Vaani didi ki is baat par ami ke chehre par muskurahat aa gayi aur usne vaani didi ka majak udate huye kaha.

Ami boli “mujhe pata chal gaya hai ki, aapko kab aur kisne patak patak kar bahut maara tha.”

Ye kah kar ami khilkhila kar hasne lagi. Lekin ami ke muh se ye baat sunte hi vaani didi ne fauran aage bad kar ami ke muh par apna hath rakh kar uska muh band kar diya.

Lekin wo khud ko hasne se nahi rok payi. Un ne ami ko khud se chiptate huye badi jor se hanste huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “oye oye Koi To Rok Lo ise, meri chhoti bahan to mujhse bhi badi jasus ho gayi hai.”

Ye kah kar vaani didi bahut jor se khilkhila kar hasne lagi. Keerti aur chhoti maa ko bhi shayad unki is hansi ka matlab samajh me aa gaya tha. Isliye wo bhi vaani didi ke sath hasne lagi.

Ye meri jindagi me pahla mauka tha. Jab mai vaani didi ko kisi ke sath itna jyada masti karte huye dekh raha tha ya kisi baat par unko dil khol kar thahake lagate huye dekh raha tha.

Hum sabko unki is hansi ka karan to nahi pata tha. Lekin unko ami ke sath is tarah se khul kar masti karte dekh kar, hum sabke chehre par bhi khud-ba-khud hansi thirakne lagi thi.

Kuch der tak vaani didi ami ko khud se chiptaye, aise hi hansti rahi. Fir jab unki hansi thami to, ami ne unse kaha.

Ami boli “didi, aapne aniruddha uncle ko unki galti ke liye maaf kar diya na.”

Ami ki ye baat sunkar, vaani didi ne ami ko samjhate huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “betu, abhi tu is baat ki aehmiyat samajhne ke liye bahut chhoti hai. Lekin tu itna to janti hi hogi ki, police ke khabri har jagah par rahte hai.”

Ami boli “haan, mujhe is baare me malum hai. Maine bahut si movie me bhi unhe dekha hai.”

Vaani didi boli “tab to tune movie me ye bhi dekha hoga ki, bahut se police wale bhi gunde aur mujriom ke sath mile rahte hai.”

Vaani didi ki ye baat sunkar, ami ne apni bhohen sikodte huye kaha.

Ami boli “haan, maine ye bhi dekha hai. Lekin mujhe wo police wale bilkul bhi ache nahi lagte.”

Ami ki ye baat sunkar, vaani didi ne use samjhate huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “lekin betu, asal jindgi me bhi aisa hi kuch hota hai. Jaise gunde badmashon ke bich me police ke khabri hote hai. Aise hi police ke bich me bhi gunde badmashon ke khabri hote hai.”

“Jo jara se paise aur power ke lalach me un gunde badmashon ko humari khabar pahuchate rahte hai. Jisse wo gunde badmash humse sawdhan ho jate hai aur hum unhe pakadne me nakam ho jate hai.”

“Aniruddha us samay phone jo baten kar raha tha. Wo bahut hi jyada gupt baten thi. Un baton ki gopniyata bhang hone se na sirf mujrim mere hath se bach kar nikal sakte hai, balki bahut saare logon ki jaan bhi musibat me pad sakti hai.”

Ye kah kar vaani didi ami ka chehra dekhne lagi. Shayad wo ami ke agla sawal puchhne ka intejar kar rahi thi. Us samay mai keerti aur neha teeno aas pas hi khade huye the. Neha ne vaani didi ki ye baat suni to, dhire se budbudaya.

Neha boli “khud karen to, chamatkar aur dusra kare to balatkar.”

Neha ki ye baat sunkar, keerti gusse me use ghoor kar dekhne lagi. Neha shayad nisha bhabhi ko khalid ki khabar dene ki vajah se vaani didi ko ye taana de rahi thi. Waise neha ki ye baat bilkul bhi galat nahi thi.

