Duminic\u0103 diminea\u021b\u0103, Valeria a ap\u0103rut cu un z\u00e2mbet larg \u0219i cu cei doi copii ai ei pe bancheta din spate.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce frumos c\u0103 facem asta \u00eempreun\u0103! a spus ea.<\/p>\n
Dac\u0103 nu a\u0219 fi \u0219tiut adev\u0103rul, poate a\u0219 fi crezut-o.<\/p>\n
\u0218tefan \u0219i cu mine ne-am urcat \u00een ma\u0219ina lor. Reportofonul era ascuns \u00een buzunarul interior al gecii lui.<\/p>\n
Drumul a durat aproape dou\u0103 ore.<\/p>\n
Pe m\u0103sur\u0103 ce urcam prin mun\u021bi, sim\u021beam cum mi se str\u00e2nge stomacul.<\/p>\n
Valeria vorbea despre vreme, despre copii \u0219i despre planuri de vacan\u021b\u0103. Era at\u00e2t de calm\u0103, \u00eenc\u00e2t p\u0103rea imposibil s\u0103 fie aceea\u0219i persoan\u0103 despre care aflasem cu doar c\u00e2teva zile \u00eenainte.<\/p>\n
Ajun\u0219i la punctul de belvedere, copiii au r\u0103mas \u00eentr-o zon\u0103 de picnic \u00eempreun\u0103 cu Marius.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Eu \u00eei supraveghez \u2014 a spus el.<\/p>\n
Valeria ne-a f\u0103cut semn s\u0103 o urm\u0103m pe o potec\u0103 mai \u00eengust\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Priveli\u0219tea adev\u0103rat\u0103 este pu\u021bin mai sus.<\/p>\n
Am mers c\u00e2teva minute p\u00e2n\u0103 la marginea unei st\u00e2nci.<\/p>\n
\u00cen fa\u021ba noastr\u0103 se deschidea o pr\u0103pastie ad\u00e2nc\u0103.<\/p>\n
V\u00e2ntul b\u0103tea puternic.<\/p>\n
Valeria s-a apropiat de margine \u0219i a z\u00e2mbit.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218ti\u021bi ceva? Mereu mi-a pl\u0103cut locul \u0103sta.<\/p>\n
\u0218tefan a ap\u0103sat discret butonul reportofonului.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De ce ne-ai adus aici? a \u00eentrebat el.<\/p>\n
Valeria s-a \u00eentors spre noi.<\/p>\n
Z\u00e2mbetul \u00eei disp\u0103ruse.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 sunte\u021bi \u00eenc\u0103p\u0103\u021b\u00e2na\u021bi.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit un fior rece.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu \u00een\u021beleg.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ba \u00een\u021belegi foarte bine, mam\u0103.<\/p>\n
Ochii ei s-au \u00eengustat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 A\u021bi g\u0103sit documentele.<\/p>\n
A\u0219adar \u0219tia.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Valeria… a \u00eenceput \u0218tefan.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dou\u0103zeci de ani am reparat gre\u0219eala voastr\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Gre\u0219eala noastr\u0103?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Da. Totul a fost despre Drago\u0219. Mereu Drago\u0219. \u0218coala lui. Visurile lui. Planurile lui.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas f\u0103r\u0103 cuvinte.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu este adev\u0103rat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ba da. \u0218i \u00een noaptea aceea a vrut s\u0103 m\u0103 distrug\u0103.<\/p>\n
Vocea \u00eei tremura.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Descoperise c\u0103 luasem bani. Voia s\u0103 v\u0103 spun\u0103 tot. Spunea c\u0103 nu merit \u00eencrederea voastr\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u0218tefan a \u00eenchis ochii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 L-ai omor\u00e2t.<\/p>\n
