Gicu se \u00eentorcea pe nou\u0103 c\u0103r\u0103ri de la bodeg\u0103. Se \u00eennoptase de c\u00e2teva ore \u0219i nu se putea g\u00e2ndi la altceva dec\u00e2t la g\u0103l\u0103gia \u0219i cic\u0103leala pe care o va primi din partea lui Flori, c\u0103 vine iar at\u00e2t de t\u00e2rziu acas\u0103 \u0219i pe deasupra \u0219i beat, c\u0103 a l\u0103sat-o o zi \u00eentreag\u0103 cu gospod\u0103ria. Dup\u0103 ce c\u0103 vine obosit\u0103 de la munc\u0103, o s\u0103-i zic\u0103. Pff… munc\u0103. Dac\u0103 \u0219i aia era munc\u0103… S\u0103 sco\u021bi ni\u0219te boraci din pizda altora.<\/p>\n

A dracu\u2019 curv\u0103. De fapt, ei \u00eei era ciud\u0103 c\u0103 a b\u0103ut f\u0103r\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n

\u0218i ce gospod\u0103rie, care gospod\u0103rie… Toat\u0103 ziua bele\u0219te ochii \u00een televizor \u0219i cite\u0219te reviste d-alea scumpe. \u0218i tot degeaba, c\u0103 tot ur\u00e2t\u0103 \u00eei.<\/p>\n

Cu g\u00e2ndul la Flori, nu observ\u0103 un camion ce se apropia de el. Trecu \u00een goan\u0103 \u0219i-l stropi cu noroi din cap p\u00e2n\u0103-n picioare.<\/p>\n

\u201cUlioooooo! M\u00e2nca-te-ar ciorili! Ia uite la el m\u00e2nca-\u021bi-a\u0219, ce m-a murd\u0103rit\u2026 grijania m\u0103-tii\u201d, url\u0103 \u00een urma camionului Gicu.<\/p>\n

\u00cei era ciud\u0103 c\u0103 acum va ajunge acas\u0103 \u0219i murdar de noroi. O s\u0103 cread\u0103 c\u0103 am c\u0103zut \u00een \u0219an\u021b. Mor\u021bii m\u0103-sii de camion, acu\u2019 trebuia el s\u0103 treac\u0103. Mai bine mai beam, c\u0103deam \u00een \u0219an\u021b \u0219i \u0219tiam o treab\u0103, nu m\u0103 mustra curva a\u0219a pe degeaba.<\/p>\n

\u00cel b\u0103tea g\u00e2ndul s\u0103 se \u00eentoarc\u0103 la bodeg\u0103 \u0219i s\u0103 mai bea. Mai avea ceva bani, vreo \u0219aptezeci de mii. \u0218i a\u0219a curva nu o s\u0103 aprecieze c\u0103 s-a \u00eentors acas\u0103, \u00eenc\u0103 treaz. O s\u0103 urle, a\u0219a cum face mereu. De parc\u0103 ea ar fi u\u0219a de biseric\u0103… Se fute cu cine prinde, bea de stinge, e o puturoas\u0103, nu face treab\u0103, are o meserie de r\u00e2sul lumii… Uite, ia s\u0103 fi fost \u0219i ea cum ar veni osp\u0103t\u0103ri\u021b\u0103… Iaca acilea, la bodega nou\u0103 deschis\u0103 de un boier care a venit de cur\u00e2nd \u00een \u00cemp\u0103una\u021bi. Aud c\u0103 aia c\u00e2\u0219tig\u0103 16 milioane. Ptiu, c\u00e2t b\u0103net! N-am mai avea nicio grij\u0103 cu at\u00e2ta b\u0103net. Da\u2019 cine e prost s-o angajeze pe t\u00e2mpita de Flori? Mai ales c\u0103 s-a \u0219i \u00eengr\u0103\u0219at… asta noua aduce a\u0219a pu\u021bin cu Daniela Crudu, e frumoas\u0103 de pic\u0103. Plus c\u0103 Flori mai e \u0219i cic\u0103litoare! P\u0103i at\u00e2ta i-ar trebui unui client, s-o ciupeasc\u0103 de fund… Ar s\u0103ri nebuna s\u0103-l bat\u0103. Ce proast\u0103! Ea cum o crede c\u0103 se face banii… a\u0219a face oamenii banii, mai \u00eenchide un ochi, mai \u00eenghite una-alta \u0219i gata… A\u0219a se tr\u0103ie\u0219te. El, de pild\u0103, n-ar zice nimic dac\u0103 ea s-ar duce cu unu\u2019 \u0219i cu altul \u0219i ar veni dup\u0103 cu bani acas\u0103.<\/p>\n

