Update:-32
Nischal ke najron ke samne wo bhayanak sa khoonkhar janwar, piche nirdosh logon ki bhid jisme uski sabse karibi bhi thi. Ladai karna yahan to sambhaw nahi tha kyonki collateral damage me kayi sare log mare jate. Yahan se bhaga bhi nahi ja sakta tha, kyonki wo janwar picha karte waqt apne raste me aane wale har kisi ko marta chala jayega… aur yadi Nahi lade to wo nischal ko bicho bich chir kar nikal jayega aur sabko lagega ki yahan koi jadu hua tha… waqt jyada nahi tha aur kuch hi palon me nischal ko faisla lena tha.
Nischal ne najar ghuma kar mahol ka jayja liya. Hawa ki raftar aur tabhi achanak logon ki bijli ke taar se chingariyan uthti hui dikhi. Iss se pahle ki koi hadsa hota Nischal bina kisi ki najar me aaye kuch logon ko bijli ke taar ke raste se hata chuka tha.
Log dar ke mare bhagne lage. Turant hi uss area ki light bhi kat di gayi aur koi bhi apriya ghatna hone se bach gaya. Log itne dare huye the ki kisi ko pata tak na chala ki bijli ki taar tootkar kuch der tak hawa me hi kyon rah gayi aur jabtak wo niche giri tabtak log surakhsit the.
Nandni bhi Ansh aur Nischal ko lekar apne ghar nikal gayi. Ghar laut'te hi doctor sahab aaj ki raat fir se lab ke liye nikal gaye aur Nandni khana banane lagi. Tabhi Nischal uske pass aakar kahne laga… "Aaj raat Kasak ko wahan se nikalna hoga"..
Nandni:- Kya hua, tumhe kuch pata chala hai Nischal..
Nischal:- Main Chirag se akele me mila tha, usne Kasak ko kisi janwar ke roop me dekha tha.. jo kisi dusre janwar ko chir kar uska khun pi rahi thi.
Nandni:- Oh My God… Nischal mujhe bahut dar lag raha hai. Iska matlab wo wahan kisi ko bhi mar sakte hain...
Nischal:- Zoren washi.. jinhe khun, logon ki tarap aur uske dard ki siskiyan dekhne ka ajib nasha hota hai.
Nandni:- Tumhare kahne ka kya matlab hai..
Nischal… Itni detail batane ka samany nahi hai, filhaal main ja raha hun Kasak ko chhudane lautkar sab bataunga..
Nandni:- Oye ruk main bhi chalti hun… tu raste me sari baten mujhe bata dena…
Nischal:- Pagal hai kya wahan bahut khatra hoga… mat ja..
Nandni:- Main bhi prithwi washi hun.. koi bhi khatra mujhe dara nahi sakti.
Nischal:- thik hai barboli chal fir.. kitni jaldi tum log biti baten bhulte ho… bhul gayi us din 5 bar marte-marte bachi thi..
Nandni taiyar hoti apne kamre se hi kahne lagi… "wo pahli baar tha ullu… ab thode na main darti hun"…
Kuch hi der me track suit, jute aur upar sport bra pahan kar chali aayi… uska huliya dekhte huye…. "Tu kya race me participate karne ja rahi hai"..
Nandni… Are har mauke ke liye hume taiyar hona chahiye.. kahin koi ladai hui to mujhe wahan se bhagne me aasani hogi…
"Haan, agar us janwar ke muh me jane se bach gayi to"..…
Dono hi thodi der me Shresh ke ghar ke liye nikal gaye… Idhar Nischal ke Grah Aizem se uske do satir marak, Apini ke pate par pahunch gaye the aur uske ke kuch der baad… Apini, Josefer aur Tanisha chidhe huye laut rahe the. Unhe bus is baat ka afsos ho raha tha ki aaj wo bijli ka taar nahi hota to Nischal gaya tha...
Teeno hi apne janwar ke sath jaise hi ander prawesh kiye unhe Aizem se aaye mehmano ke bhi darshan ho gaye. Abhi kuch baten shuru bhi nahi hui thi ki bahar se unka ek admi ander aate huye kahne laga… Nischal aa gaya…
Nischal ka Naam sunte hi wo jagah khali ho gayi aur sab kahin chhip chuke the. Idhar Nandni aur Nischal dono jaise hi gate par pahunche... "Dekh tu to bahut bada fighter hai, kyon na tu Daya ke tarah darwaja tod kar ander jaye aur sare criminal ko maar kar Kasak ko wapas le aaye"..
