\nI, I hate the colorful clothes she wears
\nAnd the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
\nI hear the sound of a gentle word
\nOn the wind that lifts her perfume through the air \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 [The Beach Boys \u2013 Good Vibrations<\/em> (Smiley Smile 1967)]<\/p>\n

Lucruri foarte rele<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Priveau to\u0163i trei \u00een morm\u00e2ntul paralelipipedic de ciment. Crepusculul monocromatic le lumina spatele. Fiecare din ei avea pe fa\u0163\u0103 o expresie de satisfac\u0163ie demonic\u0103. Aproape c\u0103 le venea s\u0103 r\u00e2d\u0103 \u00een hohote.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eC\u00e2t am suferit …\u201d g\u00e2ndi blondul, pun\u00e2ndu-\u015fi ciocanul imens pe um\u0103r.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201e … pentru momentul \u0103sta …\u201d g\u00e2ndi \u00een acela\u015fi timp \u015fi brunetul cre\u0163, \u015fterg\u00e2ndu-\u015fi sudoarea de pe frunte.<\/p>\n

 
\n
\n\u201e … dar imaginea asta merit\u0103 fiecare scr\u00e2\u015fnet de din\u0163i pe care l-am \u00eendurat !\u201d \u00eencheie cel cu ochii verzi, pun\u00e2ndu-\u015fi m\u00e2inile \u00een \u015folduri.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Se \u00eentoarser\u0103 to\u0163i spre asfin\u0163itul care \u00eenghi\u0163ea orizontul.<\/p>\n

\u2013 E ciudat ! r\u00e2se blondul.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce anume ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 C\u0103 rela\u0163ia noastr\u0103 s\u0103 se sf\u00e2r\u015feasc\u0103 \u00een acelea\u015fi condi\u0163ii \u00een care a \u00eenceput !<\/p>\n

Ceilal\u0163i doi \u00eencuviin\u0163ar\u0103. Apoi se \u00eentoarser\u0103 spre mausoleul neacoperit, pe fundul c\u0103ruia z\u0103cea o fat\u0103.<\/p>\n

Era legat\u0103 la m\u00e2ini \u015fi la picioare, \u015fi avea un c\u0103lu\u015f \u00een gur\u0103. Era brunet\u0103, iar fa\u0163a pres\u0103rat\u0103 cu pistrui exprima team\u0103 \u015fi ne\u00een\u0163elegere. Era frumoas\u0103. Privea \u00een sus, la cei trei c\u0103l\u0103i. Avea privirea r\u0103v\u0103\u015fit\u0103 de durere. Din arcada st\u00e2ng\u0103 \u00eei curgea s\u00e2nge.<\/p>\n

\u00cencerc\u0103 s\u0103 articuleze ceva, dar numai ni\u015fte morm\u0103ituri p\u0103r\u0103sir\u0103 g\u00e2tul ei. Cei trei b\u0103ie\u0163i s\u0103rir\u0103 \u00een groap\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCe-au de g\u00e2nd s\u0103 fac\u0103 !?\u201d se sperie ea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Asta era rezultatul sentimentelor manufacturate.<\/p>\n

Tot ce avea s\u0103 urmeze era vina ei, fiindc\u0103 ea fusese cea care iubise cu adev\u0103rat, singura care iubise cu adev\u0103rat. Ceilal\u0163i se ag\u0103\u0163aser\u0103 de o imagine trec\u0103toare, \u015fi fuseser\u0103 a\u0163\u00e2\u0163a\u0163i de … forma ei eratic\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCulmea, \u015fi eu am f\u0103cut la fel !\u201d g\u00e2ndi ea, revoltat\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2013 Aici ne desp\u0103r\u0163im, m\u0103rturisi blondul. \u2013 A fost … interesant ! r\u00e2nji el, apoi o s\u0103rut\u0103 pe frunte \u015fi se c\u0103\u0163\u0103r\u0103 afar\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Mi-a f\u0103cut o real\u0103 pl\u0103cere ! \u00eei spuse cel cu ochii verzi, apoi o s\u0103rut\u0103 \u015fi el pe obraz \u015fi ie\u015fi.<\/p>\n

\u2013 S\u0103 \u015ftii c\u0103 nu-mi pare r\u0103u de absolut niciun moment pe care l-am petrecut \u00eempreun\u0103 ! \u00eei \u015fopti cre\u0163ul, \u015fi pe moment, fata crezu c\u0103 o cru\u0163ase.<\/p>\n

Apoi, t\u00e2n\u0103rul se apropie de ea \u015fi o s\u0103rut\u0103 pe buzele care str\u00e2ngeau \u00eentre ele c\u0103lu\u015ful.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Adio …<\/p>\n

Ie\u015fi \u015fi el din groapa de beton, al\u0103tur\u00e2ndu-se celorlal\u0163i doi.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Hai s\u0103 \u00eencheiem aici tot ce ne-a legat pe noi patru ! decret\u0103 el.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fata \u00eencepu s\u0103 se zbat\u0103, iar ochii ei spuneau mai multe vorbe de durere dec\u00e2t o mie de guri. O plan\u015f\u0103 de \u00eentuneric se prelingea \u00eencet pe trupul ei.<\/p>\n

Ea \u00eel privea pe brunetul cre\u0163, iar acesta \u00eei f\u0103cu cu ochiul.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cine-i cine ?<\/p>\n

1.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Era plictisit. Avea doar 17 ani, dar era mai plictisit de via\u0163\u0103 dec\u00e2t unul de 80 de ani. \u00cen jurul s\u0103u, b\u0103ie\u0163i \u015fi fete dansau f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103-l ia \u00een seam\u0103, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 le pese de el. Atmosfera era \u00eencins\u0103, b\u0103utura ieftin\u0103 curgea \u00een valuri, la propriu, \u015fi muzica \u00eei percuta \u00een timpane.<\/p>\n

Dar el era plicitisit.<\/p>\n

\u00ce\u015fi trecu degetele prin p\u0103rul cre\u0163, rotind c\u00e2teva bucle, apoi oft\u0103. C\u00e2teva fete \u00eei f\u0103cuser\u0103 cu ochiul mai \u00eenainte, dar acum erau prea ocupate sug\u00e2nd limbile altor b\u0103ie\u0163i. Nu se deranj\u0103 s\u0103 se ridice nici m\u0103car atunci c\u00e2nd cineva v\u0103rs\u0103 un pahar imens de bere pe blugii s\u0103i. Privi pierdut la pata obscen\u0103, apoi c\u0103zu iar\u0103\u015fi pe g\u00e2nduri.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Era ora 3 diminea\u0163a.<\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Deodat\u0103, privirea i se ridic\u0103 involuntar, \u015fi d\u0103du cu ochii de …<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCea mai … de trebuin\u0163\u0103 fat\u0103 !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

… pe care o v\u0103zuse vreodat\u0103.<\/p>\n

Era perfect\u0103. P\u00e2n\u0103 \u00een ultimul detaliu. Totul, nu doar aspectul. Felul \u00een care deschidea ochii, felul \u00een care p\u0103\u015fea pe podeaua murdar\u0103 de bere \u015fi vom\u0103, felul \u00een care \u00ee\u015fi balansa bra\u0163ele \u015fi \u015foldurile …<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCe dracu\u2019 caut\u0103 ea aici ?\u201d se mir\u0103 el, \u015fi pentru prima oar\u0103 \u00een seara aceea, sim\u0163i nevoia s\u0103 se ridice \u00een picioare.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ea se apropia de el. Nu o mai v\u0103zuse \u00een via\u0163a lui, dar ea se \u00eendrepta spre el ca \u015fi cum l-ar fi cunosct de o via\u0163\u0103. Nici nu \u015ftia ce ar trebui s\u0103 fac\u0103. Fata se apropie de el. Lumina b\u0103tea \u00een a\u015fa fel \u00eenc\u00e2t doar partea dreapt\u0103 a fe\u0163ei \u00eei era luminat\u0103. \u00ce\u015fi puse bra\u0163ele la el pe umeri, \u015fi f\u0103r\u0103 un cuv\u00e2nt \u00eel s\u0103rut\u0103 ap\u0103sat pe gur\u0103.<\/p>\n

Avea respira\u0163ia fierbinte, \u015fi \u015ftia ce f\u0103cea. El se pierdu, \u015fi p\u00e2n\u0103 realiz\u0103 situa\u0163ia, fata \u00eei \u00eentoarse spatele \u015fi plec\u0103, f\u0103c\u00e2ndu-i u\u015for cu m\u00e2na.<\/p>\n

\u201eCe dracu\u2019 a fost asta ?\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00ce\u015fi pip\u0103i buzele. \u00cenc\u0103 mai putea sim\u0163i gustul buzelor ei, dar se \u00eentreba \u00eencontinuu …<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eUnde gura m\u0103-sii am fost c\u00e2nd m-a s\u0103rutat ?\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ie\u015fi \u00een fug\u0103 din casa orgiilor, \u015fi privi \u00een jur. Nu z\u0103ri nimic. O v\u0103zuse ie\u015find, dar nu era afar\u0103. Intr\u0103 \u00eenapoi \u015fi cotrob\u0103i fiecare col\u0163 din cas\u0103. Intr\u0103 peste oameni care vomitau \u00een chiuvet\u0103, peste cupluri care se regulau \u00een dormitorul p\u0103rin\u0163ilor gazdei, peste grupuri care se drogau cu adezivii g\u0103si\u0163i \u00een garaj.<\/p>\n

Nimic. Nici urm\u0103 de ea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eEra fata perfect\u0103, \u015fi tu ai stat cu m\u00e2na la pul\u0103, \u00een loc s\u0103 pui m\u00e2na pe ea !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

O pierduse, dar dob\u00e2ndise un nou scop \u00een via\u0163\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u00cel chema Robert, \u015fi avea s\u0103 o g\u0103seasc\u0103 pe fata care \u00eei redase cu un gest voin\u0163a de a tr\u0103i.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00centunericul se l\u0103sase deja de dou\u0103 ore c\u00e2nd el se plimba prin parcul prost iluminat, de unul singur. P\u0103rul s\u0103u blond p\u0103rea aproape \u015faten \u00een lumina lunii care reu\u015fea cu greu s\u0103 str\u0103bat\u0103 frunzi\u015ful des al copacilor.<\/p>\n

\u201eIar\u0103\u015fi singur …\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

F\u0103cuse acel traseu de sute de ori, dar niciodat\u0103 \u00eempreun\u0103 cu alt\u0103 persoan\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eMereu singur …\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

P\u0103\u015fea mereu pe acelea\u015fi dale, care parc\u0103 se afundaser\u0103 datorit\u0103 lui \u00een p\u0103m\u00e2nt. De fiecare dat\u0103 \u00eel cuprindea un sentiment de singur\u0103tate, un sentiment care \u00eel f\u0103cea s\u0103-\u015fi doreasc\u0103 s\u0103 aib\u0103 l\u00e2ng\u0103 el pe oricine. Nu conta. Putea fi oricine.<\/p>\n

Avusese c\u00e2teva prietene, la cei 19 ani ai s\u0103i, dar atunci c\u00e2nd era cu ele, nu \u00eel mul\u0163umeau. Avea nevoie de o fat\u0103 care s\u0103 \u00eel fac\u0103 s\u0103 simt\u0103 c\u0103 are nevoie de el, \u015fi totodat\u0103, s\u0103 \u00eel lase \u00een pace atunci c\u00e2nd el avea nevoie de intimitate.<\/p>\n

Se apropiase de acest tipar de c\u00e2teva ori, dar rezultatul fusese …<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201e … nesatisf\u0103c\u0103tor !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00ce\u015fi \u0163inea m\u00e2inile la spate \u015fi b\u0103rbia \u00een piept.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Era ora 12 seara.<\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Continua s\u0103 p\u0103\u015feasc\u0103 agale pe trotuar. Apoi auzi un \u0163ip\u0103t scurt, urmat de o plesnitur\u0103, ca o palm\u0103 aplicat\u0103 pe o suprafa\u0163\u0103 de marmur\u0103.<\/p>\n

Venea din spatele unui zid acoperit cu mu\u015fchi maroniu. Se opri \u015fi ascult\u0103 un moment. Apoi urm\u0103 a doua plesnitur\u0103.<\/p>\n

Atunci hot\u0103r\u00e2 s\u0103 vad\u0103 ce era. Cu palma lipit\u0103 de zid, se strecur\u0103 pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 el, \u015fi trecu pe partea cealalt\u0103.<\/p>\n

Pe moment nu \u015ftiu ce s\u0103 cread\u0103, ce s\u0103 spun\u0103, ce s\u0103 fac\u0103. Un b\u0103rbat de vreo 30 de ani \u0163inea de \u00eencheietur\u0103 o fat\u0103 care se zb\u0103tea din r\u0103sputeri s\u0103 se elibereze. Din c\u00e2nd \u00een c\u00e2nd o mai plesnea cu sete, bolborosind cuvinte f\u0103r\u0103 sens.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCretinu\u2019 \u0103sta-i beat !\u201d g\u00e2ndi el.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Iar fata … era … de o ging\u0103\u015fie ireal\u0103. \u00cen general nu-i pl\u0103cea s\u0103 vad\u0103 femei b\u0103tute, dar \u00een situa\u0163ia de fa\u0163\u0103, nici nu-\u015fi d\u0103du seama c\u00e2nd \u00eencepuse s\u0103 scr\u00e2\u015fneasc\u0103 din din\u0163i.<\/p>\n

F\u0103ptura aceea brunet\u0103 avea nevoie de el, iar ea, la r\u00e2ndul ei era …<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201e\u015ei eu am mare nevoie de ea !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Am\u00e2ndoi erau conecta\u0163i unul de altul. Ea probabil c\u0103 avea nevoie de el doar atunci, dar el avea nevoie de ea pentru totdeauna.<\/p>\n

A\u015fa c\u0103 nu st\u0103tu prea mult pe g\u00e2nduri. \u00cel strig\u0103 pe b\u0103rbat, \u015fi c\u00e2nd acesta se \u00eentoarse mirat, \u00eel izbi cu podul palmei \u00een falc\u0103.<\/p>\n