Cu mintea aiurea, nu se mai uit\u0103 pe unde merge, se \u00eempiedic\u0103 \u0219i c\u0103zu \u00eentr-o groap\u0103 proap\u0103t s\u0103pat\u0103. \u00ce\u0219i scr\u00e2nti glezna.<\/p>\n

\u201cFutu-\u021bi Pa\u0219tele m\u0103-tii, Dumnezeul \u0219i grija mor\u021bilor t\u0103i!\u201d. O femeie, ie\u0219it\u0103 \u00een curte, \u00eel auzi c\u0103 suduie \u0219i \u00ee\u0219i f\u0103cu cruce.<\/p>\n

\u201cNu mai m\u00e2nia\u021bi pe Dumnezeu, ce-i cu vorbele astea?\u201d, arunc\u0103 ea de dup\u0103 gard. Gicu, enervat la culme, o \u00eenjur\u0103 \u0219i pe ea \u0219i toat\u0103 specia muiereasc\u0103, \u00een frunte cu Flori.<\/p>\n

Plec\u0103 mai departe. \u00ce\u0219i cump\u0103r\u0103 o votc\u0103 de la magazinul universal, o desf\u0103cu \u0219i \u00eencepu s\u0103 bea.<\/p>\n

Se \u00eent\u00e2lni cu doi vecini, care nu-i r\u0103spunser\u0103 la salut, privindu-l cu sil\u0103 pentru c\u0103 umbl\u0103 beat ziua-n amiaza mare. Eh. Ce \u0219tie ei… Dac\u0103-ar fi \u0219i ei lua\u021bi cu putoarea de Flori, alta ar fi situa\u021bia… A\u0219a, cine s\u0103-\u021bi cread\u0103 amarul.<\/p>\n

Mai merse ce mai merse \u0219i \u00ee\u0219i d\u0103du seama c\u0103 a \u00eencurcat drumul spre cas\u0103, c\u0103 s-a r\u0103t\u0103cit. Nu i se mai \u00eent\u00e2mplase niciodat\u0103. Ce zi dat\u0103 dracu, \u00ee\u0219i zise. Nimerise pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 un t\u0103p\u0219an, unde un b\u0103ie\u021bel, copilul S\u0103ftic\u0103i din ce-\u0219i d\u0103dea el seama, p\u0103\u0219tea o turm\u0103 de oi. De fapt nu p\u0103\u0219tea el oile, animalele p\u0103\u0219teau singure, iar copilul dormea dus sub un copac. \u00cel strig\u0103, dar nu primi niciun r\u0103spuns. \u00cei veni atunci \u00een minte o idee nebuneasc\u0103: Cum ar fi s\u0103 fure un miel?! \u0218i a\u0219a \u00een ultimul timp r\u0103bdase de foame, putoarea de nevast\u0103-sa f\u0103cea numai ciorb\u0103 de varz\u0103 cu cartofi, cu gust de ap\u0103 tulbure \u00een care a cl\u0103tit c\u00e2teva rufe. Ce mare daravel\u0103… \u00eel ia la spinare \u0219i fuge cu el. Uite colo-\u0219a unu mic de tot, \u0103la nici s\u0103 beh\u0103ie \u00eenc\u0103 nu l-a \u00eenv\u0103\u021bat m\u0103-sa. \u00cel iau de picioare, \u00eel pun la spinare \u0219i fug cu el acas\u0103. Nici nu-i zic la putoare, \u00eel tai, \u00eel g\u0103tesc \u0219i-l halesc p\u00e2n\u0103 vine ea. Mai ascund poate ni\u0219te carne prin \u0219opron, pentru zile negre.<\/p>\n

Zis \u0219i f\u0103cut. Gicu se apropie de un miel, cel mai mic din turm\u0103. Mielul veni \u00eenspre b\u0103rbat, clipind din ochi cu mult\u0103 curiozitate.<\/p>\n

