Update 102-A
Nafrat aur Pyaar (II)
Raat ke is aakhiri pehar ke khatam hone me bas aakhiri ghanta bacha tha. Sava 3 baje ka samay tha jab is atyadhunik neeji hospital ki parking me apni videshi jeep khadi karte hue Dr Dharamvir Sangwan apne teeno shaagird suputro ke sath andar chal diye. Bhuppi Gulati ke sahare chal raha tha aur Chota Sangwan apne pita ke peeche khamoshi se unke raste ka anusaran kar raha tha.
"Mehra, Sanjiv ke kamre me le chalo aur uske baad kisi ko bol kar sath wala kamra bhi khulwa dena, poore samaan ke sath.", Ye chasme wala ek gambhir sa doctor tha jo shayad is hospital ka sanchalak ya utna he jaruri vyakti tha.
"Ji Sir, aap mere sath chaliye. Baaki kaam main khud he kar lunga.", Lift se pancho log teesri mazil par pahuch gaye aur kamra number 302 ko kholte he saamne bister par kamar tikaye Sanjiv par Bade Sangwan ji ki najar padi. Ek taraf rivolver rakhe woh bekhayali me cigrettee ke kash laga raha tha. Pas me he Black Label sharab ki bottle aur ek kaanch ke gilas me jaam aadha khali tha.
"Kis tayaari me ho barkhurdar.?", Is jaani-pehchani awaaj ko sunte he Sanjiv ne jhempte hue cigrette bhuja di aur Bade Sangwan sahab ne uske pas se gujarne ke baad ek pahiye wali kaanch ki khidki ko sarka dia. Kamre me tambakhu ki mehak jaise unhe pasand nahi aai.
"Aap aise yaha is waqt?", Sanjiv seedha hona chah raha tha aur Gulati ne aage badh kar uski madad karne ke baad bed ka pichla hissa ek button se upar utha dia.
"Mehra, Bhuppi aur Param ko sath wale kamre me le jao. Inhe khaas upchaar aur araam ki jarurat hai. Sister Martha ke hath 2 gilas bhijwa dena idhar.", Unki baat ka turant paalan hua. Paramvir Sangwan shayad wahi baithna chahta tha lekin baap ki baat kaatne ki himmat nahi thi. Gulati ne kamre me rakha naram sofa bister ke pas kheench lia aur bade Sangwan ji ke baithne ke baad khud Sanjiv ke pas baith kar ek cigrette jalate hue apni kameej bhi khol kar ek taraf rakh di.
"Lagta hai is raat me bahut kuch hua hai.", Sanjiv ne Gulati ke kandhe par jakhm dekhte hue kaha. Sangwan ji ne rooi ke bade tukde par bhoore rang ki dawa lagane ke baad atche se ghaav ko saaf kia aur fir itminaan se bandage karne lage.
"Soch se bhi pare tha jo hua Sanjiv. Ek pal ke liye toh sabkuch daav par lag chuka tha aur aaj itne saalo baad mujhe Shankar ki itni kami khali hai ke khud hathiyar uthana pada. Kahi bhi ek chook ho jaati toh main jawaab nahi de sakta tha.", Baat ke beech me he ek dakshin bhartiya si dikhti nurse badi tehjeeb se lakdi ke tray me 2 gilas aur baraf ka dabba liye aa gai. Sangwan ji ne bhi dhanyawad karte hue jaate hue kamra atche se band karne ko kaha. Idhar Sanjiv ne apna gilas plastic ke dustbin me khaali karne ke baad teeno ke liye jaam banate hue baraf aur paani daal dia.
"Chacha yaha hote toh main bhi apahiz sa yaha nahi hota uncle. Pehli baar koi hamare ghar ke bahar tak pahuch gaya aur main sabse anjaan yaha pada raha."
"Sanjiv waha ki suraksha sahi haatho me hai. Lekin jaruri baat sirf ye hai ki dushman hamari sahi nigrani me nahi hai. Main bhi tumhare barabar he trained hu aur shayad thoda anubhavi bhi lekin hamari galti ye hai ke Shankar ki gair-maujdgi me humse chook hui. Woh akela kahi bhi reh kar sabkuch sambhalta hai aur dekh uske bina 5 din me he Chacha ko chodd kar hum 5 log jakhmi ho gaye.", Gulati ne ek jaam Sangwan ji ko dete hue apni baat kahi. Fir khud bhi ek ghoont peene ke baad gilas tray me rakh dia.
"Haan uncle. Pehle Umed Chacha ke paanv me goli lagi aur unke sath main bhi yaha pahuch gaya. Ab aap teeno bhi."
"Sanjiv beta, Shankar parso wapis aayega aur is baar uske aate he humko list banani padegi. Bhan Singh jaise darjan bhar toh honge he aur main ab ye asla tabhi wapis almari me rakhunga jab sabhi naam kaat diye jaayenge. Bhuppi 2 hafte se pehle sahi se baith nahi sakta, Param ke hath ko bhi sahi hone me utna waqt lag jayega aur tumhe-Umed ko toh shayad jyada samay lage.", Sangwan ji ki chinta bahot hadd tak jayaz thi. Gulati bhi unse sehmat tha
"Uncle is baar mujhe lagta hai ke Shankar chacha ke sath aapko dadaji se bhi salah kar leni chahiye. Chacha bejod hai apne kaam me lekin khud sochiye ke ek Bhan Singh ke sath muthbhedd me 5-6 log toh shaheed hue honge. Agar darzan bhar aise naam hai toh ye aankda 55-60 logo tak chala jayega. Shankar chacha ke sath hum log bhi poori taqat se sath nahi de payenge.", Sanjiv ne aadha gilas khali rakhte hue Gulati ke hath se cigrette thaam li thi.
"Hmmmm.. Pandit ji 12 me se ek ko bhi nahi maarenge. Woh kanoon ke hiteshi hai aur waise bhi mere humumar hai toh woh pariwar se bahar nikalte nahi.", Sangwan ji gehra chintan kar rahe the.
"Unka toh ek pyaada he hum sab par bhaari hai. Beshak woh jaan lena sahi nahi samajhte lekin jo karte hai uske baad apradhi ko maut jyada pyaari lagti hai. Waise unke network hamari soch se kahi jyada bada aur jatil hai. Bas aap list unke sath saanjhi kijiye aur dekhiye woh pariwar me rehte hue he kaise sab saaf karte hai.", Sanjiv ka itna bharosa dekh kar Gulati khudko bolne se rok na paya.
"Shankar se jyada connection hai unke?"
"Woh dakhal nahi dete chacha ke kaam me lekin unhe sab khabar rehti hai. Chacha ka connection aap logo ke sath hai,Col Puri, Minister Chadarkant, Rajesh Mama, Brig. Maan, National Health, Rural Development, 50 se jyada sarkari afsaro, bade vyaparik gharano aur corporate ke sath hai. Beshak aur dur-daraj me bhi connection honge lekin dadaji ko sab khabar hai ya unki pahuch waha tak bhi hai. Kai baar toh woh khud he anjaan ban kar chacha se he kaam karwa dete hai ya mujhse bhi.", Sanjiv ne jo bhi kaha Sangwan ji ne us par sehmati me gardan hila dia.
"Sach hai ye. Ek tarah se mere sath bhi unka taal-mel Shankar se kahi gehra hai jo maine nahi bataya tum logo ko. Bas main unhe pareshan nahi karna chahta."
"Fir humko sabkuch dhyaan se aur khaas tarike se karna hoga. Kaam jyada logo ko pareshan kiye bina bhi ho sakta hai. Chacha, main, Lucky aur Mehul unlce kar sakte hai sabkuch.", Sanjiv ki baat sunn kar Sangwan ji ne naa me gardan hila di.
"Tumhare ghar me 2 vivah hai agle mahine. Aur mujhe itni jaldi bhi nahi hai sabko khatam karne ki. Bas tum log apan network durust rakho aur sahi logo ko shamil karo. Saavan tak abhi kuch aur nahi karna. Bhan Singh nakara ho gaya hai aur tum bas jailor Amrik Singh ka pata karo aur araam karo.", Sangwan ji ne jaise ekdum he sara plan thande baste me daal dia. Jarur ko badi wajah hogi lekin unke jawaab par kisi ko koi sandeh na tha.
"Waise ye Arjun ka kya chakkar hai?", Gulati ka sawaal ek muskurahat ke sath aaya tha.
"Uncle woh ab toh meri bhi samajh se pare ja raha hai. Yahi haal raha toh mujhe nahi lagta ke dada ji usko yaha ek saal se jyada rakhenge. Pehle woh Sudarshan wala kissa hajam nahi hua tha, uske baad jo halat usne Bheem aur Mohar Singh ke aadmio ki kari aur aaj kuch der pehle 4 tajurbekar apradhio ko usne koi mauka tak nahi dia. Woh khud ek paheli hai jiske baare me jyada sochenge toh shayad hum uske sath thik se reh nahi payenge. Behtar toh yahi rahega ki hum Arjun par dhyaan he na de.", Sanjiv apna gilas khatam karke ab aankh moonde jaise khud ko shaant kar raha tha.