Keerti bhale hi vaani didi ko hitler manne se inkar karti ho. Lekin mai aur mehul is baat ko manne se kabhi inkar nahi kar sakte the. Ye alag baat thi ki, mai is baat ko kabhi kahta nahi tha aur mehul kahne se kabhi chukta nahi tha.

Vaani didi sach me puri hitler thi. Wo jo niyam dusro ke liye lagu karti thi. Wo niyam unke khud ke upar kabhi lagu hi nahi hote the. Unke niyam dusro ke liye alag the aur khud ke liye alag the.

Kisi baat me kisi ki safayi sunna unki aadat me hi nahi tha. Na hi wo khud kabhi kisi baat ke liye kisi ke samne koi safayi pesh karti thi. Wo apni kisi baat ki kisi ko vajah batane ki bhi koi jarurat nahi samajhti thi.

Neha ki ye baat sunne ke bad keerti to use kha jaane wali narjron se dekh rahi thi. Lekin mai is baat ko sunkar, muskura kar rah gaya. Wahi ami ne vaani didi ki baat sunkar, kuch der sochne ke bad kaha.

Ami boli “lekin didi, ye to galat hai. Police walon ko aisa nahi karna chahiye. Sabhi police walon ko aapki tarah hi imandar hona chahiye.”

Ami ki baat sunkar, neha gaur se vaani didi ko dekhne lagi. Shayad wo ami ki imandari wali baat par vaani didi ka jabab sunna chahti thi. Wahi keerti neha ki is harkat ko gaur se dekh rahi thi.

Use shayad neha ki vaani didi ki imandari par shaq karne wali ye harkat pasand nahi aa rahi thi. Mai bas khamoshi se neha aur keerti ki in harkton ko dekhne me laga hua tha. Wahi vaani didi ne ami ki ye baat sunne ke bad us se kaha.

Vaani didi boli “tu thik kahti hai. Lekin sirf police ko hi nahi, balki har kisi ko apna kaam imandari se karna chahiye. Magar aaj kal aisa hota nahi hai. Log jara se paison ke lalach me apna iman bech dete hai.”

“Rahi meri baat to, maine kabhi apne farz ke sath beimani nahi ki hai. Lekin ek do baar maine bhi jaan bujh kar kuch mujrimo ko apne hath se bach nikalne ka mauka jarur diya hai.”

Hum sab vaani didi aur ami ki baten gaur se sun rahe the. Unki is baat ko sunte hi, ami ne puchha.

Ami boli “lekin kyo didi. Jab aapko pata tha ki, wo mujrim hai to, fir aapne unhe bach kar kyo jaane diya.”

Ami ki ye baat sunkar, vaani didi ne muskurate huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “aisa isliye, kyoki bhale hi wo kanun ke mujrim the. Lekin un ne kabhi insaniyat ko sharmsar nahi kiya tha. Isliye mujhe unhe apne hath se bach nikalne ka mauka dena pada tha.”

“Ab mere aisa karne ki vajah chahe jo bhi rahi ho. Lekin mere in faislon ko kabhi koi sahi nahi kah sakta. Fir bhi mujhe apne kisi bhi faisle ke liye koi pachhtawa nahi hai aur na hi mai unhe galat manti hu.”

“Kyoki jindagi me kuch faisle hume apne dil dimag se nahi, balki apne zamir se lena padte hai. Apne zamir se liye gaye faisle kabhi galat nahi hote hai aur unke liye hume kabhi pachhtana nahi padta hai.”

Vaani didi ne ami ko samjhate samjhate anjane me hi neha ko uske taane dene wali baat ka jabab de diya tha. Vaani didi ka ye jabab sunte hi, keerti ne neha ke taane ka jabab use taane me dete huye kaha.

Keerti boli “tumhe samajh me aaya ki, kya hai chamatkar aur kya hai balatkar, ya fir vaani didi se bol kar, tumhe dikha du hahakar.”

