Update 36
Gate ton nikalde waqt Inderjeet ne baari vichon baahar mooh kaddheya te piche khadi Pooja te Bapu Jarnail Singh vall vekheya. Bapu ji khade san te Pooja bilkul ohna de piche khadi si. Inderjeet ne hawa vich hath hilaya te baari da sheesha band kar laya.
Gaddi pind di pakki sarak vall nikal gayi te gaddi di aawaz hauli-hauli door hundi gayi.
Vehde vich achanak ik ajeeb jeha bhaari sannaata chhaa gaya.
Bebe Paramjeet Kaur ne thanda saah bhareya te dupatta sir te theek kitta, "Haye sache paatshah, bacheyan nu sukh naal pohnchavin. Main jandi aan andar, sawer da paath karna hale."
Bebe pair ghasitdi hoyi andarle kamre vall chali gayi. Hun vehde vich sirf do jane khade bache san—Bapu Jarnail Singh te Pooja.
Bapu Jarnail Singh ne mud ke haveli de main gate vall kadam putte. Ohna ne jor naal gate nu band karke kunda la dita. Kunda laggde hi Bapu Jarnail Singh ghumme. Ohna de chehre te ik aisi be-parwah te mardaana chamak aa gayi jivein shikaari ne apne ilaake nu chaare passe ton band kar laya hove.
Oh lambe kadam puttde hoye sidha Pooja vall vadhan lagge. Pooja othe hi zameen te jami khadi si, usde hath suit de palle nu ghutt rahe san te usda seena dhak-dhak karke tezi naal utte-thalle ho reha si.
GT Road te Innova 100 di speed te daud rahi si. Gaddi de AC di thandak poori si, par car de andar ban reha mahaul poori tarah garm hunda ja reha si. Agle paase Raman steering fadhi drive kar reha si te Sameer usde naal wali seat te baitha rear-view mirror vich vaar-vaar piche takk reha si. Pichli seat te Inderjeet te Simran baithiyan san.
Inderjeet da Royal blue suit usde gundve pattan te poora khicheya hoya si. Usne Simran de hath nu fadheya, jo kambh reha si. "Ki gall Simran?"
Inderjeet ne rasili muskaan naal pucheya. "Pind di joon langhde hi tera rang inna laal kyu ho gaya? Aje taan Delhi vi nahi aaya!" Simran ne neevi paayi te dupatta thoda agge kitta.
"Nahi didi... bas pehli vaar inni door ja rahi aan. Ajeeb jeha darr lagda paya."
"Darr kis cheez da lagda?" Inderjeet ne ucchi aawaz 'ch aakhya taan jo agle dovan nu saaf sunayi deve.
"Videsh jaan ton... ya fer Sameer de naal ikko kamre 'ch saun ton?"
"Didi tusi vi na!" Simran ne sharma ke Inderjeet di baahn te hath maareya. Usdiyan goriyan goriyan gaallan te laali hor ghoodi ho gayi.
Sameer ne mirror vich Simran diyan sharmiliyan akkhan vich takkeya te bolya, "Bhabhi, tusi Simran nu aivein drayi jande o. Main kehda koi bhediya aan jo ehnu kacha kha jaaunga."
Raman ne hassde hoye keha, "Oye Sameer, tu bhediya na sahi, par jattan da munda taan hai hi aen! Thailand de beachan te jad eh bikini ya chhote kapde paaugi, tera sabar kithe tikna ae?"
Simran da saah gale vich atakk gaya. Usne hairani naal Inderjeet vall vekhya, "Didi! Bikini? Main kade aidaan de kapde nahi paye!"
Inderjeet Simran de kann kol mooh karke phusphusayi, "Pagal kudiye, Thailand 'ch koi suit paa ke thodi ghumda aa! Aapa uthe jake pehla khob shopping krange. Jadon Sameer tere gore pattan te naram lakk nu vekhuga, taan vekhin kivein pagal hunda ae."
"Didi please... chup karo na," Simran ne sharmaande hoye mooh dooje paase kar laya, par usde jism vich ik mitthi sarsrahat daud gayi.
