Kalyug ka Chakravyuh
"Mujhe tumse baat karni hai. Kya hum thodi der akele me baat kar sakte hai Arjun?", Dopahar ka khana khatam karte he Arjun uthne laga tha. Samne baithi Manju ne jhooth bol dia tha ke woh ghar se he khaa ke aai. Idhar Aarti ne bhi khaane ke baad rasoi sambhal li thi. Bartan, chulhe ki safaai aur Lalita ji apne kamre me chali gai thi, kyonki woh hamesha wahi khana khati thi.
"Tum sath he chalne wali ho stadium toh hum waha baat kar lenge Manju. Abhi sharir thoda thaka hua hai aur agar araam nahi kia toh shaam ki practice prabhavit hogi.", Arjun ne halki si muskaan dete hue Manju ko jawaab dia aur fir apne dada ji ke kamre me aa kar leit gaya. Manju ab thodi aur pareshan ho gai thi lekin woh jaahir na karte hue Aarti ke he pas chali gai. Arjun hath ke neeche takiya dabaye leit chuka tha.

3 baj rahe the aur aamtaur par garmiyo ke shuruwaat bhi pradesh me thodi tej he rehti thi is waqt. Log-bag aise samay gaanv-dehat me ghar me andar rehte hai ya khet me peid ke neeche araam karte hai. Lekin swargiya Rammehar ke yaha iske viprit mahol tha. Sushila ne Mohar Singh ko kuch jaruri kaam se agle shehar bhej dia tha aur iske peeche bhi uska maksad kuch aur he tha. Yaha gaanv ke bahar ek purani haveli me woh 5 mardo ke beech akeli mahila thi lekin dekhne se yahi pratit hota tha ke sabhi uske shubhchintak he the.
"Bebe, is baar katai kaam khatam he kar dena hai. Na yu Rameshwar ka jhanjhat arr na teri saas Chandro ka.", Ye 45-50 saal ka robila adhed Sushila ka mamera bhai tha aur jaise kareebi raajdar.
"Narsingh, meri pareshani ki wajah hai Bheem, Shabnam arr Bijender. Rameshwar ka pauta toh maaran khatir 8-10 tayaar hai lekin Bijender pehla uske gail akele bhidega baad me Bheem kaam kar dega uska. Lekin Bheem chahve hai aadhi jayedad, Babita arr Menaka. Shabnam raand hai jo mere khayaal se kaal manne bhi raste se hata sake hai kyunki sirf mere dhore he uske saboot hai.", Baaki paancho dhyaan se dekh rahe the Sushila ko
"Bijender?", Narsingh ne itna he poocha.
"Woh bawla ho chukya hai. Babita pasand hai arr shaadi ki ratt laag ri hai uske."
"Bebe, zinda gaad diunga je usne koi aisi harkat karan ki sochi bhi. Naam maati me milavega kunbe ka arr biradari ka.", Ye toh pal me he angare sa dehakne laga tha aur baaki sabke bhi chehre waise ho gaye the.
"Shaant reh. 2 saal jail me bhejan ki sochu thi arr itni der me Babita ka byaah bhi kade kar he devange aapni pehchaan me. Tu arr thaam baaki sab dhyaan dio ke jagah pe 6 baje pahuchna hai. Bheem ka kaam khatam karna hai arr fer uss chhore ki lash Rameshwar ki gali me fenkni hai. Shabnam hath chadhe toh sasuri kar dio saaf waah bhi.", Sushila sach me he jehar ugal rahi thi. Uska iraada he nahi tha kisi ko bhi chhodne ka.
"Bebe fer Bindu ne ke kahvegi?", Ye ek aur tagda sa adhed tha jo kursi par baithe hue bhi baaki sabse 5-6 inch uncha he tha.
"Kaale, ek kaam kar fer Bijender ne bhi kaat diye arr Menaka ne bhi. Sala sabut ae koni chhodna arr Arjun Sharma bi godaam me mara milega toh apne aap maamla hawa pakad lega.", Sushila ne ek paanv kursi ke upar rakhte hue thuddi ke neeche hath laga lia.
"Bahot dur ki sochhi se tanne. Menaka ka chakkar Pandit ke paute se, Bijender ka Shabnam gail arr Bheem ne badle ke chakkar me yu kar dia lekin mara gaya unke sath he. Chokhi kahani milegi ya toh. Lekin baaki sab dhyaan rakhio ke koi sa kisi ki najar me naa chadh je. Pehla he saali police kutte ki tarah paache laag ri hai.", Narsingh ke palle ye khooni kaand padd gaya tha.
"Fer ek chhota sa kaam rahvega lekin woh toh main aap kar liyungi. Bindu ki dusri chhori Muskaan ke bhi parr kaatne padenge, jaane waah bhi bahot kuch hai.", Sushila kya karne wali thi ye toh bas wahi jaanti thi lekin kitno ko maut dene ka iraada banaye thi ye khatarnaak baat thi.
"Woh bhi ho je ga bebe. Tu 13 din dukh me bita ke fer kunba kattha kar liye. Mahara bhi sabkuch tera hai, Rammehar fufa ka bhi arr teri sasuraad ka bhi. 40 gaam kabje me aaye paache toh tu he ticket leve gi. Fer main dekhu us doctor ne arr uske ghar ki lugaiya ne.", Narsingh ki aisi baat sunnkar Sushila hansne lage.
"Manne yaad hai ke teri najar uski lugai pe hai. Yaad bhi hai kitne saal pehla dekhi thi.?
"Aaho. Aaj lak yaad hai waah arr sach kahu toh itni jaanleva aurat na dekhi bebe kade.", Narsingh jaise yaadon me Rekha ji ka chehra dhyaan karne laga tha.
"Chaal waa sab bahot dur ki baat hai. Filhal toh aaj ki ghadi dhyaan me raakho. Thodi si bhi chook hoi aur saare sapne khatam.", Sushila waha se khadi ho kar paidal he gaanv ki taraf chal nikli.
"Narsingh, aapni baat yaad rakhiye. Main yu kaam ki keemat leke rahunga. Tu mukar konya sakda.", Sath he baithe itni der se shaant is lambe chaude adhed ki baat sunn kar Narsingh daant dikhane laga.
"Bhai Sushila ki leni hai ne? Le liye. Yaad rakhio koi sa ni bachna chahiye Sushila ne chhod ke. Raat ne haveli bhi saaf kar deni hai.", Narsingh ki aisi baat par woh lamba vyakti bol utha.
"Babita ki pehle maarunga fer usne maarunga. Thaam log bhi dekh lio 3-4 hai unki haveli me. Junn si hath chadhe koi reham ni arr jitna dil kar kario fer ..... samajhdar ho kunsa pehli baar karoge. Hahaha.", Kaala dil aur mann ka bhi kala he tha aur in sabme kahi taqatwar. Ye dusre raste se chal pade tayaari karne ke liye.
.
.
"Gollu bhai, ke lage hai ke jo bhi hon laag reha hai woh thik se? Mama ki baat sachi hai lekin dusri taraf maa hai meri. Usne beech mai konni chhoddu.", Bijender 4 baje he godaam me aa chuka tha aur ye jagah ab pehle si dhool-mitti wali se viprit andar se saaf suthri dikh rahi thi.
"Main salah konni de saku bhai bas itna kahunga ke zindagi me kade kade jaruri nahi ke jo paida kare woh sahi hove arr jo nuksaan kare woh galat. Mama bhi shatir hai arr taai toh khair ke kahu. Fer tera Bheem ke baare me yu sab batana toh manne bhi pareshaan kare hai yar. Tu khud soch ke main kisi chhori gail dushkarm karu toh tu ke karega? Aapni aakhyan ke syaami yu sab thodi der paache honn wala hai."
"Gollu tu kade ehsa koni kar sake aur manne bhi yaa he baat pareshan karan laag ri hai ke waa Menaka Bheem ki sagi chhoti bebe hai arr vidhwa akeli. Arjun uste pyaar kare hai ya waah us ladke ne toh baat sahi hai lekin Bheem jo karega woh toh hatya teh bhi bada apraadh se Gollu."
"Bheem ne haam konya rok sakde ya baat dhyaan rakhiye. Dusri taai khud agar yu karwaan laag ri hai toh hum toh khud-ba-khud shamil ho gye apraadh me. Waise yu khel badda hai hamari soch se. Wah teri England wali bebe bhi toh jugat bhida ri hogi kimme?"
"Haan, is sabme toh waah hai he lekin Maa ke gail milke wa Daadi Chandro ka kaam karan aali hai. Kunn karega yu toh bera bhi koni arr daadi ke kuch hoya toh Maa jo itne saal se chahve hai woh usne mil javega.", Dono kuch pal khamosh se baith gaye the ek taraf. Kuch pal shanti barkaraar rahi aur fir samne wala shutter thoda upar hua aur ye 4-5 log andar aa khade hue.
"Ke haal hai Bheem kaka? Raam-Raam choti daadi.", Sheela Devi aur uska bhimkaye beta Bheem unki taraf aa rahe the. Peeche he 3 aur aadmi the jo Bijender ki najro me he the. Teeno he sapaat-sakht chehre wale lambe chaude. Lekin yaha khade sabhi me Bheem alag he najar aa raha tha. Uska dehati lekin chauda badan Bijender se 25 he tha. Sakht chehre par lambi ghani mooche aur gale me sone ka chokor kasa tabeej kaale dhaage me piroya hua. Woh sachmuch he jaise Mahabharat se nikal kar aa khada hua tha unke samne.
"Daadi ke hove hai re? Tu mera hum-umar hai arr meri maa kaaki ki. Kaaki bulaye kar arr aade toh hal-chal badalan khatir katthe hoye ha fer araam teh haveli pe karange saari baat.", Bheem idhar udhar dekhne laga fir seedha us kamre me ghuss kar waha se lakdi ka takht kagaz ki tarah mutti me pakde is bheetar wale pakke godam me bicha kar uspe baith gaya.
"Thik baat hai.", Bijender ko gussa toh aaya lekin woh dusri taraf dekhne laga jaha woh 3 aadmi ab sath wale khulle kache hisse ki taraf chal diye the. Jaise ye jagah unki he thi.
"Teri maa koni aave ke beta?", Sheela Devi Bheem ki bagal me baithi in dono ko dekhti hui Bijender se pooch rahi thi.
"Aave hai maa bhi Kaaki. Shabnam bebe ne leke waah aade aan he wali hogi.", Bheem uski baat sunkar muskuraya aur pichle kamre se Sushila idhar he chalti hui aa khadi hui. Peeche he dupatte se mooh dhake Shabnam khadi thi. Ye gali wala rasta tha jo Bheem ko bhi abhi pata laga tha.
"Ghani lambi umar hai teri Sushila."
"Bera ni umar lambi hai ya teri jubaan kaali hai Sheela. Chaal tu andar kamre me aaja arr Bheem ke irada hai Menaka ne aade bulaan ka? 5 baj chuke hai sab nibta ke safai bhi karni padegi" Sushila ke baat par Bheem ke ek aankha halki si kaampne lagi thi.
"Kaaki, usne aade ka pata dena thik konya arr ghar pe jaa ke thaa ke lyana toh khel he kharaab kar dega."
"Matbal? Tanne kimme badlav kia hai ke?"
"Haan Kaki jaruri tha badlav karna bhi. Lekin usne khud konya bera ke waah aade apne aap aan laag ri hai.", Sushila achraj se dekhne lagi Bheem ko.
"Chandro admit hai haspataal me arr aakhiri saans leve hai. Laadli ne dekhe bina na marti aur ladli likad chuki hai sab bhool ke apni badi maa teh milan. Aade se he jaavegi.", Bheem ke chehre par kutil muskaan aa chuki thi. Aur baaki sab usko hairani se dekh rahe the siway Sheela devi ke. Bijender khoon ka ghoont pee ke reh gaya kyonki ab woh teen aadmi bhi udhar he aa khade hue the.
"Yu kis tariya ekdum se?", Sushila ab Bheem ki taraf he aa khadi hui thi aur Shabnam kapde ke peeche se he muskurati sab dekhne lagi.
"Tere sath wali lomdi se pooch kaaki, najar toh isne rakhwa raakhi thi. Main toh maa ne milwaan leke gaya tha. Fer haspataal se he Richa ne phone lagaya mahare jaaye baad Menaka dhore.", Abhi Bheem bata he raha tha ke saamne se murchit haalat me Menaka ko 2 log pakde hue andar chale aaye. Maathe par khoon beh raha tha jaha ek aadmi ne kapda rakha hua tha. Bheem furti se khada ho kar un dono ke samne aa gaya.
"Bhaan ke lode yo ke kar dia? teri maa chodu.", Ek ke gaal par kass ke jhaapad jadte he woh jameen par ja gira. Dusre ne khud he Menaka Bheem ki taraf kar di.
"Ruki koni Bheem bhai sahab toh gaadi ke sheeshe pe eent maarni padi. Apna ek aadmi toh gaadi ke neeche bhi aa gaya. Lekin ya bas behosh hui hai.", Bheem pal me he thanda ho gaya tha.
"Kisi ne dekhya arr gaadi?"
"Kise ne koni dekhya bhai ji. Koi aave he koni aade aur gaadi bahar khadi hai."
