Update 145
Alpha - (1)
Kshitiz (horizon) rekha ke dono taraf bas halka neela aavaran tha jo duri kam hone ke sath he kahi hara toh kahi gehra neela hota ja raha tha. Samandar kinare aati safed lehre bhi us gulabi reit par rang badal kar waisi he ho jaati. Is khuli hui badi khidki se ye premi yugal bas is prakriti ke swargik sondarya ko niharte hue khush the ek dusre ke samipya me. Khidki se aati taaji hawa jab in bhoori julfo ko hila rahi thi, wo majboot sa pauranik kaal ke yodha samaan yuvak utne he pyaar se apne adhar apni premika ke nirvastra makhmali kandhe par rakhta jaise mehak lene laga.
Khamosh khoobsurat manjar me wo dono hath apni premika ke bahar ko nikle chamakdar nirvastra peit pe rakhta hua alag he ehsaas se bhara ja raha tha. Wo peit soochak tha is apsara si yuvti ke garbhvati hone ka, jo is pal me apni alokik sundarta se Inder ko bhi kadmo me jhuka de. Yuvti is prem sparsh aur drishya me lupt muskura rahi thi. Aur khamoshi ko bhi khud usne he toda.
"Elafonisi pehle kabhi itna khoobsurat nahi tha. Aaj lagta hai jaise ye jagah pehli baar dekh rahi hu.", Hontho ka hilna bhi apne aap me ek sukh bhar deta dekhne wale ko aur wo chehre ki gulabi rangat jaise us samandar kinare ki reit ko he feeka dikhati lagi.
"Ye jagah kaisi thi mujhe nahi pata jaan lekin jaanti ho jitna kuch baahar ke najare me hai us se kahi jyada is waqt meri baahon me hai. Wo kudrat bhi tumhare saamne kuch nahi. Ya fir yu kaho jaise sab rang aaj kudrat ne tumse udhaar liye hai. Wo dur bikhra neela-hara rang jaise tumhari he aankhon ka ek mamuli sa pratibimb bhar hai. Safed reit ne tumse he gulabipan maang liya ho aur ye hawa koshish kar rahi hai tumhari mehak bahar failane ki. Lekin inhe ye nahi pata ki darpan ko mehakne ka adhikar nahi hota. Tumhari khoobsurti ki kalpana karna toh ab aur bhi muskhkil hai.", Yuvak ne apni muskurati hui preyasi ke gaal se gaal lagate hue kaha toh us chehre ki asliyat sachmuch bahri drishya se bhi behtar thi.
"Aur iski wajah hai hamara pyaar. Main khud he baat poori kar deti hu, nahi toh fir shuru ho jaoge behla fusla kar.", Raktim adharo ko kholkar muskurati wo sachmuch varan se pare he thi lekin yuvak bhi apni preyasi ke samaan tha.
"Beti chahiye mujhe bilkul tumhare jaisi aur fir usko le kar bhi hum yaha aayenge. Meri nanhi pari ko dikhane ki yaha ki kudrat bhi tumhari maa se khoobsurti udhaar leti rahi hai. Wo bilkul tumhare he jaisi hogi jaan, bilkul tumhare jaisi meri dhadkan.", Yuvak ke sparsh me is waqt jitna prem tha us se yuvti ki aankhon me bhi paani ubhar aaya lekin khushi se.
"Beti agar mujhse bhi jyada sundar hui toh thodi jalan jarur hogi mujhe."
"Shhhh.. jaise abtak tum mere seene par sar rakh ke soti aayi ho, waise he poori umar bitani hai humne. Bas meri nanhi si beti ko main apne dil se laga kar wo mehsoos karna chahta hu jo maa ne mere sath kiya hoga. Dekh lena wo bhi tumhari jaisi aankhon wali hogi aur tumse thodi jyada he pyaari."
"Aankhen baap par he jaati hai aur mujhe tumhari ye brown eyes pasand hai, badi badi. Ummmaahh.. Thank you for this beautiful life, I'm complete now.", seene par bas wo dheela sa safed vastra vaksho ko dhake tha lekin shayad vastro ke maayne he na the. Chumban kahi se bhi kamuk na tha aur gale lagna apne aap me jaise ekakaar hona.
"Baap par toh kuch bhi na jaye ye dua karunga. Main dunga toh sirf upnaam aur wo bhi sirf dada ji se virasat main mila hai isliye. Mujhe poora karne wali bhi tum ho aur adhura bhi hota hu jab dur hota hu.", yuvak ne jaise he hontho se honth lagaye yuvti ki band aankhen hairani se khul gayi. Ye ek band kamra tha jaha halka andhera aur thandak thi. Neend me meethe khwaab dekhti Preeti jaise us sapne me jiwant he thi aur yaha uske hontho par honth rakhe jo chehra chhaya hua tha wahi toh uska humsafar tha.
Arjun bade itminaan se uske maddbhare hontho ko peeye jaa raha tha lekin jyada der na upar reh saka. Preeti furti se usko thel kar uske seene par aa lipti. Wo chumban ab kahi jyada he uttejjak hone laga tha jisme lagaam bas Preeti ke hath thi aur asahaye sa Arjun apni ijjatt uske hawale kar chuka tha. Preeti ka jism jis kadar tarasha hua tha wo bas Arjun jaisa he sambhal sakta tha. Thos uroj itne sakht the jaise unka mardan karna bhi vash se bahar ho lekin Arjun ka sparsh he unke aise hone ki wajah tha.
"Chhodo.. aahhh.. Billi kahi ki, kaat he liya.. uff..",Arjun ki saansein ukhdi hui thi aur uske upar jhuki Preeti aankhon se he jaise usko pratadit karne lagi.
"Jab bas ka he nahi hai toh shuru kyu karte ho? fattu kahi ke.", Preeti ki aisi baat par ab Arjun bhi halke se hansne laga.
"Meri jaan tumhe soye dekha toh laga jaise tumhari neend me bhi main tha. Rokne ki koshish karta raha lekin fir apne aap he sab ho gaya. Saasu maa ne bola tha ke tumhe utha du, wo mere sath artwork ke kaam se bahar jaa rahi hai.", Arjun ki poori baat sunn kar Preeti ki bhi chetna lauti jo iske sannidhya me sabkuch bhool kar itni der se lagi hui thi.
"Marwa diya tumne toh jaan ke bache. Maa ghar me hai aur tum kamra band karke ye sab kar rahe the? Utho aur bahar jao, bathroom ho ke aati hu main.", Abhi Preeti uthne lagi thi aur Arjun ne dono he badi rubber ball se chucho ko pakad liya. Wo is waqt apni aukaat se kahi jyada he thos aur ubhre hue the.
"Unhone kaha tha ke jao apni Preeti ko pyaar karo aur tum ab bhaag rahi ho. Inhe toh pyaar karne do kam se kam.", Arjun badi dhithai se dono stanno ko pakde hue halke halke daba raha tha. Lekin yaha bhi Preeti us par bhaari padi. Wo tshirt ek pal me seene se utaar kar fenkti hui wo bra kholne lagi toh Arjun ka gala sookh gaya.
"Lo ab jo hoga dekha jayega. Maa aaye ya fir bua, par ab toh pyaar he karte hai.", Arjun ka hath pakad kar apne seene par rakhti wo bra ka hukk kholne lagi lekin Arjun furti se usko ek taraf palat kar bister se khada ho gaya. Preeti gusse se dekh rahi thi Arjun ki ye harkat.
"Pagal ho gayi ho yaar. Main toh majaak kar raha tha aur tumne ek second me he tshirt utaar di. Pehno isko."
"Bade aaye pyaar karne waale, fattu. Agli baar hath lagaya toh kaat ke rakh dungi jo beech me uth kar bhaage toh. Shuru karo toh sath bhi raho. Ab jao apni saas ke pas aur tumhari khabar main atche se lungi raat ko.", Preeti apni chust nikkar ko thik karti hui wo bra sachmuch nikaal kar Arjun ko dekhne lagi. Arjun ki jeans me uska ubhaar daayi taang par 7-8 inch niche tak numaya ho raha tha un gulabi-gore chucho ko dekh kar. Sharir ka sara rakt jaise jaangho ke beech us khaas ang par aa chuka ho.
"Show khatam aur jo khada hua hai na usko khud he jhelo. Ek kadam meri taraf badha toh fir aaj kamre se bahar apni taango pe nahi jaane wale.", Arjun ki rahi sahi himmat bhi jawaab de chuki thi apni is sherni ke saamne. Wo najre jhuka kar jaane laga tha aur Preeti ne peeche se usko baahon me bhar liya.
"Meri jaan, tum na sachmuch jyada he dimag se sochte ho. Mera bhi dil wahi chahta hai jo tumhara dil lekin main isko rokna nahi chahti tumhari tarah. Bana do na mera wo khaas din Arjun.", Arjun jaise is dil ko sukoon deti thandak se bhar gaya Preeti ke lipatne aur dil ki chahat sunn kar.
"Wo pal khaas hoga aur bahot jald Preeti bas pehle main wo hamari shaadi ki raat karna chahta tha lekin aisa karna bahot galat hai. Khud santusht ho jata hu aur tumhe khud se dur rakh kar tadap diye ja raha hu. Bahot jald main tumhari baahon me hone wala hu aur sabkuch tum karogi. Umaahh.. Chalo bathroom me jao main bahar nikalta hu phir.", Arjun ki is jawaab aur chumban se Preeti ka mann halka ho gaya. Ab wo bathroom ja chuki thi aur Arjun darwaja khol kar bahar aaya aur wapis band kar diya.
6 bajne me 10 minute the aur tabhi barabar wale kamre se ye jordar sugandh bikherti hui Romela prakat hui. Preeti ko janam dene wali ye Yunani mahila bhi apne aap me ek vilakshan gulaab he thi jo is waqt ek bina baah ka sooti kameej aur chust legging pehne uske saamne thi. Arjun hamesha unki upasthiti me ghabrata ya asehaj hota tha lekin aaj uske khawaabo ne alag he udaan li thi. Wo apalak bas is sondarya ki murat ko nihaar raha tha. Romela ke chehre par ek alag he khushi thi Arjun ki halat dekh.