\u201cHai la tata, hai b\u0103iatu\u2019, la tata\u201d, \u00eel ademeni el. Mielul \u00eei atinse buricele degetelor cu botul, apoi \u00eel linse cu poft\u0103. Chiar \u00een acel moment, b\u0103rbatul vizibil ame\u021bit lu\u0103 mielul de picioare \u0219i-l arunc\u0103 \u00een spinare. Animalul \u00eencepu s\u0103 beh\u0103ie zgomotos. Gicu nu-\u0219i mai poate aminti apoi ce s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat. Ca \u0219i cum ar fi intrat dintr-o dat\u0103 o armat\u0103 de draci \u00een ele, oile s-au n\u0103pustit spre el. Parc\u0103 erau turbate nu alta, se scutur\u0103 Gicu cu oroare ca \u0219i cum ni\u0219te insecte veninoase s-ar fi urcat pe el, de fiecare dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd \u00ee\u0219i aminte\u0219te cum a furat mielul.<\/p>\n

Din fr\u00e2nturile care-i vin \u00een minte, a luat-o la fug\u0103 cu mielul \u00een spate. Doar nu eram prost s\u0103 pierd prada, d\u0103-le dreacu\u2019 de oi p\u00e2n\u0103 la urm\u0103, ce-or s\u0103-mi fac\u0103, or s\u0103 m\u0103 m\u0103n\u00e2nce fript? Oile s-au \u021binut dup\u0103 el \u00eens\u0103, apropiindu-se tot mai mult \u0219i mai mult. Ca s\u0103 scape, s\u0103ri \u00een fug\u0103 gardul la Maricica, cu miel cu tot, dar c\u0103lc\u0103 din gre\u0219eal\u0103 \u00eentr-o furc\u0103 \u0219i \u00eencepu s\u0103 urle. Nu era nimeni \u00een casa femeii, a\u0219a c\u0103 Gicu se g\u00e2ndi s\u0103 se ad\u0103posteasc\u0103. Deschise u\u0219a c\u0103m\u0103rii \u0219i b\u0103g\u0103 mielul acolo. Se g\u00e2ndi s\u0103 \u00eel lege cu ceva, dar nu g\u0103si mai nimic care s\u0103-i fie de folos, a\u0219a c\u0103 renun\u021b\u0103. Unde s\u0103 fug\u0103, mama lui de \u00eencornorat. Scotoci prin buc\u0103t\u0103ria femeii \u0219i \u2013 minune mare, pentru care Gicu nu mai preget\u0103 \u0219i \u00ee\u0219i f\u0103cu o cruce imens\u0103, mul\u021bumescu-\u021bi \u021aie Doamne! \u2013 g\u0103si \u021buic\u0103. Se a\u0219ez\u0103 confortabil la mas\u0103 \u0219i \u00eencepu s\u0103 bea. B\u0103u, b\u0103u. C\u00e2nd era la un pas de a adormi, capul c\u0103z\u00e2ndu-i deja de c\u00e2teva ori pe mas\u0103, se dezmetici brusc, s\u0103ri \u00een picioare \u0219i se porni s\u0103 caute mielul. Din nefericire, uitase unde-l pusese. \u00cen timp ce fuma pe prispa femeii o \u021bigar\u0103 g\u0103sit\u0103 pe un raft din buc\u0103t\u0103rie, privind nelini\u0219tit oile care p\u0103\u0219teau pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 gardul Maricic\u0103i, neav\u00e2nd nicio inten\u021bie s\u0103 se duc\u0103 \u00een treaba lor \u2013 muistele dreacu\u2019 \u2013 Gicu v\u0103zu mielul. Lighioana reu\u0219ise s\u0103 ias\u0103 din c\u0103mar\u0103 \u0219i alerga acuma fericit prin curte, tr\u0103g\u00e2nd cu din\u021bii de marginile rufelor puse de femeie la sp\u0103lat. Ia uite la el, jegosu\u2019, \u00ee\u0219i zise Gicu, cu un z\u00e2mbet pu\u021bin admirativ fa\u021b\u0103 de vigoarea animalului. \u00cel fluier\u0103, \u0219i mielul \u00eentoarse capul spre r\u0103pitorul s\u0103u. Hai la tata, Marinic\u0103, hai la tata! M\u00e2nca-te-a\u0219 fript!, complet\u0103 Gicu mai \u00een \u0219oapt\u0103, pentru ca mielul s\u0103 nu se prind\u0103 ce viitor s\u00e2ngeros \u00eel a\u0219teapt\u0103. Marinic\u0103 \u00eens\u0103 continua s\u0103-\u0219i \u00eenfig\u0103 col\u021bii \u00een rufele proasp\u0103t sp\u0103late. Ce coios s-ar face \u0103sta, se g\u00e2ndi din nou cu admira\u021bie Gicu. P\u0103cat de el, ce s\u0103-i faci, cu foamea asta… cine mai poate cre\u0219te animale doar a\u0219a de suflet… V\u0103z\u00e2nd c\u0103 mielul de ast\u0103 dat\u0103 nu mai vine spre el, Gicu se apuc\u0103 s\u0103-l fug\u0103reasc\u0103 prin ograd\u0103. La un moment dat reu\u0219i s\u0103-i prind\u0103 de picioarele din spate, dar mielul \u2013 dar-ar dracii \u00een el \u2013 se repezi \u0219i-l apuc\u0103 cu din\u021bii de m\u00e2n\u0103. Na\u021bia m\u0103-tii, \u00eei arunc\u0103 \u00een sictir b\u0103rbatul beat. Ia uite al dreacu\u2019 ce putere are, de parc\u0103 ar fi un berbec, nu un miel abia f\u0103tat, se mai g\u00e2ndi el, reu\u0219ind \u00een final s\u0103 prind\u0103 lighioana \u0219i s\u0103 ias\u0103 din curte cu ea la spinare.<\/p>\n

