cu\u015fca dalma\u0163ianului<\/em> \u2013 plasat\u0103 discret \u00een spatele unui garaj, mai exact \u00een prelungirea lui, ultimul pe dreapt\u0103, la parterul unei cl\u0103diri cu trei etaje, unde locuiesc \u015fase familii bogate \u015fi aparent fericite? Stai s\u0103-\u0163i spun. Printr-o \u00eent\u00e2mplare. Acum o\u00a0 \u00eent\u00e2mplare uitat\u0103 (\u00a0 un amic, beat mort, a adormit \u00een cad\u0103). Dispari\u0163ia lui n-a adus bani nim\u0103nui; nimeni n-a\u00a0 consumat \u015ferve\u0163ele, pentru to\u0163i a fost o scurt\u0103 surpriz\u0103, ca atunci c\u00e2nd nu te a\u015ftep\u0163i \u015fi te treze\u015fti cu prietena ta pe cap care te ia pe sus cu ma\u015fina de la o petrecere.<\/p>\nPe atunci nu m\u0103 ocupam cu nimic. Era \u00een iulie lui 2005. Aruncam pietre \u00een ap\u0103, cum \u00eei pl\u0103cea proprietarei, doamna Violeta, s\u0103-i\u00a0 spun\u0103 prietenei ei. \u00cemi f\u0103cusem obicei \u00een vara aia s\u0103 ies la plimbare t\u00e2rziu, dup\u0103 ora zece. \u00centr-o diminea\u0163\u0103 de mar\u0163i, chiar l\u00e2ng\u0103 u\u015f\u0103,\u00a0 v\u0103d un graur s\u0103lbatic. Poate l-a r\u0103nit vreo pisic\u0103, ceva,\u00a0 am crezut \u00een prima faz\u0103. P\u0103rea obosit, f\u0103r\u0103 putere. Nici o urm\u0103 de ran\u0103. Nu mai v\u0103zusem grauri de nu-\u015ftiu-c\u00e2nd. L-am ridicat \u015fi l-am dus \u00een\u0103untru; a b\u0103ut foarte pu\u0163in\u0103 ap\u0103; de cele c\u00e2teva firimituri de p\u00e2ine nu s-a atins. Am improvizat rapid un cuib din vechiul \u015fi preferatul meu tricou pe care nu m\u0103 las\u0103 inima s\u0103-l fac c\u00e2rp\u0103, \u015fi l-am a\u015fezat acolo. N-am vorbit cu nimeni toat\u0103 ziua. Sim\u0163eam o str\u00e2ngere de inim\u0103,\u00a0 \u00eengrijorare combinat\u0103 cu panic\u0103, de fiecare dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd mintea-mi zbura la am\u0103r\u00e2tul \u0103la de pe tricou. C\u00e2nd m-am \u00eentors acas\u0103 l-am g\u0103sit tot acolo, pe tricou, cu ochii \u00eenchi\u015fi. Mort.<\/p>\n
A r\u0103mas pe dulap, \u00eenf\u0103\u015furat \u00eentr-un ziar, uitat acolo p\u00e2n\u0103 toamna t\u00e2rziu, c\u00e2nd cineva a intrat \u00een buc\u0103t\u0103rie \u015fi l-a observat. Nu am obiceiul s\u0103 m\u0103 uit foarte des pe dulap \u015fi nici vreun miros specific n-am sim\u0163it, probabil c\u0103 s-a uscat rapid. \u00cen orice caz eu am uitat cu totul de el. Ajungeam noaptea t\u00e2rziu, uneori \u00eenso\u0163it de c\u00e2te o tip\u0103, u\u015for ame\u0163it\u0103, dornic\u0103 de autodistrugere, cu probleme financiare sau naiba mai \u015ftie ce era \u00een sufletul lor. Probabil r\u0103bdarea cu care le ascultam era mare meu secret involuntar.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
– Cum e afar\u0103, plou\u0103? m-a \u00eentrebat Tania, cu o voce joas\u0103, gata s\u0103 izbucneasc\u0103 \u00een pl\u00e2ns. Abia mai t\u00e2rziu mi-am dat seama c\u0103 tot farmecul \u00eei venea din vocea asta bizar\u0103, \u00een care se amestecau un fel de erotism pl\u00e2ng\u0103cios, plin de nuan\u0163e, \u015fi ceva dur \u015fi ininteligibil cum auzi prin documentare vorbind eschimo\u015fii.<\/p>\n
– Foarte \u00eencet. E mai mult burni\u0163\u0103 dec\u00e2t ploaie.<\/p>\n
– Ce-ai spus c\u0103 e? Bufni\u0163\u0103?<\/p>\n
– Bufni\u0163\u0103 capul t\u0103u. Voiam s\u0103 spun c\u0103 plou\u0103 m\u0103runt, abia de observi. E ur\u00e2t. Vrei s\u0103 fac un ceai?<\/p>\n
– Da, dar mai \u00eent\u00e2i vreau la baie.<\/p>\n
Baia \u015fi buc\u0103t\u0103ria sunt \u00een aceea\u015fi camer\u0103. O garsonier\u0103 cu dou\u0103 camere: una serve\u015fte la de toate \u2013 dormitor, sufragerie etc.; baia \u015fi buc\u0103t\u0103ria \u00een cealalt\u0103 camer\u0103, separate printr-o perdea albastr\u0103 cu flori de mu\u015fe\u0163el. Un sfert din baie e ocupat de vana enorm\u0103 din font\u0103, alt sfert de chiuvet\u0103 \u015fi de closetul cu ornament vegetal \u015fi str\u0103lucitor, care-i d\u0103 un aer imperial, deloc potrivit cu spa\u0163iul. E una din piesele la care \u0163in \u00een mod special, imaginea lui m\u0103 face s\u0103 z\u00e2mbesc de fiecare dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd dau perdeaua la o parte. Un aragaz portabil, butelie, dulap, un frigider de hotel, o mas\u0103 \u015fi dou\u0103 scaune mobileaz\u0103 buc\u0103t\u0103ria; o parte din dulap, care-i prea lung pentru un spa\u0163iu ca \u0103sta, ajunge \u00een baie. Am intrat am\u00e2ndoi: ea a dat perdeaua la o parte \u015fi s-a a\u015fezat, eu am dat drumul la aragaz.<\/p>\n

–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Aaaa, penele alea? Nimic, sunt r\u0103m\u0103\u015fi\u0163ele unei rude mai \u00eendep\u0103rtat\u0103 de-a mea.<\/p>\n

Am t\u0103cut \u00eencerc\u00e2nd s\u0103-mi imaginez ce vede ea acolo pe dulap. S-a ridicat. Zgomotul apei a f\u0103cut ca \u0163ip\u0103tul ei s\u0103 par\u0103 mai pu\u0163in strident.<\/p>\n
