"aabe, ye kya tha?" rohan achaanak hee aasapaas kee ghanee jhaadiyon se apanee aur uchchhal kar aae gilaharee numa jaanavar ko dekhakar uchchhal kar teevrata se ek aur hat gaya.. jaanavar kee uchhaal mein jis prakaar kee teevrata thee, usse yahee prateet hua kee usane unn par hamala karane ka prayaas kiya tha...," toone isake daant dekhe?"
kareeb 10 - 10 pheet kee lambee chhalaang lagaata hua vo us ubad khaabad raaste ke doosaree taraph kee jhaadiyon mein kho gaya..
dono 2 pal vaheen khade hokar us ajeebogareeb gilaharee ko aankhon se aujhal hote dekhate rahe.. aur phir se apanee anjaan manzil kee aur badh chale..
"aph.. kahaan le aaya yaar...? kitana sannaata hai yahaan? yahaan par to aadamee kee jaat bhee nazar nahee aatee... kitana ajeeb sa lag raha hai yahaan sab kuchchh... tujhe lagata hai yahaan tujhe teree neeroo mil jaegee..? ... dekh mujhe to lagata hai kisee ne tera ulloo banaaya hai.. kyoon bevajah apanee raat barbaad kar raha hai... aur meree bhee.. chal vaapas chal!" nitin ne bolate hue saavadhaanee baratne ke iraade se rivolver nikaal kar apane haath mein le lee..
"aisee baat nahee hai yaar.. vo yaheen rahatee hai.. aasapaas, dekhana! koshish karenge to vo hamen zaroor milegee.. vo agar nahee milee to main paagal ho jaunga yaar!" rohan ne aage chalate chalate hee baat kahee...
nitin aage aage bahut chaukanna hokar chal raha tha.. chaukanna hona laajimee bhee tha.. jahaan is samay vo the, us jagah ke aasapaas koee shahar ya gaanv nahee tha.. har taraph sannaate kee bhayaavah see chaadar pasaree huee thee... aavaazen agar aa rahee thee to maindhako ke tarrane kee, aur rah rah kar jhaadiyon ke jhuraput mein kuchchh rengate hone kee...door door tak krtrim roshanee ka naamonishaan tak nahee tha.. bas aadhe chaand aur timatimaate hue taaron kee hulkee phulkee roshanee hee thee jo unako raasta dikha rahee thee.. raasta bhee aisa jo na hone ke hee baraabar tha.. kaheen uncha, kaheen neecha.. beech beech mein gahare gahare gaddhe.. itane gahare kee dhyaan se na chala jae to achaanak poora aadamee hee unamen gaayab ho jae.. dono aur kareeb 4 - 4 pheet oonchee jhaadiyaan thee...
"ab raasta soph hota to gaadee hee le aate.. tujhe kya lagata hai..? yahaan par koee insaan rahata hoga.. aur vo bhee ladakee.. sach bataana, khud tujhe dar nahee lag raha, yahaan ka maahaul dekh kar..." nitin ne chalate chalate rohan se savaal kiya...
"dar lag raha hai tabhee to tumhe lekar aaya hoon bhaee.. nahee to main akele hee na chala aata.." rohan ne javaab diya..aur achaanak hee uchchhal pada," nitin dekh.. aage pakkee sadak dikhaee de rahee hai.. main na kahata tha.. ham zaroor kaamayaab honge... aage zaroor koee bastee milegee... dekh lena!"
"aabe bastee ke bachche.. usse koee dhang ka raasta bhee to poochchh sakata tha too.. aakhir vo log bhee to shahar jaate honge..?" nitin ko bhee aage ka raasta pichchhale raaste ke muqaabale behatar dekh kar kuchchh ummeed bandhee....
"yaar, kya karoon, jab yahee ek raasta bataaya usane...!" rohan ne tezee se chalana shuroo kar chuke nitin ke kadamon se kadam milaate hue kaha....
"ajeeb premika hai teree.. ek to raat mein milane kee zid karee aur upar se raasta aisa bataaya.. chal dekh.. lagata hai ham pahunchane hee vaale hain.. udhar lait dikhaee de rahee hai.." nitin ne apanee baee taraph haath utha kar ishaara karate hue kaha...
dono baee taraph mude hee the kee achaanak thithak gaye..," yahaan to paanee hai..yaar!" rohan ne apane kadam vaapas kheenchate hue kaha..
"humm.. koee taalaab lagata hai..chal.. aage se raasta hoga... !" nitin ne rohan se kaha aur dono phir se seedhe raaste par chal pade..
