Jmenuje se John. U\u017e podle jm\u00e9na je asi jasn\u00e9, \u017ee m\u016fj \u201eklient\u201c je Angli\u010dan. P\u0159ed p\u00e1r m\u011bs\u00edci oslavil 94.\u00a0narozeniny a\u00a0bydl\u00ed v\u00a0domov\u011b d\u016fchodc\u016f. Asi to nen\u00ed \u00fapln\u011b d\u016fle\u017eit\u00e1 informace, ale pro \u00faplnost podot\u00fdk\u00e1m, \u017ee oba \u017eijeme v\u00a0Barcelon\u011b. <\/p>\n
Proto\u017ee rodina si sv\u00e9ho nejstar\u0161\u00edho \u010dlena velmi pova\u017euje a\u00a0na jeho n\u00e1zor db\u00e1, absolvovala jsem pohovor, kter\u00fd by se dal p\u0159irovnat k\u00a0profesion\u00e1ln\u00edmu v\u00fdb\u011bru na jakoukoli jinou pozici. D\u016fle\u017eit\u00fdmi krit\u00e9rii ale nebyla znalost excelovsk\u00fdch tabulek ani minul\u00e9 kari\u00e9rn\u00ed \u00fasp\u011bchy, ale ten pov\u011bstn\u00fd \u201eklik\u201c, kter\u00fd mezi dv\u011bma lidmi bu\u010f cvakne nebo ne. V\u00a0m\u00e9m p\u0159\u00edpad\u011b mezi d\u011bdulou a\u00a0mnou.<\/p>\n
Z\u00e1jemc\u016f o\u00a0nab\u00edzenou pozici spole\u010dnice bylo pr\u00fd mnoho a\u00a0po\u017eadavek jedin\u00fd. Sta\u0159\u00edka zabavit, aby se nenudil. Respektive ho n\u011bkolikr\u00e1t t\u00fddn\u011b vyt\u00e1hnout z\u00a0domova, proto\u017ee s\u00e1m u\u017e nem\u016f\u017ee a\u00a0sledovat rugby a\u00a0zpr\u00e1vy v\u00a0televizi ho po\u0159\u00e1d nebav\u00ed.<\/p>\n
Tahle rodina je v\u00a0mnoh\u00e9m jin\u00e1, ne\u017e ty, kter\u00e9 zn\u00e1m, zejm\u00e9na ze sv\u00e9ho \u017eivota v\u00a0Anglii. Tam chod\u00ed potomci do domov\u016f d\u016fchodc\u016f na n\u00e1v\u0161t\u011bvu ze slu\u0161nosti a\u00a0povinnosti sotva p\u00e1rkr\u00e1t do m\u011bs\u00edce na ned\u011bln\u00ed \u010daj. Nejsem si jist\u00e1, ale podobn\u00e1 situace mo\u017en\u00e1 panuje i\u00a0v mnoh\u00fdch \u010desk\u00fdch rodin\u00e1ch.<\/p>\n
Ne tak v\u00a0rodin\u011b Johna. Ta ho nav\u0161t\u011bvuje n\u011bkolikr\u00e1t do t\u00fddne, voz\u00ed na v\u00fdlety a\u00a0zve na v\u0161echny rodinn\u00e9 ud\u00e1losti. Ned\u00e1 se tedy \u0159\u00edct, \u017ee by si vykupovali \u0161patn\u00e9 sv\u011bdom\u00ed. Jenom necht\u011bj\u00ed, aby nebyl s\u00e1m, ani kdy\u017e mu oni zrovna spole\u010dnost d\u011blat nem\u016f\u017eou. Hezk\u00e9, \u017ee?<\/p>\n
Up\u0159\u00edmn\u011b p\u0159izn\u00e1v\u00e1m, \u017ee s\u00a0velmi star\u00fdmi lidmi \u017e\u00e1dnou zku\u0161enost nem\u00e1m. Rodi\u010de mi zem\u0159eli p\u0159\u00edli\u0161 brzy a\u00a0prarodi\u010de nem\u00e1m u\u017e od d\u011btstv\u00ed. Mo\u017en\u00e1 proto nejsem zat\u00ed\u017eena \u017e\u00e1dn\u00fdmi p\u0159edsudky a\u00a0Johna beru jako sob\u011b rovn\u00e9ho. Ba co v\u00edc. Obdivuji ho.<\/p>\n
