20. Osza�amiaj�ca prawda

Witajcie! Notka p�no, ze wzgl�du na zmian� serwera. Zapraszam do czytania i do komentowania. A tak na marginesie - dwa komentarze to troch� ma�o motywuj�ce...


Wracali�my z powrotem do domu wujka Charliego. Brudni i zm�czeni szli�my wolno starymi uliczkami. Oboj�tnie mija�am ludzi, nie zapami�tuj�c nawet ich twarzy czy charakterystycznych rys�w. Jednak w kt�rym� momencie zwr�ci�am uwag� na wysok� dziewczyn� z kr�conymi, czarnymi w�osami, w czerwonym p�aszczu i kozaczkach, czytaj�c� na �aweczce jak�� ksi��k�. Mia�am wra�enie, �e j� sk�d� znam... Tylko sk�d? Mo�e ze szko�y? Nie... Gdy przechodzili�my ko�o niej, wydawa�o mi si�, �e podnios�a g�ow� znad ksi��ki i na mnie spojrza�a...
Gdy wr�cili�my do domu, doro�li poszli do salonu, a reszta prawdopodobnie do swoich pokoi. Zreszt� sama nie wiem. Ma�o mnie to wtedy ochodzi�o. Nie mia�am ochoty o niczym my�le�. By�am wycie�czona.
Posz�am prosto do �azienki i wzi�am gor�cy prysznic. Umy�am porz�dnie w�osy i cia�o, a m�j wygl�d znacznie si� poprawi�. Jednak co� wewn�trz mnie ci�gle si� ko�ota�o i nie dawa�o spokoju, uciekaj�c w dalszym ci�gu przed smokiem. Sama nie wiem dlaczego, ale odkr�ci�am kurek z zimn� wod�. Poczu�am jak lodowate krople sp�ywaj� po moim nagim ciele, jakby wyp�ukuj�c moje zm�czenie i �al. Odpr�y�am si� i uspokoi�am, pozwalaj�c zimnej wodzie na ca�kowite zaw�adni�cie mn� i powolne odbudowywanie harmonii mojego wn�trza.
Gdy wysz�am z �azienki, uda�am si� prosto do swojego pokoju. Przebra�am si� w czyst�, ciep�� pi�am� i wesz�am do mi�kkiego ��ka – pomimo, �e dopiero niedawno min�a trzecia po po�udniu. Czuj�c koj�cy dotyk aksamitnej po�cieli, zamkn�am oczy i odp�yn�am w krain� sn�w, kt�ra ca�kowicie przy�mi�a wszystkie moje my�li...

Szeroka polana, bardziej przypominaj�ca wrzosowisko. Pe�no wrzos�w. Ko�o podmok�ych teren�w i bagien czerwieni� si� �urawiny, niedaleko rosn� bor�wki. Pokazuj� swe kapelusze grzyby. Wiele, najrozmaitszych grzyb�w. Gdzieniegdzie rosn� k�pki dziurawc�w, powojnik�w, astr�w, chryzantem i d�bk�w. Naoko�o wiele drzew. Lecz tylko jedno szerokie, p�acz�ce: wierzba. P�acz�ca wierzba. A pod ni� – kobieta. M�oda dziewczyna oparta plecami o pie� drzewa spa�a. Jej w�skie usta by�y rozchylone. Powieki przymkni�te, rz�sy opuszczone. Jej d�ugie, czarne, kr�cone w�osy powiewa�y delikatnie na wietrze, co jaki� czas zakrywaj�c jej twarz. Ubrana by�a w czerwon�, d�ug� sukni�, wyszywan� z�ot� nici�. Otworzy�a oczy… Po jej delikatnej sk�rze zacz�y p�yn�� male�kie jak kryszta�ki �zy…

Obudzi�am si� o wp� do pi�tej, nie wiedz�c nawet o czym �ni�am. Czu�am tylko ogromny g��d. Zesz�am do kuchni, z kt�rej wydobywa� si� pi�kny zapach. Przy stole siedzia�a ca�a rodzina, �ywo rozmawiaj�c i spekuluj�c o dzisiejszych wypadkach:
- Ale ja naprawd� nie wiem co si� sta�o! – T�umaczy� si� wujek Charlie. – Od ca�ego miesi�ca, od kiedy tu jestem, nic takiego si� nie zdarzy�o! To prawda, �e ten smok nie jest do ko�ca oswojony, ale robi� post�py! Nie mam r�owego poj�cia co go rozdra�ni�o!
