Mai kuch nahi boli aur chupchap ushki bakwaas shunti rahi. par Mere sharir ke rom-rom mein ek ajib shi halchal ho rahi thi.
Vo phir peeche muda aur bola, bata chalti hai kya, mere saath, mere ghar me koyi nahi hai.
Maine ish baar ushe saaf-saaf bol diya ki mujhe jaldi ghar jaana hai, tum riksha tej kyon nahi chalaate.
Ye shunte hi ushne rikshe ki speed badha di. Thodi der vo chup raha. Mai bhi khamosh baithi rahi.
Achanak vah phir piche muda aur mujhe ghur kar dekha, aur dheere se bola, lagta hai meri saari mehnat bekar gai. Maine vo shun liya, par koi reaction nahi kiya. Mai man hi man soch rahi thi ki, bechare ki, kya halat ho rahi hai . Par ishme, meri to koi, galati nahi thi. Yehi to, mere piche hath dho kar pada tha. Maine to ishe, apni khidki par, aane ko, nahi kaha tha. Ushe bade-bade khwab dekhne se pehle, ek baar, sochna chahiye tha.
Mai kisi bhi halat me apni sheemaye nahi langh sakti thi.Akhir mera ek hansta, khelta parivar tha. Mai ye sab, soch hi rahi thi ki, riksha achanak ruk gaya. Maine pucha kya huva. Vo bola rikshe ki chain utar gayi hai. Aur vo chain chadhane ke liye, rikshe se niche utra aur rikshe ke piche aa gaya. Chain chadha kar vo bola, mai thoda pesab kar leta hu, aur samne ki jhadiyo me chala gaya.
Mai chup-chap baithi rahi. Mai soch rahi thi ki, bada hi sharareti ladka hai ye, pata nahi ab kya, karne wala hai. Maine samne ki jhadiyo me dekha to, dung rah gayi. Usne apna ling baher nikal rakha tha aur meri taraf, hila raha tha. Maine foran najre pher li. Koi bhi, ye najara dekh sakta tha. Mujhe ush par, gusha aa gaya.
Vo thodi der baad aaya aur bola, kaisa laga un jhadiyo me, mere lund ka najara. Maine ushe dantete huve kaha, tum pagal ho gaye ho kya? koi dekh leta to. Kam se kam, apni nahi to, meri ijjat ki to parvah karo. Vo thoda sakpaka gaya aur bola ‘oh sorry mujhe maf kar do’ mujhe ish baat ka bilkul dhyan nahi raha. Vo rikshe par chadha aur riksha chelane laga.
Kuch der tak vo chupchap riksha chalata raha.phir achank, phiche muda, aur bola, sabse jyada, tumhari galti hai. Maine gusse me pucha vo kaise. Vo bola, tum itni sundar jo ho, aur upar se, ye mausam, meri to bas jaan jane ko hai, please ek baar de do na. Mere muh se achanak nikal gaya kya ? aur mai man hi man me bahut pechtai ki, ye maine kya puch liya, mai to janti hi thi ki, ishe kya chahiye. Vo jhat se piche muda aur maine apni najre jhuka li, mai samajh gai thi ki, maine ishe gandi baate karne ka, moka de diya hai. Vo bola haye-haye kya sharmati hai tu, sunogi nahi ki, ek baar kya de do. Maine sharam se, na me gardan hila di. Vo bola, haye re teri ishi ada pe to mai mar mita hu, sach me teri chut lene ka maja hi kuch aur hoga. Mai kasam khata hu, mai kisi aur ki nahi marunga, bas ek baar tu mujhe apni de, de.
Mai sharam se lal ho gayi, ye soch kar ki, mai ye sab kya sun rahi thi. Achanak mera dhyan rikshe ke piche gaya, aur maine dekha ki, ek cycle wala hamare rikshe ke bilkul piche hai. Usne shayad sab sun liya tha. Jaise hi mai piche mudi meri ush se najre takrai, aur usne mujhe ankh maar di. Maine foran gardan mod li.
Vo bahut hi badsurat sa, kale rang ka, koi 34-35 saal ka aadmi tha. Mai ghabra gayi ki ab kya hoga. Vo rikshe ke bilkul sath-sath chalne laga aur mujhe ghurne laga.