Nischal:- Tu chal chupchap, jaise main le ja raha hun.. raste me tujhe Zoren wasiyon ke bare me sab bataya na, ab chal..
Nandni:- tu ek kaam kar jakar Kasak ko bacha kar la aur main yahin tera intzar karti hun..
Nischal:- Unhe pata hai ki hum yahan hain.. lekin shayad sabhi apne asli roop me hain isliye chhip gaye hain kahin.. tu yahan khadi rahi to khatra hai tujhe..
Nandni:- kya matlab tera.. wo log jante hain ki hum yahan hai..
Nischal:- Duffer kahin ki mere blood pressure kyon high kar rahi… Dekh nahi rahi darwaja khula hai.. wahan car ki light jal rahi hai.. ander ka darwaja khula hai aur kisi ka kuch pata nahi.
Nandni:- Nischal sun na..
Nischal:- kya hua…
Nandni:- mujhe na jor ki bathroom aayi hai.. main kya soch rahi thi tu jakar bacha la Kasak ko aur main flat par jati hun..
"Tu kaam badhayegi.. ye le pahan, wo janwar dikhe to batana".. Nischal, Nandni ke aakhon par ek high wave glass chadha diya aur usse gode me utha kar sidha ussi kabad khane me chal diya…
Wahi badbu, wahi siran bilkul andhera kabad khana. Nischal ne tourch jalaya aur Nandni hanuman chalisa padhti hui aage badhne lagi. Dono badhte huye kabadkhane ke us hisse mein pahunche jahan Kasak bandhi hui thi.
Nischal ne ek bar fir jab Kasak ko karib se dekha to ussi ko dhyan se dekhne laga. "Nischal.. Nischal".. Nandni apna gala fad kar 2 baar Nuschal pukari lekin dar se uski awaz nikal hi nahi rahi thi. Itne me wo dobara jor-jor se Nischal bolne ki kosis ki aur uske hath ko jor-jor se hilayi…
Nischal, Nandni ko dekhte huye puchne laga kya hua.. Nandni kosis to kar rahi thi lekin uske halakh se awaz nahi nikal rahi thi.. isi bich wo Nischal ko aur bhi jod se hilati hui upar ke ore dekhne ka ishara ki…
Nischal ne jaise hi tourch ki raushni upar kiya … Nichal ko apna sar kisi bade janwar ke muh ke ander dikhne laga.. jo uske sar ko chabane ke irade se apna muh band kar hi chuka tha lekin uss se pahle Nischal niche baith gaya aur Nandni ki shwans chadh gayi… muh band karte karte uss janwar ne Nischal ke upar kuch ganda aur chipchipa uske upar gira diya..
Nichal khada hokar uss janwar ko ghurte huye dekha aur uske bade se muh par apne chhotu se hathon se 2 thappad marte huye kahne laga… "Sale dikhta nahi ladies kitni dar gayi hai… Nandu dar mat.. main jinda hun.. aur tujhe darane ki saza de raha hun… beta sar uthakar dekh to sahi… dusri baar me dar nahi lagta hai na"…
Nandni apni aakhen munde Nischal ko aur jor se pakadti hui… "jai hanuman gyan gun sagar".. lagatar padhne lagi.
Nischal se thappad khane ke baad wo janwar wapas diwal par piche chadha aur dobara apna Jabra fade wo Nichal ke ore badha…. Jaise he uska baḍa sa fata muh, Nischal ke chehre ke pass pahuncha, wo apni jagah ruk gaya. Kuch pal wo yuṅ he ruka raha aur uss ke baad wo janwar tej awaz me chillate huye ek bar fir apne muh se kuch ganda chip-chipa dravya ki barish karke Nischal ke upar se hata, aur wahan se bhag gaya”
Nischal, khada ho kar khud ko saaf karne laga. Uss ka badan pura chip-chipa ho gaya tha…. “Waise itna bura bhi nahi. Par ye bhag kidhar gaya” Nischal usse har kone ḍhuṅḍhne laga…..

“Aaj tumhara janwar bach gaya, warna wo mara jata”…
“Ha ha ha, Achha mazak tha, apne aakhon se itna kuch dekhne ke baad bhi”…
“Tumhe itna viswas kyoṅ hai apne iss janwar par. Jis ke upar tumhara janwar hawi ho raha tha, wo uss se bhi baḍa janwar hai”.
