\u00cen ziua aceea, Maia venise la ad\u0103post \u00eempreun\u0103 cu mama ei, Andreea.<\/p>\n
Feti\u021ba avea \u0219apte ani \u0219i \u00ee\u0219i dorise s\u0103 adopte un c\u00e2ine de ziua ei. Trecuser\u0103 prin fa\u021ba mai multor \u021barcuri \u00eenainte s\u0103 ajung\u0103 la Bruno.<\/p>\n
Dar \u00een clipa \u00een care Maia v\u0103zuse p\u0103pu\u0219a, se oprise.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Mam\u0103\u2026 c\u00e2inele acela are p\u0103pu\u0219a mea.<\/p>\n
Am crezut c\u0103 era o coinciden\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ai avut una asem\u0103n\u0103toare? am \u00eentrebat-o.<\/p>\n
Feti\u021ba cl\u0103tin\u0103 din cap.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu. Este a mea.<\/p>\n
Andreea p\u0103li.<\/p>\n
Se apropie \u00eencet de gratii \u0219i privi p\u0103pu\u0219a de pe podea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Maia…<\/p>\n
\u2014 Uite rochi\u021ba, mam\u0103. Tu ai cusut-o c\u00e2nd s-a rupt.<\/p>\n
Atunci am observat c\u0103 m\u00e2inile Andreei tremurau.<\/p>\n
Bruno r\u0103m\u0103sese \u00een fa\u021ba feti\u021bei.<\/p>\n
Nu l\u0103tra.<\/p>\n
Nu d\u0103dea din coad\u0103.<\/p>\n
Doar o privea.<\/p>\n
Maia \u00eengenunche l\u00e2ng\u0103 gratii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ro\u0219covanule?<\/p>\n
C\u00e2inele scoase un sunet at\u00e2t de slab, \u00eenc\u00e2t la \u00eenceput am crezut c\u0103 mi s-a p\u0103rut.<\/p>\n
Andreea \u00ee\u0219i acoperi gura.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dumnezeule…<\/p>\n
Bruno \u00eencepu s\u0103 tremure.<\/p>\n
Maia \u00ee\u0219i strecur\u0103 degetele printre gratii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ro\u0219covanule, eu sunt.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2inele se apropie \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
\u00cei mirosi m\u00e2na.<\/p>\n
\u0218i atunci tot corpul lui p\u0103ru s\u0103 cedeze.<\/p>\n
Se lipi de gratii, scheun\u00e2nd, \u00een timp ce coada \u00eencepu s\u0103-i loveasc\u0103 podeaua.<\/p>\n
\u00cen nou\u0103 ani de munc\u0103 la ad\u0103post v\u0103zusem multe revederi.<\/p>\n
Dar niciodat\u0103 una \u00een care un animal p\u0103rea s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103 cu tot corpul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u00cel cunoa\u0219te\u021bi? am \u00eentrebat.<\/p>\n
Andreea izbucni \u00een lacrimi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 A fost c\u00e2inele nostru.<\/p>\n
Mi-a spus povestea chiar acolo, pe coridor.<\/p>\n
Cu doi ani \u00eenainte, ea, Maia \u0219i so\u021bul ei, Radu, locuiser\u0103 \u00eentr-o comun\u0103 aflat\u0103 la aproximativ patruzeci de kilometri de Bra\u0219ov.<\/p>\n
Ro\u0219covan fusese c\u00e2inele Maiei de c\u00e2nd ea avea trei ani.<\/p>\n
Dormea l\u00e2ng\u0103 patul ei.<\/p>\n
O a\u0219tepta la poart\u0103.<\/p>\n
Iar p\u0103pu\u0219a fusese juc\u0103ria preferat\u0103 a feti\u021bei.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-o sear\u0103 de toamn\u0103, familia plecase cu ma\u0219ina spre Bra\u0219ov.<\/p>\n
Ploua puternic.<\/p>\n
La o curb\u0103, Radu pierduse controlul.<\/p>\n
Ma\u0219ina ie\u0219ise de pe \u0219osea.<\/p>\n
Andreea \u00ee\u0219i amintea doar zgomotul metalului \u0219i apoi sirenele.<\/p>\n
Radu murise \u00eenainte s\u0103 ajung\u0103 ambulan\u021ba.<\/p>\n
