Chapter 2

Agle hafte theek thursday ki wohi raat thi dus bajne ko tha jab zaara ka weekly show on air hone wala tha...zaara ke sath aaj ek khaas mehmaan baithne wala tha jiske aane se pehle hi zaara apne recording studio pe pehle aake baith chuki thi aur apne us khaas mehman ke intejaar mein thi…

darwaja khula aur theek tabhi us shaks ne kadam andar rakha darwaja lagte hi studio door ke sheeshe se jhaankte huye manager ne zaara ko show shuru karne ka ishaara kiya….zaara ne ek nazar oos shaks pe daali aur muskurate huye saamne ki seat pe oose baithne ka ishara kia….us shaks ne aankho mein patle frame ka chashma pehna hua tha uske keemati suit tye aur coat se hi uski raeesi ka maalum chal raha tha usne apni rolex ki ghadi par nazar daalte huye kursi pe sidhe hokar microphone ko kaan mein lagaate huye  saamne rakhke system ke daayi or mic ke paas apne chehre ko laaya

"show bas 1 min baad shuru hone wala hai how r u? mr.adam"

"bas aapki dua hai and u say how is everything zaara? waise pehli dafa main aapke saamne aaya hu warna abtak to bas instagram pe hi aapko dekha hai"

zaara ko sunkar hairani huyi wo uske naam se anjaan nahi thi kyunki wo mashoor lekhak tha lekin oos jaise haisiyatdaar shaks ko zaara ke baarein mein maalum tha aur wo oose jaanta bhi tha toh waaqayi oose badi dilchaspi huyi ye jaanke

"aap mujhe jaante hai?"

"bilkul main aapke saath ek aad baar chat bhi kiya hoo aur instagram par aapko follow bhi karta hun aur aapko tabse jaanta hoo jab main ek aam ladka tha aapko shayad main yaad nahi"

"maine aapse baat bhi ki thi mujhe yaad nahi par h..haan aapka chehra dekha dekha toh pehle kabhi lag raha hai par main aapse anjaan isliye nahi hoo kyunki ab aap ek mashoor writer hai aur aapki bhoot pret ki aur thriller stories maine bahut padhi hai"

adam hass pada….itne mein zaara ne show shuru kiya…..pehle apne show ka aur khud ka intro karte huye usne fhir tawajjoh adam ki taraf ki..

"kahani ek ghatna ki mein aajke is naye episode mein listeners aapka swagat hain aaj mere saath mauzud hai hamare aaj ke khaas mehmaan jo sirf na aaj apna anubhav humse share karenge balki bataayenge ki unki aane waali kahani kabtak apne pathako ke haath mein hongi ji sahi sunaa aapne aaj hamare saath studio mein mauzud hai a very well known horror writer and novelist mr adam shaikh adam kaise hai aap?"

"thank u so much and i m really glad ki main is show ka hissa hua and my pleasure ki aaj mere naa hi sirf readers balki tamaam logo se main apni awaaz ke sath rubaru hone jaa raha hoo i am really thankful to you miss zaara".......adam ne hasskar bare salike se apna abhivaadan kiya

"mujhe bhi bahut khushi huyi ki aap hamare studio mein aaye toh kya sach mein aap maante hai ki rooh bhoot pret pishaach aisi cheez hoti hai kyunki mostly ur stories are based on this creatures"

"hahaha sahi farmaaya aapne my most of the stories are written on this supernatural creatures...dekhiye pehli baat toh wishwas karna ya na karna ye hamare upar hota hai jo humhe dikhta hai hum aksar oosi pe yakeen karte hai whether they exist or not….koi kahega vampires hote hai werewolves hote hai par hum yakeen nahi karenge kyunki ye kuch zyada kaalpanik ho jata hai lekin bhoot jo ki soul of the dead hota hai ye aatmaaye inki nishaania humhe aksar dekhne ko mili hai aur yakeen jaaniye kuch astitva toh inka hota hai"

"toh aap maante hai ki bhoot pret hote hai?"

"hmm hote hai aur inse bhi alag jo hamare dharam se judi baat hai jinpe yakeen to karna hi hoga wo bhi exist karte hai jaise jinn kaala jadu aur ye koi kalpanik cheez nahi hai aksar aisi ghatnaaye maine dekhi hai jinpar yakeen karna mushkil ka kaam hai is kaaynat mein sirf hum insaan hai ye baat sacchi nahi hai kuch aisi hi cheezein hai jo hamare aaspaas to hai par hum oose dekh nahi sakte"

"khair apni nayi kahani kaabu ke baarein mein bataaye jo isi hafte publish ho rahi hai many many congrats"....zaara ne adam ki taraf dekhke muskurakar uske aane waale novel ki shubkaamnaaye di


"thank u so much zaara actually kaafi had baar maine nayi kahani likhi hai aur iske creditss publish house aur editor ko jaate hain jinhone meri kahani ko pasand kiya darasal kaabu oos ghatna pe aadharit kahani hai jaha pe hum possession ki baat karte hai hum aksar logo ko dekhte hai jinhe daure uthte hai dusri badli awaz mein unka baat karna aur azibo garib hairat angez aise harqate karna jo ek bimaar insaan ke pahuch se dur ki baat kahi jaati hai is kahani mein sacchai hai un logo ke liye jo aise haalato se jhujh rahe hai kya bitti hai unpar aur unke apno par oosi based ye kahani hai"

"waah lajawab mashallah mujhe to lagta hai ye kahani waaqayi kaafi readers ko pasand aayegi"

"aap bhi zarur padhiyega"

Show kuch ghante aur chala uske baad show ke khatam hote hai zaara ne microphone utaarke rakha toh adam ne bhi faarig hoke paas rakha glass se bhara paani pee liya...itne dair mein manager rajesh studio mein daakhil hua oosse kuch dair baat karke zaara ki taraf usne ruju kiya...uske jaane ke baad adam ne uthkar zaara ka shukriyada kiya...zaara ab personally show ke khatam ho jaane ke baad oosse kayi sawaal puchna chahti thi

adam shaikh 28 saal ki umar ka salihat aur tehzeebdaar naujawan tha jitna wo dekhne mein tehzeebdaar tha utna hi simple woh rehta tha bas chehre pe ugi dhaadhi thi jise shayad wo aksar halka trim kar leta tha kuch sal se hi uske novels ki popularity ki wajah se wo mashoor hua tha uske family background ke baarein mein log bahut kam jaante they kyunki wo aksar apni personal life ko private rakhta tha...itna zarur zaara ko maalum chala tha ki wo vidhur tha aur uski biwi kisi brutal accident mein maari gayi thi tabse adam akela rehta tha aur sheher ki ghani aavadi se alag uska nivaas tha…

zaara ne oosse haath milaaya…."thank u so much ki aap hamare show mein aaye mr.adam"

"aap mujhe tum aur mere naam se hi mujhe daakiye kyunki creepy lagta hai jab koi aapka jannewala aapko is qadar respect de raha ho hahaha"

zara bhi hass padi…."waaqayi tum bahut mazaakiya ho anyway adam mera ek hi sawaal hai kya tumhe lagta hai ki jo kuch tumne kaha jinn aatmaaye wo insaano par haavi hoti hai dekho tumne jab possessed ki baat ki toh meri choti behan ke saath jo bachpan mein hua wo mujhe yaad aa gaya"

zaara ne adam ko fhir wohi bachpan ki ghatna dohraayi...adam khaamosh sunta raha fhir usne chuppi todi

"dekho zaara yakeenan is zindagi mein bahut kuch janne ko hai par ye behtar hoga ki sirf hum inhein janne tak rakhke inmein zyada deep na jaaye kyunki aksar log aisi galtiya karte hai aur fhir khud aise kisi haadse ka khudanakhasta par shikar ho jaate"

kehte kehte adam gambhir ho gaya ek pal ko zaara ko uska chehra badalta hua mehsus hua fhir wo ekdum se normal ho gaya usne hasskar baat ko kaanta "anyway raat bahut ho gayi hai tumhe bhi shayad ghar jaana hoga chalo fhir main chalta hun hope fhir mulaqat hogi"....aisa kehke adam zaara ko wohi sawaali nigaaho mein chodh studio se bahar nikal gaya

zaara bhi bahar nikali usne paaya hall mein koi mauzud nahi tha woh hamesha ki tarah lift ke kareeb aayi par wo occupied tha...zaara mann hi mann koste huye sidiyo se niche ka raasta tayy karne lagi abtak usne sidiyo ke raste kabhi parking lot tak ka safar ek aad baar se zyada kabhi nahi kiya tha..

har floor ke hall mein ikka dukka band offices ke darwajo par lights jal rahi thi par koi mauzud nahi tha aik uska radio studio raat gaye khula rehta tha….usne bina zyada waqt gawaaye teji se utarna shuru kiya itne mein oose ahesaas hua ki niche ki andheri sidiyo par kisi aur kadmo ke utarne ki awaz aa rahi thi usne utarte hue dekha toh piche se oose jaate adam ki surat dikhaai di...yaani wo ab bhi yahi tha

zaara oosse kuch aur puchne ki chah mein thi isliye usne pehle adam ko awaaz di fhir aur teji se sidiya utarne lagi...sidiya utarte huye achanak uski nigaah niche parking lot hall ki taraf huyi wo ground floor pe pahuch chuki thi tabhi achanak aakhri sidi khatam huyi hi thi ki ek parchaai ek aks uske bilkul saamne aa khadi huyi tubelight ki dur se aati roshni mein wo oose theek tarah se dekh nahi paayi lekin khauff zarur khaa chuki thi woh….zaara cheekh uthi aur wohi zameen pe gir padi jab usne apne chehre se haath hataaya to waha koi nahi tha…

itne mein oose adam ki surat dikhaai di jo tej kadmo se uske kareeb aaya aur uske halat ko dekhte huye haatho ke sahare uthaane laga….."u okay? kya hua i heard ur scream tum cheekhi kyu?"

zaara ne hosh sambhaalte huye pehli baar darr mehsus kiya tha apne office mein…."main tum..hara picha karte huye utari tumhe awaz bhi di par tum ruke nahi jaise niche yaha parking lot pahuchi hi thi ki ek aks mere saamne aa khada hua kuch tha main uski surat nahi dekh paayi fhir wo gaayab ho gaya"......adam khaamoshi se par gambhir chupchaap sun raha tha

"hahaha koi wehem hoga zaara tumhara ek to tum itne late akele mein studio se nikalti ho ho sakta hai koi mind mein superstitious baat chal rahi ho isliye aankhe tumhari dhokha khaa gayi"

"it's serious adam main haqeeqat aur wehem ka farq jaanti hoo kuch to tha yaha par aisa pehle kabhi nahi hua"

"okay relax chalo let's go".....adam ne ooska mann dusri taraf karne ke liye oose shaant kiya kuch dair baad wo dono parking lot se bahar nikale

"tumne lift nahi li?"

"main aksar sidiyo se utarna pasand karta hun bachpan se aadat hai anyway koi conveinence?"

"main chali jaungi office mujhe cab night ke liye cab provide karti hai"

"okay".....adam oose wohi imarat ke bahar khada chodh paas khadi apni black car pe sawaar hone laga achanak zaara ko manager se oosi waqt text aaya ki uski cab aaj nahi aa payegi wo wohi tehre wo pahuchne wala hai zaara manager ka lift nahi lena chahti thi wo pehle se hi oose office ke bahar ignore karte huye aayi thi...

isliye usne kuch sochte huye adam ke gaadi ke paas aakar dastak di...adam ne sheesha niche karke muskurakar zaara ko dekha

"wo actually meri cab nahi aane waali"

"kehne ki zarurat nahi hai door khula hai get in main drop kar dunga is bahaane mujhe meri follower ke saath acompanny mil jayega"......adam ne nazakat se muskuraya

zaara hasskar gaadi mein sawaar ho gayi tatkal usne apne manager rajesh ko message kar diya ki wo pehle hi adam ke saath ghar ke liye rawana ho chuki hai…gadi office ke compound se bahar sadak par pahuchi toh baatcheet fhir shuru huyi..."waise aaj is show mein khaaskarke main tumhare se milane bhi aaya tha zaara"

"tumne mujhe pehle kyu nahi contact kiya ki tum mere show mein aanewaale ho"

"kuch cheezein surprise hi behtar lagti hai anyway now u r okay"

"ya".......zaara ne haami bhari lekin fhir bhi oose oos ghatna ki yaad acchi tarah yaad thi kuch dair khaamoshi rahi adam ne jab zaara ka pata malum kiya to oose khushi huyi ki uska ghar raaste mein hi padta tha

"tumse sawaal kar sakti hoo dekho tum mujhe jaante ho par tum ye nahi jaante ki main in paranormal cheezo pe study bhi karti hoo"

"tum kya janna chahti ho zaara? ki main tumhe koi asli ghatna sunau"....drive karte huye adam ne sawaal kiya

"tum akele rehte ho matlab koi family?"