Auzi un sunet de os zdrobit, apoi b\u0103rbatul se cl\u0103tin\u0103 \u015fi m\u00e2na i se desprinse de pe \u00eencheietura fetei. Aceasta \u00eei s\u0103ri \u00een bra\u0163e. El o privi \u015fi \u00eei spuse sec:<\/p>\n

\u2013 Vrei s\u0103 dai \u00een el ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 ??? se mir\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 D\u0103-i una \u00een fa\u0163\u0103 cu piciorul ! A doua oar\u0103 n-o s\u0103 se mai ating\u0103 de tine !<\/p>\n

\u015ei fiindc\u0103 fata continua s\u0103 stea, el se desprinse de ea \u015fi \u00eel lovi pe b\u0103rbatul c\u0103zut jos cu piciorul \u00een figur\u0103. Fata \u00eel privi, apoi izbucni \u00een r\u00e2s.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Exact ! r\u00e2se \u015fi el. \u2013 Nu simte nimic, oricum, te asigur ! Cred c\u0103 i-am rupt falca !<\/p>\n

Apoi se apropie de ea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 E\u015fti bine ? De ce te lovea ? Ar trebui \u00eempu\u015fcat, nenorocitu\u2019 dracului !! strig\u0103 el c\u0103tre b\u0103rbatul care z\u0103cea jos, par\u0163ial scufundat \u00eentr-o balt\u0103 m\u00e2loas\u0103. Din gur\u0103 \u00eei curgea un fir gros de s\u00e2nge, \u015fi mandibula inferioar\u0103 \u00eei at\u00e2rna ciudat, ca unui c\u00e2ine c\u0103lcat de ma\u015fin\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u00ce\u015fi \u00eentoarse privirea spre ea, \u015fi v\u0103zu c\u0103 pl\u00e2ngea. Nu pl\u00e2nsul acela pe care \u00eel recuno\u015fti de la o po\u015ft\u0103, ci \u00eei curgeau lacrimi, \u015fi p\u0103rea profund \u00eendurerat\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u00cel privea \u00een ochi.<\/p>\n

Se apropie de ea, \u015fi atunci ea \u00eel s\u0103rut\u0103 ap\u0103sat, \u00eenfig\u00e2ndu-\u015fi degetele \u00een p\u0103rul lui des.<\/p>\n

Apoi, f\u0103r\u0103 un cuv\u00e2nt, se \u00eentoarse, \u015fi se dep\u0103rt\u0103 \u00een fug\u0103 de el.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Hei, unde pleci ? se mir\u0103 el.<\/p>\n

Nu primi niciun r\u0103spuns, iar silueta fetei se pierdu \u00een \u00eentuneric.<\/p>\n

\u00cencepu s\u0103 z\u00e2mbeasc\u0103. Era pu\u0163in nervos, dar dorea s\u0103 z\u00e2mbeasc\u0103. Era prima fat\u0103 care-l f\u0103cea s\u0103 z\u00e2mbeasc\u0103. Trebuia s\u0103 \u015ftie cum o cheam\u0103. Trebuia s\u0103 dea de ea. Ea era cea pe care o c\u0103utase de at\u00e2ta vreme.<\/p>\n

\u00cel chema Dominic. \u00cencepu s\u0103 r\u00e2d\u0103 \u00een hohote.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Ma\u015fina era plin\u0103 de tineri. Doi \u00een fa\u0163\u0103, cinci \u00een spate. \u015ei el era singurul care nu avea partener\u0103. Nu fiindc\u0103 nu vroia nimeni s\u0103 mearg\u0103 cu el, ci fiindc\u0103 toate fetele care voiau s\u0103 mearg\u0103 cu el … erau cunoscute. Toat\u0103 lumea le \u015ftia, \u015fi acest lucru \u00eel deranja.<\/p>\n

Ar fi vrut m\u0103car odat\u0103 s\u0103 intre \u00eentr-o \u00eenc\u0103pere al\u0103turi de o fat\u0103, \u015fi to\u0163i s\u0103 \u00eentoarc\u0103 capul dup\u0103 ei, \u00eentreb\u00e2ndu-se cine era misterioasa lui partener\u0103.<\/p>\n

Ar fi vrut m\u0103car odat\u0103 s\u0103 o ia de la \u00eenceput al\u0103turi de cineva, nu s\u0103 preia de unde al\u0163ii se plictisiser\u0103. Ar fi vrut s\u0103 aduc\u0103 \u015fi el pe cineva nou \u00een grupul lor.<\/p>\n

Dar nu reu\u015fea. Ori de c\u00e2te ori \u00eent\u00e2lnea o fat\u0103, i se f\u0103cea fric\u0103. Credea c\u0103 ceilal\u0163i o vor vorbi de r\u0103u \u00een fa\u0163a lui, sau \u00ee\u015fi vor bate joc de ea, sau c\u0103 pur \u015fi simplu nu o vor accepta. Atunci el ar fi trebuit s\u0103 aleag\u0103 \u00eentre ei sau ea.<\/p>\n

Alegerea era de fiecare dat\u0103 identic\u0103.<\/p>\n

Ce era \u015fi mai r\u0103u, era faptul c\u0103 ceilal\u0163i \u00eel pisau mereu pe tema aceasta.<\/p>\n

De fapt, ei erau motivul pentru care el era singur. Acesta era pre\u0163ul pe care \u00eel pl\u0103tea pentru a fi cu ei. Asta nu \u00eensemna c\u0103 era tot timpul singur. Uneori se scuza c\u0103 nu poate merge cu ei, \u015fi se \u00eent\u00e2lnea cu vreo fat\u0103, dar la evenimente importante, era mereu singur.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCa \u015fi acum …\u201d g\u00e2ndi el, privindu-\u015fi genunchii.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

St\u0103tea pe bancheta din spate a ma\u015finii, \u00een mijloc, iar pe margini st\u0103teau doi b\u0103ie\u0163i, \u0163in\u00e2nd \u00een bra\u0163e dou\u0103 fete.<\/p>\n

\u201eNu-i nimic. M-am obi\u015fnuit. O s\u0103-mi g\u0103sesc o tip\u0103 bine cu care s\u0103 stau toat\u0103 noaptea, de care apoi n-o s\u0103 mai aud \u00een veci … Mereu se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103 a\u015fa …\u201d oft\u0103 \u00een sinea lui.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Toate astea nu l-ar fi deranjat dac\u0103 nu ar fi fost un bun cunosc\u0103tor al psihicului feminin. Era ceva \u00eenn\u0103scut. Fetele gravitau \u00een jurul lui, dar el le respingea, de frica celorlal\u0163i.<\/p>\n

Le atr\u0103gea, apoi le respingea. Acesta era jocul lui, pe care \u00eel \u015ftia pe de rost. De fiecare dat\u0103 pierdea, \u015fi c\u00e2\u015ftiga.<\/p>\n

\u015ei ce era mai r\u0103u, era c\u0103 nu se putea dezobi\u015fnui de mecanismul acela.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eNu-i nimic. M-am obi\u015fnuit.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ma\u015fina opri pe marginea drumului. U\u015file se deschiser\u0103 \u015fi to\u0163i p\u0103\u015fir\u0103 afar\u0103, r\u00e2z\u00e2nd, glumind, f\u0103c\u00e2ndu-\u015fi percep\u0163ii denaturate cu privire la petrecere.<\/p>\n

Cobor\u00e2 \u015fi el afar\u0103, tr\u00e2nti portiera, apoi \u00ee\u015fi aranj\u0103 sacoul negru.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Era ora 9 seara.<\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

La mas\u0103, to\u0163i vorbeau despre acela\u015fi lucru: ultimul chef la care fusese ga\u015fca, inclusiv el. Ocazional, perechile se ridicau \u015fi dansau frenetic o melodie, apoi se a\u015fezau iar\u0103\u015fi \u015fi r\u00e2setele curgeau \u00een valuri.<\/p>\n

Erau \u00een anul II de facultate, \u015fi nu prea le p\u0103sa de nimic altceva dec\u00e2t s\u0103 se simt\u0103 bine la orice or\u0103 din zi sau noapte.<\/p>\n

El st\u0103tea cu coatele pe mas\u0103, cu capul \u00een palme, rotindu-\u015fi privirea de jur \u00eemprejur. C\u00e2teva fete \u00eel filau deja, dar era plictisit.<\/p>\n

\u015etia deja cum avea s\u0103 decurg\u0103 seara. Avea s\u0103 mearg\u0103 s\u0103 vorbeasc\u0103 cu una din ele, apoi va dansa cu ea, \u015foptindu-i vorbe echivoce la ureche, f\u0103c\u00e2nd-o s\u0103 \u00ee\u015fi pun\u0103 \u00eentreb\u0103ri. \u00cen tot acest timp \u00ee\u015fi va \u0163ine m\u00e2inile acas\u0103. Nu trebuie s\u0103 fie mitocan. O va face s\u0103 r\u00e2d\u0103, s\u0103 se mire, s\u0103 fie \u015focat\u0103, apoi se va retrage subtil. Nu \u00eenainte de a-i spune un singur lucru care avea s-o fac\u0103 s\u0103 vrea s\u0103 se mai \u00eent\u00e2lneasc\u0103 cu el.<\/p>\n

Dar el nu va mai avea s\u0103 se \u00eent\u00e2lneasc\u0103 cu ea. Din cauza lor …<\/p>\n

Totu\u015fi, nu putea rezista tenta\u0163iei. Poate c\u0103 el controla sf\u00e2r\u015fitul, dar \u00een privin\u0163a \u00eenceputului …<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eS\u0103 zicem c\u0103 treaba st\u0103 altfel …\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Se ridic\u0103 \u00eencet de pe scaun. Blugii de un albastru deschis aveau o culoare pl\u0103cut\u0103 \u00een semiobscuritatea \u00eenc\u0103perii. Se apropie de o fat\u0103 care \u00eel privea insistent de ceva vreme, probabil din acela\u015fi motiv pentru care \u015fi el o privea pe ea: am\u00e2ndoi erau singuri.<\/p>\n

\u2013 T\u00e2n\u0103r\u0103 domni\u015foar\u0103, dac\u0103 nu v\u0103 deranjez, \u00eemi face\u0163i pl\u0103cerea unui dans ? \u00eentreb\u0103 el z\u00e2mbind u\u015for, privind-o \u00een ochi. \u00cei \u00eentinse m\u00e2na.<\/p>\n

Fata \u00eei r\u0103spunse serios:<\/p>\n

\u2013 Desigur, tinere domn. Pl\u0103cerea e a mea !<\/p>\n

\u00ce\u015fi puse palma ei mic\u0103 \u00een m\u00e2na lui \u015fi \u00eel urm\u0103 pe ringul de dans.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eB\u0103t\u0103lia e deja c\u00e2\u015ftigat\u0103 !\u201d \u00ee\u015fi spuse el plictisit de rutina acestor \u00eent\u00e2lniri.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ea \u00ee\u015fi puse b\u0103rbia la el pe um\u0103r, \u015fi \u00ee\u015fi \u00eenf\u0103\u015fur\u0103 bra\u0163ul \u00een jurul g\u00e2tului s\u0103u.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eDanseaz\u0103 bine !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Se rotir\u0103 a\u015fa o vreme, discut\u00e2nd nimicuri, apoi melodia se opri. Se preg\u0103tea s\u0103 o invite la el la mas\u0103, c\u00e2nd observ\u0103 ceva ce \u00eel f\u0103cu s\u0103 se considere norocos: o fat\u0103 st\u0103tea singur\u0103 pe ringul de dans. Partenerul ei o p\u0103r\u0103sise acolo, \u015fi ie\u015fise afar\u0103 s\u0103 vorbeasc\u0103 la celular.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCe dobitoc !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fata privea pierdut\u0103, oarecum trist\u0103, c\u0103ut\u00e2nd pe cineva cu care s\u0103 salveze situa\u0163ia.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u00cemi pare r\u0103u, dar e nevoie de mine undeva ! se scuz\u0103 el, l\u0103s\u00e2nd-o pe partenera sa la mas\u0103 de unde o luase. \u00cenainte ca ea s\u0103 poat\u0103 \u00eentreba ceva, el era deja l\u00e2ng\u0103 bruneta din mijlocul ringului.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Se pare c\u0103 a\u0163i r\u0103mas singur\u0103, domni\u015foar\u0103 …<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ah … ce ? Nu, se \u00eentoarce imediat ! r\u0103spunse ea repede, uit\u00e2ndu-se dup\u0103 partenerul ei.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Mi se pare c\u0103 \u015fi a\u015fa a trecut deja prea mult\u0103 vreme de c\u00e2nd sunte\u0163i singur\u0103 !<\/p>\n

Fata l\u0103s\u0103 capul \u00een piept. O nou\u0103 melodie \u00eencepu, \u015fi el \u00eendr\u0103zni:<\/p>\n

\u2013 Dansa\u0163i cu mine ?<\/p>\n

\u00cei \u00eentinse m\u00e2na.<\/p>\n

\u2013 De ce nu ? spuse ea mai mult pentru sine.<\/p>\n

Se lipir\u0103 unul de altul, \u015fi el nu putea s\u0103 scape de g\u00e2ndul c\u0103 ea …<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eAre ceva special ! Da\u2019 nu \u015ftiu ce anume …\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2013 Cum te cheam\u0103 ? \u00eentreb\u0103 el, apoi \u00eenlemni.<\/p>\n

Niciodat\u0103 nu \u00eentreba a\u015fa ceva. De obicei le l\u0103sa s\u0103-\u015fi dea singure numele. Sim\u0163ise c\u0103 oric\u00e2t ar fi stat l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea, fata nu l-ar fi dat de bun\u0103voie.<\/p>\n