“Viswas isliye hai kyonki ye janwar, tumhare iss aadmi ko pahle bhi chir chuka hai. Aur aaj to nigal he jata, bacha liya tum logoṅ ne”
Nischal, Nandni aur Kasak ke jate hi sablog wapas band kamre ke ander pahunche.. jahan Aizem wale Nischal ki badai karte huye uss janwar ko nischal ke aage bauna bata rahe the wahin Apini, apne janwar ko Nischal ka kaal shabit karne me laga hua tha.
Ruki aur Soki tha to Nischal ka dushman, lekin sath he sath uss ka bahut baḍa fan bhi tha. Nischal ki shaan me abhi usne he kaside paḍhe the, jis ka jabaw Josefer ne diya tha. Sabaiya ke ye dono he guptachar, dimaġ se kafi tej aur sab se shatir mane jate the.
Ruki…. Oh itna vishwas apne janwar par. Achha dhyan se suno main ek kahani tumhe sunata huṅ…..
“Ek sasak tha… Abinasbhi ke naam se wo jana jata tha. Uss Abhinasbhi ke pass 100000 janawaroṅ ki fauj thi. Janwar wo aise the jaise tumhare 10 janwar ke barabar ek janwar ho. Aizem grah par tab humari seema bahut he chhoti hua karti thi aur wo sasak Aizem grah ke bilkul madhya me sasan kiya karta tha”.
“Uss ke sabhi sima ki surksha uss ke sainikoṅ ke sath uss ka wo janwar karta tha. Oh ek baat to batana bhul gaya. Wo Abhinasbhi sasak jo tha, itna shaktishali hone ke bawjood bhi kafi saral, aur shantipriya tha. Unhi dino ek chhota sa ladka, kyoṅ Suko chhota ladka he kahenge na”
Suko…. Haaṅ Ruki, chhota ladka he kahenge….
Ruki…. “Haaṅ to ek chhota sa ladka tha humare seema me. Apni maa ka chaheta aur bilkul shantipriya. Par humare seema ke jo sasak hai na wo bilkul bhi shantipriya nahi hain. Khair sasak ki baat jane do, wo to baad ki kahani hai. Pahle tum uss chhote se ladke ki kahani suno”.
“Wo chhota sa ladka khelte huye ek baar uttari seema se uss Abhinasbhi ki seema me ghus gaya. Uss waqt Abhinasbhi bhi ussi seema ka muayna kar rahe the. Jab wo ladka uss seema me ghusa, tab uss ke upar 10 sainikoṅ ne ek sath humla bola, aur usse giraftaar kar ke Abhinasbhi ke pass le gaye. Abhinasbhi ne jab uss chhote se ladkey ko dekha to itna he pucha… “Kya ġalti se idhar aa gaye ho”… Kya tum sab jante ho uss ladkey ne uss sasak ki aaṅkhoṅ me dekh kar kya bola tha”….
Apini…. Bola hoga, haaṅ, ġalti se iss ore chala aaya….
Ruki….. “Ha ha ha, nahi uss ne aisa nahi kaha. Uss ladke ne Abhinasbhi ki aakhon me aakhen dal kar kaha… “Wo to bas iss seema ke ander, uss ke sainikoṅ ki shakti ko parakhne aaya tha”. Raja uss ki baat par hasne lage, aur turant uss ne apne sipahiyoṅ se uss ladkey ko chhodne ka hukum diya”.
“Abhinasbhi uss chhote ladkey ko khula chhod kar, apne sainikoṅ ke sath shakti parikshaṇ karne kaha. Uss chhote se ladkey ne palak jhapakne se pahle he wahan khadey 10 sainikoṅ ko maar kar jamin par gira chuka tha”.
“Bache sainikoṅ ne jab ye dekha, to un logoṅ ne apna ek janwar khula chhod diya. Uss janwar ki dahaṛ itni joṛ ki thi, ki sun’ne wale ka aadha hausala wahiṅ past ho jaye. Ṭhik tumhare janwar jaise uss janwar ne bhi uss par humla kiya. Wo ladka niche tha aur wo janwar upar, aur jaise he wo uss ladkey ko marne wala tha, raja ne usse rok diya”.
“Jab wo ladka khada hua to raja muskurate huye kahne lage, “Abhi tum laḍai ke liye bahut chhote ho. Iss me tumhari jaan ja sakti hai”. Wo chhota sa ladka uss raja ki baat par joṛ se haste huye kahne laga…. “Wo to mere palṭu janwar ke sath khelne jaisa tha. Ye uss ki kismat hai jo aaj wo janwar bach gaya”….
