Sorina a sim\u021bit cum p\u0103m\u00e2ntul \u00eei fuge de sub picioare. Vorbele Mariei \u00eei r\u0103sunau \u00een minte, otr\u0103vite, dar refuza s\u0103 cread\u0103 c\u0103 Ion ar fi altfel dec\u00e2t omul bun pe care \u00eel cuno\u0219tea. S-a \u00eentors acas\u0103 tremur\u00e2nd, iar Ion i-a sim\u021bit nelini\u0219tea. Nu l-a \u00eentrebat nimic, doar i-a a\u0219ezat m\u00e2na pe inim\u0103 \u0219i i-a spus \u00eencet:<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u201eAscult\u0103. Aici vei g\u0103si mereu adev\u0103rul.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u00cen acea sear\u0103, Sorina a pl\u00e2ns \u00een t\u0103cere. \u00cen ad\u00e2ncul sufletului, se lupta \u00eentre dragostea ce \u00eei \u00eenflorise \u0219i otrava s\u0103dit\u0103 de sora ei. Diminea\u021ba, c\u00e2nd Ion a ie\u0219it s\u0103 aduc\u0103 ap\u0103, ea a mers dup\u0103 el, sprijinindu-se de zidurile colibei, p\u00e2n\u0103 l-a g\u0103sit \u00een genunchi, rug\u00e2ndu-se. Glasul lui tremura, dar nu de team\u0103, ci de recuno\u0219tin\u021b\u0103 pentru via\u021ba pe care o avea acum.<\/p>\n
Sorina a \u00een\u021beles atunci ceva: oricine ar fi fost Ion \u00een trecut, prezentul lor era curat, iar iubirea era mai puternic\u0103 dec\u00e2t orice zvon.<\/p>\n
Dar satul nu uita repede. \u00centr-o zi, un grup de oameni au venit s\u0103-l alunge pe Ion. \u00cel acuzau c\u0103 ar fi furat, c\u0103 ar fi \u00een\u0219elat, c\u0103 nu avea dreptul s\u0103 tr\u0103iasc\u0103 printre ei. Sorina a ie\u0219it \u00een fa\u021ba lor \u0219i, pentru prima dat\u0103 \u00een via\u021ba ei, \u0219i-a ridicat glasul:<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u201eLua\u021bi-m\u0103 pe mine dac\u0103 vre\u021bi s\u0103 alunga\u021bi pe cineva! Eu sunt cea pe care o dispre\u021bui\u021bi de c\u00e2nd s-a n\u0103scut. El este singurul om care m-a v\u0103zut a\u0219a cum sunt!\u201d<\/p>\n
Mul\u021bimea a amu\u021bit. Un b\u0103tr\u00e2n din sat, cel care \u00eei \u0219tia povestea, a f\u0103cut un pas \u00eenainte. A ridicat toiagul \u0219i a spus:<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u201eO fat\u0103 care nu vede lumina soarelui, dar vede lumina din suflete, e mai curat\u0103 dec\u00e2t noi to\u021bi. \u0218i dac\u0103 Ion a ales-o, \u00eenseamn\u0103 c\u0103 \u0219i el s-a cur\u0103\u021bat prin iubire.\u201d<\/p>\n
Oamenii au plecat ru\u0219ina\u021bi, l\u0103s\u00e2ndu-i singuri. Ion, cu lacrimi \u00een ochi, a m\u0103rturisit adev\u0103rul pe care \u00eel ascunsese: fusese odinioar\u0103 un t\u00e2n\u0103r \u00eenst\u0103rit, dar o nenorocire \u0219i tr\u0103darea celor dragi \u00eel aduseser\u0103 pe drumuri, f\u0103r\u0103 avere \u0219i f\u0103r\u0103 speran\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u201eAm crezut c\u0103 sunt pierdut, Sorina. Dar tu\u2026 tu mi-ai dat \u00eenapoi via\u021ba.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ea i-a z\u00e2mbit prin lacrimi \u0219i i-a str\u00e2ns m\u00e2na.<\/p>\n
Anii au trecut, \u0219i coliba lor s\u0103r\u0103c\u0103cioas\u0103 s-a transformat \u00eentr-un c\u0103min cald, unde vecinii veneau nu pentru a judeca, ci pentru a cere un sfat, o vorb\u0103 bun\u0103, un pahar de ap\u0103 rece.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-o prim\u0103var\u0103, Ion i-a d\u0103ruit Sorinei un buchet de flori de c\u00e2mp. Le-a pus \u00een m\u00e2na ei \u0219i i-a spus:<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u201eUite, acestea sunt culorile pe care eu le v\u0103d. Dar tu, Sorina, ai fost mereu cea care le-a f\u0103cut vii pentru mine.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u0218i atunci, ca printr-o minune, sufletul ei a sim\u021bit c\u0103 lumina nu vine doar prin ochi, ci prin inim\u0103. \u00cen fa\u021ba iubirii adev\u0103rate, nici orbirea, nici s\u0103r\u0103cia, nici batjocura nu mai aveau putere.<\/p>\n
Povestea lor a devenit pild\u0103 \u00een sat: c\u0103 nu frumuse\u021bea sau avu\u021bia dau valoare unui om, ci puterea de a iubi \u0219i de a fi iubit.<\/p>\n
Iar Sorina \u0219i Ion, doi oameni pe care lumea \u00eei socotise pierdu\u021bi, au ar\u0103tat tuturor c\u0103 fericirea nu se caut\u0103 \u00een palatele de piatr\u0103, ci se cl\u0103de\u0219te acolo unde dou\u0103 inimi bat la unison.<\/p>\n
Aceasta a fost biruin\u021ba lor \u2013 o victorie a iubirii asupra r\u0103ut\u0103\u021bii, a luminii asupra \u00eentunericului, \u0219i a demnit\u0103\u021bii asupra dispre\u021bului.<\/p>\n
\u0218i niciun cuv\u00e2nt otr\u0103vit nu a mai putut vreodat\u0103 s\u0103 le umbreasc\u0103 destinul.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