"nahi koi nahi shaiza ki maut ke baad meri koi family nahi hai bas akelepan ko kaatne ke liye ye kahaniya likhta rehta hoo aur baaki waqt toh office mein guzarta hai ghar par bahut kam rehta hun"

"kya hua tha oose?"

"ek haadsa ek tragic accident".....adam ne dheeme se dukh karte huye kaha

"i m sorry"

"it's okay".......adam fhir khaamosh hokar drive karne laga zaara bhi kuch dair tak soch mein dubi rahi

"lo tumhara ghar waqt se pehle aa gaya".....adam ne zaara ke bataaye pate par laakar theek uske ghar ke hi paas gaadi roki

"waqayi time jaldi kant gaya"...zaara ne utarte hue kaha

"hahaha anyway aage se make sure ki ghar waqt se pehle nikal jaaya karo safety comes first"

"mera profession toh tum jaante ho"

"ya i know anyway fhir kab mulaqat hogi?"

"jab tum kaho"...zaara ne sawaal kiya

"okay umm this weekend at coffee bar milogi?"

zaara ne kuch dair socha fhir wo raazi ho gayi…..adam waha se chala gaya jaate jaate usne apna number zaara ko de diya...uske jane ke baad zaara apne ghar lauti...pure raaste oose hairani thi ki wo saaya kiska tha? adam ka chehra kyu baaton baaton mein kisi wajah se gambhir hua tha kya waqayi wo koi raaz chupa raha tha ya uske saath bhi kuch hua tha….aur sabse hairaani ki baat wo uska jannewaala tha jab kabhi wo oose social networking site par oose follow kiya karta tha aur zaara se uski ek aad baar baat bhi huyi thi chat pe lekin us waqt zaara ne oose koi tawajjoh nahi diya tha aur aaj itne saal baad wo ek alag hi shaksiyat bankar uske saamne tha ye sab itefaq toh tha lekin jo sawaal zaara ke dil mein tha wo tha adam ke zindagi ko janna uske wife ek rahasmayi durghatna ki shikar huyi thi zaara nischint thi ki adam khud oosse familiar tha jo uske niji personal life ko janne ke liye zaara ke paas khaas mauka tha..aur wo apni paranormal study karne mein is mauke ko gawana nahi chahti thi

Chapter 4

Zaara us raat apne study table ke paas baithi haath maathe pe rakhkar shaam mein apne aur adam ke saath huyi mulaqat ki baatein dobara se yaad kar rahi thi...aur usse bhi zyada hairani mein wo tab aayi jab adam ne muskurakar piche mudkar ye baat confidently kahi thi ki uska pyaar jald hi uske saath hoga wo jald hi london se waapis aa jayega sirf uske liye isliye wo aur afsos na kare

kuch rahasmayi tha adam na jaane kyu uski baatein reh rehke yakeen karne pe mazbur kar rahi thi? zaara ne fhir ek baar apne kalai ki us ghadi ki taraf dekhkar zazbaati nigaaho se apna rukh fhir un beeti baaton ko yaad karne mein lagaya jab woh aur uska boyfriend saath hoya karte they...kitne haseen pal they woh jab wo saath raha karte they saath ghumte they aur us valentines day ke din uske boyfriend ne oosse waada kiya tha ki bahut jald hi wo oosse niqaah karega…..zaara ka dhyaan tuta toh wo waapis varatmaan mein thi…..zaara ne muskurakar apne aansu ponche aur fhir kursi se uthkar bistar pe jaa laiti...puri raat uske dimaag mein adam se mulaqat huyi saari baatein ghum rahi thi….

                                  ------------------------------

Bahar baadalon mein garzan si shuru ho gayi thi raat gaye jaise mausam ka mizaaz bigadh raha tha….lagta tha bhaari tufaan ke saath baarish shuru hone waali thi...us bare se rayizi kamre ke bistar par adam akela soya hua tha...kamre mein andhera aur sannata faila hua tha….bas paas rakhki daayi taraf ki bed lamp jal rahi thi jise shayad bujhaana adam bhul gaya tha bujhaane se pehle hi wo neend ki aagosh mein jaa chuka tha….achanak ek tej hawa ka jhonka jaise adam ke pure badan aur chehre se guzara...wo aisi sard hawa thi ki uske ek hi jhonke se adam tatkal bistar pe uth baitha maarein ghabrahat mein uski aankhe bari bari ho gayi usne charo taraf ke andhere kamre ko ghuraa aur uski nazar theek saamne wardrobe se judi aayene ki taraf huyi..koi nahi tha

bijli usi waqt teji se kadki theek oosi samay adam ko bathroom se koi awaz si lagi...adam is sard hawa se jaise waaqif tha...usne dheere dheere apne jism se razaai ko alag faikh jameen par pao rakha...dheere dheere wo bistar se uthkar bathroom ki taraf dheere dheere kadmo se aane laga uski nazar bathroom ke khule darwaje se bheetar andhere mein jhaank rahi thi….paas aakar usne adkhule darwaaje ko pura khol diya….charcharaati huyi awaaz ke saath darwaja bheetari diwaar se lagkar khul gaya...dhadh dhadhh adam ne paaya bahar ki ho ho karti hawao ka shorr andar aa raha tha aur khidki bheeshan hawa se hi khul rahi thi band ho rahi thi...adam apne ghar mein bilkul akela rehta tha lekin uski bechaini darr aur ghabrahat mein kisi jaane pehchaane khauff se tabdil ho jaati thi wo bhi aksar aisi raat...kitni baar wo sirf karwat badle kisi ki mauzudgi ka ahesaas apne sirhaane ya kamre ke aas paas karta tha...usne gambhir nazaro se khidki ke paas aakar khidki ko zor se lagaaya…

wo ulte kadamo se waapis kamre mein lauta toh ek baar ko wo teher gaya usne ekdum se ahetiyat se mudte huye piche lage aayene ki taraf dekha aisa laga jaise kisi ko usne aayene pe dekha uski nazar aayene pe pad rahi piche bistar ki taraf huyi….waha bhi koi nahi tha adam chupchaap apne seene ko sehlaate huye kamre se bahar nikla...sidiyo se utarte huye wo niche bare se hall mein pahucha fhir saamne ki dining table par usne paani se bhara jug uthaate huye ek glass mein paani daala fhir oose peene laga…

itne mein jaise bijali zor ki gargarahat ke awaz ke saath kadki aur theek tabhi jaise koi darwaja charr charaata hua khula adam ekdumse hadbadakar aadha piyaa paani se bhara glass lagbhag table par giraate huye piche muda...uska dil maarein khauff se teji se dhadakne laga uski aankhe jaha se us darwaje ke khulne ki aayi thi us taraf mudi...usne gale se thoonk ghontte huye sidiya dheere dheere chadhkar waapis upar aaya ekpal ko khada hua aur fhir saamne ki taraf apne kamre ke bahar se guzarte huye ghar ke ekdum kone waale darwaje ko dekha wohhh khula pada tha aise kaise ho sakta hai uspar toh taala khud adam ne lagaya tha uski aankhe maarein khauff mein dheere dheere kamre ke andar paas aate huye jhaakne lagi...kamre ki taraf aane se pehle usne paas rakhka daraaz khola oosse mombatti nikaali aur oose jalaa diya...us kamre ki light kharab thi

jaise hi usne andar kadam rakha ek azib sa hawa ka jaisa shorr uske kaan mein aaya kamra bada tha kamre ka sab saaman table lamp almirah yaha tak bistar aur sofa bhi safed chadaro se dhaka hua tha...adam is kamre ki saaf safaai ke baad ise band kar deta tha lekin achanak uski nazar bistar ke theek upar lagi us tasveer pe gayi jispe hi sirf chadar nahi thi...adam mombatti haath mein liye us tasveer ke paas aaya bagal ki parda lagi khidki se bahar ki bijli ki roshni beech beech mein kamre mein aur khaaskarke tasveer pe pad rahi thi...adam us tasveer ko dekhne laga tasveer pe halki halki dhul baith gayi thi fhir bhi jo tasveer thi wo dekhi jaa sakti thi bare bare nigaaho se apne gale pe kalaai kar rakhkar ek saji dhaji ladki ki wo tasveer thi koi bhi dekhta to uske khubsurati mein ek baar zarur dub jaata…

adam kab sochte sochte ye bhul gaya ki wo uske nigaaho mein kho chuka tha aisa lag raha tha jaise tasveer se wo ladki sidha adam ki taraf dekh rahi thi...achanak adam ki aankhe nam ho gayi uska dhyaan tuta to oose ahesaas hua ki na jaane kitni dair se wo aise hi khada beete kal mein us tasveer ko dekhte dekhte pahuch chuka tha...achanak adam ulte pao se waapis kamre se bahar jaa hi raha tha ki itne mein saamne ki aayene mein usne jo khauffnak manzar dekha uske haath se mombatti lagbhag gir padi wo chilla utha...saamne aayene mein piche ki diwaar par latki us tasveer mein us ladki ki nigaaho se laal laal khoon beh raha tha…

adam kaanpte patte ki tarah dheere dheere piche muda lekin tasveer mein kuch waisa oose nahi dikha...adam ne dobara piche mudkar aayene ki taraf dekha waha bhi tasveer pe kuch nahi wo janta tha uspar khauff haavi ho raha tha adam ne bujhi mombatti ko uthaaya kamre se bahar nikalte huye ek baar us tasveer ko dekha aur us kamre ka darwaja lagaaya oose mehsus hua ki kundi tutkar jhul rahi thi….wo janta tha kundi tuti nahi thi kisi agyaat taqat se darwaje se tod di gayi thi adam ne daraaz se mota kapra nikaala jhulte kundi ke handle par oose lagaake kasskar baandhkar fasaaya toh darwaja aur khula nahi…."main janta hoo ye sab kyu ho raha hai? par ab main ise aur haavi khud par hone nahi dunga nahi hone dunga"

adam ka chehra gambhir hua aur woh khud se badbadaate huye darwaaje ki kapre se bandhi kundi ko dekh tej kadamo se waapis apne kamre mein chala gaya

                                          ---------------

Agle din dopahari mein ek fashion studio mein photoshoot chal raha tha photographer aur baaki crew set ko theek karne aur models ke posing ko adjust karne mein jute huye they...andar make up room mein zaara aaj apne naye photoshoot ke liye tayyar ho rahi thi uske sangi baaki models bhi waha mauzud thi aur ek makeup waali ooske chehre ka makeup kar rahi thi zara ne apne dress ko theek kiya aur bahar set pe pahuchi…."there you are zaara okay let's get start over waha par ya like that way bas freeze ur smile okay nice"......kehte huye photographer uske poses ko adjust karte huye camera se uski tasveere kheech raha tha..zaara apne kaam mein malin thi wo har adaao mein apne poses ko behatreen dhang se peshkar rahi thi..

aamtaur par oose fashion ads assignment milte rehte they jinke photoshoot karaane ke liye oose beech beech mein aana hota tha...flash ki tej roshni aur camera ki awaaz jaise baar baar zaara ke aankho mein padti toh oose azib sa lag raha tha haalaki ooske liye ye koi nayi baat nahi thi par na jaane kyu aaj kuch azib sa lag raha tha…

