Highway 178<\/a>, Kaliforniya haritas\u0131nda s\u0131radan bir yol gibi g\u00f6r\u00fcnse de eyaletin z\u0131tl\u0131klarla dolu hayat \u00e7izgilerinden biridir. Bat\u0131da Sierra Nevada da\u011flar\u0131n\u0131 a\u015f\u0131p do\u011fuda Mojave \u00c7\u00f6l\u00fc<\/a>\u2019ne teslim olur.

Benim gibi, yoluma \u00e7\u0131kan o tuhaf ikili gibi…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kalabal\u0131\u011f\u0131n i\u00e7inde g\u00f6r\u00fcnmeyen y\u00fczlerden biriydi; uzun s\u00fcredir sokaklardayd\u0131. K\u00f6pekle yollar\u0131 San Francisco<\/a>\u2019nun kalbinde, g\u00fcr\u00fclt\u00fcl\u00fc bir k\u00f6\u015fede kesi\u015fmi\u015fti. \u0130kisi de yaln\u0131z ve yorgundu. Aralar\u0131ndaki ba\u011f\u0131n nas\u0131l kuruldu\u011funu kimse anlayamasa da o g\u00fcnden sonra birbirlerinden ayr\u0131lmad\u0131lar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

K\u0131\u015f\u0131 \u015fehirde ge\u00e7irmek zordu, g\u00fcneye y\u00f6neldiler. Kamyon kasalar\u0131nda seyahat ettiler, otoyol kenarlar\u0131nda beklediler. Benzin istasyonlar\u0131, terk edilmi\u015f binalar, lo\u015f sokaklar ge\u00e7ici s\u0131\u011f\u0131naklar\u0131 oldu. Yol uzundu, r\u00fczg\u00e2r sertti, sessizlik a\u011f\u0131rd\u0131 ama yan yana olduklar\u0131nda her \u015fey biraz daha katlan\u0131l\u0131r g\u00f6r\u00fcn\u00fcyordu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kas\u0131m sonuydu. \u00c7\u00f6l\u00fcn kenar\u0131ndaki k\u00fc\u00e7\u00fck bir kasabada durdular. Ana yolun kenar\u0131ndaki benzin istasyonunun tabelas\u0131 r\u00fczg\u00e2rla sallan\u0131yordu. Ak\u015fam, \u00e7\u00f6le usulca inerken bir araba istasyona girdi. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Direksiyonun ba\u015f\u0131ndaki ki\u015fi bendim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uzun bir yoldan geliyordum. 27 Kas\u0131m ak\u015fam\u0131yd\u0131. Ridgecrest\u2019e do\u011fru gidiyordum; ertesi sabah Death Valley<\/a>\u2019in s\u0131n\u0131r\u0131na varmay\u0131 planl\u0131yordum. Hava h\u0131zla so\u011fuyordu, g\u00f6ky\u00fcz\u00fc morla siyah aras\u0131nda donmu\u015f gibiydi. Yak\u0131t \u0131\u015f\u0131\u011f\u0131 yan\u0131nca ilk istasyona sapt\u0131m. Motor sustu\u011fu anda \u00e7\u00f6l\u00fcn o derin sessizli\u011fini hissettim. Etrafta benden ba\u015fka kimse yok gibiydi ta ki onlar\u0131 g\u00f6rene kadar…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yak\u0131t pompas\u0131n\u0131 depoya yerle\u015ftirirken, istasyonun duvar\u0131na yaslanm\u0131\u015f iki g\u00f6lge fark ettim. Bir adam ve yan\u0131na k\u0131vr\u0131lm\u0131\u015f k\u00f6pe\u011fi. K\u0131m\u0131ldamadan karanl\u0131\u011f\u0131 izliyorlard\u0131. Lo\u015f \u0131\u015f\u0131kta bile adam\u0131n y\u00fcz\u00fcndeki derin \u00e7izgiler belliydi. Highway 178\u2019in ge\u00e7ti\u011fi o sert co\u011frafyay\u0131 and\u0131r\u0131yordu; yorgun, derin ve \u0131ss\u0131z. K\u00f6pek, pompan\u0131n mekanik g\u00fcr\u00fclt\u00fcs\u00fcne tepki vermedi. Ba\u015f\u0131n\u0131 patilerinin aras\u0131na g\u00f6mm\u00fc\u015f k\u0131p\u0131rdamadan duruyordu. O an fark\u0131nda de\u011fildim ama yolculu\u011fun rotas\u0131 de\u011fi\u015fecek gibiydi\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Depoyu doldurup kahve almak i\u00e7in istasyonun kasas\u0131na y\u00f6neldi\u011fimde adam ba\u015f\u0131n\u0131 hafif\u00e7e e\u011fip \u015fapkas\u0131n\u0131n siperli\u011fine dokundu. Sessiz k\u0131sa bir selamd\u0131 bu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u0130yi ak\u015famlar,\u201d <\/em>dedim. \u201cSo\u011fuk bir ak\u015fam,\u201d <\/em>diye kar\u015f\u0131l\u0131k verdi, ba\u015f\u0131n\u0131 k\u00f6pe\u011fine \u00e7evirdi. \u201cDaha k\u00f6t\u00fclerini de g\u00f6rd\u00fck, de\u011fil mi Lucky?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