Cu mielul la spinare, care, \u00een timpul petrecut \u00een c\u0103mara femeii, parc\u0103 se f\u0103cuse ceva mai greu \u2013 a\u0219a cre\u0219te ele, mama lor, g\u00e2ndi omul \u2013 Gicu fu un pic derutat. Nu mai \u0219tia exact \u00een ce parte a satului \u00ee\u0219i avea casa cu muierea. Era un fapt nemaipomenit p\u00e2n\u0103 atunci, \u021bin\u00e2nd cont c\u0103 Gicu tr\u0103ia de 39 de ani \u00een \u00cemp\u0103una\u021bi, mai exact de c\u00e2nd se n\u0103scuse. Casa pe care \u0219i-o f\u0103cuse cu Flori era lipit\u0103 de cea \u00een care tr\u0103iser\u0103 r\u0103posa\u021bii s\u0103i p\u0103rin\u021bi, Safta \u0219i Gheorghi\u021b\u0103, unul mort de ciroz\u0103, cel\u0103lalt c\u0103lcat de tren. Acum era pentru prima dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd nu mai \u0219tia \u00een ce direc\u021bie s\u0103 o apuce ca s\u0103 ajung\u0103 acas\u0103, la muiere. S\u0103 moar\u0103 dracii, nu mai beau, \u00ee\u0219i zise Gicu, sim\u021bind chiar atunci nevoie inconfundabil\u0103 de a trage o du\u0219c\u0103 de t\u0103rie. Mai zisese, de altfel, de multe ori c\u0103 nu mai bea, dar se r\u0103zg\u00e2ndise \u00een ultimul moment.<\/p>\n

