FABRICA DE CIOCOLAT\u0102<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dro\u015fii. To\u0163i \u00een afar\u0103 de Marika. Nu venea cu m\u00e2ncare de acas\u0103 \u2013 se hr\u0103nea din aer, cu t\u0103ceri? C\u00e2nd suna de pauza mare, \u00eentreaga suflare a \u015fcolii era lovit\u0103 de reflexul lui Pavlov \u015fi elevii ie\u015feau \u00een curte, descojind sandvi\u015furile cu at\u00e2ta grab\u0103 \u00eenc\u00e2t mai mu\u015fcau \u015fi din celofan.
\nMarika ie\u015fea \u015fi ea, cu m\u00e2inile \u00een buzunarele sarafanului, duc\u00e2ndu-se s\u0103 se a\u0219eze pe bolovanul de sub marele dud din fundul cur\u0163ii. De ce acolo? Nu era comod, mai degrab\u0103 col\u0163uros \u015fi rece, \u00eens\u0103 din locul acela se vedea bine co\u015ful fabricii Cibo, de unde ie\u015feau rotocoalele de abur alb \u015fi, la r\u0103stimpuri mai imprevizibile dec\u00e2t o ploaie de var\u0103, \u00eennebunitorul iz de ciocolat\u0103.
\nPe Marika, ispita care \u00eei f\u0103cea pe ceilal\u0163i s\u0103 adulmece v\u0103zduhul ca o hait\u0103 de copoi h\u0103mesi\u021bi, apoi s\u0103 trag\u0103 c\u00e2teva guri de aer \u00een piept \u2013 doar s-or s\u0103tura cu mirosul \u2013 o l\u0103sa rece. La fel cum nu-i p\u0103sa dac\u0103 \u00ee\u015fi \u015fifona uniforma ori \u00ee\u015fi p\u0103ta \u015fosetele cu zeam\u0103 de dude. Ce f\u0103cea at\u00e2t de important? Nimic. Se uita la co\u015ful fabricii, s\u0103geat\u0103 de c\u0103r\u0103mid\u0103 ie\u0219ind din arcul acoperi\u015furilor \u00eengem\u0103nate ale celor dou\u0103 hale.
\nB\u0103ie\u0163i \u015fi fete se opreau l\u00e2ng\u0103 ea, o priveau c\u00e2teva clipe \u00eencerc\u00e2nd s\u0103 \u00een\u0163eleag\u0103 de ce \u00eenc\u0103lzea bolovanul, apoi ridicau din umeri \u015fi \u00ee\u015fi vedeau de ale lor. Sub soare e loc pentru fiecare \u015fi pentru piticii lui din creier…
\nNu trecea vreo pauz\u0103 \u00een care Marika s\u0103 lipseasc\u0103 de la \u00eent\u00e2lnirea cu co\u015ful fabricii. De la o vreme avea \u015fi suporteri. Ea se uita la hornul de c\u0103r\u0103mid\u0103, b\u0103ie\u0163ii clasei la ea. Azi a\u015fa, m\u00e2ine tot a\u015fa. \u00cen loc s\u0103 se plictiseasc\u0103, cum se \u00eent\u00e2mpla de obicei, unii au decis s\u0103 persevereze. Dac\u0103 Marika ar fi fost o f\u00e2nt\u00e2n\u0103 a dorin\u0163elor ar fi aruncat \u00een ea cu monezi. Cum nu era, au \u00eencercat cu vorbe \u00een doi peri, apoi cu dude, m\u0103ce\u015fe, s\u00e2mburi de cire\u015fe. D\u0103deau peal\u0103turi, de fiecare dat\u0103. Ori Marika era vr\u0103jit\u0103, ori ei nu erau urma\u0219i ai lui Wilhelm Tell.
\nR\u0103ducu avea o mul\u0163ime de defecte \u015fi ni\u0219te calit\u0103\u0163i bine ascunse, fiindc\u0103 nu le descoperisem \u00eenc\u0103. R\u0103bdarea nu era printre ele. O s\u00e2c\u00e2ise pe Marika \u00een fel \u015fi chip, iar ea nimic, stan\u0103 de piatr\u0103 precum bolovanul de sub dud. Cui \u00eei place s\u0103 fie ignorat? Nim\u0103nui. Iar lui R\u0103ducu mai pu\u0163in dec\u00e2t altora. Dup\u0103 vreo lun\u0103 \u015fi-a pierdut cump\u0103tul \u015fi a decis s\u0103 treac\u0103 la fapte.
\nC\u00e2nd f\u0103cea o ne\u00eent\u00e2mplat\u0103, R\u0103ducu nu se-ncurca, d\u0103dea cu b\u00e2ta \u00een balt\u0103. Sau \u00een canalul ce str\u0103b\u0103tea strada De Mijloc de la Valici p\u00e2n\u0103 la Bartolomeu, trec\u00e2nd prin fa\u0163a \u015fcolii noastre. P\u00e2r\u00e2ul \u00eenghesuit \u00eentre taluzuri de p\u0103m\u00e2nt n\u0103p\u0103dite de iarb\u0103 \u015fi buruieni avea o porecl\u0103 pe care o preschimbase \u00een renume: Spurcata. Albia tulbure, b\u0103ltind pe alocuri, aduna toat\u0103 scursura canalelor din ora\u015ful vechi. Mirosea \u015fi ar\u0103ta a hazna, iar \u00een jungla pitic\u0103 de pe cele dou\u0103 maluri mi\u015funau \u015fi fo\u015fg\u0103iau tot soiul de lighioane: g\u00e2ndaci, p\u0103ianjeni, \u015fop\u00e2rle, poate chiar \u015ferpi. Dar mai ales era raiul \u015fobolanilor, at\u00e2t de mari \u00eenc\u00e2t pisicile fugeau de ei \u015fi nu invers.