- Mo�e moje flesze? Ja bardzo przepraszam, naprawd� nie chcia�em, �eby one zacz�y migota�. My�la�em, �e ca�� instrukcj� ju� zrozumia�em i rozpracowa�em! – przepraszaj�co m�wi� dziadek.
- Ale� nic si� nie sta�o, tato.
- Charlie, nic si� nie sta�o?! Nie jestem g�upcem! Przecie� wiem, �e tak naprawd� mogli�my zgin��! Tym bardziej, �e te b�yski jeszcze bardziej rozz�o�ci�y smoka! Wi�c nie m�w mi, �e nic si� nie sta�o, dobrze?
- Dobrze tato, dobrze. Ale nie obwiniaj siebie. Przecia� to nie twoja wina. Nie wiedzia�e�, �e ten aparat tak zrobi. A ju� w og�le to kto m�g� przypuszcza�, �e ta bestia tak na to zareaguje?! Dobrze, �e nic nam si� nie sta�o, to dosy� gro�ny smok!
- A w�a�nie, Charlie. Mo�e opowiesz nam co� o nim? – spyta�a moja mama, stawiaj�c jednocze�nie waz� pe�n� smakowitej zupy na stole.
- O w�a�nie! Skoro ju� zafundowa�e� nam pokaz, to teraz zafunduj nam jakie� opowiadanie. – przekomarza� si� wujek Ron.
- No dobrze, dobrze. Dowiedzia�em si� o wszystkim miesi�c temu, kiedy mnie tu �ci�gn�li. Ot�, ten smok... Albo nie, zaczn� inaczej. Pami�tacie t� bajk� o smoku Wawelskim? – wszyscy bez s�owa skin�li�my twierdz�co g�owami, siorbi�c gor�c� zup� z rukoli. – Ten smok by� inny ni� wszystkie smoki, kt�re �y�y wtedy i kt�re �yj� teraz. Wywodzi si� prawdopodobnie z „rodu”, kt�ry powsta� w tym samym czasie gdy powsta�y jedne z pierwszych czarodziejskich szk� na tym �wiecie. Takich smok�w by�o siedem. Ka�dy z nich mia� charakterystyczn� cech� – potrafi�y m�wi� ludzkim g�osem. Poniewa� te zwierz�ta s� zwi�zane z naszymi czarodziejskimi szko�ami magii, istnieje podanie, �e niestety wygin� wszystkie , kiedy wszystkie najwa�niejsze szko�y zostan� zamkni�te lub zburzone... Jednak, nie do ko�ca wiemy co� pewnego o ich trybie �ycia. Tak naprawd� to ju� od nie wiadomo ilu lat my�lano, �e dawno wygin�y, gdy� stracili�my je z oczu!
- Przepraszam, ale jak mog�y wygin��, skoro, o ile moje informacje s� aktualne, a sklerozy jeszcze nie mam, �adna ze szk� nie zosta�a zamkni�ta?! – przerwa�a mu babcia. Wujek zmarszczy� brwi i odpowiedzia�:
- No i tu pojawia si� problem! Tak jak m�wi m�j szef: jest to s�k w s�katym drzewie, kt�re daje orzechy nie do zgryzienia! Rzeczywi�cie mamo, masz racj�. W�a�nie dlatego mnie tu �ci�gn�li. Abym spr�bowa� si� z nim porozumie� i co�kolwiek wybada�.
