PART 2
UPDATE 10
Nisha ladkhada gayi.
Uske kadam control se bahar ho chuke the.
Wo peeche hati, gate se takra gayi.
Manager usse sambhalne ke liye aage badha: "Ma’am!"
Lekin maine usse ghoorta raha.
Phir thandi awaz me bola:
"Abbe, kya ‘Ma’am Ma’am’ kar raha hai? Joker ko wait karna nahi aata kya?"
Manager gabra gaya, par control me raha.
"Sir… ab ek saath itna paisa nahi de sakte!"
Maine ek second ka waqt diya… phir bina warning ke uski gardan pakad li.
Ek haath uski collar pakad chuka tha, doosra uski naak ke paas cigar tha.
Meri awaz ek killer ki tarah thandi thi.
"Saale… jab maine yaha 5000 crore deposit kiye the… tab nahi bola tha na?"
Manager hath-pair marne laga.
"Uhh… sir… ab security zyada ho gayi hai!"
Maine cigar ka dhua uske muh par fooka:
"Toh koi rasta bata… mujhe paise chahiye!"
Manager ne ek pal socha, phir bola:
"Main account me transfer kar sakta hoon!"
Tabhi mera phone baja.
Maine cigar ka ek aur puff liya, phone uthaya.
"Joker, jo manager bola na… wahi kar. Use lekar aa. Yahi humare account me transfer karega."
Maine manager ka collar chhoda.
Fir seedha uski taraf dekha:
"Chal, ab tere saath walk karne ka mood hai."
Hum dono bank ke main hall se nikle.
Maine ek nazar bheed par dali, fir bola:
"Sab kaam karo, main aata hoon. Aur haan… koi darrne ki baat nahi hai… par agar police ko call kiya na, toh bhookhe mar jaaoge."
Kisi ne zuban nahi kholi.
Main aur manager bank ke bahar aa gaye.
Ek thandi hawa chal rahi thi.
Maine cigar ka ek aur kash liya.
Phir dheere se bola:
"Thoda sa sorry haan… harkat ke liye. Tumhare rooms me cameras the."
Manager ab bhi nervous tha, lekin uski aankhon me ek alag hi respect thi.
"Sir… main aapko jaanta hoon. Achhe logo ke saath aap bura nahi karte… warna mera pariwar aaj sadak pe hota."
Maine halki si muskurahat di.
"Bas, ye yaad rakhna. Chal, kaha hai tera laptop?"
Manager turant bola: "Locker me hai."
"Acha… lock password kya hai?"
"45231."
Kuch hi seconds me laptop mere haath me tha.
Manager shock me tha.
"Yeh kaise kiya aapne?"
Maine cigar uske muh ke aur kareeb le gaya.
"Tere baccho ke liye bhi toh kuch sunane ko hona chahiye, nahi?"
Maine laptop uthaya, aur manager ki gaadi me baith gaya.
Ek aadha kash aur lagaya.
Aur socha –"Yeh paise ka chakkar aaj hi khatam kar deta hoon… bas ek baar transfer ho jaye mujhe inne sabki zarurat nahi thi.Yeh toh sirf isliye churaye the ki saale terrorist aur don logon ko hathiyaar ke liye paisa na mile.
Par ab yeh sab drama jyada ho raha tha.
"Marna ho toh do second me maar doon… par jaane do."
Hum dono andar jaane lage.
Maine cigar ka ek lamba kash liya.
Tabhi ek aadmi samne aaya
"Aye DD urf Joker, yeh cigar yahi phekh de!"
Maine thoda muskura ke dhua fooka:
"Fffffuuuhhh… Kyun be?"
Aadmi seedha bola: "Boss ka order hai."
Maine haath hila ke ishaara kiya:
"Idhar aa re… dar mat."
Wo thoda hesitant tha, par aage badha.
"Bolo?"
Maine cigar ka ek aur kash liya.
Phir uski aankhon me dekha:
"Tune aaj sharaab pi thi na?"
Aadmi thoda confuse hua: "Haan… tujh… AAAAHHHHHH!"
Maine cigar seedha uski aankh me ghusa di.
Wo cheekh pada, neeche gir gaya.
Bina ek muscle hilaaye, maine thanda sa bola:
"Behnchod… jab tujhe kisi ne nahi roka… toh mujhe kyun roka?"
Waha pe khade 5 aadmiyon ne gun taan di.
