Paul oft\u0103 ad\u00e2nc.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u00cen urm\u0103 cu pu\u021bin timp \u00eenainte s\u0103 moar\u0103, tat\u0103l t\u0103u m-a rugat ceva.<\/p>\n
L-am privit f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 spun nimic.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218tia c\u0103 boala lui avansa mai repede dec\u00e2t le spunea tuturor. \u00centr-o zi m-a chemat \u00een gr\u0103din\u0103 \u0219i mi-a spus: \u201eDac\u0103 eu nu voi mai fi, promite-mi c\u0103 n-o vei l\u0103sa pe Maria s\u0103 uite cum e s\u0103 z\u00e2mbeasc\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit cum mi se str\u00e2nge g\u00e2tul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu mi-a spus niciodat\u0103 asta.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu voia s\u0103 te \u00eempov\u0103reze. Mi-a spus c\u0103 tu vei avea propria familie \u0219i propriile griji. Voia doar ca cineva s\u0103 treac\u0103 pe la ea din c\u00e2nd \u00een c\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
Paul z\u00e2mbi cu triste\u021be.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dar dup\u0103 ce a murit, mi-am dat seama c\u0103 simpla vizit\u0103 nu era suficient\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218i atunci ai \u00eenceput s\u0103 o sco\u021bi la dans?<\/p>\n
\u00cencuviin\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u021ai-l aminte\u0219ti pe tat\u0103l t\u0103u dans\u00e2nd cu ea la serb\u0103rile din cartier?<\/p>\n
Am z\u00e2mbit printre lacrimi.<\/p>\n
Cum a\u0219 fi putut uita?<\/p>\n
\u00cen fiecare var\u0103, la zilele ora\u0219ului, tata o lua de m\u00e2n\u0103 pe mama \u0219i dansau indiferent ce melodie se auzea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mi-a povestit c\u0103 joia era ziua lor preferat\u0103. \u00cen fiecare joi ie\u0219eau undeva \u00eempreun\u0103, chiar dac\u0103 era doar o plimbare \u0219i o \u00eenghe\u021bat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas t\u0103cut\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Prima dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd am invitat-o la dans, a refuzat. A doua oar\u0103 la fel. A treia oar\u0103 mi-a spus c\u0103 nu mai \u0219tie s\u0103 danseze.<\/p>\n
Paul r\u00e2se \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dup\u0103 primul c\u00e2ntec \u0219i-a amintit fiecare pas.<\/p>\n
Mi-am \u0219ters ochii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De ce nu ai vrut s\u0103-mi spune\u021bi?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 nu era despre mine \u0219i nici despre ea.<\/p>\n
F\u0103cu o pauz\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Era despre promisiunea f\u0103cut\u0103 tat\u0103lui t\u0103u.<\/p>\n
\u00cen joiua urm\u0103toare, mama m-a sunat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ai timp \u00een seara asta?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Da.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci vino \u0219i tu.<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas surprins\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Credeam c\u0103 vrei s\u0103 r\u0103m\u00e2n\u0103 doar \u00eentre voi.<\/p>\n
Ea z\u00e2mbi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 P\u00e2n\u0103 acum da. Dar cred c\u0103 a venit timpul s\u0103 afli de ce mergeam acolo.<\/p>\n
\u00cen parc c\u00e2nta o forma\u021bie de pensionari pasiona\u021bi de muzic\u0103.<\/p>\n
Pe alee, zeci de cupluri dansau.<\/p>\n
Paul s-a apropiat de mama \u0219i i-a \u00eentins m\u00e2na.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u00cemi acorda\u021bi acest dans?<\/p>\n
Ea a acceptat r\u00e2z\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
I-am privit c\u00e2teva minute.<\/p>\n
Apoi o femeie \u00een v\u00e2rst\u0103 s-a apropiat de mine.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Sunte\u021bi fiica Mariei?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Da.<\/p>\n
\u2014 So\u021bul ei dansa minunat. Ne bucur\u0103m c\u0103 cineva a ajutat-o s\u0103 nu renun\u021be la ceea ce iubea cel mai mult.<\/p>\n
\u00cen acel moment am \u00een\u021beles c\u0103 nu era vorba despre o poveste de dragoste.<\/p>\n
Era vorba despre loialitate.<\/p>\n
Despre prietenie.<\/p>\n
\u0218i despre o promisiune f\u0103cut\u0103 unui om aflat la sf\u00e2r\u0219itul vie\u021bii.<\/p>\n
\u00cen fiecare joi, de atunci \u00eenainte, am \u00eenceput s\u0103 merg \u0219i eu \u00een parc.<\/p>\n
Uneori dansam.<\/p>\n
Alteori doar priveam.<\/p>\n
Dar de fiecare dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd o vedeam pe mama z\u00e2mbind \u0219i \u00eenv\u00e2rtindu-se pe muzic\u0103, \u00eemi aminteam de vorbele pe care tata mi le spusese c\u00e2nd eram copil:<\/p>\n
\u201eIubirea adev\u0103rat\u0103 nu dispare atunci c\u00e2nd cineva pleac\u0103. Ea continu\u0103 s\u0103 tr\u0103iasc\u0103 prin oamenii care aleg s\u0103 aib\u0103 grij\u0103 unii de al\u021bii.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u0218i am \u00een\u021beles c\u0103 Paul nu \u00eencerca s\u0103-i ia locul tat\u0103lui meu.<\/p>\n
\u00cel ajuta doar s\u0103-\u0219i \u021bin\u0103 ultima promisiune.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