Ea fusese internat\u0103 aproape trei s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2ni.<\/p>\n
Maia suferise mai multe fracturi, dar supravie\u021buise.<\/p>\n
Ro\u0219covan fusese \u00een ma\u0219in\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 accident, disp\u0103ruse.<\/p>\n
\u2014 L-am c\u0103utat luni \u00eentregi, spuse Andreea. Am pus anun\u021buri peste tot. Am sunat la ad\u0103posturi. Am mers prin sate. Nimeni nu-l v\u0103zuse.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dar p\u0103pu\u0219a? am \u00eentrebat.<\/p>\n
Andreea se uit\u0103 spre ea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Era \u00een ma\u0219in\u0103 cu Maia.<\/p>\n
Am sim\u021bit un fior.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci cum a ajuns la el?<\/p>\n
Maia r\u0103spunse \u00eenaintea mamei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ro\u0219covan mi-o aducea mereu c\u00e2nd pl\u00e2ngeam.<\/p>\n
Am \u00een\u021beles.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 accident, c\u00e2inele probabil g\u0103sise p\u0103pu\u0219a printre lucrurile \u00eempr\u0103\u0219tiate \u0219i o luase.<\/p>\n
Singurul obiect care mai purta mirosul copilului lui.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Unde s-a produs accidentul? am \u00eentrebat.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd Andreea mi-a spus locul, am r\u0103mas f\u0103r\u0103 cuvinte.<\/p>\n
Era la c\u00e2\u021biva kilometri de pasajul unde fusese g\u0103sit Bruno.<\/p>\n
Probabil supravie\u021buise accidentului, fugise speriat \u0219i apoi \u00eencercase s\u0103 se \u00eentoarc\u0103.<\/p>\n
Poate zile \u00eentregi.<\/p>\n
Poate s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2ni.<\/p>\n
Dar ceva nu se potrivea.<\/p>\n
Cicatricea.<\/p>\n
Am chemat medicul veterinar al ad\u0103postului, doctorul Munteanu.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd Andreea a v\u0103zut semnul \u00een form\u0103 de semilun\u0103 de pe laba c\u00e2inelui, a \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103 din nou.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u0218tiu cicatricea asta.<\/p>\n
Ne-a povestit c\u0103, atunci c\u00e2nd Maia avea patru ani, c\u0103zuse o bucat\u0103 de tabl\u0103 dintr-un \u0219opron. Ro\u0219covan s\u0103rise \u00eentre copil \u0219i tabl\u0103.<\/p>\n
Fusese t\u0103iat la laba din fa\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
Cicatricea r\u0103m\u0103sese.<\/p>\n
Nu mai exista nicio \u00eendoial\u0103.<\/p>\n
Bruno era Ro\u0219covan.<\/p>\n
Dar mai r\u0103m\u00e2nea o \u00eentrebare.<\/p>\n
De ce nu fusese g\u0103sit?<\/p>\n
\u00cen dosarul lui aveam notat locul exact \u00een care fusese recuperat. Am comparat data accidentului cu estimarea medicului veterinar privind perioada \u00een care c\u00e2inele tr\u0103ise pe str\u0103zi.<\/p>\n
Era posibil s\u0103 fi petrecut aproape patru luni \u00eencerc\u00e2nd s\u0103 se \u00eentoarc\u0103 \u00een zona accidentului.<\/p>\n
Patru luni.<\/p>\n
Cu p\u0103pu\u0219a Maiei \u00een gur\u0103.<\/p>\n
Apoi r\u0103m\u0103sese sub acel pasaj.<\/p>\n
Poate pentru c\u0103 de acolo se auzeau ma\u0219inile.<\/p>\n
Poate pentru c\u0103 \u00eenc\u0103 a\u0219tepta.<\/p>\n
Am deschis \u021barcul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Maia, stai l\u00e2ng\u0103 mama ta \u0219i las\u0103-l pe el s\u0103 decid\u0103.<\/p>\n
Feti\u021ba se a\u0219ez\u0103 pe podea.<\/p>\n
Bruno ie\u0219i \u00eencet.<\/p>\n