"great zaara okay done for now u can go and change"......phoographer ne last shot lete huye zaara ko jaane kaha

zaara ne paas aakar pehle apni tasveere camera par dekhi fhir photographer aur crew se baat karke waapis make up room mein aayi us waqt waha koi nahi tha saamne sheesho pe saji bulbs jal rahi thi...saari models jaa chuki thi aur jo mauzud thi wo zaara ki baari ke baad photoshoot mein bahar vyast thi...zaara aayene mein apni baalon ko clip se baandhte huye changing room mein daakhil huyi aur fhir darwaja lagakar room ka switch on kiya..usne apni dress ko utaara aur nahane ka mann banaaya shower ekdum se jaise khul gaya zaara hil gayi nal shayad dheela tha….zaara shower ke niche girte paani ke darmiyaan khadi ho gayi aur nahane lagi achanak room ki light chali gayi zaara ekdum se khauff khaa gayi usne shower band kiya

"uff bahar koi hai isshh is anybody there bathroom ki light nahi jal rahi hello hello".....zara ko laga shayad koi bahar ho toh wo kam se kam roshni toh paa sakti hai lekin kisi ne shayad uski awaz isliye nahi suni kyunki bahar koi makeup room mein us waqt bhi mauzud nahi tha

zaara andhere mein hi shower on kare nahane lagi achanak ooske zehan mein us raat aayene pe laal nishaan se likhi wo baat yaad aayi wo khwab mein aks jo ubharkar uske saamne aaya tha wo ooske zehan mein dikhne laga...zaara darrne lag gai oose ghutan hone lagi...zaara ne jaldi jaldi nahaaya aur shower band karke tauliya uthaane ki niyat se haath darwaje ki taraf badhaya achanak tauliya uske haath mein aate aate farsh pe gir pada zaara jhat se jhukkar tauliya uthaaye apne badan se lapaitkar uthi hi thi….ki wo cheekh uthi saamne aayene mein saaf saaf usne dekha ek ladki khadi thi kaanch ke sheeshe uske badan ke ird gird dhase huye they aur usne mehez ek fite waali top pehen rakhi thi pure kapre jagh jagh se phate they aur wohi kaanch ke sheeshe har taraf uske jism mein daakhil they uski aankhe ektak zaara ko ghurr rahi thi zaara munh par haath rakhkar diwaar se sati khauff se rote huye oose dekh rahi thi…

us ladki ke aankho mein aansu aane lage...aur behte aansuyo ki jagah khoon tapakne laga….."dur ho jao uske kareeb mat jaana maar daalegi tumhe maar daalengi maar daalengii".....kehte kehte us ladki ki dohri awaz zaara ke kaano mein suyi ki tarah chubne lagi zaara aur sehan na kar paayi aur wohi wo behosh ho gayi

jab oose hosh aaya tab koi darwaja zoro se peet raha tha kayi awaazein bahar se uska naam le rahi thi….zaara ne uthkar saans li bathroom ki light on thi aur saamne aayene par koi nahi tha...zaara bechaini se jaldi jaldi kapre pehenkar kundi khole bahar nikali….

makeup room mein crew ki ladkiya aur models oose ghaire huye azib nigaaho se dekh rahe they...photographer bhi waha aa pahucha..zaara makeup karne waali us aurat ko pakde rone lag gayi…."kya hua koi kuch batayega zaara is everything okay?"....photographer ne ooske kandhe pe haath rakhkar sabse pucha zaara badhaal wohi zameen pe baith gayi thi

"pata nahi kya hua? hum log iski cheekh sune jab yaha pahuche to changing room andar se band tha par ye khol nahi rahi thi"

sabne photographer ko ek hi baat batayi...photographer ne sahare se zara ko baaki ladkiyo ke saath milkar uthaaya aur oose kursi pe bithaaya fhir paani peene ko diya

                                     --------------------------

Sunday ki us subah table ke paas chai rakhkar adam fresh hokar jaise abhi jaaga tha wo balcony se bahar ke khubsurat base ilaake ko dekh raha tha jo uske theek buanglow ke pahadh se aehen saamne dikhta tha….sheher ki bheedh bhaad waale ilaako se dur khuli waadiyo mein uska ghar tha….achanak uska phone baj utha call zaara ki thi

"hello? haan kaho zaara".......usne tatkal phone musukurate huye uthaakar pucha

"main aaj aa nahi paungi wo darasal meri tabiyat kharab ho gayi hai but mujhe tumse bahut zaruri milna tha"

"kya hua zaara sab khairiyat?"......adam ne gambhir hoke pucha

"darasal main jaha photoshoot karne gayi thi waha par mere saath ek haadsa ho gaya main tumhe sabkuch sach sach bataana chahti hoo isliye mera milana zaruri hai"

"hua kya tha?".....adam ne gambhir hokar puchte huye phone daaye kaan se baayi taraf kiya

zaara ne ek lambi saans li aur uske baad tafseel se us puri changing room waali ghatna ko adam ke saamne kehna shuru kiya...isko sunkar jaise adam aasman se gira….."hello hello! adam sun rahe ho na?"......adam jaise gambhir gehre soch mein dub gaya tha usne phone tatkal apne kaan par lagaya aur khud pe kaabu karte huye pehle to is baatko uska wehem hai kehkar oose samjhaane laga lekin zaara ne jab aur waaqayo ka zikar kiya toh adam ko jaise samajhne mein dairi nahi huyi

"theek hai zaara meri baat suno tum akele nahi rahogi aur filhal khud ki tabiyat ko theek karo ye baatein kisi se mat kehna main tumhare paas aa nahi sakta tumhare gharwaale galat khyaal karenge jab tum theek ho jao toh muje contact karna okay aaram karo tk care"

adam ke phone rakhne ke baad zaara samajh chuki thi ki adam uske haadse se jaise waaqif tha oose yakeen tha isliye usne zaara ko ahetiyat rehne ki hidayat di thi...udhar adam bahut zyada khaamosh aur gambhir haal mein waise baitha raha wo nahi chahta tha ki jo tham gaya hai wo raaz dobaara uspar haavi ho

Chapter 6

2 years back

Shaiza aur meri mulaqat internet par chatting ke dauran huyi thi us waqt main novels naya naya likhkar abhi logo ke beech mashoor hua hi tha bachpan ke apne passion apne sapne ko ab jaakar pura kar paaya tha kyunki us waqt meri maali haalat achi ho chuki thi…

shaiza jaise kayi readers mujhse contact karte they aur mujhe behad khushi hoti thi ki wo log meri itni tareef karte they usse bhi zyada meri novels uski kahaniya unhein pasand aati thi unmein se shaiza bhi thi...halaki shaiza ko main theek dhang se janta bhi nahi tha fhir bhi wo mere intezaar mein chat room online raha karti thi ya kabhi apna paigaam likhkar chodh deti thi main faarig hoke office se ghar lautta toh uske paigam ko pehle padhta tha haalaki mere niyat mein usko leke koi galat baat nahi thi….par wohi thi jo zarurat se zyada mujhe attention deti thi...uski ye dilchaspi mujhmein dheere dheere koi aur khyaal lene lagegi maine socha bhi nahi tha…

dheere dheere usne mere niji zindagi mein daakhil hona shuru kar diya….har tasveer ko dekhna aur harpal friend list mein meri judi bandiyo ke baarein mein puchna ye kaun hai? kya lagti hai kya dosti hi hai aapse? puchti rehti thi main hasskar uske sawaal ka sidha yahi jawaab deta tha ki adhiktar ya toh mere readers thi ya jaanpehchaan waali main khud introvert kisam ka shaksiyat tha bhala mujhe kisi se kya rishta rakhna? maine oose samjhaaya ki aakhir tum mere baarein mein itna talaash kyu karti ho? toh usne jawab mein kuch nahi kaha

dheere dheere meri niji tasveero par wo aise comments karne lagi jo shuru mein mujhe uski naadani aur mazaak laga par dheere dheere mujhe ahesaas hua ki meri taraf uski kashish koi aur hi shakal le rahi thi….maine ek raat oose phone kiya aur pehle toh uske baarein mein janna chaha

usne dheere dheere mujse khulna shuru kiya mujhe apni personal tasveere bheji aur kaha ki wo kareeb kayi mahino se mujhe follow kar rahi thi aur mujhe pasand karti hai usne meri kayi tasveer ko apne kamre mein apni tasveer ke sath jodhkar lagaa rakha tha main toh uske diwangi se toh puri tarah shock ho gaya jab usne apne kamre ki diwaar ki tasveer mujhe kheechkar dikhaai…

maine oose samjhaaya ki main tumhare saath rishta aage nahi badha sakta main tumhein ek dost ki tarah dekhta hun ek reader tak hi rishta rakho par oosse aage na badaao mujhe tumhe dekhke koi attraction nahi hota shaiza pls is baat ko samjho…

usne us raat phone cut kar dia mujhe laga shayad wo samajh chuki thi dil toh tuta hoga par ye kehna zaruri bhi toh tha warna uski mohabbat koi aur shakal le leti jo sirf oose taqleef hi pahuchaati….lekin main galat tha usne oosi raat maarein dukh mein apna haath kaant liya tha ye baat mujhe dusre hafte hi uski aayi chat se maalum chali uske family waale mere baarein mein jaan chuke they aur apni beti ki ye halat dekhkar mujhe bhala bura kehne lage mujhe call kiya aur samjhaaya bhi ki unki ikalauti pehli beti hai wo mere bina jee nahi sakti uski halat theek nahi hai agar main ooske paas nahi aaya toh ho sakta hai wo na bache uski haalat theek nahi…

yakeen maano main oosse pyaar nahi karta tha main toh theek dhang se oose janta bhi nahi tha mere bas mein aaya main oose block kar du aur hamesha hamesha ke liye oosse picha chudha loo kyunki ab oose samjhaana bhi fizul tha unke parivaar waale mujhpe dabaav de rahe they mera status mera wajud meri izzat sab mitti mein mil jaata uski maut ka zimmedaar main ho jaata…

main oosse milane uske sheher pahucha uske ghar….meri hi raah mein sab intezar mein they mujhe dekhke un logo ko khushi huyi aur fhir shaiza se muje milwaaya gaya….shaiza ke haatho mein patti laga hua tha aur woh ekdum sadme mein chupchaap meri hi tasveero ko nam nigaho se dekh rahi thi jab maine diwaar par apni aur uski tasveer ek saath dekhi toh maine nazar uski taraf ki…

"beta shaiza dekho tumse kaun milane aaya hai?"......shaiza ke abba ne mujhe apni beti ke saamne khada karte huye oose puchkarte huye kaha

shaiza ne mujhe dekha aur jaise khushi ka uske thikaana nahi raha wo uthkar mujhse gale lag gayi...uske abba kamre se muskurakar chale gaye maine shaiza ko apne gale se alag karte huye oose samjhaya

"ye sab kya naadani hai shaiza? agar tumhe kuch ho jaata toh fhir tumhare parivaarwaalo ka kya haal hota socha hai tumne? main hoo kaun? jise theek dhang se tum janti nahi kabhi mili nahi uske liye itna kuch kar guzari tumne mujhe bahut hurt kiya hai shaiza i must tell you aur dobara aisi harqat mat karna"

shaiza chote bacchon ki tarah jhenp si gyi mere daant ko jaise woh sunti rahi….shaiza umar mein choti thi mujhse par baalik naujawaan thi darasal uski family mein woh apne abba aur sauteli maa aur bhai behano ke saath rehti thi...achi khaasi amir thi lekin bahut ziddi uske abba se mujhe maalum chala ki woh unke pehle ghar ki beti thi uski paidaishi ke baad hi uski maa guzar gayi toh unhone dusra niqaah kiya tha lekin unki dusri biwi itna usko pyaar nahi karti thi par unhi ke darr ke wajah se unhein shaiza ki har zidd manni padti thi kabhi haath tak uthaane nahi diya bahut laad pyaar se wo pali thi jab bhi jo chahti thi wo paa leti thi...maine uske abba ko samjhaaya tha lekin unhone kaha ki uski khushi mere saath judi huyi thi agar main oosse shaadi nahi kiya toh unhein darr hai ki kahin woh kuch khud ko kar na baithe unhone fhir mujhse mere parivaarwaale aur mere peshe ke baarein mein mujhse pucha mera toh koi nahi tha bas ek business tha aur property...aur gharwaale toh mujhse bahut waqt pehle hk bichadh chuke they maine zyada kuch unhein nahi bataaya apne baarein mein...uske family waale bhi mujhse sahi se peshaa rahe they aisa lag raha tha jaise wo bhi yahi chahte they ki main shaiza se jald se jald shaadi karke oose le jau….khair unka niji gharelu maamla tha aapsi ranjish ka lekin main fass chuka tha…

maine shaiza ko ek baar fhir samjhaana chaha…."dekho shaiza shaadi ek zimmedaari hai u just obssessed with me baad mein ho sakta hai tum mere saath rehna na chaho so pls ek baar fhir soch lo"