Mielul din spinarea b\u0103rbatului \u00eencepu s\u0103 se smuceasc\u0103 cu putere. Stai, Marinic\u0103, stai cu tata, acu\u0219ica ajungem, \u00eei zise, dar mielul, \u00eenc\u0103p\u0103\u021b\u00e2nat, reu\u0219i s\u0103 \u00ee\u0219i sl\u0103beasc\u0103 picioarele din str\u00e2nsoarea omului \u0219i \u00eei s\u0103ri din spinare. Se repezi glon\u021b la poarta babei Geta, care tocmai scosese ni\u0219te saci cu gunoi. Dibui ni\u0219te oase de pui \u0219i \u00eencepu s\u0103 le ron\u021b\u0103ie. Ia uite al dreacu\u2019, \u0103sta m\u0103n\u00e2nc\u0103 \u0219i carne, o fi vreun miel blestemat, se g\u00e2ndi b\u0103rbatul speriat \u0219i \u00ee\u0219i f\u0103cu imediat trei cruci largi \u0219i cam tremurate. \u00cei venea s\u0103 o ia la s\u0103n\u0103toasa, s\u0103 \u00eencerce s\u0103 nimereasc\u0103 drumul spre cas\u0103, s\u0103 se tr\u00e2nteasc\u0103 \u00een pat odat\u0103 ajuns acolo \u0219i s\u0103 doarm\u0103 dus, dar tocmai c\u00e2nd era c\u00e2t pe-aci s-o ia din loc mielul veni la picioarele lui \u0219i porni s\u0103 se gudure. Ia uite, m\u00e2nca-l-ar tata, zici c\u0103-i c\u0103\u021bel, \u00ee\u0219i zise Gicu. De data asta nu-l mai lu\u0103 la spinare. Mielul se \u021binea de bun\u0103voie dup\u0103 el, oprindu-se din c\u00e2nd \u00een c\u00e2nd s\u0103 ridice c\u00e2te un picior \u0219i s\u0103 lase un jet sub\u021birel pe anumite garduri \u0219i copaci.<\/p>\n

Dur\u0103 c\u00e2teva ore p\u00e2n\u0103 ca Gicu s\u0103 g\u0103seasc\u0103 drumul spre cas\u0103. \u00cel \u00eent\u00e2lni pe Gigi, dar Gigi venea dinspre bodeg\u0103 \u0219i era beat muci. Se certase \u0219i el cu muierea \u2013 cine nu se mai ceart\u0103 \u00een ziua de azi, nebunele astea zici c\u0103 a luat-o razna \u2013 \u0219i, colac peste pup\u0103z\u0103, trei dintre cei 11 copii \u00eei erau bolnavi. Prin urmare, Gigi \u00eel \u00eenso\u021bi o bucat\u0103 de drum \u0219i \u00eel \u00eendrum\u0103 \u00een direc\u021bia pe care o credea cea corect\u0103. Gicu nu ajunse \u00eens\u0103 acas\u0103 urm\u00e2ndu-\u0219i prietenul, ci pe un deal, cu mielul con\u0219tiincios la numai c\u00e2\u021biva pa\u0219i \u00een urma lui. Nu-i ar\u0103tase lui Gigi c\u0103 ademenise mielul, de team\u0103 ca b\u0103rbatul s\u0103 nu scape la be\u021bie c\u0103 Gicu fur\u0103 oi din cur\u021bile cons\u0103tenilor.<\/p>\n

Dac\u0103 tot ajunsese pe deal, se g\u00e2ndi c\u0103 s-ar putea odihni pu\u021bin. Scoase din buzunar restul de votc\u0103 \u0219i \u00eel d\u0103du pe g\u00e2t. \u00cei veni poft\u0103 de o \u021bigar\u0103, a\u0219a c\u0103 se apuc\u0103 s\u0103 adune chi\u0219toacele de prin iarb\u0103. Trase c\u00e2teva fumuri. St\u00e2nd \u00een fund \u0219i g\u00e2f\u00e2ind, mielul \u00eel privea cu curiozitate.

Nu \u0219tia de unde \u00eei venise numele Jianu, c\u0103ci parc\u0103 mai devreme mielul se numise altfel… dar nu-\u0219i mai putea aduce aminte. Jianu g\u0103f\u0103ia cu limba scoas\u0103. Alei, pe c\u0103ldurile astea, se g\u00e2ndi Gicu. Invidia mielul c\u0103 \u00eenc\u0103 este ferit de binefacerile \u0219i chinurile ce deriv\u0103 din patima alcoolului. Termin\u0103 votca, epuiz\u0103 chi\u0219toacele \u0219i se g\u00e2ndi c\u0103 e timpul de data asta s\u0103 o ia spre cas\u0103, \u0219i de data asta ar face bine s\u0103 \u0219i nimereasc\u0103, altfel zile bune cu muierea nici c-o s\u0103 mai aib\u0103. Plus c\u0103 nu trebuia s\u0103 r\u0103t\u0103ceasc\u0103 animalul, cina \u0219i pr\u00e2nzul lor pentru urm\u0103toarele zile. \u00cencepu s\u0103 coboare dealul. Se mai poticnea din c\u00e2nd \u00een c\u00e2nd, fie \u00een c\u00e2te o r\u0103d\u0103cin\u0103 de copac, fie \u00een ni\u0219te crengi, fie \u00eentr-un morman de peturi aruncate pe marginea drumului de c\u0103tre or\u0103\u0219enii care veniser\u0103 la gr\u0103tar s\u00e2mb\u0103ta trecut\u0103. Parc\u0103 acilea la noi ar fi sat de vacan\u021b\u0103, nu de oameni, \u00ee\u0219i zise cu n\u0103duf Gicu, \u00een timp ce se culegea de pe jos. De fiecare dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd se \u00eempiedica \u0219i c\u0103dea, mielul se oprea din alergat, \u00eentindea botul spre el \u0219i-l mirosea, dup\u0103 care a\u0219tepta r\u0103bd\u0103tor ca b\u0103rbatul s\u0103 se ridice \u0219i s\u0103-\u0219i continue al\u0103turi de el excursia.<\/p>\n

