Ashna gym se seedha kitchen main aa gei. Bihari kaka kitchen main boiled potatos ko mesh kar rahe they.
Ashna: Kaka kya kar rhae ho.
Kaka ne bina uski taraf dekhe jawab diya. Kaka: daba raha hun........... mera matlab aloo ubal egy hain inhe masal raha hun.
Ashna ne ek baar Bihari ki baat per gour kiya aur fir sir jhatak ker uski baat kan se nikal di.
Ashna: desi ghee main banana Virender ke liye paranthey. Itni kasrat karte hain to shareer ko ghee bhi to chaiye aur waise bhi bimari ki wajah se kafi kamzor bhi ho gey hain.
Bihari: bahut ghee hai unke andar, tabhi to itni kasrat karni padti hai unhe.
Ashna Bihari ki baat sunker soch main pad jati hai. Use lagta hai shayad Bihari janta nahin ke kisi ke sath kaisi baat ki jati hai, wo use gawar samaj ker us ki double meaning batoon ko lightly lene lagti hai.
Kaka: Virender ne shadi kyun nahin ki, ab to unki umar bhi kafi ho gei hai.
Bihari: pata nahin bitiya, per jab se chote malik ke parivaar ke sath wo hadsa hua hai wo kafi toot gey hain. Pehle to fir bhi meri baat sunte they per jab maine unko shadi ke liye zor dena shuru kiya to wo mujse bhi kam he baat karte hai. Ab to aisa hai ke Virender babu sirf kam hone per he mujse baat karte hain.
Ashna: lekin is se to koi hal nahin naiklega.
Bihari: main janta hun bitiya. Isi liye us din pareshan hoker nashe main tumse aisi baat kar baitha. Malik ki yeh halat ab mujse dekhi nahin jati. Muje to yeh lagta hai ke Virender babu shayad he kabhi shadi karenge.
Ashna: aisa kyun??.
Bihari: suna hai ke Virender babu kisi ladki se pyar karte they, us ladki ne inhe dhokha de diya tab se Virender babu akele he jiye ja rahe hain aur andar he andar ghute ja rahe hain.
Ashna: kaka, kya apne us ladki ko dekha tha?
Bihari: ab itna yaad to nahin lekin yahin paas main he rehti thi. Kafi choti thi jab maine use dekha tha. Fir wo apni padayi karne kahin chali geyi aur uske baad to kahin mili bhi hogi to main nahin janta. Ashna Bihari ki batein sunker andaza lagati hai ke Bihari ko is mamle main zyada pata nahin hoga.
Ashna: lekin kabhi na kabhi to unhe shadi karni he padegi na. Aaj nahin to kal unhe sahare ki zaroorat to padegi na.
Bihari: maine lakh samjaya per Virender babu hai ke tas se mas nahin hote. Isi liye us din Virender babu ko tumse acchi tarah se baat karte dekha to main reh nahin paya aur tumhare samne is tarah ka prastaav rakha. Main janta hun ke kisi bhi ladki ke liye is tarah ka prastaav manna bahut mushkil hai. Magar main samajta hun ke ek aurat ko chaiye he kya. Do waqt ki roti aur rehne ko chat. Muje pata hai ke tum bahut mahatavakankashi ladki ho magar main yeh bhi janta hu ke Virender babu ka khayal tumse zyada aur koi nahin rakh sakta.
Ashna, Bihari ki is baat se chounk jati hai. Ashna: wo kaise?.
Bihari ne baat sambhalte hue kaha r. ji ne bataya ke tumne khud zid karke Virender babu ki dekh-bhal karne ke liye apna naam unhe sujaya hai. Bhagvaan kare tum ek bahut acchi Dr. bano.
Ashna sochti hai ke Dr. Beena ko shayad Bihari se jooth bolna pada hoga taki Bihari ko koi shaq na ho.
Ashna: wo to theek hai kaka per hame kuch to karna he hoga.
Bihari: dekho bitiya, itne saloon main Virender babu ki zindagi main koi ladki nahin aayi to itna to tey hai ke Virender babu kisi bhi ladki ko apne paas fatakne bhi nahin denge.Tum is ghar main isliye ho kyunki tum ek Dr. ho, to fir batao bhala Virender babu ki zindagi main tumhare siwa koi ladki kaise aa sakti hai.
Ashna ko Bhi Bihari ki batoon main sachai lagi.
Bihari: beti meri baat galat zaroor hai per iske alawa muje koi aur rasta nazar nahin aata. Ho sake to meri batoon ko ab thande dimag se sochna.
Tabhi Virender ghar main enter hota hai. Virender: kaka orange juice lao, bahut paseena nikal raha hai. Ashna ne kitchen se orange juice glass main dal ker haal main baithe Virender ki taraf badaya jo ki ankhen band karke chair per tek lagaye baitha tha. Ashna ke perfume ki khushbu se usne ankhein kholi to samne Ashna ko khada paa ker muskurate hue bola. Lagta hai aap ne meri aadtein bigadni ki than he li hai.
Ashna: main kuch samji nahin.
Virender: Dr. aap bhul rahi hain ke aap bas kuch din he meri dekhbhal ke liye aayi hain, sochiye jab aap chali jayengi to mera kya hoga. Yeh sunker Ashna ko vastvikta ka abhaas hua. Wo to wakai yahan kuch dino ke liye he aayi hai.
Ashna: accha to ab aap muje jaldi se yahan se bhejna chahte hain.
Virender:kyun, aap nahin jana chahti kya?
Virender ke is sawal se Ashna ke dil ki dhadkanein bhad gei aur use kuch jawab dete na bana.Ashna ne baat badalte hue kaha. Baad ki baat bad main karenge Mr. Virender, aap jaldi se fresh hoker neeche aa jaiye, Kaka ne aapka nashte ki taiyaar puri kar di hai. Jaldi se jaiye aur jaldi se aaker garam garam nashta kar lijiye.
Virender: aaj to hame aapke haath ke paranthey he khane hain. Bana dogi to pet bhar ker kha lenge warna aaj to pura din upwaas aur itna kehker Virender seediyan chadney laga.
Ashna Juice ka khali glass uthaker kitchen ki taraf chal di. Kitchen ke bahar khade mand mand muskurate hue Bihari kaka ko dekh ker uske kadam wahi ruk gey.
Bihari: lagta hai ab meri noukri khatrey main aa gei hai.Chalo bhai hum koi aur kaam kar lete hain. Aaj to aap he bana ker khila do Virender babu ko desi ghee ke paranthey. Ashna sir jhukaye Kitchen main ghus gei.