"Ye bag utha lo Arjun, camera aur props hai isme. Tum bahar chalo, main aati hu.", Arjun neend se jaga aur chupchap wo bag utha kar bahar nikal chala. Dil alag he awaaj karta laga tha aur sthithi yaad aate he jaise ghado paani uske sar aa gira.
'Bas yahi baaki tha hona. Wo maa samaan hai aur sabse badi baat Preeti ki maa hai. Apni hadd nahi bhoolni chahiye mujhe.', Aapne aap ko thik karta wo bag ko car me pichli seat par rakhe intjaar karne laga Romela ka.

"Dekh yar Gajju, wo rivolver ki report toh batati hai ki us se sirf 2 he goli chali hai aur ungliyon ke nishaan hathhi par toh ek he vyakti ke the par kahi kahi janana ungliyan ya shayad kisi patli ungli wale ladke ke bhi ho sakte hai. Khanjar ke liye main aashwast hu ki us se he Ajju par vaar hua hoga. Lekin ye dono saboot Karam ke ghar milna kuch aur ishara karta hai bhai.", Narinder aur Umed is waqt ek sadharan se hotel ki khuli chatt par ekaant me baithe beer ki chuskiya le rahe the.
"Wo waha plant kiye gaye hai Inder aur plant isliye kiye gaye honge kyonki unka asli maalik Damyanti ya uska pati ho. Wo mahila jaisi bhi thi kabhi vivaad ya khule me nahi dikhi. Damyanti kaaki ko sabse jyada toh Ajju aur tu he jaante the. Khamosh jiwan jeene wali wo ek vidhwa thi jisne Karme aur Bindu ke sahare he jiwan bitaya. Ajju ki maut ke baad wo najar he nahi aayi. Phir kabhi sunaai bhi diya ke uska aana hua hai toh dekh nahi paya. Karma bhi akela rehta tha.", Umed ki baat apni jagah thik thi aur Bindu ka naam sunn kar jaise Inder bhi gehri soch me khone laga.
"Inder, main jaanta hu ki tune kabhi Bindu ko pyaar nahi kiya aur uska bhi pyaar sirf tu he tha. Phir bhi baatchit toh bahot hoti thi na tumhari, kya kabhi laga ke wo aisi ladki hogi? Main khud usko bahot bura bhala keh chuka hu aur jimmewar bhi hai wo bahot se kaand ke liye lekin agar tujhe ateet ki Bindiya yaad hai toh jara gor karna meri baat par. Aur jaise Chandar-Karme ko judwa dikhane ke kaagaj mile, Chandar ko Laajwanti ke bhai ke yaha goad dena... mujhe toh wo sab bhi chaal he lagti hai. Tujhe yaad hai na Bindiya ka janamdin kab aata tha?", Aaj is ekaant me jaise in dono ka dimaag bhi shaanti se har baat ko samajh raha tha.
"Haan, baisakhi wale din aur wo 4 saal tak mere liye kheer leke aati rahi. Pehle toh bachpana keh sakte hai lekin us waqt ladkiyon ko jaldi samajh de di jaati thi gharwalo se. Jaanta hu ke main uska doshi hu Gajju, lekin antarman ne kabhi usko ek atchi ladki se upar nahi swikara. Ya phir mera dhyaan he nahi gaya us sab par Bhole ki wajah se. Waise uske janamdin ka un dono aadmiyon ke judwa hone se kya sambandh hain?", Narinder ne ye baat najre churate hue poochi thi jaise Bindiya ko kahi jyada he yaad kar liya tha.
"Chandar ko tune kabhi Damyanti kaaki ke ghar jaate dekha tha? Usko Bindiya bhi pasand nahi karti thi. Karma hamesha gambhir he rehta tha, bachpan se wo bas apni maa ke sath. Sahi kahu toh wo Munni aur Chandar ki tasvir sabkuch batati hai. Chandar ko Laajo kaaki ne he tayaar kiya hoga aur jawaan ladke kheli khaai aurat araam se kaabu kar sakti hai. Bas maamla ye hai ki Chandar goad nahi diya gaya tha balki Karma ko supurd kiya gaya Damyanti kaaki ke. Aur Munni ya toh marji se Chandar ke niche aayi hogi ya fir Laajo leke aayi jis se Chandar bahar na nikal sake. Ye tasvire jisne bhi li thi uske sath Laajo kaaki shamil thi chahe Munni ko pata ho ya na ho. Bas Karma apne judwa ki tarah gira hua nahi nikla.", Umed wo baatein khol raha tha andaajan jo Narinder ko kehni chahiye thi. Kuch der tak bas khamoshi he chhayi rahi fir khud Narinder he bola.
"Sehmat hu main bhai teri baat se. Ajju ko bahot maanti thi Damyanti kaaki aur mere bhi sar par hamesha he pyaar se hath fera tha unhone. Jaisa tune bataya tha ki Bindiya ki shaadi ekdum he taye hui thi aur Lata ke sath byaah kar wo taau ji ki haveli gayi tab sirf Ajju he mila tha Damyanti kaaki se aur wo bhi beti ko aashirwad dene he aayi thi. Matlab saaf hai Laajanti kaaki, Lata, Chandar aur Tauji ke nalayak Fateh-Sundi is sab me mile hue the. Aur.."
"Aur kya Inder?"
"Aur Bindiya ka vachan maine uski shaadi se 2 raat pehle poora kiya tha. Tujhe ye pata tha ki maine uske sath ek baar samabandh banaya lekin wajah thi ki wo fir kabhi apne pyaar ka ijhaar nahi karegi agar main usko sirf ek lamhe ke liye kabool kar lu. Ya wo us raat mar jaati jis se mera he vachan toot jata ya main usko us raat ke liye apna leta. Uske baad bas ek baar usne mujhe khat likha tha jisme sirf kuch shabd aur ek tasvir thi.", Baat karte hue Narinder jaise khud ko majboot kar raha tha aur uski halat dekh kar Umed ko chinta hone lagi.
"Rehne de bhai mat bata agar kuch bhi aisa hai jis se tujhe dard ho raha ho. Rehne de Inder.", Umed ne kandhe par hath rakhte hue jaise rokna chaha tha.
"Inderjeet, ye tumhari Shabnam jo ek vachan se janmi hai, mere pyaar ke vachan se. Jaane se pehle socha ki tumhe pata ho ki ye hamari beti hai. Dukh is baat ka rahega ki hath thaam na sake toh kisi aur ki bhi suhagan na rehne diya. Tumhari Shabnam ka saamna tumhe jarur karna hoga.' Aur wo tasvir aur khat Krishna ke hath lag gaye bhai jisko main kabhi dukhi nahi dekh sakta. Bahot samay se mere mann me ye dard tha ki kaise bhi karke main swikaar karu jo sach hai. Bindiya fir kitni badal gayi aur main bhi apradhi hu uska lekin wo badla lene wali nahi thi aur hadd toh tab hui jab usne hamare he us milan ke saboot ko maut ke mooh me yaha bhej diya. Wo itni nirmam kaise ho sakti hai Gajju?", Ye raaj ab tak ka sabse bada khulasa tha Umed ke liye. Wo ye sachhai nahi jaanta tha Shabnam aur Narinder ki lekin ek Narinder he tha jiske dil ko Umed sabse adhik samajhta tha jaise Shankar ke dil ko Ajju.
"Bhai maaf karna yar mujhse bhi galti ho gayi. Shabnam ko main aate he pakad sakta tha lekin tab dhyaan Sheela aur Sushila par jyada raha. Lekin atcha he hua jo Arjun ne Shabnam ko wapis uski maa ke pas sakushal bhijwa diya."
"Iska dusra matlab bhi hai Gajju. Arjun ye sachhai jaan chuka tha aur usne wahi kiya jo bhai ko karna chahiye tha. Lekin Bindiya se maafi maange bina mujhe bhi mukti nahi milne wali bhai. Meri wajah se usko wo sab din dekhne pade aur iske sath he maine Krishna ko bhi todd diya. Us bechari ne toh kabhi apna dard sanjha he nahi kiya us din ke baad."
"Matlab Krishna bhabhi bete ki maut se avsaad me nahi gayi thi?"
"Arjun ke roop me usko beta mil chuka tha bhai lekin Bindiya wale khat ne usko jakjhor kar rakh diya. Wo aaj bhi mujhse utna he pyaar karti hai aur main toh sirf Krishna ka he hu. Dil se maaf karne ke bawjood uske dil me ye nishaan bann he gaya bhai, bann he gaya."
"Main sab sahi kar dunga Inder, chahe fir mujhe Sarang se le kar is Munnibai tak ko saaf karna pade. Bhole ko sambhal lena bas aur Bindiya ki bebasi ka andaja toh mujhe atche se hai. Chal abhi kuch din tak ye sab baatein bhool kar ghar ka jimmewaar beta ban. Jab maamle ki jadd ke pas aa chuke hai toh kuch din shaant reh kar hawa ka rukh bhi samajh le.", Umed ne beer ko ek saans me khatam karte hue ciggratte sulga li. Narinder bhi kuch hadd tak sambhal chuka tha. Aaj apne dard ko sanjha karna jaise uske liye bhi anivarya ho gaya tha aur Umed se behtar vyakti is sabke liye uske pas koyi tha bhi nahi. Dono he kuch der baad yaha se ghar ke liye nikal chale the.
.

Ritu ka hath pakad kar Preeti usko apne sath he ek taraf le chali. Baaki sab gappe lagane me mashgool thi aur unhe in dono ka behtar pata tha. Bas Vinni ne he ek kutil muskaan di thi Preeti ko lekin is baar jawaab me waise he Preeti muskurai toh Vinni ne bhi sar pe hath maar liya.
"Ab bata kyu itni utawali ho rahi hai jo apne saiyaan ki jagah sabke saamne mera hath shaan se pakad kar kheench laayi.", Ritu jaisa waha kisi romanchak kisse me baithi thi aur Preeti ke aisa karne par nasamjhi se bol dia. Lekin jald he galti ka ehsaas bhi ho gaya kyonki hath pakadne wali bhi uski jaan thi.
"Sorry, wo andar kuch alag he baat ho rahi thi darling. Ab bata aisi kya khabar hath lagi jo tu itni utawali ho rahi hai jaise tera khasam kisi aur ke sath bhaag gaya ho.", Ritu ne chuhal se baat sambhal li thi aur Preeti thoda sharam se batane lagi.