Hai, Vasilic\u0103, hai cu tata!, \u00eel strig\u0103 Gicu, dup\u0103 care scuip\u0103 dezgustat. Parc\u0103 avea alt nume javra… Numele Vasilic\u0103 \u00eei aminti de Vasile, care de la un timp se cam \u021binea dup\u0103 Flori. C\u00e2nd \u00eent\u00e2rzia el pe la bodeg\u0103, \u00eel g\u0103sea mereu pe Vasile d\u00e2nd t\u00e2rcoale casei lui. Ba vroia o sap\u0103, ba ni\u0219te m\u0103lai, deh, ca \u00eentre vecini, zicea. Sap\u0103, m\u0103lai, vecini, vecini, dar p\u00e2n\u0103 la muiere, se g\u00e2ndi Gicu, revoltat.<\/p>\n

Ajunse \u00een strada principal\u0103 \u0219i v\u0103zu o c\u0103ru\u021b\u0103. Era Milu\u021b\u0103, se ducea \u00een satul vecin, cu treburi. \u00cel opri \u0219i-l \u00eentreb\u0103 dac\u0103 nu-l ia \u0219i pe el c\u00e2\u021biva pa\u0219i p\u00e2n\u0103 acas\u0103. \u201eCare, brie, c\u00e2\u021biva pa\u0219i te-ai t\u00e2mpit, c\u0103 mata stai \u00een capu\u2019 cel\u0103lant\u201d, \u00eei zise Milu\u021b\u0103. Gicu observ\u0103 c\u0103 se afla chiar la ie\u0219irea din \u00cemp\u0103una\u021bi. Ptiu, scuip\u0103 el, la numai c\u00e2teva degete de mielul care a\u0219tepta deznod\u0103m\u00e2ntul. Vru s\u0103-l strige din nou Vasilic\u0103, dar c\u0103ut\u0103 un alt nume \u0219i i se n\u0103z\u0103ri c\u0103 pe miel \u00eel cheam\u0103 Marinic\u0103. Parc\u0103 auzise pe cineva strig\u00e2ndu-l a\u0219a. Animalul r\u0103spunse la acest apelativ d\u00e2nd din coad\u0103. V\u0103z\u00e2ndu-l pe Gicu c\u0103 se urc\u0103 \u00een c\u0103ru\u021b\u0103, mielul nu mai a\u0219tept\u0103 alt \u00eendemn \u0219i f\u0103cu \u0219i el \u021bu\u0219ti l\u00e2ng\u0103 paie.<\/p>\n