"Andar kar tawli usne. Maa le lode koi kaam sahi teh ni karde. Iske kuch hoya toh thaari maa chodd dunga.", Menaka ko phool ki tarah uthate hue usne diwan par daal dia. Bheem ki halat dekhte hue khud Sushila ne uske maathe ko saaf karte hue ghaav dekha aur takiya faad ke dher sari rooi waha laga kar safed leer se patti bandh di. Is dauraan Sheela devi aur Shabnam bhi madad kar rahi thi. Gaadi andar karte he shutter atche se band kar dia gaya tha. 10 minute baad sabkuch shaant ho chuka tha.
"Bolu thi na ke plan mat badle kar. Lekin tu kade sune hai arr Shabnam ke jarurat thi is sabki? Buddhiya maarni thi toh maar deti lekin sab eksath nahi karna tha.", Sushila jabde bheenche bolne lagi toh Bheem bhi najre jhukaye khada ho gaya.
"Mausi, main mera kaam kar rahi hu. Agar Bheem ne aise Menaka ko uthana tha toh main isko bhi nahi batati ye baat. Lekin parshan mat ho aap. Ye jagah aisi hai ke log idhar aane se katrate hai aur Bheem bhi ki koi bacha toh hai nahi. Ab aapka kaam kitna hua hai?", Shabnam par jaise koi prabhav he na pada tha Sushila ke krodh ka. Woh Bijender ko dekhne lagi toh jaise Bijender ko kuch pata he na tha.
"Dekhe ke hai be-akal. Tera kaam koni hoya. 6 bajan wale hai arr dushman ka kimme pata koni.", Sushila ke gusse ke bawjood Bijender shaant he raha.
"Taai woh Bhoora usne len gaya tha 4 baje. Lekin stadium se chhora sadhe 5 ya 6 baje likde kare hai toh thodi der me thaare samne he hoga.", Gollu ki baat sunnkar bhi Sushila ka gussa kam na hua. Lekin Menaka ki karah sunn kar ek baar fir se sabka dhyaan uski taraf ho gaya. Sheela ne jhatt se Menaka ke mooh par kapda laga dia aur Sushila ne peeche se baandhte hue awaaj band kar di. Woh uthne ki koshish karti us se pehle he peeche se dono kalai pakad kar Bheem ne hath bhi takiye ke kapde se kass kar bandh diye.
"Mooh bandhne ki jarurat nahi hai waise. Dono taraf khandhar hai aur peeche wali gali bhi viraan hai. Bypas yaha se 5 kilometer hai jaha shehar ki aakhiri chalu imarat hai.", Bijender Menaka ki aankho me jamane bhar ka dard dekh raha tha. Woh chatpata bhi nahi pa rahi thi.
"Khol dunga bebe. Sab khol dunga aur tu chaah ke bhi nahi cheekhegi.", Bheem ki aisi baat sunkar khoone sane chehre par wahi khauf ke bhaav aa gaye jaise usko ummeed thi.
.
.
"Chalta hu bhai bas bahut practice ho gai.", Idhar Arjun paseene me lathpath apna abhyaas khatam karta hua bench par baith kar glucose pee raha tha aur Balbir usko aaj rukne ke liye mana raha tha.
"Bhai 7 se 10 ka show hai. Chal na yar, Suman jabhi chalegi agar Manju sath jayegi toh."
"Toh bhai Manju ko le jao yar. Lekin mere ghar aaj koi nahi hai toh jana jaruri hai. Taaiji akeli hongi.", Arjun fir kapde badalne andar chal dia aur Balbir bhi. Kuch samay baad he dono saaf kapdo me patri par chalte hue stand ki taraf jaa rahe the.
"Arjun, suno jara.", Manju ne pas aate hue kaha toh Balbir thoda peeche ho gaya.
"Mere sath chalo, jaruri baat hai.", Is baar woh thodi dhimi awaaj me Arjun ka hath pakad kar aage le jane lagi.
"Chalte hai pareshan kyu ho rahi ho.?", Arjun ne araam se jawab dia aur Balbir ko jaane ka ishara karta woh motorcycle nikal kar Manju ko peeche baithne ko bola. Abhi dono stadium se nikal kar pehle chowk par he aaye the ki ye tagda pehalwan Arjun ke hath me kagaj pakdata ek taraf ja kar khada ho gaya.
'Chupchap gaadi me baith. Menaka', Arjun ne stand lagate hue wahi motorcycle khadi kar di. Apna bag Manju ko deta woh hontho par ungli rakhne ke baad us ladke ke barabar khadi kaale sheeshe wali zen car ki taraf badh gaya. Manju ke chehre par ek darr saaf jhalak raha tha. Lekin gaadi ko jaate dekh woh bas number padh saki. Arjun ko usne agaah bhi kia tha ke Menaka ke sath uski bhi jaan khatre me hai lekin woh fir bhi uski baat maan-ne ki bajaye manmani karta raha. Ab aafat aa he chuki thi.
'Beep-Beep' ki is dheemi awaaj ko sunte he Manju hosh me aai. Woh abhi bhi motorcycle ke pas he jami hui khadi thi lekin bag ke andar se aai is awaaj ne uska dhyaan bhang kia. Turant chain kholti woh upar wali jeb dekhne lagi. Yaha ek kagaz aur ye chota sa yantra tha calculator jaisi screen wala. 'Is number par phone karo.' Motorala likha ye kala sa yantra ek sandesh dikha raha tha aur Manju ne woh kagaj dekha toh waha bhi ek aur number likha tha jiske neeche Arjun ka sandesh tha.
'Pareshan mat hona aur is par phone karke bata do Arjun nikal gaya hai. Stadium ke guard room se phone karke Tum ghar chali jana. Love you.", Manju bhochakki reh gai ye padhte he. Matlab Arjun pehle se tayaar tha aur woh khud he Manju ko dur rakhe the.
"Aap phone kar lijiye. Motorcycle main pahucha dunga.', Ye 6 feet ka safed kameej aur neeli patloon me khada vyakti Manju ke liye kisi jinn ki tarah tha. Jaane kaha se ekdum aaya aur Arjun ki motorcycle lekar university ki taraf chala gaya. Manju bhagti hui stadium ki taraf udd chali.
.
.
Hath bandh do lekin aankhen kyu band kar rahe ho bhai? Main itni sharafat se toh sath chal raha hu tumhare.", Arjun ke dono hath nylon ki dori se bandhne ke baad uski agal bagal baithe pehalwano ne bina kuch jawaab diye safed kapda aankho par bandh dia.
"Atchi baat hai.", Arjun muskurata hua araam se peeth seat par tikata baith gaya. Woh dono pehalwan thoda hairaan the ki yaha woh apharan karke le ja rahe hai aur ye ladka unhi par muskura raha hai.
"Bhoore, iska ke chakkar hai?"
"Bhai Sushila tai ne iska kaam karna hai. Main toh jaanu hu ke ladka shareef hai par ke kar saka ha.?", Ye gaadi chalata hua pehalwan jaise hamdardi jata raha tha Arjun ke sath.
"Waise bhaiya aap thode din pehle apne dost ke sath mujhe he dekhne toh aaye the stadium. Woh majra alag tha na.?", Arjun ki baat sunn kar ek pal ko woh chup raha fir bola.
"Galatfehmi ho gai thi chhote bhai. Najar maarne aaye the ke woh ladka kaun hai jisne Bijender bhai par hath uthaya tha.", Bhoora desi bhasha ki jagah saral hindi me jawab dene laga.
"Galatfehmi nahi thi aapki. Main he tha jisne Bijender pehalwan par hath uthaya tha jab woh Vikas bhai se ladne aaye the.", Arjun ke is khulase se charo ek pal usko dekhne lage fir Bhoore ne najar sadak par kar di. Halka ubad-khabadd rasta tha ye bypass shuru hone par.
"Maut intjaar kar rahi hai aur tu yaha deenge haak raha hai. Bijender beech se cheer ke rakh dega tujhe lekin woh nahi maarne wala. Par aur bahot log hai aisi itcha liye waha.", Arjun khamosh ho gaya tha ab. Jaise uska dhyaan mahol ko samajhne me rum chuka ho. Baaki sab bhi aage kuch nahi bole. Ye chhoti si gaadi andar se jaandar he thi. Aur jald he woh palbhar ke liye ruki. Aage se bayi taraf ka darwaja khulne aur band hone ki awaaj ke baad 30 second baad he thoda aage chalti fir band ho gai.
"Nikalo re bahar isne. Apna kaam khatam toh aade rukne ka koi fayeda nahi.", Lekin Bhoore ki baat khatam hui he thi ki usko ek taraf dhakelta hua Bheem aage badha aur Arjun ki gardan pakad kar usko jameen par gira dia.
"Koi kahi na ja raha jitne kaam khatam na ho jata. Is behanchod ki chaati main sabke saamne paadunga.", Arjun aankho par bandhi patti ke sath he uthne laga tha ke peeth par ek tej praaha kia Bheem ne aur ek baar fir woh jameen par ja laga.
"Bheem, yu mera arr iska mamla hai. Tu baad me dekhiye.", Bijender dono ke beech aa khada hua tha. Bheem ek baar usko apni aag ugalti aankho se dekhne laga fir Sushila ko. Bijender ne Arjun ki aankho se patti kholi he thi ki Sushila bhi idhar chali aai.
Arjun ke honth aur maathe se halka khoon aa raha tha. Uska chehra upar karti woh gusse se Arjun ko dekh rahi thi.
"Bijender main toh kahu su ke Bheem ne he yu khatam karan de. Tu ek taraf ho ja."
"Na maa. Shankar arr mere baap me bhi mukabla hoya tha arr aaj main bhi iske khoon ki garmi dekhna chahu hu. Baad me Bheem jo marji kare iske sath lekin mauka jarur dunga isne main.", Bijender apni baat keh raha tha udhar Arjun se 40 feet dur Menaka ke gale pe chaaku rakhe Sheela devi khadi thi. Arjun ke hath khulne ke bawjood bandhe hue the.
"Bebe, agar tu meri baat maan leti toh main is sab me naa padta. Khair tu dagabaj ho gai toh ke baat lekin main pehle isne maarunga fer iski lash ke bagal me tere se pyaar gail apna naya rishta banaunga. Aashiq hai na tera yu? Bhai me ke kami thi jo yu pasand kia.", Bheem chalta hua Menaka ke peeche aa khada hua aur Sheela devi ek taraf ho gai. Gardan par chaaku ab Bheem rakhe hue tha. Menaka ki mooh par bandhi patti hatate hue woh hans raha tha.
"Arjun.. mujhe maaf karrr do.. Bhaiya aapne jo karna hai mere sath kar lijiye. Main sath jaane ko tayaar hu hamesha ke liye. Please isko jaane dijiye.", Sheela devi na ek karara jhaapad Menaka ke mooh par jadd dia uski baat sunte he.
"Haraamjadi mahina na hoya vidhwa hoye aur yaar banaye baithi hai. Itni khaaj thi toh manne kehti tere pe yu saand main khud chadhwa deti. Yu Rameshwar ka pilla pasand aaya tanne.", Menaka ke honth se khoon ki bund thoddi tak aane lagi thi aur Arjun ke chehre par halka sa dard ubhar aaya. Woh jameen par ghutne tikaye khamosh sa aankho ko band kiye baitha raha.
"Dekh jara Shankar ka nakli khoon. Yu pasand aaya tha jo na muaqabla karan ne tayaar laage hai arr na teri khatir ek lafz likdya iske mooh se.", Sushila jaane kis baat par bhadak uthi thi jo ek taraf rakha dedh inchi ka lohe ka pipe Arjun ke sar par maarti uske saamne thook kar aage badh gai. Sar is chott se kuch pal ke liye jameen par tika lekin tapakte khoon ke sath he woh fir se chehra saamne karte hue unhe dekhne laga. Pipe jaise utna majboot na tha ya Arjun ka sar patthar hoga. Khoon toh nikla tha lekin koi bada ghaav jaise kuch na hua.
"Jab sab thakk jao toh bata dena.", Arjun ne Menaka ke subakte hue chehre ko dekhte hue bas itna he kaha.
"Poore 5 minute hai tere pas. Ya tu manne maar de Arjun ya main tera haal kharaab kar dunga. Baad me tera toh nishchit hai marna.", Bijender uko khada karne ke liye baaju pakad kar upar utha raha tha lekin jaise sharir me jaan na thi ya Arjun achanak se chattan bann gaya. Arjun ne is pal me Bijender ko jaise dekha woh pehle thoda jhemp sa gaya fir Arjun ki aankon me jalalat dekhte he uski chaati me ghutna maarta hua cheekhne laga.
"Tu ghana akde hai? Main sochu tha ke tu samajh dar hoga lekin tu marna he chahve hai." Jameen par gire Arjun ko ghaseet kar woh godaam aur is farsh ke beech wale mitti ke hisse tak ghaseet laya.
"Sushila bua, khush toh bahut hongi aap. Apne bete ke sath vishwasghat kar sakti ho toh baaki jitne yaha hai unki bhi bali chadhane ka prabandh karke aai hogi.?" Arjun apne hontho par aaya khoon mitti me thookta hua Sushila ko dekhne laga. Arjun ki aisi muskaan dekh kar Sushila ka rang udd gaya tha.
"Ke ke bake hai tu? Maut sar pe khadi hai aur bhashan deve hai manne. Koi bua na lagti main teri."
"Babita aur Bijender ka rishta toh kabhi hone nahi wala, ye moorakh aulaad waise he mere sath mehnat kar raha hai. Aur jo khud ladki ke gardan par chaaku lagaye khada hai woh khud ko Bheem samajhta hai. Thooo hai aise namardo par.", Arjun jameen se uth khada hua tha aur kapde jhaadta Bijender ko ghoorne laga.
"Maa yo kis tarah jaane hai ya baat? Arr yu tanne bua kehke bulave hai matlab jhooth toh koni bole hai.", Bijender ki baat khatam hui aur udhar se Bheem saand ki tarah dahadta Arjun par lapka. Menaka ki gardan par koi chaku na tha kyonki Bheem Arjun par us se he prahaar karne laga tha.
'Dhaddaammm", Jis raftaar se Bheem uski taraf aaya tha us se doguni raftar ke sath woh zen ka sheesha todta hua uske andar ja fansa. Arjun ki kalai ke upar ye 2 inch lamba ghaav jarur bann gaya tha lekin koi parwah na thi. Baaki sabka jaise halak sookh chuka tha Bheem ki halat dekh kar. Aanan fanan me Sheela devi ne ye dusra chaaku Menaka ki gardan par kass dia tha. Halka khoon bahar challak aaya tha waha se. Arjun ek baar fir se asahaye ho gaya tha. Jo 3 aadmi Bheem ke sath aaye the ab apna dum dikhate woh rooi ki tarah Arjun par laat-ghunse barsate pil pade. Bijender apni maa ko dekh raha tha jo muskura rahi thi aur Menaka ka behta khoon dekh jameen par gire maar khate Arjun ka uske prati pyaar.
"Behanchodd dur hatto. Gollu maar in kameen loga ne.", Bijender jhotte ki tarah un teeno se bhidd gaya tha. Aur uski awaaj sunn kar itni der se sar jhukaye khada Gollu bhi apne dost ki raah par chal dia. Bhoora aur uske dost aage aaye aur idhar ek ke baad ek 6 goliyan us rivolver se chhoot gai. Shabnam ke hath me dhuaa choddti khali rivolver thi aur idhar jameen par Bhoora, Gollu, Bheem ka ek aadmi aur Bijender ka woh pehalwan dost jo Arjun ko leke aaya tha gire pade the. Shabnam koi nishanchi na thi lekin 6 goliyon me 4 log usne gira diye the. Mahol poora badal chuka tha. Shabnam abhi bhi trigger daba rahi thi is ummeed se ki kahi se koi aur goli chale aur nishane par aaya Arjun bhi apne anjaam tak pahuch jaaye.
"Shabnam didi. Ye kaam aapne aate he kyo nahi kar dia tha? Ye sab bewajah maare na jaate.", Arjun me uthne ki taqat na thi lekin woh gardar uthata hua Shabnam ko jaise jaleel kar raha tha.
"Minde, apni rivoler likad ke le aa. Saale saare maarne hai ye. Koi bachke na ja sake.", Bheem jaise taise bahar nikal kar gaadi pakde khada tha. Apne ek aadmi se usne pehle he rivolver plot wale hisse me rakhwai thi ye soch kar ki agar koi bahar aaye toh chatt se he tapka dena. Woh aadmi bhi furti se us aur bhaga. Bijender jameen par gire apne dono dosto ka sar thaame baitha tha. Gollu ki saansein chal rahi thi kyonki goli peit me thi lekin Bhoora shant ho chuka tha. Ek goli seene me aur dusri uske dil ke thik upar lagi thi. Pakka farsh khoon se aise bhara tha jaise balti bhar ke waha udel dia gaya ho.
Agla drishya ekdum alag tha jaha Bheem ka madadgar jameen par rigadta hua andar aa raha tha aur uske aage sadhe 6 feet ka ye daadhi wala 45-50 ke kareeb ka yamraj sa aadmi jisne Minde ki taang pakad rakhi thi.
"Mahol toh jyada kharaab kar dia tumne Sushila. Aur Sheela woh chaku hata lo nahi toh sooni maang tumhare he khoon se bharne me mujhe kasht nahi hoga.", Sheela aur Sushila ke paseene chhoot gaye the apne saamne is pahaad ko khade dekh kar. Bheem ke dono aadmio ke chehre par sateek goli marte hue usne apni baat pukhta kar di thi ki woh Shabnam ki tarah koi kacha nishanchi na tha. Sheela ek taraf khadi hui aur Shabnam ne is taraf se woh lohe ka pipe poori jaane se is vyakti ke sar par maarne ka upkrarm kia.
"Jaanti mujhe toh ye cheshta nahi karti ladki. Ye tinke Umed Singh se takra kar mudd sakte hai lekin hame kharoch bhi nahi de sakte.", Shabnam ko uske haal par chhodta Umed Singh sher si chaal chalta bade araam se Bijender ke sar par aa khada hua.
"Beta bahar gaadi khadi hai aur driver bhi. Isko hospital le jao ye zinda hai.", Bijender ke aansuo se geele chehre par bade pyaar se hath ferte hue Umed Singh ne jaise usko himmat di aur baaki dono dost bhi teji se lapke. Aanan fanan me shutter kholte woh Gollu ko uthaye bahar nikal liye.
"Toh Bheem Singh, baaj nahi aate na tum. Halat toh tumhari bhi thik nahi hai lagta hai kisi naye shikari se takra gaye is baar.", Pehli baar chehre par muskaan aai thi Umed Singh ke aur woh apna bhoora ray-ban utarte hue Bheem ka chehra pakad kar aise dekhne lage jaise doctor mareej ka nirikshan kar raha ho.
"Arjun, Menaka ko khol do aur in teeno ko bandh do. Chalo fir kaam dhanda karte hai, bahot samay kharaab ho gaya.", Umed Singh ne us chasme me he pratibimb dekha tha Shabnam ko jo bhagna chahti thi lekin awaaj aur rivolver apni taraf dekh kar wahi rukk gai. Arjun halka sa ladkhadata hua Menaka ki aur badha. Rassi kholte he woh uske gale lag chuki thi. Aur yahi Umed Singh se galti ho gai jo woh bahar se aate in 5 badmasho ka na dekh saka lekin furti se ek taraf hota woh unki goli se jarur bach gaya tha. Lekin Sheela devi itni khushkismat na thi. Gale ko cheerti woh goli bahot thi uska sharir jameen par girane ke liye.
Narsingh ke pas pistol thi aur baaki 4 ke hath me ek talwar aur 3 lohe ki rod. Aur apni goli ka galat nishana dekh kar woh bhi gaadi ke dusri taraf chippe Umed par 12-14 feet se goli barsane laga. Udhar se bhi 4 goliyan chali jisme 2 log maare gaye, ek toh wahi tha jisko Sushila chahiye thi. Narsingh ki bandook se bhi aakhiri goli Umed ke panv me ja ghusi thi.
"Bach na sakta aaj tu Umed. Goli teri bhi khatam arr meri bhi lekin tu akela hai aur hum 4.", Narsingh ne Bheem ko bhi sahara dete hue utha lia tha. Kaala Umed ki taraf badha kyonki sharir se wahi tha jo Umed se takra sakta tha, Bheem ki halat durust hoti toh shaayad woh bhi aisi himakar kar sakta tha. Lekin un charon ka dhyaan apni taraf badhti maut par na gaya jo teeno mahilao ko kamre me band karne ke baad unki taraf aa raha tha.
"Umed tum jaise 4-5 par neend me bhi bhari padega hijde. Narsingh naam rakhne se tu sher nahi bann ne wala.", Kaale ki talwar ka war bachate hue Umed ne uski kalai pakad li thi lekin hawa me goonji is cheekh ko sunn kar sabhi idhar he dekhne lage.
"Waar samne se karte hai Bheem, peeche se geedad he jhoothan churane aate hai.", Arjun ne Umed ki taraf lohe ki rod liye badh rahe Bheem Singh ko kamar se pakad kar us gaadi ke bonutt par aise de mara tha ke Bheem ki cheekh me gaadi ka tootna bhi sunai na dia tha. Bache hue sheeshe bhi mitti ki tarah har taraf bikhar gaye the aur Bheem kate vriksh sa aadha bonnut par aur aadha gaadi ki chatt faade uske bheetar. Sharir kuch hilne ke baad shant ho gaya tha lekin ab Narsingh ki kalai Arjun ke hath me thi. Udhar Umed bhi kuch josh me Kaale ki talwar uski he chaati ke bheetar daal chuka tha.
2 aur goliya chali jiske sath he Narsingh jameen par gir gaya bina Arjun ki maar khaye aur aakhiri wala bhagne se pehle he jameen soongh raha tha.
"Chote pandit, hamesha deri se he aati hai police. Khair tum aaye toh ab sambhalo ye sab. Main nikalta hu.", Sanjiv bhaiya gambhir chehre se Arjun ko dekh rahe the, jo muskura raha tha. Umed Singh Sanjiv ko aankh dikhate hue Arjun ke seene se lagte hue bas itna he bole, "Naaj hai tujhpe. Message deri se mila uske liye sorry, woh chunaav bhi aa rahe hai na."
"Chacha, phone karta hu subah.", Arjun ne bhi sankshipt sa jawaab dia aur woh andhere me bahar nikal gaye.
"Ye sab mujhe Manju ke phone se pata chala. Aur dadaji se tera pager number. Itni badi vardaat tu akele karne nikal aaya?", Gusse me unhone Bheem ke chehre me 2 goliyan utaar di thi.
"Jeb dekh lia karo jara apni. Gaadi me baithne se pehle maine kagaj dala tha. Secret service wale undercover.", Arjun unke gale lagte hue hansne laga. Sanjiv bhaiya bi apne chhote bhai ki hansi par shaant ho gaye the.
"Baaki sab kaha hai?"
"Udhar band kia hua hai hath bandh ke.", Unke sath he woh Sushila aur Shabnam ke pas aa gaya jo jameen par baithi thi, haath peeche se bandhe the unke. Aur ek taraf khadi Menaka ke gale par Arjun ka rumaal bandha tha.
"Chal tu Menaka ko le kar nikal main inhe jara sasural ke darshan karwata hu. Waise toh irada kuch aur hai lekin kanoon ki hadd me rehna jyada sahi rahega. Ghar pe ye undercover wali baat."
"Haan nahi kehta main kuch bhi lekin apne chhote bhai se mat chupaya karo itna sab. Rivolver rakhni nahi aati aapko abhi tak."
"Tera pager hai kaha? Aur ye itna advanced pager tere pas?", Sanjiv bhaiya Sushila ke peeth par rivolver lagaye chal rahe the aur Shabnam bhi sehmi hui sath he thi.
"Mere pas bahot kuch hai lekin manahi hai. Pager Umed chacha ke kehne par ek policewala kal deke gaya tha aur dadaji ko pata tha. Isliye sab gharwale bahar hain.", Arjun ne ye jor ka jhatka dia tha Sanjiv bhaiya ko.
"Wo is sab ke baare me jaante hai? Aur unhone tujhe ijajat di is sabki? Bina soche ki tu itna chhota hai aur yaha jaan ja sakti thi.", Sanjiv thoda sakte me tha.
"Yaha aur bhi log hai bhaiya. Dusri baat unhe ye pata hai ke Umed chacha sab kar rahe hai, main toh sirf chhota sa pyada hu. Samjh lo khabri jaisa. Idhar toh main aaya he nahi hu. Aap unse bhi yahi kahenge.", Arjun ne bahar khadi jeep ko dekha toh thoda sochne laga. Fir shutter ke pas khadi bullet dekh kar woh uski taraf badha. Ye Bijender ki thi aur chabi usme he lagi thi.
"Kisi ko main kuch nahi kehne wala lekin tujhse bahot sawaal hai mere. Manju agar phone na karti toh yaha gadbad ho jaani thi aaj.", Sanjiv bhaiya ne dono mahilao ko jeep ke piche baithane ke baad seat ke sath he ek ek hath unke hathkadi se bandh diye the.
"Manju na karti toh bhi aapke pas phone aata. Waise pager dekh lijiye message jarur hoga poore 6 baje.", Arjun ne Menaka ko apne peeche bithaya aur Sanjiv bhaiya apne pager ki hari light me woh sandesh padhne lage.
"Hmm. Toh tujhe mera pager number bhi pata hai?"
"Aap aage chalo main araam se aata hu. Sawaal mere bhi bahot hai lekin fir kabhi baat karenge jab aapka dil ho jeera-lemon pilane ka. Abhi mujhe kuch kaam hai." , Arjun ne kick lagate hue woh bullet start ki aur bhaiya gaadi me baith ne ke sath he wireless par koi sandesh dene lage. Aaj pehli bar woh apna parichaya de rahe the. IPS Sajiv Sharma. Lal batti wali woh jeep unse aage chalne lagi thi aur Arjun dheemi raftar se ye alag tarike ki bullet chalata thandi hawa ka lutf lene laga.
"Aaj tumne mujhe khareed lia Arjun. Beshak tum mujhe fir kabhi mat dekhna lekin main tumhe bachana he chahti thi.", Menaka uski kamar me hath daale bhavuk ho gai thi aur pachtava bhi tha ke itna sabkuch ho gaya.
"Ye aise waqt par bhi rone ki wajah samajh nahi aa rahi. Tum mere sath ho, dono zinda aur salamat. Hamare pyaar ki wajah se dekho aaj Bheem Singh bhi nahi rahe aur tumhari maa bhi. Dekha jaye toh tumhe mujhse nafrat karni chahiye kyonki meri wajah se pariwar khatam ho gaya tumhara.", Arjun sapaat lehje me keh raha tha. Lekin Menaka jor se uski peeth se lipat gai.
"Aaj maine dekha tha tumhari aankho me. Tum apni jaan bhi dene ko tayaar the. Kaise kar sakte ho itna pyaar woh bhi aisi aurat se jo shayad tumhari dushman he thi ek tarah se.", Arjun kuch jawaab deta us se pehle he 'bhadaaakk.. chhrrrrrrrrrrr' ka ye dhamaka vatavaran ko hila gaya. Unse 500 meter dur chal rahi bhaiya ki jeep is bypass wale modd se viprit disha me uchalti hui sadak se pare ghane vriksho me ja lagi. Dhamake ki garzana aisi thi ki ek pal ke liye bullet bhi aniyantrit ho gai lekin Arjun badhavaas sa khud he motorcycle neeche girata us taraf bhaagne laga. Sthiti har tarah se bekabu ho chuki thi. Us canter se utar kar 3 log jeep ki taraf bhadd rahe the jab tak Arjun waha pahuchta ek aadmi ne driver ke bheje me goli utaar di thi. Dusra peeche wale hisse ki taraf jata khali kanasatar se jaise paani chidakne laga tha.
"Sanjiv kade gira hai re? Usne zinda nahi chhodna.", Woh aadmi aage kuch kehta us se pehle he 2 goliya uske seene me aa lagi udhar jhaadio se. Baaki dono bhi udhar he lapke lekin koi aur goli chalti us se pehle he Arjun dono ko liye andhere me kood gaya.
"kaddaakk" ki tej awaaj aur jungle is aadmi ki cheekh se goonj utha. Arjun ne reedh ka jodd he todd dia tha. Dusra sambhalta us se pehle he uska sharir jeep par jaa gira.
"Bhaiya-Bhaiya..", Arjun pukarta hua aage badh raha tha aur samne se karahta hua Sanjiv pasliya dabaye dusre hath me pistol ke sath rigadata hua aa raha tha. Arjun ne furti se unhe apne kandhe par dala aur sadak ki taraf badhne laga. Andhere me dono bhaio ke chehre-sar se khoon behta jameen geeli kar raha tha. Ye majboot sa hath Arjun ke paanv par kasa toh woh jaise neeche baithne laga, lekin fir khud he mutthi khul gai thi.
"Mohar Singh.. Mohar Singh hai ye. Arjun aise hum nahi ja payenge bhai.. Tu jeep dekh, maine wireless kia hua hai. Unhe bata iske baare me.", Idhar Menaka bhi aa khadi hui thi. Kuch aur na soojha toh apne sar par bandhi patti aur gale ka rumaal woh Sanjiv bhaiya ke sar par dabati hui unka khoon rokne lagi. Kismat itni bhi bereham na thi aaj. Arjun ki aankhon me aansu dekh shayad bhagwan bhi taras kha gaya tha. Laal batti ki jeep aur badi van modd se idhar aati dikhi. Arjun apne bhaiya ko kandhe pe liye thik sadak ke beech khada hota unke samne aa gaya.
"Inhe jaldi hospital leke chalo. Aur udhar jeep me dekho ke koi zinda hai kya.", Arjun ki baat sunn kar bhaiya dard me bhi muskurane lage.
"Ye apna kaam kar lenge. Idhar Lucky hai mere sath. Tu yaha se nikal aur jubaan band rakhna. Main jald milta hu tujhse.", Lucky bhi Sanjiv ki halat dekh ghabra gaya tha lekin dusri gaadi walo ko nirdesh deta woh jeep liye shehar ki taraf nikal chala. Jeep me Sushila aur Shabnam shayad behosh ho gai thi jinhe ye 4 policewale gadi me daalne ke baad baaki 3 adhmare aur mrit vyaktio aur driver ki lash ko bhi van me lita kar wapis nikal gaye. Ghatnasthal par ek hawaldar chhodd kar.
"Bhai, jara waha se meri motorcycle la do ge?", Arjun ne kamar par hath rakhte hue us policewale se kaha aur woh bina kuch kahe andhere me us taraf chal dia. Arjun ki soch se kahi jyada he bada mamla ho gaya tha ye. Aaj ek pal ke liye woh jaise apne bhaiya ko kho he chuka tha. Aisa ho jata toh shayad Arjun zindagi bhar ye iljaam apne dil par liye rehta. Jaise taise woh khamosh sa Menaka ko liye uske ghar aa gaya. Agle 10 minute me woh bister par leta tha Manju ke kamre me jaha ye doctor sahab uske har ghaav par marham lagane ke baad neend ka injection de kar chale gaye the. Kuch aisa he dusre kamre me Menaka ke sath hua tha.
"Iska dhyaan rakhna bitiya. Aur hosh me aane par keh dena ke Rameshwar Sharma ke sawaal iska intjaar kar rahe hai. Ye masoom pyada meri gair-maujdgi me vajir bann baitha.", Ye Pandit ji he the jinke sath Tejpal Sharma chupchap khade the.
"Koi ghabrane wali baat toh nahi hai na dadaji?", Manju ki aankhon me aansu dekh kar woh muskura diye.
"Ye mera abhimaan hai bitiya, kabhi kuch nahi ho sakta isko. Lekin nasamjh hai thoda jyada hoshiyaar pata nahi. Ghaav chhote motte hai 1-2 din me toh dikhne wale bhi nahi. Chalo aaj bitiya tumhare hath ki chai pila do ab aa he gaya hu toh fir kya 10 minute aur kya ghanta.", Rameshwar ji Manju ko sar sehlate hue bahar sofe par aa baithe.
"Toh Bittu mia, dekh lia najara?"
"Pandit ji, ye pagalpan he tha. Sanjiv mara jata agar ye na hota toh. Umed ke bhi paanv me goli lagi hai. Lekin ye kaise pahuch gaya udhar?"
"Policewale ka khoon toh kahi na kahi sabme he hai is ghar me. Isne kaha tha ke ye Umed ki madad karega, guru hai na woh iska. Lekin Umed bhi jaise iska gulam ho gaya hai. Baaki sab toh jaanch ke baad pata lagega. Kaha khaad me mitti dene ki baat kahi thi aur ye sab saaf kar aaya.", Rameshwar ji ki muskaan rehasya se bhari thi.
"Chandro Devi ki halat bhi sthir hai ab. Doctor keh rahe the ki khatre se bahar hai. Bheem-Sheela devi ne 3 aur logo ki madad se Sushila ke pariwar par hamla kia jisme Mohar Singh ke sath 12 aur log maare gaye hai apradhiyo ko mila kar.", Jaise Tejpal mama ne khakha tayaar kia ho report banane se pehle.
"Hmmm.. 12 ki jagah 13 kar do Tejpal. Ek ko humne khud ajaad kar dia. Bhabhi ji se main parso mil lunga aur Sushila ko kehna ki Rameshwar aaj bhi unka bhala he sochta hai beshak uski wajah se mere bete ki khushiya maine khatam kar di lekin usko ba-ijjat bari kar dia gaya hai. Bijender se vyaktigat mulakaat main parso kar lunga. Haan Shabnam ko apni nigrani me rakhna, Shankar karega baat aane par.", Idhar Manju chai rakhne ke baad Menaka ke kamre me chali gai.
"Ji. Order aur file toh aap bhijwa he denge. Waise abhi aap yahi rukne wale hai?"
"Barkhurdar tumhare pita ji ne aaj dawat rakhi hai toh hum yaha kya karenge. 8:00 baje hai toh 45 minute me toh tum mujhe ghar utaar he doge.", Tejpal ji ke chehre par bhi hansi aa gai.
"Waise sach kahu toh Arjun ko dekh kar garv hota hai."
"Haan bhanja jab mama ki gardan pakadne lage toh garv hoga he. Hahaha.. Waise sach baat hai. Main isko in sabse dur rakhna chahta hu lekin chah kar bhi rakh na paunga.", Rameshwar ji kamre me nigaah marte hue Arjun ko dekhne lage.
"Ab chintit hone ki wajah he nahi hai uncle. Sab saaf toh kar he dia hai Sanjiv aur Umed ne milkar. Jo bache hai woh dost rahenge ya shubhchintak."
"Iske sath ek samasya hai beta. Kaam na mile toh ye khud he dhoond leta hai. Abhi toh chalo jo hua so hua. Aur main bhi koshish karunga ke iski shiksha thodi jyada badha du, mere liye he atcha rahega. Chalo bhai ab chalte hi. Beti ke ghar ki chai pee li bahot atcha laga.", Rameshwar ji uthne ke baad fir se Arjun ko dekh kar Manju ko bhi aashirwad dete hue bahar nikal chale.
.

Bijender ICU ke bahar baitha tha apne ek dost ke sath. Aaj usne ek dost kho dia tha aur dusra shayad kho he deta agar Umed kaka uski samay rehte madad na karte. Aankhe abhi tak bheegi thi. Sabse ajeeb baat ye hui thi ki is haspataal me he uski maa aur chacheri behan ko bhi laya gaya tha lekin woh batane ke bawjood waha se hila nahi.
"Ji, aapke kapde aur khana laai hu.", Anupama pehli baar bahar yu uske saamne aai thi. Beshak Babita he usko leke aai thi lekin Babita alag emergency ward me apni maa ke pas chali gai thi. Ek pal toh Bijender khamosh baitha raha, shunya me dekhte hue lekin fir uski kamar par mooh rakhte hue woh fafak kar ro pada. Yaha bas 3 he log the lekin uska dost bahar chala gaya tha halat dekh kar.
"Aapne kabhi kuch galat nahi kia lekin kahi na kahi chook hui hai. Hum mil kar sudhar sakte hai sabkuch. Balwaan (Bhoora) bhai ke jaane ka mujhe bhi dukh hai lekin Gollu bhaiya khatre se bahar. Haunsla rakhiye aap. Chaliye kapde badal lijiye itne main yaha dekhti hu.", Anupama ki saaf aur dil se kahi baat sunkar Bijender khada ho kar uske gale lag gaya. Woh bahot kuch kehna chahta tha lekin aaj jaise shabd nahi foot rahe the.
"Hum nai shuruwaat kar sakte hai. Kal papa ko mukhagni deni hai aapko aur uske baad jimmewari sambhalni padegi sari.", Bijender ne chehre se chehra lagate hue sirf haami bhari aur kapde le kar chala gaya. Police ne is maamle me inme se kisi se poochtach toh nahi ki thi lekin apni tayaar report par hastakshar karwa liye the. Shabnam ko sandigdh ki shreni me rakha gaya tha aur uska ilaaj bhi police nigrani me he ho raha tha.
"Dekh maa, ke ho gaya poore pariwar gail. Tanne sabke syaami yo keha tha ne ke meri chhori itne byaah ni karegi jitne Shankar ke pariwar sath badla na le lia jaye. Manne sirf teri haa me haa milai thi. Lekin aaj Shankar ke pariwar ne poora ghar khatam karne ki jagah tanne ba-ijjat bari arr us harami maame ki maut bhi badle ki bhavna se ki hatya likh di. Woh chhora sabne maar sake tha lekin usne ek ki jaan bhi konya li. Eb tere dhore bahot tame hai sochan ka. Yu taang toot chuki hai, kalai ki haddi bhi arr sarr pe 6 taanke aaye hai. Hafta aathe he reh, main halchal leti rahungi tera.", Babita ne aage kuch na kehte hue apni maa ko daal ka paani bade pyaar se pilaya jo Sushila peena nahi chahti thi. Aankhe uski bhi bhari thi aur sab khone ke baad ehsaas hua tha ke woh kitni kharaab bahu, biwi, maa aur behan thi. Lekin fir samne se Bijender ko aate dekh mooh fer lia. Aaj himmat na thi apne bete ki aankhon ka samna karne ka.
"Ae maa, tu tawli thik ho jya. 13 din baad tere chhore ka arr chhori ka byaah hai.", Bijender gol stool par baithta apni maa ke gaal par hath rakhte hue bola toh Babita hairani se usko dekhne lagi.
"Bebe tu tension na le. Gollu gail tera ar Anupama gail mera byaah hovega. Gollu ne hosh aaya toh manne bataya ke main Anupama ne pasand karu hu. Woh bawla toh Arjun dhore kaal stadium he chala gaya tha yu kehan ke Bijender ne woh kuch na kare arr woh yu sab apne pyaar khatir karan laag reha hai. Fer bera chalya ke thamm donu pasand karo ho ek dusre ne. Chaal ma tu araam kar, main tadke aaunga milan. Gollu ke maa-baap ho sake hai ke hal-chal len upar aave. Main Anupama ne chhod ke aau ghar. Tu dhyaan rakhiye bebe apna. Jo galti hui uske khatir chotte bhai ne maaf kar diye.", Jaane se pehle woh apni maa aur behan se gale lag ke mila.
"Dekh le iska dil. Yu hai sacha arr pariwar ki hifajat karan wala. Khair tere neend ki sui de rakhi hai toh tu araam kar. Mai is bistre pe sou hu.", Babita ne bhi maa ke chehre par hath ferte hue kaha aur fir khali bister par leit gai.
Sushila soch rahi thi ki agar aaj yahi ladai Shankar ke sath hui hoti toh ek baar fir sab khatam ho jata lekin waha Arjun tha. Jo marne ko tayaar tha aur sabko bachane ke liye bhi.
"Beti, ek baar bas Arjun ne sandesh bhijwa diye ke uski bua milna chahve hai us se. Shankar toh kade koni aave lekin woh chhora bhala hai.", Sushila ne itna kaha aur aankhe band kar li. Wahi Babita muskura uthi apni maa ki baat sunkar.
.
.
Raat 12 baje Arjun jhatke se uth khada hua. Paseene se bheega jism aur uttejjana se woh bechain sa tha lekin fir achanak he woh wapis bister par ludhak gaya.
Update 97
Kalyug ka Chakravyuh
"Mujhe tumse baat karni hai. Kya hum thodi der akele me baat kar sakte hai Arjun?", Dopahar ka khana khatam karte he Arjun uthne laga tha. Samne baithi Manju ne jhooth bol dia tha ke woh ghar se he khaa ke aai. Idhar Aarti ne bhi khaane ke baad rasoi sambhal li thi. Bartan, chulhe ki safaai aur Lalita ji apne kamre me chali gai thi, kyonki woh hamesha wahi khana khati thi.
"Tum sath he chalne wali ho stadium toh hum waha baat kar lenge Manju. Abhi sharir thoda thaka hua hai aur agar araam nahi kia toh shaam ki practice prabhavit hogi.", Arjun ne halki si muskaan dete hue Manju ko jawaab dia aur fir apne dada ji ke kamre me aa kar leit gaya. Manju ab thodi aur pareshan ho gai thi lekin woh jaahir na karte hue Aarti ke he pas chali gai. Arjun hath ke neeche takiya dabaye leit chuka tha.
.
.
3 baj rahe the aur aamtaur par garmiyo ke shuruwaat bhi pradesh me thodi tej he rehti thi is waqt. Log-bag aise samay gaanv-dehat me ghar me andar rehte hai ya khet me peid ke neeche araam karte hai. Lekin swargiya Rammehar ke yaha iske viprit mahol tha. Sushila ne Mohar Singh ko kuch jaruri kaam se agle shehar bhej dia tha aur iske peeche bhi uska maksad kuch aur he tha. Yaha gaanv ke bahar ek purani haveli me woh 5 mardo ke beech akeli mahila thi lekin dekhne se yahi pratit hota tha ke sabhi uske shubhchintak he the.
"Bebe, is baar katai kaam khatam he kar dena hai. Na yu Rameshwar ka jhanjhat arr na teri saas Chandro ka.", Ye 45-50 saal ka robila adhed Sushila ka mamera bhai tha aur jaise kareebi raajdar.
"Narsingh, meri pareshani ki wajah hai Bheem, Shabnam arr Bijender. Rameshwar ka pauta toh maaran khatir 8-10 tayaar hai lekin Bijender pehla uske gail akele bhidega baad me Bheem kaam kar dega uska. Lekin Bheem chahve hai aadhi jayedad, Babita arr Menaka. Shabnam raand hai jo mere khayaal se kaal manne bhi raste se hata sake hai kyunki sirf mere dhore he uske saboot hai.", Baaki paancho dhyaan se dekh rahe the Sushila ko
"Bijender?", Narsingh ne itna he poocha.
"Woh bawla ho chukya hai. Babita pasand hai arr shaadi ki ratt laag ri hai uske."
"Bebe, zinda gaad diunga je usne koi aisi harkat karan ki sochi bhi. Naam maati me milavega kunbe ka arr biradari ka.", Ye toh pal me he angare sa dehakne laga tha aur baaki sabke bhi chehre waise ho gaye the.
"Shaant reh. 2 saal jail me bhejan ki sochu thi arr itni der me Babita ka byaah bhi kade kar he devange aapni pehchaan me. Tu arr thaam baaki sab dhyaan dio ke jagah pe 6 baje pahuchna hai. Bheem ka kaam khatam karna hai arr fer uss chhore ki lash Rameshwar ki gali me fenkni hai. Shabnam hath chadhe toh sasuri kar dio saaf waah bhi.", Sushila sach me he jehar ugal rahi thi. Uska iraada he nahi tha kisi ko bhi chhodne ka.
"Bebe fer Bindu ne ke kahvegi?", Ye ek aur tagda sa adhed tha jo kursi par baithe hue bhi baaki sabse 5-6 inch uncha he tha.
"Kaale, ek kaam kar fer Bijender ne bhi kaat diye arr Menaka ne bhi. Sala sabut ae koni chhodna arr Arjun Sharma bi godaam me mara milega toh apne aap maamla hawa pakad lega.", Sushila ne ek paanv kursi ke upar rakhte hue thuddi ke neeche hath laga lia.
"Bahot dur ki sochhi se tanne. Menaka ka chakkar Pandit ke paute se, Bijender ka Shabnam gail arr Bheem ne badle ke chakkar me yu kar dia lekin mara gaya unke sath he. Chokhi kahani milegi ya toh. Lekin baaki sab dhyaan rakhio ke koi sa kisi ki najar me naa chadh je. Pehla he saali police kutte ki tarah paache laag ri hai.", Narsingh ke palle ye khooni kaand padd gaya tha.
"Fer ek chhota sa kaam rahvega lekin woh toh main aap kar liyungi. Bindu ki dusri chhori Muskaan ke bhi parr kaatne padenge, jaane waah bhi bahot kuch hai.", Sushila kya karne wali thi ye toh bas wahi jaanti thi lekin kitno ko maut dene ka iraada banaye thi ye khatarnaak baat thi.
"Woh bhi ho je ga bebe. Tu 13 din dukh me bita ke fer kunba kattha kar liye. Mahara bhi sabkuch tera hai, Rammehar fufa ka bhi arr teri sasuraad ka bhi. 40 gaam kabje me aaye paache toh tu he ticket leve gi. Fer main dekhu us doctor ne arr uske ghar ki lugaiya ne.", Narsingh ki aisi baat sunnkar Sushila hansne lage.
"Manne yaad hai ke teri najar uski lugai pe hai. Yaad bhi hai kitne saal pehla dekhi thi.?
"Aaho. Aaj lak yaad hai waah arr sach kahu toh itni jaanleva aurat na dekhi bebe kade.", Narsingh jaise yaadon me Rekha ji ka chehra dhyaan karne laga tha.
"Chaal waa sab bahot dur ki baat hai. Filhal toh aaj ki ghadi dhyaan me raakho. Thodi si bhi chook hoi aur saare sapne khatam.", Sushila waha se khadi ho kar paidal he gaanv ki taraf chal nikli.
"Narsingh, aapni baat yaad rakhiye. Main yu kaam ki keemat leke rahunga. Tu mukar konya sakda.", Sath he baithe itni der se shaant is lambe chaude adhed ki baat sunn kar Narsingh daant dikhane laga.
"Bhai Sushila ki leni hai ne? Le liye. Yaad rakhio koi sa ni bachna chahiye Sushila ne chhod ke. Raat ne haveli bhi saaf kar deni hai.", Narsingh ki aisi baat par woh lamba vyakti bol utha.
"Babita ki pehle maarunga fer usne maarunga. Thaam log bhi dekh lio 3-4 hai unki haveli me. Junn si hath chadhe koi reham ni arr jitna dil kar kario fer ..... samajhdar ho kunsa pehli baar karoge. Hahaha.", Kaala dil aur mann ka bhi kala he tha aur in sabme kahi taqatwar. Ye dusre raste se chal pade tayaari karne ke liye.
.
.
"Gollu bhai, ke lage hai ke jo bhi hon laag reha hai woh thik se? Mama ki baat sachi hai lekin dusri taraf maa hai meri. Usne beech mai konni chhoddu.", Bijender 4 baje he godaam me aa chuka tha aur ye jagah ab pehle si dhool-mitti wali se viprit andar se saaf suthri dikh rahi thi.
"Main salah konni de saku bhai bas itna kahunga ke zindagi me kade kade jaruri nahi ke jo paida kare woh sahi hove arr jo nuksaan kare woh galat. Mama bhi shatir hai arr taai toh khair ke kahu. Fer tera Bheem ke baare me yu sab batana toh manne bhi pareshaan kare hai yar. Tu khud soch ke main kisi chhori gail dushkarm karu toh tu ke karega? Aapni aakhyan ke syaami yu sab thodi der paache honn wala hai."
"Gollu tu kade ehsa koni kar sake aur manne bhi yaa he baat pareshan karan laag ri hai ke waa Menaka Bheem ki sagi chhoti bebe hai arr vidhwa akeli. Arjun uste pyaar kare hai ya waah us ladke ne toh baat sahi hai lekin Bheem jo karega woh toh hatya teh bhi bada apraadh se Gollu."
"Bheem ne haam konya rok sakde ya baat dhyaan rakhiye. Dusri taai khud agar yu karwaan laag ri hai toh hum toh khud-ba-khud shamil ho gye apraadh me. Waise yu khel badda hai hamari soch se. Wah teri England wali bebe bhi toh jugat bhida ri hogi kimme?"
"Haan, is sabme toh waah hai he lekin Maa ke gail milke wa Daadi Chandro ka kaam karan aali hai. Kunn karega yu toh bera bhi koni arr daadi ke kuch hoya toh Maa jo itne saal se chahve hai woh usne mil javega.", Dono kuch pal khamosh se baith gaye the ek taraf. Kuch pal shanti barkaraar rahi aur fir samne wala shutter thoda upar hua aur ye 4-5 log andar aa khade hue.
"Ke haal hai Bheem kaka? Raam-Raam choti daadi.", Sheela Devi aur uska bhimkaye beta Bheem unki taraf aa rahe the. Peeche he 3 aur aadmi the jo Bijender ki najro me he the. Teeno he sapaat-sakht chehre wale lambe chaude. Lekin yaha khade sabhi me Bheem alag he najar aa raha tha. Uska dehati lekin chauda badan Bijender se 25 he tha. Sakht chehre par lambi ghani mooche aur gale me sone ka chokor kasa tabeej kaale dhaage me piroya hua. Woh sachmuch he jaise Mahabharat se nikal kar aa khada hua tha unke samne.
"Daadi ke hove hai re? Tu mera hum-umar hai arr meri maa kaaki ki. Kaaki bulaye kar arr aade toh hal-chal badalan khatir katthe hoye ha fer araam teh haveli pe karange saari baat.", Bheem idhar udhar dekhne laga fir seedha us kamre me ghuss kar waha se lakdi ka takht kagaz ki tarah mutti me pakde is bheetar wale pakke godam me bicha kar uspe baith gaya.
"Thik baat hai.", Bijender ko gussa toh aaya lekin woh dusri taraf dekhne laga jaha woh 3 aadmi ab sath wale khulle kache hisse ki taraf chal diye the. Jaise ye jagah unki he thi.
"Teri maa koni aave ke beta?", Sheela Devi Bheem ki bagal me baithi in dono ko dekhti hui Bijender se pooch rahi thi.
"Aave hai maa bhi Kaaki. Shabnam bebe ne leke waah aade aan he wali hogi.", Bheem uski baat sunkar muskuraya aur pichle kamre se Sushila idhar he chalti hui aa khadi hui. Peeche he dupatte se mooh dhake Shabnam khadi thi. Ye gali wala rasta tha jo Bheem ko bhi abhi pata laga tha.
"Ghani lambi umar hai teri Sushila."
"Bera ni umar lambi hai ya teri jubaan kaali hai Sheela. Chaal tu andar kamre me aaja arr Bheem ke irada hai Menaka ne aade bulaan ka? 5 baj chuke hai sab nibta ke safai bhi karni padegi" Sushila ke baat par Bheem ke ek aankha halki si kaampne lagi thi.
"Kaaki, usne aade ka pata dena thik konya arr ghar pe jaa ke thaa ke lyana toh khel he kharaab kar dega."
"Matbal? Tanne kimme badlav kia hai ke?"
"Haan Kaki jaruri tha badlav karna bhi. Lekin usne khud konya bera ke waah aade apne aap aan laag ri hai.", Sushila achraj se dekhne lagi Bheem ko.
"Chandro admit hai haspataal me arr aakhiri saans leve hai. Laadli ne dekhe bina na marti aur ladli likad chuki hai sab bhool ke apni badi maa teh milan. Aade se he jaavegi.", Bheem ke chehre par kutil muskaan aa chuki thi. Aur baaki sab usko hairani se dekh rahe the siway Sheela devi ke. Bijender khoon ka ghoont pee ke reh gaya kyonki ab woh teen aadmi bhi udhar he aa khade hue the.
"Yu kis tariya ekdum se?", Sushila ab Bheem ki taraf he aa khadi hui thi aur Shabnam kapde ke peeche se he muskurati sab dekhne lagi.
"Tere sath wali lomdi se pooch kaaki, najar toh isne rakhwa raakhi thi. Main toh maa ne milwaan leke gaya tha. Fer haspataal se he Richa ne phone lagaya mahare jaaye baad Menaka dhore.", Abhi Bheem bata he raha tha ke saamne se murchit haalat me Menaka ko 2 log pakde hue andar chale aaye. Maathe par khoon beh raha tha jaha ek aadmi ne kapda rakha hua tha. Bheem furti se khada ho kar un dono ke samne aa gaya.
"Bhaan ke lode yo ke kar dia? teri maa chodu.", Ek ke gaal par kass ke jhaapad jadte he woh jameen par ja gira. Dusre ne khud he Menaka Bheem ki taraf kar di.
"Ruki koni Bheem bhai sahab toh gaadi ke sheeshe pe eent maarni padi. Apna ek aadmi toh gaadi ke neeche bhi aa gaya. Lekin ya bas behosh hui hai.", Bheem pal me he thanda ho gaya tha.
"Kisi ne dekhya arr gaadi?"
"Kise ne koni dekhya bhai ji. Koi aave he koni aade aur gaadi bahar khadi hai."
"Andar kar tawli usne. Maa le lode koi kaam sahi teh ni karde. Iske kuch hoya toh thaari maa chodd dunga.", Menaka ko phool ki tarah uthate hue usne diwan par daal dia. Bheem ki halat dekhte hue khud Sushila ne uske maathe ko saaf karte hue ghaav dekha aur takiya faad ke dher sari rooi waha laga kar safed leer se patti bandh di. Is dauraan Sheela devi aur Shabnam bhi madad kar rahi thi. Gaadi andar karte he shutter atche se band kar dia gaya tha. 10 minute baad sabkuch shaant ho chuka tha.
"Bolu thi na ke plan mat badle kar. Lekin tu kade sune hai arr Shabnam ke jarurat thi is sabki? Buddhiya maarni thi toh maar deti lekin sab eksath nahi karna tha.", Sushila jabde bheenche bolne lagi toh Bheem bhi najre jhukaye khada ho gaya.
"Mausi, main mera kaam kar rahi hu. Agar Bheem ne aise Menaka ko uthana tha toh main isko bhi nahi batati ye baat. Lekin parshan mat ho aap. Ye jagah aisi hai ke log idhar aane se katrate hai aur Bheem bhi ki koi bacha toh hai nahi. Ab aapka kaam kitna hua hai?", Shabnam par jaise koi prabhav he na pada tha Sushila ke krodh ka. Woh Bijender ko dekhne lagi toh jaise Bijender ko kuch pata he na tha.
"Dekhe ke hai be-akal. Tera kaam koni hoya. 6 bajan wale hai arr dushman ka kimme pata koni.", Sushila ke gusse ke bawjood Bijender shaant he raha.
"Taai woh Bhoora usne len gaya tha 4 baje. Lekin stadium se chhora sadhe 5 ya 6 baje likde kare hai toh thodi der me thaare samne he hoga.", Gollu ki baat sunnkar bhi Sushila ka gussa kam na hua. Lekin Menaka ki karah sunn kar ek baar fir se sabka dhyaan uski taraf ho gaya. Sheela ne jhatt se Menaka ke mooh par kapda laga dia aur Sushila ne peeche se baandhte hue awaaj band kar di. Woh uthne ki koshish karti us se pehle he peeche se dono kalai pakad kar Bheem ne hath bhi takiye ke kapde se kass kar bandh diye.
"Mooh bandhne ki jarurat nahi hai waise. Dono taraf khandhar hai aur peeche wali gali bhi viraan hai. Bypas yaha se 5 kilometer hai jaha shehar ki aakhiri chalu imarat hai.", Bijender Menaka ki aankho me jamane bhar ka dard dekh raha tha. Woh chatpata bhi nahi pa rahi thi.
"Khol dunga bebe. Sab khol dunga aur tu chaah ke bhi nahi cheekhegi.", Bheem ki aisi baat sunkar khoone sane chehre par wahi khauf ke bhaav aa gaye jaise usko ummeed thi.
.
.
"Chalta hu bhai bas bahut practice ho gai.", Idhar Arjun paseene me lathpath apna abhyaas khatam karta hua bench par baith kar glucose pee raha tha aur Balbir usko aaj rukne ke liye mana raha tha.
"Bhai 7 se 10 ka show hai. Chal na yar, Suman jabhi chalegi agar Manju sath jayegi toh."
"Toh bhai Manju ko le jao yar. Lekin mere ghar aaj koi nahi hai toh jana jaruri hai. Taaiji akeli hongi.", Arjun fir kapde badalne andar chal dia aur Balbir bhi. Kuch samay baad he dono saaf kapdo me patri par chalte hue stand ki taraf jaa rahe the.
"Arjun, suno jara.", Manju ne pas aate hue kaha toh Balbir thoda peeche ho gaya.
"Mere sath chalo, jaruri baat hai.", Is baar woh thodi dhimi awaaj me Arjun ka hath pakad kar aage le jane lagi.
"Chalte hai pareshan kyu ho rahi ho.?", Arjun ne araam se jawab dia aur Balbir ko jaane ka ishara karta woh motorcycle nikal kar Manju ko peeche baithne ko bola. Abhi dono stadium se nikal kar pehle chowk par he aaye the ki ye tagda pehalwan Arjun ke hath me kagaj pakdata ek taraf ja kar khada ho gaya.
'Chupchap gaadi me baith. Menaka', Arjun ne stand lagate hue wahi motorcycle khadi kar di. Apna bag Manju ko deta woh hontho par ungli rakhne ke baad us ladke ke barabar khadi kaale sheeshe wali zen car ki taraf badh gaya. Manju ke chehre par ek darr saaf jhalak raha tha. Lekin gaadi ko jaate dekh woh bas number padh saki. Arjun ko usne agaah bhi kia tha ke Menaka ke sath uski bhi jaan khatre me hai lekin woh fir bhi uski baat maan-ne ki bajaye manmani karta raha. Ab aafat aa he chuki thi.
'Beep-Beep' ki is dheemi awaaj ko sunte he Manju hosh me aai. Woh abhi bhi motorcycle ke pas he jami hui khadi thi lekin bag ke andar se aai is awaaj ne uska dhyaan bhang kia. Turant chain kholti woh upar wali jeb dekhne lagi. Yaha ek kagaz aur ye chota sa yantra tha calculator jaisi screen wala. 'Is number par phone karo.' Motorala likha ye kala sa yantra ek sandesh dikha raha tha aur Manju ne woh kagaj dekha toh waha bhi ek aur number likha tha jiske neeche Arjun ka sandesh tha.
'Pareshan mat hona aur is par phone karke bata do Arjun nikal gaya hai. Stadium ke guard room se phone karke Tum ghar chali jana. Love you.", Manju bhochakki reh gai ye padhte he. Matlab Arjun pehle se tayaar tha aur woh khud he Manju ko dur rakhe the.
"Aap phone kar lijiye. Motorcycle main pahucha dunga.', Ye 6 feet ka safed kameej aur neeli patloon me khada vyakti Manju ke liye kisi jinn ki tarah tha. Jaane kaha se ekdum aaya aur Arjun ki motorcycle lekar university ki taraf chala gaya. Manju bhagti hui stadium ki taraf udd chali.
.
.
Hath bandh do lekin aankhen kyu band kar rahe ho bhai? Main itni sharafat se toh sath chal raha hu tumhare.", Arjun ke dono hath nylon ki dori se bandhne ke baad uski agal bagal baithe pehalwano ne bina kuch jawaab diye safed kapda aankho par bandh dia.
"Atchi baat hai.", Arjun muskurata hua araam se peeth seat par tikata baith gaya. Woh dono pehalwan thoda hairaan the ki yaha woh apharan karke le ja rahe hai aur ye ladka unhi par muskura raha hai.
"Bhoore, iska ke chakkar hai?"
"Bhai Sushila tai ne iska kaam karna hai. Main toh jaanu hu ke ladka shareef hai par ke kar saka ha.?", Ye gaadi chalata hua pehalwan jaise hamdardi jata raha tha Arjun ke sath.
"Waise bhaiya aap thode din pehle apne dost ke sath mujhe he dekhne toh aaye the stadium. Woh majra alag tha na.?", Arjun ki baat sunn kar ek pal ko woh chup raha fir bola.
"Galatfehmi ho gai thi chhote bhai. Najar maarne aaye the ke woh ladka kaun hai jisne Bijender bhai par hath uthaya tha.", Bhoora desi bhasha ki jagah saral hindi me jawab dene laga.
"Galatfehmi nahi thi aapki. Main he tha jisne Bijender pehalwan par hath uthaya tha jab woh Vikas bhai se ladne aaye the.", Arjun ke is khulase se charo ek pal usko dekhne lage fir Bhoore ne najar sadak par kar di. Halka ubad-khabadd rasta tha ye bypass shuru hone par.
"Maut intjaar kar rahi hai aur tu yaha deenge haak raha hai. Bijender beech se cheer ke rakh dega tujhe lekin woh nahi maarne wala. Par aur bahot log hai aisi itcha liye waha.", Arjun khamosh ho gaya tha ab. Jaise uska dhyaan mahol ko samajhne me rum chuka ho. Baaki sab bhi aage kuch nahi bole. Ye chhoti si gaadi andar se jaandar he thi. Aur jald he woh palbhar ke liye ruki. Aage se bayi taraf ka darwaja khulne aur band hone ki awaaj ke baad 30 second baad he thoda aage chalti fir band ho gai.
"Nikalo re bahar isne. Apna kaam khatam toh aade rukne ka koi fayeda nahi.", Lekin Bhoore ki baat khatam hui he thi ki usko ek taraf dhakelta hua Bheem aage badha aur Arjun ki gardan pakad kar usko jameen par gira dia.
"Koi kahi na ja raha jitne kaam khatam na ho jata. Is behanchod ki chaati main sabke saamne paadunga.", Arjun aankho par bandhi patti ke sath he uthne laga tha ke peeth par ek tej praaha kia Bheem ne aur ek baar fir woh jameen par ja laga.
"Bheem, yu mera arr iska mamla hai. Tu baad me dekhiye.", Bijender dono ke beech aa khada hua tha. Bheem ek baar usko apni aag ugalti aankho se dekhne laga fir Sushila ko. Bijender ne Arjun ki aankho se patti kholi he thi ki Sushila bhi idhar chali aai.
Arjun ke honth aur maathe se halka khoon aa raha tha. Uska chehra upar karti woh gusse se Arjun ko dekh rahi thi.
"Bijender main toh kahu su ke Bheem ne he yu khatam karan de. Tu ek taraf ho ja."
"Na maa. Shankar arr mere baap me bhi mukabla hoya tha arr aaj main bhi iske khoon ki garmi dekhna chahu hu. Baad me Bheem jo marji kare iske sath lekin mauka jarur dunga isne main.", Bijender apni baat keh raha tha udhar Arjun se 40 feet dur Menaka ke gale pe chaaku rakhe Sheela devi khadi thi. Arjun ke hath khulne ke bawjood bandhe hue the.
"Bebe, agar tu meri baat maan leti toh main is sab me naa padta. Khair tu dagabaj ho gai toh ke baat lekin main pehle isne maarunga fer iski lash ke bagal me tere se pyaar gail apna naya rishta banaunga. Aashiq hai na tera yu? Bhai me ke kami thi jo yu pasand kia.", Bheem chalta hua Menaka ke peeche aa khada hua aur Sheela devi ek taraf ho gai. Gardan par chaaku ab Bheem rakhe hue tha. Menaka ki mooh par bandhi patti hatate hue woh hans raha tha.
"Arjun.. mujhe maaf karrr do.. Bhaiya aapne jo karna hai mere sath kar lijiye. Main sath jaane ko tayaar hu hamesha ke liye. Please isko jaane dijiye.", Sheela devi na ek karara jhaapad Menaka ke mooh par jadd dia uski baat sunte he.
"Haraamjadi mahina na hoya vidhwa hoye aur yaar banaye baithi hai. Itni khaaj thi toh manne kehti tere pe yu saand main khud chadhwa deti. Yu Rameshwar ka pilla pasand aaya tanne.", Menaka ke honth se khoon ki bund thoddi tak aane lagi thi aur Arjun ke chehre par halka sa dard ubhar aaya. Woh jameen par ghutne tikaye khamosh sa aankho ko band kiye baitha raha.
"Dekh jara Shankar ka nakli khoon. Yu pasand aaya tha jo na muaqabla karan ne tayaar laage hai arr na teri khatir ek lafz likdya iske mooh se.", Sushila jaane kis baat par bhadak uthi thi jo ek taraf rakha dedh inchi ka lohe ka pipe Arjun ke sar par maarti uske saamne thook kar aage badh gai. Sar is chott se kuch pal ke liye jameen par tika lekin tapakte khoon ke sath he woh fir se chehra saamne karte hue unhe dekhne laga. Pipe jaise utna majboot na tha ya Arjun ka sar patthar hoga. Khoon toh nikla tha lekin koi bada ghaav jaise kuch na hua.
"Jab sab thakk jao toh bata dena.", Arjun ne Menaka ke subakte hue chehre ko dekhte hue bas itna he kaha.
"Poore 5 minute hai tere pas. Ya tu manne maar de Arjun ya main tera haal kharaab kar dunga. Baad me tera toh nishchit hai marna.", Bijender uko khada karne ke liye baaju pakad kar upar utha raha tha lekin jaise sharir me jaan na thi ya Arjun achanak se chattan bann gaya. Arjun ne is pal me Bijender ko jaise dekha woh pehle thoda jhemp sa gaya fir Arjun ki aankon me jalalat dekhte he uski chaati me ghutna maarta hua cheekhne laga.
"Tu ghana akde hai? Main sochu tha ke tu samajh dar hoga lekin tu marna he chahve hai." Jameen par gire Arjun ko ghaseet kar woh godaam aur is farsh ke beech wale mitti ke hisse tak ghaseet laya.
"Sushila bua, khush toh bahut hongi aap. Apne bete ke sath vishwasghat kar sakti ho toh baaki jitne yaha hai unki bhi bali chadhane ka prabandh karke aai hogi.?" Arjun apne hontho par aaya khoon mitti me thookta hua Sushila ko dekhne laga. Arjun ki aisi muskaan dekh kar Sushila ka rang udd gaya tha.
"Ke ke bake hai tu? Maut sar pe khadi hai aur bhashan deve hai manne. Koi bua na lagti main teri."
"Babita aur Bijender ka rishta toh kabhi hone nahi wala, ye moorakh aulaad waise he mere sath mehnat kar raha hai. Aur jo khud ladki ke gardan par chaaku lagaye khada hai woh khud ko Bheem samajhta hai. Thooo hai aise namardo par.", Arjun jameen se uth khada hua tha aur kapde jhaadta Bijender ko ghoorne laga.