"Bhaag he gaya hai wo bhi apni saasu maa ke sath. Aap jaldi karo yar ye bahot bada maamla lag raha hai mujhe.", Ab Ritu ka bhi gala khushk ho gaya Arjun ki karastani sunn kar. Wo aankhen badi karti bas Preeti ko sharmate hue dekh rahi thi jaise usko darr he na ho ke kya kuch ho sakta hai.
"Oh meri banno, wo toh bailbuddhi hai lekin tu toh nahi. Aur ye Romela aunty bhi daaka hamare he mard par daalne me lagi hai. Gaye kaha hai woh dono?", Ritu ne idhar udhar dekha toh waha koyi na tha seedhiyon ke pas.
"Wo.. wo maine aaj bhi maa ki baat suni thi. Maa Arjun ki badha chadha kar tarif kar rahi thi maami ke sath phone par. Pata nahi kya chal raha hai unke dimag me lekin abhi wo log purane wale ghar gaye hai. Ab main seedha chali jaati toh maamla bigad sakta tha ya maa kahi bhadak jaati toh baat he pata na lagti. Meri scooty bahar he khadi hai, jaldi chalo. Unko ab tak 20 minute ho chuke hai, kahi wo ghoda maa pe chadh gaya toh fir maa usko apne sath he na baandh le. Sundar toh wo hain he aur ye murkhanand mere chakkar me kuch kahega nahi.", Preeti ki baat sunte he Ritu daud kar apne kamre me chali gayi. Poore 2 minute baad he wo lambi tshirt aur chappal pehne Preeti ke sath nikal chali.
"Waise ye teri maami ka na jarur koyi tagda scene hai jo saaf nahi ho raha. Romela aunty open minded jarur hai lekin wo apne he damaad ke sath aisa kuch itni asaani se nahi karne wali.", Ritu scooty ke peeche baithi thi ab.
"Unhone jadugar Arjun ka wo jaaduai danda dekh rakha hai jaisa maine aapko bataya tha sketch ke baare me. Aur jitna ye buddhu dil se harek ke liye karta hai na toh maa bhi agar us se chipak jaaye toh koyi badi baat nahi. Waise ye maami ka toh aisa lag raha hai jaise maa unko Arjun ke niche jaan boojh kar la rahi hai. Aisa toh tabhi ho sakta hai jab koyi aapas ki badi baat ho. Aapko nahi lagta aisa?", Preeti ne is unchi diwar wale bade ghar se pehle he scooty rok di.
"Wo sab toh pata laga he lenge lekin yaha scooty rokne se kya hoga? Darwaje se toh ja nahi sakte, band kiya hoga unhone aur ye diwar chadhna wo bhi is waqt, na baba. Ab andar jaane ka kuch soch nahi toh mera bhai agar teri maa ke sath kaan kar gaya toh aunty usko nichod he legi. Waise bhi unki baatein itni garam hoti hai pata nahi bechara Aaru sehan kar bhi sakega ya nahi.", Ritu is waqt gambhirta me bhi majaak kar rahi thi. Baat ye bhi sahi thi ki sadhe 6 ke samay apne he ghar ki diwar faandna ajeeb jarur lagta aur log dekhte so alag.
"Arjun ke sath rehti ho aap aur phir bhi nahi samajhti? Wo hamesha mahol aisa rakhta hai ke sabkuch normal lage. Aur wo dono yaha honge bhi toh sabse aakhir wale bade kamre me, ye chhota gate khula he hoga.", Preeti ki baat sunn kar Ritu ne bhi parakhna he thik samjha.
"Band hua na toh tu he kood ke andar jayegi, phir gate kholna.", Ritu ki baat sunn kar Preeti ne hontho par ungli rakhte hu chup rehne ka ishara kiya aur muskurati hui us bade darwaje ke daayi taraf bane chhote darwaje ki saankal bade he araam se sarkaai. Lekin ispe andar se tala laga tha. Preeti ko aise mayus dekh Ritu ne badi savdhani se bade darwaje par laga handle 180 degree ghuma kar kunde par tikate hue mamuli sa khola toh wo khul gaya.
Hath ke ishare se usko andar aane ka bol kar wapis utni he savdhani se wo handle fansate hue darwaja band karti wo dono he ghar ke baayi taraf bane chaare wale kamre ki taraf ho li. Dono he dabe paanv chal rahi thi lekin mann me hajaro vichar the ki jaane kya he dekhne ko mile. Har kamre ki batti gul dekhti wo sabse aakhir tak chali aayi.
"Oh teri.. shhh.. Yaha toh poora mahol bana hai yar.", Ritu kaanch se andar dekhte he niche baith gayi Preeti ke sath. Wo ashwast thi ki unki awaaj idhar se andar nahi ja sakti kaanch ki wajah se. Preeti ne bhi kinare se andar dekha toh dang reh gayi. Ek stand par camera rakha tha aur badi diwar par laal chaadar latkaayi gayi thi. Kamra bharpoor roshan tha jaha Arjun ke sharir par sirf ek dhoti wala vastra jantho se lekar seene tak khaas andaaj me bandha me tha. Daaye ghutne ke bhar baitha Arjun apne baaye hath se Yunani Kaamdevi Romelia ki doodh si gori golakar kalai thaame tha. Udhar bhi jaangho se le kar dono motte kharbujo par he waisa safed vastra tha. Romela jaha chhatt ki taraf dekh rahi thi wahi Arjun Romela ke mude hue chehre ko.
"Andar toh 18+ wali koyi history documentary chal rahi hai. Maa ki thighs toh dekho didi, ye Arjun beech beech me unki back (Kulhe) bhi taad raha hai. Kar kya rahe hai ye?", Preeti ek kinare se dekh rahi thi aur uski baat sunn kar Ritu bhi is kaanch ki khidki ke thik nichle hisse se jhaankne lagi. Yaha andhere me aur itni ehtiyaat baratne se andar wale toh unhe dekhne se rahe.
"Oh yaar teri maa toh sachmuch jaanleva hai Preeti. Arjun nahi bachta.. dekh toh inka khajana.", Andar Romela muskurati hui ab Arjun ko kuch samjha rahi thi. Kamar pe bandhe kapde se wo sunehari baksua nikal kar ek taraf kiya toh Arjun ke sharam se laal chehre ko dekh jo harkat Romela ni ki Preeti-Ritu ke toh saans he gale me atak gaye. Uska naagraj prachand awastha me jhool raha tha. Romela ne yaha apne seene se ek ubhar ko beparda kiya toh Arjun ki halat kharaab. Wo golakar motta chucha is umar me bhi tann kar khada tha. Is umar ke jitne chuche Arjun ne dekhe toh unke nipple kathai ya gehre rang ke motte the lekin jo saamne tha wo bilkul gulabi aur kisi jawaan ladki ki tarah thoda madhyam par teekha.
"Hey bhagwaan. Ye maa koyi blue film bana rahi hai kya?", Preeti ne hath mooh par rakhte hue niche baithi Ritu ko dekha. Andar Romela chalti hui camera stand tak aayi aur kuch button dabane ke baad fir se Arjun ke sameep aa khadi hui. Ab piche se wo 2 adhbhutt fakk safed se bade bade tarashe hue kulhe Arjun se jyada in dono ke samne the. Wahi Arjun ab kalaai ki jagah Romela ki kamar thaame baitha tha aur ek adaa se chehra ghuma kar dekhti Romela ki nigahe Arjun par. 3-4 baar kamre me bijli si chamki. Matlab ye drishya bhi poora ho gaya tha.
"Bada sexy photoshoot ho raha hai andar Preeti. Mujhe iski copy chahiye jaise bhi karke tujhe ye hansil karni he hogi.", Ritu bol rahi thi aur udhar Preeti mantramugdh se andar he najre gadaaye thi. Aankhen jald he badi hoti dekh Ritu ne bhi andar najar ki. Laal tarashi hui tikoni jhaante yaha se kuch gehri he pratit hoti thi lekin Romela ki nirvastra choot dekh in dono sakhiyon ki halat buri ho gayi. Ab toh vastra bhi kamare se kandhe ke beech bandha sabkuch dikha raha tha. Romela jaisi kaamdevi ke nirvastra hone par bhi Arjun apni jagah baitha raha.
"Kaha le aayi yar tu Preeti."
"Yar aap samajh nahi rahi ho. Agar ye baat sirf art photoshoot tak hai toh thik lekin aage badhi toh main darwaja todd dungi. Maa toh bahot pahuchi hui cheej nikli aur wo gadha kaise unke boobs ghoor raha hai. Upar se maa ki hansi dekh meri jaan jaa rahi hai.", Ab Ritu ne thoda muskurane ki koshish ki. Andar se toh wo bhi chintit thi lekin Preeti ka usko bhi pata tha.
"Nahi jaate kahi aage yar. Bas dekh toh sahi, ye maje fir nahi milne wale. Ab Romela aunty aayi meri pakad me aur teri bhi.", Aisi baat sunn kar Preeti bhi kuch sehaj hoti hui andar dekhne lagi. Arjun bhi ab lagbhag nirvastra tha aur fir se camera me kuch button dabane ke baad Romela ne jo mudra is baar banaai toh teeno logo ke kanth sookh gaye, Arjun samet. Haalat toh Romela ka laal hua chehra bhi bayan kar raha tha lekin wo khud par niyantran kiye rahi. Arjun ka ek hath apne bade kharbuje par rakhwati wo dusre hath se choot dhank kar camera ki taraf dekhne lagi wahi Arjun apni saasu maa ke gaal ke pas honth kiye tha. Fir se flash chamki aur photo khinchte he Romela ne ek gehra chumban Arjun ke hontho par jadd diya.
"Hey bhagwan. Maa, bas karo yar.", Preeti itna kehti hui ekaek hairaan ho gayi jab Ritu ne niche baith hue he uska ek ubhaar daboch liya.
"Chup karke dekhti reh na. Maja kharaab kar rahi hai. Mujhe toh Arjun ki halat dekh maja aa raha hai."
