\u2014 Dac\u0103 nu-mi spui unde e Daria, te denun\u021b la poli\u021bie.<\/p>\n
S-a \u00eentors \u00een pragul u\u0219ii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 F\u0103-o. S\u0103 vedem cine te crede.<\/p>\n
Apoi a tr\u00e2ntit u\u0219a.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas pe hol tremur\u00e2nd, cu obrazul arz\u00e2nd \u0219i gura uscat\u0103. Dincolo de u\u0219\u0103 \u00eel auzeam deschiz\u00e2nd sertare \u0219i mut\u00e2nd lucruri, de parc\u0103 ar fi c\u0103utat ceva disperat.<\/p>\n
N-am pl\u00e2ns.<\/p>\n
Pl\u00e2nsesem deja trei luni.<\/p>\n
\u00cen noaptea aceea am a\u0219teptat.<\/p>\n
La dou\u0103 diminea\u021ba, Andrei a \u00eenceput s\u0103 sfor\u0103ie. Mereu sfor\u0103ia c\u00e2nd bea bere, iar \u00een seara aceea b\u0103use patru una dup\u0103 alta, st\u00e2nd \u00een fa\u021ba televizorului stins.<\/p>\n
Am intrat \u00eencet \u00een dormitor.<\/p>\n
Trolerul lui era pe jos, l\u00e2ng\u0103 dulap. Nu avea lac\u0103t.<\/p>\n
M-am a\u0219ezat \u00een genunchi \u0219i am deschis fermoarul \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
\u00cen\u0103untru erau tricouri murdare, pantaloni plini de praf, bonuri mototolite de benzin\u0103rie, ambalaje de chipsuri \u0219i o \u0219apc\u0103 pe care nu o cuno\u0219team. Mirosea a transpira\u021bie, benzin\u0103 \u0219i p\u0103m\u00e2nt \u00eencins.<\/p>\n
Am \u00eenceput s\u0103 scot tot.<\/p>\n
Nu am g\u0103sit hainele Dariei.<\/p>\n
Nici pijamaua ei cu unicorni.<\/p>\n
Nici sandalele roz.<\/p>\n
Nici periu\u021ba mov.<\/p>\n
Nimic.<\/p>\n
Atunci am v\u0103zut compartimentul interior. Era \u00eenchis cu un fermoar mai mic. C\u00e2nd l-am deschis, ceva mi-a c\u0103zut \u00een poal\u0103.<\/p>\n
O \u0219oset\u0103 de copil.<\/p>\n
Alb\u0103, cu o floricic\u0103 galben\u0103 cusut\u0103.<\/p>\n
Era a Dariei.<\/p>\n
Am recunoscut-o pentru c\u0103 eu cususem floricica aceea dup\u0103 ce se rupsese materialul.<\/p>\n
Am dus-o la nas.<\/p>\n
Mirosea a umezeal\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u0218i a medicamente.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit c\u0103 r\u0103m\u00e2n f\u0103r\u0103 aer.<\/p>\n
Am continuat s\u0103 caut cu m\u00e2inile tremur\u00e2nd p\u00e2n\u0103 am g\u0103sit o pung\u0103 neagr\u0103 \u00eemp\u0103turit\u0103. \u00cen\u0103untru era o br\u0103\u021bar\u0103 de spital.<\/p>\n
Nu scria \u201eDaria Popescu\u201d.<\/p>\n
Scria:<\/p>\n
\u201ePacient\u0103 minor\u0103. Internare: Spital Jude\u021bean Constan\u021ba. F\u0103r\u0103 \u00eenso\u021bitor.\u201d<\/p>\n
Data era de acum dou\u0103 luni.<\/p>\n
Dou\u0103 luni.<\/p>\n
Andrei \u00eemi trimitea poze cu apusuri \u00een timp ce fiica mea intra singur\u0103 \u00eentr-un spital.<\/p>\n
Mi-am acoperit gura ca s\u0103 nu \u021bip.<\/p>\n
Sub br\u0103\u021bar\u0103 era o h\u00e2rtie \u00eemp\u0103turit\u0103, p\u0103tat\u0103 de cafea. Era o chitan\u021b\u0103 de curierat. Expeditorul era Andrei. Destinatarul era o femeie pe nume \u201eRodica V.\u201d din Timi\u0219oara.<\/p>\n
La con\u021binut scria:<\/p>\n
\u201eHaine de copil \u0219i documente.\u201d<\/p>\n
Documente.<\/p>\n
M-am ridicat cum am putut \u0219i am fugit \u00een sufragerie. Mi-am c\u0103utat telefonul. Andrei \u00eel l\u0103sase pe blatul din buc\u0103t\u0103rie, convins c\u0103 eram prea speriat\u0103 ca s\u0103-l folosesc.<\/p>\n
