[1]<\/a>. Mam\u0103-sa, mic\u0103 de statur\u0103, ar\u0103ta exact ca toate femeile din cartier pe vremea aia \u2013 deloc frumoas\u0103, dar nu ur\u00e2t\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\nDar Ovidiu, bat\u0103-l vina, era ur\u00e2t tare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar era ceva fain la Ovidiu \u0103sta. C\u00e2nd pl\u00e2ngea, nu ie\u0219ea din el dec\u00e2t o singur\u0103 lacrim\u0103. Din ochiul st\u00e2ng. \u0218i nici aia nu era o lacrim\u0103 normal\u0103. Era ro\u0219ie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La \u00eenceput, c\u00e2nd era mai mic, a crezut c\u0103 e s\u00e2nge. \u0218i el ca Isus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar nu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mai t\u00e2rziu, c\u00e2nd a mai crescut \u0219i a \u00eenv\u0103\u021bat s\u0103 recunoasc\u0103 gustul, a descoperit c\u0103 e de fapt vin. Era un vin bun. Un vin perfect chiar. Cel mai bun vin din c\u00e2te au fost f\u0103cute vreodat\u0103. De la o singur\u0103 lacrim\u0103 te umpleai de toat\u0103 bucuria nep\u0103m\u00e2nteasc\u0103 \u0219i de toat\u0103 pacea ce nu exista \u00een niciun suflet pe fa\u021ba p\u0103m\u00e2ntului, ca s\u0103 nu mai zicem de Gladiolelor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A descoperit ce se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103 c\u00e2nd, dup\u0103 o b\u0103taie zdrav\u0103n\u0103, st\u0103tea la geam, pl\u00e2ng\u00e2nd \u0219i lacrima i-a curs p\u00e2n\u0103 pe buze \u0219i de acolo i-a ajuns pe limb\u0103. Aproape instantaneu s-a umplut de o bucurie \u0219i de o lini\u0219te interioar\u0103 pe care o mie de Moldovani cu armata lor de dou\u0103 mii de pumni nu ar fi putut-o sf\u0103r\u00e2ma. \u00cenota Ovidiu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen spatele perdelei din camera mare, Ovidiu a trecut grani\u021ba raiului pe p\u0103m\u00e2nt. Pentru c\u00e2teva ore bune, Ovidiu nu numai c\u0103 a fugit de acas\u0103, dar a fost \u00een cer datorit\u0103 lacrimii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dup\u0103 ce \u0219i-a revenit \u0219i a realizat cum stau lucrurile, a \u00eenceput s\u0103 pl\u0103nuiasc\u0103 cu seriozitate evadarea de sub pumnu\u2019 de strungar a lu\u2019 tat\u0103-su.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Faza e c\u0103 a ajuns \u0219i taic\u0103-su s\u0103 se prind\u0103 de minun\u0103\u021bia lucrurilor \u0219i s\u0103 descopere comoara ce o avea \u00een cas\u0103. \u00cel b\u0103tea pe \u0103sta \u00eentr-o zi, poate mai tare ca de obicei, \u0219i lu\u2019 \u0103sta i-a sc\u0103pat lacrima din ochi, iar tat\u0103-su a v\u0103zut-o \u0219i a crezut c\u0103-i s\u00e2nge. I-a ridicat lacrima de pe obraz cu degetul ar\u0103t\u0103tor \u0219i \u0219i-a pus-o pe buze. F\u0103r\u0103 nicio explica\u021bie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dintr-odat\u0103, \u00een fa\u021ba ochilor lui Ovidiu dracu\u2019 a redevenit om. \u00centregul corp i s-a relaxat brusc. Pumnii s-au descle\u0219tat. La fel \u0219i chipul. La fel \u0219i din\u021bii. Ochii erau parc\u0103 a lu\u2019 Mo\u0219 Cr\u0103ciun. \u0218i mai mult dec\u00e2t orice, vocea \u0219i cuvintele. Omul \u0103sta i-a redevenit tat\u0103. Pentru c\u00e2teva ore, Ovidiu s-a sim\u021bit din nou copilu\u2019 \u0103la mic de vreun an jumate pe care taic\u0103-su \u00eel adora.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dup\u0103 ce a trecut efectu\u2019 lacrimii, strungaru\u2019 s-a \u00eentors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Acuma nu \u0219tiu dac\u0103 mai trebe s\u0103 \u00ee\u021bi spun eu \u021bie ce au \u00eensemnat toate astea pentru Moldovan. Neam din neamu\u2019 neamurilor lui nu gustaser\u0103 vreodat\u0103 a\u0219a ceva sau imaginat c\u0103 astfel de licori ar fi posibile \u00een lumea real\u0103. Niciun rege \u0219i nicio regin\u0103 din lumea \u00eentreag\u0103, din cet\u0103\u021bi \u0219i palate alese, cu s\u00e2nge albastru ca ceru\u2019 \u00een iulie, pe Mamut, nici ei nu aveau capacitatea m\u0103car s\u0103-\u0219i imagineze un astfel de vin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u0218i Moldovan avea sursa chiar sub nasu\u2019 lui. Astfel c\u0103, a luat din c\u0103mar\u0103 o sticl\u0103 