"baatein matt banao, ye aapke chehre ki redness main andhere me bhi dekh rahi hu aur pasina bhi. Haalat meri bhi waisi he hai lekin maa jisko uksa rahi hai na wo unka satyanash kar dega.", Andar ab Romela kaafi der tak camera se lagi rahi aur uske baad Arjun ko sab samjhate hue wo jaise uske maje bhi le rahi thi. Arjun is agle drishya me unhe baahon me liye khada tha aur yaha ruk ruk kar wo mudra thodi badalne laga.
"Ye gaya mooh ek dudhu par.. uff.. aur hath dekh uska.. aunty aap toh khaa he jaogi bina kuch kare..", Arjun andar waisa he kuch kar raha tha aur Romela ka poora jism Arjun ki dono baahon ke beech leta tha hawa me. Ek gulabi nipple wo chuskane ki jagah bas mooh rakhe niche dekh raha tha. Yaha jaise Romela ki choot ne kaamras he baha diya ho. Dono jald he alag hue toh Arjun ne kuch kaha jis par Romela ke chehre par ajeeb se bhaav aa gaye.
"Mana kar raha hai ye aage kuch bhi karne se lekin teri maa shayad ab nahi rukne wali.", Ritu ke itna kehte he andar Romela ne Arjun ke hontho ko daboch liya. Ab shayad camera ka swachalit chakra khatam ho chuka tha aur kuch pal tak Romela ka chumban jaari raha. Wo halke halke apna sharir bhi Arjun se ragad rahi thi.
"Pagalpan hai ye toh sarasar. Main dekhti hu maa ko."
"Ruk meri phoolan devi. Wo Arjun hai, teer soch ke he chalayega.", Ritu ne vishwas se kaha aur kalaai thaam li Preeti ki. Andar Arjun ne kuch kaha aur fir Romela ke chehre par thoda dukh dekh kar wo niche baith gaya. Romela aur ye dono kuch samajhti us se pehle he Arjun ne wo sunehari baalo se dhaka gulabi khajana choosna shuru kar diya. Romela kaamp rahi thi aur 2 minute baad he wo jhadd kar niche farsh par baith gayi. Arjun ne kapde se pehle unka chehra saaf kiya aur fir gaal sehlane ke baad unke sadharan kapde almari se nikal kar pas me rakh diye. Romela ne sharam se kuch kaha jis par Arjun ne hanste hua naa me sar hila diya.
"Ye dekh jara apne hero ko. Koyi aur hota toh kabka kaand kar chuka hota lekin ye Arjun hai Preeti. Teri maa ki sthithi bhi samjhi aur unhe sambhal bhi liya.", Andar Arjun ne kapde pehan kar ab Romela ki madad karni shuru ki toh Ritu Preeti ka haath thaam kar bahar nikal chali, dabe paanv.
"Sachmuch iska control kuch jyada he nahi hai didi? Main toh 10 baar fail ho chuki lekin ye aage he nahi badhta."
"Sambhal ke rakh teri muniya ko darling, jis din uska chala gaya fir ye khaali khaali lagegi. Maine toh ungli he karna band kar diya ab. Tadap badhne he do, jab milega tab kasar khud he nikalega.", Dono wapis ghar ki taraf chal padi.
"Waise aapka bhi ho gaya tha na wet?"
"Tu teri halat dekh jara. Niche baithi thi main aur wo khaas smell seedha mere mooh par he aa rahi thi. Likhwa le, ab teri maa ko mauka mila na toh wo Arjun ka chahe rape kar de lekin leke rahegi agli baar.", Ritu ne hanste hue kaha toh Preeti sharamti hui hansne lagi.
"Maa ka haq hai didi. Udhar hota hai aisa kuch parts me aur maa us khaas jagah se he hai jaha aisa tradition bhi hai ki beti aur damaad ke beech maa ko bhi jagah milti hai damaad ke sath. Waise aaj uska halka kar dena nahi toh hamara he nuksaan hai.", Preeti ka arth Arjun ke itni der se akde lund se tha aur Ritu bas hans di.
"Wo main dekh lungi ya Arjun apne aap. Scooty khadi karke 'H' ko idhar he ghar leti aa, raat yahi rukne wali hai tu mere pas.", Ritu apne ghar ke aage utarte he Preeti se boli aur andar chali gayi. Aapas me inhone us rottweiler pille ka laghu naam 'H' rakha hua tha, jaane kis wajah se. Preeti bhi kapde badalne ki jarurat samajh kar seedha apne ghar he chal di. Jiwan me pehli baar aisa najara dekha tha aur abhi tak dil me hulchal jaari thi. Wahi purane ghar me Arjun ne kamra pehle jaisi awastha me karke sara samaan bag me bhar diya tha.
"Sorry Arjun.", Romela ki is kshama ke peeche glaani bhaav na tha lekin wajah thi ki jisko wo nadaan jawaan samajh rahi thi wo us se bhi kahi jyada sanyamm wala nikla. Arjun uttejit tha jo usne chhupaya nahi tha ek bhi mudra ke dauraan lekin usne Romela ke sath koyi galat harkat bhi na ki thi. Wahi Romela ne bilkul ulat kiya tha, uttejjana dabaye rakhi aur jab laga ki ye samay khatam hone wala hai toh usne jism ki garmi ko prakat kar dia. Wo khush bhi thi ki uska bhaavi damaad insaan ko samajhta hai.
"Aapko sorry kehne ki koyi jarurat nahi hai. Situation aisi thi wo bhi itni der tak ek dusre ke sath waisi halat me. Aur waise bhi aap yaha bina uncle (Preeti ke pita) ke hai itne samay se toh abhi jaisi haalat me sharir kaise sath de sakta hai. Khushi hai ki aapne khud par fir bhi contrl rakha aur humne hadd par nahi ki.", Arjun ne wapis bag car ki pichli seat par rakhte hue kaha aur bahar aangan ki light jala di jaisa raat ko jaruri bhi tha. Romela Arjun ka gaal choom kar dusri taraf se car ki seat par baith gayi. Arjun ne bhi car bahar karne ke baad fir se mukhya dwar band kiya aur car ko aage badha diya. Paune 8 baj rahe the.
"Main mahino control kar sakti hu Arjun, bas aaj jaise khud se he haar gayi thi. Hum bahar thoda samay bita sakte hai?", Romela abhi bhi jaise kisi soch me thi. Ye sach tha ki kahi na kahi dimag aur jajbaato ko kaabu karne ke maamle me wo Arjun se behtar thi aur apni chhavi ko aajtak wo saaf rakhne me kamyab bhi rahi thi.
"Haan kyon nahi aunty, petrol pump jana he tha subah fir abhi chalte hai. Waise aapse kuch pooch sakta hu agar bura naa maane toh?", Arjun ne car ghar ki taraf lene ki jagah is taraf se he sector ki market jaane wali road par bhada di. Saamne se aati roshni me Romela ka chehra prakashit hota toh Arjun beech beech me nigah maar leta. Romela kankhiyo se ye sab dekh rahi thi lekin usko is se koyi aapatti na thi.
"Agar sawaal mere control karne wali baat se hai toh nahi pooch sakte. Baaki jo bhi chaho, main jawaab jarur dungi aur tumse main naraaj nahi ho sakti.", Romela ki baat ne ek pal ke liye toh Arjun ko thanda he kar diya tha. Jis baat ko puchne se usne inkaar kiya tha Arjun wahi baat ghuma phira kar puchne wala tha. Jagmag sadak par ab car 40 ki raftar se apni line me chal rahi thi. Aur Arjun ko khamoshi se sochta dekh Romela ne he baat aage badhai.
"Vivaan hamesha se honhar aur jiwan ko jeene wale vyakti dikhe. MBA ke un 2 saal me career ke sath sirf mujhpe he dhyaan diya tha Vivaan ne. Shaadi ke baad bhi wo kaam aur pariwar ke beech bahot behtar taalmel banaye rahe jisko Preeti aur Joel ke janam ne kahi jyada majboot kiya. Tumhe lag raha hoga ki main kaisi baatein kar rahi hu?", Romela is samay jitni sehaj aur spasht thi Arjun ne dekhne ke baad najar fir se samne ki.
"Nahi main aisa kuch bhi nahi soch raha aunty. Bas mujhe sunn-na atcha lagta hai aur main kabhi raaye nahi banata.", Arjun ke najariye se Romela ke spasht chehre par chhoti si muskaan tair gayi.
"Jaante ho Vivaan ki aisi life tabhi tak rahi jab tak maa zinda thi. Wo saal me ek mahina yaha India aate rahe aur 15 din Greece bhi jaate the. Preeti ke yaha aane ke baad he mujhe najar aaya ki wo discipline, balance and everything were not in order like before. He was changed.", Romela apne shabdo ko sahi se kehne me asmarth si lagne lagi.
"Ho sakta hai apni maa ke dehant aur Preeti ke yaha aane se aisa hua ho.", Arjun ki is samajhdari par Romela ne feeki si hansi di jaise wo bina jawaab diye he usko galat sabit kar chuki ho.
"Dad. Dad toot gaye the jo Vivaan ki life ko aise banaye hue the. Tumhe kya lagta hai ki love marriage aur har kadam Vivaan ke sath chalne wali aurat ne apna pyaar kam kar diya hoga?", Yaha unka mantavya khud se tha.
"Nahi aunty mera aisa matlab bilkul bhi nahi tha. Bas samajhne ki koshish kar raha hu ke santulan kharaab kyu hua aur kaise? Aap dono ke prem-vivaah aur aadarsh zindagi ki baatein maine maa (rekha) aur Preeti se jaane kitni baar suni hongi."
"Rekha ne wahi bataya jo maa apne samajhdar bete ko batati hai jab uska rishta aisi ladki se ho jaye jiske unhe apni beti si chinta ho. Aur ek fact jaane tum samajhte ho ya nahi, shayad samajhte ho lekin waise nahi ho. Aurat ka mann jatil ho sakta hai kyu ki wo apni duniya simit rakhti hai lekin ek mard dil ke maamle me hamesha khud ko Raja maanta hai. Wo jyada ki chahat rakhta hai aur avasarvaad jaise paida hone ke sath he usme rehta hai. Vivaan mujhe hansil kar chuke aur mere se bache bhi ho gaye. Dono ne mil kar khud ko sthapit bhi kar diya tha toh unke hisaab se wo jimmewariyan khatam kar chuke.", Romela ne kuch bhi galat nahi kaha tha ek purush ki soch ke baare me.
