8 June 1998, samay- 16:30, sthaan- Arjun ka Nanihaal
"Sumitra, Anita bitiya ko peehar se aate he kaam par laga diya? Thoda garmi ka bhi dhyaan rakhna jaruri hai jab ye aur Sangita peit se hai. Sangita ka toh jee mitlaane wala samay nikal gaya par dekh jara iski dasha.. Anita beti tum abhi raosi me nahi jaaogi. Masale, tadke ityaadi se mann jyada ghabrane lagta hai aur kaam karne ke liye Mamta Pooja ke sath Bindiya bhi hai. Abhi Somya bhi kar leti hai jitne college ki chuttiyan hai.", Yaha aangan ke chhayadar hisse me Sunanda ji apni jethani Anjana devi ke ghutno par khaas teil ki maalish karne ke baad hath dho kar wapis lauti toh Mamta bahu ne ek aur charpaayi laga di. Aksar yaha chai ka yahi waqt rehta tha aur somwar ko upwaas rakhne wali Anjana devi yahi ek chai ki pyali leti thi poore din me. Ab yaha baat Anita matlab ghar ki sabse choti bahu aur Arjun ki sabse choti maami ki ho rahi thi jo chai ki tray liye yaha aayi toh gora chehra garmi me gulaabi aur kuch pareshaan sa dikha. Cooler ki hawa ke saamne usko baithate hue Sunanda ji ke sawaal ab apni devrani se the jo swayam Anita ko dapat rahi thi.
"Ye meri sune toh kuch kahu didi. Jaanti ho aajkal saleti aur kache chaawal tak khaane lagi hai ye. Upar se iska bachpana na khatam ho raha. Chhat par Mamta aur Sangita ke sath paani ki holi khel rahi thi jab aap log mandir gayi thi. Ye bhaag daud aur masti aise samay me bhala theek hai kya? Aur wo Somya bhi shamil thi inke sath jisko aap kaam me hath batane ka bol rahi hai. Bindiya ke paanv bhari hai par usko jyada pareshani na hui thi jitni Sangita ko hui. Ab aap he samjhao inhe, mere bas ka nahi hai.", Anita toh sar jhukaye baithi thi apni saas ki baatein sunn kar par Anjana ji ke sath Sunanda ji ye sab sunti muskurane lagi.
"Haan tu tera bhool gayi Sumitra.. Chalk-barti toh tune bhi daba ke khaai.. Apna bhool jaate hai aur shiksha dene lagte hai jab wahi sab agli peedhi dohrati dikhe. Ja Anita beta, Mamta aur Sangita ke paas baith. Aur ab rasoighar me tabhi kadam rakhna hai jab kaha jaaye. Waise jyada pareshani toh nahi ho rahi? Dekh hamare liye tu sabse choti beti hai hamari aur betiyan maa se nirbhik baat karti hai.", Yaha Anjana ji ne is charcha ko apne jimme lete hue ghar ki badi hone ka farz dikhaya. Sunanda ji toh Sumitra ko chhed rahi thi chalk-barti wali baat par jo jhemp gayi jab apni baari ki yaad dilwai gayi.
"Wo akele me neend nahi aati ab mummy ji. Subah ghabrahat si hone lagti hai aur fir paani peene se bhi ubaak. Bhaag daud karna atcha lagta hai kyonki uske baad araam milta hai. Haan dhuan aur chulhe ke paas jee jyada michlata hai. Pata nahi ye sab abhi kyun hone laga?"
"Hahaha.. ab maa bann ne ke shuruaati lakshan toh aayenge ya nahi? Pehli baar me toh Pooja ki haalat kahi jyada kharaab thi. Aadat toh thi nahi kaam karne ki aur Sumitra-Sunanda ne usko kabhi rasoi tak jaane na diya tha. Aakhir samay me poore ke mahine maine he us se farsh par pauche lagwaye the. Kasrat karwane ke liye alag teacher rakhwaya tha uske samay. Somya ke paida hone se pehle he dard ke maare 3 baar haspataal ke chakkar lagwa diye the us naajuk laadli ne. Tu toh pehle se saksham hai aur chalti firti bhi bahot hai. Khaane ka atcha dhyaan rakh aur jab bhi jee machle toh tere liye aam aur nimbu ka achaar bana kar rakha hai. Chakh liya kar bajaye ye saleti barti khaane ke. Kailash se kahungi ki ab wo samay se ghar lauta kare aur tere kamre me he soye. Ja ab tu apni behno ke paas baith, paanv abhi se soojne lage toh aage jyada dikkat hogi.", Yaha anjaane he Sunanda ji ke jehan me Rekha ka dhyaan ho aaya aur Anita ke jaate he unhone apni badi behan samaan Anjana si ye baat saanjhi ki.
"Didi jab Rekha pehli baar maa bani thi tab toh usko ye ehsaas tak nahi hua tha ke wo 7 mahine paar bhi kar chuki hai. Na uska kabhi mann ghabraya tha aur na aise jee machalta tha. Prasav peeda tak na hui thi jab Komal ko paida kiya. Fir Ritu ke samay usko doodh bhi kam bana aur ghabrahat ke sath prasav me kathinaayi bhi hui. Aap samajh rahi hai na main kya kehna chahti hu?", Ab Sumitra ji ke chehre par bhi hansi laut chuki thi jaise unhe bhi wo samay bhali bhanti dhyaan ho.
"Didi, aap sabse kathin samay bhool rahi hai shayad. Kaushalya didi ki kalaai chatka di thi Rekha ne jab Munna (Arjun) ko janam de rahi thi Rekha. Himmat wali hai Kaushalya didi bhi jinhone apni parwaah na karte hue dusre hath se Rekha ka chehra thaame rakha tha. Aur ye meri bhi samajh na aaya ke jab pehle 2 bache paida kar chuki thi fir teesre me itni pareshani kyun? Badi didi, aap samjhayengi kuch is baare me?", Sumitra ne yaha Anjana ji ko anubhav aur gyaan pesh karne ka matt rakha toh Sunanda ji ki bhi yahi sthiti thi.
"Chal ab jara ye bata ki Ritu ke samay Rekha bitiya ka rehan sehan kaisa tha.? Komal ke samay toh jyadatar wo pariksha ke tyaari karti rehti thi aur sharir toh uska hamesha se chust raha.. Sunanda se bhi jyada kahungi is maamle me toh. Ye toh rakh ke hath lagati thi toh mujhe he na atcha lagta tha isliye is se kaam karwane ki bajaye 2-2 mehri rakhna jyada bhala laga aur wahi maine galti kar di. Rekha ka sab sahi tha Ritu ke samay lekin ek toh wo ladki paida bhi sadhe 9 mahine par hui aur wajan bhi Komal se poora ek kilo jyada tha uska. Saari khuraak toh peit me Ritu he le gayi, phir doodh kaha se utarta Rekha ke? Jo thoda bahot banta bhi tha toh Ritu khoon nikaal deti thi doodh band hone par. Bas uske janam ke baad Rekha ne bas kar diya tha ke aur aulaad chahiye he nahi. Shankar ko bhi Kaushalya ne samjha diya tha ke ab bas sabar rakhe aur 2 bache bahot hai. Ab Rekha dubli hone ke sath ek baar fir waise dikhne lagi jaise 16 baras ki lagti thi. Mard aksar din me kiye vaade raat me bhula baithte hai.. Rekha na dil se tayaar thi aur na sharir uska utna saksham tha. Ritu uddand thi jo kahi bhi maa ka pallu khinchne lagti thi aur jab pehle se ek bacha goad me ho aur dusra peit me aa jaaye toh sthiti bhayanak he hoti hai Sumitra. Bata kitna farak hai Ritu aur Munna ke beech?", Sab byora dene ke baad jab Anjana ji ne aakhir me dono bhai behano ke beech ka antar poocha toh Sumitra devi ungliyon par ganana karne lagi aur Sunanda ji ne jhatt se jawaab de dala.
