C\u00e2nd Toma a intrat \u00een birou, genunchii \u00eei tremurau.<\/p>\n
Regina st\u0103tea la cap\u0103tul unei mese lungi din lemn masiv.<\/p>\n
\u00cen fa\u021ba ei se afla dosarul lui.<\/p>\n
\u0218i un plic gros.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u00cenchide u\u0219a, domnule Herescu.<\/p>\n
El a f\u0103cut \u00eentocmai.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Doamn\u0103 director, \u00eemi pare r\u0103u pentru asear\u0103. Nu a fost inten\u021bionat.<\/p>\n
Regina l-a privit c\u00e2teva secunde.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218tiu.<\/p>\n
Apoi a \u00eempins plicul spre el.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Deschide\u021bi-l.<\/p>\n
Toma a ezitat.<\/p>\n
\u00cen\u0103untru erau 85.000 de lei.<\/p>\n
A r\u0103mas f\u0103r\u0103 aer.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cred c\u0103 este o gre\u0219eal\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu este.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Eu nu pot accepta…<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu sunt bani oferi\u021bi din mil\u0103.<\/p>\n
Vocea ei devenise ferm\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Sunt plata pentru discre\u021bie \u0219i pentru o slujb\u0103.<\/p>\n
Toma a ridicat privirea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu \u00een\u021beleg.<\/p>\n
Regina s-a ridicat cu greu.<\/p>\n
Se vedea c\u0103 fiecare mi\u0219care o durea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Acum \u0219ase luni am avut un accident. Toat\u0103 lumea crede c\u0103 am sc\u0103pat aproape nev\u0103t\u0103mat\u0103.<\/p>\n
A z\u00e2mbit amar.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Adev\u0103rul este c\u0103 abia m\u0103 pot ridica din pat uneori.<\/p>\n
Ea s-a apropiat de fereastr\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dac\u0103 investitorii afl\u0103 c\u00e2t de grav\u0103 este starea mea, ac\u021biunile companiei vor c\u0103dea. Iar unii oameni din propria mea familie a\u0219teapt\u0103 exact asta.<\/p>\n
Toma a r\u0103mas t\u0103cut.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Asear\u0103 ai v\u0103zut ceea ce nimeni nu trebuia s\u0103 vad\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i nu voi spune nim\u0103nui.<\/p>\n
Regina a dat din cap.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Tocmai de aceea te-am chemat.<\/p>\n
A deschis un alt dosar.<\/p>\n
Con\u021binea rapoarte financiare \u0219i fotografii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Fratele meu \u00eencearc\u0103 s\u0103 preia controlul companiei. Dac\u0103 reu\u0219e\u0219te s\u0103 demonstreze c\u0103 nu mai sunt capabil\u0103 s\u0103 conduc, m\u0103 va \u00eenl\u0103tura.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i cu ce v\u0103 pot ajuta eu?<\/p>\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103, Regina a z\u00e2mbit sincer.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Am nevoie de cineva \u00een care nu are nimeni motive s\u0103 suspecteze c\u0103 am \u00eencredere.<\/p>\n
\u00cen urm\u0103toarele minute i-a explicat planul.<\/p>\n
Nu era ilegal.<\/p>\n
Nu era periculos.<\/p>\n
Dar necesita loialitate.<\/p>\n
Toma urma s\u0103 devin\u0103 asistent logistic \u00een afara programului de cur\u0103\u021benie.<\/p>\n
S\u0103 transporte documente.<\/p>\n
S\u0103 livreze dosare \u00eentre avoca\u021bi \u0219i consultan\u021bi.<\/p>\n
S\u0103 observe lucruri pe care al\u021bii nu le observau.<\/p>\n
Iar pentru asta urma s\u0103 primeasc\u0103 un salariu triplu.<\/p>\n