de vin goal\u0103, pe care a lipit o h\u00e2rtie pe care a scris cu m\u00e2na lui:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lacrima lu\u2019 Ovidiu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ce e interesant e c\u0103 din acel moment, at\u00e2t Ovidiu, c\u00e2t \u0219i Moldovan au \u00eenceput s\u0103 vrea acela\u0219i lucru \u2013 bucuria lu\u2019 taic\u0103-su, sau cel pu\u021bin a\u0219a a crezut copilu\u2019. Ovidiu \u00eel vrea pe taic\u0103-su \u2013 chiar \u0219i numai pentru durata efectului lacrimii \u2013 taic\u0103-su \u0103la pe care \u0219i-l amintea el, care \u00eel iubea \u0219i \u00eei vorbea ca unui fiu, care-l ducea la plimbare, care se juca cu el \u0219i care \u00eei aducea juc\u0103rii pe care le f\u0103cea cu m\u00e2na lui la strung, c\u00e2nd venea de la lucru. Moldovan, credea Ovidiu, voia bucuria \u0219i pacea pe care acea licoare din ochiul propriului fiu i le producea. Iar \u0103sta a fost gata s\u0103 i-o ofere dup\u0103 ce a v\u0103zut ce efect a avut asupra lui.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Era o be\u021bie nep\u0103c\u0103toas\u0103, era ca un fel de pas \u00een rai, era o lic\u0103rire a vie\u021bii perfecte pe p\u0103m\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar asta \u00eensemna c\u0103 trebuia s\u0103-l bat\u0103 cel pu\u021bin o dat\u0103 pe zi, \u00een fiecare zi. Iar pentru Ovidiu \u00eensemna acceptarea zilnic\u0103 \u0219i f\u0103r\u0103 \u0219ov\u0103ire a b\u0103t\u0103ii. A trecut peste ispita de a consuma singur lacrima. A c\u00e2nt\u0103rit el c\u0103 \u00ee\u0219i dorea mai mult un tat\u0103, c\u0103 a\u0219a bucuria era mai mare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar planu\u2019 lu\u2019 Moldovan era s\u0103 umple sticla, nu s\u0103 consume lacrima.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De c\u00e2te ori \u00eel b\u0103tea, era cu sticla dup\u0103 el s\u0103 colec\u021bioneze. Sticla a schimbat planu\u2019 lu\u2019 Ovidiu. Oare taic\u0103-su aduna lacrimile pentru zile negre? Punea pe iarn\u0103? Voia s\u0103 v\u00e2nd\u0103? Ce voia s\u0103 fac\u0103?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A\u0219a a ajuns Ovidiu s\u0103 vrea s\u0103 fug\u0103 de acas\u0103 \u0219i tot astfel a descoperit Ovidiu c\u0103 dac\u0103 vrei s\u0103 opre\u0219ti o lacrim\u0103, nu vei reu\u0219i.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moldovan a p\u0103strat sticla \u00een dulapul unde \u00ee\u0219i \u021binea el sticlele cu b\u0103utur\u0103. De fiecare dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd \u00eel deschidea, \u0219i vedea sticla cu h\u00e2rtia aia pe care scria Lacrima lu\u2019 Ovidiu, dou\u0103 lacrimi transparente, nu s\u0103rate, ci amare, \u00ee\u0219i \u00eencepeau traiectoria lor paralel\u0103 \u00een jos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n[1]<\/a> Cred c\u0103 de asta era at\u00e2t \u00eenfrico\u0219\u0103tor Moldovan \u2013 c\u0103 ar\u0103ta normal. Lu\u2019 Moldovan \u00eei ie\u0219ea sufletu\u2019 pe fa\u021b\u0103 c\u00e2nd era beat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Proz\u0103 de Marius P\u0103durean<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":425,"featured_media":13712,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[2557,2510,47],"coauthors":[2556],"class_list":["post-13741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fictiune","tag-marius-padurean","tag-nr-6-2025","tag-proza"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Marius_Padurean.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/425"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=13741"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13741\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13742,"href":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13741\/revisions\/13742"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/13712"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=13741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=13741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=13741"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistafamilia.ro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcoauthors&post=13741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