Maine aram se unki taraf dekha.
"Saalo, abhi dimag thikhaane hai ya nahi? Chup chaap paise le lo aur chhod do.*Waise bhi, ab mera mood thoda aashiqana hai."
Tabhi peeche se ek awaz aayi.
"Boss!"
Wakar Bhai andar aaya - "Kya re bhidu, kaiko chapar-chapar karwata hai?
Woh paisa dene ke liye aaya hai, tum log fokat me kyun marna chahte ho?"
Aadmi abhi bhi cheekh raha tha:
"Aaaahhh… bhai! Meri aankh jal rahi hai!"
Wakar bina expression ke bola:
"Teri toh gaand bhi jali hai re bhidu. Jaa, jakar doctor ko dikhha."
Fir meri taraf dekha:
"Aur tu… kya naam tera? Haan, DD! Paisa laaye kya?"
Maine manager ko aage kar diya.
"Haan, yeh raha."
Wakar haath ghumata hua bola:
"Chalo, andar mein."
Hum ek bade hall me aaye.
Ek table ke paas jaake baithe.
Wakar mere taraf dekhta raha… fir bola:
"Mujhe log bole ki tu bahut khatarnak hai."
Maine thoda muskuraaya.
Phir thandi awaz me bola:
"Abbe chutiye… ek awaaz me bol.*
DVD ke maafik pura India dikhha raha hai?"
Wakar chillata hua bola:
"Mera baap bahut harami tha, tha… Maa bahut sundar thi ...
Maine thoda thanda sa bola:
"Tere baap ki…? Teri maa ki…? Saale, kahaan hai dono?"
Wakar ek second ko serious hua, phir achanak zor se hasne laga.
"Laa re uss chamiya ko! Saali badi kadak maal hai re!"
Meri mutthi kas gayi.
Manager ka muh utar gaya.
Uski aankhon me dar saaf dikh raha tha.
Kyuki woh ek baar pehle bhi Joker ka 'live show' dekh chuka tha.
Wakar aur uske aadmi zor se hasne lage.
"Kya be chirkut! Saale, kis mutiye ko leke aaya hai?"
Maine aankhon me aag bhar ke dekha:
"Sun be, milawat ki paidaish… agar ek baar aur meri behen ko gaali di na…
Toh sabki mut-paani band kar dunga!"
Tabhi ek aadmi beech me bol pada:
"Bhai, uss najuk kali ko bhi toh—"
Maine uski taraf ek thandi nazar daali.
Bas, woh bolta-bolta chup ho gaya.
Wakar ne dekha toh chilaya:
"Kya hua be? Chup kyun ho gaya? Bol!"
Aadmi munh pher ke bola:
"Kuch nahi bhai, mai…"
Wakar hansne laga:
"Abe tu bhi dar gaya kya?"
Aadmi jaldi se bola:
"Nahi bhai, aap ho toh kya dar? Laao re dono ko!"
Manager ka chehra peela pad gaya.
Wo rooh se hil gaya.
"Please… paise lo aur chhod do! Baatein mat karo, please!"
Wakar has ke bola:
"Kyun be? Apne adde pe aaye ho, aur yeh tera matlab hai?"
Manager rooh se kaanp gaya:
"Nahi… mai tum sabki body kaatate hue nahi dekh sakta…"
Tabhi ek aadmi andar aaya.
Do aur logon ko ghaseet ke laaya gaya.
Ek ladki cheekhi:
"Chhod do hume!"
Wakar ki aankhon me shaitan jag gaya.
"Lo re, maal aa gaya!"
Ladki gusse se boli:
"Tum jaante ho? Mere pati Commissioner hai yahan ke!"
Wakar fake dukhi chehra bana ke bola:
"Aahh… bada dukh hua jaan ke!
Tab bhi nahi bacha payega tumhe!"
Manager rone laga.
"Bhai, aap kyun bachodi kar rahe ho?"
Wakar ek second ke liye ruka.
"Kya bola b
e?"
Manager rooh se kaanp gaya, phir gusse se bola:
"Kutto! Kyun ungli kar rahe ho? Jaante ho na, saamne kaun baitha hai?"
Wakar hans ke bola:
"Bol toh aise raha hai jaise yeh hume maarega!"
Manager ka ek hi jawab tha:
"Nahi… yeh maartaa nahi…
Kataata hai!"
koi bataya bhi nahi