"Meri life bhi inke barabar he busy thi aur dono office same time tak rehte the. Main har din inme aa rahe badlaav dekhti rahi lekin kabhi reason nahi mila aur maine bhi wahi socha jo tumne kaha tha. Kuch samay tak aise he chalta raha aur phir ek din Joel ke school se phone aaya tha kuch activities ke regarding jisme parents ki approval leni jaruri rehti hai. Waha se fursat milte he main office ki bajaye ghar ki taraf chal padi.", Romela ki baatein sunte hue Arjun ne car aur dheemi kar di. Usko ye jaruri bhi laga ki Romela pehle apni baat poori kare bina vyavdhan ke.
"Bedhadak darwaja kholna jaise jiwan ka sabse dukhdayi kadam raha us din. Hamare he bedroom me, mere bister par Vivaan Alisha ke sath us halat me jisme sirf waha main aur Vivaan he ho sakte the. Mujhe us samay kuch samajh nahi aaya aur main wapis bahar chali gayi. Dhero khayaal liye main kitni der bhatakti rahi iska ehsaas sirf shaam hone par aaya. Joel ki yaad aate he mere kadam wapis ghar ki taraf mudd gaye. Kya mere pyaar me kami thi? Kya Vivaan santusht nahi tha mujhse? Kya Alisha ne he mere pati ko majboor kiya hoga aise sambandh ke liye?", Romela ko ehsaas bhi nahi hua kab car us shaant andheri si sadak par khadi ho chuki thi. Yahi wo jagah thi jaha Arjun ne Preeti ko baahon me liya tha.
"Aap apne pehle aur ekmatra pyaar ke prati galat ho he nahi sakti aunty. Aapne itne saalo tak jab Preeti ko he is sabse dur rakha toh main vishwas se keh sakta hu ki aap sirf apne pati aur bacho se pyaar karti hai. Rahi baat purush mann ki toh main sehmat hu is baat se. Galat toh main bhi hu aur jo main kehne wala hu uske baad aap mere prati apna nirnaya badal sakti hai. Main safaai nahi dunga.", Arjun bhi jaise ek alag se dard se bharne laga tha. Usko ehsaas tha ke wo ab jo bhi kahega us se uski zindagi bikhar sakti hai.
"Tum alpha ho Arjun jisko sabhi ka pyaar milta hai kyonki wo sabke sath pyaar se rehta hai. Hai toh ye bhi pehla akshar Greek ka lekin iska matlab shresth hai. Preeti bhi tumhari pramukh hai aur baaki sabke saath tumhara jo pyaar hai wo unki zindagi ko sanvarne aur dard se ubarne ke liye ek jaruri kadam hai jo sirf sahi insaan le sakta hai. Tum apni safaai de kar baaki sabhi ko sahi saabit nahi kar sakte, unke nirnaye laalach aur vaasna tak simit hain aur kisi ki parwah bina. Khud ko itna mat jhukao ki baaki sabhi ko dard mile. Jab meri beti isme tumhare sath hai toh tum galat nahi ho sakte.", Is baar baat kehte hue Romela ne bina kisi laag lapet ke Arjun ke baalo ko sehlaya aur halke se hontho ko choom kar car pump ki taraf lene ko kaha.
"Toh aapne isliye khud ko adhyatm aur kala ke sath jodd liya? Main jaanta hu ki aap spiritual healing, food for mind and art ko khaas tarah se follow karti hai. Aapka kamra bhi apne aap me ek kahi jyada he urja se bharpoor aur alag sa ehsaas karwata hai. Waha sirf aap he rehti hai, alag duniya me.", Arjun is patli sadak se mukhya marg par aate he dusri taraf ke petrol pump par aa ruka. Sirf inki he car thi aur petrol tank ka dhakkan button se kholte hue Arjun ne thoda shisha utaar kar tank full karne ka kaha aur fir se Romela ko dekhne laga jo abhi tak Arjun ko hairani se dekh rahi thi.
"Haan art apne aap me ek life hai aur main kamjor zindagi ke khilaaf hu. Jiwan me aapko hamesha wahi karna chahiye jo sahi ho aur jis se mann shaant rahe. Greek mahila hu aur aantarik sundarta ke sath mujhe bahri sharir ko bhi majboot rakhna pasand hai. Bas ab farak nahi padta mujhe andekhi se kyonki pyaar har taraf hai aur sukoon pana itna bhi muskhkil nahi.", Romela ki muskurahat dekh Arjun bhi is dauran pehli baar atche se muskuraya tha. Paise dene ke baad dono wapis apne sector ki taraf chal diye.
"Toh aapne fir kabhi nahi socha uncle ya Alisha maami se baat karne ke baare me is matter par.? Bharosa rakhiye, main har baat yahi tak simit rakhunga.", Arjun bhi ab sehajta se baat kar raha tha aur uske bharose wali baat par Romela hansne lagi.
"Bharose ki baat tum keh rahe ho? Abhi thodi der pehle tum chahte toh kuch bhi kar sakte the, itna bharosa bahot hai mujhe sahi-galat samajhne ke liye. Waise bhi tum mere liye khaas ho. Haan baat ki thi maine Vivaan se aur unka jawaab tha ki Alisha bhi unse pyaar karti hai. Wo rahegi hamesha apne pati (Romela ke bhai) ke sath kyonki unhone kabhi koyi dukh nahi diya aur Vivaan Alisha ke beech jismaani sambandh bas mere bhai ki kami se hai. Vivaan isko pyaar ka naam deta hai aur Alisha isko jarurat wala pyaar. Ab Vivaan ko asliyat dikhani hai Alisha ki aur Alisha ko Vivaan ki kyonki Vicki ne bataya tha mujhe is baare me kuch. Vicki mere liye kahi se bhi Preeti-Joel se kam nahi hai. Ek baar jija-saali nange ho jaye, phir 3 desho ke kanoon ke hisaab se baat karungi main. Tum nischint rehna Arjun, main hamesha papa ki bahu rahungi.", Romela ka uddeshaya aur Preeti ke papa ki ye alag he chahat sunn kar Arjun bhochakka reh gaya. Lekin ye mahila toh bilkul sehaj thi.
"Jo bhi kijiyega, Preeti hamesha aapke sath he hogi. Jaruri nahi sambandh todne se he sab thik hota hai, sudhara bhi ja sakta hai aur jyada itcha ho toh bebas bhi kar sakte hai sudharne ke sath.", Arjun ab ghar ki taraf jaati sadak par aa chuka tha. Romela achraj se Arjun ko dekh rahi thi ki wo halaat ko tehas-nehas karne ki jagah sudharne me he vishwas rakhta hai.
"Kar dena bebas. Aur Preeti ka matlab yahi na ke tum mere sath ho? Atchi baat hai. Waise dinner hamare yaha kar sakte ho, Renuka ne tayaar kar liya hoga. Papa bhi khush honge tumhe dekh kar."
"Jaisa aap kahe. Lekin ghar pe batana jaruri hai toh car khadi karne ke baad aata hu.", Arjun ne samay dekha Romela ko utarne par toh sadhe 8 ho chuke the.
"Rekha ko pata hai ke tum mere sath market gaye the 2-dhai ghante ke liye. Fir bhi mil aao, main dinner arrange karwati hu.", Romela ke khulase se ab thoda Arjun ko chain mila. Usko pata tha ke 8 baje ke baad thaanedar sahab sawaal jarur karenge ki khaane par deri ki wajah.
.
.
Vinni jabse aayi thi wo itne atche mahol me kahi jyada he khush thi aur agar kami thi toh bas Arjun ke sath kuch khaas lamho ki. Fir bhi yaha Madhuri, Komal aur Priyanka ke sath uska waqt atcha gujar raha tha aur Tara, Aarti, Rupali bhi ghulmil gayi thi. Shaam khatam hote he sab niche chale aaye aur Shankar ji ke sath Richa ko pravesh karte dekh Vinni ke sath Komal ke chehre par bhi khushi thi.
"Welcome. Tumne aa kar toh surprise he de diya yar. Ye aapne atcha kiya chachu jo Richa ko lete aaye.", Vinni ke aisa kehne par Richa uske sath gale lag kar mili aur waise he Komal, Madhuri aur Priyanka se bhi. Rasoighar me baaki mahilaye jo kaam kar rahi thi unhone bhi Richa ka swagat kiya jis par Shankar ji thoda hairaan bhi hue aur unhe khushi bhi thi ki unki is beti ke sath bahar maa se lekar yaha andar tak sabhi apnepan se pesh aaye.
"Mere sath rehna aap aur ye bag main upar mere kamre me rakh deti hu. Fresh hona hai toh sath aa jao, phir dinner karte hai.", Komal ne bag lete hue kaha toh Richa bhi hath pakadte hue sath chalne lagi seedhiyo ki taraf.
"Aaye haye, kya haal hai madam ji aap toh peeth dikha kar chal rahi ho.", Ye Ritu thi jo abhi andar aayi thi purane ghar se aur aate he peeche se Richa ko jaffi daal li. Ritu ka aise Richa se milna dekh ek taraf khade Shankar ji bade gor se dekh rahe the aur unka bhai bhi muskurata hua barabar aa khada hua.
"Bache hai Shankar aur bache pyaar karna he jaante hai. Chal kapde badal le bhai, fir khaane ke baad aaj araam se baatein karenge. Kal sunday hai toh bahot se ghar ke kaam nibtane hai, Raju bhaiya akele he pareshan ho rahe hai.", Narinder ji ki baat sunn kar Shankar ji ne haami bhari aur idhar Rekha ji apne pati ke liye kapde aur toliya liye chali aayi. Wo bina kuch bole wapis raosi jaa chuki thi.
"Haan yaar.. Aaj araam karne ka dil hai aur tujhse baatein karne ka bhi. Bas kahi thaanedar sahab na koyi naya farmaan suna de."