"nahi adam mujhe bas tum chahiye main kisi bhi haal mein tumhare saath reh lungi mujhe le chalo pata hai apne abba ke baad maine tummein hi apna dekha hai pataa hai ye ghar mera zarur hai par meri maa meri apni nahi hai unko unke baccho ko mujhse koi zyada lagaav nahi bas maante hai aur main janti hoo tum akele ho abba aur tumhari saari baat maine sun li thi pls adam mujhe ek mauka de do mujhse shaadi kar lo"

shaiza ko main samjhaa na sakaa haan akela toh main tha apni zindagi mein par kaise oose keh paata ki usse main niqaah nahi karna chahta tha haalaki maine ooske ektarfa pyaar ka koi bhi najayez fayeda nahi uthaaya tha…..shaiza kehte kehte mere gale lagkar mujhse lipat gayi mazburan main khud ko uske geraft se alag nahi kar paaya…

"main tumse shaadi karne ke liye tayyar hoo shaiza"

"kya sach keh rahe ho?"........maine muskurakar uski taraf haan mein sar hilaate huye kaha

"mujhe yakeen nahi ho raha sach mein adam tum mujhse shaadi ke liye tayyar ho main sabko bataungi sab khush ho jayenge abba raunak ruhi".....kehte huye jaise wo bistar se kudkar kamre se bahar ye khushlkhabri sabko bataane chali gayi

main apne aansu ponchte huye waise hi bistar par baitha reh gaya….lekin us bechaari ko kya pata tha? ki wo do pal ki hi khushi hone waali thi mera saath chunkar unse apni zindagi ki sabse bari bhul ki thi woh bhul jo shayad wo kabhi na bhul paaye….

                                     -----------------------------


Agle hi mahine meri aur shaiza ka niqaah uske abba ne apne gharwaalo ke saamne hi karwa diya unhein mere zyadti zindagi se janne ko zyada apni beti ki khushiyo ki parwaah thi sach pucho toh maine ek raaz unhein kaha nahi tha agar keh deta toh acha hi hota kam se kam shaiza ko wo mujhse dur toh kar dete….lekin main us waqt apne kal ko bhulaane mein lagaa hua tha socha tha niqaah ke baad sabkuch sach sach shaiza ko bataa dunga waise bhi sabkuch meri mann marzi se toh hua nahi tha….par sach ko chupaana toh jhoot bolne se bhi zyada gunaahgaari hota hai iska ilm mujhe kahan tha?

Shaiza aur mere niqaah ke baad main shaiza ko leke unke parivaarwaalo se vida hokar waapis oose apne sheher le aaya aur ek naye sirhe se apni zindagi shuru karne laga…

shaiza ko lekar main apne bungalow pahucha gaadi roki aur fhir bahar nikalte huye uski taraf ka darwaja khola shaiza charo taraf ki khuli waadi aur saamne ke mere bungalow ko dekh hairaan ho gayi…."ye hamara ghar hai itna bada?"

"hmm ji aajse tum aur main yaha rahenge aur koi nahi ghar ka dekh rekh ke liye ek naukar appointed hai wo ghar ke kaamkaj mein tumhari madad kar diya karenge aur fhir shaam hote hi chale jaya karenge uske baad pura waqt tum akele kyunki main toh office mein hunga na ghar par toh raat hi pahuchunga"

"matlab itne bare bungalow aur is shaant khuli waadiyo ke beecho beech main akele"

"arre pagli akele kahan? itni khubsurat waadi hai itna bada ghar hai aur chaho to beech beech mein apne gharwaalo mein se kisi ko bula sakti ho"

"nahi nahi abba ko fursat kahan? aur rahi baat baaki logon ki toh adam ek baat kahun wo kabhi mere apne hokar bhi nahi huye tum toh sab jaan chuke ho"

"aisa nahi kehte shaiza kitno bhi sautele ho par wo tumhare apne hai unke beech tum pali ho khair abhi ye sadness chodho aur ghar mein pehla pao rakho chalo"

main shaiza ko samjhaate huye oose ghar ke darwaaje par laya darwaaja khula toh charo taraf ke bheetar khubsurat saje cheezon ko wo dekhne lagi usne apna pehla pao andar rakha...us waqt saamne mera naukar mujhe aur oose ghurr raha tha meri muskurahat palbhar mein gambhir ho uthi…..maine oose ghurrte huye chup rehne ka ishara kiya….shaiza ki uspar nazar huyi toh naukar uske kareeb hasskar aaya

"ye kaka hi hamare ghar ko sambhaalte hai inhi pe sabse zyada bharosa hai aur inke hi zimme din bhar ye pura banglow rehta hai meri gair haaziri mein...kaka inka naam shaiza hayat hai aur ab is ghar mein ye rahengi mere sath"

"bahut khushi ki baat hai badhaai ho aap dono ko khuda tala ki barqat aap dono par bani rahe chote babu ne sahi kaha choti malkin aap bilkul fikar mat kijiye aapko jo bhi chahiye hoga mujhe bejhijhak kahiyega"

"okay uncle"......naukar waapis bramde mein chala gaya

"acha shaiza chalo main tumhe pura ghar dikhaata hoo theek hai? chalo"......shaiza khushi khushi mere saath pure ghar ka jaayeza lene lagi….

piche mudkar maine paaya ki naukar kaka humhe gambhir hokar dekh rahe they jaise unki aankho mein koi fikar thi maine unse milane ka ishara kiya waqt baad toh unhone haan mein apni gardan hilaayi aur waapis kitchen mein daakhil ho gaye…shaiza ki jaise mujhpar nazar huyi toh maine oose dekhte huye chehre pe dobara khushi ki muskurahat laayi…


"wow adam ye bahut khubsurat ghar hai mere bhi ghar se zyada".....shaiza chimney aur fhir living room ke keemati sofa aur kaleen aur upar jhulte jhumar ko dekhte huye kehti hai

"aisa nahi hai shaiza ye ghar ab tumhara bhi hai aur aise bare aalishan ghar ka kya? jab wahan koi rehne wala parivaar hi na ho".......maine shaiza ke kareeb aakar kaha

"jo bhi kaho par waaqayi bahut khubsurat ghar hai"

"aao bahar"......main shaiza ka haath pakde oose waapis living hall pahucha kitchen dikhaate huye fhir oose sidiyo se upar laaya aur mere bedroom mein oose le aaya…..kamra hamare liye phoolon se  saja hua tha shaiza ne pure kamre ke charo taraf nigaah daudaayi kamra bahut bada tha usne meri taraf dekhke khushi zaahir ki

"ye hamara bedroom hai aur ye khidki kholo saamne ki haseen waadiya dikhengi hahaha".....maine saamne ki khidki se parda khola toh niche base sheher ki basti aur jungle pahadi ilaake charo taraf ke dekhkar shaiza bhi ektak dekhti rahi

hum waapis kamre se bahar aaye "acha shaiza ye jitne bhi kamre hai sab usable hai har ek zarurat ke mutaabik cheezein mauzud hai isliye kabhi koi bhi aaye bejhijhak kamre ki safaai karwaake tum unhein koi bhi kamre mein teherwa sakti ho okay".....maine shaiza ko baaki ghar ke band kamro ki taraf ungli dikhaate huye kaha

"aur wohh last waala kamra jispe hi sirf taala jhul raha hai"......shaiza ke sawaal se ekpal ko meri bhi nigah kone waale kamre ke band darwaje ki taraf huyi main gambhir ho gaya

"w..wohh store room hai shaiza aur wahan kuch bhi nahi tute fhute ghar ke puraane furnitures pade huye hai aur aksar wo kamra band hi rehta hai isliye kabhi bhi us kamre ka rukh mat karna okay waada karo".......maine gambhir hoke shaiza se kaha shaiza pehle toh sawalat mein rahi lekin fhir usne muskurakar haami bhar di

hum waapis apne kamre mein laute…."acha shaiza main zara kaka se khana wagaira ke intejaam ke baarein mein puchke aata hun okay"

shaiza ko kamre mein chodh main niche sidiya utarkar gambhir chehra liye apne naukar ke paas pahucha….ek baar maine upar jhaanka aur fhir naukar kaka se baat karne laga

"meri gair haaziri mein koi aaya toh nahi tha na?"

"nahi chote babu par bare maalik ka phone aaya tha aapke babat bas unhone itna pucha ki aap office kyu nahi aa rahe?"

"unhein bataa toh nahi diya ki main kisliye gaya tha yahi kaha na ki main ek novel exhibition ke liye kuch din dusre sheher gaya hun"

"bas wohi bataya chote babu aap fikar mat kare lekin kya inko sab maalum hai? aapne jab phone par bataaya ki aap niqaah karke laut rahe hai toh main bahut hairaan hua lekin jo bhi aapne faisla liya uchit hi liya hoga"

"nahi kaka darasal main razamand nahi tha is shaadi ke liye sabkuch ekdum se ho gaya khair maine koi jaanbhujkar ye harqat nahi ki main bahut shukraguzaar hun aapka ki aapne baat ko sambhaal liya bas ek hi guzaarish hai ki shaiza ke aage aap kabhi kuch zikar hone nahi denge khaaskarke us aakhri kamre aur oosse jude uske baarein mein"

maine naukar kaka ka haath pakde unse kaul liya...naukar kaka ne apne wafadari se mujhe yakeen dilaaya ki wo raaz kabhi nahi saamne aayega wo mere aakhri baaton ke ishaare ko samajh rahe they ki main kiski baat kar raha tha

"aap fikar mat kariye lekin bare maalik ka kya islam sahab ko agar maalum chala toh kaise baat ko sambhaalenge??"

"wo yahan ab nahi aate agar aa bhi gaye toh aap shaiza ko sambhaalna unse dur rakhna baaki rahi baat main unhe ekna ekdin bataa dunga aur shaiza ko bhi ekdin toh maalum hona hi hai ab jaldbaazi mein kuch bhi kehna abhi sirf mushkilo aur pareshaani ko daawat dega kaka"

naukar kaka kuch nahi bole achanak unhone mujhe darwaaje ki taraf aati kisi aahat ka ishara kiya mera dil anchahe darr se khauff kha gaya main furati se bahar aaya toh shaiza mujhe dhundhte huye kareeb aa rahi thi

"kahan chale gaye they tum itne dair lagaaye toh muje laga tum ghar par ho bhi ki nahi?"

"arre maine tumse kaha tha na main yahi hu naukar kaka ke paas"

"ab unhein pareshaan itna bhi mat karo ye toh galat baat hai ki nayi nayi biwi ko ghar laaye aur abhi se oose akela chodhne lage"......shaiza ki baat sunkar main hass pada

"arre aisa nahi hai pagli filhal chalo tum thoda aaram karo aur main bhi thoda fresh ho jau bahut thak gaya hun fhir kal se karobaar bhi toh sambhaalne jaana hai office abse saari zimmedaari is ghar ki aur meri tumhari"

"accha accha".....shaiza mera haath pakde lagbhag kheechkar mujhe kamre ki taraf sidiya chadhe le jaane lagi

piche naukar kaka chupchap humhe jaate huye gambhir dekh rahe they….maine bhi soch liya tha ki shaiza ko zyada din andhere mein nahi rakhunga oose sabkuch sach sach bataa dunga taaki kal ko oose ye na lage ki maine oose dhokha diya

us raat mausam ka mizaaz bigadne laga tej baarish aur kadakti bijliyo ka shorr charo taraf gunz raha tha main band khidki se baraste paani ko dekh raha tha na jaane kyu par chahte hue bhi main khush nahi tha….shaiza mujhse lipati so rahi thi aur main baitha lamp ki roshni mein apni diary likh raha tha….ekdum se badal garaze toh main kaanp utha...dil mein yahi khyaal tha agar islam sahab ko malum chala ki maine ek dusri ladki se niqaah kar liya hai toh!

beete kal ki baat soch raha tha achanak shaiza uth gayi aur usne mere kareeb aakar mujhse jagne ka kaaran pucha main chupchaap tha

"kya baat hai adam? tum jag rahe ho kal office nahi jaoge?"
"hahaha abhi toh tumhe is ghar mein aaye ek din nahi hua ab itne jaldi tumhe chodhkar jaana nahi chahta"

shaiza sharmakar mujhse aur lipat gayi…."aur muje laga ki tum is niqaah se khush nahi ho meri wajah se tumne shaadi ki na? main tumhe pasand nahi thi na?"