"Haan. Hona toh yahi chahiye. Woh halka sa saboot milne ke baad uski khaal tak nikaal raha hai. Aise me uske sath samanya rehna he behtar hai. Baaki tum araam karo aur main ghar chalta hu apni shrimatiji ke uthne se pehle wapis sona hai.", Sangwan ji khade hue toh Gulati bhi bina kuch kahe waha se nikal lia, unke sath.

Komarya bhedan ka dard sehti Muskaan dard me bhi khush thi. Uske achoote sarovar me Arjun apna jarurat se bada jahaj utarta hua behad shanti se usko himmat de raha tha. Gori faanke ab halke rakt ki wajah se laal ho chuki thi aur unke beech me fasa woh mool dheemi gati se andar ja raha tha.
"aahhhhh... tum bahot atche ho Arjun.. umm.. Aise he andar sama jao.. aahhhh..", Aankhon ke kono se paani ki dhaar nikal kar bister par gir rahi thi lekin Muskaan is raat me bas apna khwaab poora karna chahti thi. Is se pehle jo dhakka Arjun ne dia tha woh abhi tak sharir me dard de raha tha lekin aadha lund andar jaane ke baad woh bas is dard se paar jana chahti thi.
"Tum itni pyaar ho ke dukh ho raha hai tumhare aansu dekh kar. Bas ho gaya jo hona tha.", Uske upar jhukte hue Arjun ne pehle aansu apne hontho se saaf kiye fir gulabi hontho ko choomta woh yon-mardan karne laga. Gore garam badan ko aagosh me liye woh bade pyaar se kamar aage peeche karta ab Muskaan ko woh sukh de raha tha jo dono ki chahat thi. Choot ke naram honth buri tarah se us motte lund ko jakde the lekin yoni-ras aur cream ki chiknahat se ling aage peeche ho raha tha.
"Ummm.. dard me jo maja hai yahi toh chahiye.. aahhh.. isko pane ke liye jaane kabse tumhara intjaar tha... aahhh.", 7 inch tak lund us geeli sankri gali me utarte he ek pal ko dono sharir ruk gaye. Laal chuchak ab phool kar kuppa ho chuke the. Unhe chooste hue Arjun Muskaan ko uske dusre charam tak le chala. Jaha bhi uske majboot hath pakad banate, wahi se sharir laal ho raha tha. Poore kamre me ab tej siskiya aur aahen goonj rahi thi.
"Bada atcha lag raha hai ummmm.. Fill me aahhh..", Muskaan ko shayad pata nahi tha ke Arjun lambi race ka woh ghoda hai jo abhi aadhe he raste pahucha tha. Sharir shaant hote he Arjun ne Muskaan ko upar utha lia. Hontho ko jaise dono chabane he lage aur uske sath he kaamras me sarobaar geela lund thodi teji se andar bahar hone laga.
"Aaahhh.. devil.. umm.. fast.. aahhh.. tum kya ho? I am flying.. ummm... ", Kasawat ke sath he Muskaan ki choot ka lachilapan kisi hadd tak Annu jaisa he tha. Jald he woh lagbhag poora lund leti Arjun ki bahon me uchal rahi thi. Har dhakka uski choot ke antim hisse tak ja raha tha. Sakht seene par ragad khaane se gore naram chuche laal hone lage. Choot ka ras behta hua ling ke baad andkosh bhigo raha tha. Kuch samay pehle aapas me chipke choot ke gore honth ab ek dusre se kahi door is kaamdand par chipke fool rahe the.
"Hath bed par rakh ke ghutno par khadi ho jao.", Arjun ne jaise he lund bahar nikal kar Muskaan ko bister par rakha woh lambi saansein lene lagi. Lund par jaise shehad ulat dia tha jo usko chamkate hue bade andkosh par jama hone laga. Ek baar is 9 inchi baans ko dekh kar Muskaan ki dhadkan badh gai lekin himmat karti woh bister ke kinare ghodi ban he gai.
"Ouch.. Idiot.. aahhh.. thoda pyaar se karo na.", Arjun se bhi jaise galti ho gai thi. Shehad tapkati gulabi choot me ek he jhatke me poora lund bharte hue usne Muskaan ke kulho par halki chapat laga di thi. Fir muskurate hue woh badi dheemi raftar se uske swargik jism ko sukh dene lege.
"Sorry. Ruka nahi gaya. Waise tumhe pata hai tumhare hips bahot jyada sundar aur ubhre hue hai.", Arjun ne latakte chucho ko thaam kar Muskaan ke peeth choom li. Dono gol matol gubbare se chuche hatheli me bhar ke dabate hue woh aadhe se jyada lund bahar nikal kar andar pel raha tha. Muskaan ki aankhe toh unmaad me pehle he laal ho chuki thi.
"Ummaaaaahhh.. Fuck man.. aaahhh.. You are really a beast.. maa.. Waha karne ke baare me aaj sochna bhi nahi.. I know you like my hips but I'm not ready for anal. aahhh.. Ye itna bada hai ki koi bhi isko waha nai legi except any Afro girl. Hold me aahhhh...", 5 minute ke antral me he Muskaan ki choot ne fir se sankuchan karte hue bata dia tha ke aaj uska sarovar paani bahata he rahega. Lekin Arjun bhi utna he nashe aur josh me tha. Supada motta ho raha tha lekin woh poore josh se Muskaan ke doodh dabate hue dhakke laga raha tha. Agle ek minute me 50-60 dhakke bahot the Muskaan ki pehli baar chudi choot ko rulane aur Arjun ka baandh todne ke liye. Bister par ludhakne ke bawjood poora lund andar fansa hua garam bauchaar kar raha tha.
"Sorry. Control nahi hua. aahhh... Muskaan..", Arjun ne shaam ko Tara ke sath bhi kia tha lekin is waqt uska veerya jaane kaha se bann kar bahar nikal raha tha jo choot ko gehrai tak bharne ke baad bhi katra-katra tapak raha tha.
"Ahhhh.. Jesus.. tum janwar ho. Pyaare janwar.. Pata nahi kya haalat ki hogi meri. Boobs toh jaise kuch feel karna he bhool gaye aur vagina bhi sunn hai.. Aahhh... Isko bahar nikalo. Kiss me.", Uski baat maante hue Arjun ne lund bahar kheencha aur bister par choot se nikalta veerya apni chaap banane laga. Arjun bhi halki thakaan se peeth ke bal leit gaya. Muskaan uski baahon me aati sukoon se aankhe band karne lagi. Ek taraf ek feet ke vyaas me laal dhabba tha aur dusri taraf aadhe feet ka geelapan. Bache hue bister par dono he duniya se behkhabar so chuke the.
Muskaan taange failaye uske upar leti unmaad me behosh he thi. Choot laal aur motti ho chuki thi wahi andar ka chedd ek chudai se he khul kar uski buri halat dikha raha tha. Sawa ghante ke milan me chudai aadhe ghante se adhik he chali thi aur subah 5 baje he Arjun ki aankh khuli. Arjun ko ghar se bahar 3 ghante ho chuke the. Bathroom me fresh hone ke baad woh garam pani me antseptic mila kar bister par aa gaya. Choot par jami khoon aur veerya ki papdi ko dhyaan se saaf karte hue najar Muskaan ke chucho par padi.
'Jyada he josh dikha dia. Laal aur neele nishan ban gaye. Sorry Muskaan.', Ek chuche par halka sa chumban karne ke baad usne baaki safaai ki. Muskaan bhi kasmasati hui aankhe khol kar Arjun ko itne pyaar se dekhbhal karte dekh muskurane lagi.
"Hota hai ye pehli baar. Pareshan mat hona aur 2-3 din baad promis karti hu ke rone ki jagah tumahra poora sath dungi. Thank you so much Arjun. Ye aaj tak ka sabse best moment tha meri life me. Umaahhh.. Bas ab mujhe bathroom me le chalo.", Arjun bhi dhyaan se Muskaan ko bathroom me choadd kar bahar aa gaya. Bister ko saaf karke nayi chaadar bicha di. Paani peene ke baad Muskaan ke bulane par woh wapis usko bed par le aaya.
"Pregnant bhi ho sakti ho. Aur jyada dard hai toh main painkiller le aata hu."
"Tension mat lo. Painkiller ki jarurat nahi hai aur pregnant ho gai toh atcha he hoga. waise chance bahot kam hai aisa hone ke. 5 days se he main clean hu. Ye tshirt aur shorts de do fir tum chale jao.", Arjun ne khud he kapde pehnaye aur Muskaan ko fridge se doodh nikal kar pilane ke baad choom kar bahar nikal gaya, fir se jald milne ka wada karke.
'Tum bahot pyare ho jaaneman. Bas aise he is Muskaan ko pyaar karte rehna. I love you. Umaaah' hawa me chumban uchalti woh fir takiye se lipat kar hansti hui fir se so gai aur Arjun seedhi se utar kar apni agli manzil ki taraf badh chuka tha.

"Tum sab samajhte ho aur sabse khaas baat hai har kon (angle) ko gehrai se parakhna, vichar karna aur fir natije par pahuchna. Lekin hum gaadi reverse gear me lete hai jis se tum samajh me aaye ke utpatti (birth) ke liye kya pramukh rasayan hai.", Aacharya ji ke sath tehalte hue aaj Arjun akela nahi tha. Ek 20-21 saal ki yuvti bhi nange paanv Aacharya ji ke daaye taraf thi aur Arjun baaye.
"Dekhiye jaise utpatti ki baat hai toh uske liye 2 elements ki jarurat hogi he. Himnad (Glacier) se agar Himani ek nadi (river) ke roop me nikalti hai toh pehle jo element jarurai hai woh hai saalo se ekatrit paani ko jamaaye rakhne ke liye utna sard vatavaran aur fir kuch samay ke liye parivartan jis se baraf pighal kar nadi ka roop dharan kare. Aur ye ek layebadd prakrima ke bina toh aajiwan chal nahi sakta.", Arjun ka aisa vishleshan sunn kar woh yuvti thoda thithak kar Aacharya ji aur Arjun ko dekhne lagi. Kahi se nahi lagta tha ke ye 2 log 2 peedhiyon ke faansle wale hai.
"Haan Himani beta, ye Arjun hai aur Arjun tumhare kathan me jo nadi thi ye us se alag lekin hain Himani he. Is saal he MBA me pravesh le rahi hai aur meri pyaari eklauti naati (Grand-daughter) hai. Ab aate hai tumhare tark par jo kahi se bhi galat nahi hai lekin usko bahari duniya ke hisab se samajhte hue main kuch pal ke liye nakaar deta hu.", Arjun aur Himani ne aankho ke sath halki gardan jhukate hue ek dusre ka abhivadan kia aur fir se Aacharya ji ki baat samajhne lage.
"Thik hai.", Arjun ne haami bhari.
"Tum kis wajah se paida hue?", Acharya ji ka itna seedha sawaal sunn kar pal bhar ke liye Arjun stabdh reh gaya. Ab kya jawaab de aur hichakna lajmi tha ek yuvti ke sath hone par.
"Woh maa-papa ki wajah se.", Arjun ne gardan jhukaye he jawaab dia.
"Hahaha. Mere bache tumhara wajood hai tumhare mata-pita ke paraspar prem se. Kisi ke bhi hone ke peeche jo ek rasayan hai woh pyaar hai. Aur dusra hai nafrat. Dono he sikke ke 2 pehlu hai. Ab jara Himani beta tum is dusre rasayan ki paribhasha dena.", Shashtri ji ne kitne sateek tarike se apni baat kahi thi. Arjun ko ehsaas hua ke woh bewajah chintit tha aur galat jawaab de gaya.
"Ek paripoorn jiwan me pyaar sabse jaruri bhaag hai lekin uska abhaav bhi zindagi ke maayne badal kar woh paida karta hai jisme dwesh, nuksaan aur ashaanti ka mel-jol rehta hai. Nafrat. Utpatti ka matlab sirf ek bhautik rachna bhar nahi hai. Arjun agar pyaar ki wajah se janma hai toh aise hajaro udaharan saamne hai lekin fir astra ki jarurat kaise hui?.", Himani apni baat kehti hui Arjun ko dekhne lagi jo ghaas ko niharta hua sunn raha tha.
"Surakhsha ke liye.", Sankshipt sa jawab Arjun ne dia.
"kis se surakhsa?"
"Jo haani pahucha sakta ho ya fir bhavishya ke liye tayaar rehne ke liye.", Arjun ne thoda aur apni baat ko badhava dia.
"Woh jo adrishya dushman hai woh nafrat hai jis se hum khush-hal samay me bhi bhaybhit rehte hai. Tumne agar kuch hansil kia hai toh shayad koi aur bhi wahi chahta ho lekin ab abhaav ki wajah se woh sadharan anjaan ek shatru bann gaya, Nafrat ne wahi paida kia. Jyada saral lehje aur tumhare he tarike se main batana chahti hu agar nana ji aapki bhi anumati ho.", Himani jaise kuch badi baat kehna chaah rahi thi. Vishaya gambhir rukh le raha tha.
"Poori anumati hai.", Aacharya ji ne thaili se bajra nikala aur apni us jagah aa gaye jaha unke pakshi mitro ka jamawada rehta tha.
"Maa Australia thi toh ek vyakti unse ek tarfa pyaar me padd gaya. Galat rasta chayan karte hue usne durachar kia aur maa ne samay aane par mujhe paida kia. Ab batao ke mere paida hone ke peeche kya element tha.?", Himani ki aisi kadwi sachaai sunn kar Arjun ki aatma tak hill gai. Ye kaisa udaharan de dia tha?
"Us vyakti ko pyaar tha lekin aapki maa ne shayad nafrat ki wajah se aisa kia."
"Us vyakti ko aakarshan aur ghamand tha jisne ek bebas mahila ke sath durachar kia aur meri nasamajh maa ko jab pata chala toh unhone aane wale ansh ko aadhe pyaar ke sath swikaar kia. Kehne ka matlab yahi hai ke ek angle agar pyaar dikha raha hai toh jaruri nahi ke shishe me waisa he pratibimb ho. Nafrat agar pyaar ka prayayvachi nahi hai toh woh uska vilom bhi nahi hai. Dono he ek taraju me barabar khade hai. Nafrat bhi janam deti hai aur pyaar bhi janam deta hai. Kuch prakriti ke santulan hamare adhikar ya vash me nahi hote.", Abhi bhi jaise Arjun ke nadaan mann me ye baat sahi se nahi utar paai thi.
"Bhaut khoob lekin mera nanha dost shayad abhi bhi asmanjas me hai. Chalo ab hum hamare tarike se baat karte hai. Jo samarpit hai aur dayalu hai woh khali sthan ko hara bhara banayega aur waha waisa he jiwan panpega jisme khush-hali hogi. Jo kroor hai, ugra aur durachari hai uska aavaran bhi kateela, hinsak aur shakti se bharpoor hoga. Socha jaye toh dono he kaam ek jaisa karenge lekin pyaar se jo paida hua hai woh akela he asankhyo ko khushiya deta hai aur nafrat se paida hone wala asankhyo ke sath milkar ek ko dukh. Nischal saaf sarita (River) ek upjau jameen par prakriti ko smridh karti hai bharpoor jiwan se. Waha machliya, vriksh, fasal, khaniz sab janam lete hai aur viksit hote hai. Waha jivandayini mehak hamesha rehti hai. Aise he ek dushit (Polluted) dariya jaha jayega woh upjau ko banjar, khaane layak phal-phool ko hanikarak aur jehrila kar deta hai. Uske sameep upajne wale jungle durgandh aur vishamta se bhare honge. Tumhe samajhna ye hai ki kaise samanjasya bithaya jaye.", Ab kahi Arjun ke dimag me ye visham paath baith raha tha.
"Jo andar aur bahar se ek samaan saaf hai woh pyaar hai. Jo bahar se ek aakarshan aur andar se viprit-sankeern hai woh nafrat. Dono me he jivan-dayini gunn hai lekin unke natije viprit hai.", Arjun ne jyada lambi baat na karte hue ek chota sa saar keh dia.
"Aane waale jiwan me tumhari mulaqaat hoti rahegi in dono se. Hai toh dono hamare aas-pas he. Tum Arjun se baat karo bitiya main jara Mohan ji se mil lu fir hum ghar chalte hai.", Aacharya ji itna keh kar Arjun ko bajra pakda kar apne dosto ki taraf chale gaye. Aasman bhi ab thoda ujla aur roshan ho chuka tha.
"Toh nana ji ke priya dost tumhi ho?", Lohe ke bench par baith kar Arjun ne mor aur chidiyon ko dana khilana shuru kia toh Himani bhi barabar me baith gai. Ujli kiran si saaf aur vishist thi woh. Poori aastin ki kesariya tshirt aur safed track pajama pehne hue uske sharir ka jyada jayja nahi mil raha tha lekin lambai shayad apne nana ji se virasat me mili thi aur khoobsurti bhi. Arjun ne pal bhar ke liye dhyaan se dekha aur fir se pakshiyo ki taraf chehra kar lia. Uske hath se he mor-morni dana le rahe the.
"Haan woh mere margdarshak aur behad khaas vyakti hai. Sorry, sunn kar bura laga aapki maa ke liye.", Arjun jhijhak raha tha lekin swar me aadar ki bhavna bharpoor thi. Thaili se thoda bajra uthate hue Himani ne bhi uska anusaran kia.
"Jo hua usme tumhara toh kahi koi dosh na tha. Sorry bolkar bewajah khud ko kisi bhi baat ke liye jimmedar mat samjho. Waise jitna tum batate ho tumhara gyaan us se kahi jyada hai."
"Ye topic aapke liye tha jis se aap khulkar apni baat keh sake aur apne mann ko shaant kar sake. Jaise dada ji chahte ho ki agar aap yahi rehne wali hai toh kisi bhi tarah ke vichar mann ko chott na pahuchaye. Sach kahu toh mera kathan poori tarah se vastvik tha aur jo aapne aur guruji ne kaha woh aatma ko shaant karne ke liye. Pyaar kabhi bhi nafrat se kamjor nahi ho sakta. Woh jis bhi cheej ko janam dega usme samaan matra rahegi jivan-dayini ki. Nafrat sirf ek apratyaksh bhavna aur vichar hai jo havi ho kar simit avadhi ke liye shatru bann jata hai. Aisi bhaavna kabhi bhi pyaar ke taraju ko hila he nahi sakti toh santulan toh kahi dur ki baat hai.", Arjun ne palbhar me he Himani ko niruttar kar dia tha.
"Tumhe kaise pata?"
"Dekhiye yaha 2 he log hamesha milte aur tark karte hai. Main aur Aacharya ji, jo ek tarah se mere dada ji he hai. Aap aaj yaha aai toh wajah yahi hogi ki kuch chintan aur prashn vyathit karte honge. 2 alag paribhasha bahot hoti hai dimag ko bhatkane ke liye lekin sahi rasta un dono me se ek ko samajhne par milta hai. Aapka swagat hai.", Is baar Arjun ne Himani ka haath pakad kar apne priya more ke jode ke saamne kar dia toh behichak woh dono is naye hath se khaane lage.
"Ye hamare dost hai aur mere dwara aapka hath pakadne se inhe bhi aap par vishwas hua toh inhone koi sandeh nahi kia. Aise he Aacharya ji ne aapko shamil kia. Janam sirf pyaar se he hota hai. Aapki mata ji ne aapme ek ummeed aur bhavishya dekha, aapka janam unke poore pyaar se hua jo sirf aapse juda tha. Woh vyakti jisne durachar kia usko jab aapne dekh he nahi hai toh woh kahi se bhi vastvik nahi. Behtar toh yahi hoga ke aap wahi sneh aur pyaar apni mata ji ko de jo unhone aapko dia. Zindagi bahot khoobsurat hai jiske maayne hum jaan boojh kar nahi samajhthe.", Arjun jaise Himani ke dil se woh har jakhm gayab kar raha tha jo jaane kitne saalo se antarman ko dard de rahe the.
"Tum itne spasht kaise ho sakte ho? Nana ji bhi mujhse aise nahi baat karte. Aur kisi ladki ka hath uski marji ke bina nahi pakadna chahiye.", Himani ki najre jhuki hui thi.
"Woh aapse itna pyaar karte hai ki aapke jakhm kuredne ki himmat woh nahi karenge. Aur hath ek pal ke liye he pakda tha jis se aapko ye ehsaas karwa saku ki pyaar ke liye humko he kadam uthana padta hai. Ab aapka hath inhone thaam rakha hai.", Arjun ne muskura kar haath se kuch daane saamne bikhere toh Himani dekh rahi thi ki uske hath se ab 3 mor dana chug rahe the aur Arjun ke hath apna kaam kar rahe the.
"Thank you so much.", Halki kampann si thi us khoobsurat chehre se nikli awaaj me.
"Aansu bahar aaya toh dusri aankh me laga lens kharaab ho sakta hai.", Arjun uth kar thoda aage chalte hue kabootaro aur chidhiyo ko daane daalne laga aur peeche bench par baithi Himani aankh saaf karti hairani se Arjun ko dekh rahi thi.
"Woh aisa he hai. Saaf bata deta hai aur har cheej ko gehrai se samajhta hai. Shayad tumhe kuch naye uttar mil gaye honge aur apne aap se bahar nikalne ka rasta bhi.", Aacharya ji ki awaaj sunnkar Himani jhatt uth khadi hui. Ungli se woh kritrim lens hatati woh unke gale lag kar bhavuk ho chuki thi. Aise drishya me Arjun khud ko dur rakhe hue bas in ajaad parindo me khud ko vyast rakh raha tha.
"He's vise and so true. Aapka fainsla thik tha ke main waha akeli rehkar bas khud ko dukh de rahi thi. Ab baaki zindagi bas main aapke he sath rehna chahti hu nana ji.", Aacharya ji ne jald he Himani ko shaant kar dia aur peeth sehlate hue woh muskura rahe the.
"Jawaab kai baar hum khud nahi de sakte beti. Uske liye ek aur rasta jaruri hota hai. Arjun shayad mujhse behtar tumhe samjha sakta tha isliye main tumhe yaha le aaya. Ab bejhijhak tum apne naye dosto se milo aur main Arjun se 2 baatein kar leta hu. Waise woh tumhe university le ja sakta hai agle hafte, meri gair-maujdugi me.", Himani alag hui toh usne koi jawaab nahi dia bas fir se bench par baith kar un pakshiyo ke saamne daane kar diye jo uska he intjaar kar rahe the. Arjun aur Aacharya ji agle 15 minute tak uski najro se kuch duri par gehan baatein karte dikhe. Uske nana ji baaton ke sath he Arjun ke sharir par kahi kahi hath laga kar jaise kuch samjha bhi rahe the.
"Chale Himani beta? Aaj hum dono deri se pahuchne wale hai toh bahana soch lo.", Aacharya ji ki awaaj par Himani khadi hoti hui unki taraf chal padi. Arjun bhi unke he sath bahar ki taraf chal raha tha.
"Hetrochromia koi bimari nahi hai waise. Ek aankh bhoori aur ek neeli.", Aacharya ji apne ek dost se baat kar rahe the aur Arjun ne apni rani ko chalu karne se pehle Himani se itna kaha toh woh muskura di.
"Logo ko aadat nahi hai do-rangi aankho ki lekin koshish karungi ki apno ke saamne inhe lens ki jarurat na pade.", Himani ki baat sunn kar Arjun hath hila kar apne ghar ki taraf chal dia.
.

Is waqt ghar me kaafi chehal-pehal thi aur Arjun ke deri se aane ki wajah se usko Kaushalya ji ki narajgi ka shikar hona pada. Doodh aur laddu se jald faarig hone ke baad woh jald he tayaar ho kar pichle aangan me aa gaya. Apni maa se gale lagne ke sath he Alka didi aur Rupali didi ke sath nashte par thodi masti karta hua woh school ke liye nikal he raha tha ke Kaushalya ji ne pukaar lia.
"Aaj kahi idhar-udhar na bhaag jaio. Dopahar ke khaane ke baad Bittu aayega tujhe lene aur 2 jodi kapde leke uske sath chala jaio."
"Oh daadi main bhulakkad nahi hu. Pata hai mujhe mama ke sath jana hai nanihal aur kal wapis aana hai. Fir agle din Priyanka didi ke sath Punjab jana hai aur Somwar ko sabhi kaam karwa ke wapis aana hai. Bailbuddhi hu lekin mandbuddhi nahi.", Arjun ne Kaushalya ji ka gaal halke se kheencha aur bahar daud gaya.
"Dekh le Rekha tere sapoot ko. Ye chhora na kisi ko kuch nahi samajhta.", Natak karti hui Kaushalya ji jhootha taana de rahi thi.
"Maa ji, aapka he ladla hai woh. Mere pas toh hafte baad he uske darshan hote hai.", Rekha ji ne bhi apni saas ke liye khana- chai lagate hue kaha toh woh hansne lagi.
"Tera agar dil ho toh sath chali ja. Rajesh se bhi mil lio itne saal baad toh aaya hai.", Kaushalya ji ne khaane se pehle ishwar ko yaad karte hue hath jode.
"Nahi maa ji. Rajesh ne milna hoga toh idhar aa jayega. Waise bhi woh pas me hai toh inse milne sunday ko aayega he. Main yahi thik hu.", Rekha ji ne spasht mana kia aur Kaushalya ji apni bahu ke aise jawaab par khush ho gai thi. Waise woh mana toh karti bhi nahi lekin Rekha ka nirnaya unka samarpan batata tha.
"Daadi waise aap chali jao. Sunanda Naani aapko dekhte he jawaan ho jaati hai.", Ritu didi ithlati hui apni daadi ke bagal me baithi toh Kaushalya ji uske sar par halke se chapat lagate hue boli.
"Haan pata hai mujhe teri naani ka. Saal bhar ki kasar nikaal di thi is baar usne baatein karte hue. Waise kuch bhi keh Sunanda samdhan kam aur meri behan jyada hai. Aur tu thoda uski he yaad dilati hai jab teri maa ki shaadi se pehle maine usko dekha tha.", Kaushalya ji jaise kuch yaad karne lagi.
"Na. Komal didi jyada unke jaisi hai."
"Komal Rekha jaisi hai aur tu Sunanda jaisi. Is umar me bhi charbi naa aane di teri naani ne aur jhuriyan toh bhagwan ne uske hisse ki bhi mujhko de di."
"Daadi, kuch bhi bolti ho. Aaj bhi aap dada ji se 15 saal chhoti lagti ho.", Ritu ne itna he kaha tha ke Rameshwar ji ne peeche se aate he uska kaan marod dia.
"Matlab main boodha ho gaya hu?"
"Aaahh.. Aap jo bhi kaho lekin aap jaante ho ke daadi boodhi nahi hui.", Ritu apni baat par kayam rahi toh Rameshwar ji bhi hanste hue uske pas he baith gaye.
"Haan teri baat se main sehmat hu."
"Mujhe roti khaane doge ya nahi? Subah savere nautanki shuru ho gai.", Kaushlaya ji ki baat sunn kar Ritu hansti hui uth gai aur unke chehre par aai sharam dekh kar Rameshwar ji muskurane lage.
.

Rupali didi aur Sandeep ke sath baatein karte hue Arjun school pahuch he gaya. Didi ne bataya tha ke Akanksha se unki baat hui thi. Woh budhwar tak aayegi aur uske sath he daadi aur bua bhi ab unke ghar rehne wale hai. Arjun ko jaan kar atcha laga ke Vinay Taneja ne ye atcha fainsla kia. Teeno he school ke bheetar aaye toh Rupali apni saheliyo ke sath ek taraf chal di aur Arjun galiyare me he Annu aur Menaka ke pas ruk gaya.
"Aaj bhi chutti par ho?", Arjun ne Menaka ke chehre aur gardan par najar daalte hue sawal kia. Menaka ki halat kuch behtar thi aur uske sath he khadi Annu toh peele kameej aur laal salwar me hosh udaa rahi thi. Arjun ne Annu ko bhi muskura kar atche se nihara.
"Haan application dene aai thi Monday tak ki. Waise yaha se faarig ho kar tumhare he ghar ja rahi hu.", Menaka ki baat par Annu ne aankhen badi karte hue usko ghoora. Arjun bhi sab dekh raha tha.
"Iske ghar chali jao jyada thik rahega. Waise bhi parso madam England ja rahi hai.", Arjun ne jaise Annu ki taraf dekhte hue kaha toh Annu ko halki sharam aa gai. Menaka ne najre ghuma kar apni saheli ko dekha aur Arjun ki baat maan li.
"Tum vyast ho?", Menaka ka sawaal shayad bahut kuch poochna chahta tha.
"Yahi se bahar chal sakta hu agar chaho toh. Waise dopahar ko main nanihal ja raha hu aur kal shaam tak aaunga. Sunday aur Monday fir bahar hu. Agar kuch jaruri hai toh main sath he chalta hu.", Arjun ne bejhijhak bata dia tha ke woh school se wapis bahar jaane ko tayaar hai.
"Koi jarurat nahi hai. Thodi der Annu ke ghar baithne ke baad main Ritu aur Alka ko lekar apne ghar he jaane wali hu. Tumse fir mil lungi. Woh baat alag hai ke tum dono ka kuch khaas irada hai toh..", Menaka ne mahol ko thik karte hue baaki dono ki khinchai kar di.
"Ye bina kahe he mujhe poora time deta hai. Mujhe koi shikayat nahi.", Annu jyada baat karna nahi chahti thi. Ghanti ki awaj sunte he Arjun ne dono ko ek baar fir dekha jaise pooch raha ho ke main andar jau ya nahi.
"Tumhari marji hai.", Menaka ne itna kaha toh Arjun unhe paar karte hue aage jaane laga lekin Annu ne hath thaam lia.
"Jaruri hai?", Annu ne hath chhodte hue poocha.
"Nahi koi jaruri nahi hai. Lekin tumhare ghar aunty honge, Menaka apne sath meri behno ko leke apne ghar jaayegi aur main school dress me hu. Batao kya kehti ho?"
"Main Manju ko leke tumhare ghar chali jaati hu. Tum dono auto se mere ghar chale jau.", Manju ne khud he rasta saaf kar dia aur Annu fir se Arjun ki taraf dekhne lagi.
"Chaabi wahi gamle ke pas rakh dena. Main Annu ke sath aadhe ghante me pahuch jaunga.", Arjun un dono ko wahi chhod kar wapis school se bahar chal dia. Menaka bhi Annu ko liye tej kadmo se car ki taraf badh gai. Is beech kisi ne bhi dhyaan nahi dia ke Charul jaise unse baat karne ki pratiksha kar rahi thi.
"Annu.", Charul ne awaaj di toh Annu ne Menaka ko car laane bhej dia.
"Haan Charul."
"Kuch time hai tere pas baat karne ke liye?"
"Haan tum dopahar ko ghar he aa jana main free hu. Abhi Menaka ke sath jaruri jana hai."
"Matlab tum abhi vyast ho?"
"Haan. Mushkil se Arjun ke sath time mila hai toh samajh le.", Annu ne baat kehna he thik samjha.
"Arjun ke liye he baat karni thi. Usne PE-sports ke periods band karwa liye hai apne.", Charul ki aankhon me jaise ek nivedan tha ke Annu kaise bhi karke Arjun se baat karke usko manaye.
"Charul, woh uski behan ne kia hai. Ab galti toh teri bhi hai jo tune negative feedback dia. Shukar kar ki unhone tujhse safaai nahi maangi. Tu kya karna chahti hai pehle woh thande dimag se soch aur fir Arjun se baat kar. Woh samjhega aur tujhe sahi jawaab dega. Aisa na ho ke ek aur galat kadam aur fir sabkuch badal jaaye. Tune khud he bataya tha na ke Arjun ki family kaisi hai?", Annu ne ek atchi saheli hone ke naate sahi salah di aur Charul ka sar sharmindgi me jhukk gaya.
"Pareshan mat ho. Jo kaha hai wahi kar. Din me ghar aa jana.", Menaka ki awaaj sunnkar Annu itna keh kar furti se nikal chali.

Romela ghar ke pichle hisse me bagiche ka kaam dekh rahi thi. Nashte se faarig ho kar baaki sab bhi apni dincharya me lage the aur Preeti titli is fudakti hui ghar ke andar he ghoom rahi thi. Apni maa ke kamre me najar daalte he woh us gulab ke gamle ko dekhne se khud ko rok na paai. Araam se chalti woh khidke ke pas pahchi he thi ki raste me lakdi ke table par pade chitra par najar atak gai.
'Ye Arjun hai?', Khud se sawaal karti woh 12x16 inch ke us kagaz ko dekhne lagi jaha koyle se ek behad aakarshak roop-rekha banai gai thi. Preeti kuch pal us chitra ko niharne ke baad is badi daraaz ko khol kar dekhne lagi jaha uski maa kache chitra (Raw-Sketches) rakhti thi waise he rangeen aur bade chitra banane se pehle. Koi 25-30 motte kagaz bade saleeke se rakhe gaye.
'Ye bhi Arjun he hai lekin kapde kaha hai iske?', Is chitra me Arjun ka prishth bhaag anavrit (Nude) tha. Preeti pal bhar is chitra ko bhi dekhne ke baad sabhi kaagaz dekhne lagi aur usko hairani hui ki 28 me se 7 chitra sirf Arjun ke he banaye the uski maa ne. Spasht tha ke jyadatar me Arjun ka dhyaan kahi aur tha aur sharir ardhnagna ya purn-nirvastra tha, kalaktmak tarike se.
"Pasand nahi aaye?", Romela apni beti ko shayad kuch samay se dekh rahi thi. Preeti ke chehre par aate-jaate bhaav dekh kar fir baat karna he thik samjha.
"Nahi aisi baat nahi hai maa. Lekin kya Arjun ko pata hai?", Preeti ne jahir nahi kia tha ke usko atcha laga hai ya bura. Yaha bhi usko Arjun ki parwah thi.
"Shayad yahi wajah hai ke woh yaha nahi aaya itne dino se. Ye sketch usne dekh lia tha aur fir jyada baat kiye bina woh chala gaya. Baaki drawings maine usko dhyaan me rakhte hue banaye. He is one handsome model, you know that?", Romela ka najariya jaise kuch aur he tha Arjun ko dekhne aur uske chitra banane ke liye.
"Aapko ye batana chahiye tha. Woh thoda strange hai maa. Aap usko kehti ki aisi tasvir chahiye aur aap unhe sketch karengi toh woh khud tayaar ho jata. Ab usko lag raha hoga ki isme uski he galti hogi.", Preeti jaanti thi apne pyaar ko.
"Don't worry beta. Main baat karungi Arjun se. Waise agar bata kar photo leti toh itne natural aur artistic pose nahi aa sakte the. Lekin tumhari baat sahi hai ke kahi na kahi woh naraaj hai. Aur ho sakta hai woh kuch aur he soch raha ho. Main khud milne jaungi us se.", Romela ne apni beti ke sar ko sehlate hue kaha.
"Waise mamla kuch aur toh nahi maa? Bata dena.", Preeti apni maa se dur jaati hansti hui kehne lagi. Romela ka gulabi chehra thoda laal ho gaya uski baat ka matlab samjhte he.
"Shaitan.. Main maa hu tumhari. Aur woh bacha hai.", Romela ne jhempte hue jawaab dia aur sabhi chitro ko daraaj me rakhne lagi. Preeti darwaje ke pas ek pal ke liye ruki aur fir se boli.
"Woh last wala sketch dekh kar toh nahi lagta ke Arjun bacha hai. Human anatomy thodi bahot sabhi padhte aur samajhte hai.", Itna kehkar woh ghar se bahar he nikal bhaagi. Romela hansti hui aakhiri chitra ko nikaal kar dekhne lagi toh ek pal ke liye aankhen band kar li. Jaise woh us drishya ko yaad karne lagi ho jab nehar se nikalne ke baad Arjun kapde badalne laga tha aur toliya hatate samay uska latakta hua naag camera ke saath he Romela ke dil me bhi qaid ho gaya tha.
'He is abnormal. You are really lucky my darling. Aisa lover sabko nahi milta.', Fir ek sharmili muskaan ke sath us chitra ko Romela ne alag he rakh dia ek aur file me. Muskurati hui woh fir se ghar ke pichle hisse ki aur chal di jaha mitti-khaad ka kaam chal raha tha.
.

Arjun 1 baje he school ke bahar aa khada hua. 10 minute baad he Sandeep aur Rupali didi bhi andar se uske pas aa gaye the. Idhar udhar ki baatein karte woh apne ghar ki taraf chal diye.
"Aaj physics wali Grover madam ne kaha hai ki aaj se lekar next friday tak woh 4 chapters complete karwa dengi. Summer holidays se pehle 7 chapter kam se kam complete hone chahiye aisa woh keh rahi thi.", Rupali didi ki baat sunn kar Arjun ne aise jahir kiya jaise usko jhatka laga ho.
"Mera toh bahot loss ho jayega aise toh didi. Main toh Tuesday tak school ja nahi paunga."
"Rehne de Birbal, tu na jitna chantt hai mujhe sab pata chal gaya hai. Ritu bata rahi thi mujhe aur teri class me meri saheliya bhi hai ye yaad rakhna. Poori kitaab ghot kar baitha hai aur baat karta hai loss ki.", Rupali didi ne jaise itra ke kaha toh Arjun unko hanste dekh khud bhi khush ho gaya. Kitni masoom aur saaf thi uski ye bua-behan.
"Aap kaunsa kam ho. Ritu didi ne bhi mujhe bataya ki aajkal aap unke sath late night tak study kar rahi ho. Aur sath he Preeti ke physics ke notes khatam kar chuki ho 12th class tak ke.", Arjun ki baat sunn kar woh ithlaati hui uska hath thaam kar chalne lagi.
"Aisa hai na Ritu ko sath me padhne ke liye kisi ki jarurat nahi padti lekin raat me kamre ka mahol alag he hota hai. Alka 2-3 baje tak padhti hai aur Tara-Aarti bhi ab sath baithne lagi hai. Ek topic shuru ho jaye toh fir woh itne khatam nahi hota jitne clear na ho jaye. Shaam ko 2-3 ghante Preeti bhi sath rehti hai aur woh chemistry me bahot jyada he tej hai. Pata nahi Architect bann ne ka kya bhoot hai uspe, main uski jagah hoti toh scientist bann na pasand karti.", Arjun ko khushi hui ki ghar ki ladkio ka mahol itna khushnuma aur sehyogi hai.
"Waise aapko pareshani toh nahi hoti kisi ke sath?"
"Pagal hai kya? Ajeeb toh lagta tha shuru me lekin ab sahi batau toh Ritu aur Komal didi ke bina toh main apne hone ki kalpana bhi nai kar sakti. Tara aur Alka bhi kam nahi hai. Shuru me mujhe Tara ka rehan sehan dekh kar lagta tha ke woh alag hai lekin Tara dil se bahot badi hai aur usne meri kaafi madad ki sab badlav samajhne aur apnane me."
"Maa ke sath bhi chipak ke soti ho.", Arjun ne tedha sa mooh banate hue kaha aur dono ghar ke andar aa gaye the.
"Hahaha. Tujhe bura lagta hai kya? Is se pehle kabhi maa ka pyaar nahi mila na mujhe toh ab Rekha maa ke sath woh kami poori kar rahi hu. Sach kahu toh maine bapu aur ek khali ghar ko he dekha tha apni pichli zindagi me. Ye bilkul viprit aur swarg sa sansaar hai jaha mujhse koi nafrat nahi karta, koi jali-kati baat nahi sunata. Waha toh kaaki aur gaanv ke log mujhe kulta, abhagan, bechari aur jaane kya kya kehte the. Itna pyaar yaha mila toh aisa lag raha hai jaise woh zindagi bas ek tapasya si thi.", Hansti khelti Rupali didi ki kajrari aankhon me 2 boond paani neeche ludhakne laga toh Arjun ne unko apne seene se laga lia. Woh dono andar aangan me khade the jaha Komal didi aur Lalita ji ne ye dekha toh woh dono unke pas daudi chali aai.
"Kya kaha tune meri bachi ko? Kuch akal hai ya bailbuddhi dikha di apani?", Lalita ji ne Rupali ko apni taraf karte hue seene se lagaya toh woh rote hue bhi muskura rahi thi. Ye dekh kar Komal didi kuch shaant hui.
"Dekha Arjun maine kya paya hai?", Rupali didi itna bol kar Lalita ji ka gaal choom kar seedhi Komal didi wale kamre me chali gai. Arjun khush tha ke is ghar me itna pyaar hai ke woh sabke liye bharpoor tha.
"Mujhe toh koi pyaar he nahi karta. Aur ye dekho log ab mujhe he jimmewar thehra dete hai bina baat samjhe.", Arjun narajgi dikhata upar seedhiya chadh kar kamre me chala gaya toh Komal didi bhi apne bhai ke peeche he ho li. Lalita ji uski nautanki dekh kar hansti hui kaam me lag gai.
Upar kamre me is waqt koi na tha. Alka aur Ritu kuch waqt pehle he Manju Menaka ke sath chali gai thi. Arjun araam se apni school ki vardi utaar kar sirf nikkar pehne toliya le kar nahane ke liye nikal raha tha ki darwaje par khadi Komal didi ko dekh kar thithak gaya. Woh shayad tabse he khadi thi jab Arjun kamre ke andar aa kar kapde utaar raha tha. Nazar ka chasma didi ke hath me tha aur bas woh Arjun ko he nihar rahi thi. Dheeli safed kurti aur waisi he sadharan sooti pajami me unka sondarya kisi bhi sundarta ki devi ko maat de sakta tha. Woh aisi he toh thi. Prakritik sundarta aur hamesha saaj-sajja se pare lekin sabse khoobsurat yuvti.
"Aaj Damyanti Sudama ke dwaar par.?", Arjun ki chuhal bhari baat sunn kar Komal didi lapak kar uske seene se ja lagi.
"Kyo satate ho aise.?", Komal didi ka yu uske seene se lagna ek pal ke liye Arjun se bahot kuch keh gaya. Unka woh pyara chehra hatho me thaamte hue Arjun ne maathe ko choomte hue unki aankhon me dekha.
"Main kabhi aapko sata sakta hu? Aur kis baat ka darr hai aapko?"
"Tum bahot kuch chupane lage ho mujhse. Maan lia ki bade ho rahe ho lekin kya tumhe kabhi aisa nahi lagta ke agar tumhe kuch ho gaya toh main zinda kaise rahungi? Maa aur Ritu ke sath he baaki sabka kya hoga?", Komal didi ka uske sath aise gale lage rehna aur ab aansu bahana 2 alag halaat bayaan kar rahe the. Ek taraf unka Arjun ke prati atoot prem toh dusre me woh jaise gehre dard se jhoojh rahi thi. Arjun ne didi ko bister par bithane ke baad kamra andar se band kar lia. Waise iski jarurat nahi thi kyonki bahar wala darwaja didi khud he band karke aai thi.
"Aapse kuch chhipp nahi sakta lekin sach kahu toh main khud batane ki himmat nahi juta pa raha tha. Lekin itna yakeen dilata hu aapko ki mujhe kuch nahi hoga.", Arjun Komal didi ke ghutno par hath rakhe jameen par baitha tha.
