Nu am mai stat pe g\u00e2nduri.<\/p>\n
Am \u00eemp\u0103turit bile\u021belul, l-am ascuns \u00een buzunarul halatului \u0219i i-am f\u0103cut semn Luciei s\u0103 tac\u0103. Inima \u00eemi b\u0103tea at\u00e2t de tare \u00eenc\u00e2t aveam impresia c\u0103 o s\u0103-l trezeasc\u0103 pe Andrei.<\/p>\n
Am a\u0219teptat c\u00e2teva secunde.<\/p>\n
El respira lini\u0219tit. Prea lini\u0219tit.<\/p>\n
M-am ridicat \u00eencet din pat \u0219i am ie\u0219it din camer\u0103 cu Lucia dup\u0103 mine, descul\u021b\u0103, lipit\u0103 de perete ca o umbr\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen buc\u0103t\u0103rie, am aprins doar lumina de la hot\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Unde e cabana? am \u00eentrebat \u00een \u0219oapt\u0103, de\u0219i \u0219tiam r\u0103spunsul.<\/p>\n
Era locul unde mergeam vara, la munte, l\u00e2ng\u0103 Bra\u0219ov. Un loc retras, mo\u0219tenit de la p\u0103rin\u021bii lui Bogdan. Dup\u0103 \u201eaccident\u201d, nu mai fusesem niciodat\u0103 acolo.<\/p>\n
Nu avusesem puterea.<\/p>\n
Dar acum\u2026 ceva m\u0103 \u00eempingea \u00eenainte.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mami\u2026 mergem acum? a \u00eentrebat Lucia.<\/p>\n
Am privit ceasul. Aproape dou\u0103 noaptea.<\/p>\n
Am ezitat o clip\u0103.<\/p>\n
Apoi am spus hot\u0103r\u00e2t:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Da. Acum.<\/p>\n
Am \u00eembr\u0103cat-o repede, mi-am luat cheile \u0219i geanta, iar \u00eenainte s\u0103 ies, m-am \u00eentors o secund\u0103 spre dormitor.<\/p>\n
Andrei nu se mi\u0219case.<\/p>\n
Dar, pentru prima dat\u0103, mi s-a p\u0103rut c\u0103 lini\u0219tea lui nu e normal\u0103\u2026 ci suspect\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am \u00eenchis u\u0219a f\u0103r\u0103 zgomot.<\/p>\n
Drumul p\u00e2n\u0103 la caban\u0103 a fost lung \u0219i t\u0103cut.<\/p>\n
\u0218oseaua era aproape goal\u0103, doar c\u00e2teva tiruri din c\u00e2nd \u00een c\u00e2nd. Lucia adormise pe scaunul din dreapta, str\u00e2ng\u00e2nd ursule\u021bul la piept.<\/p>\n
Eu nu puteam clipi.<\/p>\n
G\u00e2ndurile m\u0103 loveau unul dup\u0103 altul.<\/p>\n
Dac\u0103 Bogdan \u0219tia c\u0103 i se poate \u00eent\u00e2mpla ceva\u2026<\/p>\n
Dac\u0103 nu a fost accident\u2026<\/p>\n
Atunci ce a fost?<\/p>\n
\u0218i mai ales\u2026 ce leg\u0103tur\u0103 avea Andrei?<\/p>\n
Am ajuns \u00een zori.<\/p>\n
Caban\u0103 ar\u0103ta la fel \u2014 lini\u0219tit\u0103, ascuns\u0103 \u00eentre brazi, de parc\u0103 timpul nu trecuse deloc pe acolo.<\/p>\n
Am descuiat cu m\u00e2inile tremur\u00e2nde.<\/p>\n
Aerul din\u0103untru era rece, \u00eenchis, dar familiar.<\/p>\n
Am intrat direct \u00een sufragerie.<\/p>\n
Covorul era acolo.<\/p>\n
Vechea carpete rom\u00e2neasc\u0103, cu model ro\u0219u \u0219i negru, pe care o \u0219tiam pe de rost.<\/p>\n
M-am apropiat.<\/p>\n
Am inspirat ad\u00e2nc.<\/p>\n
\u0218i l-am ridicat.<\/p>\n
Sub el\u2026 era o trap\u0103 mic\u0103 de lemn.<\/p>\n
Nu fusese niciodat\u0103 acolo.<\/p>\n
Sau poate fusese\u2026 dar nu o observasem.<\/p>\n
Am deschis-o.<\/p>\n
Un miros greu, de lemn \u0219i umezeal\u0103, m-a izbit.<\/p>\n