"arre shaiza aisa kyu kehti ho? khud ko blame mat karo aisa kuch nahi hai haan bas jo hua jaldbaazi mein hua par jo taqdeer mein likha ho oose kaun taal sakta hai?"

"main tumhe itna pyaar karna chahti hoo ki tumhara saara akelapan main dur kar du tum mil gaye ab lagta hai meri zindagi puri ho gayi"

shaiza ki baaton se mujhe ahesaas hone laga ki wo mere aur kareeb aana chahti thi….par na jaane kyu? mujhe uske kareeb jaana accha nahi lag raha tha maine oose apne se alag karte huye kaha

"shaiza pls mujhe waqt do main abhi tayyar nahi hoo"......shaiza ko mere is bartaav se thoda azib sa laga

"kya baat hai adam? kya mera tumhe chuna pasand nahi?"

"arre yaar shaiza tum dil par har baat kyu le leti ho?"

"par aaj to hamari suhaagraat hai na?"......oosi pal ek tej bijali ki roshni kamre pe padi aur badalo mein jaise bhari gargarahat bhari awaz guzari

"shaiza pyaar karne ke liye saari umar padi hai ekdusre ke kareeb aane ke liye oose janna zaruri hota hai muje bhi thoda waqt chahiye apni hesitation dur karne ka u know what i mean?"

shaiza ne sehmati mein sar hilaaya…."gud girl chalo so jao main thoda washroom se aata hun"......shaiza ko chadar odhaaye main bistar se uthkar washroom chala gaya na jaane kyu main chahke bhi uske saath kuch karna nahi chahta tha aur aaj is baarish bhare tufaani raat ko sochkar jaise wohi raat mere zehan mein ghum rahi thi…

main waapis kamre mein aaya toh shaiza so chuki thi ooske maasum chehre ko dekhke main muskurakar diary bistar se uthaaye table par rakh diya kamre ka darwaja lagaaya aur bagal mein aakar uske lait gaya…

                              ----------------------

Chapter 7

Agli subah jab main utha toh shaiza bistar par nahi thi….main jaagte huye oose dhundhne laga jab niche fresh hokar hall mein pahucha toh dining table pe woh nashta  saja rahi thi mujhe dekhte hi usne muskurakar baithne kaha

"arre shaiza tum itni subah subah kya baat hai? pehle din se hi kitchen sambhaal liya arre aaram kar leti thoda kaka toh sab hi kar dete hai"

"arre aur kitna aaram karu? jabse aayi hun tabse toh aaram hi kar rahi hun ab kya? aalsi ho jau tum bhul rahe ho ki ab tumhara dhyaan rakhne wala yaha koi aur bhi hai"

shaiza ka yun apnapan aur mere liye khyaal karna mujhe bahut acha laga ekpal ko mujhe dukh bhi hua ki wo abtak mere jhoot se anjaan hai aur main oosse duriya banaa raha tha jabki pehle din se hi wo greshthi sambhaalne lagi thi biwi ki saare darze puri kar rahi thi…

main uske saath baithkar nashta karne laga usne apne haatho se saara nashta banaaya hai ye bat khud naukar kaka ne bataaya tha mujhe….."meri toh bachpan se aadat hai ghar mein bhi haath bataane ki ab is pure ghar ko sambhaalne ki zimmedaari meri bhi hai ab tum akele nahi rahe"......usne mujhe samjhaate huye jaise kaha main uska shukriya kiye bagair na reh paaya

achanak hamari hassi khushi ke beech ek kaali billi na jaane kahan se aa gayi...shaiza oose dekhkar khauff khaa gayi wo kursi se uth khadi huyi aur billi se duri banane lagi….wohh mere kursi ke paas aaye mere pair se lipatkar pao chaatne lagi…

"adam yahi wohh kaali billi hai kal raat yahin ghus aayi thi mujhe dekhkar ghurra rahi thi aur tumhare aane ke palak jhapakte hi ye gaayab ho gayi thi"

"arre ye isse darro mat iska naam sissy hai yahi rehti hai is ghar ki paluvi billi paaltu hai darro mat kuch nahi karegi arre baba kyu darr rahi ho?"

maine oose uthaate huye nashta ke plate se ek bread todke diya jise wo khaane lagi….lekin shaiza ghabraaye dur hi mujhse baithi rahi

"mujhe isse darr lagta hai ise ghar mein mat aane diya karo khaamokah kitchen wagaira mein aakar nuksaan karegi"

"main ise dur nahi kar sakta kyunki ye bahut purani hai aur ye sirf apni!"......kehte kehte main teher gaya ye main kya kehne jaa raha tha jiska zikr mere munh se nikal jaata toh fhir shaiza toh mujhpar sawalat ki barsaat kar deti

"main kuch nahi jaanti mujhe bas darr lagta hai isse.. dekho kaise tumhare goad mein baithkar mujhe ghurrte huye meow meow kar rahi hai dekho iski aankho ko tumhe pata hai ye roop hoti hai"

"hahaha shaiza ab writer ko hi tum darraa rahi ho"....maine hasskar oose waapis zameen pe sehlaate hue chodh diya woh bahar khule darwaaje se nikal gayi

"tum wishwas karo"....shaiza ne bacho ki tarah sehmte huye kaha

"acha acha naukar kaka aaj se sissy ko andar mat aane dena jo shaiza ji kahein wohi kariyega bahar hi jaakar usko khaana de diya kijiyega"

"accha chote maalik"........kehte huye kaka jhuthe plates ko uthaakar sink mein le jaane lage

"accha shaiza main nikalta hun office ke liye shaam mein mulaqat hogi till then tk care aur naukar kaka ke jaate hi main darwaja laga lena aur agar koi pareshaani ho toh then feel free to call me okay dear"

main uthkar apna coat pehnne lagaa...shaiza ne mujhe rokna chaha aaj ke din ke liye...par office mein kaam bahut pending tha aur darr tha ki kahi islam sahab aa na gaye ho...shaiza mujhse gale milkar alag huyi aur main apna suitcase liye bunaglow se bahar nikalne laga main gaadi mein baitha toh bahar shaiza khadi hi rahi aisa lag raha tha jaise oose chodh ke naa jau lekin main mazbur tha…

"accha kaka khyaal rakhna inka main chalta hoo okay shaiza see u in evening"......kehte huye main gaadi start kiye oose ghumaakar compound ke dwaar se bahar nikal gaya piche khadi reh gayi mujhe vidaa karti shaiza…aur naukar kaka

koi aur bhi tha jo bahar mere ruksat mein wahan chupke se humhe dekh raha tha…..wohi kaali billi ki ghurrti nigaahein

Pure din office kaa kaam sambhaalte huye dopahar ho chali thi...mere khyaal mein bas shaiza ko sabkuch sach sach bataane ka jaise mauka khoj raha tha kya kehna theek tha? achi khaasi zindagi toh abhi shuru huyi hai ganimat thi ki office ke chairman islam sahab waaqayi trip pe they pura kaam mujhpe aur baaki senior employees par chodh rakha tha...kisi ko pataa nahi tha ki maine dusri shaadi kar li thi...naukar kaka ki khabar bilkul sahi nikli main kuch din ke liye nischint tha….

                                   --------------------------

Shaiza ghar ka jaayeza lekar saaf safaai kar rahi thi jo ki bari had naukar kaka ko khub na kehne pe usne kiya warna naukar kaka oose kuch karne nahi de rahe they….dopaharbad jab shaiza bungalow se bahar aayi toh charo taraf ke khubsurat waadiyo ko dekhne lagi jitna din yahan khubsurat hota hai utni hi raat yaha ki kaali sunsaan aur veerana se bhara….itni bari milkiyat ki wo ab malkin thi oose yakeen nahi ho raha tha usne naukar kaka ko paido ko paani dekhte huye dekha

wo unke kareeb aayi…."kaka acha ek baat batao aapko yaha kitna waqt ho gaya?".....naukar kaka jaante they ki wo mere gair haaziri mein puchtaach karne lagi thi

"ji yahi koi 16 saal"

"adam ka koi bhi nahi hai matlab koi rishtedaar"

"ji nahi akele hai aur ab aap aa gayi hai toh meri fikar chote maalik ke liye kam ho gayi hai"......naukar kaka hasskar shaiza ki taraf dekhte huye bole

"unke maa baba se bichadhe unhe kayi baras ho gaye bahut mehnati hai kabhi bhi mujhe naukaro ki nazaro se dekha hi nahi hamesha apne baba ki tarah maana jab bhi sehat bigadti hai wohi doctor ke paas le jaate hai ek apna rishta sa ho gaya hai chote maalik se"

"acha kaka ek baat batao wo kone waale kamre ki khidki andar se khuli huyi hai kya?"

naukar kaka ke chehre pe gambhirta chaane lagi us kamre ka zikar sunkar unhone palatke sawalat nigaho se shaiza ko ghuraa...shaiza bhi notice karne lagi ki  us kamre ka zikar karte hi unke chehre pe gambhirta aur ghabrahat dono saaf nazar aane lagi…

"jj..ji darasal ho sakta hai bahut arse se wo kamra band hai par ye sawaal aap kyu puch rahi hai?"....naukar kaka khud ko sambhaalte huye normally oosse puche

"nahi kal aadhi raat ke baad jab main paani peene kamre se bahar aayi toh andhere ghar mein sirf wohi jagah se roshni aa rahi thi bahar ke bijli chamakne ki toh mujhe lagaa"

"haan aksar tufaan yaha aata rehta hai ho sakta hai khidki khul gayi hogi aap fikar na kare main lagwa dunga waise bhi wo store room hai".......naukar kaka ne wohi mera wala jumla ooske aage dohra diya

par ek baat shaiza ko khatak gayi us kamre ke zikar se mere aur ab naukar kaka ke chehre pe gambhirta usne saaf dekhi thi par wo kuch samajh na saki….sardi ka waqt tha suraj kahi badalo mein gum ho chuka tha aur ab dheere dheere shaam utarne lagi thi…

shaiza phone par apne parivaar waalo se baat karne mein malin sidiya chadhkar apne kamre mein laut hi rahi thi ki achanak uski nigaah kone waale kamre ke darwaaje pe huyi wohi kaali billi band darwaaze ko naakam naakhun se kholne ki koshish kar rahi thi…

shaiza thodi ghabra gai…usne apni behan ruhi se zikar kiya toh uski behan ne oose bhagaane ko bola...shaiza ne pehle toh oose bhagaane ke liye chillaya par woh waise hi darwaaje ke taale ko daant se kheechte huye fhir naakhun maarne lagi..

"hat jaa yaha se kyu marr rahi hai yaha pe? kyu darwaaje pe nakhun maar rahi hai jaa main keh rahi hoo jaa"......shaiza ne paas rakha mota danda uthaaya aur uski taraf faikha chot lagte hi wo ektak darwaaje ko chodh shaiza ko ghurrne lagi..shaiza thodi sihamte huye ooske chamakte aankho ki taraf dekhne lagi

uski puch hil rahi thi wo ek baar darwaaje ki taraf dekhi aur ek baar uski taraf fhir bagal se shaiza ke guzarte huye sidiya utare bahar nikal gayi…..shaiza ne fauran niche utarkar darwajaa lagaa diya….


                                ---------------------------

Aate aate mujhe raat ho gaya tha….shaiza ne mere liye dinner tayyar kiya tha hum dono khaa rahe they toh shaiza ne gambhir hokar fhir woh billi wali ghatna mujhe batayi….main chupchaap sunne ke baad khaamosh raha waaqayi ye toh azib hi baat thi aur wo oos kone waale kamre ke darwaaje pe nakhun maarkar oose kholna chah rahi thi main janta tha sissy kiski aziz thi? main ekdum se hadbada gaya jab shaiza ne mujhe jhinjhoda

"kahan kho gaye they?"

