Ie\u0219ise \u00een pijama, cu p\u0103rul v\u00e2lvoi, \u0219i cu fa\u021ba ro\u0219ie de furie. \u021aipa la nimeni anume, scutur\u00e2nd ceva \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103. Mi-am tras halatul \u0219i am ie\u0219it calm\u0103 afar\u0103, pref\u0103c\u00e2ndu-m\u0103 surprins\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Totul e \u00een regul\u0103, Linda?<\/p>\n
S-a \u00eentors spre mine, tremur\u00e2nd. \u021ainea \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103 o cutie de carton\u2026 sau, mai exact, ceea ce mai r\u0103m\u0103sese din ea. Din interior ie\u0219ea un fum sub\u021bire, iar pe obraji \u00eei curgeau lacrimi amestecate cu spume de nervi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ai pus ceva \u00een pachetul \u0103sta! A explodat! Uite ce mi-ai f\u0103cut!<\/p>\n
Am z\u00e2mbit calm.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Explodat? Ah, da… acel pachet era pentru tata. Avea ni\u0219te spray-uri cu sclipici cu presiune. Am uitat s\u0103 men\u021bionez c\u0103, dac\u0103 sunt agitate, pot izbucni… Dar, desigur, era etichetat cu numele meu. \u0218tii tu, pentru mine.<\/p>\n
Linda m-a privit de parc\u0103 eram Satana \u00een persoan\u0103. Avea pe fa\u021b\u0103 \u0219i pe piept sclipici ro\u0219u \u0219i verde, lipit de halatul ei alb ca laptele, iar din p\u0103r at\u00e2rnau fundi\u021be aurii. P\u0103rea mai degrab\u0103 decorul viu al unui brad nebun dec\u00e2t o femeie \u00een pragul colapsului.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Asta e r\u0103zbunare! Te dau \u00een judecat\u0103!<\/p>\n
Mi-am \u00eencruci\u0219at bra\u021bele \u0219i i-am r\u0103spuns:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pentru ce? Pentru c\u0103 ai furat ceva care nu-\u021bi apar\u021binea \u0219i \u021bi-ai luat por\u021bia de Cr\u0103ciun? Linda, dac\u0103 vrei, putem merge \u00eempreun\u0103 la poli\u021bie. S\u0103 le explic\u0103m cum pachetele mele \u201eajungeau din gre\u0219eal\u0103\u201d la tine, deschise.<\/p>\n
A r\u0103mas blocat\u0103. A t\u0103cut o clip\u0103, apoi a \u021bipat din nou \u0219i a tr\u00e2ntit u\u0219a casei ei.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas \u00een pragul casei mele, privind cerul gri de iarn\u0103. Z\u0103pada \u00eencepuse s\u0103 cad\u0103 lin. Mirosea a Cr\u0103ciun, a cozonaci \u0219i a scor\u021bi\u0219oar\u0103.<\/p>\n
Peste c\u00e2teva ore, to\u021bi vecinii vorbeau despre incident. Una dintre vecinele mai \u00een v\u00e2rst\u0103, doamna Stanca, mi-a adus o tav\u0103 cu colaci \u00eempleti\u021bi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Draga mea, ai avut curaj. De ani de zile se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103 asta \u00een cartier. Nimeni n-a avut curajul s\u0103-i r\u0103spund\u0103 Lindei. Dar tu\u2026 tu i-ai dat o lec\u021bie ca \u00een pove\u0219tile de iarn\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am mul\u021bumit \u0219i am primit colacii. \u00cen noaptea aceea, \u00een casa mea s-a sim\u021bit pentru prima oar\u0103 cu adev\u0103rat Cr\u0103ciunul. Mama a primit \u00een cele din urm\u0103 un glob special, handmade, pictat de mine. Nu era edi\u021bie limitat\u0103, dar era plin de suflet.<\/p>\n
\u0218i Linda?<\/p>\n
A doua zi, am v\u0103zut-o sp\u0103l\u00e2ndu-\u0219i aleea cu furtunul, \u00eencerc\u00e2nd s\u0103 scape de sclipiciul ce p\u0103rea c\u0103 intrase \u0219i \u00een sufletul casei ei. De-atunci, nu mi-a mai atins niciun colet. Ba chiar, din c\u00e2nd \u00een c\u00e2nd, \u00eemi las\u0103 discret o scrisoare \u00een cutie: \u201eScuze. Linda.\u201d<\/p>\n
Uneori, cele mai bune lec\u021bii se dau cu pu\u021bin sclipici \u0219i o doz\u0103 de r\u0103bdare rom\u00e2neasc\u0103.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