Keerti ki ye baat sunkar, itne sanjida mahol me bhi mere chehre par hansi aa gayi Wahi dusri taraf ami ne jab vaani didi ki ye baat suni to, unko unki baat ke bich me hi tokte huye puchha.

Ami boli “didi, ye zamir kya hota hai.”

Ami ki is baat ko sunkar, keerti ne us par haste huye kaha.

Keerti boli “buddhu, dil ki aawaj ko hi zamir kahte hai.”

Lekin vaani didi ne keerti ki is baat ko kaatte huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “nahi, tum galat kah rahi ho. Dil ki aawaj ko zamir nahi kahte hai. Dil to hume bahkata hai. Jo baat hume achi lagti hai. Hume usi ki taraf kheech kar le jata hai.”

“Zamir humari aatma ki aawaj ko kahte hai aur humari aatma ki aawaj kabhi galat nahi hoti hai. Jo hume batati hai ki, humare liye kya sahi hai aur kya galat hai. Isliye hame hamesha apne zamir ki sunna chahiye.”

“Khair is baare me mai kabhi tumhe fursat se samjhaugi. Abhi meri flight ka samay ho raha hai. Ab mujhe yaha se nikalna chahiye. Warna meri ye flight bhi chhut jayegi.”

Ami boli “lekin didi, abhi tak aapne meri dono baton ka koi faisla nahi kiya hai. Na to aap bhaiya ko apne sath le jaane ko taiyar huyi hai aur na hi aapne abhi tak aniruddha uncle ko maaf kiya hai.”

Ami ki ye baat sunkar, vaani didi kuch sochne lagi aur fir un ne ami ke samne apne hathiyar daal kar, uske sath saudebaji karte huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “acha meri maa, ek baat mai teri maan leti hu aur ek baat tu meri maan le. Mai teri baat maan kar aniruddha ko maaf kar deti hu aur tub hi meri baat maan kar punnu ko mere sath bhejne ki jid chhod de.”

Vaani didi ne to ami ki baat maan kar aniruddha ko maaf kar diya tha. Lekin ami ne unki baat manne ke liye unke samne shart rakhte huye kaha.

Ami boli “thik hai didi, mai aapki baat maan kar bhaiya ko aapke sath bhejne ki jid chhod deti hu. Lekin iske liye aapko meri do sharten manna hogi.”

Ami ki ye baat sunkar vaani didi ne thoda chaukte huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “ye kya majak hai. Maine teri ek baat maani to hai. Ab tu meri ek baat manne ke liye mere samne do shart aur rakh rahi hai. Ye sarasar galat baat hai.”

Magar ami ne apni ye jid nahi chhodi aur apni baat ko dohrate huye kaha.

Ami boli “nahi, yadi aap chahti hai ki, mai bhaiya ko aapko sath bhejne ki apni jid chhod du to, iske liye aapko meri dono sharten manna hi padegi.”

Vaani didi ko ab jaane me deri ho rahi thi. Isliye un ne ami se apna pichha chhudate huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “chal thik hai. Mai teri sharten manne ko taiyar hu. Ab tu jaldi se apni dono sharte bol de. Mujhe sach me ab der ho rahi hai.”

Vaani didi ki ye baat sunte hi, ami ne fauran unke samne apni shart rakhte huye kaha.

Ami boli “meri pahli shart hai ki, aap apni bullet proof jacket pahan kar hi apne kaam par jayegi aur meri is baat ko bilkul bhi halke se nahi legi.”

Ami ki ye baat sunkar vaani didi ke chehre par muskurahat aa gayi. Un ne aage bad kar, pyar se ami ko apne gale se laga liya aur fir uski is baat ki haami bharte huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “chal thik hai. Mujhe teri ye shart manjur hai. Ab jaldi se apni dusri shart bhi bol de.”

Vaani didi ki ye baat sunkar, ami apne gale me hath laga kar kuch talash karne lagi. Lekin jab use wo nahi mila to, usne nimi ki taraf dekh kar use apne pas aane ka ishara kiya.