"Ek saal 8 mahine 27 din ka farak hai dono me. Ritu July ki pehli tareekh ko paida hui thi aur munna april ki 4 ko."
"Aur ye munna samay se pehle bhale janma par 7-8 mahine peit me raha toh? Matlab Ritu ek baras ki he hui na jab Rekha dobara peit se ho gayi. Tab bhi agle 6 mahine us ladki ne apni maa ko na chhoda toh sharir ko taqat milna toh dur ulta khuraak bhi beasar rahi. Yahi toh badi wajah thi ki Munna janma bhi toh jiwan-mrityu ke beech jhoolta hua. Doctor ne toh mara ghoshit kar diya tha usko aur Rekha hosh me he na thi. Bhala ho Satish ka jo samay gawaye bina us navjaat ko utha le bhaga. 3 din nalki (oxygen) lagi rahi aur dekhne tak na diya tha kisi ko. Aur karishma bhi hua jo Ritu ne apni maa ko jhatt chhod diya jiske sath apni aulaad ko zindagi ke liye joojhte dekh Rekha ke jism me doodh bhi aisa utra ki seene bheegne lagta tha agar bacha hatati. Bhale he munna ek samay bojh sa raha uske peit me par mamta toh asliyat me uske paida hone se jagi Rekha me. kasht, sangarsh aur niyati ka sab sehan karne ke baad jo naseeb hua usne Rekha ko he ujjwal banaya. Heere se chamakti hai jabki uske sath ki ya kam-umar mahilayen 3-3 vyask aulaad ke baad mooh se paanv tak phail jaati hai. Jisne duniya me aana hai na usko na hum rok sakte hai aur na bura chahne wala koyi. Yahi Arjun 25 baras pehle najar padta toh maine Kaushalya ki bhi na sunn ni thi apni Rekha ke liye aur byaah deti main uske sath. Kundan ka raub aur aakarshan khaas tha apne samay lekin ye toh neera dev janma hai Rekha ne. Kyun Sunanda, tum tulna nahi karti kya jab wo saamne hota hai?", Anjana devi ne dard bhare samay ke baad ye chutki li jo unke dil ka kehna he tha apne eklaute naati ke prati.. in teeno ka wahi toh ek naati tha bhale he Sanjiv ko bhi utna he prem mila ho yaha par Rekha aur Arjun is pariwar me hamesha se laadle bache rahe the, alag alag peedhi ke bawjood.
"Ab meri umar gayi didi tulna vulna karne ki. Par jaisa aapne kaha na waise he main bhi soch baithi thi. Shankar ek aadarsh aur bahot he kaabil insaan hai jo Rekha ke samkaksh ya behtar he kehna chahiye us samay ke hisaab se. Ek pita ke taur bhi sajag aur putra roop toh aap bhi jaanti ho kaisa hai. Phir beti kabhi bhi maa baap ke liye badi nahi hoti beshak hum damaad ko paripakva aur umar daraaj hote paate hai. Shankar bhi umar ke sath nikhra aur jyada kaabil bhi parantu ye Rekha ko jaane kaunsa nuskha de baithi Kaushalya didi jo iski gaadi ulti disha me jaati lagne lagi pichle 2-3 baras me.", Sunanda ji ek pal ke liye chup hui par Anjana devi dwara bolne ka ishara karne par apne dil ki bachi khuchi kehna he thik samjha.
"Ab jab pehli baar Arjun yaha aaya tha itne baras baad toh laga he nahi ki wo uski maa hai aur Arjun mera naati. Tab bhi chalo mann maan gaya ki is naati ko barso baad dekh rahi hu aur uske sath Rekha bhi yaha swatantra lauti hai lekin ab kuch din rahi na main Rekha ke sath toh mujhe ek pal bhi nahi laga ke wo 24 baras se vivaahit rahi hai ya 44 baras ki hai. Arjun se jyada damak aur taajgi ka ehsaas mujhe Rekha me mehsoos hua. Aur kamaal ka taalmel hai dono maa beti me.. Lagta toh yahi tha ke Ritu Komal jaisi nahi hai par wo bhi utni chanchal nahi jaisi lagti thi. Arjun abhi aur nikhrega toh jaane wo kaisa lagega? Tulna toh apne aap he hone lagti hai jab wo Rekha ke saamne baitha ho ya fir Ritu apne bhai ke sath dikhaai de. Mujhe nahi lagta ki Pandit ji ya khud Shankar apni is laadli ke liye uske samkaksh var dhoond paayenge. Arjun ke liye toh beshak chunaav andhere me he sateek teer jaisa laga. Preeti samanya nahi hai aur khoobsurat hone ke sath majboot bhi lagti hai par fir tulna ho he jaati hai uske aur Ritu ke beech. Bhartiya hote hue bhi Ritu kahi us se kam nahi aur aapas me itni banti hai un dono ki waha basantbagh me bhi ghanto dono phone par lagi rehti thi. Bhagwan he bachaye ab Pandit ji ko toh. Apne palle se Rekha gayi toh atcha hua. Unke yaha toh ab 2-2 Rekha ke aks hone ke sath baaki har bachi khaas hai. Paanv ghisenge sabke jab betiyon ke liye dulhe dhundne padenge.", Charcha ke samay chai toh samapt ho chuki thi aur yaha Sunanda ji bhi uthi jab Bindiya ki awaaj sunaai di bahar aangan se. Arjun ke kuch raaj toh unke bhi seene me dafan the aur yaha kahi na kahi Sunanda ji ke mann me bhi tufaan umad raha tha jab beti aur naati ki tulna kar gayi. Udhar Rajesh ke kamre me dhule kapdo ko sametne ke sath Mamta, Anita aur Sangita ki koyi majedar charcha chal rahi thi.
"Ab toh tere sath sath is Anita ko bhi aakhir sahi injection lag he gaya Sangita. Dekh kitni chehak rahi hai jab se wapis lauti hai.", Mamta thi bhi utni he hansmukh aur aisa shayad he koyi ho jo is mahila ki prashansa na karta ho milansaar pravarti aur har vyakti ke sath uchit vyavahaar ki wajah se. Yaha sirf Mamta ki taraf he chai thi aur baaki dono ke liye doodh.
"Kadam toh isne he uthaya tha na didi nahi toh mera bhi jiwan poora na hota. Maa bata rahi thi ki jab isko pata laga toh ye bawli he ho uthi waha ghar pe. Abhi toh 10 din aur rukna tha isne jaisa bata kar gayi thi lekin dekho jara isko. Pata laga nahi ki daud aayi idhar.", Anita ab jhijhakti hui aapas me ungliyan uljhane lagi apni badi behan ki baat sunte hue. Mamta bhi sab dekhti muskuraye ja rahi thi.
"Isne bataya nahi phir apne bache ke hone wale papa ko? Aakhir usko bhi toh khabar honi chahiye na ki jokhim lena vyarth na gaya. Waise kahi ye Anita jyada maje ke chakkar me toh pehle peit se na hui? Kaha toh sirf ye sab maa bann ne ke liye ho raha tha aur jo maine dekha usme ye uski premika jyada jaan padd rahi thi udhar khet wale kamre pe.", Ab Arjun ka naam lena jaise mana tha inhe aur Mamta ne jab wo vaakiya yaad dilwaya jaha par Sangita aur Anita ko eksath Arjun ne santusht kiya tha toh Anita ke sath Sangita ke bhi gaal gulaabi hone lage. Jism se toh wo 25-27 ki dono behne abhi bhi college ke pratham varsh ki yuvtiyan jyada lagti thi, madhyam akaar ke seene ke sath waise he prishthbhaag wali. Lambaai ausat se adhik thi par waisi he kamsin chharhari jinke vivaah me abhi samay ho.
