\nDievs ir teicis \u2013 tev neb\u016bs t\u0101 dar\u012bt? Vai Tu gribi teikt, ka cit\u0101di to dar\u012btu, bet

Taj\u0101 skumjaj\u0101 dien\u0101, kad nobeidz\u0101s m\u016bsu v\u0101cu dogs, m\u0113s par mierin\u0101jumu
\nieg\u0101d\u0101j\u0101mies ang\u013cu doga kuc\u0113nu. Lai gan tagad Mollija, k\u0101 m\u0113s vi\u0146u nosauc\u0101m,

\nkur Mollija \u0101tri vien izr\u0101d\u012bja nevald\u0101mu apet\u012bti uz m\u016bsu hibiskro\u017eu kr\u016bmu

Sunene dr\u012bz vien aptv\u0113ra, ka mums nepavisam nepat\u012bk skat\u012bties, k\u0101 vi\u0146a
\nskraida ap baseinu, skaisto ziedlapi\u0146u atliek\u0101m kar\u0101jamies pie vi\u0146as purna.
\nPak\u0101peniski ievies\u0101s noteikums, ka vi\u0146a pat nedr\u012bkst pieskarties \u0161\u012bm k\u0101rdino-
\n\u0161aj\u0101m pu\u0137\u0113m.<\/p>\n
Mollija ir \u013coti m\u012b\u013c\u0161 suns un, \u0161\u0137iet, \u013coti dedz\u012bgi v\u0113las m\u016bs iepriecin\u0101t. Apjau\u0161ot,
\nka ir rad\u012bjusi m\u016bsos jelk\u0101du nepatiku, vi\u0146a izskat\u0101s tik nom\u0101kta. Ar to pietika,
\nlai vi\u0146a nep\u0101rk\u0101ptu \u0161o noteikumu. Tas ir, kam\u0113r vi\u0146ai lik\u0101s, ka m\u0113s skat\u0101mies!
\nToties, kad Mollija iev\u0113roja, ka esam ieg\u0101ju\u0161i m\u0101j\u0101, nekas vi\u0146u netrauc\u0113ja doties
\natpaka\u013c un no jauna uzbrukt jaukaj\u0101m roz\u0113m.<\/p>\n
Kad vien to redz\u0113j\u0101m pa logu, uzreiz skr\u0113j\u0101m \u0101r\u0101 un atg\u0101din\u0101j\u0101m vi\u0146ai
\npar aizliegumu. Mums nevajadz\u0113ja to atk\u0101rtot daudz rei\u017eu, lai Mollijai ataustu
\ngaisma, ka pat tad, kad vi\u0146a m\u016bs neredz, ik reizi, kad vi\u0146a p\u0101rk\u0101ps noteikumus,
\nm\u0113s vienalga nez no kurienes uzrad\u012bsimies. Varb\u016bt vi\u0146a iev\u0113roja m\u016bs st\u0101vam
\naiz loga?<\/p>\n
Nu jau tikai retumis redzam vi\u0146u s\u0113\u017eam pie hibiskro\u017eu kr\u016bma \u2013 tikai v\u0113-
\nrojot gardos ziedus. Laiku pa laikam vi\u0146a paskat\u0101s p\u0101r plecu uz m\u0101jas logiem,
\ncenzdam\u0101s saskat\u012bt, vai m\u0113s vi\u0146u v\u0113l aizvien v\u0113rojam.
\nM\u0113s neceram, ka Mollija visu p\u0101rdom\u0101s un pati nolems, ka nav j\u0113gas iz-
\nn\u012bcin\u0101t rozes. Mums pietiek ar to, ka vi\u0146a mums paklausa aiz m\u012blest\u012bbas un
\nv\u0113lmes m\u016bs iepriecin\u0101t.<\/p>\n
Tom\u0113r Dievs b\u016btu visai v\u012blies, ja vi\u0146a sapr\u0101t\u012bgie b\u0113rni klaus\u012btu Vi\u0146am k\u0101
\nm\u012blo\u0161i, labi dres\u0113ti su\u0146i.<\/p>\n
K\u0101p\u0113c tu t\u012bri zobus?<\/p>\n
Kad biju mazs, man bija j\u0101dala istaba ar saviem br\u0101\u013ciem. Katru vakaru m\u0101te
\nien\u0101ca mums sak\u0101rtot segas. St\u0101vot pie m\u016bsu gult\u0101m, vi\u0146a bie\u017ei vien pajaut\u0101-
\nja: \u201cVai tu piel\u016bdzi Dievu? Vai esi las\u012bjis B\u012bbeli? Vai nomazg\u0101ji kaklu? Vai esi
\nizt\u012br\u012bjis zobus?\u201d Ja atbilde bija \u2018n\u0113\u2019, m\u0101te piepras\u012bja, lai tas tiktu izdar\u012bts, pirms
\ndodos pie miera.<\/p>\n
Tolaik galvenais iemesls, k\u0101p\u0113c t\u012br\u012bju zobus, bija tas, ka m\u0101te to lika. Es vi\u0146u
\nm\u012bl\u0113ju un v\u0113l\u0113jos vi\u0146as atzin\u012bbu. Pie tam, ja es izr\u0101d\u012btu dump\u012bgu attieksmi, tas,
\niesp\u0113jams, noz\u012bm\u0113tu v\u0113l vienu pam\u0101c\u012bbu virkni uz trepju apak\u0161\u0113j\u0101 pak\u0101piena.
\nToties tagad, kad esmu paaudzies, man nav vajadz\u012bbas p\u0113c k\u0101da, kas liktu
\nt\u012br\u012bt zobus. Man tas \u0161\u0137iet tik sapr\u0101t\u012bgi, un pie tam es zinu, kas notiks, ja zobus
\nnet\u012br\u012b\u0161u. Ik reizi, kad apmekl\u0113ju savu draugu zob\u0101rstu, atkal un atkal izlasu neatvair\u0101mo plak\u0101tu uz kabineta sienas: \u201cJums j\u0101t\u012bra tikai tie zobi, kurus v\u0113-
\nlaties patur\u0113t!\u201d<\/p>\n
Ja mana m\u0101te atkal par\u0101d\u012btos pie manas gultas un v\u0113lreiz uzdotu tos pa-
\n\u0161us jaut\u0101jumus, vai, j\u016bsupr\u0101t, es purpin\u0101tu: \u201cTe nu m\u0113s esam, atkal zem liku-
\nma…\u201d?<\/p>\n
N\u0113, man b\u016btu prieks dzird\u0113t vi\u0146u vaic\u0101jam: \u201cGrehem, vai esi izt\u012br\u012bjis zobus?\u201d
\nEs v\u0113l\u0113tos pateikties vi\u0146ai par tiem gadiem, kad vi\u0146a lika man t\u012br\u012bt zobus. Jo \u0161\u012b