“Abhinasbhi, uss ladke ki baat par janwar ko fir se chhodne ka hukum de diya. Dekhne wale batate hain ki wo janwar aur wo ladka jab aamne samne khadey the, to aisa lag raha tha jaise ek baḍe parwat ke samne chhota sa chaṭṭan khada hai”.
“Jab laḍai shuru hui thi, to wo ladka Abhinasbhi ke aakhon me ek baar fir dekhte huye let gaya. Aur jab wo janwar uss chhote se ladke ke dono hath daboch kar uss ke upar tha, tab wo attahas bhadi awaz me hunkar bhaḍa…. “Issi jagah se he tum ne apne janwar ko haṭa kar ye jataya na ki tumne meri jaan bachayi”….,
“Abhinasbhi ko laga, aaj ye ladka apne baḍbolepan ke karaṇ marega. Lekin uss chhan raja ki aaṅkh fati ki fati rah gayi jab wo ladka teji dikhate huye uss janwar ke niche se haṭa, aur dekhte he dekhte uss janwar ke panjon se hote huye, uske kandhe se ho kar, uss ke sir tak pahunch gaya. Wo ladka uss janwar ke sir par chaḍh kar, ṭhik uss ke madhya sir par apne hath ke war se uss janwar ka sir fad diya, aur uss ke ander ghus gaya. Sir se ho kar pet tak, sab farte wo bahar aaya tha”.
“Jab wo bahar nikla to raja ke aakhon ke samne wo bhimkay janwar dharasayi hota, jamin par gir raha tha. Raja uss ka parakram dekh kar dang rah gaya aur udhar uss ke sainik ko laga, kahin ye ladka Abhinasbhi ko na maar de, isliye uss ne ek sath apne 10 janawaroṅ ko chhod diya”.
“Wahan maujood kisi bhi sainik aur raja ko kuch bhi najar nahi aa raha tha. Gola bana kar sabhi janwar khadey the aur bich me wo ladka. Kisi ko kuch najar nahi aa raha tha, bus janwar ki chinghar sunai de rahi thi. Ek baar hi wo ladka dikha jo ek janwar ka sir phaḍ kar, chhalang lagate wo ladka sidha Abhinasbhi ke kadmoṅ me kuda. Idhar wo ladka jab tak hawa se jamin par aaya, udhar wo sare janwar bhi jamin par ḍher ho gaye”.
“Aur aap sab abhi sun rahe the, mere aaṅkhoṅ dekha aur bilkul sachi ghaṭna, Nischal ke bare me. Ek aisa shikari, jab wo shikar par nikalta hai to kai faujeṅ kam pad jati hain. Tum agar Nischal se jit rahe ho to tum bas ye samjh lena ki wo tumhe jita raha hai”.
Apini…. Samjh gaya. Waise tumhare gaṛh par kewal yahi ek hai, ya iss jaisa aur bhi hain.
Suko…. Ha, ha, ha… yadi kewal ye akela apne jaisa hota, to kya pura Aizem grah iss ka nahi hota. Haaṅ iss jaisa to koi nahi, lekin iss ka matlab ye nahi ki isse haraya nahi ja sakta. Ek baar haar kar bhaga aaya hai, iss baar isse hara kar iss ki aakhri manzil tak pahuṅchana hai. Bas tum sab dhairya rakho.
Apini…. Fir humare maksad ka kya hoga. Ye to humare raste me aa raha hai.
Ruki…. To tum sab iss ke raste se hat jao. Akalmandi issi me hai ki Nischal ko bhul jao. Abhi to wo apni puri urja me lag raha hai, iss waqt to tum usse chhu bhi na paoge”
Apini…. Fir hum kya kareṅ…
Suko…. Jo hum sab karne wale hain… iss par najar rakho. Waqt hamesa ussi ka sath de, aisa sambhaw nahi. To bas intzar karo, aur intzar karo Nischal ke achhe waqt jane ka, aur humare achha waqt aane ka….
Josefer…. Aur ye waqt kab aayega….
Suko…. Wo to waqt ki marji hai. Hum waqt ke ġulaam hain, waqt humara nahi, isliye intzar karo apna sahi waqt aane ka.
Apini…. Hmmm !!! Ṭhik hai, hum sab uss waqt tak rukenge… lekin mujhe tum dono se wada chahiye ki Malkia ko kuch nahi hoga…
Ruki…. Ha, ha, ha…. Yadi wo tumhare Malkia ke piche hai to mera viswas rakho thumhari Malkia ko kuch nahi hoga. Haaṅ lekin tum sab uss ke pichhe paḍe rahe to tum sab ko jaroor kuch na kuch ho jayega. Isliye dur raho uss se, aur jaisa hum kahte hain bas karte jao.