"nahi kuch nahi bas yuhin chodho naa uski aadat hai asal mein parkhi huyi hai na"

"mujhe toh darr lag gaya adam kahi mujhpar na attack kar de ab main aage se saare khidki darwaaze band rakhungi"

"accha theek hai theek hai".......maine hasskar baat ko dusri taraf ka rukh karne ke liye haami bhari

wohh fhir mujhse pyaar bhari baatein karne lagi….par mujhe accha nahi lag raha tha...par maine bhi socha ki ab beete kal ko jitna jyada apne upar haavi hone dunga cheezein aur bigadti jaayegi….isliye main bhi shaiza ke khaatir badalne laga aise hi waqt guzarne laga...shaiza dheere dheere is ghar mein adjust hone lagi….haalaki mere aur uske rishte mein koi khaas badlaav nahi aaya tha main oose biwi ka darza toh de chuka tha lekin dil se uske kareeb kabhi nahi jaa paya is baat ko leke kayi baar usne tokaa bhi par main ye kehke baat taal deta ki business ka stress hai aur main nahi chahta ki hamari shaadishuda zindagi mein koi jaldbaazi ho...kabhi kabhar uska mujhpar zarurat se zyada haq jataana mujhe acha nahi lagta tha kayi baar main naraaz bhi ho jaata tha lekin baad mein oose akela bhi nahi chodhta tha oose samjhaata rehta tha is beech hum kayi jagah ghumne gaye outing ki lekin main chahkar bhi uske kareeb nahi aa paaya oose main shaadi ke baad bhi ek khyaal rakhte kisi apne ki tarah mehsus karta tha….lekin dil se oose mohabbat se apnaa nahi paaya

Aise hi din guzar rahe they hamari zindagi chaino sukoon se kat rahi thi...ki ek raat sabkuch jaise badalna shuru ho gaya….us raat hamesha ki tarah thake haarein shaiza aur main bistar par so rahe they...achanak shaiza ko khadhakti khidkiyo ki awaaz lagi gehri neend mein uski band aankho mein halchal hone lagi usne ekdum se aankh khola aur saamne ki khidki taraf dekha bahar shayad tufaan chal raha tha hawao ki dabi awaaz oose kamre mein aati sunaai di...shaiza ko darr lagne laga mujhe gehri neend mein soya dekh wo fhir laitne lagi ki achanak dhab dhab si dabi awaz mein koi kamre se bahar jaise guzara...wo hadbada ke palang se uth khadi huyi paas ki lamp on ki aur torch daraaz se nikaalkar wo dheere dheere kamre ke darwaze ke taraf aayi...usne ek baar apni gardan bahar nikaalkar charo taraf ke gup andhere ko dekha...bahar tej badal garaz rahe they...mahoul gup andhera aur sannata se bhara tha achanak shaiza ko ahesaas hua ki koi saaya theek oosi kone waale kamre ke darwaaze pe khada oose ghurr raha tha…

shaiza pasine pasine sihamte huye torch ki roshni us taraf maari toh paaya ki wo chamakti ghurrti nigaahein aur wo saaya oosi kaali billi sissy ka tha..jo beech beech mein meow ki awaaz nikaalte huye khaamoshi se shaiza ko ghurr rahi thi ye andar kaise aayi? achanak shaiza ki palak jhapakte hi wo oos kamre mein jaa ghusi...shaiza chaunk uthi tabjaakar oosne torch ki roshni mein dekha wo darwaja jo hamesha se band pada tha aaj khula hua tha ye kaise kisne khola? adam ne toh khud kaha tha ki wo store room hai kayi waqt se band pada hua hai naukar kaka ne bhi wohi baat kahi thi...dono us kamre ke zikar se kaise gambhir ho gaye they toh aaj ye darwaaza us din bhi toh ye kaali billi us darwaaze ko naakhun maarkar kholne ki koshishe kar rahi thi...shaiza dheere dheere us kamre ke kareeb aayi behad kareeb roshni usne jab andar faika toh waha gup andhera aur kayi din band rehne se waha se ek azib mehek aa rahi thi...shaiza ne ekkadam andar rakha hi tha ki tabhi uska haath kisi ne zor se pakadkar bheetar kheecha….shaiza chilla uthi

"shaiza shaizaa kya ho gaya? arre"........main badhawas ekdum se cheekhkar uthi shaiza ko kandhe se jhinjhodh raha tha

"kya dekh liya hai? aisi darri sehmi huyi kyu ho? koi darawna khwab dekh liya kya?".......shaiza se main puchte jaa raha tha aur wo rehrehke kaanpein jaa rahi thi uske maathe pe pasina tha aisi sard raat mein bhi

maine paas rakhka glass uthaaya aur oose paani peene ko diya...usne paani peete huye halka mehsus kiya sadme se bahar aate huye usne kasskar mujhe pakad liya...main oose shaant karne laga

"adamm wohh maine dekha ki wohi kaali billi hamare kamre se guzari fhir ekdum se main bahar nikali fhir oose wohi".....shaiza ne mujhe kaanpte kaanpte sihamte huye sabkuch saaf saaf jab bataaya toh mere pairo ke niche se zameen khisak gayi ye nahi ho sakta? jis raaz ko maine saal pehle dafan kiya wo baar baar hamare saamne kyu nikal raha tha? maine socha shayad shaiza ko koi wehem ho gaya hoga aise hi uspar oos kaali billi ka dehshat tha

"arre shaiza tum darr gayi ho aisa kaise ho sakta hai? ye koi kalpana hai koi haqeeqat nahi woh toh store room hai wahan kaise billi ghus jayegi aur darwaje khidkiya sab band hai kaali billi aayegi kahan se? naukar kaka ne oose bhaga diya hai dekho ye sab baaton ko jitna sochogi aur darawne khwab tumpar haavi honge"

"nahi adam zarur koi baat hai us billi ka zarur koi raaz hai"

"my dear u better take some sleep kal baat karte hai muje bahut neend aa rahi hai kal office bhi jaana hai chalo so jao",

shaiza ke upar chadar odhe main oose sulaane lag gaya mehez khwab hi kyu na ho? par shaiza ke byaan ne mujhe jhinjodh ke rakh diya mujhe aisa laga jaise ab baat oosse zyada din chupaai nahi rakhi jaa sakegi..us raat main shaiza ke sone ke baad kamre se bahar nikalkar theek oosi kone waale kamre ki taraf aaya...darwaje pe hamesha ki tarah jhul raha tha aur uske khulne ka koi nishanat nahi they...

Kisi tarah shaiza ka khyaal maine oos kone waale band kamre se alag kiya warna baaton baaton mein woh yahi kehti ki ek baar kholkar oos kamre ko main oose dikhaa du ya ghar mein quraankhaani karaa du taaki ghar pak saaf ho jaaye baat uski sahi thi lekin oos kamre mein wo nishaniya thi jo ek baar shaiza ko ek jhalak dikh jaati toh main aur oos baat ko nahi chupaa paata…

is beech shaiza ke gharwalo mein uske parivaar ke log humhe dekhne aaye...humne unki khaatidaari mein koi kami nahi chodhi...unke aane se ghar ka mahoul bhi thoda tabdil ho gaya hamesha se rehta sunsaan bungalow parivaar ke logo ki chehel pehel aur raunak se bhar gaya tha….main shaiza ko ghar par akela chodhkar befikari se office chala jaata tha…

sabkuch fhir normal raha maine is beech shaiza ke walid se unke ghar ke ek sadasya ko apne yaha kuch din shaiza ke khyaal rakhne ke liye tehraane ki baat ki…..abba toh beti ke liye befikar they hi unhone apni choti beti ruhi ko hamare saath rakhwa diya kuch din ke liye fhir wo log ruksat ho gaye...ab pure bungalow mein main shaiza aur uski behan ruhi hi rahaa karte they...haalaki mujhe akelapan zyada pasand tha par main shaiza ki bhi fikar karta tha isliye chahta tha ki kuch din uski behan saath rahe toh uska akelapan aur tanhaai dono dur ho jaaye..

Shaiza dheere dheere us ghatna ko bhulaakar waapis normal ho gayi….par uski behan ruhi ko rehte huye kuch shaq sa ho gaya tha khaaskarke jabse usne us kaali billi aur us band kone ke kamre ka zikar apni behan se sunaa tha tabse woh ghar par shaq karne lagi….oos raat dining table pe baithkar hum sab hassi khushi baat karte huye dinner kar rahe they

"accha jija ji main toh agle hafte chali jaungi soch rahi hoo didi ko apne saath le jau"

maine kuch dair sochkar shaiza ki taraf dekha fhir sehmat hota hua bola "haan waise bhi shaiza apne ghar ho legi itne waqt se yaha akeli hai"

"nahi nahi tum akele rahoge?"....shaiza ne meri fikar karte huye kaha
"arre shaiza akela toh puri aadhi zindagi guzaara hoo aur waise bhi ek baar sabse mil lena shaadi ke baad kisi se mile hi kab tum?"
"aur tum nahi chaloge?"
"shaiza main aise karobaar chodhkar nahi jaa sakta aise mein jaana bahut crucial moment hai baat ko samjho tum behan ke saath ho aao fhir hum aage ek saath jaayenge"
"okay"........aakhir mein shaiza maan gayi

Shaiza aur ruhi dair raat gaye gapp karti rehti thi dusre waale kamre mein jaha ruhi ko teherne diya tha maine...us waqt main apne kamre mein aakar so jaaya karta tha aur shaiza kab aakar mere bagal mein lait jaati thi mujhe malum nahi chalta tha…

Us raat main apne kamre mein so raha tha….shaiza dusre waale guest room mein apni behan ke saath thi…"pataa hai shaiza di ye dekho".....ruhi ne ek urdu mein likhi kitaab shaiza ko dikhaai...shaiza ko urdu aati thi usne paaya ki wo koi roohani aamal waali kitab thi

"koi bhi rooh jinn aur pari ho oosse taluqat karne wala ye jadui amal"

"laanat kya shaiza? ye sab kya bakwas hai?"

"bakwas nahi haqeeqat aur aisa humne pehle bhi mere friend logo ke sath milkar maine ek haunted house mein kiya tha ghost calling arre wohi jo english films mein tumne dekha hoga ouija board wala humne bilkul waise hi us ghar ke ek mare huye shaks se contact kiya tha aur humhe maalum chala ki uska khoon hua tha lekin bahut romanchal experience tha ye ek bare amaali ki likhi kitaab hai jo aksar roohon aur jinnato se amal kar unse kaam liya karte they pehle to mujhe bhi darr laga jab shuru shuru mein rooh ne apne sanket diye fhir jab halat bekabu lagne lage toh fauran humne uske baad ismein jo aakhri 4 line likhi hai us spell ko padhkar humne apne upar dum kiya dekho ye 4 line yahi amal ke baad hum sabpar fhunk dena hota hai jo bhi shaks apke saath baithkar aatmaa ya rooh jise bhi bulaate hai isse rooh waapis chali jati hai"

"nahi nahi sunke hi darr lag raha hai aur tu ye sab yaha karegi pagal hai adam naraz ho jayega abba ko bataa dega ye sab theek nahi hai ruhi agar kuch ho gaya toh"
"kuch nahi hoga believe me accha didi kya tum waaqayi janna nahi chahti ki is ghar mein kya hai? kyu tumhe wo kaali billi dikhti hai jiju woh kone wala room band rakhte hai par gambhir ho jaate hai kya ye raaz nahi janna chahti maano agar aisa kuch na bhi hua toh hum apne kisi mare huye dada ji ya kisi ko bhi bulaake koi bhi sacchai jaan sakte hai it would be fun ye koi khatarnak cheez nahi hai"
"agar koi gadbad ho gayi toh"......shaiza ne tokte huye kaha
"ye bahut kada amal hai di maine khud azmaaya hua hai kuch nahi hoga bas tum main aur jiju hum teeno baithkar ye amal karenge"

"pagal hai tu adam kabhi nahi ye amal karne ko shaamil hoga wo insab superstition pe believe nahi karega"

"di maine bhi kayi cheezein is ghar mein notice ki hai?"......ruhi ne dheeme se par gambhir hokar kaha

"kya?"......shaiza ne pucha
"maine gaur kiya hai ki wo naukar kaka hamesha chupchaap rehte hai aur dekhte bhi aise hai jaise koi raaz chupaaye ho jiju ka bhi behaviour kuch mysterious sa hai zyadatar akele rehte hai aur wo kaali billi toh koi roop hi lagti hai maine oose ek din khud ko dur se ghurrte hue paaya tha yakeen maan di yaha kuch toh hai tu bas unhein kisi tarah manaa fhir dekhna sab malum ho jayega"

"lekin agar adam ko ya tujhe ya mujhe kuch!"