"Hahaha.. Tu ja ke naha le pehle. Papa khush rehte hai aur wo bhi abhi thodi der pehle aaye hai Golf khel kar. Beer upar tanki me he hain hum dono ki lekin jaldi khatam karni hai toh 5 minute me aaja upar. Sanjiv wahi hai.", Itna bol kar Narinder ji seedha upar chatt ki aur badh gaye aur Shankar ji bathroom me. Sab samay se ho raha tha aur yaha bache khaane ke liye baithe toh upar chatt par Sanjiv apna quarter liye dono chacha ke sath mehfil me.
"Tu toh keh raha tha ke sharaab band kar raha hai?", Diwar par baithe Shankar ne apne bhatije ko ye aakhiri jaam banate dekha. Quarter me 3 he bante the aur 2 wo laga chuka tha.
"Chacha ji ye kaha tha ke kam kar raha hu. Pehle dinbhar me 10 ciggratte lag jaati thi aur ab mushkil se 2. Quarter bhi aaj 3 din baad peene laga hu wo bhi isliye ki Inder chacha ne beer mangwai toh leta aaya. Waise aap aaj kuch thake hue lag rahe ho.", Sanjiv ki baat par Narinder ne bhi haan me sar hilaya. Wo pyaaj-tamatar mili giri ke daane chammach se uthate kuch pal sochte rahe.
"Yar kabhi kabhi lagta hai ke maine jiwan bilkul bhi waise nahi jeeya jaise jeena chahiye tha. Aur aaj subah din atcha jaa raha tha jab hospital tha lekin uske baad bas inhi khayalo ne mujhe chain na lene diya. Maanta hu ki main sirf wahi karta hu jo atcha lagta hai lekin galtiyan toh bahot hui hai.", Shankar ko aise gambhir dekhte hue Narinder ne kandha thapthapaya.
"Galtiyan sabhi karte hai Shankar lekin tu afsos karke khud ko galat saabit matt kar bhai. Zindagi ka itna samay gujarne ke baad aisa sochna baaki jiwan ko paschataap ka galat naqaab udha deta hai. Jo baatein sudhar sakti hai unhe durust kar aur jinka kuch nahi ho sakta unhe dur rakh. Insaan hain hum aur himmatwale bhi, kabhi koyi keemat chukane ka samay aaya tab bhi ghutne nahi tekne mere bhai. Haan agar tere aujaar par fufund lagne lagi hai toh Punjab me ek hakeem jaanta hu main, ilaaj kar dega.", Narinder ki gambhir baat ke baad aisi tippani karne se jaha Sanjiv sharma kar niche dekhne laga wahi Shankar ne peeth par thappad jadd diya.
"Tu nahi sudhrega be. Bhatija sharma raha hai iska toh khayaal kar thoda. Waise tu sahi kehta hai."
"Kya sachmuch aisi problem hai tujhe?", Narinder ne gambhirta se kaha aur thoda peeche hatt gaya. Ab Sanjiv joro se hans raha tha aur Shankar ne fir se apne bhai ki peeth senk di.
"Sudhar ja bhi sudhar ja. Mera aujaar durust hai aur mujhe teri baat atchi lagi. 'Regret is slow poison'. Nahi sochta is baare me aur jo hoga dekha jayega lekin jo thik karne layak nuksaan hua hai usko sudhaarne ki poori koshish karunga. Waise Sanjiv ko jarur us Miya Shah ji se milwa diyo, mujhe shak hai kahi ye naak na katwa de. Iske kisse nahi sune na kabhi maine bahar.", Shankar ji Sanjiv ko lapet rahe the jo kuch bolne wala tha par pehle Narinder ji he bol pade.
"Arjun ke kisse sune hai matlab? Jara mujhe bhi bata mere bete ke baare me. Sanjiv toh thaanedar ki kaapi (copy) hai, ye ek se he 4 nikaalega.", Narinder ka yahi swaroop har insaan ki nirasha mita deta tha. Lekin ab Sanjiv mand mand muskura raha tha wahi Shankar ji wapis soch me doob gaye.
"Yaar wo apna beta hai aur ye dost. Usko karne de jo wo kare, kahi sala naya panga padd gaya toh lene ke dene padd jayenge."
"hahaha.. Shankar tu aisa na tha bhai. Main maje le raha hu aur tu serious ho gaya. Jaanta hu uske paas raja ke sath ghar ka poora mantri-mandal hai lekin chamatkaar toh wo bhi karta he hoga. Nahi bhi karta hoga kyonki itni jaldi rishta ho gaya uska aur wo bitiya hai bhi laakho me ek.", Apni he baat par Narider ko thoda sandeh hua toh ab Shankar ke chehre par hansi aa gayi.
"Uske chamatkaar na he jaaniyo bhai. Ek ke baare me mujhe pata laga tha aur uske baad se main thoda dur he rehta hu. Bas ye Sanjiv babu na aashram chale jaaye kahi iski biwi apne devar ki diwani ho gayi toh. Hahaha.."
"Chacha ji fikar na karo aap, Radhika Arjun ke beech na aane wala main. Waise aap dekh lena wo apni bhabhi ka khayal har insaan se behtar rakhega. Mera dil kehta hai ki jitna pyaar Arjun mujhse karta hai wo us se jyada apni bhabhi ka dhyaan rakhega. Usko yahi toh aata hai bas.", Sanjiv ka jaam khatam hua aur baaki dono ki beer bhi.
"Ciggratte raat ko peeni band Shankar abse. Ghar me ye nahi peeni ab. Sanjiv din ki 2 kar sakta hai toh hum itna toh kar he sakte hai? Chal niche khana khaate hai.", Narinder ke is fainsle par Shankar ji ne dibbi wapis jeb me rakh li. Sanjiv sara samaan samet kar thaili me bharne ke baad ghar ke piche fenk kar aa gaya. Seedhiyon se niche utarte hue dono bhaiyon ke mann me ek he baat chal rahi thi. Sanjiv aur Arjun ka aisa vishwas upar se uska ye kehna ki Arjun ko sirf khayaal rakhna he toh aata hai. Narinder ka mann bhali bhanti jaanta tha Arjun ko, wo ladka itni kam umar hone ke bawjood chhip-chipata hua kitne he khatre liye baitha tha sirf apno ke liye.
"Papa aap log baithiye main khana lagati hu.", Ye Ritu thi jiske sath is waqt Preeti bhi kaam karwa rahi thi. Table saaf karne ke baad ye dono he ladkiyan jhoothe bartan dhone ki jagah rakh kar teeno ka khana parosne lagi. Rameshwar ji apne biwi aur Rajkumar ji ke sath khana khaa chuke the aur baaki bache bhi. Inke baad shayad ghar ki mahilaye he bachi thi aur Krishna ji ke kamre me unke sath Aarti-Priyanka thi.
"Sabhi ne khana khaa liya kya Ritu?", Ye Narinder ji ne poocha tha aur jawaab Komal ne diya jo table par achaar, papad rakhne aayi thi.
"Chacha ji maa aur taai ji toh baad me he khaati hai lekin Ritu ka dinner aaj Preeti ke ghar hai, Renuka bua bata kar gayi thi.", Shankar ji in dono ladkiyon ke taalmel ko kuch hadd tak samajhte the aur is maamle me ab wo kuch kehne wale bhi nahi the. Vinni aur Richa seedhiyon se chalti niche aayi jinke hath me chhota pilla tha.
"Chacha ji, hum isko bahar ghuma rahe hai.", Vinni ne aisa kaha toh Shankar ji ne muskurate hue haami bhar di. Wo dono galiyare se bahar nikli toh Narinder ji ne pooch he liya.
"Yar ye pilla kitne log paal rahe hai? Aise toh ho gaya ye trained."
"Usko dada ji training de rahe hai chacha ji aur abhi chhota hai toh unhone itna he kaha hai ki jyada se jyada logo se milwate rahe. Ghumane, khaane ka time bhi abhi se bana de toh baad ki training wo araam se denge.", Ab apne baap ke kathan par ye dono kuch keh bhi nahi sakte the. Ritu yaha khana paros kar rasoi me he jaane lagi thi ki Arjun kapde badal kar upar se aata dikha.
"Main chhote dada ji ke ghar ja raha hu, mera dinner wahi par hai aaj.", Preeti darwaje par he ruki muskura rahi thi jaise usko ye pata tha.
"Haan toh 5 minute baith, main bhi chalti hu. Waise tum 3 ghante se gayab kaha the?", Ritu bilkul patni ki tarah sawaal kar rahi thi aur Arjun apni maa ki taraf dekhne laga lekin waha toh pehle se Preeti khadi usko dekh rahi thi.
"Wo.. Wo main Romela aunty ke sath tha. Unhe art related kaam tha thoda aur uske baad petrol dalwane gaya tha car me.", Ritu mann he mann hans rahi thi uski halat par aur phir bina kuch kahe rasoi me chali gai toh Preeti paani ka jug aur gilas table par rakhne lagi jaha Arjun apne bhaiya ki he bagal me ja baitha. Ye Shankar ji aur Arjun ki pehli mulakaat thi pichle din wali baat ke baad. Lekin wo bada sehaj najar aa raha tha aur aate he usne papa ke sath chacha ko bhi hello kaha.
"Kal ka kya plan hai chhote?", Sanjiv bhaiya ne he ye khamosi bhang ki.
"Savere wahi Aacharya dada ji ke sath, uske baad library jana hai bhaiya. Phir dada ji aur tauji se pooch lunga mere layak koyi kaam hoga toh wo karunga. Shaam ko stadium nahi hai toh ghar par he weigth training. Baaki bacha time aapke sath aur ghar par. Filhal toh routine yahi rehne wala hai.", Arjun ke jawab se saaf jahir tha ki wo ab saaf-suthre time table par chalne wala hai, ghar ke kaam karne ke sath.
"Agar thoda samay ho din me toh Nick restaurant tak chale jana.", Sanjiv bhaiya aur Arjun ke beech jaise ye shabd ek code-word tha. Arjun muskura diya bas.
"Haan chala jaunga aur jaane se pehle phone bhi kar dunga.", Arjun ne saamne Ritu ko khaali hath khade dekha toh turant uth gaya. Ye ishara tha Preeti ke ghar chalne ka aur wo chupchap un dono ke sath bahar nikal gaya.