John ve sv\u00e9m \u00factyhodn\u00e9m v\u011bku st\u00e1le m\u011b\u0159\u00ed 186cm a\u00a0pohybuje se s\u00a0chod\u00edtkem. Asi i\u00a0d\u00edky dlouh\u00fdm noh\u00e1m s\u00a0n\u00edm upaluje tak, \u017ee mu sotva sta\u010d\u00edm. Ale trochu ho podez\u00edr\u00e1m, \u017ee p\u0159ede mnou d\u011bl\u00e1 tak trochu frajera.<\/p>\n
Jednou gentleman, i\u00a0po devades\u00e1tce gentleman. John nikdy nezapomene zhodnotit m\u00e9 \u0161aty a\u00a0vlasy a\u00a0komentuje, kdy\u017e p\u0159ijdu v\u00a0n\u011b\u010dem, co jsem u\u017e n\u011bkdy na sob\u011b m\u011bla. Sta\u0159\u00edk m\u011b tak udr\u017euje v\u00a0pohotovosti.<\/p>\n
John m\u00e1 v\u0161echny sv\u00e9 zuby, \u017e\u00e1dn\u00e9 vyndavac\u00ed prot\u00e9zy. Sice jsou trochu za\u017eloutl\u00e9, ale jeho. O\u010di u\u017e ke \u010dten\u00ed moc neslou\u017e\u00ed, tak\u017ee klasick\u00e9 knihy nahradily audioknihy. Na d\u00e1lku ale vid\u00ed l\u00e9pe ne\u017e j\u00e1 a\u00a0k\u0159i\u010det do ucha mu taky nemus\u00edm, proto\u017ee sly\u0161\u00ed velmi dob\u0159e.<\/p>\n
I ve sv\u00e9m v\u011bku je \u0161tram\u00e1k, \u017e\u00e1dn\u00fd o\u0161unt\u011bl\u00fd d\u011bda v\u00a0man\u017eestr\u00e1c\u00edch a\u00a0hu\u010dkou na hlav\u011b. John nos\u00ed ve vedru trendy kra\u0165asy, kecky a\u00a0na\u017eehlen\u00e9 tri\u010dko s\u00a0l\u00edme\u010dkem a\u00a0hezky von\u00ed. Nev\u00edm, jestli to tak d\u011bl\u00e1 pravideln\u011b, ale p\u0159ed mou n\u00e1v\u0161t\u011bvou si v\u017edycky st\u0159\u00edkne trochu kol\u00ednsk\u00e9.<\/p>\n
V\u00a0prav\u00e9 kapse kalhot m\u00e1 pen\u011b\u017eenku a\u00a0v lev\u00e9 mobil. Pravda, n\u011bkdy s\u00a0vyta\u017een\u00edm pen\u011b\u017eenky neposlu\u0161n\u00fdmi prsty z\u00e1pas\u00ed, kdy\u017e chce zaplatit \u00fatratu kartou, a\u00a0j\u00e1 mu mus\u00edm pomoct. Rozpustile na m\u011b mrkne a\u00a0zav\u00fdskne, kdy\u017e str\u010d\u00edm ruku hluboko do kapsy, abych pen\u011b\u017eenku vylovila. Po\u0159\u00e1d je s\u00a0n\u00edm legrace.<\/p>\n
John chod\u00ed ka\u017ed\u00fd den do posilovny, kterou maj\u00ed v\u00a0domov\u011b d\u016fchodc\u016f, a\u00a0je\u0161t\u011b cvi\u010d\u00ed ve sv\u00e9m pokoji. Pr\u00fd se chce zbavit chod\u00edtka a\u00a0za\u010d\u00edt pou\u017e\u00edvat jenom h\u016flku. Zkr\u00e1tka si mysl\u00ed, \u017ee b\u011bh \u010dasu se mu n\u011bjak\u00fdm z\u00e1zrakem poda\u0159\u00ed oto\u010dit. Stabilita ale nen\u00ed jeho silnou str\u00e1nkou a\u00a0bystr\u00e1 mysl, kterou by mu mohli z\u00e1vid\u011bt o\u00a0des\u00edtky let mlad\u0161\u00ed lid\u00e9, s\u00a0t\u011blem bohu\u017eel nejsou v\u00a0rovnov\u00e1ze.<\/p>\n