Nimi ami se thodi hi duri par chhoti maa ke pas khadi thi. Aaj vaani didi ko gusse me dekh kar, wo kuch sahmi huyi aur shant si thi. Warna abhi tak to, usne na jaane kitni baar vaani didi aur ami ki baat ke bich me unhe tok diya hota.

Ami ka ishara pate hi, nimi fauran ami ke pas aa gayi. Ami ne dhire se uske kaan me kuch kaha. Jise sunkar nimi jet viman ki tarah teji se bhagti huyi upar chali gayi. Kuch der bad wo waise hi bhagti huyi niche aa gayi.

Lekin ab uske chehre par uski jani pahchani muskurahat bhi thi. Usne ami ke pas aakar apna hath uske samne kar diya. Uske hath me is samay ami ka golden locket tha.

Ye ek sarp aakar ka locket tha aur ye locket ami ko richa aunty ne bade hi pyar se diya tha. Asal me ami ki kundali me kaal-sarp yog tha. Jiske nidan ke liye richa aunty baar baar chhoti maa se kahti rahti thi.

Lekin chhoti maa chahte huye bhi iske nidan ke liye kuch kar nahi pa rahi thi. Fir ek baar richa aunty ka rimbakeshwar jana ho gaya aur un ne khud hi waha par ami ke kaal-sarp ke nidan ke liye pujan karwaya tha.

Usi samay un ne ami ke liye ye locket bhi liya tha. Ye locket dekhne me bahut sundar tha. Iske alawa is locket me richa aunty ki sharddha aur unka ami ke liye pyar chhupa hua tha.

Isliye ami ise hamesha apne gale me pahne rahti thi. Abhi ye ami ke gale me kyo nahi tha. Ye baat to sirf ami nimi hi janti thi. Lekin is samay iske ami ke gale me na hone se bada sawal ye tha ki, abhi ami ne ise kyo mangaya hai.

Shayad is samay meri tarah baki sabke man me bhi yahi sawal tha. Wahi ami ke hath me uska locket aate hi, usne wo locket vaani didi ki taraf badate huye kaha.

Ami boli “didi, meri dusri shart ye hai ki, aap is locket ko hamesha apne gale me daali rahegi.”

Ami ki ye baat sunkar vaani didi ne chaukte huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “lekin betu, ye to tera locket hai. Richa aunty ne bade pyar se ise teri hifajat aur tarakki ke liye tujhe pahnaya tha. Ise aise kisi ko dena, bilkul bhi sahi nahi hai. Mai ise tujhse nahi le sakti hu.”

Lekin ami ne ek baar fir apni jid par adte huye kaha.

Ami boli “didi, aapne mujhse kaha tha ki, aap meri dono shart manegi. Ab aap apni baat se mukar rahi hai.”

Ami ki baat sunkar, vaani didi ne use samjhate huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “betu, mai kisi baat se nahi mukar rahi hu. Lekin is baat ko tu bhi achi tarah se janti hai ki, richa aunty ne ye locket tujhe kyo diya tha. Fir tu mujhse aisi jid kyo rahi hai.”

Ami boli “didi, richa aunty ne ye mujhe meri hifajat aur tarakki ke liye diya tha. Lekin aaj mujhse jyada aapko iski jarurat hai aur mai kaun sa aapko hamehsa ke liye de rahi hu. Aap jab mumbai se wapas aana to, ye mujhe wapas lauta dena.”

Aakhir me ami ki is jid ke aage bhi vaani didi ko jhukna hi pad gaya. Ami khud apne hathon se vaani didi ko wo locket pahnane lagi. Ye dekh kar keerti ne use chhedte huye kaha.

Keerti boli “haye ri kismat. Mai aur nimi jis locket ko hathiyane ke liye na jaane kitne papad bel chuke hai. Aaj wo locket khud hi chal kar vaani didi ke gale me ja raha hai.”

Keerti ki baat sunkar, hum sab hasne lage. Lekin vaani didi ne ghoor kar keerti ko dekha aur use ami ko na chhedne ka ishara kiya. Vaani didi ko ishara karte dekh kar keerti muskurate huye apne muh par ungli rakh kar khadi ho gayi.