"roohein koi nuqsaan nahi pahucha sakti di ye sab kahaniyo mein hota hai aur ho sakta hai yaha kuch aisa ho hi naa par agar maalum chal gaya kuch bhi toh hum oose sort out toh kar paayenge tu fikar mat kar aur mujhpe chodh bas amal ke liye jiju ko raazi kar"

shaiza ne haami bhar di ruhi bhi bahut zyada utaavali thi kyunki wo ye amal theek kal karne waali thi…..shaiza bhi janne ko beitminaan thi ki waqayi agar kuch aisa tha toh aakhir kya tha?

to be continued…..

shaiza kuch bol na paayi main chadar odhey aankhe mundkar lait gaya...shaiza uthkar jaate huye mujhe ek baar palatkar dekhi aur darwaje se bahar kamre se nikal gayi….dair raat ho chuki thi bijliya chamak rahi thi baarish tej ho chuki thi….shaiza adam se lipate huye so rahi thi...tik tik karti ghadi ki suyi khamoshi mein chal rahi thi...achanak uski neend khuli koi charrcharaati huyi darwaje khulne ki awaz usne suni...ekpal ko usne uthkar meri taraf dekha fhir mujhe jagaaye bina wohh bahar torch liye nikali...bahar gup andhera tha usne dono taraf roshni maari sunsaan hall mein wohh dheere dheere andhere mein sidiya utarkar niche pahuchi ek baar palatkar usne upari manzil ke oosi kone waale kamre ki or dekha jiska darwaja band tha fhir kahan se awaz aayi? jaise hi shaiza roshni niche dikhaate huye kitchen ke paas pahuchi toh usne saamne paaya ki main darwaza ghar ka ekdum khula pada tha bahar ki tej sard hawa aur shorr ghar mein daakhil ho raha tha shaiza ghabra gayi ye main darwaza toh lock tha ye khula kaise kaun bahar gaya? shaiza torch liye darwaje ke paas aayi bahar ghana andhera aur tufaan chal raha tha tej baarish ki cheetein oose apne badan par mehsus huyi aasman ekdum surkh laal sa dikh raha tha aur beech beech mein kadakti bijliya ghane kadakti awazo se jaise charo taraf ka veerana aur darawana sa lag raha tha….dur paid aise lehra rahe they jaise ukhadkar gir jaayenge….

shaiza ne charo taraf dekha koi nahi tha usne jaldi jaldi darwaza lagaaya fhir waapis sidiya chadhne lagi achanak uske pao teher gaye usne palatkar dekha khidki ke sheeshe par ek haath ka nishaan tha shaiza darwaaje ke bagal waali oos khidki ke sheeshe ko ghurrne lagi kisi insaan ke haath ka wo nishaan tha aisa lag raha tha koi mauzud tha bahar achanak usne dekha wo nishaan kuch laal tha shaiza dekhte hi dekhte jab bungalow ke theek saamne dekhti hai toh uski aankhe dehshat se bari bari hone lagti hai..

ek azib sa dhua jaise kohra ghar ki taraf badh raha tha badhte badhte wo kohra darwaje ke niche se andar aane laga...shaiza larkhraaye oos manzar ko dekhti rahi achanak dhadh se kitchen ki khidki khul gayi aur wohi dhua ghar ke andar aane laga….shaiza maarein khauff se ulte pao sidiyo se upar bhaagte huye aayi aur theek apne kamre ki taraf pahuchi hi thi ki achanak usne dekha wohi kone wala kamra uska darwaza jaise koi dhakel raha tha koi andar se maar raha tha saaftaur par shaiza ne ye dekha darwaja koi zor zor se dhadh dhadh ki awaz ke saath kholne ki nakam koshishe kar raha tha shaiza fauran kamre mein chillakar pahuchi main jaag utha

"kya hua shaiza kya hua arre tum chilla kyu rahi ho?".......shaiza mujhse lipatkar kaanpte huye rone lagi
"a..damm wohh wohh niche darwaja ekdum khula pada tha main uski awaz sunkar jab niche pahuchi toh ek haath ka laal nishaan khidki ke sheeshe pe aur fhir dhua hamare ghar ke andar daakhil hone laga main bhaagte huye upar aayi hi thi ki wohi kone waala kamra oose koi zor zor se andar se peet raha hai kholne ki koshish kar raha hai ye sab kya ho raha hai adam?"

"shaant shaant kuch nahi hua aao mere saath aao".......main samajh nahi paaya aakhir ye sab darri sehmi shaiza kya kahein jaa rahi thi? oose shaant karte huye main bahar le aaya

wo mujhe kasske pakade huye thi gup andhera tha maine paas ka switch on kiya hall jagmaga utha...kone waale kamre ke paas aakar dekha sabkuch shaant tha maine darwaaje ki kundi ka jaayeza liya…."kuch bhi nahi hai shaiza wehem ho gaya hai is band kamre ke andar kaun hoga?"

"nahi adam theek hai tum meri baat maano koi tha jo andar se gate ko dhakke de raha tha peet raha tha"

"shaiza andar koi nahi aa sakta ek choti si khidki hai oosse sirf koi janwar ghus sakta hai 40 ft ki uchaai pe kaun chadhkar ekband kamre mein ghus sakta hai? chalo ab zaraa niche dekhte hai"

main shaiza ko leke apne saath sidiya utare niche aaya andhere mein switch jalayi pura ghar roshni se chamak utha…"yahi darwaza khula tha".......main gambhir hokar darwaja kholkar bahar jhaanka do sidiya utarkar bahar ke compound mein jhaaka bhi koi waha nahi tha aur naa hi kamre mein aur bahar aisa koi dhua….main waapis andar aaya
"shaiza khud hi dekh lo kahan hai koi dhua ya koi insaan jo yaha mauzud tha?"

shaiza us band khidki ki taraf aayi maine bhi dekha waha koi haatho ka nishaan nahi tha jabki bahar sard hawa aur baarish ki wajah se sheesha ekdum geela tha…shaiza ne palatkar kitchen ki us khuli khidki ki taraf dekha jo khula pada tha

"dekho adam maine kaha tha na ye khidki bhi ekdum se khul baithi aur wohh dhua andar yaha se aane laga"
"arre shaiza khidki hawa se khul gayi hogi dekho iski kundi bhi dheeli padh gayi toh ismein kya bari baat hai?"

"mujhe pata hai tum nahi maanoge tum kuch samajhna nahi chahte meri aankhe dhokha nahi khaa sakti"

"enough shaiza aaj shaam ko jo kuch hua kya wo kam tha? jo ab tum ye mannghadhant baat keh rahi ho oos raat bhi tumne koi aisa khwab dekha ki oose haqeeqat maan baithi wo kaali billi alag tumhare dil mein dehshat daali huyi thi aaj shaam ko jo kuch bhi humne kiya hai na oosi ki wajah se tumhare dimaag mein aur darr haavi ho gaya hai chalo kamre mein aao"

shaiza naraaz hone lagi main oose samjha bhujhaakar kamre mein le aaya...shaiza pure waqt badbadaati huyi yahi keh rahi thi ki wo sach keh rahi hai main oose apne seene se lagaaye samjhaane lagaa taaki wo so jaaye….main samajh nahi paa raha tha ye sab kya ho raha hai?

achanak usi raat kuch aisa ghata jisne kahani ka rukh hi badal diya...tufaan tham chuka tha par hawao ka ho ho karta shorr ab bhi dabi dabi awaz mein mere kaano mein padh raha tha…

Koi sidiya chadhte huye upar aa raha tha uske kadam aahiste aahiste meri kamre ki taraf badhe aur lagbhag teji se dhab dhab karti kisi daudti pao ki awaaz mujhe neend mein mehsus huyi theek tabhi zor ki awaaz ke saath kamre ka darwaja khul gaya...neend mujhpar haavi thi isliye na chahte huye main uth nahi paa raha tha...achanak ekdum se hamare upar bicha chadar hamare jism se alag hoke dur jaa gira...mujhe apne jism par thandhak si mehsus huyi sirhan se kaanp utha shaiza ka bhi jism oos sirhan bhari hawa se kaanp utha…

achanak kya sunta hoo? ek dabi si dohri kisi gale se ghurrati awaaz..wo awaz itni khaufnaak thi ki main jaag utha theek oosi pal badal zor se garzaa bijli chamak uthi kahi bijli giri thi….maine ghabrayi nigaah kamre ke charo taraf daudaayi toh waha koi nahi tha lekin kamre ka darwaaza waise hi khula pada tha jaise shaiza ne niche main darwaza khula dekha tha...ye darwaza kaise khula? main hadbadakar bistar se utha aur nange pao darwaje ke paas aakar oose lagaane hi wala tha ki achanak shaiza ki cheekh suni...main baukhlakar piche muda toh dekha saaf shaiza bistar se theek niche cheekhte huye aise giri maano jaise kisi ne uske pao se oose ek hi taqat mein kheechkar bistar se faikh diya ho…

shaiza dard se karha uthi….main uske paas baithkar uske peeth sar ko sehlaane laga…."shaiza oh god u okay? theek ho".......shaiza dard se bilbila uthi uske aankho mein aansu they

main goad mein oose uthaaye bistar par waapis laita diya...usne kasskar mera haath pakad liya main oose relax karne laga…."mujhe laga kisi ne mujhe pao se pakada aur palang se kheechkar giraa diya"

"kuch nahi hua shaiza main hoon na bas ro mat"......main shaiza ko samjhaate huye is azib si ghatna ko lekar pareshani mein padh gaya pehle koi jaise kamre ki taraf aaya band darwaja ka azgaibi taur se khulna aur apni aankho ke saamne shaiza ko kisi ne jaise kheechkar zameen pe faikha tha kya ye sab kuch oosi amal ki wajah se toh nahi nahi kaise mumkin hai? aur kyu koi humhe nuksaan pahuchaayega? humne kya bigada tha? tabhi achanak meri nigaah khidki ki taraf huyi khidkiya khadak rahi thi aur uske sheeshe par kisi insaan ke haatho ka nishaan jaise abhi koi waha bahar mauzud humhe hi dekh raha tha main dheere dheere shaiza ko bistar par chodh khidki ke kareeb aaya jaisa shaiza ne byaan kiya tha theek waisa haath ka laal nishaan dikha lekin wo nishaan khoon tha ye baat mujhe ahesaas hua main bahut ghabra gaya…

theek tabhi ek aur ghatna ghati ruhi ki cheekh jo saamne waale guest room mein tehri huyi thi…….wo apni behan ka naam fhir mujhe pukaarte huye cheekhi….main fauran shaiza ko dekha jo chot lagne par bhi bistar se uthkar khadi huyi aur mujhe khauff bhari nigaaho se dekhne lagi.."ye ruhi ki awaz uske kamre se aayi hai"......itna kehte huye main bahar nikla shaiza bhi chot lagi haalat mein mere saath daudi

uske kamre mein aakar dekha darwaza andar se band tha maine darwaza peetna shuru kiya shaiza bhi ruhi ka naam pukaarne lagi…."ruhi darwaja kholo"....dhadh dhadh ki darwaje ke peetne ki awaz hamaari pure hall mein gunz uthi

fauran darwaza khula ruhi rote huye sihame behan ke gale lag gayi…."didi koi tha yaha didi bahut bhayanak chehra hai didi mujhe darr lag raha hai mujhe yaha nahi rehna"

"shaant ho jaaa ssshh"....shaiza ooske baalon pe haath phairkar oose chupp karaane lagi

maine saara kamra chaan maara waha koi bhi nhi tha na jaane aaj puri raat ye sab kya ho raha tha?...."ruhi yaha koi nahi hai kise tumne dekha kya hua tha?"