Proto Johna tak tro\u0161ku \u0161id\u00edm. P\u0159ed ve\u010de\u0159\u00ed si toti\u017e r\u00e1d zajde na pivo. Netu\u0161\u00ed, \u017ee mu v\u00a0mexick\u00e9m baru, kam spolu \u010dasto chod\u00edme, nal\u00e9vaj\u00ed nealkoholick\u00e9, proto\u017ee m\u00e1m s\u00a0obsluhou tajnou dohodu. Je radost pohled\u011bt, kdy\u017e vezme z\u00e1libn\u011b do ruky orosenou sklenici a\u00a0po\u017eitk\u00e1\u0159sky se napije. Za jeho bla\u017een\u00fd \u00fasm\u011bv trocha l\u017ei stoj\u00ed. A\u00a0hlavn\u011b za pocit, \u017ee dojdeme bezpe\u010dn\u011b zp\u00e1tky do jeho domova.<\/p>\n
N\u011bkdy z\u016fstaneme i\u00a0na ve\u010de\u0159i. John m\u00e1 krom\u011b spl\u00e1vku i\u00a0dobr\u00fd apetit. Je mu trapn\u00e9, \u017ee mu porci trochu nakr\u00e1j\u00edm, aby si mohl jenom nab\u00edrat vidli\u010dkou. Jeho mu\u017estv\u00ed t\u00edm trp\u00ed. T\u011blesn\u00e9 nedostate\u010dnosti jsou jedin\u00e9 zdravotn\u00ed nep\u0159\u00edjemnosti, kter\u00e9 ho za v\u00edc ne\u017e devades\u00e1t let potkaly, a\u00a0on se s\u00a0postupnou fyzickou degradac\u00ed nechce sm\u00ed\u0159it.<\/p>\n
John si zkr\u00e1tka nechce p\u0159ipustit, \u017ee je star\u00fd. Respektive, \u017ee jeho t\u011blo je star\u00e9, proto\u017ee hlava rozhodn\u011b nen\u00ed. Pamatuje si nejenom to, co se odehr\u00e1lo za druh\u00e9 sv\u011btov\u00e9 v\u00e1lky a\u00a0jak se sezn\u00e1mil s\u00a0nebo\u017ekou man\u017eelkou, ale s\u00a0b\u0159itk\u00fdm anglick\u00fdm humorem komentuje v\u0161echno, co se pr\u00e1v\u011b d\u011bje ve sv\u011bt\u011b, v\u00a0jeho \u017eivot\u011b, ale i\u00a0v m\u00e9m.<\/p>\n
John dok\u00e1\u017ee vyjmenovat hlavn\u00ed indick\u00e9 kasty, v\u0161echna \u0161pan\u011blsk\u00e1 poho\u0159\u00ed dle geografick\u00e9 polohy, fotbalov\u00e9 v\u00fdsledky a\u00a0na po\u017e\u00e1d\u00e1n\u00ed rozebere sou\u010dasnou i\u00a0historickou politickou situaci ve sv\u011bt\u011b. A\u00a0kdy\u017e se ve\u010der nud\u00ed, vyt\u00e1hne mobil a\u00a0zavol\u00e1 mi, aby se pozeptal na Belindu. To je m\u016fj pes. Na tla\u010d\u00edtka sice moc nevid\u00ed, ale vyto\u010dit m\u00e9 \u010d\u00edslo mu \u017e\u00e1dnou pr\u00e1ci ned\u00e1. Prost\u011b po\u017e\u00e1d\u00e1 Siri, aby mi zavolala.<\/p>\n
