Chapter3
Devika ko bura laga ki usko vikram ne apne relation ke bare mein mujhe andhere me kyu rakha?
Par thoda vichar karne ke baad usko laga ki jo relation 7-8 pehle ka tha uske bare me abhi koi kyu baat karega?
Aur vikram to uss ladki ko mila tak nahi ya yu kahe ki dekha tak nahi hai 8 saalo se, aur unn dono ki shadi se pehle mulaqat hi jyada nahi ho paayi jaha pe wo ye sachhai usko bataye.
Ye sochkar devika ne vikram pe koi shaq na karke uspe hamdardi jatayi.
Shadi ke kuchh hi din mein devika ko pata chal gaya tha ki uske saas sasur bahut hi ghamandi aur khatarnak log hai.
Kehneko to wo log businessman hai par unka khauf pure gaon aura as pass ke ilaako mein bahut jyaada hai.
Wo apni baat manane ke liye kisi bhi had tak jaa sakte hai, aur usko vikram ki premika reshma aur uske pariwar ke sath jo hua wo bhi yaad aa gaya.
Devika ki saas usko kabhi kabhi kharab shabd bhi bol deti jaise usko pyaar karti hi nahi.
Uska dar dheere dheere sach saabit ho raha tha, wo khilona ban rahi thi par vo yeh soch ke sab sehen kar leti ki aage sab kuchh acchha zaroor hoga.
Utne mein hi vikram ka transfer pratappur mein ho gaya sath hi sath usko promotion bhi mila tha isliliye sab bahut hi khush the. Devika bhi khush huyi thi par vikram ke sath dhang se baat karne ka mauka nahi mila tha.
Aur 15 din ke baad wo Pratappur mein shift ho gaye the.
PRESENT
Bus jhatke se khadi rahi rahi to devika apne ateet se nikalkar seedha vartman mein aa pahuchi. Usne dekha pratappur aa gaya tha. Wo neeche utarkar apne ghar ki ore chalne lagi.
Vo soch rahi thi ki vikram ka kya reaction hoga. Dar rahi thi uske bare mein sochkar abhi.
Dono jaha par rehte the vo sarkari makaan tha. 2 floor ka ghar tha aur aaju baaju ke ghar thode alag alag antar se the.
Devika ne dekha main room ki light on hai, vikram uska hi intezar kar raha hoga.
Jaise hi usne doorbell bajaya drwaza khul gaya aur samne vikram T-shirt aur short pehn ke khada tha. Usne abhi bhi muchhe barkarar rakhi thi.
“ye ghar aane ka time hai tumhara, almost 1 ghanta late ho tum”-Devika andar aati uske pehle hi wo foot pada aur zor se bola.
“Maine tumko bataya tha ki agar aise late hoga to tumhari job se resign karwa dunga. Last time warning de raha hu aage se aisa hua to dekh lena”- Vikram ne devika ka jawab sune bina hi bolna chalu rakha.
“Sorry, wo bus ki puncture ho gayi thi to der ho gayi aaj”- Devika ne dheeme awaz mein kaha.
“I don’t care, tum bus mein aao ya kisi jahaj mein aage se der huyi to tumhari job bandh karwa dunga”- vikram ek saans mein bol gaya.
‘Tum aise tehlte tehlte aao ye mujhe hargeez pasand nahi hai’- Vikram ne kaha
Vo batana chahti thi ki vikram mein tehlne nahi gayi thi lecturer hu college mein aur job karti hu. Main bhi poore din ke baad thak jaati hu, aur ghar ka saara kam bhi hota hai,par vo kuchh nahi bol paayi, usko pata tha ki vikram ka male ego hurt hoga aur vo aur gussa karega agar kuchh boli to.
Devika usko kuchh seconds tak dekhti rahi aur ‘Ji’ kehkar andar chali gayi.
Raat ka khana khane ke baad vikram T.V dekhne laga aur devika usase thoda dur baithke koi magazine padhne lagi.
Kareeb 10 baje kea as pass vikram khada hua aur bedroom mein jaa ke so gaya.
Devika ne waha jaa kar dekha to vikram jaa kar so gaye the.
Roz ki tarah aaj bhi usne unko disturb nahi kiya aur wo bhi uske baaju mein jaake so gayi aur lights off kardi.
Par uski ankhon se neend koso dur thi, vo pratappur aane ke baad ke samay ke bare mein sochne lagi.
Shaadi ke 2 saal ke baad bhi unka koi bachha nahi hua to vikram ke maa baap usko puchhne lage.
Jab devika ne doctor ko batane ko kaha to vikram ne pehle na nukur ki par baad mein maan gaya.
Reports saaf bata rahi thi ki problem vikram ke shukranu mein hai aur devika normal hai, agar kuchh medicines li jaaye to ye problem hal ho sakti hai.
Par vikram aur uski family ka manana tha ki humari family mardo ki hai vikram mein nahi devika mein hi problem hai aur unhone medicine lene ki naa boldi.
Vikram ne shaadi ke baad devika ke sath sex bhi bahut kam kiya tha, aur ye reports aane ke baad to vo baat baat pe fut padta tha.
Devika ki bhi kuchh shahririk zarurate thi wo puri nahi karta tha vikram.
Vo kabhi kabhi sochti ki jaan bujh kar vo aisa karta hai, par uske pass koi chara bhi to nahi tha.
Ye sochte sochte vo kab neend ki agosh mein chali gayi usko bhi pata nahi chala.