K\u00f6pek, ismini duyunca ba\u015f\u0131n\u0131 hafif\u00e7e kald\u0131rd\u0131. Ad\u0131n\u0131 \u00f6\u011frenmi\u015ftim: Lucky<\/strong>. \u015eansl\u0131!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0130\u00e7eri girdi\u011fimde taze kahve kokusunun country m\u00fczi\u011fine kar\u0131\u015ft\u0131\u011f\u0131 atmosfer kar\u015f\u0131lad\u0131 beni. Raflarda tozlu dergiler, cam\u0131n arkas\u0131nda solmu\u015f yol haritalar\u0131 vard\u0131. K\u00fc\u00e7\u00fck Amerikan kasabalar\u0131nda her zaman rastlanabilecek t\u00fcrden bir istasyondu buras\u0131.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kasada, y\u00fcz\u00fcnde binlerce hik\u00e2yenin izini ta\u015f\u0131yan g\u00f6zl\u00fckl\u00fc bir kad\u0131n oturuyordu. Kahvemi al\u0131p tezgaha y\u00f6neldim. Kad\u0131n \u00f6n\u00fcndeki dergiyi hafif\u00e7e yana \u00e7ekti ve y\u00fcz\u00fcme bakmadan sordu:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHepsi bu mu, tatl\u0131m?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEvet,\u201d<\/em> demeye haz\u0131rlan\u0131yordum ki d\u0131\u015far\u0131da adam sigaras\u0131n\u0131 yakt\u0131. \u00c7akmak alevi cama yans\u0131d\u0131.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBir kahve daha,\u201d <\/em>dedim adam\u0131 i\u015faret ederek. \u201cBir de\u2026 k\u00f6pek mamas\u0131 var m\u0131?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kad\u0131n, tezg\u00e2h\u0131n ucundaki k\u00fc\u00e7\u00fck \u0131zgarada a\u011f\u0131r a\u011f\u0131r d\u00f6nen sosislere kayd\u0131rd\u0131 g\u00f6zlerini.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMamam\u0131z yok,\u201d<\/em> dedi. \u201csadece bunlar var.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cebimden yirmi dolar \u00e7\u0131kard\u0131m. \u201c\u0130ki sosisli, iki kahve o zaman.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kad\u0131n g\u00f6zl\u00fc\u011f\u00fcn\u00fc \u00e7\u0131kar\u0131p tezgaha koydu; \u00f6nce paraya sonra bana bakt\u0131. \u0130ki eliyle tezg\u00e2hta garip bir ritme ba\u015flad\u0131, ba\u015f\u0131n\u0131 ritme uygun hafif\u00e7e sall\u0131yordu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBunlar benden,\u201d dedi yumu\u015fak bir sesle. \u201cBu ak\u015fama \u00f6zel bir hediye olarak kabul et.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ba\u015f\u0131yla d\u0131\u015far\u0131y\u0131 i\u015faret etti. \u201cLucky sosisliye bay\u0131lacak.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