Keerti ki ye harkat dekh kar, vaani didi ke chehre par bhi muskurahat aa gayi. Ami ke hathon se locket pahan lete ke bad, vaani didi ne ami nimi ko apne gale se laga liya.

Lekin keerti ki shararat ki vajah se unke chehre par abhi bhi muskan bani huyi thi. Ami nimi ko thoda dular karne ke bad, wo muskurati huyi keerti ke pas aa gayi. Is samay keerti ke agal bagal mai aur neha khade huye the.

Vaani didi muskurati huyi keerti ke pas aayi aur mere sar par pyar se chapat lagakar, aage bad kar keerti ko apne gale se laga liya. Vaani didi ki ye chapat khakar, mai apne sar ko sahlate huye, unhe keerti se milte huye dekhne laga.

Lekin meri samajh me ye baat nahi aa rahi thi ki, pyar to unko keerti ke upar aaya tha. Fir un ne bevajah mere sar par chapat kyo laga di hai. Yadi ye chapat vaani didi ki jagah kisi aur ne lagayi hoti to, shayad mujhe khushi bhi huyi hoti.

Lekin vaani didi ki to pyar ki chapat khakar bhi chaithi laal ho jati thi aur mai apne sar ko sahlate rahne ke siwa kuch nahi kar pata tha. Lekin ye to mere hisse ki chapat bhi nahi thi.

Mujhe samajh me nahi aa raha tha ki, aaj ye vaani didi kya rahi hai. Pahle jab keerti ke upar gussa aaya to, mujhe peet kar rakh diya tha aur ab keerti ke upar pyar aaya to, uske hisse ki chapat mujhe laga di thi.

Vaani didi ka ye pyar bilkul sher ki sawari karne ke barabar tha. Jaise sher ki sawari karne wale ko kisi se koi khatra nahi rahta hai. Shiway us sher ke, jiski wo sawari kar raha hai.

Bilkul wahi haal vaani didi ke pyar ka bhi tha. Vaani didi ke sath rahne wale ko unke siwa kisi ka koi khatra nahi rahta tha. Lekin is baat ka khatra use hamesha hi bana rahta tha ki, pata nahi wo kab kis baat par naraj ho jaye.

Magar fir haal to unka gussa ami ki vajah se hum sab par shant hi samajh me aa raha tha. Lekin ye sochna shayad meri bhool thi. Un ne keerti se gale milne ke bad bade hi pyar se us se kaha.

Vaani didi boli “punnu ki tarah maine tere liye bhi kuch socha hai. Mai chahti hu ki, tu bhi meri tarah majbut bane. Isliye tu kal hi kisi ache se karate school me jakar apna naam likhwa le.”

Vaani didi ki ye baat sunkar, keerti hairani se unhe dekhne lagi. Ek tarah se vaani didi ne bade hi pyar se keerti ko uske kiye ki saza suna di thi. Lekin neha is baat ko samajh nahi payi aur jor jor se hasne lagi.

Lekin vaani didi ne neha ki is harkat par koi gussa nahi kiya aur muskurate huye uski taraf bad gayi. Un ne neha ko bhi pyar se gale laga liya aur us par bhi apna pyar lutate huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “tum fikar mat karo. Mai mumbai jakar riya ya barkha se kah kar tumhara naam bhi akki sir ki karate class me likhwa dugi.”

Vaani didi ki ye baat sunkar neha fati fati aankhon se vaani didi ko dekhne lagi. Fir usne haklate huye vaani didi se kaha.

Neha boli “lekin didi, aapko takleef karne ki kya jarurat hai. Mai khud hi mumbai jaane ke bad kisi achi si karate class me apna naam likhwa lugi.”

Lekin vaani didi ne neha ki baat katte huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “isme takleef kaisi, keerti ki tarah tum bhi meri bahan hi ho aur tumhare liye bhi mera koi farz banta hai. Tumko kisi bhi aise waise karate class me jaane ki koi jarurat nahi hai. Tum akki sir ki class me hi jana.”

