jindagee kayi baar aise ajeeb mod letee hai ki sach jhooth aur jhooth sach lagane lagata hai.. bade se bada aastik naastik aur bade se bada naastik aastik hone ko majaboor ho jaata hai.. sirf yahee kyoon, kuchchh aise haadase bhee jindagee mein ghat jaate hai ki aakhir tak hamen samajh nahee aata ki vo sab kaise hua, kyoon hua. sach koee nahee jaan paata.. ki aakhir vo sab kisee pretaatma ka kiya dhara hai, yaabhagavaan ka chamatkaar hai ya phir kisee apane kee saazish... ham sirf kalpana hee karate rahate hain aur aakhir tak sochate rahate hain ki aisa hamaare saath hee kyoon hua? kisee aur ke saath kyoon nahee.. haalaat tab aur bigad jaate hain jab ham vo haadase kisee ke saath baant bhee nahee paate.. kyoonkee log visvaas nahee karenge.. aur hamen akela hee nikalana padata hai, apanee anjaan manzil kee taraph.. man mein uth rahe utsukata ke agyaat bhanvar ke pataakshep kee khaatir....
kuchchh aisa hee rohan ke saath kahaanee mein hua.. hamesha apanee mastee mein hee mast rahane vaala ek karodapati baap ka beta achaanak apane aapako gaharee aasamanajhaas mein ghira mahasoos karata hai jab koee anjaan sundaree usake sapanon mein aakar usako pyaar kee duhaee dekar apane paas bulaatee hai.. aur jab ye silasila har roz ka ban jaata hai to apanee bigadatee manodasha kee vajah se majaboor hokar nikalana hee padata hai.. usakee talaash mein.. usake batae aadhe adhoore raaste par.. ladakee usako aakhirakaar milatee bhee hai, par tab tak usako ahasaas ho chuka hota hai ki vo ladakee koee aur hai.. aur phir se majabooran usakee talaash shuroo hotee hai, ek anadekhee anjaanee ladakee ke lie.. jo na jaane kaisee hai...
is anjaanee dagar par chala rohan jaane kitanee hee baar hataash hokar usake sapane mein aane vaalee ladakee se savaal karata hai," main visvaash kyoon karoon?" .. to usakee chaahat mein tadap rahee ladakee ka hamesha ek hee javaab hota hai:
"murde kabhee jhooth nahee bolate "
neeche mahafil jam chukee thee.. kuchchh der ravi ka intajaar karane ke baad aman ne vaheen prograam jama liya.. gilaason ko khadakhadaate ab kareeb aadha ghanta ho chuka tha.. sharaab ke nashe mein rohan vo sab kuchchh bolane laga tha jisako bataane mein ab tak vo hichak raha tha...
"oh teree.. phir kya hua?" aman jigayaasoo hokar aage jhuk gaya...
"chhchodo yaar.. kyoon taim khota kar rahe ho.. aai dont bileev in ol deez phoolish things.. ek sapane ko lekar itana seereeyas aur emoshanal hone kee zaroorat nahee hai.. " shekhar sooparastishas kism kee baaton mein visvaash nahee kar pa raha tha...
"pooree baat to sun le damaroo... rohan ne shekhar ko daanta aur kahaanee sunaane laga....
"kaun damaroo.. main.. ha ha ha...!" shekhar zor zor se hansane laga...," damaroo.. ha ha ha!"
"tujhe nahee sunni na.. chal.. jaakar saamane baith.. aur apana munh band rakh.. main maanata hoon.. aur mujhe sunni hain..." aman aakar saamane vaale sophe par shekhar aur rohan ke beech mein phans gaya.. shekhar utha aur badabadaata hua saamane chala gaya," damaroo.. ha ha ha!"
baaten abhee chal hee rahee thee kee muskuraate hue ravi ne kamare mein pravesh kiya..," achchchha.. akele akele..!"
shekhar usake aate hee khada ho gaya," saale damaroo! akele akele too phod ke aaya hai ya ham.. ? baat karata hai...
"bhaee too mere ko damaroo kaise bol raha hai.. vo to rohan bolata hai..." ravi ne usake paas baithate hue kaha...
"kyoonkee mere andar rohan ka bhoot ghus aaya hai.. he he ha ha ho ho!" shekhar ne bhooton vaalee baat ka mazaak bana liya....
"chup kar oye jaileel insaan.. aisee baaton ko mazaak mein nahee lete.. kisee ke saath bhee kuchchh bhee ho sakata hai..." aman ne pyaar se usako dutakaara...
"kis ke saath kya ho gaya bhaee? mujhe bhee to bata do.." ravi ne apana gilaas uthaaya aur sabake saath chiyars kiya...
"vo baat baad mein shuroo se shuroo karenge.. ab sabako seereeyas hokar sunni hain.. pahale too bata.. dee bhee ya nahee.. mujhe to usakee cheekh sunakar aisa laga jaise too apana haath mein pakade usake pichhe daud raha hai.. aur vo bachane k lie chillaatee huee kamare mein idhar udhar bhaag rahee hai...ha ha ha.. saalee ne nakhare bahut kie the pahale din... main aisee nahee hoon.. main vaisee nahee hoon.. par daalane ke baad pata laga vo to pakee pakaee hai..." aman ne apana anubhav sunaaya....

" nahee yaar.. vo to saana kee cheekh thee... usakee pahalee baar phatee hai na aaj!" ravi ne apanee baat bhee pooree nahee kee thee ki aman ne gilaas rakha aur uchchhal kar khada ho gaya..," toone saana kee maar lee????"
"haan.. kuchchh galat ho gaya kya?" ravi ne mara sa munh banaakar kaha...
"galat kya yaar..? ye to kamaal ho gaya.. saalee ko teen baar bula chuka hoon.. salama ke haathon.. par vo to haath hee nahee lagaane detee thee yaar.. toone kiya kaise.. ab to zor kee paartee honee chaahie yaar.. zor kee.. toone mera kaam aasaan kar diya...!" aman josh mein poora paig ek saath pee gaya...
"vo kaise? " ravi kee samajh mein nahee aaee baat....
"kya batau yaar.. tujhe to pata hoga.. vo aur salama dono sagee behan hain..!"
aman ko ravi ne beech mein hee tok diya," kya? sagee behan hain.. ?"
"haan.. chal chhchod yaar.. lambee kahaanee hai.. usake baare mein baad mein baat karenge... pahale rohan bhaee kee sunate hain.. chal bhaee rohan.. ab sab ikatthe ho gaye hain.. shuroo se shuroo karake aakhir tak suna de.. pahale bol raha hoon shekhar.. beech mein nahee bolega.. dekh le nahee to...!" aman shekhar ko chetaavanee see dete hue bola..
"nahee boloonga yaar... chalo soonao!" kahakar shekhar bhee rohan kee aur dekhane laga....
rohan ne kahaanee sunanee shuroo kar dee.....