"Maa yo kis tarah jaane hai ya baat? Arr yu tanne bua kehke bulave hai matlab jhooth toh koni bole hai.", Bijender ki baat khatam hui aur udhar se Bheem saand ki tarah dahadta Arjun par lapka. Menaka ki gardan par koi chaku na tha kyonki Bheem Arjun par us se he prahaar karne laga tha.
'Dhaddaammm", Jis raftaar se Bheem uski taraf aaya tha us se doguni raftar ke sath woh zen ka sheesha todta hua uske andar ja fansa. Arjun ki kalai ke upar ye 2 inch lamba ghaav jarur bann gaya tha lekin koi parwah na thi. Baaki sabka jaise halak sookh chuka tha Bheem ki halat dekh kar. Aanan fanan me Sheela devi ne ye dusra chaaku Menaka ki gardan par kass dia tha. Halka khoon bahar challak aaya tha waha se. Arjun ek baar fir se asahaye ho gaya tha. Jo 3 aadmi Bheem ke sath aaye the ab apna dum dikhate woh rooi ki tarah Arjun par laat-ghunse barsate pil pade. Bijender apni maa ko dekh raha tha jo muskura rahi thi aur Menaka ka behta khoon dekh jameen par gire maar khate Arjun ka uske prati pyaar.
"Behanchodd dur hatto. Gollu maar in kameen loga ne.", Bijender jhotte ki tarah un teeno se bhidd gaya tha. Aur uski awaaj sunn kar itni der se sar jhukaye khada Gollu bhi apne dost ki raah par chal dia. Bhoora aur uske dost aage aaye aur idhar ek ke baad ek 6 goliyan us rivolver se chhoot gai. Shabnam ke hath me dhuaa choddti khali rivolver thi aur idhar jameen par Bhoora, Gollu, Bheem ka ek aadmi aur Bijender ka woh pehalwan dost jo Arjun ko leke aaya tha gire pade the. Shabnam koi nishanchi na thi lekin 6 goliyon me 4 log usne gira diye the. Mahol poora badal chuka tha. Shabnam abhi bhi trigger daba rahi thi is ummeed se ki kahi se koi aur goli chale aur nishane par aaya Arjun bhi apne anjaam tak pahuch jaaye.
"Shabnam didi. Ye kaam aapne aate he kyo nahi kar dia tha? Ye sab bewajah maare na jaate.", Arjun me uthne ki taqat na thi lekin woh gardar uthata hua Shabnam ko jaise jaleel kar raha tha.
"Minde, apni rivoler likad ke le aa. Saale saare maarne hai ye. Koi bachke na ja sake.", Bheem jaise taise bahar nikal kar gaadi pakde khada tha. Apne ek aadmi se usne pehle he rivolver plot wale hisse me rakhwai thi ye soch kar ki agar koi bahar aaye toh chatt se he tapka dena. Woh aadmi bhi furti se us aur bhaga. Bijender jameen par gire apne dono dosto ka sar thaame baitha tha. Gollu ki saansein chal rahi thi kyonki goli peit me thi lekin Bhoora shant ho chuka tha. Ek goli seene me aur dusri uske dil ke thik upar lagi thi. Pakka farsh khoon se aise bhara tha jaise balti bhar ke waha udel dia gaya ho.
Agla drishya ekdum alag tha jaha Bheem ka madadgar jameen par rigadta hua andar aa raha tha aur uske aage sadhe 6 feet ka ye daadhi wala 45-50 ke kareeb ka yamraj sa aadmi jisne Minde ki taang pakad rakhi thi.
"Mahol toh jyada kharaab kar dia tumne Sushila. Aur Sheela woh chaku hata lo nahi toh sooni maang tumhare he khoon se bharne me mujhe kasht nahi hoga.", Sheela aur Sushila ke paseene chhoot gaye the apne saamne is pahaad ko khade dekh kar. Bheem ke dono aadmio ke chehre par sateek goli marte hue usne apni baat pukhta kar di thi ki woh Shabnam ki tarah koi kacha nishanchi na tha. Sheela ek taraf khadi hui aur Shabnam ne is taraf se woh lohe ka pipe poori jaane se is vyakti ke sar par maarne ka upkrarm kia.
"Jaanti mujhe toh ye cheshta nahi karti ladki. Ye tinke Umed Singh se takra kar mudd sakte hai lekin hame kharoch bhi nahi de sakte.", Shabnam ko uske haal par chhodta Umed Singh sher si chaal chalta bade araam se Bijender ke sar par aa khada hua.
"Beta bahar gaadi khadi hai aur driver bhi. Isko hospital le jao ye zinda hai.", Bijender ke aansuo se geele chehre par bade pyaar se hath ferte hue Umed Singh ne jaise usko himmat di aur baaki dono dost bhi teji se lapke. Aanan fanan me shutter kholte woh Gollu ko uthaye bahar nikal liye.
"Toh Bheem Singh, baaj nahi aate na tum. Halat toh tumhari bhi thik nahi hai lagta hai kisi naye shikari se takra gaye is baar.", Pehli baar chehre par muskaan aai thi Umed Singh ke aur woh apna bhoora ray-ban utarte hue Bheem ka chehra pakad kar aise dekhne lage jaise doctor mareej ka nirikshan kar raha ho.
"Arjun, Menaka ko khol do aur in teeno ko bandh do. Chalo fir kaam dhanda karte hai, bahot samay kharaab ho gaya.", Umed Singh ne us chasme me he pratibimb dekha tha Shabnam ko jo bhagna chahti thi lekin awaaj aur rivolver apni taraf dekh kar wahi rukk gai. Arjun halka sa ladkhadata hua Menaka ki aur badha. Rassi kholte he woh uske gale lag chuki thi. Aur yahi Umed Singh se galti ho gai jo woh bahar se aate in 5 badmasho ka na dekh saka lekin furti se ek taraf hota woh unki goli se jarur bach gaya tha. Lekin Sheela devi itni khushkismat na thi. Gale ko cheerti woh goli bahot thi uska sharir jameen par girane ke liye.
Narsingh ke pas pistol thi aur baaki 4 ke hath me ek talwar aur 3 lohe ki rod. Aur apni goli ka galat nishana dekh kar woh bhi gaadi ke dusri taraf chippe Umed par 12-14 feet se goli barsane laga. Udhar se bhi 4 goliyan chali jisme 2 log maare gaye, ek toh wahi tha jisko Sushila chahiye thi. Narsingh ki bandook se bhi aakhiri goli Umed ke panv me ja ghusi thi.
"Bach na sakta aaj tu Umed. Goli teri bhi khatam arr meri bhi lekin tu akela hai aur hum 4.", Narsingh ne Bheem ko bhi sahara dete hue utha lia tha. Kaala Umed ki taraf badha kyonki sharir se wahi tha jo Umed se takra sakta tha, Bheem ki halat durust hoti toh shaayad woh bhi aisi himakar kar sakta tha. Lekin un charon ka dhyaan apni taraf badhti maut par na gaya jo teeno mahilao ko kamre me band karne ke baad unki taraf aa raha tha.
"Umed tum jaise 4-5 par neend me bhi bhari padega hijde. Narsingh naam rakhne se tu sher nahi bann ne wala.", Kaale ki talwar ka war bachate hue Umed ne uski kalai pakad li thi lekin hawa me goonji is cheekh ko sunn kar sabhi idhar he dekhne lage.
"Waar samne se karte hai Bheem, peeche se geedad he jhoothan churane aate hai.", Arjun ne Umed ki taraf lohe ki rod liye badh rahe Bheem Singh ko kamar se pakad kar us gaadi ke bonutt par aise de mara tha ke Bheem ki cheekh me gaadi ka tootna bhi sunai na dia tha. Bache hue sheeshe bhi mitti ki tarah har taraf bikhar gaye the aur Bheem kate vriksh sa aadha bonnut par aur aadha gaadi ki chatt faade uske bheetar. Sharir kuch hilne ke baad shant ho gaya tha lekin ab Narsingh ki kalai Arjun ke hath me thi. Udhar Umed bhi kuch josh me Kaale ki talwar uski he chaati ke bheetar daal chuka tha.
2 aur goliya chali jiske sath he Narsingh jameen par gir gaya bina Arjun ki maar khaye aur aakhiri wala bhagne se pehle he jameen soongh raha tha.
"Chote pandit, hamesha deri se he aati hai police. Khair tum aaye toh ab sambhalo ye sab. Main nikalta hu.", Sanjiv bhaiya gambhir chehre se Arjun ko dekh rahe the, jo muskura raha tha. Umed Singh Sanjiv ko aankh dikhate hue Arjun ke seene se lagte hue bas itna he bole, "Naaj hai tujhpe. Message deri se mila uske liye sorry, woh chunaav bhi aa rahe hai na."
"Chacha, phone karta hu subah.", Arjun ne bhi sankshipt sa jawaab dia aur woh andhere me bahar nikal gaye.
"Ye sab mujhe Manju ke phone se pata chala. Aur dadaji se tera pager number. Itni badi vardaat tu akele karne nikal aaya?", Gusse me unhone Bheem ke chehre me 2 goliyan utaar di thi.
"Jeb dekh lia karo jara apni. Gaadi me baithne se pehle maine kagaj dala tha. Secret service wale undercover.", Arjun unke gale lagte hue hansne laga. Sanjiv bhaiya bi apne chhote bhai ki hansi par shaant ho gaye the.
"Baaki sab kaha hai?"
"Udhar band kia hua hai hath bandh ke.", Unke sath he woh Sushila aur Shabnam ke pas aa gaya jo jameen par baithi thi, haath peeche se bandhe the unke. Aur ek taraf khadi Menaka ke gale par Arjun ka rumaal bandha tha.
"Chal tu Menaka ko le kar nikal main inhe jara sasural ke darshan karwata hu. Waise toh irada kuch aur hai lekin kanoon ki hadd me rehna jyada sahi rahega. Ghar pe ye undercover wali baat."
"Haan nahi kehta main kuch bhi lekin apne chhote bhai se mat chupaya karo itna sab. Rivolver rakhni nahi aati aapko abhi tak."
"Tera pager hai kaha? Aur ye itna advanced pager tere pas?", Sanjiv bhaiya Sushila ke peeth par rivolver lagaye chal rahe the aur Shabnam bhi sehmi hui sath he thi.
"Mere pas bahot kuch hai lekin manahi hai. Pager Umed chacha ke kehne par ek policewala kal deke gaya tha aur dadaji ko pata tha. Isliye sab gharwale bahar hain.", Arjun ne ye jor ka jhatka dia tha Sanjiv bhaiya ko.
"Wo is sab ke baare me jaante hai? Aur unhone tujhe ijajat di is sabki? Bina soche ki tu itna chhota hai aur yaha jaan ja sakti thi.", Sanjiv thoda sakte me tha.
"Yaha aur bhi log hai bhaiya. Dusri baat unhe ye pata hai ke Umed chacha sab kar rahe hai, main toh sirf chhota sa pyada hu. Samjh lo khabri jaisa. Idhar toh main aaya he nahi hu. Aap unse bhi yahi kahenge.", Arjun ne bahar khadi jeep ko dekha toh thoda sochne laga. Fir shutter ke pas khadi bullet dekh kar woh uski taraf badha. Ye Bijender ki thi aur chabi usme he lagi thi.
"Kisi ko main kuch nahi kehne wala lekin tujhse bahot sawaal hai mere. Manju agar phone na karti toh yaha gadbad ho jaani thi aaj.", Sanjiv bhaiya ne dono mahilao ko jeep ke piche baithane ke baad seat ke sath he ek ek hath unke hathkadi se bandh diye the.
"Manju na karti toh bhi aapke pas phone aata. Waise pager dekh lijiye message jarur hoga poore 6 baje.", Arjun ne Menaka ko apne peeche bithaya aur Sanjiv bhaiya apne pager ki hari light me woh sandesh padhne lage.
"Hmm. Toh tujhe mera pager number bhi pata hai?"
"Aap aage chalo main araam se aata hu. Sawaal mere bhi bahot hai lekin fir kabhi baat karenge jab aapka dil ho jeera-lemon pilane ka. Abhi mujhe kuch kaam hai." , Arjun ne kick lagate hue woh bullet start ki aur bhaiya gaadi me baith ne ke sath he wireless par koi sandesh dene lage. Aaj pehli bar woh apna parichaya de rahe the. IPS Sajiv Sharma. Lal batti wali woh jeep unse aage chalne lagi thi aur Arjun dheemi raftar se ye alag tarike ki bullet chalata thandi hawa ka lutf lene laga.
"Aaj tumne mujhe khareed lia Arjun. Beshak tum mujhe fir kabhi mat dekhna lekin main tumhe bachana he chahti thi.", Menaka uski kamar me hath daale bhavuk ho gai thi aur pachtava bhi tha ke itna sabkuch ho gaya.
"Ye aise waqt par bhi rone ki wajah samajh nahi aa rahi. Tum mere sath ho, dono zinda aur salamat. Hamare pyaar ki wajah se dekho aaj Bheem Singh bhi nahi rahe aur tumhari maa bhi. Dekha jaye toh tumhe mujhse nafrat karni chahiye kyonki meri wajah se pariwar khatam ho gaya tumhara.", Arjun sapaat lehje me keh raha tha. Lekin Menaka jor se uski peeth se lipat gai.