Rolurile se schimbaser\u0103. Ea de\u0163inea acum controlul, \u015fi probabil c\u0103 nici m\u0103car nu \u015ftia acest lucru.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Elena, \u015fopti ea cu vocea tremur\u00e2nd\u0103, ca \u015fi cum ar fi fost un secret de stat. \u2013 De ce ai venit s\u0103 dansezi cu mine ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 M-am g\u00e2ndit c\u0103 nu-i st\u0103 bine unei fete s\u0103 stea singur\u0103 pe ringul de dans. Acest lucru face de ru\u015fine pe b\u0103ie\u0163ii din jurul ei. Mai ales c\u00e2nd e vorba de o fat\u0103 at\u00e2t de frumoas\u0103 ca \u015fi tine.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ah, va s\u0103 zic\u0103 ai f\u0103cut asta nu pentru mine, ci pentru voi, b\u0103ie\u0163ii ! rosti ea dojenitor.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Spre eterna mea ru\u015fine, da ! r\u0103spunse el serios, \u015fi ea pufni \u00een r\u00e2s.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Niciodat\u0103 nu \u00eenceta\u0163i s\u0103 m\u0103 uimi\u0163i cu m\u00e2ndria voastr\u0103 ! r\u00e2se ea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 A\u015fa este ! Recunosc ! Suntem pe locul doi la acest capitol !<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u015ei cine-i pe locul \u00eent\u00e2i ? se mir\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Femeile ! r\u00e2se el.<\/p>\n

Surprinz\u0103tor, \u015fi ei i se p\u0103ru comic. Continuar\u0103 s\u0103 danseze, \u015fi chiar dup\u0103 ce melodia se termin\u0103, r\u0103maser\u0103 \u00eencle\u015fta\u0163i unul de altul. El nu voia s\u0103 plece, \u015fi sim\u0163ea c\u0103 nici ea nu voia s\u0103 fie l\u0103sat\u0103 singur\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 A trecut deja mai mult timp dec\u00e2t \u00ee\u0163i ia s\u0103 por\u0163i o conversa\u0163ie la telefon ! avertiz\u0103 el.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Am \u015fi uitat de conversa\u0163ia aia ! r\u00e2se ea, calm.<\/p>\n

Apoi fata f\u0103cu ochii mari. Ca \u015fi cum realizase o mare oroare, sau ca \u015fi cum \u00ee\u015fi aduse aminte de ceva extrem de important.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce s-a-nt\u00e2mplat ? se sperie el.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Trebuie s\u0103 plec ! \u00eei spuse repede \u015fi se desprinse de el.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Stai ! Ne mai vedem ? st\u0103rui el, ca un copil mic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Poate, \u015fopti ea \u00eentorc\u00e2ndu-se spre el.<\/p>\n

\u00cei s\u0103ri \u00een g\u00e2t \u015fi \u00eel s\u0103rut\u0103 ap\u0103sat, apoi se urc\u0103 \u00eentr-un taxi \u015fi se pierdu \u00een \u00eentuneric.<\/p>\n

T\u00e2n\u0103rul r\u0103mase mut \u00een mijlocul str\u0103zii. \u00ce\u015fi pip\u0103i buzele pe care \u00eenc\u0103 mai sim\u0163ea gustul rujului ei.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eDe ea am nevoie ! \u015ei am nevoie de ea ca s\u0103 ies din rutina asta blestemat\u0103 !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00cel chema Cezar. Se \u00eentoarse la petrecere \u015fi \u00ee\u015fi petrecu restul nop\u0163ii vis\u00e2nd la ea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Se trezi diminea\u0163a, cobor\u00e2 \u00een camera de zi \u00eembr\u0103cat\u0103 \u00eentr-o pereche de pantaloni scur\u0163i roz \u015fi un maiou alb, \u015fi dup\u0103 ce \u00ee\u015fi turna un pahar de lapte, ie\u015fi pe verand\u0103, s\u0103 observe r\u0103s\u0103ritul.<\/p>\n

Formele ei curbate atr\u0103geau privirile \u00eenc\u0103 dinainte ca razele soarelui s\u0103 se reverse pe trupul ei.<\/p>\n

Dup\u0103 ce soarele \u00ee\u015fi f\u0103cu apari\u0163ia, se \u00eentoarse \u00een cas\u0103, se \u00eembr\u0103c\u0103 \u00eentr-un trening alb, \u015fi ie\u015fi afar\u0103, s\u0103 alerge. Dup\u0103 c\u00e2teva ture intr\u0103 \u00een\u0103untru, \u00ee\u015fi arunc\u0103 hainele \u00een co\u015ful din baie, apoi intr\u0103 la du\u015f.<\/p>\n

Era singur\u0103 acas\u0103. P\u0103rin\u0163ii erau la lucru.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eProbabil c\u0103 azi sunt \u00een form\u0103. I-am auzit asear\u0103 cum se regulau ca iepurii, c\u00e2nd am venit de la chef !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Nu o deranja s\u0103 \u015ftie lucrurile acestea. La o adic\u0103, erau tineri. Niciunul nu era trecut de 40 de ani.<\/p>\n

D\u0103du drumul la ap\u0103. Aceasta curgea \u00een jeturi mari peste corpul ei. Suvoaiele se uneau pe pielea ei, apoi se scindau, se prelingeau pe spate, pe s\u00e2ni, \u015fi picurau de pe sf\u00e2rcurile tari. Nu \u00een\u0163elegea de ce o excita at\u00e2t apa rece.<\/p>\n

Un prosop gros \u00eenf\u0103\u015furat \u00een jurul corpului, apoi ie\u015fi din baia aburit\u0103 scutur\u00e2ndu-\u015fi capul. Trase pe ea o pereche de blugi jerpeli\u0163i, de un albastru sp\u0103l\u0103cit \u015fi o bluz\u0103 galben\u0103, \u015fi ie\u015fi \u00een grab\u0103 pe u\u015f\u0103, cu ghiozdanul pe um\u0103r.<\/p>\n

Era clasa a XII-a, \u015fi nu prea avea altceva de f\u0103cut \u00een timpul liber dec\u00e2t s\u0103 mearg\u0103 la chefuri \u015fi s\u0103 doarm\u0103 p\u00e2n\u0103 t\u00e2rziu. Cu \u00eenv\u0103\u0163atul nu prea se omora \u2013 prindea din zbor, \u015fi era de ajuns.<\/p>\n

Ast\u0103zi \u00eens\u0103 avea ceva special \u00een program, dup\u0103-mas\u0103. O ie\u015fire cu un fost prieten care …<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eMai mult ca sigur c\u0103 vrea s\u0103 m\u0103 combine iar\u0103\u015fi ! Fraieru\u2019 ! Asta \u00eenseamn\u0103 s\u0103 nu ascul\u0163i c\u00e2nd o fat\u0103 \u00ee\u0163i vorbe\u015fte serios ! I-am spus c\u0103 nu m\u0103 despart de el dec\u00e2t pentru motive serioase, dar dac\u0103 m-am desp\u0103r\u0163it, nimic nu m\u0103 mai poate face s\u0103-l iau \u00eenapoi …\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Apoi, o petrecere la gr\u0103mad\u0103, undeva prin suburbii. Acest gen de petreceri \u00eei pl\u0103ceau ei. Erau acele petreceri unde toat\u0103 lumea dansa cu toat\u0103 lumea, to\u0163i se pip\u0103iau \u00eentre ei, \u015fi to\u0163i aveau drepturi asupra tuturor.<\/p>\n

Iar partea cea mai bun\u0103 era c\u0103 puteau da vina pe alcoolul consumat \u00een cantit\u0103\u0163i industriale.<\/p>\n

Cu toate acestea, \u00eens\u0103, avea principii pe care le respecta cu un fanatism care o mira \u015fi pe ea.<\/p>\n

\u201e1. Niciodat\u0103 s\u0103 nu la\u015fi garda jos \u00een fa\u0163a unui b\u0103iat, mai ales \u00een fa\u0163a aceluia pe care \u00eel iube\u015fti.<\/p>\n

2. Niciodat\u0103 s\u0103 nu te despar\u0163i de el din motive stupide, dar dac\u0103 o faci, s\u0103 fie pentru totdeauna.<\/p>\n

3. Distreaz\u0103-te c\u00e2t po\u0163i de mult, dar nu f\u0103 din asta o prioritate.<\/p>\n

4. Niciodat\u0103 s\u0103 nu refuzi un lucru bun.<\/p>\n

5. Niciodat\u0103 s\u0103 nu spui un lucru direct.<\/p>\n

6. Niciodat\u0103 s\u0103 nu-\u0163i \u00eencalci principiile !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cam astea erau regulile care \u00eei guvernau existen\u0163a boem\u0103, \u015fi …<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201e … ca s\u0103 fiu sincer\u0103 …\u201d medit\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

… nu o deranjau.<\/p>\n

Cei din jurul ei o cuno\u015fteau ca fiind o persoan\u0103 cu care se putea discuta absolut orice, \u00een absolut orice moment al zilei. Nu avea toane, dar \u00een zilele ei rele nu era bine s\u0103 o calci pe b\u0103t\u0103turi. \u015etia s\u0103 dea replici cu o vitez\u0103 care o uimeau \u015fi pe ea, \u015fi mai avea ciudatul obicei de a pune oamenii \u00een situa\u0163ii penibile, atunci c\u00e2nd se enerva.<\/p>\n

De aceea mul\u0163i evitau s\u0103 o \u00eenfrunte.<\/p>\n

Avea \u015fi c\u00e2teva cafteli la activ, c\u0103 doar …<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201e … nimeni nu trece prin via\u0163\u0103 f\u0103r\u0103 s-o dea sau s-o ia !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ea era de obicei cea care o d\u0103dea, dar, se \u00eent\u00e2mplase s\u0103 o mai \u015fi ia.<\/p>\n

Avea un Ford Cougar \u00een garaj, dar prefera s\u0103 mearg\u0103 pe jos.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eStatul \u00een fund \u00eel face s\u0103 creasc\u0103 !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Orele trecur\u0103 pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea repede, \u015fi brusc se pomeni \u00een fa\u0163a oglinzii, aranj\u00e2ndu-\u015fi rochia neagr\u0103, mulat\u0103 peste coapsele armonioase.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Era ora 8 seara.<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Un claxonat prelung o trezi din visare. Pe moment se dojeni c\u0103 merge cu el, \u015fi hot\u0103r\u00e2 s\u0103 \u00eel refuze, dar apoi se privi din nou \u00een oglind\u0103. Ar\u0103ta at\u00e2t de bine \u00eenc\u00e2t \u00eei veni s\u0103 se p\u0103lmuiasc\u0103 pentru acel g\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n

\u015ei mai era curioas\u0103 ce avea el s\u0103-i spun\u0103, ce texte \u00ee\u015fi preg\u0103tise.<\/p>\n

Le putea respinge u\u015for, sau \u00eei putea refuza, pur \u015fi simplu, dar curiozitatea nu \u00eei d\u0103dea pace.<\/p>\n

A\u015fa c\u0103 tr\u00e2nti u\u015fa de la camer\u0103 \u00een urma ei, \u015fi cobor\u00e2 repede treptele.<\/p>\n

\u00cent\u00e2lni z\u00e2mbetul lui, plin de sub\u00een\u0163elesuri, \u015fi i se f\u0103cu grea\u0163\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eAi futut tot, \u00eenc\u0103 de la primul pas, fraiere !\u201d g\u00e2ndi ea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hot\u0103r\u00e2 s\u0103-l fac\u0103 s\u0103-i par\u0103 r\u0103u pentru acel z\u00e2mbet. Se sim\u0163ea ca \u015fi cum ar fi violat-o. Din\u0163ii aceia albi, z\u00e2mbind triumf\u0103tori …<\/p>\n

Avea s\u0103 \u00eel fac\u0103 s\u0103 cread\u0103 c\u0103 a dat lovitura, ca apoi, \u00een final s\u0103-i taie tot elanul, \u00een stilul caracteristic doar ei, doar unei fete.<\/p>\n

Oprir\u0103 la un restaurant, dup\u0103 ce, tot drumul nu-\u015fi putuse lua palma de pe coapsa ei. Nu conta. \u00cen final avea s\u0103 regrete.<\/p>\n

Acolo, se a\u015fezar\u0103 la un separeu, iar el comand\u0103 m\u00e2care exotic\u0103 \u015fi o sticl\u0103 din cel mai bun vin al casei.<\/p>\n

Apoi, \u00ee\u015fi \u00eencepu discursul plictisitor. \u00cen acel moment ea \u00ee\u015fi dorea s\u0103 aib\u0103 un ceas de m\u00e2n\u0103, s\u0103 se poat\u0103 uita la el din cinci \u00een cinci minute, ar\u0103t\u00e2ndu-i c\u00e2t de mult o plictise\u015fte, dar …<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201e … la c\u00e2t e de prost \u015fi de \u00eeng\u00e2mfat, probabil c\u0103 nici nu ar observa !\u201d r\u00e2se \u00een sinea ei.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dup\u0103 aproape o or\u0103, o invit\u0103 la dans. \u00cens\u0103, \u00een timpul melodiei, celularul \u00eencepu s\u0103-i vibreze \u00een buzunar, a\u015fa c\u0103 se scuz\u0103 \u015fi o l\u0103s\u0103 singur\u0103 pe ring.<\/p>\n

Nici nu \u00ee\u015fi d\u0103du seama c\u00e2nd un t\u00e2n\u0103r cu ochii verzi o invit\u0103 la dans. Se pomeni c\u0103 \u00eei spune cum o cheam\u0103, purtar\u0103 o discu\u0163ie sclipitoare \u015fi u\u015for antrenant\u0103, pres\u0103rat\u0103 cu ni\u015fte glume nevinovate, apoi \u00eel s\u0103rut\u0103 pe buze \u00een v\u0103zul celui care o invitase la restaurant, \u00eens\u0103 f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 vrea, \u015fi apoi se urc\u0103 \u00eentr-un taxiu care demar\u0103 \u00een tromb\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCe dracu\u2019 fac ? Las\u0103, m\u0103car l-am l\u0103sat pe dobitocu\u2019 \u0103la cu gura c\u0103scat\u0103 ! Nu s-ar fi a\u015fteptat la asta din partea mea ! Sincer, nici eu nu m-am a\u015fteptat !\u201d r\u00e2se ea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ajuns\u0103 acas\u0103, se dezbr\u0103c\u0103 repede \u015fi \u00ee\u015fi puse hainele de petrecere: o pereche de blugi alba\u015ftri \u015fi un tricou verde-deschis mulat. Auzi un claxon nervos \u015fi ie\u015fi pe geam.<\/p>\n

