\u2014 Cine este? am \u00eentrebat.<\/p>\n
Nimeni nu r\u0103spunse imediat.<\/p>\n
T\u00e2n\u0103ra \u00een rochie crem \u00ee\u0219i privi paharul spart de pe podea.<\/p>\n
Andrei r\u0103spunse primul:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Camelia. Logodnica mea.<\/p>\n
Porumbul devenise aproape rece \u00een m\u00e2na mea.<\/p>\n
Am mai luat o boab\u0103.<\/p>\n
Nu voiam.<\/p>\n
Dar trebuia.<\/p>\n
\u201eNu ea m-a omor\u00e2t.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas nemi\u0219cat\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u201eDar ea m-a trimis acolo.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2014 Renata? \u00eentreb\u0103 tat\u0103l Luciei. Ce auzi?<\/p>\n
Camelia ridic\u0103 brusc privirea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce prostie! Chiar asculta\u021bi femeia asta?<\/p>\n
Vocea ei tremura.<\/p>\n
Atunci am \u0219tiut.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Lucia spune c\u0103 nu tu ai omor\u00e2t-o.<\/p>\n
Pentru o frac\u021biune de secund\u0103, pe chipul Cameliei ap\u0103ru u\u0219urarea.<\/p>\n
Am continuat:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Spune \u00eens\u0103 c\u0103 tu ai trimis-o la persoana care a f\u0103cut-o.<\/p>\n
Andrei se \u00eentoarse spre logodnica lui.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Este absurd!<\/p>\n
Camelia f\u0103cu un pas \u00eenapoi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Femeia asta nici m\u0103car nu a cunoscut-o pe Lucia!<\/p>\n
Dinspre hol se auzir\u0103 strig\u0103te.<\/p>\n
Unul dintre angaja\u021bi se \u00eentoarse alerg\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Domnule Vasile\u2026<\/p>\n
Tat\u0103l Luciei se ridic\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce este?<\/p>\n
B\u0103rbatul nu reu\u0219ea s\u0103 vorbeasc\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen urma lui ap\u0103ru unul dintre poli\u021bi\u0219ti.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Trebuie s\u0103 eliber\u0103m casa. Acum.<\/p>\n
Mama Luciei \u00eencepu s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 A\u021bi g\u0103sit-o?<\/p>\n
Poli\u021bistul nu r\u0103spunse.<\/p>\n
Nici nu era nevoie.<\/p>\n
Chipul lui r\u0103spunsese deja.<\/p>\n
Tat\u0103l Luciei se sprijini de mas\u0103.<\/p>\n
Andrei porni spre cram\u0103, dar poli\u021bistul \u00eel opri.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu cobor\u00e2\u021bi. Zona trebuie izolat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Camelia f\u0103cu \u00eencet \u00eenc\u0103 un pas spre u\u0219\u0103.<\/p>\n
Am observat-o.<\/p>\n
\u0218i poli\u021bistul la fel.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Domni\u0219oar\u0103, r\u0103m\u00e2ne\u021bi aici.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De ce? Eu n-am f\u0103cut nimic.<\/p>\n
Porumbul \u0219opti din nou:<\/p>\n
\u201e\u00centreab-o de Sergiu.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cine este Sergiu?<\/p>\n
Camelia \u00eencremeni.<\/p>\n
Andrei se \u00eentoarse spre ea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 De unde \u0219tie numele \u0103sta?<\/p>\n
Acum toat\u0103 \u00eenc\u0103perea \u00eel privea.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cine este Sergiu? repet\u0103 tat\u0103l Luciei.<\/p>\n
Andrei \u00ee\u0219i trecu palma peste fa\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Fratele Cameliei.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu am niciun frate! strig\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n
Andrei o privi uluit.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cum adic\u0103? Mi-ai spus c\u0103 Sergiu este fratele t\u0103u vitreg.<\/p>\n
Camelia realiz\u0103 prea t\u00e2rziu ce f\u0103cuse.<\/p>\n
Porumbul \u00eemi mai d\u0103du un singur fragment.<\/p>\n
\u201eCabana. Lacul. Telefonul.\u201d<\/p>\n
Apoi t\u0103cu.<\/p>\n
Complet.<\/p>\n
Am \u00eencercat \u00eenc\u0103 o boab\u0103.<\/p>\n
Nimic.<\/p>\n
Pentru prima dat\u0103 dup\u0103 ce \u00eel cump\u0103rasem, porumbul era doar porumb.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Lucia a fost dus\u0103 la o caban\u0103 l\u00e2ng\u0103 un lac \u2014 am spus. \u2014 \u0218i trebuie s\u0103 c\u0103uta\u021bi un telefon.<\/p>\n
Unul dintre detectivi ridic\u0103 imediat capul.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Familia are o caban\u0103 la lac?<\/p>\n
Tat\u0103l cl\u0103tin\u0103 din cap.<\/p>\n
Dar Andrei \u0219opti:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Sergiu are.<\/p>\n
