Am condus f\u0103r\u0103 direc\u021bie aproape zece minute.<\/p>\n
Nici nu mai \u0219tiam pe ce str\u0103zi eram. Semafor dup\u0103 semafor trecea pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 mine ca prin cea\u021b\u0103. Maria st\u0103tea t\u0103cut\u0103 \u00een spate, cu ursule\u021bul lipit de piept. Nu pl\u00e2ngea. Tocmai asta m\u0103 speria cel mai tare.<\/p>\n
Telefonul vibra continuu pe scaunul din dreapta.<\/p>\n
Andrei.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103spuns cu m\u00e2inile tremur\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
\u201eUnde e\u0219ti?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201eNu \u0219tiu… cred c\u0103 am ajuns spre ie\u0219irea din ora\u0219\u201d, am spus. \u201eAndrei, spune-mi ce se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103!\u201d<\/p>\n
S-a auzit o respira\u021bie grea. Apoi zgomote metalice, ca \u0219i cum ar fi \u00eenchis o u\u0219\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eAscult\u0103-m\u0103 atent. Te duci la motelul de l\u00e2ng\u0103 benzin\u0103ria de pe DN7. Intri, iei o camer\u0103 \u0219i nu spui nim\u0103nui cine e\u0219ti.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201eDe ce? Cine sunt oamenii \u0103ia?\u201d<\/p>\n
A t\u0103cut.<\/p>\n
Iar t\u0103cerea aia m-a speriat mai tare dec\u00e2t sirenele.<\/p>\n
\u201eAndrei!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201eNu caut\u0103 un om\u201d, a spus \u00eencet. \u201eCaut\u0103 ceva ce a fost ascuns \u00een apartamentul Ioanei.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum mi se taie respira\u021bia.<\/p>\n
\u201eCe anume?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201eNu la telefon.\u201d<\/p>\n
A \u00eenchis.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas cu telefonul lipit de ureche c\u00e2teva secunde bune. Parc\u0103 tot aerul din ma\u0219in\u0103 disp\u0103ruse.<\/p>\n
Maria a vorbit pentru prima dat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eMami… mi-e fric\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n
Atunci am \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng.<\/p>\n
\u00cen t\u0103cere. Cu lacrimile curg\u00e2nd f\u0103r\u0103 zgomot.<\/p>\n
Am tras pe dreapta l\u00e2ng\u0103 o benzin\u0103rie. Luminile reci b\u0103teau peste asfaltul ud. Un camionagiu fuma l\u00e2ng\u0103 pomp\u0103, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 \u0219tie c\u0103 lumea mea tocmai se pr\u0103bu\u0219ea.<\/p>\n
Am cobor\u00e2t \u0219i am luat-o pe Maria \u00een bra\u021be.<\/p>\n
\u201eTotul e bine\u201d, \u00eei spuneam, de\u0219i sim\u021beam c\u0103 mint mai r\u0103u ca niciodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen motel mirosea a detergent ieftin \u0219i cafea veche. Recep\u021bionera nici m\u0103car nu s-a uitat la mine c\u00e2nd am pl\u0103tit camera.<\/p>\n
420 de lei pe noapte.<\/p>\n
Am intrat \u0219i am blocat imediat u\u0219a.<\/p>\n
Maria a adormit \u00eembr\u0103cat\u0103, cu adida\u0219ii \u00een picioare.<\/p>\n
Eu st\u0103team pe marginea patului \u0219i m\u0103 uitam la telefon.<\/p>\n
Ora 01:17.<\/p>\n
Niciun mesaj.<\/p>\n
Nimic.<\/p>\n
Apoi, brusc, televizorul din camer\u0103 s-a aprins singur c\u00e2nd curentul a fluctuat o secund\u0103. Pe ecran rulau \u0219tiri locale.<\/p>\n
\u201eOpera\u021biune masiv\u0103 a trupelor speciale \u00eentr-un apartament din Pite\u0219ti… surse apropiate anchetei spun c\u0103 autorit\u0103\u021bile c\u0103utau materiale periculoase…\u201d<\/p>\n
Mi s-a f\u0103cut pielea de g\u0103in\u0103.<\/p>\n
Pe ecran ap\u0103rea blocul Ioanei.<\/p>\n
Banda galben\u0103.<\/p>\n
Masca\u021bi.<\/p>\n
Vecini speria\u021bi.<\/p>\n
\u0218i atunci reporterul a spus ceva care mi-a \u00eenghe\u021bat s\u00e2ngele:<\/p>\n
\u201ePotrivit unor surse, obiectul c\u0103utat ar fi fost introdus \u00een apartament f\u0103r\u0103 \u0219tirea proprietarilor.\u201d<\/p>\n