"Wo toh yahi jaane ke iski kya marji thi didi. Mera ho gaya aur usne bhi dobara aisi koyi harkat nahi ki jis se lage ki wo asli rishtey ki kadar nahi karta. Shaadi ke samay usne paanv chhuye the jaise aapke aur Pooja didi ke. Haan Anita uske sath apne kamre me rahi hai, soyi hai aur jitna maine dekha ye waisi sewa toh Kailash ji ki bhi nahi karti jitni uski kari. Ab khushkhabri di ya nahi ye toh mujhe bhi nahi bataya isne. Bol Anita, didi ke saamne tujhe fikar karne ki jarurat nahi hai. Jo tere mann ki hai wo saaf keh de.", Sangita ne toh swikaar kar liya tha ke Arjun aur uske beech sambandh sirf aulaad ki wajah se band kamre me bane aur wo wahi tak reh gaye jinka aane wale samay me koyi wajood nahi. Aur aisa karne ki ek badi wajah thi Sunanda ji, jinhone swayam kaha tha ki asli rishtey ko mat bhool baithna jab uddeshya poora ho chuka hai.
"Ghar se thodi na khabar kar sakti thi didi. Pati patni wala rishta yaha tha he kab? Ghar me pyaar toh sabka mila par beti aur behan wala. Jiske sath rishta laanghne ka vichaar diya gaya main toh us se kabhi mili tak nahi thi. Jab mil gayi toh siwaye pyaar aur parwaah ke kuch yaad he na raha. Didi apna mann maar sakti hai kyonki ye aadarsh bahu aur beti hai. Mere bas ka nahi hai ab aur maine toh badi mummy (Sunanda ji) ko saaf keh diya tha ke wo idhar aaye toh mere kamre me ruk sakte hai. Ek do teen chaar.. ab ginti karke fir bhula du par jo is duniya me aayega wo bhool sakti hu kya main? Rishta kehne ko maami bhanje ka hai par na toh main utni badi hu aur na mujhe ban na hai. Komal ko saheli kahu ya bhanji? Mummy ne gussa nahi kiya bas yahi bola ki 'tum samajhdar ho aur dhyaan rakhna'.", Sangita hairaani se apni choti behan ki kahi baatein sunn rahi thi aur Mamta ke chehre par chamak ke sath ek kutil muskaan jo Anita ki bahaduri par thi.
"Isko bolte hai dil-lagi Sangita pyaari. Tumne hathiyar daal diye aur wajah bhi sahi hai lekin apni ye chutki tumse toh kahi aage nikli. Bolo mummy ji ko he chup karwa diya isne toh. Hahaha.. Waise uske saamne tum dono he chhui-mooyi si lagti ho. Thoda dhyaan rakhna Anita aur khaas kar jab Rekha didi yahi ho. Unke saamne sabar se kaam lena jo main jaanti hu ki mushkil kaam hai. Aakhir tumhe ladki se aurat banane wala unka he beta hai. Bas didi ko dukh na pahuche kyonki unke liye tum choti bhabhi toh kabhi thi he nahi.. Komal ki tarah beti he maanti hai wo tumhe. Aur meri sabse pakki saheli hai wo.", Mamta swayam ke anischitkalin antardwand me fansi thi Arjun aur Pooja ki wajah se. Yaha Anita ke kaboolname ne jaise usko he jhinjhod kar aur duvidha me daal diya. Ab dusro ko sabar ka paath sikhlane wali Mamta yahi sabar barkaraar rakh paati hai ya uske kadam bhi wo rekha laanghenge jinki duhaai abhi toh wo swayam de rahi thi.

"Atchi lag rahi hai aap. Waise pehle pata hota toh hum sath he aa jaate na aunty?", Car jab Sangwan ji ke ghar se nikal rahi thi tabhi Arjun ne dekha tha Annie aur Romela ko gale lagte hue par Annie ne toh thik waisi he vidaai Arjun tak ko di, ek saral si muskaan ke sath jo bas dikhane ko he maryadit thi jabki jism aapas me lagte waqt Arjun ne saaf mehsoos kiya tha ke Annie ne pehle apna seena dabaya tha aur baad me uske pichwade par halke se thapki bhi di jaise wo ghode ke putthe jaanch rahi ho daud karwane se pehle. Waha se nikalne ke baad Arjun ne apni mehakti car ki wajah ko dekha toh ek pal ke najar wahi thehar gayi. Ughdi gori-gulaabi bhari bhari baahen, behad vyavasthit aur tarashe hue baal, chehre par uchit bharaav ke sath asadharan chamak. Romela ke seene ke kataav bhi itne bakhubi pradarshit the us ghutne tak lambe gown me ki vastra jaise twacha par chipkaya he gaya ho. Angrezi me kahi jaane wali hourglass ya reitghari ke anupaat sa uska jism tha bhi toh itna aakarshak ki imaandar bhi beimaan hone ko tayaar rahe. Aur yahi Romela ne Arjun ki taraf wale apne chehre ki taraf se julfon ko kandhe ke peeche karte hue muskura kar dekha.
"Thank you. Koyi aur kehta hai toh mujhe sunn kar khaas nahi lagta. Ab tumne tareef ki hai toh mehnat safal rahi. Sath aa toh sakte the lekin mujhe laga ki kaafi din baad ghar aaye ho isliye araam karne du. Isliye toh Preeti ko nahi roka maine horse riding jaane se. Ghar rehti toh mauka dekh kar tumhe pareshan karne ja pahuchti.", Preeti ke jaane ki wajah sunn kar Arjun ko uska bhi jana atcha laga aur Romela dwara uski parwaah karna dekh kar bhi khushi hui.
"Ritu didi ke liye kuch exam papers aur solutions ki book leni thi aunty nahi toh is waqt toh main ghar ke kisi kamre me aundhe mooh soya he pada hota. Waise stadium jata ha pehle me is time par. Ab toh Preeti bhi college chali jaayegi, fir aapka dil kaise lagega?", Romela ke bharaavdar hontho par wahi strawberry gloss laga tha jo Preeti lagati thi. Lipstick lagana toh pasand nahi tha par hontho ki suraksha aur Arjun ko chidhane me ye bada safal prasadhan tha uska. Gaadi ghane vriksho ki chhaya me is khamosh sadak par koyi 20-30 ki gati par hogi jaise Arjun ko bhi ghar jaane ki jaldi na ho aur ye mahol bhi kuch khaas ho.
"Chali toh Ritu bhi jaayegi aur baaki sabke bhi college shuru hone wale hai. Tum phir se school, stadium aur dono gharo ke kaam karne me busy ho jaoge. Yahi sidhhaant hai na Arjun? Avkaash aavashyak rehta hai jiske baad hum nayi urja se kaam kar sake, aage badh sake. Chuttiyan kabhi na kabhi khatam hoti he hai. Jaante ho main bhi mere project par wapis nahi gayi sirf aur sirf yaha mile pyaar aur itne atche mahol ki wajah se. Ek mahina late ho jaungi is tenth ko. Pehle lagta tha ke tumhe dekh lungi, thoda bahot Preeti aur tumhari mom ke sath time bita lungi toh wapis laut jaungi. Greece jana tha mujhe jaisa is time par hamesha karti thi. Aur dekho ab main next month US jaungi aur fir wapis aa jaungi, yahi. Sabkuch toh haansil nahi ho sakta na life me.. lekin hume us sabkuch me se best dekhna chahiye aur usko haansil karna he bahot hai. Tum kya kehte ho is baare me? Bade ho gaye ho aur ab toh tumne saabit bhi kar diya hai ki har jimmedari utha sakte ho?", Romela dwara aisi gambhir baatchit karna jaise Arjun ki soch ke aakhiri hisse me bhi na tha par ab wo bol rahi thi toh dilchaspi se adhik tha usme shamil hona.