Camelia izbucni:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu pute\u021bi construi o anchet\u0103 pe ce spune o nebun\u0103 care vorbe\u0219te cu m\u00e2ncarea!<\/p>\n
Poli\u021bistul o privi atent.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ave\u021bi dreptate.<\/p>\n
Camelia clipi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci pot pleca?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu. Dar vom construi ancheta pe probe.<\/p>\n
\u00cen urm\u0103toarele ore, vila se umplu de criminali\u0219ti.<\/p>\n
\u00cen cram\u0103 fusese g\u0103sit trupul Luciei, ascuns \u00eentr-un compartiment vechi din spatele unui raft mobil.<\/p>\n
Dar mai exista ceva.<\/p>\n
Telefonul ei nu era acolo.<\/p>\n
Poli\u021bia verific\u0103 informa\u021biile despre Sergiu.<\/p>\n
Cabana exista.<\/p>\n
La aproximativ patruzeci de kilometri de Ploie\u0219ti, l\u00e2ng\u0103 un lac.<\/p>\n
\u00cen acea noapte, poli\u021bi\u0219tii au g\u0103sit acolo telefonul Luciei ascuns sub podeaua unei magazii.<\/p>\n
Nu fusese distrus.<\/p>\n
Iar datele puteau fi recuperate.<\/p>\n
A doua zi, adev\u0103rul \u00eencepu s\u0103 ias\u0103 la iveal\u0103.<\/p>\n
Lucia descoperise c\u0103 Andrei \u0219i Camelia urmau s\u0103 se c\u0103s\u0103toreasc\u0103, dar Camelia ascundea datorii uria\u0219e.<\/p>\n
Mai grav, ea \u0219i Sergiu falsificaser\u0103 documente pentru a ob\u021bine bani folosind numele unor firme apropiate familiei Vasile.<\/p>\n
Lucia aflase.<\/p>\n
Camelia o convinsese s\u0103 se \u00eent\u00e2lneasc\u0103 cu Sergiu la caban\u0103, pretinz\u00e2nd c\u0103 acesta \u00eei va da documentele originale.<\/p>\n
Acolo izbucnise o ceart\u0103.<\/p>\n
Sergiu o lovise.<\/p>\n
Lucia murise.<\/p>\n
Panicat, o sunase pe Camelia.<\/p>\n
Iar ea nu chemase poli\u021bia.<\/p>\n
\u00cel ajutase s\u0103 aduc\u0103 trupul \u00eenapoi la vila familiei, unde cuno\u0219tea un vechi compartiment al cramei pe care aproape nimeni nu \u00eel mai folosea.<\/p>\n
Planul era monstruos de simplu.<\/p>\n
S\u0103 lase familia s\u0103 cread\u0103 c\u0103 Lucia fusese r\u0103pit\u0103.<\/p>\n
S\u0103 a\u0219tepte.<\/p>\n
Apoi, c\u00e2nd c\u0103ut\u0103rile se stingeau, s\u0103 mute trupul.<\/p>\n
Dar n-au avut timp.<\/p>\n
Pentru c\u0103 eu cump\u0103rasem un porumb.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2teva s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2ni mai t\u00e2rziu, mama Luciei m-a chemat la vil\u0103.<\/p>\n
P\u0103rea cu zece ani mai b\u0103tr\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu \u0219tiu ce e\u0219ti, Renata \u2014 mi-a spus.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nici eu.<\/p>\n
Mi-a \u00eentins un plic.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Recompensa.<\/p>\n
Nu l-am luat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu pentru asta am venit.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atunci de ce?<\/p>\n
M-am g\u00e2ndit la ro\u0219ia cherry de c\u00e2nd aveam \u0219ase ani.<\/p>\n
La orezul care m\u0103 \u00eenv\u0103\u021base s\u0103 tac.<\/p>\n
La toate mesele \u00een timpul c\u0103rora \u00eenghi\u021bisem secretele altora.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 Lucia nu mai putea vorbi singur\u0103.<\/p>\n
Mama ei \u00eencepu s\u0103 pl\u00e2ng\u0103.<\/p>\n
M-a \u00eembr\u0103\u021bi\u0219at.<\/p>\n
\u00cenainte s\u0103 plec, buc\u0103t\u0103reasa familiei mi-a pus \u00eentr-o pung\u0103 c\u00e2teva sandvi\u0219uri pentru drum.<\/p>\n
Am urcat \u00een autobuz \u0219i m-am a\u0219ezat l\u00e2ng\u0103 geam.<\/p>\n
Nu m\u00e2ncasem nimic toat\u0103 ziua.<\/p>\n
Am desf\u0103cut unul.<\/p>\n
Am mu\u0219cat.<\/p>\n
Pentru c\u00e2teva secunde nu s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat nimic.<\/p>\n
Am z\u00e2mbit u\u0219urat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Apoi p\u00e2inea \u0219opti:<\/p>\n
\u201eRenata\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Am \u00eenchis ochii.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu. Te rog. Nu ast\u0103zi.<\/p>\n
Vocea continu\u0103:<\/p>\n
\u201eB\u0103rbatul a\u0219ezat \u00een spatele t\u0103u are \u00een buzunar fotografia unei fete disp\u0103rute.\u201d<\/p>\n
Am r\u0103mas cu sandvi\u0219ul nemi\u0219cat \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen geamul autobuzului vedeam reflexia b\u0103rbatului de pe scaunul din spate.<\/p>\n
M\u0103 privea.<\/p>\n
\u0218i atunci am \u00een\u021beles ceva ce mama \u00eencercase s\u0103 m\u0103 \u00eenve\u021be \u00eenc\u0103 de c\u00e2nd aveam \u0219ase ani.<\/p>\n
Dar \u00eel \u00een\u021belesese doar pe jum\u0103tate.<\/p>\n
Nu orice secret trebuie spus.<\/p>\n