"Aaj maine dekha tha tumhari aankho me. Tum apni jaan bhi dene ko tayaar the. Kaise kar sakte ho itna pyaar woh bhi aisi aurat se jo shayad tumhari dushman he thi ek tarah se.", Arjun kuch jawaab deta us se pehle he 'bhadaaakk.. chhrrrrrrrrrrr' ka ye dhamaka vatavaran ko hila gaya. Unse 500 meter dur chal rahi bhaiya ki jeep is bypass wale modd se viprit disha me uchalti hui sadak se pare ghane vriksho me ja lagi. Dhamake ki garzana aisi thi ki ek pal ke liye bullet bhi aniyantrit ho gai lekin Arjun badhavaas sa khud he motorcycle neeche girata us taraf bhaagne laga. Sthiti har tarah se bekabu ho chuki thi. Us canter se utar kar 3 log jeep ki taraf bhadd rahe the jab tak Arjun waha pahuchta ek aadmi ne driver ke bheje me goli utaar di thi. Dusra peeche wale hisse ki taraf jata khali kanasatar se jaise paani chidakne laga tha.
"Sanjiv kade gira hai re? Usne zinda nahi chhodna.", Woh aadmi aage kuch kehta us se pehle he 2 goliya uske seene me aa lagi udhar jhaadio se. Baaki dono bhi udhar he lapke lekin koi aur goli chalti us se pehle he Arjun dono ko liye andhere me kood gaya.
"kaddaakk" ki tej awaaj aur jungle is aadmi ki cheekh se goonj utha. Arjun ne reedh ka jodd he todd dia tha. Dusra sambhalta us se pehle he uska sharir jeep par jaa gira.
"Bhaiya-Bhaiya..", Arjun pukarta hua aage badh raha tha aur samne se karahta hua Sanjiv pasliya dabaye dusre hath me pistol ke sath rigadata hua aa raha tha. Arjun ne furti se unhe apne kandhe par dala aur sadak ki taraf badhne laga. Andhere me dono bhaio ke chehre-sar se khoon behta jameen geeli kar raha tha. Ye majboot sa hath Arjun ke paanv par kasa toh woh jaise neeche baithne laga, lekin fir khud he mutthi khul gai thi.
"Mohar Singh.. Mohar Singh hai ye. Arjun aise hum nahi ja payenge bhai.. Tu jeep dekh, maine wireless kia hua hai. Unhe bata iske baare me.", Idhar Menaka bhi aa khadi hui thi. Kuch aur na soojha toh apne sar par bandhi patti aur gale ka rumaal woh Sanjiv bhaiya ke sar par dabati hui unka khoon rokne lagi. Kismat itni bhi bereham na thi aaj. Arjun ki aankhon me aansu dekh shayad bhagwan bhi taras kha gaya tha. Laal batti ki jeep aur badi van modd se idhar aati dikhi. Arjun apne bhaiya ko kandhe pe liye thik sadak ke beech khada hota unke samne aa gaya.
"Inhe jaldi hospital leke chalo. Aur udhar jeep me dekho ke koi zinda hai kya.", Arjun ki baat sunn kar bhaiya dard me bhi muskurane lage.
"Ye apna kaam kar lenge. Idhar Lucky hai mere sath. Tu yaha se nikal aur jubaan band rakhna. Main jald milta hu tujhse.", Lucky bhi Sanjiv ki halat dekh ghabra gaya tha lekin dusri gaadi walo ko nirdesh deta woh jeep liye shehar ki taraf nikal chala. Jeep me Sushila aur Shabnam shayad behosh ho gai thi jinhe ye 4 policewale gadi me daalne ke baad baaki 3 adhmare aur mrit vyaktio aur driver ki lash ko bhi van me lita kar wapis nikal gaye. Ghatnasthal par ek hawaldar chhodd kar.
"Bhai, jara waha se meri motorcycle la do ge?", Arjun ne kamar par hath rakhte hue us policewale se kaha aur woh bina kuch kahe andhere me us taraf chal dia. Arjun ki soch se kahi jyada he bada mamla ho gaya tha ye. Aaj ek pal ke liye woh jaise apne bhaiya ko kho he chuka tha. Aisa ho jata toh shayad Arjun zindagi bhar ye iljaam apne dil par liye rehta. Jaise taise woh khamosh sa Menaka ko liye uske ghar aa gaya. Agle 10 minute me woh bister par leta tha Manju ke kamre me jaha ye doctor sahab uske har ghaav par marham lagane ke baad neend ka injection de kar chale gaye the. Kuch aisa he dusre kamre me Menaka ke sath hua tha.
"Iska dhyaan rakhna bitiya. Aur hosh me aane par keh dena ke Rameshwar Sharma ke sawaal iska intjaar kar rahe hai. Ye masoom pyada meri gair-maujdgi me vajir bann baitha.", Ye Pandit ji he the jinke sath Tejpal Sharma chupchap khade the.
"Koi ghabrane wali baat toh nahi hai na dadaji?", Manju ki aankhon me aansu dekh kar woh muskura diye.
"Ye mera abhimaan hai bitiya, kabhi kuch nahi ho sakta isko. Lekin nasamjh hai thoda jyada hoshiyaar pata nahi. Ghaav chhote motte hai 1-2 din me toh dikhne wale bhi nahi. Chalo aaj bitiya tumhare hath ki chai pila do ab aa he gaya hu toh fir kya 10 minute aur kya ghanta.", Rameshwar ji Manju ko sar sehlate hue bahar sofe par aa baithe.
"Toh Bittu mia, dekh lia najara?"
"Pandit ji, ye pagalpan he tha. Sanjiv mara jata agar ye na hota toh. Umed ke bhi paanv me goli lagi hai. Lekin ye kaise pahuch gaya udhar?"
"Policewale ka khoon toh kahi na kahi sabme he hai is ghar me. Isne kaha tha ke ye Umed ki madad karega, guru hai na woh iska. Lekin Umed bhi jaise iska gulam ho gaya hai. Baaki sab toh jaanch ke baad pata lagega. Kaha khaad me mitti dene ki baat kahi thi aur ye sab saaf kar aaya.", Rameshwar ji ki muskaan rehasya se bhari thi.
"Chandro Devi ki halat bhi sthir hai ab. Doctor keh rahe the ki khatre se bahar hai. Bheem-Sheela devi ne 3 aur logo ki madad se Sushila ke pariwar par hamla kia jisme Mohar Singh ke sath 12 aur log maare gaye hai apradhiyo ko mila kar.", Jaise Tejpal mama ne khakha tayaar kia ho report banane se pehle.
"Hmmm.. 12 ki jagah 13 kar do Tejpal. Ek ko humne khud ajaad kar dia. Bhabhi ji se main parso mil lunga aur Sushila ko kehna ki Rameshwar aaj bhi unka bhala he sochta hai beshak uski wajah se mere bete ki khushiya maine khatam kar di lekin usko ba-ijjat bari kar dia gaya hai. Bijender se vyaktigat mulakaat main parso kar lunga. Haan Shabnam ko apni nigrani me rakhna, Shankar karega baat aane par.", Idhar Manju chai rakhne ke baad Menaka ke kamre me chali gai.
"Ji. Order aur file toh aap bhijwa he denge. Waise abhi aap yahi rukne wale hai?"
"Barkhurdar tumhare pita ji ne aaj dawat rakhi hai toh hum yaha kya karenge. 8:00 baje hai toh 45 minute me toh tum mujhe ghar utaar he doge.", Tejpal ji ke chehre par bhi hansi aa gai.
"Waise sach kahu toh Arjun ko dekh kar garv hota hai."
"Haan bhanja jab mama ki gardan pakadne lage toh garv hoga he. Hahaha.. Waise sach baat hai. Main isko in sabse dur rakhna chahta hu lekin chah kar bhi rakh na paunga.", Rameshwar ji kamre me nigaah marte hue Arjun ko dekhne lage.
"Ab chintit hone ki wajah he nahi hai uncle. Sab saaf toh kar he dia hai Sanjiv aur Umed ne milkar. Jo bache hai woh dost rahenge ya shubhchintak."
"Iske sath ek samasya hai beta. Kaam na mile toh ye khud he dhoond leta hai. Abhi toh chalo jo hua so hua. Aur main bhi koshish karunga ke iski shiksha thodi jyada badha du, mere liye he atcha rahega. Chalo bhai ab chalte hi. Beti ke ghar ki chai pee li bahot atcha laga.", Rameshwar ji uthne ke baad fir se Arjun ko dekh kar Manju ko bhi aashirwad dete hue bahar nikal chale.

Bijender ICU ke bahar baitha tha apne ek dost ke sath. Aaj usne ek dost kho dia tha aur dusra shayad kho he deta agar Umed kaka uski samay rehte madad na karte. Aankhe abhi tak bheegi thi. Sabse ajeeb baat ye hui thi ki is haspataal me he uski maa aur chacheri behan ko bhi laya gaya tha lekin woh batane ke bawjood waha se hila nahi.
"Ji, aapke kapde aur khana laai hu.", Anupama pehli baar bahar yu uske saamne aai thi. Beshak Babita he usko leke aai thi lekin Babita alag emergency ward me apni maa ke pas chali gai thi. Ek pal toh Bijender khamosh baitha raha, shunya me dekhte hue lekin fir uski kamar par mooh rakhte hue woh fafak kar ro pada. Yaha bas 3 he log the lekin uska dost bahar chala gaya tha halat dekh kar.
"Aapne kabhi kuch galat nahi kia lekin kahi na kahi chook hui hai. Hum mil kar sudhar sakte hai sabkuch. Balwaan (Bhoora) bhai ke jaane ka mujhe bhi dukh hai lekin Gollu bhaiya khatre se bahar. Haunsla rakhiye aap. Chaliye kapde badal lijiye itne main yaha dekhti hu.", Anupama ki saaf aur dil se kahi baat sunkar Bijender khada ho kar uske gale lag gaya. Woh bahot kuch kehna chahta tha lekin aaj jaise shabd nahi foot rahe the.
"Hum nai shuruwaat kar sakte hai. Kal papa ko mukhagni deni hai aapko aur uske baad jimmewari sambhalni padegi sari.", Bijender ne chehre se chehra lagate hue sirf haami bhari aur kapde le kar chala gaya. Police ne is maamle me inme se kisi se poochtach toh nahi ki thi lekin apni tayaar report par hastakshar karwa liye the. Shabnam ko sandigdh ki shreni me rakha gaya tha aur uska ilaaj bhi police nigrani me he ho raha tha.
"Dekh maa, ke ho gaya poore pariwar gail. Tanne sabke syaami yo keha tha ne ke meri chhori itne byaah ni karegi jitne Shankar ke pariwar sath badla na le lia jaye. Manne sirf teri haa me haa milai thi. Lekin aaj Shankar ke pariwar ne poora ghar khatam karne ki jagah tanne ba-ijjat bari arr us harami maame ki maut bhi badle ki bhavna se ki hatya likh di. Woh chhora sabne maar sake tha lekin usne ek ki jaan bhi konya li. Eb tere dhore bahot tame hai sochan ka. Yu taang toot chuki hai, kalai ki haddi bhi arr sarr pe 6 taanke aaye hai. Hafta aathe he reh, main halchal leti rahungi tera.", Babita ne aage kuch na kehte hue apni maa ko daal ka paani bade pyaar se pilaya jo Sushila peena nahi chahti thi. Aankhe uski bhi bhari thi aur sab khone ke baad ehsaas hua tha ke woh kitni kharaab bahu, biwi, maa aur behan thi. Lekin fir samne se Bijender ko aate dekh mooh fer lia. Aaj himmat na thi apne bete ki aankhon ka samna karne ka.
"Ae maa, tu tawli thik ho jya. 13 din baad tere chhore ka arr chhori ka byaah hai.", Bijender gol stool par baithta apni maa ke gaal par hath rakhte hue bola toh Babita hairani se usko dekhne lagi.
"Bebe tu tension na le. Gollu gail tera ar Anupama gail mera byaah hovega. Gollu ne hosh aaya toh manne bataya ke main Anupama ne pasand karu hu. Woh bawla toh Arjun dhore kaal stadium he chala gaya tha yu kehan ke Bijender ne woh kuch na kare arr woh yu sab apne pyaar khatir karan laag reha hai. Fer bera chalya ke thamm donu pasand karo ho ek dusre ne. Chaal ma tu araam kar, main tadke aaunga milan. Gollu ke maa-baap ho sake hai ke hal-chal len upar aave. Main Anupama ne chhod ke aau ghar. Tu dhyaan rakhiye bebe apna. Jo galti hui uske khatir chotte bhai ne maaf kar diye.", Jaane se pehle woh apni maa aur behan se gale lag ke mila.
"Dekh le iska dil. Yu hai sacha arr pariwar ki hifajat karan wala. Khair tere neend ki sui de rakhi hai toh tu araam kar. Mai is bistre pe sou hu.", Babita ne bhi maa ke chehre par hath ferte hue kaha aur fir khali bister par leit gai.
Sushila soch rahi thi ki agar aaj yahi ladai Shankar ke sath hui hoti toh ek baar fir sab khatam ho jata lekin waha Arjun tha. Jo marne ko tayaar tha aur sabko bachane ke liye bhi.
"Beti, ek baar bas Arjun ne sandesh bhijwa diye ke uski bua milna chahve hai us se. Shankar toh kade koni aave lekin woh chhora bhala hai.", Sushila ne itna kaha aur aankhe band kar li. Wahi Babita muskura uthi apni maa ki baat sunkar.

Raat 12 baje Arjun jhatke se uth khada hua. Paseene se bheega jism aur uttejjana se woh bechain sa tha lekin fir achanak he woh wapis bister par ludhak gaya.