Plus asigurare medical\u0103 complet\u0103 pentru Camelia.<\/p>\n
Toma a sim\u021bit c\u0103 i se umezesec ochii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De ce eu?<\/p>\n
Regina a r\u0103spuns f\u0103r\u0103 ezitare:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 ai avut ocazia s\u0103 m\u0103 distrugi \u0219i nu ai f\u0103cut-o.<\/p>\n
El a privit din nou plicul.<\/p>\n
Banii aceia \u00eensemnau tratamente.<\/p>\n
Chiria pl\u0103tit\u0103.<\/p>\n
M\u00e2ncare.<\/p>\n
Lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n
Dar mai ales o \u0219ans\u0103 pentru fiica lui.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Accept.<\/p>\n
\u00cen lunile care au urmat, via\u021ba lui s-a schimbat.<\/p>\n
Camelia a \u00eenceput s\u0103 primeasc\u0103 tratamentul de care avea nevoie.<\/p>\n
Crizele de astm s-au r\u0103rit.<\/p>\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103, feti\u021ba putea alerga \u00een parc f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 se opreasc\u0103 dup\u0103 c\u00e2\u021biva pa\u0219i.<\/p>\n
\u00cen acela\u0219i timp, Toma a descoperit c\u00e2t de singur\u0103 era Regina.<\/p>\n
Toat\u0103 lumea \u00eei respecta func\u021bia.<\/p>\n
Pu\u021bini o respectau ca om.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-o sear\u0103, dup\u0103 o \u0219edin\u021b\u0103 lung\u0103, ea l-a \u00eentrebat:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce vrea fiica ta s\u0103 devin\u0103 c\u00e2nd va cre\u0219te?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Medic veterinar.<\/p>\n
Regina a z\u00e2mbit.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci s\u0103 ne asigur\u0103m c\u0103 va avea \u0219ansa s\u0103 aleag\u0103.<\/p>\n
Un an mai t\u00e2rziu, \u00eencercarea fratelui ei de a prelua compania a e\u0219uat.<\/p>\n
Documentele \u0219i probele str\u00e2nse la timp au \u00eempiedicat o lovitur\u0103 intern\u0103 care ar fi afectat mii de angaja\u021bi.<\/p>\n
\u00cen aceea\u0219i s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2n\u0103, Regina l-a chemat din nou \u00een biroul ei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mai \u021bii minte noaptea \u00een care ai deschis din gre\u0219eal\u0103 u\u0219a?<\/p>\n
Toma a r\u00e2s.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cum a\u0219 putea s-o uit?<\/p>\n
Ea a \u00eentins o map\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Este contractul t\u0103u nou.<\/p>\n
Toma a deschis-o.<\/p>\n
Pozi\u021bie permanent\u0103.<\/p>\n
Salariu excelent.<\/p>\n
Beneficii complete.<\/p>\n
Program stabil.<\/p>\n
A r\u0103mas f\u0103r\u0103 cuvinte.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De ce face\u021bi toate astea?<\/p>\n
Regina a privit spre ora\u0219ul luminat de dincolo de geam.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 oamenii cred c\u0103 puterea \u00eenseamn\u0103 s\u0103 g\u0103se\u0219ti persoane utile.<\/p>\n
Apoi s-a uitat la el.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Eu cred c\u0103 \u00eenseamn\u0103 s\u0103 g\u0103se\u0219ti oameni de caracter \u0219i s\u0103 nu-i pierzi.<\/p>\n
\u00cen acea sear\u0103, c\u00e2nd a ajuns acas\u0103, Camelia a alergat spre el \u0219i i-a s\u0103rit \u00een bra\u021be.<\/p>\n
Respira f\u0103r\u0103 dificultate.<\/p>\n
R\u00e2dea.<\/p>\n
Era s\u0103n\u0103toas\u0103.<\/p>\n
Iar Toma a \u00een\u021beles c\u0103, uneori, o u\u0219\u0103 deschis\u0103 din gre\u0219eal\u0103 poate deveni \u00eenceputul celei mai importante \u0219anse din via\u021ba ta.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