Josefer…. Tumhari salah par hum gaur to jaroor karte, lekin jo itna baṛa parakrami hai, usse ek baar apni najron ke samne parakhna to paṛega na… kyoṅ Apini..
Apini…. Haaṅ bilkul….
Idhar uss ghar me…. Nischal
“Pata nahi kahaṅ bhag gaya, kahin koi mujh par najar to nahi diye”….. fir Nischal khud he baḍa sa jibh nikalte….. “Aaeeeeee….. Najar, diye hai to dete rahe, main chala apna kaam karne”
Nischal ne Kasak ke bandhan khol ḍale. Usse bahut jagane ki kosis bhi kiya lekin wo jagi nahi. Jab wo nahi jagi to Nischal usse uṭha kar bahar tak le aaya…. “Nandu, sara kaam ho gaya hai, car le kar spot par aao, Kasak behosh hai”
Flat pahunchkar Nischal ne Kasak ko sofe par litaya aur uss chipchipa dravya ko saaf karne wo sidha bathroom me ghusa, lekin bathroom me jane se pahle Nandni ko khana taiyar karne ke liye bolta gaya.
Jab Nischal bathroom se nikal raha tha tab Nandni uske bathroom ke darwaje par khadi thi… "tumhe kya hua aur khana kyon nahi bana rahi"..
Nandni:- Nahi bus tu mere sath rah, mere paun kanp rahe hain..
Nischal:- aur mera khana..
Nandni:- bhukkad kahin ka mujhe hi kha ja… sun'na mujhe dar lag raha hai.. tu mere pass rah na..
Nischal:- Acha thik hai chal tu khana banana main tere pass rahunga.
Nandni:- aaj tu hi bana de na.. main kal bana lungi…
Nischal:- off o.. kitna dar rahi hai… chal chhod ye sab.. college shuru ho raha to abhi hum chalte hain bahar… kuch shopping, wahin se dinner aur der raat wapsi.. thoda ghumegi to dar bhi chala jayega…
Nandni:- haan thik hai chal…
Nischal:- oye pagal main towel me hun aur tu track suit me wo bhi upar tune wo apni stylish sport bra pahan rakhi hai..
Nandni… haan to jaldi kapde pahan na..
Nichal apne kapde nikalkar jab wapas muda tab bhi Nandni wahin baithi rahi… Ab kya itna dar lag raha hai ki kahin jayegi hi nahi…
Nandni ne "haan" me apna sar hila kar jawab di aur wahin baithi rahi. Nischal bhi jaldi se taiyar hua fir le jakar Nandni ke upar ek t-shirt dalwaya aur dono wahan se nikal gaye… shopping, dinner aur batchit ke bich Nandni ka dar bhi kahin gayab ho gaya… kuch der baad dono, jab ghum fir kar wapas complex me pahunche to wahan bhi afra-tafri ka mahol tha.
Un logoṅ ke samne he police van uss complex me ghusi. Nandni, wathchman se…. “Kya ho gaya colony me, jo raat ke 12 baje itna gossip chal raha hai, aur police tak aa pahuṅchi”.
Wathchman…. Pata nahi maim sahab, upar ke flat me koi lafda hai. Sayad koi laḍki kidnapped hui hai aur kidnapper ne usse yahiṅ la kar rakha hai.
Nandni…. Kitna bewakoof kidnapper hai, usse le kar bhi aaye to aise jagah me, upar se usse khula chhod rakha hai chillane ke liye.
Nischal…. Hume kya karna hai, chalo hum apne flat me chalte hain….
Dono upar apne floor me aaye. Apne floor par chalti hui Nandni…. “Hey Nischal dekh na, lagta hai apne he floor par kand hua hai”
Thoḍa aur aage badhe to Nischal…. “Nandu, apne floor par he nahi, balki lagta hai, apne flat ke ass-pass he kand hua hai”
Bhiḍ ko chirte jab dono thoda aur aage badhe to Sawalker unhe mil gaya…. “Mujhe pura ummid tha, ye kand bhi tum dono se he juda hoga”…. Sawalker bahar dono se baat kaṛ he raha tha, itne me ander se Kasak fir se joṛ-joṛ se chillayi…. “Help me… help me please… koi to bachao, mera kidnap ho gaya hai, rape hone wala hai… kuch der me katal bhi kar dega…. Koi to madad karo, help me pleaseeeeee”…..