Maine uski taraf bikul nahi dekha aur najre jhuka kar baithi rahi. vo bola, arey vah bhai, kya maal pataya hai chokre tune. Mai chup chap sunti rahi. vah meri taraf dekhte huve bola, mujhe bhi de de. Maine uski baat par dhyan nahi diya, par vo, phir bola, aaja ishi sadak par mera ghar hai, mere sath chal tujhe khus kar dunga, teri ache se lunga.Maine gusse me uski taraf dekha to, mujhe apni najre jhukani padi.
Vah sare aam, meri taraf dekh kar, cycle chalate huve, ek hath se, apna ling masal raha tha. Mai soch rahi thi ki dekho kaisi halat ho gayi hai meri, aise badsurat aadmi se mujhe, aisi gandi-gandi baate, sun-ni pad rahi hai. Par mai kar bhi kya sakti thi.
billu ne gusse me ushe bola, hey chal apna rasta pakad. Vo bola kyo sale, ye teri biwi hai kya. Aur billu foran bola ‘ha meri biwi hai’ chal nikal yaha se. mai chup chap sab sunti rahi. mai billu ki bahaduri par khus thi. Par usne mujhe apni biwi kyo kaha ? mujhe ye sab acha nahi lag raha tha.
Vo admi vaha se nahi hata, aur rikshe ke sath-sath chalta raha. Kitna ghinona, chehra tha uska. Ushe dekh kar hi, ulti aane ko ho rahi thi, aur aisa aadmi mere baare me aisi gandi baate kar raha tha, sab kuch bardast ke bahar tha. Ush aadmi ki himmat badhti hi ja rahi thi, vo meri taraf gande gande ishare karne laga.
Billu ne riksha rok liya, aur ush admi ko kaha, abe kya hai, yaha se jata hai ki nahi. Tabhi sadak par do char aur vahan dikhe aur vo aadmi sayad samajh gaya ki ab yaha rukna thic nahi aur sidha aage badh gaya.Par jate huve, usne piche mud kar, mujhe dekha aur maine apni gardan ghuma li, mai uske ghinone chehre ko nahi dekhna chahti thi.
Maine man hi man chain ki saans li ki chalo ye bala tal gai. Maine billu ko kaha, dekho tumne meri kitni, bejati kara di. Aaj tak kisi ne, mujhe aisi bate nahi boli thi, aur na hi kisi ne mujhe aisi najar se dekha tha. Maine billu ko kaha ki tum please riksa kisi dusre raste se le chalo, mai ush aadmi ko, dubara nahi dekhna chahti. Mujhe dar tha ki, kahi vo, dubara raste me mil jaye.
Aur billu ne chupchap riksha ghuma liya. Vo bola, madam shant ho jao, maine ushe bhagaya na. Maine kaha par tumhe aisi baate karne ki jarurat kya hai.
Vo meri taraf muda aur bola kya aapko meri baate achi nahi lagti ? aur mai chup ho gai, mere paas uske sawal ka koi jawab nahi tha. Mai soch me pad gayi ki kya vo, meri merji ke bina ye, baate kar sakta tha. Jawab mai janti thi. Kahi na kahi, meri galti se hi, ye sab, mere sath ho raha tha. Mujhe kya pata tha ki ,meri choti si bhool, bahut badi bhul, ban jayegi.
Khair thodi der me, mai shant ho gayi, aur socha mujhe ush aadmi se kya lena dena, aur chup chap mausam ka maja lene lagi. maine upar sar utha kar dekha, to ghane badal chaye the. Aisa lagta tha ki, kisi bhi vakt barish ho sakti hai.
Usne mujhe badlo ko ghurte huve dekh liya aur jhat se bola, sach bata, kya aise mausam me, tera man, kisi ko apni… dene ko nahi karta?. Mai jhat se boli, kisi ko kya matlab, mai shadi, shuda hu. Mujhe sayad chup rahna chahiye tha. Ushe mano, ek moka aur mil gaya, gandi baate karne ka, aur bola, acha to tera man sirf, apne pati ko dene ka karta hai. Ish baar mai chup rahi.
vo aage bola, arey bhai ish billu ka, kya hoga, jo din raat teri lene ke sapne dekhta rahta hai. Maine ab kuch bhi bolna sahi nahi samjha. Uski baate aur jyada gandi hoti ja rahi thi par mai khud par hairan thi, kyonki uski baate sun sun kar meri yoni tarbatar ho gayi thi.
