitat din nou la Lucia.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dou\u0103zeci de ani\u2026 am spus. Dar \u00eenc\u0103 te iubesc.<\/p>\n
A izbucnit \u00een pl\u00e2ns.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i eu\u2026 \u00een fiecare zi.<\/p>\n
Am inspirat ad\u00e2nc.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci hai s\u0103 nu mai pierdem niciunul.<\/p>\n
\u00cen ziua aceea, via\u021ba mea s-a schimbat complet.<\/p>\n
Am pierdut dou\u0103zeci de ani.<\/p>\n
Dar am reg\u0103sit tot ce conta.<\/p>\n
\u0218i, uneori, chiar \u0219i dup\u0103 at\u00e2ta timp, via\u021ba \u00ee\u021bi mai d\u0103 o \u0219ans\u0103.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