Sameer ne mirror vichon dekhde hoye dabi aawaz 'ch keha, "Bhabhi sahi keh rahi aa Simran. Mangni taan apni ho hi chukki aa, hun parde kehdi gall de? Main taan kaddon da udeek reha si ki kadon aapa kalle hoiye."
"Suno ehna diyan gallan," Simran ne dabi aawaz 'ch keha. "Aje viah nahi hoya saada." "Viah taan bas kagzan te hunda raniye," Raman ne agge ton gall chhedi. "Asli viah taan othe hotel de kamre 'ch hona jithe saari raat AC chala ke dovan ne ik-dooje nu jakadna ae."
Inderjeet ne Raman de modhe te pichon hath rakheya te usdi dhaun te ungli pherde hoye boli, "Tusi Sameer nu sikhaun di bajaye apna dhyan rakho! Pind 'ch taan Bapu ji de darr naal dabe rehnde si, hun vekhdi aan Thailand jaake kinna jor dikhaunde o."
Raman ne ik hath naal gear badleya te dooje hath naal piche hath karke Inderjeet de gore patt nu ghutteya, "Othe chal fer dassanga. Sidha pool 'ch utaar ke na sutteya taan aakhin." "Haye Raman... agge vekho, drive karo changi tarah!" Inderjeet ne siskari bhari, par usne Raman da hath pattan ton piche nahi hataya.
Simran ne eh vekh ke akkhan jhuka laiyan. Usde kache jism vich ik anjan sekk ubalan lagga. Usne chori jehi nazar chuk ke mirror vich vekhya, jithe Sameer usdi gori hikk de ubhaar te nigaah tikayi baitha si.
"Simran," Sameer ne bilkul dabi aawaz 'ch pucheya. "Pattaya pohnch ke pehlan beach te jaana ki sidha hotel room vich?" Simran da dil tez dhadak reha si. Usne kambhde bullan naal aakhya, "Jithe didi te jiju jaan ge, othe hi..."
"Na ji na!" Inderjeet ne foran tokeya. "Saada kamra alag hona ae te tuhada alag. Saade aale paase aana vi mana hovega. Tu bas Sameer nu sambhalin, ehdi bhukh bohut tez laggdi aa mainu."
Sameer ne hassde hoye keha, "Bhabhi, Simran aje kachi kali aa, main aaram naal hi sambhaalanga. Pehlan poora ras peevanga, fer agge vadhanga."
Simran ne sharam de maare apna chehra dovan hathan vich luko leya. Usda jism andar tak garm ho chukka si. Gaddi highway te tezi naal daud rahi si, te chaaran de dimaag vich aunde dinan da nasha, hawas te azaadi da toofan poori tarah bhadak chukka si.
Delhi de Indira Gandhi International Airport de Terminal 3 te dupehar de 2 vajj chukke san. Thandi centralised AC di taaza hawa vich chaare jane airport andar dakhil hoye.
Pind di mitti te khetan da mahaul piche chhut chukka si, te hun chaare paase modern raunaq phaili hoyi si.
Raman te Sameer trolley te 4 wadde suitcase dhakkde hoye check-in counter vall vadh rahe san. Raman ne gaddi park karan ton baad apni jacket laah ke modhe te rakhi hoyi si, jadki Sameer de hath vich sab de passport te boarding documents da leather pouch fadheya hoya si. Inderjeet te Simran ohna de bilkul piche turr rahiyan san.
Airport di chamak-damak vich Inderjeet da royal blue suit te lachakdi chaal aale-dwale de lokan diyan nazran khich rahi si. Simran aje vi thodi ghabrayi hoyi si, usne dupatta seene te poora leya hoya si te vaar-vaar airport diyan departure screenan vall dekh rahi si.
"Sameer, oye row number 4 vall jana aapa, Thai Airways da counter saamne hi aa," Raman ne agge turde hoye aakhya. Sameer ne trolly nu modya te counter kol trolley rokk layi. Usne piche mud ke Simran vall vekhya, jisde mathe te thandak de baavjood halke paseene diyan boondan chamak rahiyan san.