F\u0103r\u0103 \u0219tirea lor.<\/p>\n
Mi-am dus m\u00e2na la gur\u0103.<\/p>\n
Ioana nu \u0219tia.<\/p>\n
Nimeni nu \u0219tia.<\/p>\n
Atunci telefonul a vibrat din nou.<\/p>\n
Mesaj de la Andrei.<\/p>\n
\u201eNu deschide nim\u0103nui. Vin dup\u0103 voi.\u201d<\/p>\n
At\u00e2t.<\/p>\n
Niciun alt cuv\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n
Au trecut aproape dou\u0103 ore.<\/p>\n
Fiecare zgomot de pe hol m\u0103 f\u0103cea s\u0103 tresar. Fiecare far care intra pe geam \u00eemi oprea inima.<\/p>\n
La 03:46 cineva a b\u0103tut \u00een u\u0219\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cencet.<\/p>\n
De trei ori.<\/p>\n
Maria dormea.<\/p>\n
Eu am r\u0103mas nemi\u0219cat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Apoi s-a auzit vocea lui Andrei.<\/p>\n
\u201eElena… sunt eu.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am fugit la u\u0219\u0103 \u0219i am deschis.<\/p>\n
Ar\u0103ta \u00eengrozitor.<\/p>\n
Fa\u021ba palid\u0103. Geaca murdar\u0103. Ochii ro\u0219ii de oboseal\u0103 \u0219i panic\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen clipa \u00een care a intrat, l-am lovit cu pumnii \u00een piept.<\/p>\n
\u201eCe ai f\u0103cut?!\u201d<\/p>\n
El m-a prins de m\u00e2ini \u0219i a \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103.<\/p>\n
Nu-l v\u0103zusem niciodat\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
Niciodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eAm \u00eencercat s\u0103 v\u0103 protejez\u201d, a spus printre lacrimi. \u201eJur.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u0218i atunci mi-a povestit totul.<\/p>\n
Cu dou\u0103 luni \u00eenainte, un coleg \u00eei ceruse s\u0103 p\u0103streze c\u00e2teva cutii \u201epentru c\u00e2teva zile\u201d. \u00cei promisese bani mul\u021bi. Aproape 30.000 de lei.<\/p>\n
Andrei n-a \u00eentrebat ce era \u00een\u0103untru.<\/p>\n
Aveam rate. Datorii. Maria avea nevoie de tratamente pentru astm. Via\u021ba ne sufoca \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
Cutia fusese mutat\u0103 dintr-un loc \u00een altul p\u00e2n\u0103 ajunsese la Ioana, \u00een boxa de la subsol, f\u0103r\u0103 ca ea s\u0103 \u0219tie.<\/p>\n
Doar c\u0103 oamenii care o c\u0103utau nu erau ni\u0219te ho\u021bi.<\/p>\n
Era brigada antitero.<\/p>\n
\u00cen cutii erau explozibili.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit c\u0103 mi se taie picioarele.<\/p>\n
Andrei tremura tot.<\/p>\n
\u201eC\u00e2nd am aflat ce e acolo, am \u00eencercat s\u0103-i anun\u021b anonim… dar deja m\u0103 urm\u0103reau.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u00cen diminea\u021ba aceea, la ora 05:12, poli\u021bia a b\u0103tut la u\u0219a camerei noastre.<\/p>\n
Andrei s-a ridicat singur \u0219i \u0219i-a \u00eentins m\u00e2inile.<\/p>\n
Nu s-a opus.<\/p>\n
\u00cenainte s\u0103 plece, s-a \u00eentors spre mine \u0219i spre Maria.<\/p>\n
\u0218i pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 multe luni, pe fa\u021ba lui nu mai era panic\u0103.<\/p>\n
Doar ru\u0219ine.<\/p>\n
\u0218i u\u0219urare.<\/p>\n
Un an mai t\u00e2rziu, ne-am mutat \u00eentr-un apartament mic din T\u00e2rgovi\u0219te.<\/p>\n
Nu mai aveam multe.<\/p>\n
Dar aveam lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n
Iar uneori, \u00een serile lini\u0219tite, c\u00e2nd Maria adoarme \u0219i ora\u0219ul tace, m\u0103 g\u00e2ndesc c\u00e2t de aproape am fost s\u0103 pierdem totul.<\/p>\n
Din cauza unei singure alegeri f\u0103cute pentru bani.<\/p>\n
\u0218i atunci \u00een\u021beleg ceva ce n-o s\u0103 uit niciodat\u0103:<\/p>\n
R\u0103ul nu intr\u0103 \u00een via\u021ba oamenilor cu zgomot.<\/p>\n
Intr\u0103 \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
Sub forma unei solu\u021bii rapide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