\u201eFain ! Prima oar\u0103 m\u0103 las\u0103 singur\u0103 pe ringul de dans, s\u0103 vorbeasc\u0103 la telefon, acuma m\u0103 caut\u0103 acas\u0103 … Se vede c\u0103-i disperat ! \u015ei prost !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cobor\u00e2 \u00eencet treptele \u015fi ie\u015fi din cas\u0103. Se apropie de ma\u015fina lui \u015fi acesta \u00eei f\u0103cu semn s\u0103 intre \u00een\u0103untru.<\/p>\n

Fata ezit\u0103, dar \u00eentr-un final intr\u0103, \u015fi \u00eenchise portiera. El \u00eencepu s\u0103 o certe, s\u0103 o amenin\u0163e, dar ea \u00eel \u00eenfrunta f\u0103r\u0103 fric\u0103. Brusc ma\u015fina porni \u015fi se \u00eendrepta spre parcul din apropiere.<\/p>\n

Abia atunci ea \u00eencepu s\u0103-\u015fi pun\u0103 \u00eentreb\u0103ri, \u015fi pulsul i se acceler\u0103. \u00cens\u0103 nu se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103 mare lucru. El parc\u0103 ma\u015fina \u015fi \u00eencepu s\u0103 \u00eei explice c\u00e2t de mult o iubea. Ea privea \u00een gol, \u015fi brusc se auzi spun\u00e2nd:<\/p>\n

\u2013 E\u015fti un dobitoc !<\/p>\n

Apoi, deschise portiera \u015fi ie\u015fi afar\u0103, \u00eendrept\u00e2ndu-se spre cas\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCe dracu\u2019 faci ? Te-ai t\u00e2mpit ?!\u201d se \u00eentreb\u0103, sper\u00e2nd ca el s\u0103 nu vin\u0103 dup\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201ePrima dat\u0103 \u00eei faci ce ai f\u0103cut la restaurant, apoi \u00eel insul\u0163i …\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eO s\u0103-\u0163i ia capul !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Auzi cum cineva se apropie de ea, dar nu se \u00eentoarse. Sim\u0163i cum cineva o prinde de p\u0103r \u015fi o smuce\u015fte. Se zb\u0103tu, dar nu reu\u015fi mare lucru. \u00cen schimb, el o plesni peste obrazul st\u00e2ng. Lovitura fusese ca o arsur\u0103 de gradul IV. Urmar\u0103 alte palme, apoi, de nic\u0103ieri ap\u0103ru un alt t\u00e2n\u0103r care \u00eel izbi pe derbedeul care o lovea. Acesta c\u0103zu pe jos, gr\u0103mad\u0103.<\/p>\n

Era buim\u0103cit\u0103. T\u00e2n\u0103rul o \u00eentreb\u0103 dac\u0103 se simte bine, apoi se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103 ceva ce o \u015foc\u0103: ea \u00eei s\u0103ri \u00een g\u00e2t \u015fi \u00eel s\u0103rut\u0103 \u015fi pe el, cu aceea\u015fi pasiune ca \u015fi pe cel dinaintea lui. \u015ei, ca \u015fi mai \u00eenainte, fugi f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103-i dea prea multe explica\u0163ii.<\/p>\n

Ajuns\u0103 acas\u0103, lacrimile care \u00eencepur\u0103 s\u0103-i curg\u0103 \u00eenc\u0103 din parc, se transformar\u0103 \u00eentr-un pl\u00e2ns \u00een toat\u0103 regula. Se a\u015fez\u0103 tremur\u00e2nd pe patul moale \u015fi \u00ee\u015fi puse palma pe obrazul p\u0103lmuit cu sete …<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201e … de dobitocul acela !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Apoi realiz\u0103 c\u0103 s\u0103rutase \u00een seara aceea doi b\u0103ie\u0163i \u015fi nici m\u0103car nu \u015ftia cine erau. Cu toate cele \u00eent\u00e2mplate, hot\u0103r\u00e2 s\u0103 mearg\u0103 totu\u015fi la petrecerea aceea.<\/p>\n

Acolo, \u00eens\u0103, nu-\u015fi putea lua g\u00e2ndul de la toate cele \u00eent\u00e2mplate \u00een acea sear\u0103, \u015fi se pomeni s\u0103rut\u00e2nd un al treilea b\u0103iat, un brunet care era, probabil, de v\u00e2rsta ei.<\/p>\n

Dup\u0103 aceast\u0103 nou\u0103 confuzie, \u00eel l\u0103s\u0103 \u015fi pe acest din urm\u0103 pretendent s\u0103 o caute, \u015fi se \u00eendrept\u0103 spre cas\u0103.<\/p>\n

O chema Elena, \u015fi hot\u0103r\u00e2 ca dup\u0103 un somn bun s\u0103 analizeze faptele din seara aceea.<\/p>\n

\u015etiuse c\u0103 acesta va fi verdictul \u00eenc\u0103 dinainte de a se culca, dar \u00ee\u015fi propuse s\u0103-l mai dezbat\u0103. Nu avea chef de a\u015fa ceva. Oricum, nu acum. Nu avea chef s\u0103 arate recuno\u015ftiin\u0163\u0103. Nici celui care o salvase de la o b\u0103taie sor\u0103 cu moartea, nici celui care \u00eei ar\u0103tase respect \u015fi nici celui care o f\u0103cuse s\u0103 se simt\u0103 puternic\u0103.

Pe coridorul liceului cineva o apuc\u0103 de umeri \u015fi o \u00eentoarse. Era cre\u0163ul acela brunet pe care \u00eel s\u0103rutase la petrecere. Pe moment nu realiz\u0103 ce vrea, apoi el se prezent\u0103:<\/p>\n

\u2013 M\u0103 cheam\u0103 Robert ! A\u015f vrea s\u0103 st\u0103m un pic de vorb\u0103, dac\u0103 nu te superi …, \u00eentreb\u0103 el, un pic st\u00e2njenit de situa\u0163ie.<\/p>\n

\u201eA spus c\u0103 poate o s\u0103 v\u0103 mai \u00eent\u00e2lni\u0163i. Venind de la o fat\u0103 ca ea, asta \u00eenseamn\u0103 \u201eLas\u0103-m\u0103 dracu\u2019 \u00een pace !\u201d. Sau poate nu. Avea o privire ciudat\u0103, de recuno\u015ftiin\u0163\u0103. Pentru ce dracu\u2019, nu \u015ftiu !? N-am salvat-o de la nimic !\u201d r\u00e2se el, imagin\u00e2ndu-se pe un cal negru, ridic\u00e2nd-o \u00een \u015fa \u015fi fugind cu ea.<\/p>\n

Se \u00eentoarse pe partea st\u00e2ng\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u201eDeja m\u0103 scoate din starea aceea de plictiseal\u0103 \u015fi obi\u015fnuin\u0163\u0103. M\u0103 face s\u0103 stau treaz noaptea g\u00e2ndindu-m\u0103 la ea. Poate c\u0103 m-am \u00eendr\u0103gostit ! Ar fi cazul !\u201d r\u00e2se el.<\/p>\n

\u201eDe ce a trebuit s\u0103 plece a\u015fa ?!\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dar nu putea s\u0103 nu se g\u00e2ndeasc\u0103. Z\u00e2mbi.<\/p>\n

Pufni iar\u0103\u015fi, apoi se lini\u015fti. \u00ce\u015fi \u015fterse lacrimile de la ochi, apoi deveni serios.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Stai s\u0103 v\u0103d dac\u0103 am \u00een\u0163eles: ai dat de fata visurilor tale, dar nici m\u0103car nu \u015ftii cum o cheam\u0103 ? Unde m\u0103-ta ai dat peste ea ? La institut ? r\u00e2se el, apoi lu\u0103 o gur\u0103 de bere.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Bine ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cred c\u0103 i-am rupt falca …<\/p>\n

\u2013 Derbedeule ! r\u00e2se cel cu ochii verzi. \u2013 De-astea faci tu ? \u015ei ? Zi-mi, cum arat\u0103 tipa asta ? C\u00e2\u0163i ani are ? Sau n-ai apucat s-o \u00eentrebi nici asta ? r\u00e2se el.<\/p>\n

\u2013 P\u0103i, e brunet\u0103, arat\u0103 bine, se \u00eembrac\u0103 … provocator. Mi se pare c\u0103 purta ni\u015fte blugi alba\u015ftrii \u015fi un tricou verde, mulat, dar nu a\u015fa … \u00een\u0163elegi ce vreau s\u0103 spun ? Criminal\u0103, tipa !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Continu\u0103 …<\/p>\n

\u2013 Are o privire p\u0103trunz\u0103toare, \u015fi … s\u0103rut\u0103 … ap\u0103sat, cu patos, m\u0103-n\u0163elegi ce vreau s\u0103 spun ? \u00eentreb\u0103 Dominic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 De\u015fi pare greu de crezut, cunosc \u015fi eu o astfel de fat\u0103, \u015fi \u00eent\u00e2mplarea face c\u0103 \u015fi eu am cunoscut-o pe-a mea tot acum o s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2n\u0103. Tot a\u015fa, o brunet\u0103 cu privire p\u0103trunz\u0103toare \u015fi care s\u0103rut\u0103 ap\u0103sat …<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ciudat ! se mir\u0103 Dominic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu chiar. Pe-asta o chema Elena, \u015fi era \u00eembr\u0103cat\u0103 \u00eentr-o rochie de sear\u0103 neagr\u0103, mulat\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 La ce or\u0103 ai \u00eent\u00e2lnit-o ? \u00eentreb\u0103 Dominic. \u2013 Mai \u0163ii minte ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cred c\u0103 era aproape 10 jumate ! Da, cam a\u015fa ! spuse, apoi mai lu\u0103 o gur\u0103 din sticla de bere. \u2013 Tu ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Era abia trecut de miezul nop\u0163ii, spuse Dominic nep\u0103s\u0103tor.<\/p>\n

R\u0103maser\u0103 a\u015fa o vreme, apoi se privir\u0103 unul pe altul.<\/p>\n

\u2013 A, \u015fi ar mai fi ceva ! Dup\u0103 ce l-am lovit pe imbecilu\u2019 \u0103la, ea m-a s\u0103rutat, \u015fi apoi a plecat repede, f\u0103r\u0103 o vorb\u0103 ! M-a l\u0103sat a\u015fa, cu ochii \u00een lun\u0103 !<\/p>\n

Cel\u0103lalt \u00ee\u015fi ridic\u0103 privirea spre el. Apoi se aplec\u0103 peste mas\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cred c\u0103 glume\u015fti ! Spune-mi c\u0103 glume\u015fti !<\/p>\n

Dominic d\u0103du din cap negativ.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u015ei eu am p\u0103\u0163it la fel. Am stat un pic de vorb\u0103 cu ea, apoi m-a s\u0103rutat \u015fi a fugit, spun\u00e2nd c\u0103 poate ne vom mai \u00eent\u00e2lni ! Poate !<\/p>\n

Se las\u0103 iar\u0103\u015fi lini\u015ftea la masa lor.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Crezi c\u0103 ar putea fi aceea\u015fi fat\u0103 ? \u00eentreb\u0103 cel cu ochii verzi.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Intervalul de timp dintre \u00eent\u00e2lniri i-ar putea permite s\u0103 se \u00eent\u00e2lneasc\u0103 cu noi …<\/p>\n

Se f\u0103cu iar\u0103\u015fi lini\u015fte.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cum ar\u0103ta \u0103la pe care l-ai lovit ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu \u015ftiu, avea vreo 30 de ani, era chel, \u015fi … cam at\u00e2t ! r\u0103spunse Dominic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cu ce era \u00eembr\u0103cat ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 P\u0103i, asta s\u0103 \u015ftii c\u0103 a fost destul de ciudat. Prostul purta un costum de firm\u0103, negru ! De ce ?<\/p>\n

Interlocutorul s\u0103u amu\u0163ise.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce-i ? se mir\u0103 Dominic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Elena, fata asta de care \u00ee\u0163i ziceam, avea un \u00eenso\u0163itor, un partener, ca s\u0103 zic a\u015fa. \u015ei \u0103sta era chel, cam pe la 30 de ani \u015fi purta un costum negru, de firm\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Poate chiar e aceea\u015fi fat\u0103 ! concluzion\u0103 Dominic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Atunci, avem o problem\u0103 !<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u015ei care ar fi aceea, Cezare ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 D\u0103-i Cezarului ce-i al Cezarului, fiindc\u0103 \u015fi eu cred c-o iubesc pe fata aia ! De fapt, nu-i vorba c\u0103 o iubesc, fiindc\u0103 nu sunt sigur de asta, \u00eei vorba c\u0103 am nevoie de ea !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Vezi tu, Cezare, aici e o alt\u0103 chestie ciudat\u0103 ! \u015ei eu am nevoie de ea. Am sim\u0163it asta din prima clip\u0103 \u00een care am v\u0103zut-o ! scr\u00e2\u015fni Dominic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Totu\u015fi, \u00eemi vine greu s\u0103 cred c\u0103 ar putea fi aceea\u015fi fat\u0103 ! \u00ce\u0163i dai seama care sunt \u015fansele ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Da, e dubios ! r\u0103spunse Dominic cl\u0103tin\u00e2nd \u00eencet din cap.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Oricum, eu zic s\u0103 nu disper\u0103m. Suntem fra\u0163i, \u015fi dac\u0103 se bag\u0103 \u00eentre noi, eu zic c\u0103 nu merit\u0103 ! decret\u0103 Cezar.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Da, sau ai putea s\u0103 te retragi tu ! r\u00e2se Dominic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ai vrea tu ! izbucni \u015fi cel\u0103lalt \u00eentr-un r\u00e2s puternic.<\/p>\n

Terminar\u0103 de b\u0103ut berile, apoi se desp\u0103r\u0163ir\u0103, cu promisiunea s\u0103 se \u00eent\u00e2lneasc\u0103 peste c\u00e2teva zile.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Apoi realiz\u0103 ceea ce tocmai g\u00e2ndise.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCe face o femeie din tine … Nu putem tr\u0103i cu ele, da nici f\u0103r\u0103 ele ! \u015ei nici nu le putem \u00eempu\u015fca !\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00centre timp, Dominic se hot\u0103r\u00e2 s\u0103 caute casa misterioasei fete.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eNu poate fi prea departe de mine. N-a avut prea mult timp s\u0103 se schimbe \u015fi s\u0103 ajung\u0103 \u00een parc. Trebuie s\u0103 locuiasc\u0103 pe-aici pe undeva !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Apoi:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eDac\u0103 dau de ea primul, po\u0163i s-o ui\u0163i, frate ! Sper c\u0103 n-ai crezut c\u0103 \u0163i-o las !?\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Se g\u00e2ndi c\u0103 toat\u0103 demonstra\u0163ia lor de prietenie profund\u0103 de la bar nu fuseser\u0103 dec\u00e2t vorbe \u00een v\u00e2nt.