\u00cen\u0103untru \u2014 o cutie metalic\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am scos-o cu grij\u0103 \u0219i am pus-o pe podea.<\/p>\n
Lucia se uita la mine f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 scoat\u0103 un sunet.<\/p>\n
Am deschis capacul.<\/p>\n
\u00cen\u0103untru erau h\u00e2rtii.<\/p>\n
Fotografii.<\/p>\n
\u0218i un plic mai gros.<\/p>\n
Am \u00eenceput s\u0103 r\u0103sfoiesc.<\/p>\n
Poze cu ma\u0219ina noastr\u0103\u2026 dar nu pe marginea unui drum.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-un garaj.<\/p>\n
Alte poze cu Bogdan\u2026 vorbind cu cineva.<\/p>\n
\u0218i apoi\u2026 am \u00eenghe\u021bat.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-una dintre fotografii era Andrei.<\/p>\n
Cu cinci ani mai t\u00e2n\u0103r.<\/p>\n
St\u00e2nd l\u00e2ng\u0103 Bogdan.<\/p>\n
\u0218i\u2026 \u021bin\u00e2nd \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103 un teanc de bani.<\/p>\n
Am deschis plicul.<\/p>\n
Era o scrisoare.<\/p>\n
\u201eAm intrat \u00eentr-o poveste murdar\u0103, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103-mi dau seama c\u00e2t de ad\u00e2nc e. Andrei m-a convins c\u0103 e doar o afacere rapid\u0103. Transport. Nimic grav. Dar nu e adev\u0103rat. Dac\u0103 cite\u0219ti asta, \u00eenseamn\u0103 c\u0103 lucrurile au mers prost. Nu a fost un accident. Dac\u0103 nu m\u0103 \u00eentorc\u2026 s\u0103 \u0219tii c\u0103 el \u0219tie tot.\u201d<\/p>\n
M\u00e2inile mi-au \u00eenceput s\u0103 tremure.<\/p>\n
Totul se lega.<\/p>\n
Andrei nu fusese salvarea mea.<\/p>\n
Fusese\u2026 \u00eenceputul co\u0219marului.<\/p>\n
\u00cen clipa aceea, am auzit un zgomot \u00een spate.<\/p>\n
Un sc\u00e2r\u021b\u00e2it de podea.<\/p>\n
M-am \u00eentors \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
\u00cen u\u0219\u0103\u2026<\/p>\n
Era el.<\/p>\n
Andrei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu trebuia s\u0103 vii aici, a spus calm.<\/p>\n
Lucia s-a lipit de mine.<\/p>\n
Eu am str\u00e2ns scrisoarea \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Tu ai f\u0103cut asta\u2026 nu-i a\u0219a?<\/p>\n
A z\u00e2mbit u\u0219or. Rece.<\/p>\n
\u2014 A fost mai simplu a\u0219a.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Copiii mei\u2026?<\/p>\n
Pentru o secund\u0103, a t\u0103cut.<\/p>\n
Apoi a spus:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu trebuia s\u0103 fie acolo.<\/p>\n
Lumea mea s-a pr\u0103bu\u0219it din nou.<\/p>\n
Dar de data asta\u2026 nu am mai t\u0103cut.<\/p>\n
Am scos telefonul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Totul e deja trimis, am spus. La poli\u021bie.<\/p>\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103, fa\u021ba lui s-a schimbat.<\/p>\n
Sirenele s-au auzit \u00een dep\u0103rtare.<\/p>\n
Totul s-a terminat repede dup\u0103.<\/p>\n
Andrei a fost arestat.<\/p>\n
Adev\u0103rul a ie\u0219it la iveal\u0103.<\/p>\n
Iar eu\u2026<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas \u00een fa\u021ba cabanei, cu Lucia de m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
Nu mai aveam trecut.<\/p>\n
Dar, pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 cinci ani\u2026<\/p>\n
Aveam adev\u0103rul.<\/p>\n