"Sab laut he aate hai, ek na ek din. Main bhi lauta aur intjaar karunga Ritu didi ke sath Preeti ke bhi wapis aane ka jaise unhone kiya tha. Haan mujhe unke paas ja kar milne ki manahi nahi hai. Aur aap bhi yaha hongi toh.. aur behtar hone ki koshish karunga. Main aapki kahi baat se ittefaaq rakhta hu aunty ki hume sabkuch nahi mil sakta lekin main sabkuch chahta bhi nahi hu. Jiwan me kuch sadharan se maksad ho, ek ya 2 bade bhi lekin wo apne liye nahi balki dusro ki madad karne ke liye. Pariwar sabse jaruri hai aur us se dur reh kar kuch pana ek bahot badi keemat. Dobara toh main utni keemat ke liye tayaar nahi ab.", Arjun ki chinta sunn kar Romela tareef me muskuraai jaise usko pata ho ki pariwar me Arjun kya samavesh chahta hai.
"Waise tumhe abhi ye kisi ne nahi kaha ke tum Preeti ke college ja sakte ho. Haan kabhi kaam hua toh jarur kaha jaayega lekin agle mahine se tumhari ye gaadi motorcycle sab band hone wala hai. Jaha kaam hoga wahi tumhe uske mutaabik gaadi milegi. Aur main tumhe kya sikha sakti hu siwaye tasvire banane ke? Pehle he tum kahi jyada he gyaani ho, apni umar se kahi badh kar.", Is dwiarthi baat par Arjun na chahte hue bhi dobara se apni maa ke baare soch baitha lekin keh bhi nahi sakta tha. Haan wo Romela ke saamne nirvastra bhi ho chuka tha aur Romela swayam bhi uske hontho ko apni yoni par daba chuki thi ek samay.
"Waise gyaan se yaad aaya ki aap hai toh har maamle me he guru. Annie aunty ke sath badi gehri aatmiyata hai aapki. Nahi?", Ab is baat se bhala Romela kyun inkaar karti jab yaha sirf Arjun he maujood tha. Apne tarashe hue nakhoon ke beech rumaal se safaai karte hue Romela ne badi he kaamuk najar se Arjun ko dekha aur dobara apne lambe nakhoon sanwarne lagi.
"Main bhedbhaav nahi karti aur sach kahu toh Vivaan (Pati) ki andhekhi ke baad maine apna dhyaan paintings aur photography par he laga liya tha. Nude models samajhte ho? Haan atchi baat hai. Waha par art studios me bhaag leti thi toh jyadatar saamne nangi ladkiyan ya bhari poori auraten rehti thi jinhe kagaj ya canvas par banate hue mujhe alag sa maja aata. Ab main khud bhi thik-thaak dikhti hu toh is wajah se kuch artists ne mujhe bhi unke liye nirvastra mudraye banane ki peshkash rakhi. Maine sabko inkaar kar diya lekin ek khaas thi.. mujhe wo pasand thi isliye maine uske liye aisa kiya. Par jab apne sharir par uske hath mehsoos kiye toh ajeeb laga. Matlab jo main sochti thi, kalpana karti thi us se bahot alag. Jaante ho aisa mujhe kyun laga?", Arjun sab sunn raha tha aur pehle jaha usne mook sehmati di thi toh is dusre prashan par jawaab diya.
"Kyunki wo sirf apna kaam kar rahi thi aur aap chahti thi ki aapke jaise wo bhi sab mehsoos kare jaisa nahi hua. Uska kendra aapka bahari khoobsurat sharir tha na ki waisi bhavnaye jo aap me thi uske liye. Aakarshan."
"Bilkul thik. Tabhi kehti hu ki tum umar se jyada samajhdar ho. Hahaha.. uske baad maine ye sab apne dimag me he rakha. Uske baad ab main jab lauti toh wahi feelings dobara sar uthane lagi ki main kisi khoobsurat aurat ko nirvastra saamne mehsoos karu, uska aisa chitra banau jisme meri wo feelings ho jo dabi rahi. Uske liye mujhe chahiye thi aisi aurat jo har maamle me mujhse kahi jyada aakarshak ho aur agar barabar bhi ho toh kam se kam utni garam he ho jitni garmi mere bhitar hai. Ek soul experiment tha ye mere liye kyonki mard toh meri zindagi me sirf Vivaan he aaya hai aaj tak aur same sex me mujhe aisi dilchaspi kuch galat bhi lagti thi. Bura matt maan na aage jo bhi kahu."
"Aap khul kar baat kar sakti hai mere sath aur main toh bhaag bhi nahi sakta. Hahaha.", Arjun ke is majaak par Romela bhi hansne lagi jiske eksaar khoobsurat safed daant bhi muskurahat jitne he aakarshak the.
"Hahaha.. but this is serious. Tumhe ajeeb lage toh maaf karna lekin main tum par he trust karti hu. Rekha se meri gehri dosti rahi hai, jab meri shaadi hui thi aur India aayi us samay se he. Wo tumhare jaisi he hai ya tumse bhi behtar. Pehle toh aise vichaar he nahi the mere mann me aur baat bhi hoti thi toh saal 6 mahine me phone par. Kabhi Rekha kar leti thi toh kabhi main. Is baar jab aayi toh pehli najar me he mujhe jo Rekha dikhi, laga ki ye ek nayi Rekha hai. Jaise ageless.. Nahi wo pehle se jyada khoobsurat bhi ho gayi thi. Mile bhi toh utne he pyaar se aur wo conservative soch wali nahi hai agar tumhe nahi pata toh bata deti hu. She's highly talented and adaptive. Mujhme himmat he nahi hui ki ye keh saku ki wo mere liye waise pose kare. Haan aadha he keh saki toh bas kapdo ke sath he painting bana paayi. Phir akele me baithne lage toh sab tarah ki baat hoti aapas ki. Like mere saamne saree bhi change karna normal hai. Aur aise he maine himmat karke pooch liya ki kya wo mere liye kapde utaar sakti hai?", Arjun ke kaan garam hone lage the ab kyonki pehle wo khush tha jab usko laga ki uski maa se Romela baat he na kar saki hai par ye aakhiri pankti ne dil me kampann si kar di.
"Fir maa ne kya kaha?"