Vaani didi ki ye baat sunkar, neha kuch jyada hi pareshan ho gayi thi. Usne vaani didi ko samjhane ki koshish karte huye kaha.

Neha boli “lekin didi, maine suna hai ki, aaj kal akki sir ke pas bilkul samay nahi rahta hai. Wo aaj kal kisi ko kuch sikhate hi nahi hai. Isliye unke pas jaane ka koi matlab hi nahi hai.”

Lekin vaani didi ne neha ki is baat ko bhi kaatte huye kaha.

Vaani didi boli “tum iski fikar karne ki jarurat nahi hai. Mai akki sir se bolugi to, wo tumhe sikhane ke liye kabhi mana nahi karege aur mere khayal se sirf mumbai hi nahi, pure india me akki sir se behtar koi nahi hai.”

Vaani didi ki ye baat sunkar, neha ke to pasine chhut gaye. Lekin ab us se kuch bhi kahte nahi bana. Neha se milne ke bad, vaani didi chhoti maa ke pas aa gayi aur unse gale milne lagi.

Iske bad un ne mujhe bhi apne gale se lagate huye kuch baten samjhayi. Fir wo aniruddha se chalne ke liye kahne lagi. Jiske bad hum sab vaani didi ke sath unko chhodne bahar aa gaye.

Vaani didi ek baar fir sabse mili aur iske bad, wo gaadi me baith kar, aniruddha ke sath airport ke liye nikal gayi. Vaani didi ke jaane ke bad hum sab ghar ke andar aa gaye. Ab raat ke 11:30 baj chuke the.

Isliye chhoti maa hum sabse sone jaane ko kahne lagi. Kal neha chanda mausi ke kamre me ruki huyi thi. Lekin aaj chanda mausi ghar aa gayi thi aur apne kamre me hi aaram kar rahi thi. Ye dekh kar chhoti maa ne neha se kaha.

Chhoti maa boli “neha beta, tum kal chanda mausi ke kamre me ruki thi. Lekin aaj mausi aa gayi hai aur apne kamre me hi aaram kar rahi hai. Aise me tumhara unke sath rukna sahi nahi hoga.”

“Unke bagal me ek kamra hai. Wo punnu ke bachpan ka kamra hai. Tum chaho to, us kamre me so sakti ho ya fir upar ami nimi ya keerti ke sath bhi so sakti ho. Tumhe jaha sahi lage, tum waha so jana.”

Itna kah kar chhoti maa keerti ko neha ke baare me jata kar apne kamre me chali gayi. Asal me chhoti maa aur chanda mausi dono ki hi aadat subah jaldi uthne ki thi. Isliye wo raat ko jara jaldi hi so jaya karti thi.

Chhoti maa ke neha ke upar keerti ke pas so jaane ki baat sunkar mai thoda soch me pad gaya. Kyoki yadi neha keerti ke pas soti to, fir keerti ke raat ko mere pas aane ki ummid kam hi thi.

Jabki aaj keerti ki tabiyat sahi thi aur vaani didi bhi ghar me nahi thi. Aise me yadi keerti chahti to, wo mere pas bhi so sakti thi. Lekin chhoti maa ne neha ke keerti ke sath sone ki baat kah kar mere saare armano par pani fer diya tha.

Lekin abhi neha ka koi jabab na milne ki vajah se abhi bhi ummid ki ek kiran baki thi. Kyoki uske pas sone ke liye teen vikalp maujud the. Jinme se do mere hit me hi the.

Pahla to, wo niche mere bachpan wale kamre me hi so sakti thi aur dusra wo ami nimi ke sath unke kamre me bhi so sakti thi. Uske in dono jagah me se kisi bhi jagah sone par mujhe koi pareshani nahi thi.

Lekin yadi wo keerti ke sath sone ki baat par haami bharti hai to, ye jarur mere liye pareshani wali baat thi. Isliye mai badi becheni se neha ke is baat ka jabab dene ka intejar kar raha tha.