L-am deblocat cu m\u00e2inile tremur\u00e2nde \u0219i am sunat ultimul num\u0103r necunoscut care m\u0103 apelase cu dou\u0103 s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2ni \u00een urm\u0103. Nu r\u0103spunsesem atunci pentru c\u0103 am crezut c\u0103 e reclam\u0103.<\/p>\n
A sunat o dat\u0103.<\/p>\n
De dou\u0103 ori.<\/p>\n
De trei ori.<\/p>\n
O femeie a r\u0103spuns \u00eencet:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Doamna Ioana?<\/p>\n
Mi s-a oprit inima.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Da. Cine este?<\/p>\n
A urmat o t\u0103cere. Apoi am auzit-o suspin\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Sunt asistent\u0103 la Spitalul Jude\u021bean Constan\u021ba. Am \u00eencercat de multe ori s\u0103 dau de dumneavoastr\u0103.<\/p>\n
M-am sprijinit de chiuvet\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Unde este fiica mea?<\/p>\n
Femeia a tras aer ad\u00e2nc \u00een piept.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Fiica dumneavoastr\u0103 nu a ajuns la spital cu tat\u0103l ei.<\/p>\n
Am \u00eenchis ochii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci cu cine?<\/p>\n
Asistenta a cobor\u00e2t vocea \u0219i mai mult, ca \u0219i cum cineva putea s\u0103 o aud\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cu o femeie care a spus c\u0103 este bunica ei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Fiica mea nu mai are bunic\u0103 \u00een via\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
La cel\u0103lalt cap\u0103t al telefonului s-a f\u0103cut lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n
Apoi femeia a spus fraza care mi-a rupt via\u021ba \u00een dou\u0103:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci, doamn\u0103\u2026 trebuie s\u0103 veni\u021bi urgent, pentru c\u0103 feti\u021ba nu figura \u00een acte cu numele Daria. A fost \u00eenregistrat\u0103 cu alt nume \u0219i cineva a semnat aprobarea s\u0103 fie luat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen acel moment, u\u0219a dormitorului s-a deschis \u00een spatele meu.<\/p>\n
Andrei st\u0103tea acolo, palid, cu certificatul nostru de c\u0103s\u0103torie \u00eentr-o m\u00e2n\u0103 \u0219i pa\u0219aportul Dariei \u00een cealalt\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u0218i \u00eenainte s\u0103 pot \u00eenchide apelul, am auzit vocea feti\u021bei mele la telefon, foarte \u00eencet, spun\u00e2nd:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mami\u2026 vino s\u0103 m\u0103 iei\u2026<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit c\u0103 mi se taie picioarele.<\/p>\n
Telefonul aproape mi-a sc\u0103pat din m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Daria! Puiul meu, unde e\u0219ti?!<\/p>\n
Dar \u00eenainte s\u0103 mai aud ceva, apelul s-a \u00eentrerupt.<\/p>\n
Am ridicat privirea spre Andrei.<\/p>\n
Era alb la fa\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
Nu mai avea arogan\u021ba de mai devreme. Nu mai p\u0103rea st\u0103p\u00e2n pe situa\u021bie. Pentru prima dat\u0103 \u00een trei luni, p\u0103rea speriat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce-ai f\u0103cut? \u2014 am \u0219optit.<\/p>\n
El a \u00eenghi\u021bit \u00een sec.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ioana\u2026 ascult\u0103-m\u0103\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2014 Unde e copilul meu?!<\/p>\n
A f\u0103cut un pas spre mine.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu e ce crezi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci spune-mi ce s\u0103 cred! C\u0103 ai disp\u0103rut cu ea trei luni? C\u0103 ai internat-o sub alt nume? C\u0103 ai dat actele unei femei necunoscute?!<\/p>\n
