I was walking through Prizren to Tirana, when on the road a man with his shirt half unbuttoned was waving his hands like the one who orients the plane when it stops on the runway.
I continued on the road, while from behind a white car with civilian license plates signaled me to stop and I stopped. Two policemen rushed down from it. That dismembered slave had been a policeman.
- I told them sorry, but I didn't take them for police.
- You exceeded the speed.
- I'm sorry, but I didn't see the board.
- You had it at the roundabout.
- I haven't seen it, sorry.
- We don't need anything - he said distraught.
-Okay, set the fine, what should I do now?
- Why didn't you stop - he said again, distraught?
-Ty s’të ndaloj edhe sikur një mijë herë të më dalësh përpara - i thash. Ku ta di unë që ti je polic, pa kapele, makinë pa logo policie, pa tabelë, i zbërthyer siç je.
Ai skërmiti dhëmbët. Por kolegu e qetësoi.
-S’kemi tabela – tha.
-S’më duhet gjë - i thashë unë.
Pastaj e yshta bisedën.
Edhe policët tanë nuk kishin dikur, por tabelat na i dhanë malazezët në fillim, nga ato ku shkruhej “Policija”. Ndërsa italianët na dhanë ca ku shkruhej “Stradale”. Juve s’iu kanë dhënë akoma?
Polici i zbërthyer skërmiti sërish dhëmbët. Nuk e pranoi dot tabelën “Policija”.
-Nejse. Mbusheni gjobën dhe ma jepni, mund ta paguaj në Tiranë besoj, me postë.
-Jo jo, duhet ta paguash këtu. Ata që janë me dokumenta amerikane, gjermane apo zvicerane, nuk i pengojmë, ndërsa juve të Shqipërisë nuk ju lëshojmë dot. Duhet të të mbajmë patentën.
-Qashtu bre e bëjmë edhe ne atje - thashë unë gjithë entuziazem. Amerikanët, gjermanët, italianët, anglezët e ca mbarojnë me zët nga pas, nuk i prekim. Ama po qenë kosovarë u punojmë qindin. Gjoba po se po, por ua fusim edhe në çmime. 300 lekë ua shesim domatet, dy-fish shezllonet në plazh.
Nejse policët më morën patentën tërë nerva dhe ikën. Unë nisa të pyes ku bie komisariati. E gjeta. Një polic, që nuk duhej të ishte shqipo i pastër si rracë, më ndihmoi të paguaja gjobën, madje futi dorën në xhep të plotësonte shumën, se nuk e plotësoja dot. Pastaj kërkoi plolicin që kishte patentën time.
-Është në patrullë më tha. Është në lëvizje.
-Po si t’ia bëj?
-Mund ta gjesh tek një aksident. Ec drejt, pastaj majtas, pastaj drejt prapë….
- I found the accident, a dum-dum had collided with a pole. It was a police car with a logo. I asked him for help. Call the patrol that had my license.
- You will have them here in 5 minutes.
5, 10, 15, ... I say it again. Sir please…. Take it again: Will you bring the driver's license to this man from Albania?
Finally it came. He almost threw me through the car window.
I left for Tirana.
For now - I thought - better two m…. small and separate, than a m…. big together.
Later kismet. Maybe we change.