\n\u015ecoala 12 era pe malul st\u00e2ng al g\u00e2rlei, partea numerelor f\u0103r\u0103 so\u0163. C\u00e2nd ajungea p\u00e2n\u0103 \u00een curtea \u015fcolii, izul de mla\u015ftin\u0103 \u015fi latrine d\u0103dea piept \u00een piept cu cel de ciocolat\u0103. R\u0103ducu tr\u0103sese \u00eentr-o zi pe n\u0103ri mirosurile amestecate \u015fi c\u0103zuse la o idee. Sau \u00eel lovise drept \u00een cre\u015ftet, a\u015fa, din senin. Cu el puteam fi sigur\u0103 de un lucru: la prostii \u00eel ducea repede mintea.
\n\u015ei-a\u015fa, \u00eentr-o diminea\u0163\u0103, la prima pauz\u0103, Marika \u015fi-a g\u0103sit piatra ocupat\u0103 de un \u015fobolan. Mort. Dac\u0103 s-ar fi c\u0103\u0163\u0103rat singur, a\u015ftept\u00e2nd s\u0103 moar\u0103 de b\u0103tr\u00e2ne\u0163e, n-ar fi avut \u021beasta cr\u0103pat\u0103. Nici nu fusese omor\u00e2t acolo, ar fi fost s\u00e2nge pe piatr\u0103. Cineva \u00eel v\u00e2nase \u00een albie \u015fi-l adusese \u00een curtea \u015fcolii, a\u015fez\u00e2ndu-l pe bolovan ca pe un soclu. Cine s\u0103 fie \u00een stare de a\u015fa ceva? Marika se \u00eentreba acela\u015fi lucru \u2013 ea \u015fi to\u0163i elevii din curte, minus cei care \u00eel cuno\u015fteau pe R\u0103ducu.
\nOricum, un Oscar la categoria s\u00e2nge rece pentru Marika. Nu \u0163ipase, n-o luase la fug\u0103. \u00cencremenise de groaz\u0103? \u00cens\u0103 \u00een ochii ei nu era spaim\u0103, ci altceva. Curiozitate? Se l\u0103sase o lini\u015fte grea \u00een curte, ca \u00een careu \u00eenainte s\u0103 depun\u0103 pionierii jur\u0103m\u00e2ntul. To\u0163i se opriser\u0103 din ce f\u0103ceau \u015fi se r\u0103suciser\u0103 spre dudul sub care fata cea nou\u0103, bolovanul \u015fi jivina r\u0103m\u00e2neau la fel de nemi\u015fca\u0163i. Noi ne uitam la Marika, ea la \u015fobolan, de parc\u0103 a\u015ftepta s\u0103 \u00eenvie \u015fi s\u0103 plece d\u00e2nd repede din picioare.
\nCum \u015fobolanul nu f\u0103cea pe mortul, chiar era, Marika s-a aplecat, l-a apucat de coad\u0103 \u015fi to\u0163i s-au dat la o parte din calea ei, ca la derdelu\u015f c\u00e2nd pornea o sanie la vale f\u0103r\u0103 ca nimeni s\u0103 strige mai \u00eent\u00e2i \u201ep\u00e2rtie!\u201c. Marika \u00eenainta prin despic\u0103tura de trupuri precum Moise prin Marea Ro\u015fie, cu jivina b\u0103l\u0103ng\u0103nindu-\u015fi \u0163easta \u00eens\u00e2ngerat\u0103 pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 gleznele ei \u00een \u015fosete albe.
\n\u00cen dreptul lui R\u0103ducu s-a oprit. De unde \u015ftia c\u0103 el fusese? \u015ei ce-o s\u0103 fac\u0103? \u00centreb\u0103rile treceau prin capetele tuturor, vagoane duduind pe aceea\u0219i \u015fin\u0103. Dac\u0103 n-ar fi fost luat prin surprindere, la fel ca noi to\u0163i, Relu ar fi scos carne\u0163elul \u015fi pixul s\u0103 \u00eenceap\u0103 o list\u0103 de pariuri.
\nMarika a ridicat \u015fobolanul \u00een aer, cl\u0103tin\u00e2ndu-l ca pe un metronom din carne, oase \u015fi blan\u0103. Apoi l-a l\u0103sat s\u0103 cad\u0103 \u00eempreun\u0103 cu c\u00e2teva vorbe \u00een ungure\u015fte.
\nR\u0103ducu s-a scuturat de parc\u0103 \u00eei turnase \u00een cap ap\u0103 rece dintr-o g\u0103leat\u0103.
\n\u2013 Ce-a zis?
\n\u00cel \u00eentrebase pe colegul lui de banc\u0103, dar a auzit toat\u0103 curtea.
\n\u2013 Te roag\u0103 s\u0103-l duci la gunoi. Te vede a\u015fa, mai curajos.
\nGyuri \u0219ov\u0103ise, ceea ce nu \u00eei st\u0103tea \u00een fire. Dec\u00e2t atunci c\u00e2nd spunea una \u0219i g\u00e2ndea alta. Marika l-a privit pe traduc\u0103tor cu pleoapele \u00eengustate, de parc\u0103 i-ar fi ars \u00een treac\u0103t o palm\u0103. Apoi ochii i s-au \u00eempl\u00e2ntat \u00eentr-a lui R\u0103ducu \u015fi a rostit r\u0103spicat, \u00eentr-un grai rom\u00e2nesc f\u0103r\u0103 urm\u0103 de accent:
