Update- 03
Subeh ke 7 baje they.....................sam nashta kar raha tha tabhi uske ghar ki door bell baji..................wo uthkar fauran main door ki taraf gaya aur jaise hi usney darwaz khola samney do saksh khade they.......................ye wahi naukar they jinko sam aaj kaam par rakhney wala tha...............aur jinhein rakhtey hi na sirf uski life badalney wali thi................balki uski wife ki poori zindagi bhi aab badal jani thi..............dekhna tha ki aagey waqt ko kya manzoor tha........................
Ab Aage...................................................................
Sam ki nazar apne samney khade un do sakshon par gayi jinhein wo badi hi ajeeb nazreion se ghoor raha tha.............aur ghoorta bhi kyon na.........wo dono they hi aise..............
"Namaste maalik................main shanti bai.................wo..........kallu thekedaar ne hum dono ko yahan aapke paas kaam ke liye bheja hain..................." aur samney khadi ek 35 saal ki aurat ............jiske kapdey kahin kahin hulke se fate hue se they..................aur uski saari maili kuchli si............jispar kuch pasiney aur dhool mitti ke daag bhi saaf nazar aa rahe they.........................uske kandhey par ek kapdey ka thaila latka hua tha.............aur rang bhi uska sawla sa tha................dikhney mein uski shakal soorat koi khaas nahin thi............ pairon mein chapaal they magar poori tarah se ghisey hue se they...............dekhney se wo bahut gareeb ghar ki lag rahi thi........aur mazboor bhi..............sam apne samney khadi us aurat ko sir se lekar pawn tak scan karta raha fir apne dusari side mein khade us saksh ki taraf bade gaur se dekhney laga.............
jaise hi sam ki nazar us saksh par padi wo apne dono haathon ko jodhta hua sam ke samney apne sir ko dheere se jhukata hua....... " namaste maalik " kehkar chup ho gaya..........wahin sam jawab mein apna sir hilata hua fir se us saksh ki ore bade dhyaan se dekhney laga............
" ye kaun hain shanti bai................kya ye tumhara mard hain..........................." aur is baar sam fir se shanti ke taraf ek nazar dalta hua dheere se bol pada ...........wahin shanti dheere se muskurate hue aagey kehney lagi..............
"nahin saheb...............ye humara marad nahin hain...................magar hain to ye mere gaanv ka hi .............main isko bahut aachey se janti hoon...............wo kya hain na ki ghar mein paison ki bahut tangi chal rahi...........upar se mera marad na to kuch kamata hain aur na koi kaam dhandha karta hain........bus sara din bus juwa khelta rehta......... aur roz sham ko daaru peekar ghar aata aur mujhe marta peetata rehta...........uske ye roz roz ke natak se main tang aa gayi hoon saheb..................bus isi wajah se mujhe kaam ki talash mein sehar aana pada.................." aur shanti gehri saans leti hui apni baat khatam karti hui taktaki lagaye same ke chehrey ki taraf bade gaur se dekhney lagi..............
kuch der ki chuppi ke baad samney khada wo saksh dheere se bol pada.............
" saheb..................mera naam hariya hain...............log mujhe hari ke naam se bulate hain......................" itne kehkar wo saksh bilkul chup ho jata hain wahin sam aab bade gaur se apne samney khade us saksh ki taraf bus dekhey jaa raha tha..............aisa nahin tha ki sam kabhi kisi insaan ko nahin dekha tha ya nahin mila tha...............magar ye hariya naam ka saksh jo is waqt uske theek samney khada tha wo dikhney mein bahut ajeeb tha..............ajeeb is liye tha kyon ki uski personality bhi naukar ke hisab se bilkul bhi match nahin karti thi...............
Hariya....................urf hari...................uski umar yehi koi 45 saal ke aas paas rahi hogi.......................sir ke baal kuch kale they to kahin kahin safed....................usney sir par bahut sara sarso ka tel chipod rakha tha jissey uske sir ke baal aapas mein chipke hue se they..................upar se uspar dhool mitti bhi jami hui thi...............jo uske roop ko aur bhi bura bana rahi thi...........rang to uska sawla tha hi................aankhein kisi aangarey ki tarah surkh laal..........aur bade bade..............naak thoda bada tha aur uspar moochein bhi badi badi.................
wo apne mooh mein rakhkar kuch chaba raha tha...............shayad kuch khaa raha ho...................jissey uske honth to kale they magar ho na ho paan khane ki wajah se is waqt uske honth thode laal nazar aa rahe they.............wo is waqt yakeenan paan hi chaba raha tha.................dikhney mein wo kafi haata kaata tha........jaise pehlawaan type..................aur uski height bhi 6 feet se upar hi hogi............seenay chaudey they aur pet thode bahar ki taraf nikale hue................uske jism aur seenay par kafi baal they jo kapdey kahi kahi fate hone ki wajah se saaf nazar aa rahe they............shareer kafi bhari bharkam...............
halanki usney ek shirt type ka banyaan pehan rakha tha upar se ek half shirt.............jiske button aagey ke sare khule hue they.................jissey uski banyaan saaf nazar aa rahi thi..............banyaan mein kai jagah chote chote ched hone ki wajah se uske seenay aur pet par jo baal they wo bhi nazar aa rahe they.............neechay usney ek neelay rang ki lungi pehan rakhi thi jo wo bhi kai jagah se fati hui thi...........uske kapdon mein dhool mitti bhi saaf nazar aa raha tha...............aur kahin kahin daag itne gehrey they ki wahan ka poora hissa kala padh gaya tha.............