"Ye naya restaurant hai kya koyi? Khasiyat toh batao jara yaar, kya pata kabhi hum bhi darshan kar le. Waise bhi Inder ke sath bahar bhi lunch kiye bahot samay ho gaya.", Shankar ji ke aisa kehne par Sanjiv muskura diya.
"Waha sirf Arjun ki entry hai chacha ji, meri bhi nahi. University ke andar he chhota sa booth me khola hai iski pehchan ke vyakti ne. Mujhe bhi iske bade bhai ke taur par pehchante hai toh kaha tha ke message de dena.", Badi safaai se Sanjiv ne baatein gol-mol kar di thi aur usko pata tha shehar me shiksha wali jagah se Shankar ji dur he rehte hai.
"Ye sahi hai ke abhi se pehchaan bana raha hai ladka. Waise Shankar main bhi soch raha tha ye Restaurant ka kaam karne ka. Umed ke sath wo building wala kaam shuru ho gaya tha wahi ek badhiya sa restaurant kholenge bhai jaisa udhar America me dekha tha."
"Tu sabkuch he khol le bhai aur phir waha bhi tu mujhe baitha dega meri retirement ke baad. Shaadi ke baad bas Delhi wale kaam par dhyaan de, Arjun ko milne de aise tatpunjiyo se jo college me restaurant ke naam par rehdi lagate ho.", Unki is baat par toh Sanjiv ka hansi se baithna he dubhar ho gaya. Asliyat kaha pata thi in logo ko. Aur Shankar ji ko kabhi pata lagi toh unka haal dekhne wala hoga.

Jaha Arjun aur Ritu aaj ratribhoj ke liye Col sahab ke ghar the wahi ghar me aaj sabhi ke sone ka sthaan thoda bahot idhar udhar ho chuka tha. Shankar Narinder ne apni pasand ki jagah Baithak ko he araam-gaah bana liya tha aur upar wale hall-kamre me Tara-Priyanka ki jodi ki wajah se Sanjiv bhaiya bhi apne dada ji wale kamre ki bagal me bane mehmaan kamre me sone aa gaye. Filhal toh Tara-Priyanka ke sath Rupali, Alka, Madhuri bhi thi. Komal niche apni maa, chachi aur taai ji ke sath chachi ke kamre me he thi. Aarti bhi aaj pehle he bata chuki thi ki wo maa ke sath sone wali hai.
Vinni Ritu-Alka wale kamre me bathroom se kapde badal kar aayi toh Richa kisi soch me doobi dikhi. Filhal yaha purn-ekant tha toh Vinni ne he baat shuru ki.
"Kyu yaha aana atcha nahi laga kya?"
"Arre is se jyada atchi jagah koyi ho sakti hai kya yar? Bas soch rahi thi ki yaha sabhi kitna hil-mil ke rehte hai aur bade chhote me koyi narajgi he nahi hoti. Koyi kisi par order nai maarta, na yaha wo panchayti system jaisa aksar haveli me dikhta hai. Daadi ne bahot kuch thik kiya hai lekin mujhe phir bhi ye ghar pasand hai."
"Richa darling, yaha tu shaadi hone se pehle jitna marji reh le. Uske baad tu milne aa sakti hai lekin hamesha yaha nahi reh sakti. Khair jaha jayegi waha aisa mahol bana lena, nahi aata ho toh Arjun se seekh le.", Is naam ka jikar karne ka bhi Vinni ka apna he maksad tha aur Richa ke chehre par halki sharam aa gayi.
"Wo mila he kaha hai jabse aayi hu. Bahar gale toh laga lekin baat nahi ho paayi. Usne sachmuch mere aaspas ke sabhi logo ko badal diya hai Vinni aur wo is ghar ka sabse chhota sadasya hai. Mera uske sath ye uljha hua rishta na hota toh main shaadi is se he karti. Babita didi ko dekhti hu toh khud ke liye bura lagta hai."
"Tension matt le, ye rishtey dhare reh jaate hai lekin jiwan bhar yaad rahega toh wo ek haseen pal jisme tumhari chahat tumhare sath rahi ho. Babita didi ne pehle jo kiya wo unki itcha thi ehsaan utarne ke hisab se lekin unhe bhi pyaar hua aur nisankoch kabool karti hai ke ab unhe jiwan me kuch nahi chahiye. Arjun samay dega toh atcha aur nahi mila toh ab jeene ke liye unke pas wajah hai. Waise bhi unhe sahi mauka mila aur unhone jaane nahi diya. Yaha filhal kuch nahi ho sakta siway halki fulki pehal ke.", Vinni ka ishara ghar ke itne sadasyo ki taraf tha aur baat sahi bhi thi.
"Chal jaane se pehle agar dhang se apne dil ki keh bhi paayi toh bojh utar jayega. Waise uske sath sath yaha har sadasya bada atcha hai. Tum toh yaha aati rahi ho na?"
"Aati thi jab hum bache the lekin ab aayi hu saalo baad aur Arjun se pichli baar milne ke baad toh mera haveli wala kamra bhi jail lagne laga hai. Ek do din me main toh lapak lungi usko, aur nahi saha jata. Chal ab thodi der tv dekhte hai phir Komal-Madhuri ke sath 'Kaat' khelenge. Unhe bhi atche se aati hai."
"Idhar carrom bhi rakha hai.", Richa ne khade hote he diwar par tanga wo bada carrom board dikhate hue kaha.
"Rehne de, wo apne bas ka nahi hai. Humko toh Tara aur Alka he nibta dengi aur Komal yaha sab par bhari hai carrom aur chess me. Ye dono khel wo pehli kaksha se khelti aa rahi hai. Pichli baar dekha tha maine kaise wo baari he nahi aane deti. Taash me bhi dhyaan rakhiyo, thode hath sahi chale toh game khatam.", Komal ke baare me ye nayi jaankari mili thi Richa ko. Hamesha sabke saamne khamosh ya thoda bahot bolne wali Komal in khel me mahir hogi usne socha bhi nahi tha.
"Chess. Samay mila toh main jarur khelna chahungi Komal ke sath. Carrom me agar wo baari nahi aane deti toh matlab saaf hai ki meri utni game nahi hai. Chess toh maine bhi daadi aur maa ke sath bahot kheli hai bachpan se. Maa aur daadi ko eksath khelte jyada nahi dekh lekin parso wo log khel rahi thi. 3 ghante baad daadi he haari thi aur main maa ko ghante me hara deti hu ab. Daadi ke sath bhi utni he lami chalti hai baaji.", Richa uth kar Vinni ke sath kamre se bahar nikalti hui agle bhaag ke hall-kamre me chali aayi. Ittefaaq se yaha pehle he shatranj ki baaji chal rahi thi. Rupali aur Alka ke beech.
"Waah. Yaha toh pehle he Aanand aur Kremnik khel rahe hai.", Vinni ke aisa kehte he Alka ne baaji nibta di.
"Inke sath nahi khelna Vinni didi. Alka thodi he der me hara deti hai. Pehle Priyanka didi haari, fir Tara ne thoda mukabla kiya lekin meri toh baaji he 10 minute me khatam.", Rupali ke aisa kehte he Alka na pyaar se sar sehla diya.
"Aise he bol rahi hai ye gudiya. Baitho aap dono yaha upar he aa jao.", Alka ne board piche khiskate hue dono ko jagah di aur sofe par baithi Tara-Priyanka itminaan se film me mashgul thi. Madhuri bhi bathroom se kapde badal kar single sofe par aa baithi.
"Aise toh koyi bhi nahi bolta Alka madam. Mujhe bhi pata hai ke dimaag me tum kahi jyada he tej ho. Agar kuch jaruri nahi karna toh apni Richa ko bhi ye pasand hai. Ek baaji khel lo kya pata thoda mukabla dekhne mile.", Richa pehle naa me sar hilane lagi thi lekin Alka ne unhe khelne ke liye raji kar he liya.
"Vinni didi ki har baat ka khaas matlab hota hai aur is se itna toh pata chal he gaya ke Richa didi aap behtar khiladi hai."
"Thik thak khel leti hu Alka aur sach kahu toh ek yahi khel hai jo dimag ki kasrat karwane ke sath sath tension bhi kam karta hai. Main kaale mohro se khelti hu ye baaji.", Richa ne shatranj ki disha badalte hue kaale mohre apni taraf kar liye. Alka ko aitraaj na tha pehle chalne par.
"Maine ye khelna thode he samay pehle shuru kiya hai Richa didi aur wo bhi Komal didi mujhe aur Ritu ko sikhati thi. Aap pehle se khelti aayi hai toh swabhaik hai main jyada der nahi tikne wali.", Apni chaal chalte hue Alka ne apne thode gyaan ki baat saamne rakhi.
"Toh Ritu bhi tumhari tarah khel leti hai? Isliye pooch rahi hu kyonki Rupali ko tumne jyada mauke nahi diye aur chaal alag andaj me shuru ki hai.", Richa ne bhi apna pyada badhaya.
"Ritu attacking khelti hai aur main defensive. Jis se ek galti ho jaye toh dusra uski paltan khatam kar deta hai. Main raja ke aaspas rehti hu aur wo pyaade se le kar vajir tak sabko khatam karke Raja ko tanha karke baandh deti hai. Doctor bann rahi hai na toh reham nahi karti, hum business ki padhai karne wale maarkat kam he karte hai.", Alka ki majedar baatein aur sadhi hui chaal dekhte hue Richa bhi uske he anusaar khelne lagi. Ye baaji poore ek ghante tak chali lekin benatija rahi. Sath wale band kamre me kapde badal kar Arjun bhi idhar he chala aaya aur niche se Komal didi bhi sab kaam nibta kar Ritu ke sath aa gayi. Madhuri didi bhi ja chuki thi pichle hisse me jaha aaj wo Tara-Aarti wale kamre me Vinni ke sath sone wali thi.
"Uff.. Yar tum kehti ho ke tum defensive khelti ho, yaha board par bacha he kya hai dekho jara. Bahot behtar khelti ho yar Alka tum, waise ek game toh mera dil Komal ke sath khelne ka bhi hai ab.", Richa ne aisa kaha toh Komal ne seharsh he prastaav swikaar kar liya.