"Simran, passport fad apna," Sameer ne nede aake dabi aawaz vich keha. "Aidaan dardi kyu aen jivein pehli vaar thaane aayi hove?"
Simran boli, "Thane ton ghatt lagda eh sab? Inne gaur naal check karde ne, security aale kivein ghoor rahe ne saare."
Inderjeet ne Simran de modhe te hath rakheya te khull ke hass payi, "Pagal na ban Simran. International airport aa, checking taan honi hi aa. Tu bas aah suit da palla thoda dhilla chhad, saah lai aaram naal. Thailand pohnchan ton pehlan hi thakk jaavengi taan othe raat nu ki karengi?"
"Didi tusi har gall nu ose paase kyu lai jande o?" Simran ne dabi aawaz 'ch neevi paa ke aakhya, par usdiyan goriyan gaallan te laali fer vadh gayi.
Counter te bag drop karan ton baad chaare jane immigration te security clearance vall vadhe. Thodi der vich saari kaagzi kaarvayi mukki te oh boarding gate number 32 de lounge vich aa baithe. Glass windows de dooje paase big Boeing 777 jahaaz khada si, jis te Thai Airways da logo si.
Raman ne kursi te baithde hoye lamma saah chhaddeya, "Lao bhai, sab ho gaya clear. Hun bas adhe ghante 'ch boarding shuru honi aa. Chaar ghante di flight aa sidha Bangkok di, te othon do ghante di cab Pattaya private villa di!"
Sameer Simran de bilkul naal wali kursi te aa baitha. Usne apna goda Simran de naram godde naal jod ditta. Simran ne halka jeha piche hatan di koshish kiti, par Sameer ne usda hath fadh ke apne patt te rakh leya.
"Chhad do Sameer... sab vekh rahe ne," Simran ne phusphusaunde hoye keha. "Vekhan de," Sameer ne Simran diyan akkhan vich dekh ke keha "Kise nu ki pata asi kaun aan? Pind 'ch taan tu nazran vi nahi si milaun dindi. Hun taan hath fadhna mera haq banda aa."
Simran da dil tezi naal dhadak reha si. Usne hauli jehi aawaz 'ch pucheya, "Tusi sachi othe mere naal... matlab didi horan ton bina alag kamre 'ch rahonge?"
"Hor ki tere bapu nu naal laike jaana main?" Sameer ne hassde hoye chhedya. "Private pool wala suite book kitta main tere layi. Paani 'ch howange tu te main, te saari sharam ikko vaar 'ch door kar deni main." Simran ne sharma ke akkhan meech layiyan, par hath piche nahi khicheya.
Inderjeet ne coffee de do cup fadhe ik Raman nu te ik cup Simran nu ditta. Usne Raman de kol baithde hoye usde kann kol apna mooh kitta, "Gaddi 'ch jo gallan maarde si, airport te aake thande taan ni pai gaye jatt sahab?"
Raman ne coffee da ghutt bhareya te Inderjeet de lakk te hath dhar ke ghutteya, "Jatt kade thanda nahi hunda Inder. Flight 'ch baithan de bas... jiddan hi lights off hoyiyan, othe hi tera haal vekhin ki karda haan."
"Acha ji? Jahaaz 'ch vi sharam nahi auni tuhanu?" Inderjeet ne rasili muskaan ditti. "Sharam pind 'ch chhad aaye aan," Raman ne aakhya te dovan ne ik-dooje diyan akkhan vich chadhda nasha vekhya.
Ose vele loudspeaker te ucchi aawaz goonji: “Attention passengers, Thai Airways flight TG316 for Bangkok is now ready for boarding at Gate 32. All passengers please proceed for boarding.”
"Chalo bhai!" Raman ne cup dustbin 'ch sutteya te tyaar ho gaya. Chaare jane line vich lagg ke aerobridge vall turr paye. Jahaaz de darwaze te hi air hostess ne hath jod ke sawagat kitta. Raman te Inderjeet diyan seats agge san, jadki Sameer te Simran diyan seats theek ohna de piche khidki aale paase san.