Cel pu\u0163in, el ar fi fost \u00een stare s\u0103-l trag\u0103 pe Cezar pe sfoar\u0103 pentru ea.<\/p>\n

\u015ei, spera ca Cezar s\u0103 g\u00e2ndeasc\u0103 la fel. Spera s\u0103 nu fie el singurul tr\u0103d\u0103tor al prieteniei lor.<\/p>\n

Se plimbau prin parcul de l\u00e2ng\u0103 casa lui. Acela\u015fi parc \u00een care se \u00eent\u00e2lniser\u0103 pentru prima dat\u0103. Acela\u015fi parc \u00een care el \u00ee\u015fi modificase soarta cu propriul pumn.<\/p>\n

T\u0103ceau. Pentru el, asta era semn c\u0103, \u00een sf\u00e2r\u015fit, g\u0103sise pe cineva special. Nu trebuiau s\u0103 tr\u0103nc\u0103neasc\u0103 mereu despre porc\u0103rii f\u0103r\u0103 sens, ci doar mergeau unul l\u00e2ng\u0103 altul. Se mai priveau din c\u00e2nd \u00een c\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n

Era bine.<\/p>\n

O siluet\u0103 se apropie din fa\u0163\u0103. Un t\u00e2n\u0103r cu ochii verzi.<\/p>\n

Dominic amu\u0163i. Din\u0163ii i se \u00eencle\u015ftar\u0103, \u015fi str\u00e2nse pumnul, strivind palma fragil\u0103 a Elenei.<\/p>\n

\u015ei acest Cezar fusese c\u00e2ndva cel mai bun prieten al lui Dominic. \u00cenainte ca el s\u0103 ajung\u0103 s\u0103 o \u0163in\u0103 de m\u00e2n\u0103 pe Elena.<\/p>\n

Spera s\u0103 o vad\u0103 pe misterioasa femeie fatal\u0103. Iar dac\u0103 nu, avea s\u0103 bat\u0103 din u\u015f\u0103 \u00een u\u015f\u0103, ca s\u0103 dea de ea.<\/p>\n

\u201eMerit\u0103 m\u0103car at\u00e2t ! \u015ei dac\u0103 dau de ea, \u00eei spun \u015fi lui Cezar !\u201d se am\u0103gi el.<\/p>\n

Nimic. Nici urm\u0103 de ea.<\/p>\n

Se l\u0103s\u0103 seara.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eM\u00e2ine vom recurge la un mic vicle\u015fug ! Un concurs !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Diminea\u0163\u0103, telefonul sun\u0103. Era Cezar. Voia s\u0103 se \u00eent\u00e2lneasc\u0103 cu Dominic, s\u0103 mearg\u0103 s\u0103 ia micul dejun \u00eempreun\u0103.<\/p>\n

Dominic \u00eel refuz\u0103, motiv\u00e2nd c\u0103 are ceva extrem de important de f\u0103cut, ceva care nu sufer\u0103 am\u00e2nare.<\/p>\n

\u201eO mic\u0103 minciun\u0103 nevinovat\u0103. O fac \u015fi spre binele lui …\u201d se scuz\u0103 el, \u00een sinea lui.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Se sim\u0163ea prost pentru c\u0103 trebuia s\u0103-l mint\u0103 pe Cezar.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Bun\u0103 ziua, domnule ! \u00cen casa aceasta exist\u0103 vreo fat\u0103 pe care o cheam\u0103 Elena ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 De ce ? \u00eentreb\u0103 b\u0103rbatul.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Fiindc\u0103 dac\u0103 este, sunt bucuros s\u0103 v\u0103 anun\u0163 c\u0103 a c\u00e2\u015ftigat un premiu onomastic, oferit de firma mea …<\/p>\n

O \u0163inu a\u015fa toat\u0103 ziua, \u015fi pe la ora 6 seara, ajunse plictisit pe veranda unei case cu un singur cat.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00cen fa\u0163a casei era parcat\u0103 o ma\u015fin\u0103 gri, iar la volanul ei st\u0103tea un b\u0103iat care probabil nu avea mai mult de 18 ani.<\/p>\n

Era brunet, cre\u0163, \u015fi \u00eel fix\u0103 cu ochii pe Dominic, ciudatul comis\u2013voiajor care se preg\u0103tea s\u0103 bat\u0103 la u\u015f\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cu capul \u00een piept, obosit de at\u00e2ta umblat aiurea, Dominic b\u0103tu la u\u015f\u0103, iar c\u00e2nd aceasta se deschise, \u00eentreb\u0103 acela\u015fi lucru pe care \u00eel repetase toat\u0103 ziua. Apoi \u00ee\u015fi ridic\u0103 privirea \u015fi amu\u0163i.<\/p>\n

\u00cen fa\u0163a lui st\u0103tea fata pe care o c\u0103utase \u00eentreaga zi, fata cu care adormise \u00een g\u00e2nd timp de opt zile consecutive, fata la care visase timp de opt zile consecutive.<\/p>\n

Fata \u00eel privea mut\u0103. Apoi \u00eel apuc\u0103 de \u00eencheietura de la m\u00e2n\u0103 \u015fi \u00eel trase \u00een\u0103untru, sper\u00e2nd c\u0103 b\u0103iatul din ma\u015fin\u0103 nu observase mi\u015fcarea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce dracu\u2019 cau\u0163i aici ? se mir\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Va s\u0103 zic\u0103 nu m-ai uitat !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nici vorb\u0103, da\u2019 ce cau\u0163i aici ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Am nevoie de tine ! m\u0103rturisi blondul.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Vrei s\u0103 te ajut s\u0103 mu\u0163i ceva mobil\u0103 ? Cum m-ai g\u0103sit ? se crisp\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu, la dracu\u2019, vreau s\u0103 spun c\u0103 m-am \u00eendr\u0103gostit de tine !!<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u015e\u015ft ! Mai \u00eencet ! Te-am s\u0103rutat odat\u0103 \u015fi te-ai \u00eendr\u0103gostit de mine ? Mi se pare cam exagerat ! \u0162ie nu ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Poate, dar a fost pic\u0103tura care a umplut paharul ! Oricum, m-am \u00eendr\u0103gostit de s\u0103rutul t\u0103u !<\/p>\n

Se auzi un claxon prelung din fa\u0163a casei, \u015fi fata tres\u0103ri.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Trebuie s\u0103 plec !<\/p>\n

Blondul nu zise nimic, dar o privea insistent.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ne \u00eent\u00e2lnim aici la ora 1 diminea\u0163a, bine ? \u015ei rezolv\u0103m atunci toat\u0103 chestia asta !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Pe tine te claxoneaz\u0103 ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Da.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cine-i junioru\u2019 ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Unu\u2019 care se afl\u0103 \u00een aceea\u015fi situa\u0163ie ca \u015fi tine !<\/p>\n

D\u0103du s\u0103 ias\u0103, dar el o opri.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cum te cheam\u0103 ?<\/p>\n

Ea ridic\u0103 ochii spre el \u015fi ezit\u0103. Apoi r\u0103spunse:<\/p>\n

\u2013 Elena.<\/p>\n

Ie\u015fi repede \u015fi se urc\u0103 \u00een ma\u015fin\u0103. Dominic r\u0103mase pe veranda casei \u015fi o urm\u0103ri cu privirea. O v\u0103zu s\u0103rut\u00e2ndu-l cu patos pe b\u0103iatul cre\u0163, apoi ma\u015fina porni.<\/p>\n

Era obosit\u0103, \u015fi nu avea chef de discu\u0163ii.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Mi-ai spus s\u0103 vin la ora 1. Am venit.<\/p>\n

Elena r\u00e2se, apoi se a\u015fez\u0103 \u00eencet pe prima treapt\u0103 a sc\u0103rii din fa\u0163a casei.<\/p>\n

\u00cen\u0103untru totul era vechi, masiv, \u00eennecat \u00een obscuritate. Pe margini at\u00e2rnau draperii vi\u015finii, groase, de m\u0103tase, iar sfe\u015fnice \u00eenalte cu bra\u0163e ondulate serveau lumina de la c\u00e2teva zeci de lum\u00e2n\u0103ri albe.<\/p>\n

Ferestrele \u00eenalte erau n\u0103p\u0103dite de p\u00e2nz\u0103 de p\u0103ianjen, dar acest lucru nu p\u0103ru s\u0103 o sperie.<\/p>\n

Un candelabru imens domina tavanul boltit, \u015fi sub el se afla o mas\u0103 rotund\u0103, mic\u0103, pe care erau a\u015fezate dou\u0103 farfurii albe, \u00eentinse, tac\u00e2muri \u015fi c\u00e2te o cup\u0103 de argint, iar un covor de petale de trandafiri albi, ro\u015fii \u015fi galbeni ducea p\u00e2n\u0103 la ea.<\/p>\n

Elena era \u00eenm\u0103rmurit\u0103. Nimeni nu se mai purtase astfel cu ea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCei mai mul\u0163i m\u0103 duc \u00een restaurante unde au totul la \u00eendem\u00e2n\u0103, pl\u0103tesc pentru o cin\u0103 decent\u0103 \u015fi apoi au preten\u0163ia s\u0103 le-o sug !\u201d<\/p>\n

B\u0103iatul o conduse la mas\u0103 \u015fi trase scaunul. Ea se a\u015fez\u0103, apoi \u015fi el, \u015fi din senin, din fiecare col\u0163 al unei camere \u00eencepu s\u0103 se aud\u0103 un izvor de muzic\u0103 lent\u0103, pl\u0103cut\u0103, aproape c\u0103 st\u00e2rnea somnul.<\/p>\n

\u2013 C\u00e2nd ai …, \u00eentreb\u0103 ea, dar el \u00eei f\u0103cu semn s\u0103 tac\u0103, duc\u00e2ndu-\u015fi degetul la buze.<\/p>\n

Se a\u015fez\u0103 \u015fi el, apoi, de nic\u0103ieri ap\u0103ru un picolo \u00eenalt care le aduse o sticl\u0103 de absint. Turn\u0103 \u00een pahare \u015fi se retrase, s\u0103 aduc\u0103 m\u00e2carea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Vreau s\u0103-\u0163i spun c\u0103 …, \u00eencepu iar\u0103\u015fi Elena, dar el o opri.<\/p>\n

\u2013 De ce crezi c\u0103 sim\u0163im mereu nevoia s\u0103 vorbin, s\u0103 p\u0103l\u0103vr\u0103gim despre porc\u0103rii ? De ce nu putem s\u0103 t\u0103cem dracului din gur\u0103 ? Dar, continu\u0103 te rog.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Am vrut s\u0103-\u0163i spun c\u0103 \u00eemi pare r\u0103u c\u0103 nu am apucat s\u0103-\u0163i mul\u0163umesc pentru ce ai f\u0103cut \u00een parc !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu-i nimic, \u00eemi f\u0103ceam doar datoria ! Asta, f\u0103cu el ar\u0103t\u00e2nd \u00eemprejurul s\u0103u, nu are nicio leg\u0103tur\u0103 cu scena din parc.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Dar de ce ai intervenit, totu\u015fi ? Era mai … mare ca tine, nu aveai niciun interes, a\u015fa c\u0103 … de ce ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ar fi trebuit s\u0103 m\u0103 \u00eentrebi \u201eDe a\u015f fi stat deoparte ?\u201d. Am intervenit pentru c\u0103, sincer, \u00eei ur\u0103sc pe b\u0103rba\u0163i. Pe to\u0163i. Chiar \u015fi pe cei care nu lovesc femeile. Fiindc\u0103 cei care o fac, compenseaz\u0103 \u015fi pentru ei …<\/p>\n

Elena \u00eel fixa cu ochii.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201e\u0102sta chiar nu glume\u015fte ! Are ceva … Dar poate doar face pe sensibilul cu mine, s\u0103 m\u0103 \u00eenmoaie !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Discutar\u0103 a\u015fa timp de aproape trei ore, dar ca nicic\u00e2nd, fata nu realiz\u0103 cum trecuse vremea. \u015ei \u00een tot acest timp, el nu f\u0103cuse nicio aluzie la sex, a\u015fa cum f\u0103ceau \u00een general cei cu care se \u00eent\u00e2lnea.<\/p>\n

La un moment dat, \u00eencepu s\u0103 i se fac\u0103 fric\u0103 c\u0103 el va strica totul \u00eentreb\u00e2nd-o ceva stupid despre vreo experien\u0163\u0103 sexual\u0103 de-a ei.<\/p>\n

\u00cens\u0103 \u00eentrebarea nu veni.<\/p>\n

Apoi el se ridic\u0103 \u015fi o \u00eentreb\u0103:<\/p>\n

\u2013 Drag\u0103 Elena, mi-a f\u0103cut o real\u0103 pl\u0103cere s\u0103 iau cina cu tine. Acum, dac\u0103 ai vrea s\u0103-mi faci o ultim\u0103 pl\u0103cere …<\/p>\n

