Sub pat, o pereche de ochi verzi str\u0103lucea \u00een \u00eentuneric. Ofi\u021berul a tres\u0103rit \u0219i a dus instinctiv m\u00e2na la pistol. Feti\u021ba s-a lipit de mama ei, tremur\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu trage\u021bi! \u2014 a strigat sergentul. \u2014 Poate fi un animal!<\/p>\n
A \u00eengenuncheat din nou \u0219i a aprins lanterna. Lumina a luminat o fa\u021b\u0103 murdar\u0103, cu zg\u00e2rieturi ad\u00e2nci. Era un b\u0103ie\u021bel, nu mai mare de \u0219apte ani, cu haine rupte \u0219i picioarele goale.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Doamne sfinte\u2026 \u2014 a murmurat poli\u021bistul. \u2014 E un copil!<\/p>\n
L-au scos de sub pat cu grij\u0103. Copilul tremura, \u021bin\u00e2ndu-\u0219i m\u00e2inile la piept, \u0219i p\u0103rea s\u0103 nu \u00een\u021beleag\u0103 unde se afl\u0103. C\u00e2nd a ridicat privirea, ochii i s-au umplut de lacrimi.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Nu m\u0103 duce\u021bi \u00eenapoi\u2026 v\u0103 rog\u2026<\/p>\n
Mia s-a uitat la el cu uimire.
\u2014 Tu e\u0219ti cel care vorbea?
\u2014 Da\u2026 \u00eemi era foame\u2026 \u0219i frig\u2026<\/p>\n
Mama fetei a dus m\u00e2na la gur\u0103.
\u2014 Dar\u2026 cine e\u0219ti, dragule?<\/p>\n
Poli\u021bi\u0219tii \u0219i-au dat seama c\u0103 situa\u021bia era mai serioas\u0103 dec\u00e2t p\u0103rea. Au \u00eenceput s\u0103 pun\u0103 \u00eentreb\u0103ri bl\u00e2nde, dar copilul r\u0103spundea greu. P\u0103rea epuizat \u0219i speriat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 M\u0103 cheam\u0103 Andrei<\/strong>, \u2014 a spus \u00een cele din urm\u0103. \u2014 Am fugit\u2026 de acolo\u2026<\/p>\n \u2014 De unde, Andrei? \u2014 l-a \u00eentrebat sergentul, \u00eengenuncheat l\u00e2ng\u0103 el.<\/p>\n B\u0103iatul a t\u0103cut. Lacrimile i-au curs pe obraji. A ar\u0103tat spre fereastr\u0103. To\u021bi s-au uitat \u00een direc\u021bia indicat\u0103. Prin geamul camerei se vedea o cas\u0103 p\u0103r\u0103sit\u0103, cu acoperi\u0219ul pr\u0103bu\u0219it \u0219i ferestrele sparte. O cas\u0103 pe care oamenii din cartier o ocoleau de ani de zile.<\/p>\n \u2014 Spune-ne ce s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat acolo, \u2014 a zis sergentul cu o voce cald\u0103.<\/p>\n \u2014 M-au \u021binut \u00eenchis\u2026 ni\u0219te oameni r\u0103i\u2026 am sc\u0103pat pe geam\u2026 \u0219i m-am ascuns aici.

Casa p\u0103r\u0103sit\u0103 a fost \u00eencercuit\u0103. \u00cen\u0103untru, au descoperit un subsol improvizat, cu lan\u021buri, resturi de m\u00e2ncare \u0219i urme care ar\u0103tau c\u0103 mai fusese cineva acolo.<\/p>\n Andrei a fost dus la spital, iar Mia nu s-a mai desprins de el. \u021ainea m\u00e2na lui mic\u0103 \u00een palm\u0103 \u0219i \u00eei \u0219optea: Peste c\u00e2teva zile, s-a aflat c\u0103 b\u0103iatul fusese dat disp\u0103rut cu luni \u00een urm\u0103.

Andrei a z\u00e2mbit pentru prima oar\u0103. Poli\u021bi\u0219tii au privit scena \u00een t\u0103cere. Sergentul, acela\u0219i care se uitase primul sub pat, \u0219i-a scos cascheta \u0219i a spus \u00eencet: De atunci, Mia n-a mai avut co\u0219maruri.