"Hahaha.. utaar diye.. upar wale. Aur ye kaha ke dekh lu kuch alag nahi hai aur main kahi jyada sundar hu. Maine hath lagane ki koshish ki toh na usne roka aur na mujhse lagaya gaya. Maine sorry bol diya ye kehte hue ki main uski nude painting karna chahti thi aur ab lagta hai ki waisa karna thik nahi hoga. Painting ka kya hai, kisi ke bhi saamne aa sakti hai jab canvas par ban jaaye. Aur Rekha ne bhi yahi kaha ki usko mere saamne nirvastra hone me jhijhak hai lekin wo mere liye 2 vastro me baithne ko tyaar rahegi jab main chahu. Chehra nahi banau aur waise chehre jitna.. leave it... Rekha meri sabse khaas dost hai aur jab wo meri khushi ke liye jokhim le sakti hai toh mujhe bhi parwah karni chahiye na? Haan wo experiment divert ho gaya baad me. Alisha me feel nahi aayi aur uska sach bhi pata tha isliye jaane diya. Annie kamaal ki hai.. experienced bhi.. College jaane tak uske relations sirf ladkiyon se he the aur baad me apne pati ke sath. Hum dono kuch time ek kamre me sath rahi aur ab wo mujhe feel karti hai, main usko. Paint bhi kiya hai maine usko, tum dekhna chahoge?", Arjun ke dil me aisi thandak bhar uthi jaise jism hawa sa ho chuka ho. Sab soch dur ho gayi jab vastavkita pata lagi. Romela yun he nahi uski maa ki khaas thi. Unme aatmiyata aur pakki dosti thi, dono taraf se.
"Param uncle toh atche khaase dikhte hai aur pyaar bhi karte hai Annie aunty se jitna maine notice kiya. Fir wo aapke sath?"
"Kitne time dono alag alag rahe hai ye jaante ho tum? Dikhne se toh dhero aise insaan hai aaspas jo kahi behtar hai aur kaam me bhi unka naam hai. Par kya unka pyaar sachha hai apne sathi se? Ek udaharan toh main he hu tumhare sath. Mujhe Vivaan aur Alisha ke beech sambandh bhi manjoor the par kam se kam mera pati meri andekhi toh na karta. Alisha mujhse matlab ka rishta toh na rakhti.. Annie ke pati ko deri se ehsaas hua aur usne mauka diya bhi toh ab Param dawayi khane ke baad bhi usko khush nahi rakh sakta. Iski badi wajah hai Annie ka uske liye intjaar karna, kisi ki taraf bhi dhyaan na dete hue jabki Param ke anginat sambandh nasha karne ke sath. Kya sabar rakhna sirf aurat ka he dharam hai, kartavya hai? Uski khushiyan koyi maayne nahi rakhti? Mard bas apne kiye ki maafi maang kar wapis samaaj ke saamne seena taan ke chalne lage bhale he kamar ke niche se wo mardangi khatam kar chuka ho. Is maamle me meri beti ki kismat bahot alag hai jisko tumhare jaisa ghora mila aur wo isko saadhna bhi jaanti hai aur tum bhi choti badi baat ka poora dhyaan rakhte ho. Sex sabkuch nahi hota Arjun, parwaah aur pyaar hota hai jo na hone se rishtey bas naam ke reh jaate hai.. bahar se dikhai denge par bhitar bilkul khokhle.", Arjun ko ab wajah pata chali toh yahi sab usne apni maa ke jiwan me mehsoos kiya. Aakhir Paramveer Sangwan jaisa he jiwan toh tha uske pita ka bhi lekin inke beech wo vanvaas toh sath rehte hue bhi kaayam tha jo Annie aur Param ke beech bahari taur par beshak khatam hua.
"Kamiya toh mujhme bhi dhero ho.."
"Unhe kamiyan nahi khaasiyat kehte hai Arjun. Renuka ko naya jiwan dena, Preeti ko samajhdar banana aur pehle dusro ki khushi ko mehatva dena tum me andar se hai. Maine toh Renuka se bhi kaha tha ke wo kismat ki dhani hai. Hahaha.. Annie ki painting nahi dekhna chahte?", Gaadi sector ki taraf badhne lagi thi aur ab shaam bhi hone lagi thi. Dhimi raftar ke bawjood ye safar kabhi toh rukna he tha.
"Fir meri feelings badal gayi toh?", Arjun ke jawaab me uski alag si shararti muskaan dekhte hue Romela ne ab kahi use sparsh kiya tha wo bhi muthi band karke kandhe par maarte hue.
"Gande ladke.. Hahaha.. Fir toh Annie ko poori khushi mil jaayegi.. jo abhi tak.. haq hone ke bawjood mujhe nahi mili..", Ye lafz jitne dhime aur dhire dhire Romela ke mooh se nikle the utna he gehra prahaar tha inka Arjun ke mann par. Romela ne keh he diya tha ke uska Arjun par laajmi haq hai.
"Main majaak .."
"Main serious hu.. Aur isliye bhi main tumhare sath waha nahi gayi aur aana bhi nahi chahti thi. Paap punya jaisi bharatiya samajh mujhme bhi jyada khaas nahi hai lekin.."
"Sabar?"
"Hahaha.. Jaise Preeti se milne aaye the na diwaar faand kar? Aaj bhi aana lekin bahar wali gallery se seedha meri khidki par. Jaha flower pot laga hai. Abhi ghar ja kar araam se neend poori kar lena, phir painting karte time tumhe dikkat mehsoos nahi hogi.. aur na tumhare bade bursh ko. Ab sabar nahi..
.
.
"Ja kar he baith gaya tha kya?", Yaha ghar me abhi dakhil he hua tha Arjun Romela ko unke ghar ke saamne utarne ke baad aur kamar par dono hath rakhe rasta rokti Ritu takra gayi. Najro ka chasma saabit karta tha ke ye khoobsurat apsara si yuvti is waqt tak padh rahi thi. Kaushalya ji ke sath unki bahuen dining table par baithi shaam ki chai peete hue in dono ko he dekhne lagi. Madhuri, Komal, Priyanka ke sath Tara bhi waha maujood thi jinhe khabar thi ki Arjun ki shaamat aane wali hai ghar pahuchte he.
"Ye thodi na bataya tha ki kabtak le kar aane hai? Pehle papa ke pas he time lag gaya aur uske baad kaam se market jana pada. Romela aunty bhi udhar lunch par gayi hui thi toh unhe bhi wapis le kar aana pada toh deri ho gayi."
"Waah.. papa khud wapis aa chuke hai hospital se aur tumhe toh bas ghar se bahar nikalte he sab pakad lete hai.. Unke kaam jo nahi hue hote tumhari gair-hajri me. Sirf yahi papers chahiye the lekin subah ke gaye ab aa rahe ho.", Ritu toh pakki akad chuki thi jiske saamne koyi aur jawaab dena aatmghati hota Arjun ke liye.
"Sorry.. bata deti na ki itna urgent hai. Aainda aisa nahi hoga.", Ab Ritu ko bhi laga jaise usne kuch jyada he sakhti dikha di aur abhi tak unke beech swayam Kaushalya ji ne bhi dakhal na di thi. Par Kuljeet ke sath Lalita ji aur Renuka bua tak hairaani se dekh rahe the in dono ko, khaas kar Ritu ke aise swaroop ko.
"Bathroom ja main toliya laati hu. Maine bhi lunch nahi kiya tere intjaar me. Sorry matt bola kar mujhe.", Ritu he hath pakad kar leti gayi usko jaise Arjun koyi chota bacha ho aur wo bhi kahe mutabik bathroom me he ghusa. Apni maa ke kamre se Arjun ke liye toliya, kurta pajama la kar bathroom me usko dene ke baad Ritu rasoighar ki aur badhi toh Kaushalya ji ne he toka. Arjun nahane laga tha ab.
"Tera iske bina sarta bhi nahi aur daant dapatne se hategi bhi nahi. Usko bura laga toh?"
"Aise kaise bura lagega daadi? Bhai hai chota aur pyaar me daant dulaar sab rehta hai. Aap nahi kaan khinchti uske? Ab jo kaam ek ghante ka ho usme 8 ghante kaise lage ye pata nahi karna chahiye? 4 mahine pehle tak na aap isko Sandeep ke ghar na jaane deti thi bina pooche. Ab papa se aap nahi puchengi ki unhone kyun Aaru ko hospital bulwaya?", Kuljeet ko jawaab mil chuka tha daadi aur pauti ke is sawaal jawaab se aur Ritu rasoi me ja chuki thi khana garam karne ke liye.