\u201eNu, la dracu\u2019 ! Numai s\u0103 nu m\u0103 \u00eentrebi a\u015fa ceva ! Nu strica totul !\u201d<\/p>\n

Elena c\u0103ut\u0103 din priviri s\u0103 vad\u0103 de unde provenea muzica aceea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eO fi vreun CD player …\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Se \u00eenv\u00e2rtir\u0103, se \u00eentoarser\u0103, se lipir\u0103 unul de altul, schimbar\u0103 priviri dar niciun cuv\u00e2nt, \u015fi c\u00e2nd melodia se sf\u00e2r\u015fi, am\u00e2ndoi r\u0103maser\u0103 fa\u0163\u0103 \u00een fa\u0163\u0103, el cu m\u00e2inile pe \u015foldurile ei, iar ea cu bra\u0163ele \u00een jurul g\u00e2tului s\u0103u.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Acum ar fi cazul s\u0103 p\u0103l\u0103vr\u0103gim despre porc\u0103rii, nu ? spuse el serios, iar ea pufni \u00een r\u00e2s.<\/p>\n

\u2013 P\u0103i, nu crezi c\u0103 ar cam fi cazul s-o faci ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ba da, ai dreptate. Am tras prea mult de timp, \u015fi trebuie s\u0103 te duc acas\u0103. A\u015fa c\u0103 …<\/p>\n

\u00ce\u015fi trecu degetele prin p\u0103rul cre\u0163, \u015fi apoi \u00eenchise radioul. Soarele era aproape ro\u015fu, la orizont.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eNumai s\u0103 nu fi luat \u0163eap\u0103 !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Alung\u0103 g\u00e2ndul \u015fi vru s\u0103 ias\u0103 din ma\u015fin\u0103, c\u00e2nd observ\u0103 un t\u00e2n\u0103r \u00eembr\u0103cat de parc\u0103 ar fi fost un comis-voiajor care vindea aspiratoare. Acesta b\u0103tea la u\u015fa casei fetei cu care se \u00eent\u00e2lnea. Renun\u0163\u0103 la a mai ie\u015fi din ma\u015fin\u0103, \u015fi \u00ee\u015fi concentr\u0103 aten\u0163ia asupra personajului.<\/p>\n

U\u015fa se deschise \u015fi \u00een prag ap\u0103ru fata pe care o a\u015ftepta \u015fi el. Cei doi schimbar\u0103 o privire, apoi ea \u00eel trase \u00een\u0103untru repede.

Pe drum, v\u00e2ntul le str\u0103pungea p\u0103rul la am\u00e2ndoi. Buclele lui \u015fi \u015fuvi\u0163ele ei fluturau scurt. Geamurile ma\u015finii erau l\u0103sate.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cine era \u0103la ? \u00eentreb\u0103 cre\u0163ul.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Deja facem pe posesivul, Robert ? \u00eentreb\u0103 ea, \u00eentorc\u00e2ndu-se spre el, z\u00e2mbind.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu, dar mi s-a p\u0103rut c\u0103 nu ai fi vrut ca eu s\u0103 v\u0103 v\u0103d \u00eempreun\u0103 !<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce \u0163i-a dat ideea asta ? se mir\u0103 ea, cu un aer nevinovat.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu \u015ftiu, spuse el simplu. \u2013 Poate modul \u00een care era s\u0103-i smulgi bra\u0163ul c\u00e2nd l-ai tras \u00een\u0103untru …<\/p>\n

Fata r\u00e2se. R\u00e2sul cristalin se transform\u0103 repede \u00eentr-un hohot.<\/p>\n

Robert o privi intrigat.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Vrei s\u0103-\u0163i spun un lucru ciudat ? \u00eentreb\u0103 ea, c\u00e2nd \u00ee\u015fi termin\u0103 repertoriul.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Sigur.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Vorbeam cu el despre tine. E unul care umbl\u0103 dup\u0103 mine, \u015fi \u00eei era ciud\u0103 c\u0103 m\u0103 duc cu tine, \u015fi nu cu el. \u00cemi spunea c\u0103 \u015fi-a dat seama de ce nu vreau s\u0103 umblu cu el.<\/p>\n

Robert ciuli urechile.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Fiindc\u0103 el nu e carismatic ca \u015fi tine. C\u0103 \u015fi eu am carism\u0103, c\u0103 ne potrivim, \u015fi c\u0103 de aceea ne \u00een\u0163elegem a\u015fa de bine ! min\u0163i ea. \u2013 Ce crezi, e vreo urm\u0103 de adev\u0103r aici ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Explic\u0103 ! ceru fata.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Imediat, stai s\u0103 ies de pe principal\u0103 !<\/p>\n

Vir\u0103 la sr\u00e2nga, apoi opri la semafor dup\u0103 vreo zece metri.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u00cen primul r\u00e2nd, nu are de unde s\u0103 \u015ftie c\u0103 eu sunt carismatic ! Nici m\u0103car eu nu \u015ftiu dac\u0103 sunt. E prima oar\u0103 c\u00e2nd aflu c\u0103 am aceast\u0103 tr\u0103s\u0103tur\u0103 ! Apoi, chestia cu atrac\u0163ia e echivoc\u0103. Unii spun c\u0103 cei care se aseam\u0103n\u0103 se potrivesc, al\u0163ii, c\u0103 cei care au firi opuse se atrag !<\/p>\n

\u2013 S\u0103 \u015ftii c\u0103 spui ceva …, \u00ee\u015fi d\u0103du ea cu p\u0103rerea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Adev\u0103rul e c\u0103 \u0163ie, pardon, vou\u0103, fetelor nu v\u0103 trebuie a\u015fa ceva. Tu nu ai nevoie de carism\u0103. \u015ei \u015ftii de ce ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Abia a\u015ftept s\u0103-mi spui !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Fiindc\u0103 sunte\u0163i frumoase. Tu e\u015fti … extarordinar\u0103 ! \u015ei fiindc\u0103 ave\u0163i vagine ! Chiar dac\u0103 ai fi ur\u00e2t\u0103, undeva tot exist\u0103 unul care vrea s\u0103 \u0163i-o trag\u0103, a\u015fa c\u0103 …<\/p>\n

Fata d\u0103du din cap a aprobare.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Deci s\u0103 nu-mi fac griji, c\u0103 mereu se va g\u0103si cineva \u015fi pentru mine !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Po\u0163i fi sigur\u0103 de asta ! decret\u0103 Robert, aprinz\u00e2ndu-\u015fi o \u0163igar\u0103.<\/p>\n

Trecur\u0103 aproape 5 minute f\u0103r\u0103 ca niciunul s\u0103 nu scoat\u0103 vreo vorb\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 C\u00e2\u0163i ani ai, totu\u015fi ? \u00eencepu ea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 De ce ? Crezi c\u0103 sunt prea t\u00e2n\u0103r pentru tine ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ah, nu , doar sunt de p\u0103rere c\u0103 ai o g\u00e2ndire deferit\u0103 de tot ce am \u00eent\u00e2lnit p\u00e2n\u0103 acum !<\/p>\n

\u201eNu credeam s\u0103 \u00eenv\u0103\u0163 vreodat\u0103 ceva util de la un b\u0103iat, mai ales de la unul mai t\u00e2n\u0103r ca mine !\u201d<\/p>\n

Fata se \u00eentoarse mirat\u0103 spre el.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu \u0163i-am zis cum m\u0103 cheam\u0103 ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cum e posibil a\u015fa ceva ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu \u015ftiu, spuse el tr\u0103g\u00e2nd pentru ultima oar\u0103 din \u0163igar\u0103. O arunc\u0103 pe geam \u015fi sufl\u0103 fumul \u00eentr-o parte.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Pentru privilegiu.<\/p>\n

Intrar\u0103 \u00een\u0103untru \u015fi se a\u015fezar\u0103 la tejghea. Dup\u0103 o jum\u0103tate de or\u0103, Elena \u00eel s\u0103ruta \u015fi g\u00e2ndea:<\/p>\n

\u2013 Hei, prietene, ce mai faci ? spuse el, \u00eentinz\u00e2nd m\u00e2na c\u0103tre Dominic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Bine, tu ? Vreau s\u0103-\u0163i fac cuno\u015ftiin\u0163\u0103 cu cineva !<\/p>\n

Din cauza zgomotului \u015fi a \u00eentunericului, nu \u00ee\u015fi vedeau expresiile \u015fi nu \u00ee\u015fi auzeau nevroza din glasuri.<\/p>\n

— \u00ce\u0163i ba\u0163i joc de mine ?<\/p>\n

Cezar l\u0103s\u0103 m\u00e2na s\u0103 cad\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu \u00een\u0163eleg.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Asta e prietena mea !<\/p>\n

Cezar se f\u0103cu alb.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eDeci era aceea\u015fi fat\u0103 !\u201d g\u00e2ndi el, c\u00e2nd prin minte i se derul\u0103 discu\u0163ia lor din restaurant, cu viteza luminii.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2013 Ea nu-i de aceea\u015fi p\u0103rere, frate ! se scuz\u0103 Cezar.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu mai \u00eemi zi a\u015fa ! Tu nu e\u015fti fratele meu ! \u2018Tu-te-n gur\u0103 de tr\u0103d\u0103tor !! \u0163ip\u0103 Dominic, tr\u0103g\u00e2nd-o pe Elena \u00eenspre el.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Eu sunt tr\u0103d\u0103torul ?! se mir\u0103 Cezar.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Da ! Nu tu spuneai c\u0103 dac\u0103 se bag\u0103 \u00eentre noi, nu merit\u0103 ?! \u00eentreb\u0103 Dominic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Din c\u00e2te v\u0103d, tu ac\u0163ionezi pe la spatele meu, derbedeule ! se congestion\u0103 el.<\/p>\n

\u2013 N-am voie s\u0103 am o prieten\u0103 ?!<\/p>\n

\u2013 N-am \u015ftiut c\u0103-i prietena ta, dobitocule !! Oricum, puteai s\u0103-mi spui \u015fi mie c\u0103 umbli cu ea, mai ales c\u0103 \u0163i-am zis c\u0103 \u015fi eu o iubeam ! \u0163ip\u0103 Cezar. \u2013 De ce n-ai putut s\u0103-mi spui ? A\u015f fi \u00een\u0163eles ! Sau \u0163i-a fost fric\u0103 c\u0103 m-ar fi ales pe mine ?<\/p>\n

\u00cen clipa urm\u0103toare, Dominic se n\u0103pusti asupra prietenului s\u0103u, proptindu-i doi pumni \u00een figur\u0103. Cezar se izbi de marginea tejghelei. Din buza superioar\u0103 \u00eei curgea s\u00e2nge.<\/p>\n

\u2013 S\u0103 nu te mai v\u0103d niciodat\u0103 !! \u00eei strig\u0103 Dominic.<\/p>\n

Apoi o trase pe Elena de m\u00e2n\u0103 afar\u0103 din discotec\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce dracu\u2019 faci ? \u0102la era prietenul meu cel mai bun !<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u015ei eu de unde dracu\u2019 s\u0103 \u015ftiu asta ?!<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu asta e important, ci faptul c\u0103 intru \u00eentr-o discotec\u0103 \u015fi \u00eemi v\u0103d iubita ling\u00e2ndu-se cu altul !<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u015ei ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce-ai spus ? scr\u00e2\u015fni el, apropiindu-se de ea. \u2013 Mai spune odat\u0103 !<\/p>\n

Elena t\u0103cu.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Eu te iubesc. Tu m\u0103 iube\u015fti ? Dac\u0103 nu, spune-mi acuma ! \u00eentreb\u0103 el.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u015ei eu te iubesc ! r\u0103spunse ea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 O s\u0103 m\u0103 prefac c\u0103 nu am v\u0103zut nimic \u00een seara asta, dar … dac\u0103 se mai \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103 odat\u0103, \u00ee\u0163i jur c\u0103 te omor ! Dac\u0103 nu m\u0103 vrei, spune-mi, \u00een pula mea, \u015fi te las \u00een pace ! Dar niciodat\u0103 \u2013 fii atent\u0103 aici \u2013 niciodat\u0103 s\u0103 nu m\u0103 mai faci s\u0103 ar\u0103t ca un idiot, m-ai \u00een\u0163eles ?<\/p>\n

Elena aprob\u0103 din cap, apoi se s\u0103rutar\u0103.<\/p>\n

Ajun\u015fi acas\u0103, se dezbr\u0103car\u0103 \u015fi se b\u0103gar\u0103 \u00een pat. El \u00eencepu s-o m\u00e2ng\u00e2ie, s-o s\u0103rute …<\/p>\n

Dup\u0103 aproape o or\u0103, se ridic\u0103 transpirat de pe ea, \u015fi se duse s\u0103 fac\u0103 un du\u015f. Elena r\u0103sufl\u0103 greu, sacadat. Era epuizat\u0103. Apoi \u00eei veni o idee. Lu\u0103 celularul lui Dominic din pantalonii lui care z\u0103ceau pe podea, \u015fi copie num\u0103rul lui Cezar din memorie. \u00cel sun\u0103 de pe telefonul ei.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Alo ? r\u0103spunse el.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cezar, sunt eu, Elena, \u015fopti ea, umbl\u00e2nd \u00een chilo\u0163i prin camera \u00eentunecat\u0103. \u2013 Vreau s\u0103-\u0163i spun c\u0103 …<\/p>\n

\u2013 Alo ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Vreau s\u0103 ne \u00eent\u00e2lnim !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Acum ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 N-nu a\u015fa ! Vreau s\u0103 ne \u00eent\u00e2lnim ! sublinie ea ultimul cuv\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u015ei cu Dominic cum r\u0103m\u00e2ne ? \u00eentreb\u0103 Cezar dup\u0103 o scurt\u0103 pauz\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 O s\u0103 m\u0103 ocup eu de el ! Tu s\u0103 nu-i spui nimic, auzi ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 De ce ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 De ce, ce ? \u00eentreb\u0103 fata nedumerit\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 De ce vrei s\u0103 ne \u00eent\u00e2lnim ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Soarta …<\/p>\n

