Questa è la storia di Amalia, una trasteverina DOC, che da cinquant'anni, vive in uno di questi palazzi verso Fontana di Trevi. Sono seduta in un piccolo bar sulla via, la vedo arrivare, quasi arrancando, sto già pensando allo scatto, quando il sior Alfredo, posando il mio caffè sul tavolino, mi dice: “Visto che donna! Nu ce se crede, è l'Amalia de Fontana de Trevi e sta a servizio di una nobile famiglia da generazioni. Aveva meno di vent'anni quando è venuta qui, io ero un ragazzetto, e lei na figliola bella come er sole. E' sempre rimasta qui, adesso accudisce gli ultimi rampolli dell'antica casata”. Gli dico: “ Ma come in un palazzo così grande fa tutto l'Amalia?”. “No, no, per carità, c'è altra servitù in quella casa, lei se ne potrebbe star bona e reposarsi, come dice il signor Elio che le è tanto affezionato. Ma l'Amalia senza far nulla, nu ce sa sta, e allora va a fa' la spesa, e tutte quelle cose che la tengono fuori, a contatto con l'aria, come dice lei.”! Quindi, ribatto, “Nu se ne parla d'andà in pensione?”. “Per carità” ? morirebbe se la togli da quella casa. Qui la conoscono tutti, la chiamano la baronessa, perché col padre del sior Elio, l'Amalia c'ha avuto una lunga storia, specialmente dopo la morte della moglie. Non è stata furba pe' niente,mai accampato i suoi diritti. Ma dicono che il sior Ettore, le ha lasciato parecchi soldi, e potrebbe vive da signora. Ma lei è contenta così”. “E allora, se è contenta l'Amalia son contenti tutti, e alla fine, fa quello che le pare e non è sola”, concludo io, con buona pace dei pettegolezzi della zona e faccio un brindisi al suo indirizzo con la mia tazzina vuota”. Commenti, consigli e critiche sempre super graditi. Grazie.