"Rekha, Krishna aur ye Lalita tak kabhi sawaal nahi puchengi us se kyonki pehle ye jimma mera tha aur ab Arjun ki hitler behan ka hai. Dekh rahi thi na tum usko? Dopehar ko pehle he deri se khaane ke liye aayi aur bhai na dikha toh khaya bhi nahi. Padhaai nahi ruki iski un parcho se par yaad dilwa diya ki jis kaam se nikla tha pehle wo poora karna chahiye. Ab khud pe gussa hoti rahegi aur khana bhi khud khilayegi, apni maa ke kamre me baith ke.", Kaushalya ji ki baat sunn kar Rekha ke bhi chehre par sehmati dikhi par Lalita ji wahi aadatan bol uthi.
"Angrezi me bolte hai na pemission.. wo hum me se kisi ko na mili maa ji se par Ritu ne khud hathiya li inse. Majaal ke teesre ke saamne kisi bache ko hum me se koyi kuch keh de. Waise sach baat toh ye hai ke is ghar ke bache humne toh sambhale bhi nahi. Maa ji ne khud unhe samay diya ya aapas me jiske sath jyada laad mila udhar ho liye. Sanjiv gaya Rekha ke paas aur Madhuri is Krishna ki laadli thi. Aarti ka pehle bhi badi mummy rehta tha aur aaj bhi waisa he hai. Haan Pinki meri laado hai jo mujhse sacha pyaar karti hai aur ye Tara bhi."
"Bache baant rakhe hai?", Kuljeet ke mooh se nikal gaya toh sabhi hans diye, kuch mooh par hath rakhe hue.
"Nahi nahi bhabhi.. Bacho ne baant rakha hai apne hisaab se. Alka aur Tara hai tauji ki taraf, Ritu aur Sanjiv taai ji ki. Baaki sab mele me aaye hue hai. Nahi Komal?", Renuka bua ne jaise yaha kaushalya ji ko lapeta tha aisa kisi ko bhaan na tha aur Kaushalya ji toh ye bhi khushi khushi le gayi apne upar.
"Bata kaunsa aisa hai jiske sath dubhaat kiya ho? Haan tu jarur mujhse jyada dur rahi par ab wo kasar bhi main poori kar rahi. Aise he khush raha kar aur aaj toh chai mil gayi sabke sath par aainda jitne ek pyaari si devi na paida ho jaati itne chai na maangiyo.", Yaha baat aulaad par aayi toh Arjun ki tarah he Kaushalya ji ne bhi beti ki maang kar daali.
"Aisa hai Vishnu ki bindani (gharwali) ke meri maa ne paksh paat bas mere he sath kiya hai. Jo chalne laayak tha usko goad me uthaye rakhti thi aur jo chalna na sikhya tha usko majboori me seekhna pada. Aur meri maa ki atchi baat ye hai ki chhoro ki chaah toh inhe jama bhi na rahi, 3-3 aise paida kar diye ke tirath ho gaya inka. Hahaha.. fer bhi jee atka rehta inka apne dono pauto me. Tara ke laad hai par jara Himanshu ka pucho inse. Maa, thode paise diyo jara almari se aur bhabhi ke sath tayaar ho ke aa jao Krishna ji. Aaj sarpanch ji ke yaha khana hai apna.", Narinder ji toh yaha aate ke sath apni badi bhabhi ka he cup utha kar ek ghoont me khaali kar gaye aur uske baad unhone Rekha ji ke hath se bhi chai le li jo aadhi he thi ab. Kaushalya ji jaanti thi apne is manchale ko jo aisa he tha sabke sath, hansta khelta rehne wala.
"Abhi Vishnu ki bindani jaanti na hai tum lafango ko. Jaan gayi toh khet pe he danda rakha karegi. Waise maine sarpanch ke laathi na maari jo nyota sirf tujhe mila.", Krishna ji bhi apni saas ki baat sunn kar jhemp si gayi aur Kuljeet dekh rahi thi ki Narinder ji abhi tak apni maa se paise lete hai. Haan hansi unki bhi nikli par unhe laga kahi Narinder ji isko anyatha na le le par apni dono bhabhiyon sang unka aisa milansar roop dekhte hue wo muskuraai jiska khamiyaja uthaya unke cup ne.
"Oh maa, pehle phone aapko he aaya tha unka. Mujhe toh Shankar ne bataya ke uski bhi baat hui hai aur aapne agle hafte ka kaha tha. Kal Vishnu ne toh nikal jana mata ke darshan ko.. Ritu beta, ek paratha is bhookhe ko bhi khilati ja. Tu he hai meri pyaari bachi jo mera itna khayal rakhti hai. Kisi ne toh chai bhi na poochi tere is chacha ko.", Yaha Ritu saade namak-mirch ke 4-5 parathe bana ke bahar nikli thi jisko vivashta wale andaaj me Narinder ji ne apne paas bula liya. Wo khud he ek paratha gol karne ke baad apna coffee ka cup unhe de rahi thi ki plate Shankar ne apne hath le li jo abhi Vishnu sang idhar aa pahuche the. Bas aadha minute na poora hua tha ki Narinder Shankar ne 2-2 aur Vishnu ne ek paratha hajam karte hue khaali plate Ritu ko thama di. Wo bas muskura he sakti thi aur bathroom se bahar nikle Arjun ne sab dekha tha baal sukhate hue.
"Didi, aap tayaar nahi hui? Main toh naha bhi liya itni deri me. Chalo jaldi karo nahi toh Manchanda uncle ka bookstore band ho jaayega. Monday ko wo jaldi band kar dete hai dukaan.", yaha Arjun ne itni he deri me apne Ritu ke liye pyaar ka samay bana liya tha jisko prashansha se dekhte Vishnu aur Inder ke sath khade Shankar ji ne sawaal kiya. Ladkiyan aur bahuen uthne lagi thi Kaushalya ji ke uthte he jo paise laane se pehle Ritu ka sar dulaarti gayi jaise unhe pata ho ki wo niwale unki is laadli ne kiske liye banaye the aur par naam kisi aur ke ho gaye.
"Manchanda ko bol deta hu savere yahi bhijwa dega kitaab. Hum log bhi ja rahe hai, subah tumhari maa ke sath aate hue bhi le aaunga. Raat bhar ka sabar kar lo, bheed milegi abhi market me.", Shankar ji ko toh unka beta ab jawaab bhi nahi de sakta tha. Itni jaldi dusra jwaaab bhi kaha milta.
"Maine market jana hai toh jana hai. Aaj sab log gaye na ghoomne firne, par main ghar pe kitaabe dekh rahi hu subah 4 baje se. Aapse kaha tha chalne ko lekin aap dinner pe ja rahe ho.", Vishnu ji toh ye tevar abhi dekh rahe the jo kuch waqt pehle Kuljeet ne dekhe the Ritu ke. Narinder ne toh mooh pher liya kyonki Aarti-Rupali ko liye wo bhi bahar tha jabki Priyanka aur Preeti Vishnu ke sath nikle the. Kisi ne bhi Ritu se poocha tak nahi tha.
"Haan jao baba jao.. galti ho gayi jo tok diya. Kayi din se suni nahi thi na is ghar me ye awaaj isliye galti ho gayi. Ja beta le ja isko aur kar le driveri doctor sahiba ki.", Shankar toh aage kuch bole bina he apni maa ke kamre ki aur ho liya aur Ritu panv patakti hui seedhiya chadhti upar.