Andrei \u0219i-a trecut m\u00e2na prin p\u0103r tremur\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Eu voiam doar s\u0103 o protejez\u2026<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit c\u0103-mi explodeaz\u0103 capul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 S-o protejezi de cine?!<\/p>\n
A t\u0103cut.<\/p>\n
\u0218i t\u0103cerea lui mi-a f\u0103cut mai mult r\u0103u dec\u00e2t orice r\u0103spuns.<\/p>\n
Apoi a spus \u00eencet:<\/p>\n
\u2014 De fratele meu.<\/p>\n
M-am uitat la el f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 \u00een\u021beleg.<\/p>\n
Fratele lui, Sorin, locuia \u00een Spania de ani buni. Venea rar \u00een \u021bar\u0103. Daria \u00eel v\u0103zuse doar de c\u00e2teva ori.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce leg\u0103tur\u0103 are Sorin?<\/p>\n
Andrei s-a pr\u0103bu\u0219it pe canapea \u0219i \u0219i-a acoperit fa\u021ba.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Acum patru luni m-a sunat. Avea datorii mari. Foarte mari. Mi-a spus c\u0103 ni\u0219te oameni \u00eel caut\u0103 \u0219i c\u0103 \u0219tiau de Daria.<\/p>\n
Am \u00eencremenit.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce oameni?<\/p>\n
\u2014 C\u0103m\u0103tari. Sorin luase bani de la cine nu trebuia.<\/p>\n
Mi s-a f\u0103cut r\u0103u.<\/p>\n
Andrei vorbea cu privirea \u00een podea, ca \u0219i cum fiecare cuv\u00e2nt \u00eel distrugea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mi-a spus c\u0103 dac\u0103 nu pl\u0103te\u0219te, o s\u0103 vin\u0103 dup\u0103 familie. Dup\u0103 noi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i tu ai crezut asta?!<\/p>\n
\u2014 I-am v\u0103zut pozele, Ioana. \u0218tiau unde merge Daria la gr\u0103dini\u021b\u0103. \u0218tiau unde lucrezi tu.<\/p>\n
Mi-am dus m\u00e2na la gur\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-o clip\u0103, totul a \u00eenceput s\u0103 capete sens.<\/p>\n
Frica lui.<\/p>\n
Drumul.<\/p>\n
Telefonul \u00eenchis.<\/p>\n
Schimbarea numelui.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci de ce n-ai mers la poli\u021bie?!<\/p>\n
Andrei a r\u00e2s amar.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 Sorin deja mersese. \u0218i dup\u0103 dou\u0103 zile l-au b\u0103tut aproape p\u00e2n\u0103 l-au omor\u00e2t.<\/p>\n
Casa p\u0103rea c\u0103 se \u00eenv\u00e2rte.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i unde este Daria acum?<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u00cen Timi\u0219oara. Cu Rodica.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cine e Rodica?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Fosta asistent\u0103 a mamei mele. Singura persoan\u0103 \u00een care aveam \u00eencredere.<\/p>\n
M-am apropiat \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci de ce n-ai spus adev\u0103rul?<\/p>\n
Ochii lui s-au umplut de lacrimi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 dac\u0103 cineva te urm\u0103rea\u2026 cu c\u00e2t \u0219tiai mai pu\u021bin, cu at\u00e2t erai mai \u00een siguran\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am izbucnit.<\/p>\n
\u2014 M-ai l\u0103sat trei luni s\u0103 cred c\u0103 fiica mea a murit!<\/p>\n
A \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103 \u0219i el.<\/p>\n