"Menaka ne bataya mujhe ki kya ho sakta tha tere sath. Richa ko jyada nai pata tha lekin tabtak mujhe lag raha tha ke tum kuch hadd tak he shamil hoge is sab me aur surakshit hoge. Lekin itni badi baat ho gai aur tumne kuch kehna bhi jaruri nahi samjha.", Komal didi ke aansu ruk nahi rahe the aur unhe dekh kar Arjun ke dil me bhi dard hone laga tha.
"Waisa nahi karta toh Menaka ke sath he bahot saari zindagai khatre me padd jati. Papa, dada ji, Manju, Sanjiv bhaiya, aap sabhi ki aur meri bhi. Fir bhi main maafi maangta hu aapse, mera maksad aapko dukh pahuchane ka nahi tha.", Arjun unke barabar baithte hue us chaand se chehre ko thik karne laga. Woh kisi ko bhi dard me nahi dekh sakta tha lekin Komal didi ki aankho ka paani shayad dil par tejab sa lagta tha uske. Didi shaant aur majboot vyaktitva wali thi, jinhe rona sirf ek he surat me aata tha agar Arjun kasht me hota tha.
"Main ye nahi keh rahi ki tune kuch galat kia Aaru. Lekin zindagi me aise chakravyuh tu akela nahi bhed sakta. Ek galat kshann ya kadam sabkuch tabah kar sakta hai. Kya hota agar Bijender aur uske dost beech me nahi aate? Umed uncle waha nahi pahuchte toh? Shabnam ke log agar accident me nahi maare jaate toh Umed uncle ke sath Bijender, uske dost aur tum bhi maare jaate. Har baar kismat itni meharbaan nahi hoti.", Arjun unhe gale lagaye sab sunn raha tha lekin Shabnam ka jikar hote he usko jhatka laga.
"Ye kya keh rahi hai aap? Shabnam ke konse aadmi aa rahe the waha? Aur ye Menaka nahi bata sakti kyonki usko toh khud nahi pata tha."
"Usko dada ji ne bataya tha kal. Tu dopahar me jab ghar se gaya tha toh Menaka aai thi ghar pe. Aur aaj jab meri baat ho rahi thi toh usne bataya ke #### shehar se 7-8 log tum sabhi ko maarne ke liye aa rahe the us jagah lekin bypass se 10 kilometer pehle truck ke sath unka accident ho gaya. 2 log he zinda bache aur unhone ye bayaan dia tha ke Shabnam ne 20 lakh diye the is kaam ke liye. Warehouse me maujud har shakhs ko maar dalne ke liye. Tum khud socho agar woh hadsa nahi hota toh koi bhi zinda bachta kya? Aainda se agar tumne aise anjane kshadyantra me ghusne ki koshish ki toh ghar pe tumhe meri laash he milegi.", Komal didi rote hue ekaek gusse me ubal padi. Arjun kuch jawaab de pata us se pehle he woh dandanati hui darwaja khol kar bahar nikal gai.
'Ye kya tha? Ho gai galti aur samjha bhi dia ke woh karna jaruri tha lekin apne aap ko maarne ki baat kaha se aa gai? Zinda hu aur thik bhi. Pata nahi didi itna pareshan kyu ho gai?', Arjun is udhedbunn me he tha ke uski maa saamne se aati dikhi. Woh hamesha ki tarah shaant aur Arjun ko dekh kar muskura rahi thi.
"Ja naha le tab tak main tere kapde nikalti hu. Almari bhi thik karne wali hai.", Rekha ji ne aate he Arjun ki almari me dhule hue kapde rakhe aur usko nikkar me khade dekh nahane ke liye kaha.
"Maa ye Komal didi ne aaj kuch galat-salat khaa lia kya?", Arjun khud he jaise sadme me tha.
"Woh tujhe apni jaan se badh kar chahti hai, badi behan hai teri. Ladkiya shivji ke vrat rakhti hai pati paane ke liye lekin Komal Shanidev ki pooja ke sath he Surya-vrat rakhti hai teri lambi aur sehatmand zindagi ke liye. Agar tujhse anjaane me koi galti hui hai ya koi aisi baat hai jis se Komal ko thess pahuchi ho toh pyaar se mana lena thik rahega. Nahi toh aaj woh nirjala rehne wali hai.", Rekha ji ke itna kehte he Arjun ne upar tshirt pehni aur bina nahaye he bahar bhaag gaya. Woh muskurati hui bas apne bacho ke is atoot pyaar aur ek dusre ke liye itna samarpan ko dekhti khush thi. Ek bag me Arjun ke 2 jodi kapde, kurta pyjama, toliya rakhti woh baki kaam bhi karne lagi.
"Didi darwaja kholo.", Arjun ne Komal didi ke kamre ka band darwaja peet-te hue awaaj di. Lekin darwaja 4-5 baar peetne ke baad he khula woh bhi thoda sa.
"Kya hai?", Didi ne jharokhe se itna he poocha lekin Arjun utni he jagah me ungliya fasa kar ek taraf ka hissa kholta andar aa gaya. Fir se darwaja band karne ke baad usne peeche se he didi ko baahon me bhar lia.
"I'm really sorry. Aapko bura laga ke maine woh sab kia toh main vachan deta hu ke aaj ke baad aisa koi kaam nahi karunga jis se aapki aankhon me kabhi aansu aaye. Bas mujhse naraaj mat hona kabhi.", Arjun jis tarah se Komal didi se lipta tha uska dhadakta dil didi bhi apni peeth par mehsoos kar rahi thi. Unhe bhi pata tha ke Arjun beshak Ritu Preeti ya kisi se bhi beinteha mohabbat kar sakta hai lekin jo rishta un dono ke beech tha woh apne aap me sarvopari tha.
"Maine aisa nahi kaha Aaru. Bas ye kaha hai ke saamna us paristhiti ka kar jo tere saamne ho, jis se tu bhaag nahi sakta. Jis khel ka tu hissa bana woh kahi se bhi tera nahi tha. Kuch bade aur purane khel aise hai jinhone apno ko bhi ghar se dur kar dia hai. Tu agar papa jaisa he bann-na chahta hai toh fir chhodd de kisi ko bhi pyaar karna kyonki teri manzil kabhi nahi milegi. Dada ji se kabhi sawaal karke dekh ki woh sabki najro ke saamne jaise dikhte hai kya sachmuch woh utne he sadharan aur nishchint hai? Kyo Narinder chacha is ghar se 25 saal dur rahe? Kaun hai Chandro Daadi aur Shabnam ke aisa karne ki wajah kya hai.? Main nahi chahti ki tu kabhi bewajah kasoorwar bane aisi ghatna ka jis se jaane kitne he log jude hai.", Komal didi ghoom kar fir se Arjun se lipat gai thi.
"Aap jo chahti hai waisa he hoga. Main shayad kuch jyada he chhan-been karne ki wajah se woh kar gaya jo ek tarah se roka ja sakta tha, mere bina he.", Arjun apne khoji mann ko ab band karna chahta tha.
"Jaanti hu ki dadaji tujhe ek alag aur khaas insaan bana rahe hai lekin uska maksad alag hai bhai. Tu hamesha se alag he tha isliye woh tera itna dhyaan rakhte hai. Kal agar tu papa ke nakshe kadam par chala toh jo hoga woh itihaas se kahi jyada bura ho sakta hai."
"Main itihaas nahi dohraunga didi. Maine aapse vaada kia hai ki bina wajah main kisi fasaad me nahi padunga. Lekin us waqt halaat kuch alag the aur agar main waisa kuch na karta toh fir wahi hota jo main keh raha hu. Sanjiv bhaiya bhi hospital me hai jo shayad hamare beech na hote agar main waha nahi hota.", Arjun apni didi ko himmat dete hue apni baat kehne laga.
"Ye sab isliye hua kyonki unhe pata tha Papa nahi hai aur tu unka waris hai. Sanjiv bhaiya toh hamesha tera sath denge lekin har jayedad tabtak bacho ko nahi leni chahiye jabtak bade khud woh tumhare naam na kare. Jis din dada ji ya papa tumhe apne pas bitha kar sab bataye toh tum unka sath dena. Aise josh me aur akele nikal padna bahaduri nahi bewkoofi kehlati hai. Soch jara agar tujhe kuch ho jata toh is ghar me kya baaki rehta?", Komal didi ki baat bilkul thik thi. Arjun ko dadaji ne jo kaam dia tha woh usko ghere se bahar reh kar he karna tha. Unhone mana kia tha ke usko saamne nahi aana lekin Menaka aur Sushila ki khatir usne woh jokhim utha lia tha.
"Kal raat bhi ghar par humla hone wala tha didi. Maine ghar ke bahar 4 logo ko behosh kar dia tha kyonki woh bandook ke sath hamare ghar me ghusne wale the.", Arjun ke aise khulase se Komal didi hairaan reh gai. Chehra saaf karne ke baad khud ko thoda durust kia aur Arjun ka hath pakad kar woh dada ji wale kamre ki taraf chal di.
Kaushalya devi bister par baithi Ramayan padh rahi thi aur Komal didi ne phone ko khiska kar ek number milaya.