Keerti bhi chhoti maa ki is baat ko sunne ke bad kuch pareshan si lag rahi thi. Kyoki wo chahte huye bhi neha ko apne pas sone ke liye mana nahi kar sakti thi. Lekin fir na jaane kya soch kar usne ami nimi se kaha.

Keerti boli “tum dono abhi tak yahi par kyo khadi ho. Jao aur jakar so jao.”

Keerti ki is baat ko sunkar ami ne kaha.

Ami boli “didi, hum log to neha didi ke jabab ka intejar kar rahe hai. Taki wo yadi humare sath sone ko taiyar ho to, hum unhe apne kamre me le jaye.”

Ami ki baat sunkar, neha muskura kar rah gayi. Lekin jab maine ami ke bolne ke bad nimi ko kuch bhi bolte nahi dekha to, mujhe is baat ki bahut jyada kami akharne lagi.

Aamtaur par aisa hota nahi tha. Ami ke kuch bhi bolte hi, nimi khud ko ami se aage dikhane ke liye, us se bhi jyada bad chad kar bol diya karti thi. Jise sunkar sab hasne lagte the.

Nimi ki ye baten bhale hi fijul aur besir pair ki baten hoti thi. Lekin fir bhi uski ye baten sabka dil chura liya karti thi. Isliye is samay mujhe ami se jyada nimi ke chhakke lagane ka intejar tha.

Taki uski baat sunkar, neha khushi khushi unke kamre me sone ke liye taiyar ho jaye. Nimi se wahi chhakka padwane ke liye maine usko uksate huye kaha.

Mai bola “nimmo, neha yadi tere kamre me soyegi to, tu use pareshan to nahi karegi na.”

Mera itna kahna tha ki, nimi ki baton ki frontier mail chal nikli. Usne meri baat sunkar fauran apni safayi dete huye kaha.

Nimi boli “nahi bhaiya, mai neha didi ko bilkul bhi pareshan nahi karugi. Maine to neha didi ke sone ke liye bahut saari jagah bacha kar rakhi hai. Taki wo humare kamre me aaram se so sake.”

Nimi ka itna kahna tha ki, neha ne khilkhila kar hanste huye kaha.

Neha boli “nimi, abhi tu apne kamre me gayi hi kaha hai. Fir tune mere sone ke liye jagah kaise bacha kar rakh li.”

Neha ki is baat par nimi ne apni safayi dete huye kaha.

Nimi boli “didi, wo maine soch liya tha ki, mai aapke aur ami didi ke bich me sougi to, meri wali jagah aapke liye bach gayi na.”

Nimi ki baat sunkar, keerti ne bhi hanste huye kaha.

Keerti boli “lo neha, nimi ne apne kamre me tumhare sone ka pura intejam kar ke rakha hai. Ab use bata bhi do ki, tum kaha sone wali ho.”

Keerti ki is baat ko sunkar, neha ne bhi muskurate huye kaha.

Neha boli “ab jab nimi ne mere sone ke liye jagah bacha kar rakhi hai to, fir mai bhala kahi aur kaise so sakti hu. Mai ami nimi ke sath hi sougi.”

Neha ka ye jabab sunkar, maine shukun ki saans li. Wahi keerti ne neha ki baat sunne ke bad ami nimi se kaha.

Keerti boli “ab tum dono ne sun liya na ki, neha tumhare kamre me sone wali hai. Ab tum log apne kamre me jao. Hum abhi aate hai.”

Keerti ki baat sunkar ami nimi dono humare pas se chali gayi. Unke jaane ke bad keerti ne mujhse kaha.

Keerti boli “ab tum yaha kya kar rahe ho. Tum bhi jakar apne kal juhi didi ki shadi me jaane ki taiyari kar lo.”

Mera kaam to nimi bana kar ja chuki thi. Ab waise bhi mera waha rukna bekar hi tha. Isliye mai keerti ki baat sunkar apne kamre me aa gaya. Lekin keerti ne mujhe juhi didi ki shadi ki baat yaad dila kar gahri soch me daal diya tha.

