Fir donon nurse ke jane ke baad cab pakad kar airport ki taraf nikal gaye.
Ravi aur Rajni flight pakad kar sabse pehle Madurai gaye ( jaisa ki Ravi ko bataya gaya tha). Vanha par ve donon Meenakshi mandir gaye. Yanha par donon hath me hath dalkar sath sath chal rahe the aur ek dusre ke sanidhya ka aanand utha rahe the.
Jab vo donon mandir ke dwar par panhuche tu unse donon ka rishta puccha gaya, tu unhone hone wale Pati patni bataya. Unhe ikkhathe andar nahin jane diya gaya. Ravi ne kafi minnatte ki lekin vo nahin mane aur Pucchane par bataya ki yanha aane wali ladki Parvati ka rup ban jati hai aur yanha darshan karne se usse pari ki prapti hoti hai, agar pehle se hi kisi purush ke sath uska parvesh hoga tu usse bahut kashat bhoghne padenge. Rajni ko unhone sar ko pallu se dhakne ke liye kaha. Ve donon mandir me alag alag gaye aur jab Puja karke bahar aane lage tu ek pandit ne un donon ko kaha 'tum donon ka bahut jaldi pannigrahan hoga'
Rajni : iska matlab?
Pandit ji: tum iske sath bahut jaldi vivah karne ja rahi ho
Rajni: maine tu abhi aisa kucch socha hi nahin hai
Pandit ji: apane jeevan ke liye tumhe bahut jaldi ye sab karna padega. Tum yanha se seedhe Rameshwaram chale jao, tumhare kashton ka nivaran hoga
Rajni: lekin....
Pandit ji: bas ab iske aage kucch nahin bataunga, honi hokar rahegi. Mera aashirwad tumhare sath hai
Ravi ne un Pandit ji ko kucch dena chaha tu unhone inkar kar diya aur apani sadhna me leen ho gaye.
Vanha se nikal kar Rajni ke man me kai sawal uth rahe the lekin uttar kisi ka nahin mil raha tha. Bahar aakar
Rajni: ab
Ravi : jaisa tum kaho
Rajni: Pandit Ji ne Rameshwaram jane ke liye kaha hai
Ravi: tum Jana chahti ho
Rajni: Jana bhi chahti hun aur nahin bhi
Ravi: Jo kaam karna hai dil se karo nahin tu mat karo.
Kucch der sochne ke baad Rajni ne jane ke liye kaha tu Ravi ne ek Taxi book kar li aur ve donon Rameshwaram ke liye nikal gaye.
Raste me Rajni ab Ravi se chipak kar baithi hui thi. Taxi me driver aur passanger seat ke bich me partition tha jisse puri privacy thi. Ravi ne bhi apane banye baithi Rajni ke banye kandhe par apane banye hath ko uski gardan ke peeche se nikalkar rakha hua tha. Aisa karne se Rajni ka danya uroj Ravi ki banyi chhati se ragad kha raha tha aur donon ki bhavnao ko bhadka raha tha. Ravi ka hath jo baju par tha usse vo dheere dheere apani ungaliyon se sehlate ja raha tha. Bich bich me Ravi ki ungali Rajni ke uroj ke ubhar ko chhu jati thi, jisse Rajni ko siharan hone lagati, lekin usne Ravi ko aisa karne se roka nahin.
Rajni ke man me kai sawal ghum rahe the jo preshan kar rahe the lekin Ravi ki ungaliyon ka saparsh usse unn sawalon se bhatkane me madad kar rahe the. Jab Ravi ki ungaliyon ne Rajni ke hath aur uroj ke bich ki line me ghusne ki cheshta ki tu Rajni ki dhadkan badhne lagi aur iss se mukti pane ke liye usne baton ka sahara lena chaha
Rajni: Vo Pandit ji kya bol rahe the
Ravi: (apani ek ungali ko Rajni ke ubhar me jor se dabate hue) tumhe meri patni banna padega, kya tum banna chahti ho
Rajni: (uuu....iii, Rajni ke aisa karte hi Ravi ne thodha sa dabav kam kiya aur fir bich bich me dabav badha deta) pata nahin...... lekin kaise ho sakta hai, ..... agar main aapse shaadi karungi to .... to... mausi ka kya hoga!
Ravi: (usko thoda sa aur apane sath chipkate hue) matlab tum shaadi tu karna chahti ho lekin mausi ke Karan nahin chahti
Rajni: Main mausi ka ghar barbaad nahin karna chahti
Ravi: (apane hath se uski banyi baju ke kankh me ungali se sehlate hue) vaise tum kaho tu tumhare jaisi khubsurat pari ke liye tumhari mausi ko chhod dun
Rajni: nahin nahin
Ravi: tu theek hai ab jitni jindagi bachi hai usse Kam se kam hansi khushi jee lete hain
Rajni ne jaldi se apane hath ko Ravi ke munh par rakh kar 'nahin main aapko kucch nahin hone dungi'
Ravi uske hath ko chumte hue 'mujhe kucch nahin ho raha hai, main tu tumhari jindagi ke bare me keh raha tha'
Rajni: Main bas kisi ko bhi dukh nahin Dena chahti
Ravi: Agar tumhe kuchh ho gaya tu tumhe kya lagta hai ki kisi ko bhi dukh nahin hoga
Rajni baat ka matalab samajhte hi Ravi ke gale lag gayi aur kehne lagi 'Main aapko dukh dene ke bare me tu sapne me bhi nahin soch sakti. Agar aapse shaadi karne se sab theek ho sakta hai tu main apane aap ko soubhagyashali samjhungi, lekin mausi.............'
Ravi usse apane sath thoda sa bhinchte hue 'kaun mausi, agar tumne mujhse shaadi ka soch liya hai tu tum Anjali ki soutan ban jaogi?'
Rajni: kk....y... ..y....aa ....
Ravi: kyoun soutan banna pasand nahin aaya
Rajni apane hath ki ek ungali se Ravi ki chhati ki kuredte hue 'Haan thodha sa ajib tu lag raha hai lekin shaadi karni hai tu karungi chahe kisi ki bhi soutan banna pade?'
Ravi ne iss mouke ka fayada uthana chaha, lekin bina jaldbaazi ke usne Rajni ke chehre ko apane hathon me pakadkar uski aankhon mein dekhte hue 'tum dil se mujhse shaadi karna chahti ho ya majburi me?'
Rajni : (thandhi saans bharte hue) Pehle tu ajib lag raha tha, lekin ab main aapke begair rehne ka soch bhi nahin sakti
Ravi: (uske hothon ko apane hothon se chum kar) lekin tum sach me Anjali ko soutan ke rup me swikar karogi
Rajni: (usne bhi Ravi ke hothon ko chumkar) aap mujhse pyaar karte hain bas yahi bahut hai, chahe koi bhi meri soutan bane, farak nahi padta
Ravi: koi bhi baat soch kar kehni chahiye?
Rajni: Maine yeh baat soch kar hi kahi hai
Ravi: soch lo kahin aisa na ho ki kal ko tumhari mausi ke sath sath tumhari mom aur tumhari behan bhi tumhari soutan ban jayen
Rajni: (apane galon ko Ravi ke galon se ragdte hue) aap baar baar meri mom Ko bich me le aate ho, kya main aapko acchi nahin lagti?
Ravi: (maze lekar usko gaur se dekhte hue) tum acchi............. Tum bahut acchi ho balko ek pari ho, lekin tumhe bura na lage isliye tumhri mausi ke sath sath tumhari mom ko bhi soutan bana deta hun. Isse tumhe koi bura bhala nahin kahega aur tumhe mausi ka ghar todne ka dosh nahi dega
Rajni: aap mere bare me itna sochte hain. aapke sath shaadi ke liye mujhe ajib tu lagega lekin mujhe koi kucch bhi kahe sab manjur hai
Iss tarah kai baatein hoti rahi aur un donon ki athkheliyan bhi chalti rahi aur vo apani manjil ki taraf badte gaye.
Vo Rameshwaram panhuch gaye aur ek dukan par cab rokkar Driver ne bataya ki vanha jane ke liye dhoti aur saree le le tu unhe aaram rahega. Vo donon uttarkar dukan ke andar hath me hath lekar chale gaye.
Dukan par jakar unhone Rameshwaram jane ke liye kapde kahe tu dukandaar ne unka naap puccha. Ravi ne tu apana naap bata diya, lekin Rajni ko sharam aane lagi. Dukaandar ne ek salesgirl ko bulakar unki madad ke ke liye bola aur khud vanha se chala gaya. Salesgirl ke naap pucchane par Rajni sharmane lagi. Usne kaha 'apane marad ke samne kya sharmana?'