"Richa didi, aap Alka didi ki baaton me aa gayi aur ye shatranj se jyada dusre ke mind se khelti hai. Khair apni Komal didi chupchap araam se khelengi.", Arjun bhi ek taraf board ke saamne pasar gaya jiski peeth par Ritu ja baithi. Yaha in dono ki baaji shuru hui toh 10-12 chaal tak Komal jaise beman se he kabhi pyaade aur kabhi koyi ghoda hila kar idhar se udhar karti rahi. Richa se sirf ek chook hui thi aur wo beman se aage laaye gaye ghodo ke dum par he Komal ne vajeer se check-mate kar diya. Vinni ko bhi samajh nahi aaya ke Richa chal kyu nahi rahi.
"Itna kya soch rahi hai, baari chal."
"Kya chalu? Baaji khatam ho chuki hai Vinni. Main toh ye samajh rahi hu ki Komal ne kiya kaise ye sab? Poore 15 minute bhi nahi hue aur kaam khatam. Ye pyada aage karti hu toh wo saamne wala oont maarega, ye raja toh hilega bhi vajir ki taraf jo maarega he aur idhar pyade se block nahi hoga. Dusra ghoda bhi dhai kadam par hai hai ek kadam hilte he. Mujhe toh laga tha ye mere maje le rahi hai game jaldi khatam karne ke chakkar me lekin isko jaise meri har chaal pehle he pata thi. Shitt.. Outstanding game Komal.", Richa ke chehre par dil se khushi ke bhaav the haarne par bhi. Komal ne bas halke se muskurate hue hath mila liya.
"Main yahi se khelna chahta hu Komal didi ke sath agar wo bas ye vajir piche kar le aur ye kaale wala pyada wapis apni jagah kar do toh.", Arjun ko shatranj khelte inhone kisi ne nahi dekha tha lekin wo apne dada ke sath lambi baaji khelta tha jab bhi samay milta tha. Bachpan se he usko lagaav tha in haathi-ghode wali gittiyon se. Arjun ke aisa kehne par khud Komal ne wo dono apni apni jagah karke board uski taraf ghuma diya.
"Aaru agar tu jeeta toh meri taraf se party.", Ye Tara ne kaha tha aur wo bhi apne hero ko khelte dekh idhar chali aayi.
"Aaru 15 minute se jyada tika toh meri nayi wali dress teri ho jayegi Tara.", Alka ke aisa kehne par Arjun ne chownk kar dekha jaise usko lagta tha Alka uska samarthan karegi.
"Arjun jeetega main keh deti hu.", Vinni ke aisa kehne par Ritu hansne lagi thi. Aur bhai behan chal chalne lage. Richa bade gor se dekh rahi thi ye baji jisko Arjun Richa ki 2 galtiyon ke baad bhi atche se sambhal raha tha.
"Gin lo sabhi aur 5 chaal ke andar baaji khatam hone wali hai.", Ritu ke is kathan par Alka bhi muskura di. Aur us se bhi bura hua, 4 chaal ke baad he Arjun baaji haar gaya.
"Hadd hai didi. Maine toh atche se sambhala tha sabkuch fir ye chook kaha se hui? Yakeen nahi hota.", Arjun abhi bhi dhyaan se dekh raha tha. Lekin jawaab Richa ne diya.
"Tumne meri kheli hui baaji apne hath me li, thoda sudhaar karke. Dusri taraf wahi khiladi tha jisne poori baaji kheli. Pehle tumhe mujhse samajhna tha ya fir aise adhure khel me utarana he galat hai. Jis tarah se tum khel rahe the mujhe lagta tha ke nayi baaji hoti toh tum jeet jaate.", Richa ne ye baat jaise bhi kahi ho lekin iska asar kahi dur tak hua tha Arjun ke jehan me. Kisi aur ki adhuri baaji, saamne wala purana khiladi..
"Thank you samjhane ke liye aur didi hum fir kabhi khelenge ab ye. Main chala niche maa ke pas sone.", Arjun utha khada hua toh Priyanka didi bol uthi.
"Maa ke pas aaj Aarti hai Arjun. Tu tere kamre me he so ja.", Ab Arjun samjha ya uske upar se gaya lekin jawaab fir bhi de gaya.
"Meri 2 maa hai. Chachi maa ke pas Aarti didi hai toh main meri pyaari maa ke pas so jaunga."
"Main bhi chalti hu.", Ritu ne kaha toh Arjun ne ghoor kar dekha.
"Aap nahi so sakti, main kinare ho jata hu aur pehle gir bhi jata tha jab chhota tha. Aap ye Alka ji ke sath araam kariye devi ji, hum chale apni mata ke pas.", Arjun hath hilata bahar jaane se pehle sabke saamne he Vinni ke gaal ko choom kar bhaag gaya.
"Tu ruk badmash kahi ke.", Jawaab me bahar se Arjun ki yahi awaaj aayi..'Vinni-Tinni-Minni goodnight'
"Hahaha.. didi aapko toh yahi pareshan kar sakta hai. Dekh lo itna koyi aur bol jaye toh gaal senk deti abtak.", Alka ke aisa kehne par Vinni hansne lagi thi. Andar se toh dil machal chuka tha is harkat par lekin jahir bas bhai-behan wala pyaar he kiya.
"Wo aisa sabhi ke sath karta hai toh main bhi sab me he aati hu. Waise ye abhi tak chachi ke sath sota hai?", Is sawaal par Richa bhi Komal ki taraf dekhne lagi.
"Arjun toh jaha dil kare so jata hai. Ye Ritu aur Rupali bhi maa ke sath abhi tak soti hai. Alka is maamle me thodi badi ho gayi is se.", Komal didi ke is jawaab par Ritu turant palat kar bol uthi.
"Kahi badi na hui ye abhi tak. Main iske sath nahi soti toh ye Madhuri didi aur aapke beech pasar jaati hai. Akele sone ko bolo toh jara isko. Thode time pehle tak toh taai ji ke sath bhi soti rahi hai dopehar me. Haan.. Aur Vinni didi maa ke sath he toh sote hai na bache."
"Tu bachi nahi hai ab. Kal byaah kar de toh saal se pehle chacha ko nana bana degi.", Vinni ke aise tanj par bhi Ritu dhitai se hansne lagi.
"Aap jara practical dikha do iska. Papa toh aapki baari me bhi nana he banenge ya kuch aur banane ka irada hai?", Ab furti se wo idhar se bhaagi toh Alka peit pakad kar hansne lagi thi.
"le lo maje aap bhi Vinni didi. Ritu ne pichli baar bhi aisa he kuch kaha tha aur aapke hath ye tab bhi nahi aayi thi."
"Hadd hai yar Komal, ye ladki toh aag bani firti hai. Kuch bhi bolti hai aur sochti bhi nahi.", Vinni ke gaal laal ho chuke the baat samajhte he aur ab wo jhempte hue Komal se shikayat laga rahi thi.
"Didi, waise aapko toh lagta hai Ritu ki baat pasand he aayi hai. Aur itna bura bhi nahi hai hamara bhai jo bura lage.", Ye Tara thi jisne mauke par chauka jama diya tha.
"Tara ki bachi tu bhi sabke jaisi he hai. Chal Komal, yaha se chalte he hai. Pata nahi iske baad jaane ye Priyanka bhi kuch bol uthe.", Vinni ki baat par Komal bhi muskura di aur Priyanka pehle se hans rahi thi. Vinni aaj Madhuri ke sath upar he sone wali thi aur Komal Richa ke sath. Ye charo he kamre se nikal chali toh Tara ne Priyanka se darwaja band karte hue kaha.
"Plan fail he samjho apna toh. Arjun nahi aane wala ab upar in sabki wajah se aur aaj toh Preeti bhi Ritu-Alka ke pas sone wali hai. Batti bujhao aur chaadar taan ke meethe sapne he lo jaaneman."
"Atcha hai na wo nahi aaya. Tere sath uski khaas demand thi aur kahi tere chakkar me wo meri chaal kharaab karta toh main fans jaati. Teri toh kal savere ki chhutti hai."
"Kaha yar didi, kal ka he din hai uske baad toh mujhe nahi lagta agle 12-13 din Arjun hath lagega. Dekhte hai ab kismat rahi toh Arjun ke sath kal waqt katega nahi toh ungli toh main karne wali nahi ab. Goodnight.", Tara ne lamp band karte hue alag he chaadar odh li aur Priyanka ne bhi mann maarte hue waisa he kiya. Dusri taraf Preeti pahuch chuki thi Alka-Ritu ke kamre me.
"Kaam ho gaya didi aur sab safaai se mere computer me copy kar liya. Time milega toh dekhte hai kya kuch tha waha.", Ritu aur Alka ke beech pasarte hue Preeti ne bhi khushkhabri di. Ritu aur Alka ne dono taraf se uske gaal choom liye.
"Isliye beech me litaya hai? Pehle keh deti hu kuch aisa waisa nahi haan..", Preeti ne hanste hue kaha tha lekin Tara ka hath sarak kar uske ubhar par aa ruka.
"Khaa nahi jaayenge tujhe. Chup kar ke leti reh na, bas dekhne de ki tere wale aise kya khaas hai jo hamara munna control nahi kar pata."
"Hahaha.. ye ro na pade Alka. Upar se he hath rakh le aur agar bhadak gayi toh ye Arjun ke kaabu nahi aati, apni halat na kharaab kar de.", Lekin yaha Preeti ne kaam kar he diya tha Alka ka.
"Ab aisa hai toh main bhi jaanch he leti hu ki meri halat kaisi hone wali hai inke boyfriend se.", Aur Alka turant piche hatt gayi Preeti ka hath choot par lagte he. Kuch jyada he atche se sehla diya tha Preeti ne.
"Oooii.. kameeni.. Ritu sahi kehti hai. Tu toh dur he reh yaha se. Ek toh wo pagal hai dusra tu bhi uske he jaisi. Ritu tu he sambhal isko main toh sone lagi baba.", Aur Preeti hansti hui Ritu ke seene se lipat gayi. Thodi he der baad Alka bhi waise he piche lipti thi aur saadhe 11 baje tak yaha sabhi neend ke aagosh me ja chuke the. Bas niche aaj Arjun ka sone ka koyi irada na tha. Aaj kuch kadam aage badhne wala tha wo 'Tilottama' ke sath swarg ke safar par.