\u2014 A fost un impuls! a \u021bipat ea. Exact cum i-am spus tat\u0103lui.<\/p>\n
Lini\u0219tea care a urmat a fost cumplit\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 dou\u0103zeci de ani, m\u0103rturisirea era \u00eenregistrat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dar Valeria nu terminase.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Acum voi a\u021bi aflat adev\u0103rul. \u0218i nu pot risca s\u0103 pierd tot.<\/p>\n
A f\u0103cut un pas spre noi.<\/p>\n
Apoi \u00eenc\u0103 unul.<\/p>\n
Am \u00een\u021beles ce urma.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Valeria, opre\u0219te-te! am strigat.<\/p>\n
Dar era prea t\u00e2rziu.<\/p>\n
Ne-a \u00eempins.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum p\u0103m\u00e2ntul dispare de sub picioare.<\/p>\n
C\u0103derea a fost scurt\u0103, dar suficient\u0103.<\/p>\n
Din fericire, nu am ajuns \u00een fundul pr\u0103pastiei. Ne-am izbit de o por\u021biune abrupt\u0103 acoperit\u0103 cu tufi\u0219uri \u0219i st\u00e2nci.<\/p>\n
Durerea mi-a explodat \u00een um\u0103r.<\/p>\n
Atunci am auzit \u0219oapta ei:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dac\u0103 v\u0103 mi\u0219ca\u021bi, v\u0103 \u00eemping din nou.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas nemi\u0219cat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva minute, pa\u0219ii ei s-au \u00eendep\u0103rtat.<\/p>\n
Mai t\u00e2rziu am aflat c\u0103 s-a \u00eentors la Marius \u0219i le-a spus copiilor c\u0103 am vrut s\u0103 facem o plimbare singuri.<\/p>\n
Dar Valeria nu \u0219tia un lucru.<\/p>\n
\u00cenainte s\u0103 urc\u0103m pe munte, \u0218tefan \u00eei trimisese Luciei, o veche prieten\u0103 de familie \u0219i avocat, un mesaj cu loca\u021bia exact\u0103 \u0219i cu instruc\u021biuni clare s\u0103 alerteze autorit\u0103\u021bile dac\u0103 nu reveneam p\u00e2n\u0103 la o anumit\u0103 or\u0103.<\/p>\n
La mai pu\u021bin de o or\u0103 dup\u0103 c\u0103dere, echipele Salvamont \u0219i poli\u021bia au \u00eenceput c\u0103ut\u0103rile.<\/p>\n
Ne-au g\u0103sit \u00eenainte de l\u0103sarea \u00eentunericului.<\/p>\n
Am supravie\u021buit.<\/p>\n
Valeria \u0219i Marius au fost re\u021binu\u021bi \u00een aceea\u0219i sear\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cenregistrarea, documentele \u0219i m\u0103rturisirea au fost suficiente pentru redeschiderea dosarului lui Drago\u0219.<\/p>\n
Procesul a durat aproape un an.<\/p>\n
A fost dureros.<\/p>\n
Dar pentru prima dat\u0103 \u00een dou\u0103zeci de ani, adev\u0103rul a ie\u0219it la lumin\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen ziua \u00een care s-a pronun\u021bat sentin\u021ba, eu \u0219i \u0218tefan am mers la morm\u00e2ntul lui Drago\u0219.<\/p>\n
Am dus flori \u0219i am stat mult timp \u00een lini\u0219te.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Iart\u0103-m\u0103 c\u0103 nu te-am ap\u0103rat atunci \u2014 a \u0219optit \u0218tefan.<\/p>\n
L-am luat de m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
V\u00e2ntul mi\u0219ca iarba din jurul crucii.<\/p>\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 dou\u0103 decenii, povara secretului disp\u0103ruse.<\/p>\n
Ne pierduser\u0103m fiul.<\/p>\n
Ne pierduser\u0103m \u0219i fiica \u00een felul ei.<\/p>\n
Dar adev\u0103rul, oric\u00e2t de t\u00e2rziu ar fi venit, ne oferise \u00een sf\u00e2r\u0219it ceea ce nu mai credeam posibil:<\/p>\n