Kamre me aakar maine night suit pahna aur fir let kar, aankh band karke juhi didi ke baare me sochne laga. Juhi didi ki shadi ke baare me sunkar, mujhe bahut bada jhatka laga tha.

Ye jhatka kisi bhi tarah se us jhatke se kam nahi tha. Jo mujhe keerti ki shadi pakki hone wali baat ko sunkar laga tha. Lekin tab keerti ki shadi wali baat jhuth nikal gayi thi.

Magar yaha juhi didi ki shadi wali baat ke jhuth nikalne ki koi ummid nahi thi. Kyoki kal isme shamil hone ke liye hum sab bhi jaane wale the. Mujhe to juhi didi ki shadi ki baat sunkar khush hona chahiye tha.

Lekin mai chahte huye bhi is baat se khush nahi ho pa raha tha. Juhi didi mere liye kya thi. Ye to mai khud bhi nahi janta tha. Magar itna jarur janta tha ki, un ne mujhe beshumar pyar diya tha.

Keerti se to meri mulakat kabhi kabhi hi hoti thi. Lekin juhi didi se to meri lambe samay tak roj hi mulakat hoti rahi thi. Kyoki pichhle saal tak wo mere hi school me thi.

Wo bhale hi mujhse do class aage thi. Lekin jis din se chhoti maa ne unhe mujhse milaya tha. Us din se wo roj school me mujhse mila karti thi. School me unki bahut si saheliyan thi.

Fir bhi wo lunch mere aur mehul ke sath hi kiya karti thi. Mehul ki tarah wo bhi aksar mere liye kuch na kuch lekar aaya karti thi. Jis vajah se humari dosti aur bhi jyada majbut ho gayi thi.

Keerti ki baji ki tarah juhi didi se bhi bilkul nahi banti thi. Fir bhi juhi didi keerti ke liye apne man me bilkul bhi mail nahi rakhti thi. Wo keerti se hamesha hans kar hi mila karti thi.

Juhi didi to bachpan se hi sabke samne bas ek hi baat ratti huyi aayi thi ki, wo badi hokar mujhse hi shadi karegi. Unki is baat ko lekar sabhi unka bahut majak udaya karte the.

Lekin mai is baat me hamesha unka hi sath deta tha aur kahta tha ki, mai bhi bada hokar juhi didi se hi shadi karuga. Yadi wo sach me bhi kabhi mere samne shadi ki baat rakhti to, mujhe bina soche samjhe iske liye haan hi kahna tha.

Magar aaj jab sach me hi wo kisi ke sath shadi karne ke liye ja rahi thi to, un ne mujhe hi is baat ki khabar dene ke layak nahi samjha tha. Mujhe to ab bhi yakin nahi aa raha tha ki, juhi didi mere sath aisa kar sakti hai.

Juhi didi ne mujhe itna jyada pyar diya tha ki, aaj unka ye parayapan mujhse sahan nahi ho raha tha aur mujhe bahut dard ho raha tha. Unki is baat ko soch soch kar mera dil rone ke liye kar raha tha.

Abhi mai juhi didi ki in baton me khoya hua tha ki, tabhi kamre ka darwaja khulne ki aawaj sunkar mai chaukte huye, apni aankh khol kar dekhne laga. Mere samne keerti aur neha khadi thi.

Mujhe is tarah se chaukte dekh kar, neha khilkhila kar hasne lagi. Wahi keerti ne mujhe kisi gahri soch me gum sa dekha to, usne na jaane kya soch kar ek shayari bolte huye kaha.

Keerti boli “Wo Raat Bhi Bade Dard Sitam Ki Raat Hogi.​
Jis Din Rukhsat Teri Barat Hogi.​
Ye Soch Kar Nind Se Jaag Jate Hai Hum.​
Kisi Gair Ki Bahon Me Meri Saari Kaynat Hogi.”​