Seats te baithde hi Sameer ne seatbelt banni te Simran di madad kiti. Jiddan hi Sameer da hath Simran de dhidd te hikk kol lagg ke gaya, Simran de jism vich current daud gaya. Jahaaz ne run-way te chalna shuru kitta te tezi naal asmaan vall udaan bhar layi. Dilli shehar thalle chhota hunda gaya te chaare jawan dilaan vich Thailand di khed, khulle romance te azaadi da toofan poore zor naal ubalan lagga.
Jiddan hi Innova di aawaz pind di firni ton paar ho gyi, haveli de andar ik sunsaan, bhaari te ajeeb jeha jismani nasha phail gaya. Main gate band ho chukka si. Bebe Paramjeet Kaur andarle kamre vich baith ke mala pheran laggi si te paath de shabad dabi aawaz vich padh rahi si.
Pooja haveli de khulle vehde de vichkar kalli khadi si. Usde kann aje vi Innova de door jaan di aawaz nu mehsoos kar rahe san. Usda cream colour suit thandi hawa naal hauli-hauli hill reha si, par usde andarli garmi agg bann ke fattan nu tyaar si. Pichon khundi di thakk-thakk aawaz aayi.
Pooja ne ikk jhatke naal piche mooh ghumaya. Bapu Jarnail Singh lamme kadam puttde hoye sidha usde vall aa rahe san. Ohna ne pagg poori tight bnni hoyi si, safed kurte de agle button khulle san te chaudi baalan wali hikk te mardaana rohb poora lishak reha si.
Bapu ji Pooja de bilkul kol aake khad gaye. Ohna di hikk Pooja de sir de level te si. "Turr gaye saare," Bapu Jarnail Singh ne doongi, garajdi te rasili aawaz vich keha. "Hun poori haveli te meri sardaari aa... te tu mere reham te aen."
Pooja da gala sukk gaya. Usne neevi paayi te dabi aawaz vich keha, "Bapu ji... Bebe ji andar ne... aje paath karde paye ne..."
Bapu Jarnail Singh ne bina ik pal gawaye apna hath Pooja di surahi wargi gori dhaun te rakh ditta te usda mooh zor naal utte kitta. Ohna diyan tez, nasheeliya akkhan sidhiyan Pooja de bullhan te geiyan.
"Paramjeet agle do ghante kamre chon baahar nahi aundi," Bapu ji ne Pooja de kann kol jhukk ke keha, ohna di daadhi Pooja di gal te chubhi. "Te jatt 2 ghante sabar nahi kar sakda. Chal andar kamre vich."
Pooja da jism kambh gaya. Usne Bapu ji de kurte nu fadheya te poori hawas naal saah chhaddeya. Bapu Jarnail Singh ne usda hath fadheya te lambe kadam puttde hoye usnu andar vall khich leya. Haveli de band darwazeyan de piche hawas, taakat te lukkve rishteyan da asli toofan hun khull ke garjan layi taiyar si.
Bapu Jarnail Singh ne darwaza andar ton band karke kundi laa ditti. Kamre vich achanak ik bhaari garmi te sannaata chhaa gaya. Baahar vehde vich dhupp chadhn lagg payi si, par is thande kamre vich sekk vadh reha si.
Pooja bed de kinare kol khadi si. Usne cream colour da suit paaya hoya si, sir ton dupatta sarak ke modhe te aa diggeya si. Usda gora rang thoda laal hoya peya si te saah thode tez chal rahe san.
"Bapu ji..." Pooja ne dabi aawaz vich keha, "Tusi darwaza kyu band kitta? Bebe ji je paath chhad ke paani wgera peen ja kuj lain baahar aa gaye taan?"
Bapu Jarnail Singh ne khundi mez de aasre khadi kitti te pagg da pech thoda dhilla karke parna laah ke manji te sutt ditta. Oh lambe kadam puttde hoye sidhe Pooja de saamne aake khad gaye.
"Paramjeet agle do ghante nahi utthdi," Bapu ji ne bhaari, garajdi aawaz vich keha te Pooja di thoddi nu apni ungli naal utte chukk leya. "Te je utth vi gayi, taan ohnu pata ae ki jatt kamre 'ch aaram kar reha ae. Tu dass... tu aje vi kyu dardi payi aen?"