Se opri la doi metri de ea.<\/p>\n
Maia nu \u00eencerc\u0103 s\u0103-l ating\u0103.<\/p>\n
Doar spuse:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Am venit, Ro\u0219covanule.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2inele f\u0103cu un pas.<\/p>\n
Apoi \u00eenc\u0103 unul.<\/p>\n
\u0218i \u00eenc\u0103 unul.<\/p>\n
Dup\u0103 care alerg\u0103.<\/p>\n
Se arunc\u0103 direct \u00een bra\u021bele ei.<\/p>\n
Maia c\u0103zu pe spate r\u00e2z\u00e2nd \u0219i pl\u00e2ng\u00e2nd, iar Bruno \u00eei lingea obrajii, p\u0103rul, m\u00e2inile.<\/p>\n
Andreea se a\u0219ez\u0103 l\u00e2ng\u0103 ei \u0219i \u00eei cuprinse pe am\u00e2ndoi.<\/p>\n
Iar eu m-am \u00eentors cu spatele pentru c\u00e2teva secunde.<\/p>\n
Nu voiam s\u0103 m\u0103 vad\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
Procedura de verificare a durat c\u00e2teva zile. Am comparat fotografii vechi, documente veterinare \u0219i semnele distinctive ale c\u00e2inelui.<\/p>\n
Totul se potrivea.<\/p>\n
\u00cen ultima zi, am pus actele de plecare pe mas\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Dup\u0103 aproape doi ani, Bruno pleac\u0103 acas\u0103, am spus.<\/p>\n
Maia m\u0103 corect\u0103 imediat:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ro\u0219covan.<\/p>\n
Am z\u00e2mbit.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ro\u0219covan pleac\u0103 acas\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cenainte s\u0103 ias\u0103, s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat ceva ce nu voi uita niciodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Maia \u0219i-a luat p\u0103pu\u0219a de pe p\u0103tur\u0103.<\/p>\n
Bruno a privit-o.<\/p>\n
Cu c\u00e2teva zile \u00eenainte, ar fi intrat \u00een panic\u0103 dac\u0103 cineva ar fi ridicat-o.<\/p>\n
Acum doar d\u0103dea din coad\u0103.<\/p>\n
Feti\u021ba i-a \u00eentins-o.<\/p>\n
\u2014 O mai vrei?<\/p>\n
Ro\u0219covan a mirosit p\u0103pu\u0219a.<\/p>\n
Apoi i-a \u00eempins m\u00e2na cu botul, dar nu a luat-o.<\/p>\n
Maia a str\u00e2ns p\u0103pu\u0219a la piept.<\/p>\n
Iar c\u00e2inele s-a a\u0219ezat l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n
Atunci am \u00een\u021beles ceva.<\/p>\n
Timp de doi ani, p\u0103pu\u0219a nu fusese juc\u0103ria lui.<\/p>\n
Fusese promisiunea lui.<\/p>\n
Ultima buc\u0103\u021bic\u0103 din copilul pe care \u00eel pierduse.<\/p>\n
O p\u0103zise pentru c\u0103 nu \u0219tia dac\u0103 Maia avea s\u0103 se \u00eentoarc\u0103 vreodat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Iar acum nu mai avea nevoie s\u0103 o \u021bin\u0103.<\/p>\n
Maia era din nou l\u00e2ng\u0103 el.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd au ie\u0219it din ad\u0103post, Ro\u0219covan s-a oprit o clip\u0103 \u00een dreptul por\u021bii.<\/p>\n
S-a uitat \u00eenapoi spre mine.<\/p>\n
Apoi a fugit dup\u0103 feti\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
Dou\u0103 luni mai t\u00e2rziu am primit o fotografie.<\/p>\n
Maia dormea \u00een pat, cu p\u0103pu\u0219a l\u00e2ng\u0103 pern\u0103.<\/p>\n
Pe covor, chiar l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea, dormea Ro\u0219covan.<\/p>\n
Pe spatele fotografiei, Andreea scrisese o singur\u0103 propozi\u021bie:<\/p>\n
\u201eUnii c\u00e2ini nu se pierd. Doar continu\u0103 s\u0103 a\u0219tepte p\u00e2n\u0103 c\u00e2nd familia lor \u00eei g\u0103se\u0219te din nou.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
