Sirenele deveneau din ce \u00een ce mai puternice.<\/p>\n
Sofia f\u0103cu instinctiv un pas \u00eenapoi.<\/p>\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 foarte mult timp, arogan\u021ba \u00eei disp\u0103ruse complet de pe chip.<\/p>\n
\u201eCe-ai f\u0103cut?\u201d \u00eentreb\u0103 ea cu voce tremurat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Elena respir\u0103 greu \u0219i \u00ee\u0219i lipi capul de cimentul rece.<\/p>\n
Din exterior se auzeau portiere tr\u00e2ntite, pa\u0219i gr\u0103bi\u021bi \u0219i ordine strigate.<\/p>\n
Apoi\u2026<\/p>\n
BUM! BUM! BUM!<\/p>\n
Cineva lovea violent \u00een poarta vilei.<\/p>\n
Sofia se \u00eentoarse panicat\u0103 spre cele dou\u0103 menajere.<\/p>\n
\u201eMerge\u021bi sus! Acum!\u201d<\/p>\n
Dar niciuna nu se mi\u0219c\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u0218i ele erau speriate.<\/p>\n
\u00cen secunda urm\u0103toare, beciul fu luminat brusc de fascicule puternice de lantern\u0103.<\/p>\n
Mai mul\u021bi poli\u021bi\u0219ti cobor\u00e2r\u0103 rapid sc\u0103rile.<\/p>\n
\u00cen spatele lor ap\u0103ru un b\u0103rbat \u00eenalt, cu p\u0103rul complet alb \u0219i privirea rece ca ghea\u021ba.<\/p>\n
Sofia \u00eencremeni.<\/p>\n
Elena deschise greu ochii c\u00e2nd \u00eel v\u0103zu.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 treizeci de ani.<\/p>\n
Trei decenii \u00een care jurase c\u0103 nu-l va mai c\u0103uta niciodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Tat\u0103l ei.<\/p>\n
Victor Munteanu.<\/p>\n
Omul despre care toat\u0103 lumea din Bucure\u0219ti credea c\u0103 murise.<\/p>\n
B\u0103rbatul care construise imperiul familiei \u00eenainte s\u0103 dispar\u0103 f\u0103r\u0103 urm\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u0218i omul de care se temeau inclusiv politicienii.<\/p>\n
Victor cobor\u00ee \u00eencet ultimele trepte \u0219i privi scena din beci.<\/p>\n
S\u00e2ngele.<\/p>\n
R\u0103nile.<\/p>\n
Fiica lui aproape moart\u0103.<\/p>\n
Chipul lui nu tr\u0103da nimic.<\/p>\n
Dar lini\u0219tea aceea era mai \u00eenfrico\u0219\u0103toare dec\u00e2t orice \u021bip\u0103t.<\/p>\n
Sofia \u00eencerc\u0103 s\u0103 vorbeasc\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eDomnule\u2026 eu pot explica\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Victor nici m\u0103car nu se uit\u0103 la ea.<\/p>\n
\u201eScoate\u021bi-o de aici\u201d, spuse calm c\u0103tre poli\u021bi\u0219ti.<\/p>\n
Doi agen\u021bi o apucar\u0103 imediat pe Sofia de bra\u021be.<\/p>\n
\u201eNu! Nu ave\u021bi voie! Alexandru o s\u0103\u2014\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201eAlexandru este deja \u00eenc\u0103tu\u0219at\u201d, r\u0103spunse unul dintre poli\u021bi\u0219ti.<\/p>\n
Fa\u021ba Sofiei se f\u0103cu alb\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eNu\u2026 nu e posibil\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Victor se apropie de Elena \u0219i \u00eengenunche l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103, m\u00e2inile lui tremurau.<\/p>\n
\u201eTat\u0103\u2026\u201d \u0219opti Elena printre lacrimi.<\/p>\n
B\u0103rbatul \u00eenchise ochii o secund\u0103.<\/p>\n
Cu treizeci de ani \u00een urm\u0103, Elena plecase de acas\u0103 dup\u0103 o ceart\u0103 cumplit\u0103. \u00cel acuzase c\u0103 puterea \u0219i banii \u00eel transformaser\u0103 \u00eentr-un monstru.<\/p>\n
De atunci nu-\u0219i mai vorbiser\u0103 niciodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dar \u00een noaptea aceea\u2026<\/p>\n
Tot el venise.<\/p>\n
\u201eIart\u0103-m\u0103 c\u0103 am ajuns at\u00e2t de t\u00e2rziu,\u201d spuse \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
Elena \u00eencepu s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103 \u00een lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n
Medicii intrar\u0103 imediat \u0219i o urcar\u0103 pe targ\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen timp ce era scoas\u0103 din beci, \u00eel v\u0103zu pe Alexandru \u00een curte, \u00eenc\u0103tu\u0219at, url\u00e2nd disperat.<\/p>\n
\u201eElena! Ascult\u0103-m\u0103! Sofia m-a manipulat! Eu te iubesc!\u201d<\/p>\n
Ea \u00eel privi c\u00e2teva secunde.<\/p>\n
Omul pentru care renun\u021base la familie.<\/p>\n
Omul c\u0103ruia \u00eei d\u0103duse tot.<\/p>\n
\u0218i omul care aproape o omor\u00e2se.<\/p>\n
Apoi \u00eentoarse capul f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 spun\u0103 un cuv\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n
Dou\u0103 luni mai t\u00e2rziu, toat\u0103 Rom\u00e2nia vorbea despre cazul C\u0103linescu.<\/p>\n
Afacerea lui Alexandru se pr\u0103bu\u0219ise complet dup\u0103 ce ie\u0219iser\u0103 la iveal\u0103 fraude, acte false \u0219i conturi ascunse.<\/p>\n
Sofia \u00eencercase s\u0103 fug\u0103 din \u021bar\u0103, dar fusese prins\u0103 la aeroport.<\/p>\n
Iar Elena?<\/p>\n
Elena supravie\u021buise.<\/p>\n
Greu.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 multe opera\u021bii \u0219i luni \u00eentregi de recuperare.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-o diminea\u021b\u0103 de prim\u0103var\u0103, st\u0103tea pe terasa unei case lini\u0219tite de l\u00e2ng\u0103 Bra\u0219ov, \u00eenvelit\u0103 \u00eentr-o p\u0103tur\u0103 sub\u021bire.<\/p>\n
Victor ie\u0219i afar\u0103 cu dou\u0103 c\u0103ni de cafea.<\/p>\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 zeci de ani, \u00eentre ei nu mai exista furie.<\/p>\n
Doar lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n
\u201e\u0218tii ceva?\u201d spuse Elena \u00eencet privind mun\u021bii. \u201eToat\u0103 via\u021ba am crezut c\u0103 r\u0103zbunarea \u00eenseamn\u0103 s\u0103 distrugi pe cineva.\u201d<\/p>\n
Victor o privi atent.<\/p>\n
\u201e\u0218i acum?\u201d<\/p>\n
Elena z\u00e2mbi slab.<\/p>\n
\u201eAcum cred c\u0103 adev\u0103rata r\u0103zbunare e s\u0103 supravie\u021buie\u0219ti \u0219i s\u0103 fii fericit dup\u0103 ce al\u021bii au vrut s\u0103 te vad\u0103 distrus.\u201d<\/p>\n
Victor ridic\u0103 u\u0219or cana.<\/p>\n
\u201eAsta ai f\u0103cut tu.\u201d<\/p>\n
Iar pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 foarte mul\u021bi ani, Elena chiar sim\u021bi c\u0103 e liber\u0103.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