Pooja ne nazran churaun di koshish kiti, "Main dardi nahi Bapu ji... bas aje subah-subah... haveli da kamm vi peya saara."
"Kamm sare baad 'ch honge," Bapu ji ne keha te bina ik pal gawaaye apna dooja hath Pooja de lakk te rakh ditta. Ohna diyan ungliyan kameez de thallon maas nu daboun laggiyan. "Pehlan jatt di bhukh shant hovegi. Raat nasha aje tak mere khoon 'ch daud reha ae."
"Ahhh... Bapu ji..." Pooja de bullan chon ik siskari nikli. Usne Bapu ji di chaudi hikk te hath rakh ke thoda piche hatan da nakhra kitta, "Tusi bohut ziddi o... ik vaar vi nahi sochde kise baare."
"Jatt kade dooji vaar nahi sochda, kudiye," Bapu ji ne usnu ikko jhatke naal apne seene naal laa leya.
Dovan de jism aapas vich bhid gaye. Bapu ji de kurte de khulle buttonan vichon nikli garm hawa Pooja de seene te laggi. Bapu ji ne ik hath Pooja di kamar de piche paaya te dooje hath naal usdi kurti da palla fadh ke ikko vaar 'ch utte nu khich ditta.
"Khol aah kapde saare," Bapu ji ne rohb naal aakhya. "Pind de suitan 'ch hun khedan da vela nahi."
Pooja ne doven baahan utte chukkiyan. Bapu ji ne usdi kurti laah ke bed te sutt ditti. Hun Pooja sirf chitti bra te salwar vich khadi si. Usde gore, gundve mumme bra vichon baahar nu aa rahe san te patla gora lakk hauli-hauli kambh reha si.
Bapu Jarnail Singh diyan akkhan vich hawas da nasha hor chadh gaya. Ohna ne Pooja de modheyan te hath pherde hoye keha, "Kashni akkhan te gora cham... Inderjeet bilkul sahi kehndi si. Tere jism vich rabb ne poora ras bhareya hoya ae."
Pooja da chehra sharam de maare poora laal ho gaya. Usne hethan mooh karke keha, "Inderjeet ne pata nahi ki ki gallan kitiyan tuhade sareyan naal... tusi vi usdi gallan 'ch aa gaye."
"Gallan 'ch nahi aaya, apniyan akkhan naal vekhya main," Bapu ji ne aakhya te dovan hathan naal Pooja di bra nu ghutteya.
"Uffff maa!" Pooja ne Bapu ji diyan baahan nu fadheya te aakad gayi. "Hauli Bapu ji... dard hunda ae."
"Dard 'ch hi taan jatt da maza lukkeya," Bapu ji ne Pooja de modhe te jhukk ke usdi dhaun te daadhi ragad ditti te danda da ik nishaan chhad ditta.
Pooja de moohon ik lammi cheekh nikli, jo usne Bapu ji de modhe te mooh luko ke daba layi. Usda poora pinda agg vaangu tapan lagga. Usne Bapu ji de kurte nu khicheya, "Bapu ji... tusi kapde taan laaho apne... Ja aidaan hi saara zor kaddhonge mera?"
Bapu Jarnail Singh ne ik muskaan ditti. Ohna ne jhatke naal apna kurta laah ke paase sutt ditta. Ohna di chaudi, baalan naal bhari hikk te pattan da rohb saamne aa gaya. Ohna ne pajame da naala kholya te pajama thalle sutt ditta.
Jiddan hi Bapu ji da mota te lohe warga aakadeya hoya lunn baahar aeya, Pooja diyan akkhan paatiyan diyan paatiyan reh gaiyan. Usne thukk nigalde hoye dabi aawaz vich keha, "Haye rabba... Bapu ji... eh taan pehlan ton vi wadh aakdeya hoya ae... eh mere andar kivein jaauga?"
"Jivein us shaam gaya si, ovein hi jaaunga," Bapu Jarnail Singh ne hass ke keha. "Chal, ghodi ban bed te... ya sidhi paven gi?"