\u201cDa\u2019 ci-i cu animalul ista brie?\u201d, \u00eentreb\u0103 amuzat t\u00e2n\u0103rul. Gicu brodi o poveste pe loc, care nu prea se lega, cu o veri\u0219oar\u0103 a nevesti-sii care \u00eei d\u0103duse mielul s\u0103 \u00eel duc\u0103 la p\u0103scut c\u00e2teva zile, pe urm\u0103 s\u0103 \u00eel taie \u0219i s\u0103 \u00eei aduc\u0103 \u0219i ei ceva carne. Milu\u021b\u0103 pufni \u00een r\u00e2s. \u201cNo, asta-i prea de tot, s\u0103 m\u0103 chemi \u0219i pe mine c\u00e2nd l-oi t\u0103ia.\u201d Gicu nu \u00een\u021belese de ce r\u00e2de t\u00e2n\u0103rul, dar nu-\u0219i b\u0103tu prea mult capul cu asta. Avea \u00een general o p\u0103rere proast\u0103 despre tineri. Leat stricat, \u00een care au dat dracii buluc, zicea ori de c\u00e2te ori o vedea pe Albi\u021ba sau pe altele de v\u00e2rsta ei, umbl\u00e2nd mai mult goale prin sat. C\u00e2nd vedea \u0219i odraslele or\u0103\u0219enilor, b\u0103ie\u021bii cu c\u00e2te un belciug \u00een spr\u00e2ncean\u0103 \u0219i cu petice lipite pe blugi, mai c\u0103 \u00eei venea s\u0103 \u00ee\u0219i fac\u0103 cruce. Unde mai pui c\u0103 a\u0219tia ai or\u0103\u0219enilor \u00eei stricau \u0219i pe ai oamenilor din \u00cemp\u0103una\u021bi. Chiar Albi\u021ba fusese un copil cuminte p\u00e2n\u0103 de cur\u00e2nd, respectuos, mergea la \u0219coal\u0103, saluta c\u00e2nd trecea pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 tine pe strad\u0103. Acuma era posedat\u0103. Umbla toat\u0103 ziua cu ni\u0219te fire \u00een urechi din care se auzea muzic\u0103 \u0219i \u00ee\u0219i mai f\u0103cuse \u0219i o gaur\u0103 \u00een buric, \u00een care \u00ee\u0219i b\u0103gase un belciug, \u0219i acuma umbla a\u0219a f\u0103r\u0103 ru\u0219ine cu buricul gol, g\u0103urit cu belciugul. Mare \u021bi-e gr\u0103dina, g\u00e2ndea Gicu de fiecare dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd vedea fata, despre care to\u021bi spuneau c\u0103 e cea mai frumoas\u0103 din sat \u0219i c\u0103, dac\u0103 va avea \u0219i ea norocul ei, ar putea ajunge la Bucure\u0219ti, asistent\u0103 la televizor, la o emisiune cum e aia a lu\u2019 chelu\u2019 cu blonda aia de plastic care a fost cuplat\u0103 cu poponarul \u0103la de face chilo\u021bi. De frumoas\u0103 ce-i drept era frumoas\u0103, nu ca toanta de Flori care a \u00eenceput s\u0103 arate ca purceaua Lili a lu\u2019 M\u0103rin, ehei s\u0103 mai fie el t\u00e2n\u0103r…<\/p>\n

C\u00e2nd se preg\u0103tea s\u0103 \u00eencheie aceste reflec\u021bii amare, pricinuite cel mai probabil de restul de alcool care era pe punctul s\u0103-i ias\u0103 din creier, \u00eel v\u0103zu pe Marinic\u0103 c\u0103 se repede sub ro\u021bile unei ma\u0219ini. Un or\u0103\u0219ean t\u0103ia \u00een goan\u0103 satul, iar mielul s\u0103rise la ro\u021bile automobilului.<\/p>\n

\u201eDar-ar dracii \u00een tine, Marinic\u0103, \u021bi s-a ur\u00e2t cu binele, huo!!!\u201d, zbier\u0103 b\u0103rbatul la patrupedul devenit brusc r\u0103zboinic. Mielul se \u00eentoarse d\u00e2nd din coad\u0103 spre proasp\u0103tul s\u0103u st\u0103p\u00e2n, \u00een timp ce, \u00een c\u0103ru\u021b\u0103, Milu\u021b\u0103 r\u00e2dea \u0219i se \u021binea cu m\u00e2inile de burt\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u201cCi tot mai crezi c\u0103-i miel, brie?\u201d, \u00eel \u00eentreb\u0103 el pe Gicu, dar acesta nu-i r\u0103spunse. Prinse animalul \u0219i se sui cu el \u00een c\u0103ru\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u201cM\u00e2n\u0103, m\u0103i b\u0103iete, s\u0103 ajung \u0219i eu la muiere\u201d, zise el, parc\u0103 f\u0103r\u0103 prea mare tragere de inim\u0103.<\/p>\n