- Ale jaki to ma zwi�zek z tym smokiem w jaskini? – Spyta�am, nak�adaj�c sobie na talerz pieczon� pier� z indyka.
- Ten smok w jaskini, Roxy – t�umaczy� wujek Charlie – jest prawdopodobnie potomkiem jednego z tych siedmiu, i to tego, kt�ry niewiadomo dlaczego, w odr�nieniu od sze�ciu pozosta�ych by� bardzo agresywny, nienawidzi� ludzi, w ko�cu osiedli� si� w tej jaskini i zacz�� napada� na miasto Krak�w. Dok�adnie tak samo jak w ksi��ce.
- Wszystko pi�knie, �adnie, synu. – odezwa� si� dziadek. – Ale jak, na nakrapiane skarpetki Dumbledore’a, ten smok jest potomkiem tamtego z bajki, skoro on wybuchn��?
- Ale� Arturze, my�l racjonalnie. Przecie� potomka m�g� mie� ju� wcze�niej, przed swoj� eksplozj�. Przecie� smoki sk�adaj� jaja! Czy� nie tak, Charlie? – wyja�ni�a babcia.
- Nie mamy jeszcze ani dowod�w, ani wynik�w bada�, ale w�a�nie tak najprawdopodobniej by�o. Podobno w tej jaskini, w tej konkretnej grocie jego r�d mieszka� od pokole�, nikomu ju� potem nie robi�c krzywdy i ukrywaj�c si� przed wszystkimi. Dowodzi�yby tego resztki szkielet�w i skamienia�e skorupy jaj znalezione w tej pieczarze.
- A sk�d wiecie, �e to konkretnie TEN smok? A nie innego gatunku, na przyk�ad rogogon?
- Poniewa� ma on, tak jak sze�� pozosta�ych, charakterystyczny znak na grzbiecie: pi�cioramienn� gwiazd� w okr�gu. Poza tym rogogony s� znane do�� dobrze. Ten go nie przypomina. Naprawd� nie wiem co si� z nim sta�o! Jeszcze niedawno przesta� na nas „fuka�” i jakby z delikatn� ciekawo�ci� godn� smoka, zbli�y� si� do nas, nic jednak nie m�wi�c. A teraz, co?!
Po sko�czonym obiedzie i interesuj�cej rozmowie, mia�am ochot� troch� si� przej�� po mie�cie. Wzi�am od rodzic�w mugolskie pieni�dze i wysz�am na za�nie�on� ulic�. Wielkie p�aty �niegu sypa�y si� na moj� g�ow�. Wolnym krokiem zesz�am na rynek, usiad�am przy jakim� wolnym stoliku i zam�wi�am gor�c� czekolad� s�awnej polskiej firmy „Wedel”. Grzej�c sobie r�ce na ciep�ej szklance my�la�am o tym co si� sta�o w jaskini. I o tej dziewczynie, kt�r� sk�d� znam... Tylko sk�d?! – zastanawia�am si�. I wtedy, nie wiadomo jakim cudem, przypomnia� mi si� m�j dzisiejszy sen, dok�adnie taki sam jak za ka�dym razem, gdy mi si� �ni�. Przecie� to t� dziewczyn� dzisiaj widzia�am! T� ze snu! Poderwa�am si� od stolika, chc�c zaraz biec w tamto miejsce, gdzie j� zauwa�y�am. Potr�ci�am oczywi�cie szklank� i reszta czekolady zachlapa�a mi moj� kurtk�. O kurze �apki! Mama b�dzie z�a! Opanowa�am si�. Ale zaraz, sk�d ona si� tu wzi�a? Dok�adnie w tym samym kraju, gdzie ja teraz? O co w tym wszystkim chodzi? Chyba nie wisi nade mn� jakie� dziwne fatum, prawda?!