\u2013 Crezi \u00een soart\u0103 ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Tu nu ? se mir\u0103 ea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Mai degrab\u0103 \u00een hazard !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nicidecum ! Aici e soarta !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Atunci \u00eenseamn\u0103 c\u0103 nu avem ce face, nu-i a\u015fa ? Nu ne putem \u00eempotrivi !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Exact ! Te sun eu m\u00e2ine s\u0103 vorbim, bine ? Te las, c\u0103 vine. Pa ! spuse ea gr\u0103bit\u0103 \u015fi \u00eenchise \u00eenainte ca el s\u0103 poat\u0103 r\u0103spunde.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Asta n-a\u015f fi crezut-o niciodat\u0103 ! \u00ee\u015fi spuse Cezar.<\/p>\n

Apoi se tr\u00e2nti \u00een pat \u015fi g\u00e2ndi:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eS\u0103 fi fost oare soarta ?\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

R\u00e2se, dar r\u00e2sul i se \u015fterse repede de pe fa\u0163\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eOare \u015fi pe mine m\u0103 va \u00een\u015fela ?\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dar nu mai conta. Hot\u0103r\u00e2 s\u0103 se bucure de situa\u0163ie, s\u0103 profite de ea.<\/p>\n

Se \u00eent\u00e2lnea simultan cu trei tineri, \u00eei min\u0163ea pe to\u0163i cu neru\u015finare, iar apoi se culca cu ei pe r\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n

Dar nu o f\u0103cea pentru c\u0103 ar fi fost o fat\u0103 de moravuri u\u015foare, ci pentru simplu fapt c\u0103 \u00eent\u00e2lnise trei elemente de care nu se putea lipsi.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Primul dintre ei \u2013 Robert \u2013 era indispensabil pentru modul s\u0103u de a g\u00e2ndi \u015fi pentru verva sa.<\/p>\n

Al doilea \u2013 Dominic \u2013 era necesar pentru romantismul s\u0103u, \u015fi pentru modul s\u0103u semi-violent \u00een care dep\u0103\u015fea orice obstacol. El era cel t\u0103cut.<\/p>\n

Iar al treilea \u2013 Cezar \u2013 era cel inteligent, care \u015ftia mereu ce trebuie s\u0103 spun\u0103, care \u00eei oferea consolare atunci c\u00e2nd ceilal\u0163i e\u015fuau la acest capitol. Acesta \u015ftia exact c\u00e2nd s\u0103 vorbeasc\u0103 \u015fi exact c\u00e2nd s\u0103 tac\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u015ei \u00eempreun\u0103 erau imbatabili.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Partea mai grea era s\u0103 \u00eei evite pe ceilal\u0163i doi c\u00e2nd se \u00eent\u00e2lnea cu c\u00e2te unul din ei. Desigur, Cezar \u015ftia de Dominic, dar credea c\u0103 e doar ceva temporar.<\/p>\n

\u00cei instruise s\u0103 nu o viziteze neanun\u0163a\u0163i, s\u0103 nu \u00eei trimit\u0103 flori, s\u0103 nu o sune prea des \u015fi s\u0103 nu se simt\u0103 neglija\u0163i dac\u0103 s-ar fi \u00eent\u00e2mplat s\u0103 nu se vad\u0103 vreme de trei zile consecutive.<\/p>\n

A\u015fa trecur\u0103 patru luni.<\/p>\n

B\u0103ie\u0163ii respectau cu stricte\u0163e regulile, \u015fi totul mergea strun\u0103.<\/p>\n

Toat\u0103 lumea era fericit\u0103.<\/p>\n

P\u00e2n\u0103 \u00eentr-o zi, c\u00e2nd Cezar hot\u0103r\u00e2 s\u0103 \u00eel elimine pe Dominic din cadru.<\/p>\n

\u015etia c\u00e2nd aveau s\u0103 se \u00eent\u00e2lneasc\u0103 cei doi amorezi, \u015fi hot\u0103r\u00e2 s\u0103-\u015fi fac\u0103 apari\u0163ia.<\/p>\n

\u00cei urm\u0103ri \u00eentr-o zi de mar\u0163i, c\u00e2nd se plimbau prin parcul din apropiere, \u015fi trecu pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 ei, venind din partea opus\u0103.<\/p>\n

Se \u0163ineau de m\u00e2n\u0103, \u00een t\u0103cere. Elena aproape c\u0103 era s\u0103 le\u015fine la vederea lui, dar \u00ee\u015fi p\u0103str\u0103 calmul.<\/p>\n

Dominic \u00eel privi cu r\u0103ceal\u0103, dar Cezar sim\u0163i \u00een privirea sa o oarecare ur\u0103 latent\u0103, care nu disp\u0103ruse, de\u015fi nu se mai v\u0103zuser\u0103 de aproape patru luni.<\/p>\n

Trecu pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 ei, apoi \u00ee\u015fi \u00eencle\u015ft\u0103 pumnul \u015fi se \u00eentoarse.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Hei, derbedeule ! \u00eei strig\u0103 lui Dominic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cum mi-ai spus ? se \u00eentoarse acesta.<\/p>\n

\u2013 M-ai auzit !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Din c\u00e2te \u00eemi amintesc, ultima oar\u0103 c\u00e2nd ne-am \u00eent\u00e2lnit, te-am trimis acas\u0103 cu buza umflat\u0103 ! \u00eel \u00eenfrunt\u0103 blondul.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u015ei eu din c\u00e2te \u00eemi amintesc, femeia ta umbla dup\u0103 mine !<\/p>\n

Dominic amu\u0163i. Se \u00eentoarse \u00eencet spre Elena, care \u00eei f\u0103cea semn lui Cezar s\u0103 nu spun\u0103 nimic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce vrea s\u0103 spun\u0103 ? R\u0103spunde-mi, \u00een gura m\u0103-tii !! scr\u00e2\u015fni, repezindu-se la ea.<\/p>\n

\u00cen clipa urm\u0103toare, Cezar \u00eel apuc\u0103 de g\u00e2t \u015fi \u00eencepu s\u0103-l loveasc\u0103 cu sete \u00een figur\u0103. Fata interveni, \u0163ip\u00e2nd, dar Dominic era deja \u00eenvins.<\/p>\n

\u2013 A terminat-o cu tine, fraiere ! S\u0103 nu te mai v\u0103d \u00een preajma ei ! \u00eei arunc\u0103 Cezar celui care z\u0103cea pe jos cu gura spart\u0103 \u015fi ame\u0163it de lovituri.<\/p>\n

Apoi o lu\u0103 pe Elena de m\u00e2n\u0103 \u015fi plecar\u0103 repede din parc.<\/p>\n

Dominic se ridic\u0103 dup\u0103 5 minute, dar r\u0103mase, g\u00e2nditor, pe loc.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eAsta n-o s\u0103 r\u0103m\u00e2n\u0103 a\u015fa ! V\u0103 promit la am\u00e2ndoi !\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dup\u0103 aceea, se ridic\u0103 \u015fi se t\u00e2r\u00e2 p\u00e2n\u0103 la prima banc\u0103. Scoase telefonul din buzunar \u015fi form\u0103 un num\u0103r, dar nu apuc\u0103 s\u0103 apeleze. Un t\u00e2n\u0103r brunet \u015fi cre\u0163 \u00eei puse m\u00e2na pe um\u0103r:<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cine era \u0103la care te-a lovit ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Un om mort !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cred \u015fi eu ! Aia-i prietena mea ! spuse cre\u0163ul uit\u00e2ndu-se dup\u0103 ei.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Alo ? f\u0103cu el.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u00cen fa\u0163\u0103 la banca ro\u015fie, peste o or\u0103. Po\u0163i veni ? se auzi o voce sub\u0163ire.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Da.<\/p>\n

\u00cenchise.<\/p>\n

Ajuns acolo, \u00ee\u015fi roti privirea \u00een jur. Ajunsese cu 3 minute mai devreme. Elena \u00eel b\u0103tu pe um\u0103r. Se \u00eentoarse \u015fi ea \u00eei s\u0103ri \u00een bra\u0163e.<\/p>\n

Se oprir\u0103 la o teras\u0103 \u015fi comandar\u0103 c\u00e2te o cafea.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Dac\u0103 ar afla c\u0103 e\u015fti cu mine, te-ar snopi \u00een b\u0103taie ! \u015etii, nu ? o \u00eentreb\u0103 Cezar.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u00cenc\u0103 nu am dat de latura lui violent\u0103 !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu m\u0103 \u00een\u0163elege gre\u015fit, nu d\u0103 \u00een femei, dar asta nu \u00eenseamn\u0103 c\u0103 le las\u0103 s\u0103 profite de el. Nu-i prost !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nici n-a\u015f fi crezut a\u015fa ceva ! m\u0103rturisi fata.<\/p>\n

\u2013 De ce faci asta ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce anume ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Asta ! Te \u00eent\u00e2lne\u015fti cu mine, \u00eel faci s\u0103 pice de fraier … b\u0103nuiesc c\u0103 num\u0103rul meu l-ai furat din telefonul lui … Astea-s chestii pentru care oamenii ucid !<\/p>\n

O privi serios, \u015fi ea \u00eei evit\u0103 ochii.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cred c\u0103 dramatizezi prea tare ! \u00cemi pl\u0103ceai mai mult c\u00e2nd f\u0103ceai glume stupide ca s\u0103 m\u0103 faci s\u0103 uit c\u0103 am fost abandonat\u0103 pe ringul de dans !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu dramatizez, dar trebuie s\u0103 recuno\u015fti absurdul situa\u0163iei: eu sunt cel mai bun prieten al lui, iar tu m-ai sunat s\u0103 ne \u00eent\u00e2lnim dup\u0103 num\u0103rul pe care l-ai furat de la el din celular !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ai dreptate, a\u015f merita s\u0103 fiu ars\u0103 pe rug pentru asta !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Dar de ce ? Mi-a greu s\u0103 cred c\u0103 \u015fi tu sim\u0163i la fel ca \u015fi mine !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Eu te-am s\u0103rutat prima, nu ? \u0162i-am mai spus, soarta ! r\u00e2se ea. \u2013 Nu po\u0163i sc\u0103pa de ea !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Numai s\u0103 nu fie hazardul de data asta !<\/p>\n

Trecuser\u0103 trei zile de c\u00e2nd Cezar \u00eel b\u0103tuse \u00een parc.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce mama dracu\u2019 cau\u0163i aici ! Ie\u015fi \u00een m\u0103-ta afar\u0103 ! strig\u0103 Cezar de pe podea.<\/p>\n

Abia atunci observ\u0103 c\u0103 mai era cineva cu Dominic. Un b\u0103iat cre\u0163, brunet.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Avem ve\u015fti despre Elena ! continu\u0103 Dominic, trec\u00e2nd peste el. \u2013 Intr\u0103, Robert \u015fi f\u0103-te comod !<\/p>\n

Cezar se ridic\u0103 \u015fi se \u015fterse de s\u00e2nge, apoi se a\u015fez\u0103 pe un fotoliu. Nu avea rost s\u0103 se isterizeze.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Cine pula mea e\u015fti tu ? \u00eel \u00eentreb\u0103 pe t\u00e2n\u0103rul necunoscut. \u2013 \u015ei tu ce pizda m\u0103-tii vrei ? Ie\u015fi\u0163i afar\u0103 !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu te barbariza ! \u00eel \u00eenfrunt\u0103 Dominic calm. \u2013 El este Robert, \u015fi …<\/p>\n

Z\u00e2mbi. \u00ce\u015fi duse un deget la gur\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 … avem ceva pentru tine. Ceva ce s-ar putea s\u0103 nu-\u0163i plac\u0103 !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u00ce\u0163i mai aduci aminte de seara \u00een care am cunoscut-o am\u00e2ndoi pe iubita \u015fi venerata Elena ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Desigur. Cum a\u015f putea s-o uit ? Ce-i cu asta ? \u00eentreb\u0103 Cezar privindu-l pe b\u0103iat.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ei bine, Elena a mai cunoscut pe cineva \u00een seara aceea, \u015fi l-a s\u0103rutat \u015fi pe el. Cezar, \u00ee\u0163i fac cuno\u015ftiin\u0163\u0103 cu victima nr. 3 a Elenei: Robert ! spuse Dominic ar\u0103t\u00e2nd spre b\u0103iat.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Despre ce mama dracului vorbe\u015fti ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu \u015ftiai ? c\u0103sc\u0103 el ochii, a mirare. \u2013 Elena, umbl\u0103 cu mine, cu tine \u015fi … cu el ! Deodat\u0103 ! sublinie.<\/p>\n

Cezar \u00eel privi pe b\u0103iat.<\/p>\n

\u2013 A\u015fa-i tataie ! Ne-a tras-o la to\u0163i ! replic\u0103 Robert.<\/p>\n

Cezar se \u00eentoarse spre Dominic, plictisit:<\/p>\n

\u2013 Te a\u015ftep\u0163i s\u0103 te cred ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Sincer, nu, dar m\u0103 a\u015ftept s\u0103 iei \u00een considerare c\u0103 unde sunt doi, mai e loc \u015fi pentru al treilea. Te invit s\u0103 o urm\u0103rim pe Elena \u00een timpul unei \u00eent\u00e2lniri de-a lor ! Vezi tu, ea nu \u015ftie c\u0103 eu \u015ftiu de el !<\/p>\n

Cezar r\u0103mase mut. Dar parc\u0103 tot nu-i venea s\u0103 cread\u0103. A\u015fa c\u0103 hot\u0103r\u00e2 s\u0103 o urm\u0103reasc\u0103, \u00eempreun\u0103 cu Dominic, \u00een timp ce se \u00eent\u00e2lnea cu Robert.<\/p>\n