Pooja ne kambhde hathan naal apni salwar da naala kholya te salwar khol thalle sutt ditti. Oh poori nangi hoke bed te chadh gayi. Usdi gulabi, resham wargi naram fuddi bilkul saaf dikh rahi si, jis te halki-halki nami chamak rahi si.
Pooja bed te pith karke goddeyan bhaar ho gayi. Usne apni gol te bhari bund nu piche nu kitta te mucchan aale Bapu vall vekh ke boli, "Bapu ji... pehlan hauli paaiyo... bohut mota aa tuhada."
Bapu Jarnail Singh bina ik second vi gawaaye bed te chadhe. Ohna ne Pooja de gore chittadan te ik zordaar thappad maareya.
CHATAAKH!
"Haaayee maa meriye!" Pooja di cheekh nikal gayi te usda lakk thalle nu ho gaya.
Bapu ji ne usde dovan pattan nu zor naal kholya. Ohna ne apne mote lunn da topa Pooja di gilli fuddi de mooh te tikaya. Fuddi chon nikli garm bhaaf lunn te laggi.
"Fadh chadar nu changi tarah!" Bapu ji ne garaj ke aakhya te ikko tagda dhakka maareya.
Zhhhupp!
Addha mota lunn ikko vaar 'ch Pooja di tang, gilli fuddi nu cheerda hoya andar dhass gaya.
"Ahhhhhhh! Bapu jiii!" Pooja ne dovan hathan naal bed di chaadar nu mutthi vich fadd leya. Usdiyan akkhan chon paani nikal gaya. "Haye mar gayi... bohut tez aa... ruko ik mint... saah lain deyo!"
Bapu Jarnail Singh ne usde lakk nu dovan hathan naal ajeha jakad leya jivein lohe da shikanja hove. Ohna ne ik pal da vi aaram nahi ditta te dooja poora dhakka maar ditta.
Phaaaat!
Poora 8-inch da lamba lun jad tak Pooja di bachi-khuchi fuddi de andarle hisse vich ja vajja. Pooja da seena bed naal lagg gaya te usde moohon behisaab siskariyan niklan laggiyan.
"Dass kudiye... kidaan da lagda jatt da zor?" Bapu ji ne pichon lambe-lambe te tez dhakke maarde hoye pucheya.
Thapp... Thapp... Thapp... Thapp!
Bapu ji de pattan di Pooja de chittadan naal takkar poore kamre vich goonjan laggi. Har dhakke te Pooja da jism agge nu jhatka khanda si.
"Bapu ji... ahh... ahh... bohut motta aa... poora cheer ditta tusi," Pooja ne bed te matha rakhde hoye aakhya. "Inna zor taan kade kise ne nahi maareya... ahh... thok do mainu... poora thok do!"

Dhadh... Dhadh... Dhadh!
Kamre vich sirf thapp-thapp di aawaz, dovan de Tez saah, te Pooja diyan dabiyan hoyiyan cheekhan goonj rahiyan san. Fuddi da gilla paani lunn de ragad naal jhag ban ke baahar aa reha si.
"Pooja... aah vekh haveli da asli mard!" Bapu ji ne lambe dhakke maarde hoye haanf ke keha. "Chaar din koi rok-tok nahi... roz tainu aidaan hi nangi karke thokeya karunga!"
"Haan Bapu ji... ahh... roz tuhadi gulaam ban ke rahangi... ufff... hor tez... hor doonge maaro!" Pooja ne poori besharmi naal apni bund nu piche nu zor-zor naal dhakkna shuru kar ditta.
Kareeb 20 mint tak bina ruke dhuan-dhaar dhakke maaran ton baad, Pooja da poora pinda aakad gaya. Usdi fuddi ne Bapu ji de lunn nu ajeha ghutteya ki Pooja da paani chhut gaya te oh bed te digg payi.

"Aaaahhhh!" Bapu ji ne lamba saah chhaddeya te Pooja di nangi pith te digg paye.
Kamre vich dhupp poori tarah utar aayi si te dovan de haanfde jism paseene naal naha rahe san. Haveli vich ik nawa nasha aa gya si, jadki door asmaan vich Thailand di flight azaadi vall vaddhi ja rahi si.
