M-am uitat la bastonul rezemat l\u00e2ng\u0103 u\u0219\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci o s\u0103-i par\u0103 r\u0103u c\u0103 a subestimat o b\u0103tr\u00e2n\u0103 singur\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dar \u00een s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2na aceea Adrian s-a schimbat.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit \u00eenainte s\u0103-mi spun\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n
Lucia a venit mai t\u00e2rziu.<\/p>\n
Nu la 8:17.<\/p>\n
La 8:41.<\/p>\n
Nu avea zah\u0103r \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
Avea buza spart\u0103.<\/p>\n
Iar Emanuel pl\u00e2ngea lipit de pieptul ei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i-a dat seama, a \u0219optit.<\/p>\n
Am \u00eenchis u\u0219a repede.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De ce?<\/p>\n
Lucia n-a mai apucat s\u0103 r\u0103spund\u0103.<\/p>\n
Pe hol s-au auzit pa\u0219i.<\/p>\n
Lenti.<\/p>\n
Grei.<\/p>\n
Siguri.<\/p>\n
Apoi cineva a b\u0103tut la u\u0219a mea<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum mi se \u00eencordeaz\u0103 tot corpul.<\/p>\n
Lucia a \u00eencremenit cu copilul \u00een bra\u021be.<\/p>\n
Emanuel pl\u00e2ngea \u00eencet, ag\u0103\u021b\u00e2ndu-se de bluza mamei lui.<\/p>\n
B\u0103t\u0103ile \u00een u\u0219\u0103 s-au auzit din nou.<\/p>\n
Mai puternice.<\/p>\n
Mai nervoase.<\/p>\n
M-am apropiat \u00eencet \u0219i am pus m\u00e2na pe baston.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Carmen\u2026 \u0219opti Lucia. Dac\u0103 e el, spune c\u0103 n-am venit aici\u2026<\/p>\n
M-am \u00eentors spre ea.<\/p>\n
Avea fa\u021ba alb\u0103 ca varul.<\/p>\n
\u0218i atunci m-am enervat cu adev\u0103rat.<\/p>\n
Nu exist\u0103 nimic mai ur\u00e2t dec\u00e2t s\u0103 vezi o femeie t\u00e2n\u0103r\u0103 tremur\u00e2nd de frica propriului so\u021b.<\/p>\n
Am deschis u\u0219a doar c\u00e2t s\u0103 m\u0103 uit.<\/p>\n
Adrian st\u0103tea pe hol.<\/p>\n
\u00cenalt.<\/p>\n
Barb\u0103 de dou\u0103 zile.<\/p>\n
Geac\u0103 neagr\u0103.<\/p>\n
Privirea aia pe care o au b\u0103rba\u021bii care cred c\u0103 lumea le apar\u021bine.<\/p>\n
S-a uitat peste um\u0103rul meu.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Bun\u0103 ziua. So\u021bia mea e aici?<\/p>\n
Mi-am sprijinit bastonul \u00een prag.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu.<\/p>\n
El a z\u00e2mbit fals.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Am auzit copilul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Auzi prost.<\/p>\n
A \u00eencercat s\u0103 se uite iar \u00een\u0103untru.<\/p>\n
Eu nu m-am mi\u0219cat nici un centimetru.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Doamn\u0103, nu vreau probleme. Lucia e pu\u021bin\u2026 sensibil\u0103. Exagereaz\u0103 multe lucruri.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum \u00eemi urc\u0103 s\u00e2ngele \u00een cap.<\/p>\n
Exact a\u0219a vorbesc to\u021bi.<\/p>\n
Mai \u00eent\u00e2i le fac victime pe femei.<\/p>\n
Apoi le fac nebune.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pleac\u0103 de la u\u0219a mea, am spus \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
Z\u00e2mbetul i-a disp\u0103rut.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cred c\u0103 nu \u00een\u021belege\u021bi. Vorbim despre familia mea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu. Vorbim despre o femeie speriat\u0103 \u0219i un copil care pl\u00e2nge de fiecare dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd \u00ee\u021bi aude pa\u0219ii.<\/p>\n
Ochii lui s-au \u00eentunecat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 B\u0103tr\u00e2no, nu te b\u0103ga unde nu-\u021bi fierbe oala.<\/p>\n
Acolo a gre\u0219it.<\/p>\n
Pentru c\u0103 eu suport multe.<\/p>\n
Dar nu amenin\u021b\u0103ri \u00een casa mea.<\/p>\n
Am ridicat bastonul \u0219i l-am lovit puternic \u00een u\u0219\u0103.<\/p>\n
Sunetul a r\u0103sunat pe tot holul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ascult\u0103-m\u0103 bine, b\u0103iete. Eu am \u0219aptezeci \u0219i doi de ani. Mi-am \u00eengropat so\u021bul, p\u0103rin\u021bii \u0219i un copil. Nu mi-e fric\u0103 de tine. Dar \u021bie ar trebui s\u0103-\u021bi fie fric\u0103 de mine dac\u0103 mai ridici m\u00e2na la fata aia.<\/p>\n