"Ye number mila dijiye jara. XXXXX XXX XXXX.", Kuch der shanti chaai rahi aur Kaushalya ji bhi woh bada granth band karti in dono bhai behan ko dekhne lagi.
"Haan Papa. Aapko yaha ki khabar hai?", Line par dusri taraf Shankar ji the jo Komal didi dwara papa kehte he Arjun samajh gaya.
"Aapne jaane se pehle shayad kisi ko bhi samjhaya nahi hoga.", Dusri taraf se jaise jaankari li gai lekin didi toh khud he sawaal kar rahi thi. Fir Shankar ji ne kuch poocha toh didi ne is baar seedha batana he thik samjha.
"Munna ne kal raat 4 logo ko ghar pe humla karne se roka. Sabke pas hathiyaar the.", Aisi spasht baat sunte he Kaushalya ji ke rongte khade ho gaye aur didi ne phone Arjun ki taraf badha dia.
"Hello, namastey papa.", Arjun ne saamne ki awaaj sunai dene se pehle he abhivadan kia.
"Toh mera beta ab bada ho gaya hai? Jara visaar se bataoge ke kal raat kya hua? Main yaha vyast tha toh kisi se baat nahi ho paai meri.", Shankar ji ne seedha mudde ki baat ki apne bete ko ek chupi hui shabashi dene ke sath.
"Kal raat main jaldi so gaya tha chatt par lekin fir yaad aaya ke gate ke tala nahi lagaya hai toh 1 ya dedh baje main bahar tala lagane gaya tha. Bahar chowkidar uncle ko dekh kar main kuch der unse baatein kar raha tha ke ek gaadi hamari taraf aate hue ruk gai.", Iske baad Arjun ne poori baat bina laag-lapet ke waise he bataai jaise ghatna ghati thi. Police ki gaadi ke aane tak. Kaushalya ji ke sath he is waqt Rameshwar ji aur Col sahab bhi kamre me baithe the jinke baare me shayad Arjun ko pata nahi chala.
"Toh tumne unhe zinda chhod dia?"
"Papa, mera farz tha unhe rokna aur uchit saja dena. Baaki toh aapko police se pata chal he jayega ke woh log kaun the. Jaruri baat ye hai ki raat 10 baje wala sector ka naka paar karke woh yaha tak kaise aa gaye aur market wali PCR ki gaadi bhi toh apni jagah nahi thi.", Arjun kitna kuch samajhta hai ye baat Rameshwar ji bhali bhaanti jaante the lekin Shankar ji hairaan the ki unka ladka har pehlu par gor karta hai.
"Abhi tum sunday tak ghar he rehna. Sanjiv ko main phone karke bhejta hu waha."
"Bhaiya nahi aa sakte abhi ghar. Aur mujhe jameen ke kaam se aaj nana ji ke pas jana hai. Kal subah waha bhoomi poojan bhi hai. Lekin aap bataiye main wahi karunga.", Arjun ne jaise he Sanjiv ke ghar na aane ki baat kahi toh Shankar ji ne gehri saans li.
"Waha kaun kaun baitha hai is waqt?"
"Dada ji, daadi, chote daadu aur Komal didi hai mere pas.", Arjun ne sabhi taraf dekh kar naam bata diye.
"Darwaja band kar do aur loudspeaker par karo phone ko.", Beetel ka ye aadhunik landline phone tha aur isme speaker pe baat karne ki suvidha thi. Arjun ne handle ek taraf rakhte hue 'LS' ka laal button daba kar dabba bister par rakh dia. Andar ki taraf se dono darwaje band karne se pehle awaaj sunai di.
"Maa, aap aur Komal ek baar mujhe baat karne do.", Shankar ji ki awaaj sunn kar na chahte hue bhi Kaushalya ji Komal ko sath le kar bahar nikal gayi. Iske baad Rameshwar ji ne baat karni shuru ki.
"Shankar."
"Haan papa. Ye Arjun keh raha hai ke Sanjiv ghar nahi aa sakta. Waha par chal kya raha hai? Maa se baat har roj ho rahi hai lekin mujhe khabar toh woh leti rehti hai lekin udhar ka kuch nahi bataya."
"Mujhe laga ke Umed ya Dharmvir ji se tumhari baat hui hogi, isliye ghar se tumhe koi sandesh nahi dia. Woh Sheela Devi ke maamle me tum thik the beta. Ab tumhe kuch nahi pata toh main itna kahunga ki yaha tumhare jaane ke baad bahut kuch ho gaya hai.", Rameshwar ji abhi bhi seedhi baat nahi kar rahe the.
"Chacha se meri kal din me he baat hui thi lekin unhone bhi sirf hospital aur Krishna ki he baatein ki. Sheela devi ne kya kia?"
"Sheela devi ka pariwar saaf karna padd gaya. Mohar Singh ke sath kuch 7-8 log aur bhi us ghatna me maare gaye. Umed ke bhi goli lagi aur Sanjiv ki bhi jaan jaise taise bachi. Lekin dono he ab behtar hai aur thik hai. Kal raat wala vakeya toh mujhe bhi abhi thodi der pehle he pata laga hai jab main Dharamvir se milne gaya. Bhan Singh ne yojnabadh tarike se Bhupinder, Dharamvir ji ke ghar aur hamare ghar par humla karne ki saajish ki. Bhupinder ka beta uske sanrakshan me tha jisko sahi salamat filhal Nirmal Singh ki custody me rakha hai. Bhupinder ke ghar pe humla hone se Bhupinder, uski beti aur Paramvir ghayal hue lekin hamlavar sabhi maare gaye. Dharamvir ke ghar 5 log gaye the jinhe unke logo ne sambhal lia tha aur yaha jo 4 aaye the woh sabhi emergency me hai Arjun ki badolat.", Rameshwar ji ko itna bolte dekh Arjun ne paani ka gilas unki taraf badha dia. Ek ghoont bharne ke baad woh Shankar ki awaaj sunn ne lage.
"Isko ghar se jaane mat dena bahar aur agar jameen ka kaam jaruri hai toh ye aana jana karega sarkari gaadi me. Raat me filhal Satish chacha ko boliye ke woh cantt se Govind aur Muneer ko bula le. Sushila-Shabnam aur jo bhi baaki hai unka kaam main aate he karunga.", Shankar ki awaaj me jo peeda aur gussa tha woh teeno ko samajh aa gaya tha.
"Shankar, tum jaisa chahte ho waisa he hoga. Sushila ko Arjun ne badal dia hai aur Chandro devi ko khud bhai sahab ne bachaya. Chaaro pariwar abhi sahi halat me hai aur humko woh log pareshan nahi kar sakte. Bhan Singh ne jo kia usme Jailor Amrik Singh, SHO Rajpal aur Bhan Singh ke kuch madadgar shamil the. Sabhi ab nigrani me hai aur halat ab fir se anukool hai. Tumhe koi nahi rokega kuch karne se lekin pehle baat jarur karna.", Col Puri ne jis tarah se baat kahi us se kuch hadd tak Shankar ka gussa kam jarur ho gaya.
"Sushila ne galti maani? Shabnam ka kya kia hai?"
"Arjun ne un dono ki jaan bachai hai. Sushila ne gaanv ke saamne galti maani hai aur woh fir se badi bhabhi ki bahu bann kar wapis jaane wali hai. Filhal mahina lagega usko thik hone me aur Shabnam khas jagah hai kyonki mujhe laga tum jyada atche se poochtach kar sakte ho. Chook hui hai thodi bahot lekin dono hadso me Arjun ne badhia kaam kia hai lekin isko dur rakhna he behtar hai. Tum bol dena Dharamvir bhai ko ke waise he surakshakarmi ab main rakhne ko tayaar hu. 2-4 jitne bhi dil kare. Unke charon bachon ne kal raat atcha kaam kia hai jaisa pata laga."
"Aap tayar hai?"
"Ab toh jaruri hai. Arjun ki aankh har raat sahi samay par khule jaruri nahi. Unki hamesha khuli rehti hai. Aur isko maine he leke ja raha hu Rajesh ke pas lekin kal ye khud chala jayega bhoomi poojan ke liye."
"Thik hai. Main chacha se baat karta hu. Baaki kisi ko kuch batane ki jarurat nahi. Kal dopahar ki flight hai meri toh parso pahuch jaunga main. Krishna ka bhi operation thik ho gaya hai kal raat toh 15 din baad woh dono bhi aa jayenge. Rakhta hu.", Shankar ke phone rakhte he ab Arjun apne dada ji ko dekh raha tha aur woh usko.
"Barkhurdar, kapde badal lo aur Komal ko kehna ke 2 chai bana de. Chalo lage hath tumhare nana se bhi mil aate hai.", Ek phone se he sara program pal me badal gaya tha. Arjun bhi unki baat maante hue darwaja khol kar bahar nikal chala aur Rameshwar ji koi aur number milane lage.