neechay usney ek sleeper pehan rakha tha................uski halat bhi kuch waise hi thi jaise uske kapdon ki..................pawn mein uske dhool lage they................uske peeth par bhi kapdon ka ek thaila latka hua tha.............aur uske jism se pasiney ki hulki hulki si smell bhi aa rahi thi ............kul milakar wo aadmi sam ko raati bhar bhi jama nahin tha................is liye sam us saksh ko ajeeb si nazreion se dekh raha tha.................is tarah se dekhta hua pakar agle hi pal shanti dheere se bol padti hain............
"saheb......................aap iske huliye par mutt jawo............dikhta ye bus aisa hain magar kaam aap issey jo chahe karwo lo........poori imandaari aur lagan se ye sab karega.........aapko zara bhi shikayat ka koi mauka nahin dene dega..................is baat ki main gurantee leti hoon saheb.................hum log gareeb zaroor hain magar chor beiman nahin............." aur shanti apne dono haathon ko jodti hui sam ke samney dheere se bol padti hain wahin sam kuch der tak chup rehta hain...................issey pehle ki wo aagey kuch kehta aasma bahar aati hain aur samney khade un do naukaron ko bade gaur se sir se lekar pawn tak dekney lagti hain..............
wo dono aasma ko dekhtey hue apne dono haathon ko jodh lete hain............. aab unhein ye batane ki zaroorat nahin thi ki samney jo haseena is waqt khadi hain wo kaun hogi.................
" namaste malkin............" main shanti bai............kaam ki talaash mein hum dono yahan aaye hain............malik se kehkar humein kaam par rakhwa dijiye na malkin.................bhagwaan apka bhala karega................" aur shanti itna kehkar khamosh ho jati hain wahin aasma taktaki lagaye bade gaur se kabhi shanti ke taraf dekh rahi thi to kabhi ..................hariya ke taraf..............hariya ka roop rang dekhkar to usey bahut ajeeb sa lag raha tha......................magar wo unki bebasi aur laachari dekhkar fauran sam ki taraf dekhti hui dheere se bol padti hain...........
" sam............inko kaam pe rakh lo..................aur inse ye poochon ki ye ghar aur bahar ka kaun kaun sa kaam kar sakte hain......................."aur aasma haule se shanti ki taraf muskurate hue bol padti hain wahin hariya ek nazar apna sir upar ki taraf uthatha hain aur aasma ko sir se lekar pawn tak apni nazreion se scan karney lagta hain...............aasma ka roop rang dekhkar bhale hi uske dil mein koi hulchal hui ya na hui ho........................magar haan.............tangon ke beech bada sa uska jo latak raha tha .......... usmein zaroor hulchal ho gayi thi.................kaam pe rakhney ki wajah se uske chehrey par aab khushi ke muskaan they...........
" ghar ka sara kaam jaise jhadoo poocha sab kuch main kar doongi malkin................aur saaf safayi bahar ke sare kaam hariya dekh dega.................." aur shanti ke chehrey par bhi khushiyaan saaf jhalak padti hain wahin sam bhi jawab mein dheere se muskura padta hain..........
" kaam karney ka kitna rupiya logi shanti bai................" aur sam ke munn mein agla jo sawal tha wo usey apni jubaan par lata hua dheere se bol padta hain...........
" aap jo hansi khushi se de dengey maalik...............bus humein do waqt ki roti aur pehanany ko do jodi kapdey........aur paise jo aapka munn kare............." aur shanti apne dil ki baat rakhti hui bol padti hain wahin sam aasma ki taraf ek nazar dalta hua................usey dekhta hua................dheere se muskura deta hain.............
"10,000 mahine ke tumko........aur 10,000 mahine ke isey..........theek rahega na..........ye yaad rahe ki ghar ke sare kaam sahi se hone chahiye............apni memsaheb ko zara si baat ki agar shikayat mili to us din main tum dono ko kaam se bahar nikal doonga...............waise aab tum dono rehtey kaha ho...........aur kaam pe kab aawogey.............." sam shanti ke taraf to kabhi hariya ke taraf dekhta hua unse sawal karta hain wahin is baar hariya dheere se jawab deta hain..........
" maalik..............hum is sehar mein naye hain..........to humara koi thikana nahin hain...............agar yahin aas paas koi rehney ko ek chota sa kamra mil jaye to aapki badi meharbani hogi............." aur hariya itna kehta hua ek nazar aasma ke taraf dekhta hain fir wo apni nazrein neechay ki taraf jhuka leta hain........wahin sam kuch der tak chup rehta hain fir wo apne bungley ke samney jo ek chaukidaar ka room jo is waqt khali tha un dono ko de deta hain..........
halanki usmein do chote chote kamrey they.............wo dono sam aur aasma ka shukriya kehkar fauran us chote se kamrey ki taraf chal padte hain................wahin sam aur aasma ek dusare ko dektey hue muskuraney lagte hain..............shayad apni jeet par..........................ya fir shayad apni barbadi par.....................ye to bus aane wala waqt hi tay karney wala tha..............