"Baap re.. Inder ye kya tha?"
"Shukar kar abhi ek he dikhi tujhe. Dusre wali ko main apne sath le gaya tha isliye wo beech me na padi nahi toh Shankar ke sath mujhe bhi yahi sunn ne ko milta. Pata nahi inki maao ne Ritu-Aarti ko janam dete hue Madhu ka jhootha khaya tha ya kuch aur.. Har waqt shaant rahengi par jaha galti hui samajh le Vishnu ke pher hamari maa bhi beech me na bolti. Bhagwaan tujhe bhi aisi he aulaad de.. dega he jab ja he mata ke raha hai.. hahaha..", Vishnu is uphaas par bhi sath he hansa aur in sabke prem vyavahaar ke sath aise aapas me hansna khelna uske navjiwan me bhi urvarak sa kaargar sabit ho raha tha. Yaha Arjun apni maa ke kamre me aa baitha tha is beech jaha par Komal ek saree ko istree karti dikhi.
"Kaun kaun ja raha hai sarpanch nana ji ke waha? Aapko dekh kar toh nahi lag raha ke aap ja rahi hai.", saadgi me he khoobsurati hoti hai aur iska udaharan thi ye yuvti jo Arjun ke thik saamne thi. Salwar kameej me poora badan sahi se chhipaye hue, jo dekha bhi usi ne tha jo kareeb tha abhi.
"Sirf papa mummy aur chacha chachi ji he ja rahe hai. Waise tere aur Ritu ke liye main khana bana deti hu inke jaate he. Bata kya khaane ka dil hai? Ritu ko toh wahi ajwain aur namak ke parathe khaane the par mehnat chacha aur papa ki taraf chali gayi."
"Nahi.. bhookh nahi hai didi. Aur jo pasand hai wo baad me he kha lunga.. Aap chalogi market? Main aur Ritu didi ke sath ja raha hu.", Komal ne apni hansi daba li thi bahar koyi darwaja khulne ki aahat se.
"Usko he le kar ja aur thoda dhyaan rakhna. Paagal subah se padhti rahi hai aur maa se daant bhi padi lunch na karne par. Wo phir padhne baithegi toh abhi bas uski pasand ka he kuch khila dena, jyada nahi. Dinner late bhi karegi toh main laga dungi.", Yahi par kamre me chehra dhone ke baad Rekha ji daakhil hui aur in dono ko maujood dekh kar apni almaari ki taraf badh gayi.
"Ghar pe aa jana time se Arjun aur Ritu ka dhyaan bhi rakhna. sabar nahi hai usme aur gussa bhara hua hai jo kisi par bhi nikal sakta hai. Hum log subah jaldi aa jayenge. Bas Komal beta, itna thik hai. Aur jara ek baar Ritu ko dekh lena.", Rekha ji ne almaari se nimbu ke rang ka blouse nikala tha jo unki saree ke sath ka tha. Komal ne bhi bahar jaane se pehle apni maa ke liye kaanch ki pardarshi waisi he choodiyan, sone ki patli baaliyan aur mehroon rang ki laali nikaal kar mej par rakh di. Arjun sab dekhta raha bister se paanv latkaye baithe hue. Komal ke jaate he Rekha ne darwaja laga diya tha, chitakni chadhaye bina. Store ke saamne ab parda nahi tha jaha khade ho kar pehle wo khule baal peeth ki taraf kiye gaye aur uske baad blouse ke hukk jaise jaise dhile hote gaye waise waise Arjun ki aankhen badi aur dhadkan tivra hoti gayi. Us store me siwaye Rekha ke baaki bas andhkaar he tha. Maatra bra se dhaka upar hissa kitna qayamat khej tha iska jawaab toh Arjun ki jaangho ke beech badhte tanaav ke paas bhi poora na mila. Rekha jaahir nahi kar rahi thi ki kuch aur na abhi tak apne bete ko dekha par jo wo dikha rahi thi usne haalat buri kar di thi Arjun ki.
'Main jata hu..', Ye awaaj jaise taise uske kanth se nikli par usko bhi ansuna karti Rekha ne kamar par lagi saree ki gaanth ko dhila karte hue aise Arjun ki taraf dekha jaise wo uski aatma tatol rahi ho. Sapat gore peit par gol nabhi aur us se bhi ek inch neeche bandha wo saaya.. Arjun ko mehsoos hua ki uski jeebh kabhi bhi khisak kar bhitar ja sakti hai. Darwaja surakshit na tha aur upar se uske saamne jo chal raha tha wo aise waqt jab ghar me tamaam log the. Par Rekha ne toh thaan he liya tha ki wo Arjun ke sabar ka imtihaan us hadd tak le kar rahegi jab tak ki wo adheen he na ho jaaye. Agle he pal saaya bhi farsh par aa gira, spring sa ekattha hota hue un makhmali sutwa gore paanvo ke gird jinhe dekhne maatra se Arjun ke ling ne ek aansu tapka dia. Rekha ke gore paanv ghutno tak toh kalaktamak saanche me dhale the aur uske upar maansalta bhi reshmi twacha ko diya dikhati hui. Un bharaavdar sudol jaangho ke beech maatra ek ungli ki duri rahi hogi fulawat wale hisse me. Kaale rang ki ye panty toh Arjun dwara he bhent ki hui thi jaha uski najar jami. 3-3 bache janam dene ke bawjood naabhi se youvan tak na koyi vibhinnta aur na kahi adhed umar ke chinh. Balki Rekha toh us hisse me kahi jyada he ujjwal aur kaamuk thi. Arjun ke pajame ke sath kurte ka nichla hissa bhi upar uth gaya.
"Wo white petikot pakdana jara.", Arjun hosh me aaya toh Rekha ke chehre par sapaat se bhaav dikhe. Petikot uthate waqt bhi Arjun ke hatho me kanpann dikhi aur yahi mastishk me jaise ujala bhar utha.
'Abhi dikhata hu ke khel ke badle khel kaise hota.', Petikot uthaye wo sehaj bhaav dikhata kareeb pahucha aur Rekha ne jaise he wo vastra thama, Arjun ne apne ek haath naram peit se fislate hue panty ke kinaare la roka. Yahi Rekha ka bhi wahi haal hua jaisa shuru me Arjun ka tha. Jism me wahi kampann, gale ka sookhna aur jhurjhuri. Arjun jyada dhyaan na deta hua panty ke reshmi ilastic ke bhitar ungli daalta hua kamar ki paridhi me ghumane ke sath khud bhi ghum gaya. Wo aadha chakkar he Rekha ki saansein ukhadne me bahot tha aur ab toh Arjun thik uski peeth peeche aa ruka tha.
'Ye kya kar rahe ho?'
"Ilastic thoda tight lag raha tha wahi dekh raha hu. Aapki kamar 30 nahi thi?", Arjun ne sehjta dikhane ke sath un gol nitambo ki daraar me fanse vastra ko bahar nikalne ka upkram kiya toh Rekha ne apne mooh par he hath rakh liya. Abhi is se bhi aage kuch hua aur yaha Rekha ki jaanghe aapas me satne lagi jab wahi kulho ke daraar me ye sakht motta ehsaas hua jisne dono faanko ko thoda chauda he diya tha. Teesra humla peeth ko choomne ke sath Arjun ne apna hath aage le jaate hue aadhe cup ki bra ke upar se jaalidar kapde ke sath sath ek nipple ko sehlate hue kiya jo abhi se tana hua tha. Matlab Rekha sirf usko he nahi tadpa rahi thi, khud me bhi garmi bhar rahi thi wo is dauraan.