A doua zi.<\/p>\n

Priviri c\u0103scate, mi\u015fc\u0103ri lascive, atingeri, s\u0103ruturi, \u015foapte \u015fi r\u00e2sete, toate se perindau prin fa\u0163a celor doi spioni, Dominic \u015fi Cezar.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu-mi vine s\u0103 cred ! Curva dracului ! scr\u00e2\u015fni Cezar. \u2013 Frate, \u00eemi pare at\u00e2t de r\u0103u c\u0103 ne-am certat. Nu merit\u0103 ! S-a b\u0103gat \u00eentre noi, dar nici m\u0103car nu merit\u0103 !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ai avut dreptate ! \u015ei mie \u00eemi pare r\u0103u !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Eu zic s-o pedepsim pe c\u0103\u0163ea pentru chestia asta, dar s-o facem s\u0103-\u015fi doreasc\u0103 moartea !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Sau, \u015fi mai bine, s\u0103 i-o facem cadou ! propuse Dominic.<\/p>\n

A\u015fteptar\u0103 p\u00e2n\u0103 c\u00e2nd Robert se \u00eentoarse, \u015fi \u00eei explicar\u0103 ce aveau de g\u00e2nd s\u0103 fac\u0103. Lui Robert i se p\u0103ru genial.<\/p>\n

\u00cen seara aceea, intrar\u0103 to\u0163i trei la ea \u00een cas\u0103, dup\u0103 ce luminile se stinser\u0103. \u00cenainte de asta, Cezar \u015fi Robert vorbir\u0103 cu ea la celular, pe r\u00e2nd.<\/p>\n

U\u015fa nu era \u00eenchis\u0103. Urcar\u0103 p\u00e2n\u0103 \u00een fa\u0163a camerei ei.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Sta\u0163i ! \u015fopti Dominic. \u2013 Poate ne aude.<\/p>\n

\u2013 N-o s\u0103 ne aud\u0103. Doarme ca un bolovan, specific\u0103 Robert.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Tu de unde \u015ftii ? interveni Cezar.<\/p>\n

\u2013 S-a culcat cu to\u0163i, nu numai cu tine, arm\u0103sarule ! i-o \u00eentoarse Robert.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCurv\u0103 nenorocit\u0103 !\u201d oft\u0103 Cezar \u00een sine.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00cempinser\u0103 u\u015fa. Dominic s\u0103ri \u00een pat, \u015fi c\u00e2nd fata tres\u0103ri, \u00eei puse m\u00e2na la gur\u0103.<\/p>\n

Elena \u00eei privea pe cei trei b\u0103ie\u0163i din camera ei, \u015fi realiz\u0103 cu groaz\u0103 ce se \u00eent\u00e2mplase.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u015e\u015f\u015ft, \u00eei f\u0103cu semn Dominic, \u00een timp ce Cezar \u00eei ar\u0103t\u0103 un ciocan imens.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Dac\u0103 sco\u0163i un cuv\u00e2nt, o viol\u0103m pe m\u0103-ta \u00een timp ce tu \u015fi taic\u0103-tu v\u0103 uita\u0163i, apoi \u00eei spargem capul lui, \u015fi abia dup\u0103 aia te \u00eengrop\u0103m de vie, \u00eei spuse Dominic calm. \u2013 Ai \u00een\u0163eles ?<\/p>\n

Fata d\u0103du din cap c\u0103 \u201eda\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Bun. Hai s\u0103 mergem.<\/p>\n

O aruncar\u0103 \u00een portabagajul ma\u015finii lui Robert, \u015fi apoi pornir\u0103 \u00een afara ora\u015fului.<\/p>\n

Robert conducea. L\u00e2ng\u0103 el se afla Dominic, \u0163in\u00e2nt pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 el imensul ciocan, iar \u00een spate se afla Cezar, obosit \u015fi nervos, tol\u0103nit pe banchet\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Noi doi am convenit asupra motivelor, da\u2019 tu de ce dracu\u2019 o faci ? \u00eentreb\u0103 Cezar pe \u015fofer.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Fiindc\u0103 sunt un sociopat ! r\u0103spunse acesta, f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 se \u00eentoarc\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Mie-mi convine, ridic\u0103 Cezar din umeri, apoi \u00ee\u015fi aprinse o \u0163igar\u0103.<\/p>\n

A\u015fteptar\u0103 s\u0103 se fac\u0103 lumin\u0103, apoi o scoaser\u0103 pe fat\u0103 din portbagaj \u015fi o puser\u0103 s\u0103 se uite la ei, \u00een timp ce s\u0103pau o groap\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u00centre timp, mai f\u0103ceau conversa\u0163ie:<\/p>\n

\u2013 Sunt curios, c\u00e2t timp credeai c\u0103 o s-o po\u0163i duce cu to\u0163i trei, p\u00e2n\u0103 s\u0103 te descoperim ? \u00eentreb\u0103 Cezar.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ne-ai iubit m\u0103car ? Pe to\u0163i, sau numai pe unul ? continu\u0103 Robert.<\/p>\n

\u2013 De ce ai f\u0103cut asta ? \u00eentreb\u0103 Dominic.<\/p>\n

Fata pl\u00e2ngea cu sughi\u0163uri, sc\u00e2ncind p\u0103reri de r\u0103u care ar fi \u00eengenuncheat \u015fi un diavol, dar cei trei r\u0103maser\u0103 de neclintit. Acum nu mai puteau da \u00eenapoi.<\/p>\n

Dup\u0103-masa, groapa fu gata. O c\u0103ptu\u015fir\u0103 cu beton pe margini \u015fi pe fund, apoi f\u0103cur\u0103 focul. Se l\u0103s\u0103 seara \u015fi to\u0163i patru st\u0103teau \u00een jurul unei frig\u0103ri \u00een toat\u0103 regula.<\/p>\n

Nimeni nu prea vorbea. B\u0103ie\u0163ii erau pu\u015fi pe g\u00e2nduri de execu\u0163ie, iar fetei \u00eei puser\u0103 un c\u0103lu\u015f, fiindc\u0103 nu contenea cu vorba.<\/p>\n

Nici unul nu o mai considera atr\u0103g\u0103toare.<\/p>\n

\u2013 E ciudat cum \u0163i se schimb\u0103 opinia despre om atunci c\u00e2nd \u00eei vezi latura rea ! constat\u0103 Robert. \u2013 E valabil \u00een ambele situa\u0163ii, nu crede\u0163i ? \u00eei \u00eentreb\u0103 pe ceilal\u0163i trei.<\/p>\n

A doua zi, spre sear\u0103, betonul era aproape uscat, a\u015fa c\u0103 se preg\u0103tir\u0103 de final.<\/p>\n

Aveau la \u00eendem\u00e2n\u0103 o plac\u0103 de beton cu care vroiau s\u0103 acopere groapa.<\/p>\n

O luar\u0103 pe fat\u0103 \u015fi o aduser\u0103 \u00een fa\u0163a carcasei de beton din p\u0103m\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n

La vederea ei, fata \u00eencepu s\u0103 \u0163ipe, iar lacrimile \u00eei curgeau \u00een \u015fuvoaie. Se zb\u0103tea violent \u015fi haotic, iar pl\u00e2nsul \u00eei ar\u0103ta grotesc. Dar, nimic din acest repertoriu nu \u00eenduio\u015f\u0103 pe cei trei.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Elena, ai fost acuzat\u0103 de \u00eenalt\u0103 tr\u0103dare … ! \u00eencepu Robert.<\/p>\n

\u2013 … ai fost judecat\u0103 de un juriu format din victimele tale … ! continu\u0103 Cezar.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u015ei ai fost g\u0103sit\u0103 vinovat\u0103 ! \u00eencheie Dominic. \u2013 Pedeapsa este MOARTEA !<\/p>\n

La auzul acelui cuv\u00e2nt, fata \u00ee\u015fi d\u0103du ochhi peste cap \u015fi c\u0103zu pe jos. O spum\u0103 alb\u0103 \u00eei ap\u0103ru \u00een col\u0163ul gurii.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce mor\u0163ii m\u0103-sii ?! Scoate-i c\u0103lu\u015ful, trebuie s-o trezim !<\/p>\n

\u2013 Oricum o omor\u00e2m, las-o a\u015fa ! hot\u0103r\u00e2 Dominic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Nu ! Trebuie s\u0103 fie con\u015ftient\u0103 ! interveni Robert.<\/p>\n

O stropir\u0103 cu ap\u0103 \u015fi reu\u015fir\u0103 s-o fac\u0103 s\u0103-\u015fi vin\u0103 \u00een sim\u0163iri.<\/p>\n

Cezar o m\u00e2ng\u00e2ie pe fa\u0163\u0103, aranj\u00e2ndu-i p\u0103rul ud.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Apropierea mor\u0163ii te face s\u0103 vezi cine e\u015fti cu adev\u0103rat, nu-i a\u015fa ? z\u00e2mbi el.<\/p>\n

Apoi o luar\u0103 \u015fi o cobor\u00e2r\u0103 \u00een groap\u0103.<\/p>\n

Priveau to\u0163i trei \u00een morm\u00e2ntul paralelipipedic de ciment. Crepusculul monocromatic le lumina spatele. Fiecare din ei avea pe fa\u0163\u0103 o expresie de satisfac\u0163ie demonic\u0103. Aproape c\u0103 le venea s\u0103 r\u00e2d\u0103 \u00een hohote.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eC\u00e2t am suferit …\u201d g\u00e2ndi Dominic, pun\u00e2ndu-\u015fi ciocanul imens pe um\u0103r.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201e … pentru momentul \u0103sta …\u201d g\u00e2ndi \u00een acela\u015fi timp \u015fi Robert, \u015fterg\u00e2ndu-\u015fi sudoarea de pe frunte.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201e … dar imaginea asta merit\u0103 fiecare scr\u00e2\u015fnet de din\u0163i pe care l-am \u00eendurat !\u201d \u00eencheie Cezar, pun\u00e2ndu-\u015fi m\u00e2inile \u00een \u015folduri.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Se \u00eentoarser\u0103 to\u0163i spre asfin\u0163itul care \u00eenghi\u0163ea orizontul.<\/p>\n

\u2013 E ciudat ! r\u00e2se Dominic.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ce anume ?<\/p>\n

\u2013 Ca rela\u0163ia noastr\u0103 s\u0103 se sf\u00e2r\u015feasc\u0103 \u00een acelea\u015fi condi\u0163ii \u00een care a \u00eenceput !<\/p>\n

Ceilal\u0163i doi \u00eencuviin\u0163ar\u0103. Apoi se \u00eentoarser\u0103 spre morm\u00e2ntul neacoperit, pe fundul c\u0103ruia z\u0103cea fata.<\/p>\n

Era legat\u0103 la m\u00e2ini \u015fi la picioare, \u015fi avea un c\u0103lu\u015f \u00een gur\u0103. Era brunet\u0103, iar fa\u0163a pres\u0103rat\u0103 cu pistrui exprima team\u0103 \u015fi ne\u00een\u0163elegere. Privea \u00een sus, la cei trei c\u0103l\u0103i care se preg\u0103teau s-o \u00eengroape de vie. Avea privirea r\u0103v\u0103\u015fit\u0103 de durere. Din arcada st\u00e2ng\u0103 \u00eei curgea s\u00e2nge. Se lovise \u00eencerc\u00e2nd s\u0103 ias\u0103 din portbagaj.<\/p>\n

\u00cencerc\u0103 s\u0103 articuleze ceva, dar numai ni\u015fte morm\u0103ituri p\u0103r\u0103sir\u0103 g\u00e2tul ei. Cei trei b\u0103ie\u0163i s\u0103rir\u0103 \u00een groap\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCe-au de g\u00e2nd s\u0103 fac\u0103 !?\u201d se sperie ea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Asta era rezultatul sentimentelor manufacturate.<\/p>\n

Tot ce avea s\u0103 urmeze era vina ei, fiindc\u0103 ea fusese cea care iubise cu adev\u0103rat, singura care iubise cu adev\u0103rat. Ceilal\u0163i se ag\u0103\u0163aser\u0103 de o imagine trec\u0103toare, \u015fi fuseser\u0103 a\u0163\u00e2\u0163a\u0163i de … forma ei eratic\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eCulmea, \u015fi eu am f\u0103cut la fel !\u201d g\u00e2ndi ea, revoltat\u0103.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2013 Aici ne desp\u0103r\u0163im, m\u0103rturisi Dominic. \u2013 A fost … interesant ! r\u00e2nji el, apoi o s\u0103rut\u0103 pe frunte \u015fi se c\u0103\u0163\u0103r\u0103 afar\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Mi-a f\u0103cut o real\u0103 pl\u0103cere ! \u00eei spuse Cezar, apoi o s\u0103rut\u0103 \u015fi el pe obraz \u015fi ie\u015fi.<\/p>\n

\u2013 S\u0103 \u015ftii c\u0103 nu-mi pare r\u0103u de absolut niciun moment pe care l-am petrecut \u00eempreun\u0103 ! \u00eei \u015fopti Robert, \u015fi pe moment, fata crezu c\u0103 o cru\u0163ase.<\/p>\n

Apoi, t\u00e2n\u0103rul se apropie de ea \u015fi o s\u0103rut\u0103 pe buzele care str\u00e2ngeau \u00eentre ele c\u0103lu\u015ful.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Adio …<\/p>\n

Ie\u015fi \u015fi el din groapa de beton, al\u0103tur\u00e2ndu-se celorlal\u0163i doi.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Hai s\u0103 \u00eencheiem aici tot ce ne-a legat pe noi patru ! decret\u0103 el.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ceilal\u0163i apucar\u0103 placa de beton de funii \u015fi \u00eencepur\u0103 s-o trag\u0103 peste gura morm\u00e2ntului.<\/p>\n

Fata \u00eencepu s\u0103 se zbat\u0103, iar ochii ei spuneau mai multe vorbe de durere dec\u00e2t o mie de guri. O plan\u015f\u0103 de \u00eentuneric se prelingea \u00eencet pe trupul ei.<\/p>\n

Ea \u00eel privea pe brunetul cre\u0163, iar acesta \u00eei f\u0103cu cu ochiul.<\/p>\n

Apoi, totul deveni \u00eentunecat \u00een jurul ei.<\/p>\n