K\u0131sa bir sessizlik oldu. Ard\u0131ndan i\u00e7ten ama biraz yorgun bir tebess\u00fcmle g\u00fcl\u00fcmsedi: \u201cHappy Thanksgiving.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bug\u00fcn 27 Kas\u0131m\u2019d\u0131. \u015e\u00fckran G\u00fcn\u00fc’yd\u00fc. Sokaklar\u0131n bo\u015f olmas\u0131n\u0131n nedeni buydu. Herkes evinde, ailesiyle ak\u015fam yeme\u011fi yiyordu. Biz de \u00e7\u00f6l\u00fcn k\u0131y\u0131s\u0131ndaki bu k\u00fc\u00e7\u00fck istasyonda Thanksgiving <\/em>ak\u015fam\u0131n\u0131 payla\u015f\u0131yorduk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

D\u0131\u015far\u0131 \u00e7\u0131kt\u0131m. So\u011fuk y\u00fcz\u00fcme \u00e7arpt\u0131. Plastik kahve kab\u0131 avu\u00e7lar\u0131m\u0131 \u0131s\u0131t\u0131yordu. Adam ba\u015f\u0131n\u0131 kald\u0131rd\u0131. S\u0131cak kahvesini uzatt\u0131m, k\u00f6pe\u011fe sosisliyi. Lucky tek hamlede yuttu sandvi\u00e7i. \u201cBol \u015fans,\u201d<\/em> dedim araca d\u00f6nerken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAyn\u0131 \u015fekilde,\u201d<\/em> dedi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Motoru \u00e7al\u0131\u015ft\u0131rd\u0131m. Kahvemi yudumlarken dikiz aynamdan kap\u0131 \u00f6n\u00fcndeki g\u00f6lgeleri izledim. Kad\u0131n g\u00f6zl\u00fc\u011f\u00fcn\u00fc tak\u0131p dergisine d\u00f6nm\u00fc\u015ft\u00fc. Lucky yalan\u0131yordu. Adam kahvesini yudumlad\u0131, sigaras\u0131ndan bir nefes \u00e7ekti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ad\u0131n\u0131 \u00f6\u011frenemedim ama haf\u0131zama onu Jack diye kaydettim. \u00dc\u00e7 yabanc\u0131, bir k\u00f6pek. Ridgecrest, California. G\u00fcnlerden 27 Kas\u0131m… Kimdi, nereden geliyordu, nereye gidiyordu? Ben onlar\u0131 San Francisco\u2019da tan\u0131\u015fan iki dost olarak hayal ettim. Siz ba\u015fka bir ge\u00e7mi\u015f yazabilirsiniz. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bir evi, bir i\u015fi, bir ailesi oldu mu? Lucky ger\u00e7ekten onun k\u00f6pe\u011fi miydi? Jack ve Lucky \u015fimdi nerede? Kasadaki kad\u0131n h\u00e2l\u00e2 dergisini mi okuyor?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cevab\u0131 olmayan bu sorular yolculu\u011fun kendisini anlat\u0131r. Tesad\u00fcflerin, hesapta olmayan kar\u015f\u0131la\u015fmalar\u0131n ve payla\u015f\u0131lan bir kahvenin ard\u0131ndan \u00e7\u00f6ken bu yaln\u0131zl\u0131k an\u0131 gibi…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highway 178 bizi bir ak\u015fam vakti ayn\u0131 hik\u00e2yenin i\u00e7ine \u00e7ekti. Sonra gece hepimizi ayr\u0131 y\u00f6nlere savurdu. \u00d6n\u00fcmde farlar\u0131n ayd\u0131nlatt\u0131\u011f\u0131, cevaplar\u0131n olmad\u0131\u011f\u0131 bir yol uzan\u0131yor.