El a r\u0103mas \u0219ocat c\u00e2teva secunde.<\/p>\n
Probabil nu se a\u0219tepta ca \u201eb\u0103tr\u00e2nica singur\u0103\u201d s\u0103-l \u00eenfrunte.<\/p>\n
Atunci s-a auzit alt\u0103 u\u0219\u0103 deschiz\u00e2ndu-se pe palier.<\/p>\n
Apoi \u00eenc\u0103 una.<\/p>\n
Vecinii.<\/p>\n
Doamna Mariana de la patru.<\/p>\n
Domnul Petre.<\/p>\n
T\u00e2n\u0103rul de la garsonier\u0103.<\/p>\n
To\u021bi se uitau.<\/p>\n
\u0218i pentru prima dat\u0103, Adrian nu mai p\u0103rea at\u00e2t de sigur pe el.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ave\u021bi grij\u0103 ce spune\u021bi, morm\u0103i el.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Avem grij\u0103 \u0219i la ce auzim, spuse doamna Mariana. \u0218i te-am auzit destul \u00een ultimele luni.<\/p>\n
Fa\u021ba lui Adrian s-a schimbat.<\/p>\n
Pentru c\u0103 atunci a \u00een\u021beles ceva simplu:<\/p>\n
Mon\u0219trii sunt puternici doar c\u00e2t timp victimele stau singure.<\/p>\n
A f\u0103cut un pas \u00eenapoi.<\/p>\n
Apoi \u00eenc\u0103 unul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Lucia! strig\u0103 el spre apartament. Hai acas\u0103!<\/p>\n
\u00cen spatele meu, Lucia \u00eencepuse s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103 \u00een t\u0103cere.<\/p>\n
Am deschis u\u0219a mai larg.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu merge nic\u0103ieri cu tine.<\/p>\n
Adrian m-a privit plin de ur\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dar pe hol erau acum prea mul\u021bi martori.<\/p>\n
\u0218i el \u0219tia asta.<\/p>\n
A scuipat o \u00eenjur\u0103tur\u0103 printre din\u021bi \u0219i a plecat spre sc\u0103ri.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas nemi\u0219cat\u0103 p\u00e2n\u0103 i-am auzit motocicleta pornind.<\/p>\n
Abia atunci Lucia s-a pr\u0103bu\u0219it pe un scaun.<\/p>\n
Tremura toat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am \u00eengenuncheat l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Gata. S-a terminat.<\/p>\n
Ea a dat din cap printre lacrimi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu\u2026 nu se termin\u0103 niciodat\u0103 at\u00e2t de u\u0219or\u2026<\/p>\n
Poate avea dreptate.<\/p>\n
Dar \u00een seara aceea, pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 mult timp, nu mai era singur\u0103.<\/p>\n
L-am sunat pe nepotul meu.<\/p>\n
Apoi pe o asocia\u021bie pentru femei abuzate.<\/p>\n
Apoi pe sora ei.<\/p>\n
Totul s-a mi\u0219cat repede dup\u0103 aceea.<\/p>\n
Mai repede dec\u00e2t crezusem.<\/p>\n
\u00cen dou\u0103 zile, Lucia \u0219i Emanuel au plecat din bloc.<\/p>\n
Nu cu fric\u0103.<\/p>\n
Cu acte.<\/p>\n
Cu ajutor.<\/p>\n
Cu oameni care o a\u0219teptau.<\/p>\n
\u00cenainte s\u0103 urce \u00een ma\u0219in\u0103, Lucia m-a \u00eembr\u0103\u021bi\u0219at at\u00e2t de tare \u00eenc\u00e2t am sim\u021bit cum \u00eei bate inima.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mi-a\u021bi salvat via\u021ba, a \u0219optit.<\/p>\n
I-am m\u00e2ng\u00e2iat obrazul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu eu, mam\u0103. Tu ai salvat-o \u00een ziua \u00een care ai b\u0103tut la u\u0219a mea.<\/p>\n
Au trecut aproape opt luni de atunci.<\/p>\n
\u00cen fiecare duminic\u0103 primesc poze cu Emanuel.<\/p>\n
Are obraji rotunzi acum.<\/p>\n
\u0218i z\u00e2mbe\u0219te mult.<\/p>\n
Lucia lucreaz\u0103 \u00eentr-o cofet\u0103rie din Cluj.<\/p>\n
Mi-a spus c\u0103 \u00eenc\u0103 se sperie c\u00e2nd aude motociclete pe strad\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dar c\u0103 acum poate dormi cu geamul deschis.<\/p>\n
Iar uneori asta \u00eenseamn\u0103 libertate.<\/p>\n
Azi diminea\u021b\u0103 mi-am f\u0103cut cafeaua \u0219i m-am uitat spre u\u0219\u0103.<\/p>\n
Pentru o clip\u0103, aproape c\u0103 am a\u0219teptat s\u0103 aud soneria la 8:17.<\/p>\n
Dar n-a mai sunat nimeni.<\/p>\n
\u0218i sincer?<\/p>\n
M-am bucurat.<\/p>\n
Pentru c\u0103 unele u\u0219i nu sunt f\u0103cute s\u0103 r\u0103m\u00e2n\u0103 refugii pentru totdeauna.<\/p>\n
Unele sunt f\u0103cute doar ca s\u0103 ajute pe cineva s\u0103 scape viu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
