\u00cen\u0103untrul cutiei, lumina soarelui s-a prins pe ni\u0219te obiecte ciudate: monede vechi, buc\u0103\u021bi de argint, un ceas de buzunar \u0219i o fotografie \u00eenr\u0103mat\u0103, alb-negru. Lumea s-a apropiat \u00een t\u0103cere.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u00cen fiecare zi, c\u00e2nd golesc pubelele, v\u0103d ce arunc\u0103 oamenii. De ani de zile, am adunat tot ce era p\u0103r\u0103sit, rupt, aruncat\u2026 \u0219i le-am dat o nou\u0103 via\u021b\u0103. A\u0219a cum am f\u0103cut \u0219i cu familia mea, a spus el cu voce cald\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Fotografia asta e de la \u00eenceputurile noastre, a continuat el, ar\u0103t\u00e2nd imaginea unei tinere familii cu un bebelu\u0219 \u00een bra\u021be. Noi nu am avut nimic, doar credin\u021b\u0103 \u0219i munc\u0103.<\/p>\n
Maria \u00ee\u0219i duse m\u00e2na la gur\u0103, pl\u00e2ng\u00e2nd \u00een t\u0103cere.<\/p>\n
\u2014 \u00centr-o zi, am g\u0103sit \u00een gunoi un portofel. L-am dus la poli\u021bie, \u0219i proprietarul \u2014 un domn b\u0103tr\u00e2n \u2014 a venit la mine acas\u0103. \u00cen\u0103untru erau 30.000 de lei \u0219i acte importante. Nu a vrut s\u0103 cread\u0103 c\u0103 i le-am returnat. \u0218ti\u021bi ce mi-a spus? \u201eOmul care nu fur\u0103 nici c\u00e2nd poate, acela e cu adev\u0103rat bogat.\u201d<\/p>\n
Privirile tuturor s-au \u00eendreptat spre el. Beatrice, de\u0219i \u00eencerca s\u0103 par\u0103 st\u0103p\u00e2n\u0103 pe sine, \u00ee\u0219i mu\u0219ca buza.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cu timpul, am str\u00e2ns destul c\u00e2t s\u0103-mi trimit fata la facultate. Iar azi, omul care o iube\u0219te o prime\u0219te ca pe o prin\u021bes\u0103. Spune\u021bi-mi, doamn\u0103, e ceva ru\u0219inos \u00een asta?<\/p>\n
Lini\u0219te deplin\u0103. Doar fo\u0219netul frunzelor \u0219i c\u00e2ntecul u\u0219or al v\u00e2ntului se auzeau.<\/p>\n
Dinu s-a ridicat \u00een picioare. S-a apropiat de tat\u0103l Mariei, i-a luat m\u00e2inile \u0219i i le-a s\u0103rutat.<\/p>\n
\u2014 V\u0103 mul\u021bumesc, domnule Lupu. Datorit\u0103 dumneavoastr\u0103 am \u00eenv\u0103\u021bat ce \u00eenseamn\u0103 demnitatea.<\/p>\n
Fiecare invitat a \u00eenceput s\u0103 aplaude, \u00eencet la \u00eenceput, apoi din ce \u00een ce mai tare. Chiar \u0219i c\u00e2\u021biva din rudele lui Dinu, care plecaser\u0103, s-au oprit \u00een poart\u0103, ru\u0219ina\u021bi.<\/p>\n
Beatrice \u0219i-a cobor\u00e2t privirea. Ochii i s-au umplut de lacrimi.
\u2014 M-am \u00een\u0219elat, a spus ea \u00een \u0219oapt\u0103. A\u021bi crescut o fiic\u0103 minunat\u0103.<\/p>\n
Don Manuel a z\u00e2mbit \u0219i a \u00eenchis cutia.
\u2014 Adev\u0103rata bog\u0103\u021bie nu se m\u0103soar\u0103 \u00een bani, doamn\u0103, ci \u00een ce r\u0103m\u00e2ne \u00een sufletul omului.<\/p>\n
Apoi s-a \u00eentors spre Maria \u0219i Dinu:
\u2014 Tr\u0103i\u021bi frumos, copii. \u0218i nu uita\u021bi niciodat\u0103 de unde a\u021bi plecat.<\/p>\n
Muzica s-a auzit din nou, iar oamenii au \u00eenceput s\u0103 danseze. Beatrice, \u00een t\u0103cere, s-a a\u0219ezat l\u00e2ng\u0103 Roza \u0219i i-a str\u00e2ns m\u00e2na. Dou\u0103 mame, dou\u0103 lumi diferite, unite prin lacrimi \u0219i \u00een\u021belegere.<\/p>\n
Soarele apunea peste curtea plin\u0103 de flori. Pe uli\u021b\u0103, ma\u0219ina de gunoi se \u00eendep\u0103rta \u00eencet, sc\u00e2nteind \u00een lumina serii.<\/p>\n
Iar \u00een inima Mariei, un g\u00e2nd simplu \u0219i curat r\u0103suna: \u201eCine munce\u0219te cinstit, nu are de ce s\u0103 se ru\u0219ineze.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u00cen\u0103untrul cutiei, lumina soarelui s-a prins pe ni\u0219te obiecte ciudate: monede vechi, buc\u0103\u021bi de argint, un ceas de buzunar \u0219i o fotografie \u00eenr\u0103mat\u0103, alb-negru.