Nu-l mai v\u0103zusem niciodat\u0103 a\u0219a.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u00cen fiecare zi voiam s\u0103 m\u0103 \u00eentorc\u2026 dar mi-era fric\u0103\u2026 Ioana, mi-era fric\u0103 s\u0103 nu-i fac r\u0103u fetei noastre.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas t\u0103cu\u021bi c\u00e2teva secunde.<\/p>\n
Apoi am spus:<\/p>\n
\u2014 M\u00e2ine mergem dup\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n
Andrei a ridicat capul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu putem.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ba putem.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Oamenii \u0103ia\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu-mi mai pas\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u0218i chiar nu-mi mai p\u0103sa.<\/p>\n
Trei luni tr\u0103isem ca o moart\u0103.<\/p>\n
Nu mai aveam nimic de pierdut.<\/p>\n
\u00cen diminea\u021ba urm\u0103toare am plecat spre Timi\u0219oara.<\/p>\n
N-am vorbit aproape deloc pe drum.<\/p>\n
Eu m\u0103 uitam continuu la pozele Dariei din telefon.<\/p>\n
Ea \u00een parc.<\/p>\n
Ea dormind cu iepura\u0219ul \u00een bra\u021be.<\/p>\n
Ea r\u00e2z\u00e2nd cu \u00eenghe\u021bat\u0103 pe toat\u0103 fa\u021ba.<\/p>\n
Iar eu m\u0103 g\u00e2ndeam c\u0103 un copil de patru ani nu ar trebui s\u0103 \u0219tie ce \u00eenseamn\u0103 frica.<\/p>\n
Am ajuns seara, \u00eentr-un cartier lini\u0219tit de la marginea ora\u0219ului.<\/p>\n
Rodica locuia \u00eentr-o cas\u0103 mic\u0103, cu flori la geam \u0219i o curte \u00eengrijit\u0103.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd a deschis u\u0219a \u0219i m-a v\u0103zut, a \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Slav\u0103 Domnului c\u0103 a\u021bi venit\u2026<\/p>\n
N-am mai a\u0219teptat.<\/p>\n
Am intrat alerg\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
\u0218i acolo, pe o canapea mic\u0103, cu iepura\u0219ul de plu\u0219 str\u00e2ns la piept, st\u0103tea Daria.<\/p>\n
Pentru o secund\u0103, doar ne-am privit.<\/p>\n
Apoi a \u021bipat:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mami!<\/p>\n
A fugit spre mine \u0219i am c\u0103zut am\u00e2ndou\u0103 \u00een genunchi pe covor.<\/p>\n
O \u021bineam at\u00e2t de str\u00e2ns \u00eenc\u00e2t tremura.<\/p>\n
\u00cei sim\u021beam mirosul de \u0219ampon de copii \u0219i pielea cald\u0103 pe obraji.<\/p>\n
\u0218i atunci am \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng cu adev\u0103rat.<\/p>\n
Nu de fric\u0103.<\/p>\n
Nu de furie.<\/p>\n
Ci de u\u0219urare.<\/p>\n
\u00cen noaptea aceea am dormit toate trei \u00een acela\u0219i pat.<\/p>\n
Eu, Daria \u0219i iepura\u0219ul ei de plu\u0219 \u00eentre noi.<\/p>\n
Iar \u00eenainte s\u0103 adoarm\u0103, feti\u021ba mea m-a \u00eentrebat \u00eencet:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mami\u2026 acum pot s\u0103 merg acas\u0103?<\/p>\n
Am s\u0103rutat-o pe frunte \u0219i am \u00eenchis ochii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Da, iubirea mea. Acum mergem acas\u0103.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\u2014 Dac\u0103 nu-mi spui unde e Daria, te denun\u021b la poli\u021bie. S-a \u00eentors \u00een pragul u\u0219ii. \u2014 F\u0103-o. S\u0103 vedem cine te crede. Apoi a tr\u00e2ntit u\u0219a. Am r\u0103mas pe hol tremur\u00e2nd, cu obrazul arz\u00e2nd \u0219i gura uscat\u0103. Dincolo de u\u0219\u0103 \u00eel auzeam deschiz\u00e2nd sertare \u0219i mut\u00e2nd lucruri, de parc\u0103 ar fi c\u0103utat ceva disperat.
