Oleg a intrat fluier\u00e2nd, cu o pung\u0103 de bere \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103, ca \u0219i cum nimic nu s-ar fi \u00eent\u00e2mplat. \u00cen buc\u0103t\u0103rie mirosea a sarmale, dar masa era goal\u0103. \u00cen locul farfuriilor, pe mas\u0103 l-a a\u0219teptat un teanc de haine \u00eemp\u0103turite frumos \u0219i un dosar ro\u0219u.<\/p>\n
Natalia st\u0103tea \u00een picioare, sprijinit\u0103 de chiuvet\u0103. Nu pl\u00e2ngea, nu \u021bipa. Doar \u00eel privea rece, de parc\u0103 ar fi fost un str\u0103in.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Ce-i asta? a \u00eentrebat el, ridic\u00e2nd o c\u0103ma\u0219\u0103.
\u2014 Bagajul t\u0103u. Restul e jos, la u\u0219\u0103.<\/p>\n
Oleg a z\u00e2mbit for\u021bat.
\u2014 Iar te-a apucat teatrul? Ce-i cu tine?<\/p>\n
\u2014 A venit cineva azi, i-a r\u0103spuns Natalia calm. O femeie. Mi-a spus c\u0103 tu\u2026 ai alte planuri.<\/p>\n
Z\u00e2mbetul i s-a stins. A l\u0103sat punga jos.
\u2014 Ce femeie?<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cea care te a\u0219teapt\u0103 s\u0103 scapi de mine. \u0218i de tata.<\/p>\n
Oleg s-a albit la fa\u021b\u0103.
\u2014 Natalia, ascult\u0103-m\u0103, nu e cum crezi!<\/p>\n
Dar ea a ridicat m\u00e2na.
\u2014 Ba e exact cum cred. Ai vrut s\u0103 stai p\u00e2n\u0103 mor ai mei, s\u0103 r\u0103m\u00e2i cu apartamentul. \u0218i poate te g\u00e2ndeai \u0219i la ceasul de aur al tatei, nu?<\/p>\n
El a vrut s\u0103 se apropie, dar Natalia a f\u0103cut un pas \u00een spate.
\u2014 Nu te mai obosi. Actele sunt acolo. Le semnezi \u0219i pleci.<\/p>\n
T\u0103cerea care a urmat a fost grea ca o piatr\u0103. Din camera copiilor se auzea ceasul tic\u0103ind, iar ploaia b\u0103tea \u00een geam.<\/p>\n
Oleg a oftat, \u0219i-a trecut m\u00e2na prin p\u0103r \u0219i s-a pr\u0103bu\u0219it pe scaun.
\u2014 Am gre\u0219it, Natalia. Am fost prost. Dar te iubesc, \u0219tii bine asta\u2026<\/p>\n
Ea l-a privit cu un amestec de mil\u0103 \u0219i dezgust.
\u2014 Nu, Oleg. Tu te iube\u0219ti doar pe tine.<\/p>\n
A luat dosarul de pe mas\u0103, l-a pus \u00een bra\u021bele lui \u0219i a mers spre dormitor. C\u00e2nd s-a \u00eentors, \u021binea \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103 un teanc de fotografii \u2014 nunta lor, vacan\u021bele, z\u00e2mbete false. Le-a pus \u00een sob\u0103 \u0219i a aprins un chibrit.<\/p>\n
Fl\u0103c\u0103rile au prins via\u021b\u0103, lumin\u00e2nd chipul ei lini\u0219tit.
\u2014 Uite, Oleg\u2026 a\u0219a se termin\u0103 o minciun\u0103.<\/p>\n
El a r\u0103mas nemi\u0219cat, privind cum amintirile se transform\u0103 \u00een cenu\u0219\u0103. Apoi s-a ridicat, \u0219i-a luat hainele \u0219i a plecat f\u0103r\u0103 un cuv\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n
Natalia a \u00eenchis u\u0219a \u00een urma lui \u0219i s-a sprijinit de ea. Lacrimile i-au curs abia atunci, \u00een t\u0103cere. Dar nu de durere, ci de eliberare.<\/p>\n
\u00cen zilele urm\u0103toare, \u0219i-a schimbat numele pe interfon, a vopsit pere\u021bii \u0219i a aruncat tot ce \u00eei amintea de el. Tat\u0103l ei, c\u00e2nd a aflat, a venit s\u0103 o \u00eembr\u0103\u021bi\u0219eze.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Tat\u0103, i-a spus ea, am crezut c\u0103 via\u021ba mea s-a terminat.
\u2014 Nu, fata mea. Abia acum \u00eencepe.<\/p>\n
A doua s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2n\u0103, Natalia s-a dus cu el la pia\u021b\u0103, a cump\u0103rat legume, a r\u00e2s din nou. \u00centr-o zi, o vecin\u0103 a \u00eentrebat-o:
\u2014 Naty, nu-\u021bi pare r\u0103u?<\/p>\n
Ea a z\u00e2mbit senin.
\u2014 Nu. C\u00e2nd pierzi o minciun\u0103, c\u00e2\u0219tigi lini\u0219tea.<\/p>\n
La scurt timp, Oleg a \u00eencercat s\u0103 se \u00eentoarc\u0103. A venit cu flori, a b\u0103tut la u\u0219\u0103, dar Natalia nu i-a mai r\u0103spuns. Prin geam, a v\u0103zut-o cum st\u0103tea cu tat\u0103l ei la mas\u0103, r\u00e2z\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n
\u0218i-atunci a \u00een\u021beles c\u0103 pierduse tot. Nu doar o femeie, ci o familie.<\/p>\n
Natalia, \u00een schimb, \u0219i-a continuat via\u021ba. \u0218i-a g\u0103sit un serviciu mai bun, \u0219i-a crescut copiii cu demnitate \u0219i, uneori, se g\u00e2ndea la seara aceea ca la \u00eenceputul libert\u0103\u021bii ei.<\/p>\n
Pentru c\u0103 uneori, ca s\u0103-\u021bi recape\u021bi pacea, trebuie mai \u00eent\u00e2i s\u0103 pierzi tot ce te \u021bine legat de o minciun\u0103.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