"Maaf karna.. mujhe laga ke aap sirf mere sath he khel rahi hai. Geeli aap bhi hai aur ye aag jalaaye rakhne ka matlab bhi mujhe samajh aa gaya.", Arjun turant store se bahar nikal gaya, parda saamne karte hue. Rekha ab surakshit thi aur bister par baithe Arjun ke chehre par muskaan.
"Chale bhai?", Darwaja khol kar bhitar daakhil hui Ritu ko upar se niche dekh kar Arjun muskura utha.
"Chalo, main toh kabse intjaar kar raha tha.", Ab wo kaksh khamosh tha aur blouse pehan kar Rekha ne apni jaangho ke beech hath rakha toh waha jarurat se jyada he geelapan mila.
'Sabar rakho nausikhiye.. Aag me jhulasne ke baad he thande paani ka mehatva samajh aata hai. Waha koyi kasar matt rakhna.. koyi hadd bhi nahi.'
.
.
"Aaj tum Ritu ke yaha he ruk rahi ho?", Romela ne ghar ke bahar nikal rahi apni beti se poocha jo jeans aur chust top pehne khule baalo me kamaal he lag rahi thi. Hath me ek chamde ka kitaabe bhara bag, kandhe par latkaye jaane wala. Preeti bhi alag he tohfa thi kudrat ka jo subah kuch aur lagti thi aur raat tak ek alag swaroop me. Arjun ko thoda samay laga tha ghar ke bagiche me Sadhu Singh aur Fauji sahab se milne ki wajah se. Yaha atche se pehchan hui thi unki aur ab wo Umed chacha dwara uphaar swaroop di gayi unchi kaali mercedes me agli seat par Ritu ko baithaye agle ghar ke bahar pahucha toh maa beti ko darwaje pe he khada paya.
"Haan.. dinner bhi nahi banana mera. Abhi market ja rahe hai aur baad me didi ke paas he rahungi. Komal didi se padhna hai aur din me unke paas time nahi hota.", Ritu ne aankhen nacha kar Arjun ki taraf dekha jab Preeti unki gaadi ka darwaja khol pichli seat par aa baithi.
"Isko pata nahi tha ki main bhi chal rahi hu?"
"Hahaha.. Isko ye bhi nahi pata tha ki plan subah se bana hua hai. Waise tum itne muskura kyu rahi ho? Jhagda nahi karna tha kya iske sath? Ya ye tumhe shaadi me le aaya toh sab bhula diya gaadi me baith kar?", Ritu ka gaadi me baith kar bolna tha ki Arjun ne gaadi aage he badha di. Preeti ki khinchaai toh pehle he Ritu kar chuki thi aur yaha Arjun ko peecha chudaate dekh Preeti ko aankhon se he ishara diya.
"Meri sunta kaha hai ye aur sunta toh aane ke baad haal-chal nahi leta.? Aap he bolo kya pata thodi daya drishti ho jaaye mujh bad-naseeb par bhi.", Preeti par sahi sangat ka asar ho raha tha Ritu ki jo wo bhi mauka nahi chook rahi thi. Aaj ye Ritu ko khush karne nikla tha aur ab fans chuka tha dono ke beech.
"Shaant.. pehle ye batao ki chal kya raha hai? Subah maine tumse kaha tha ki ghar aa kar milna.. Tum horse riding nikal gayi.. inhe bola tha ke mere liye time hai toh inki padhaai itni jaruri thi ki thik se jawaab tak nahi mila. Ab ulta meri he khinchaai jabki main kal seedha waha pahucha shaadi me Delhi se yaha aur yaha se utni dur tak gaadi chala kar. Wapis bhi main he le kar aaya aur soya bhi sabse baad me sirf 4 ghante ke liye. Kam se kam gaadi he seekh lo jis se mujhe araam mile.", Arjun ne ye alag rasta liya tha apne ghar se sector ke bahar jaane ka. Usko jhallatte dekh Ritu ne bharsak koshish ki hansi rokne ki aur Preeti ne bhi ishara de kar muskurate hue sambhalne ko kaha.
"Tabhi toh saja ke badle tumhari dono baatein maani ja rahi hai.. with some surprise.. Badle me kya milega ye tum par depend karta hai. Tumne kaha ki ghar aa kar milna aur didi se poocha tha tumhare liye time nikaale.. Dekho ab eksath dono he aa gayi poori fursat nikaal kar.",Arjun ko ab thoda thoda samajh aaya aur jab usne Ritu ki taraf dekha toh aaj un aankhon me waisa he kaajal laga tha jaisa Preeti lagati thi jab kabhi salwar kameej pehanti.. aur ye salwar kameej bhi toh Preeti ka he tha.. Arjun ne gor se pichli seat par aaine se dekha toh paya ki wo jeans aur top jo Preeti ne pehna hua tha wo Arjun ne he Ritu ke liye kharida tha.
"Chal kya raha hai? Role reverse khel rahi ho kya dono mil kar?"
"Oh budhuram.. ghar pe toh thik se baat ho nahi sakti thi aur Preeti horse-riding ke liye pata hai kyun gayi thi? Waha par Joseph uncle se milne ke liye. Wahi ek hai jo itihaas ke sath sath us se judi har cheej ke baare me jaankari de sakte hai. Tum jaate toh paka dada ji tak baat pahoch jaati isliye Preeti ne kuch aur historical jagah ke sath basandbagh ki photos khud unhe dikhaai. Sabse jaruri tha un paintings ko banane wale ka pata karna aur mere ya tumhare bhaagne daudne se kuch pata nahi lagna tha. Joseph uncle jaante hai Preeti ka interest aur unhone isko shuru se dekha hai Col dadaji ke sath.", Arjun hairat se Preeti ko dekhne laga jo niswarth muskaan liye thi. Aakhir wo dil se uski sangini jo thi, kaise isko kartavya na samajhti.
"Aur kya pata chala?"
"Uncle ne bola hai ki 2 din ka time do. Paintings aur architecture ka detail wo poora juta kar denge. Waise Ritu didi ne aaj koyi padhaai nahi ki hai.. Takriban ek darjan letters ko sudhara hai jinki ink mitt gayi thi ya wo padhne laayak haalat me nahi the. Abhi bas unhe thik he kar saki hai, padha nahi kyunki urdu ke sath kuch pages gurmukhi me bhi likhe hue hai. Waise Joseph uncle ne kaha hai ke us time jyada painters nahi hote the aur jo kaabil hote the wo sirf raajmehal tak he sewa dete the agar unhe waha niyukt kar liya gaya ho. Tumhe khud bhi waha jana chahiye tha Arjun.. Ritu didi ne sirf ek he box khola wo bhi saavdhani ke sath taaqat laga kar. Inhone waha par ek bada trunk jaisa dekha hai jis par kuch jyada he taale lage the. Tum waha gaye toh tehkhane ke niche tehkhana hai ye kaise nahi jaan sake?", Preeti ki baat ka wo kya jawaab deta jo us tehkhaane me hosho hawaas he bhula baitha tha apni Tilotamma ke saaye me.
"Kaha chalna hai?", Arjun ne dimaag ko viraam dete hue roshan hoti sadak par dhyaan diya. Shaam gehra chuki thi aur gaadiyon ke roshni prabal.
"Crystal restaurant.", Ritu ne jaha ka naam liya tha wo jagah shehar se bahar thi aur restra ek sath sath waha madhushala bhi thi. Arjun mana bhi na kar saka aur udhar gaadi ki daraaj farolti Ritu ke hath noto ke 2 bundle, ek betaar phone, Arshi Sahaye ki file lag chuki thi. Arjun ko apna suryast hota bhi dikha us samaan ko dekhne ke sath he.