Nejsmutn\u011bj\u0161\u00ed na jeho situaci je asi ztr\u00e1ta iluz\u00ed v\u00a0rozporu s\u00a0v\u016fl\u00ed a\u00a0chut\u00ed d\u011blat v\u0161e, co u\u017e prost\u011b nejde. A\u00a0j\u00e1 m\u00e1m b\u00fdt tou, kter\u00e1 mu m\u00e1 iluze br\u00e1t. John si nechce p\u0159ipustit, \u017ee n\u011bkter\u00e9 v\u011bci u\u017e spolu prost\u011b d\u011blat nem\u016f\u017eeme. A\u00a0t\u00edm nem\u00e1m na mysli \u017e\u00e1dn\u00e9 intimn\u00ed z\u00e1le\u017eitosti, proto\u017ee n\u00e1\u0161 vztah je \u010dist\u011b p\u0159\u00e1telsk\u00fd. Na co ale ve skrytu du\u0161e mysl\u00ed, to netu\u0161\u00edm.<\/p>\n
Nem\u016f\u017eeme t\u0159eba j\u00edt na pl\u00e1\u017e, lehnout si na deku, opalovat se a\u00a0sko\u010dit do mo\u0159e. Proch\u00e1zet se dlouho po pob\u0159e\u017e\u00ed, odjet na prodlou\u017een\u00fd v\u00edkend a\u00a0j\u00edt si zatan\u010dit. Doj\u00edt vyven\u010dit psa, uva\u0159it ve\u010de\u0159i nebo prost\u011b jen vyj\u00edt schody do prvn\u00edho patra.<\/p>\n
John se ale dr\u017e\u00ed. I\u00a0kdy\u017e si ze sv\u00e9ho fyzick\u00e9ho stavu d\u011bl\u00e1 p\u011bkn\u011b po anglicku legraci, v\u00edm, \u017ee uvnit\u0159 ho realita bol\u00ed. Truchlit ale nen\u00ed pro\u010d. D\u016fle\u017eit\u00e9 jsou pl\u00e1ny a\u00a0m\u00edt se na co t\u011b\u0161it. A\u00a0to te\u010f m\u00e1me my oba a\u00a0na spole\u010dn\u00e9 chv\u00edle se t\u011b\u0161\u00edme. <\/p>\n
P\u0159\u00ed\u0161t\u00ed t\u00fdden jedeme do ne p\u0159\u00edli\u0161 zn\u00e1m\u00e9ho Gaud\u00edho muzea, kam bych se sama asi nevypravila. Tax\u00edk n\u00e1s doveze tam i\u00a0zp\u00e1tky a\u00a0chod\u00edtko m\u00e1 seda\u010dku, kdy\u017e u\u017e jsou nohy unaven\u00e9 a\u00a0John si pot\u0159ebuje na chvilku odpo\u010dinout. A\u00a0maj\u00ed tam i\u00a0kav\u00e1rnu. <\/p>\n
V\u00a0pl\u00e1nu m\u00e1me tak\u00e9 prav\u00fd anglick\u00fd ned\u011bln\u00ed ob\u011bd, neboli Sunday roast, v\u00fdlet do z\u00e1bavn\u00edho parku na ho\u0159e Tibidabo a\u00a0u\u017e jsme objednali l\u00edstky na jazzov\u00fd koncert v\u00a0jednom m\u00edstn\u00edm hotelu.<\/p>\n
Je mnoho aktivit, kter\u00e9 spolu m\u016f\u017eeme podnikat. N\u00e1\u0161 seznam je dlouh\u00fd, stejn\u011b jako moje kari\u00e9ra spole\u010dnice, jak m\u011b ujistil John. Jeho maminka um\u0159ela dva t\u00fddny p\u0159ed stovkou a\u00a0do posledn\u00edho dechu byla nadstandardn\u011b \u010dipern\u00e1. A\u00a0John m\u00e1 v\u00a0pl\u00e1nu ji p\u0159ekonat.<\/p>\n
Pr\u00e1ce je fajn, kdy\u017e v\u00e1s bav\u00ed a\u00a0d\u00e1v\u00e1 smysl.