ruhi apne behan ke gale se alag hokar gulaabi nigaaho se subakte huye mujhe dekhne lagi...maine paaya ki uske gale pe lamba kharoch ka nishaan tha jo uske kandhe tak tha uske kapre pe halki khoon ki boond girne se waha dhabba gale ki kharoch se nikalkar lag gaya tha shaiza munh par haath rakhke uski taqleef dekh na saki mujhe dekhte huye wo jaise bol padi

"ab bhi tum nahi maanoge adam kya yahi kahoge ki ruhi ne aur maine koi bura khwab dekha jismein aisa kuch ho gaya"
"ruhi bataao kya hua tha?"........maine sidha gambhir sawal ruhi se kiya

"jiju maine dekha ek saaya mere sirhaane ke paas andhere mein khada tha wo meri taraf jhuka toh maine uska chehra dekha byaan nahi kar sakti ekdum surkh safed munh se khoon aa raha tha aur uske badhte haatho ke naakhuno par khoon lagaa tha usne ekdum se mujhpe vaar kiya main cheekh uthi agar main nahi hosh mein aati toh wo mujhe maar daalti main yaha nahi soyungi mujhe ghar jaana hai didi mujhe ghar jaana hai"

kehte kehte wo rone lagi aur rote rote badhawas hone lagi..shaiza aur maine oose kasskar thaam liya wo aankh ulatkar beshud zameen pe girne lagi….shaiza darr gayi maine bhi oose jhinjodhkar hosh mein laate huye waapis oose bistar par laitaaya aur paani laakar oose pilaaya uska haath pao bahut kaanp raha tha….shaiza surah padhkar oose fhukne lagi oos raat main so nahi paaya na jaane kaise wo raat guzari thi? ekdum se achanak ye kya hua tha? shaiza bhi darr se apni behan ko akela chodhkar kahi nahi gayi main bhi soya nahi hum dono ruhi ke sirhaane par baithkar uska khyaal rakh rahe they shaiza ne uske kharoch lage gale par cotton se saaf kiya aur maine waha bandage lagaa diya wo fhir jaagi nahi main beech beech mein uski nabz ek anjaane aashanke se tatol raha tha jise dekhkar shaiza bahut darr rahi thi puri raat main sochta raha kya ye waqayi koi upari hawaa ka masla tha ya fhir koi aur rahasmayi baat thi iske piche..ab sirf subah hone ka intejaar tha...

Chapter 10

Agli subah doctor ne aakar beshud shaiza ki band nigaaho ko kholkar torch jalaye uski putliyo ko dekha aankho ka rang ekdum gulaabi tha aur safed….pura jism peela padh chuka tha nigaho ke niche kaale kaale ghere padh chuke they ek hi raat main jaise woh badal chuki thi doctor ne chadar uske jism par dhak diya aur meri taraf muda main chupchaap sofe pe baitha chehre pe haath rakhkar unke treatment ko dekh raha tha

"toh aapka kehna hai? ki inhe daura chadha ye kamre se bhaagi aur fhir kitchen mein aapne inhe kacche ghost ko azib jaanwaro ki tarah khaate dekha well that's really strange behaviour of an ill patient ye bimaar hai koi shaq nahi par maansik rup se hai ye keh paana zyada mushkil baat nahi kya inke ghar mein koi pehle mentally challenged raha hai"......doctor ne chashma pehente huye gambhir hokar kaha

"meri shaiza ko kya hua hai doctor? wo koi pagal nahi hai normal hai bas ye bataiye kya bimaari huyi hai?"......maine bhi gambhir hoke doctor ki baat kaantte huye pucha

"dekhiye mr.adam sharirik roop se aapki wife theek hai par unka jism ka yun peela padna aur nigaho ka aise azib badalna mujhe iske liye inki reports check karni hogi iske liye blood sample unka le liya hai main blood reports check karne ke baad hi kisi natije pe pahuch paunga par jaha tak mera tajurba kehta hai she is just suffering from mental trauma koi gehra sadma koi aisi ghatna agar kabhi unke saath ghata hai toh wohi unke is haalaat ka kaaran ho sakta hai khair main kuch dawaiya likhke de raha hoo for fever and weakness inhein bed rest hi lene dijiye aur ho sake toh kahin bahar mat jaane dijiyega i will confirm the reports to you by call and then after i will resume her treatment"

"thank u doctor"......main doctor ko bahar tak chodh aaya unke jaane ke baad waapis kamre mein lauta

shaiza ki haalat dekhkar main khaamosh huye dobara uske paas baith gaya...naukar kaka mere paas aaye…."ojha baba ne jaisa kaha tha theek waisa hua maine unhein inki behan ke baarein mein bhi bataaya ki aise aise unki haalat ho gayi wo yahi kahe ki ye toh hona hi tha ganimat thi ki unhone us ladki ko jaan se nahi maara lekin choti malkin ke baarein mein saaf keh diya wo inhe nahi chodhegi"

main gusse se naukar kaka ki taraf dekha to woh khamosh huye nazare jhukaakar khade rahe…."aakhir kabtak kyu wo waapis lauti? kya usne jeete jee meri zindagi dozakh nahi banaai thi jo marrne ke baad bhi uski mansha puri nahi huyi wo mujhe dheere dheere maar rahi hai lekin main aisa hone nahi dunga meri wajah se ek begunaah maara jaayega aap wakil sahib ko call kare aur unhein kahe ki talaaq ke paper banaaye"

naukar kaka ko jaise jhatka laga unhone mere gambhir nigaaho mein dard ke aansu dekhe wohh kamre se nikal gaye...main bistar par soyi shaiza ke kareeb kursi liye uske sirhaane baith gaya….

Us raat kareeb dhai baje meri neend tuti toh sidhi nazar bagal mein soyi shaiza ke upar padi...shaiza neend mein hi dohri awaaz mein ghurra rahi thi….main ek jhatke se utha aur uske haath pao ko jo ki shaam rehte rehte main ek anchahe darr se baandh diya tha ooska jaayeza liya...ruhi ki tarah shaiza bhi hinsak ho uth sakti thi...main akela apni shaiza ke saath us waqt ghar mein tha koi madad bhi raat gaye milne ki imdad nahi thi...achanak shaiza ne ekdumse aankhe kholi uski surkh gulaab aankho ke putliya laal thi usne meri taraf nazar daudaayi aur tahaka lagaaye hassne lagi

uski hassi itni khaufnaak thi jaise na jaane kitne log ek saath pure kamre mein hass rahe they...jaise koi bhaari dohri awaaz main sihamkar palang se dur jaa khada hua…..fhir uske chehre pe eka ek gussail bhavna aayi...wo mujhe kha jaane wali nazaro se ghurrne lagi maine darr se nazar fhair liya

"adamm kya hua? mere aane se khush nahi ho bolo na"......usne dohri awaz mein mujhe chedte lehze se jo kaha oosse saaf tha wo shaiza nahi wohi rooh thi

mujhe ghurrte huye wo bolte jaa rahi thi aur main nazare fhaire uski dohri awaaz mein nikalti baaton ko khamoshi se sun raha tha...wo fhir hassne lagi jaise oose mere haalat ko dekh khushi mehsus huyi

bahut dair tak hassti rahi...fhir eka ek gusse se wo dahadi shaiza ka sar takiye par patakne lagi….main ghabrakar oose dekhne laga...usne ekdum se mujhe ghuraa aur muskurayi uski muskurahat shaitani bhari thi…

"kyu re kameene do kaudi ke kutte tujhe kya lagaa main marr gayi toh tu khuli hawa mein aazadi se saans lega bari parwah tujhe iski jo ise tadapte nahi dekh sakta tera wo ojha kuch nahi kar saktaa wohh mehez insaan hai aur main ab insaan nahi hahahahaa"........wo fhir tahaka lagakar hassne lagi

"shaiza sorry"......mujhe ahesas hua ki wo shaiza ke jism mein koi aur thi jiska naam maine fhir zabaan par laaya apna naam sunkar wo muskurayi

"dekho ise jaane do main ise apne se dur kar dunga khuda kasam"

"hahahaha mere darr se tu ye baat keh raha hai par ab inteqam ka waqt hai adam wo bhi mera tujhse tere sab azizo ko main tujhse dur kar dungi tujhe tanhaa akela besahara kar dungi jaisa tu pehle hoya karta tha mere tukdo pe palne waala kutta tha tu jise maine apna banaaya lekin bhul gayi ki aukwaad toh asliyat mein hi tere jaiso ki pata chalti hai"

"dekho tumhari problem mujhse hai ise baksh do pls maine tumse koi bewafai kabhi nahi balki tumne hamesha mujhe tadpaaya hai hamesha taqleef di fhir bhi main sabkuch sehta raha waaqayi tumne mujhe shouhar maana hi kab main toh mehez kutta hi tha tumhara"

"chup kar jhoot bolta hai main teri wajah se marri thi oos raat koi jaane na jaane main janti hoo ki us raat tu mujhe maut ke munh mein chodhkar chala gaya lekin niyati mein kuch aur likha tha tabhi aaj main waapis hoo kitni bechaini hoti hai marrne ke baad iska ahesaas tu khud marrkar karega"

main bahut darr gaya shaiza daant peeste huye mujhe ghurrkar fhir hassne lagi...uska shorr mere kaano ke pardo mein suyi ki tarah chub raha tha…"tu toh isi firaaq mein tha ki kab mujhse chutkaara paaye"

"jhoot hai maine tumhe bachaane ki koshish karni chahi par tumne ulte haalat ko aur bigaad diya main samundra mein nahi girta toh oos steamer ki aag mein main bhi!"

"lekin tune meri parwaah nahi ki muje marr jaane diya itni aasani se main tujhe nahi bakshungi is ladki ko maar dungi aur agar koi bhi tere kareeb aana chahega ya mujhse tujhe dur karega toh wohh marrega main tujhe nahi jaan se maarungi lekin tu apni maut se pehle mere haatho khub tadpega jaisa main chahungi wohi hoga main ab kahi nahi jaungi ab jaayegi tohh ye ladki hahahaha"

"nahi nahi aisa mat karna"......main uska naam kehte huye ooske aage minnate karne laga par wo hassti rahi

shaiza ka jism ekdum se akadne laga aur usne kheechkar wo dono rassiya ukaadh faikhi….main ghabrakar gir pada...shaiza gardan jhukaaye mujhe pagalo ki tarah dekhkar hassne lagi achanak uske chehre pe badlaav aaya aur wo rone lagi uski awaz waapis badal gayi

"adam mujhe bachao ye mujhe maar degi bahut taqleef de rahi hai ye mujhe aahhhhhhh"....shaiza chilla uthi main uske kareeb aana chaha toh achanak uski nigaah fhir laal ho uthi uspar rooh dobara havi ho gaya

main darrkar piche ho gaya…."kya hua adam tumne toh kaha tha ki tum isse pyaar nahi karte toh iske ek ishaare par iske kareeb aane ki zurrat kyu ki?"........wo dahadhte huye apni kapre fhaadkar apni baazu pe naakhun dhasaaye cheerne lagi….shaiza zor se dard se chillayi

main rokar oose rokna chaha...par shaiza ke upar savaar rooh ne mujhe paas aane se jaise roka...uske baazu se khoon behane laga usne apne gale pe khud kharoch maari fhir apne dusre baazu par har hamle se shaiza dard se tadap rahi thi...main kuch nahi kar pa raha tha bas bebas hoke chila raha tha oose manaa kar raha tha ki oose aur taqleef na pahuchaaye

"shaiza ko mat maaro oose mat taqleef pahuchaao i swear i will leave her"....shaiza zakhmi hokar bistar par dhair ho gayi uske jism par kapde jagah jagah se phat chuke they aur waha par nakhun aur kharocho se khoon beh raha tha chehre par bhi thappad aur naakhun ke lagne se nishaan padh chuke they nichle honth se khoon beh raha tha

aur main chahkar bhi usko chu nahi sakaa wo raat kitni bhari guzari mujhe yaad nahi bas dehshat tha ki fhir kahi dusri raat mujhe wohi sab manzar na dekhna pade….dheere dheere din beetne lage us raat ke agle din main samjah chuka tha ki wo saaya shaiza par pure din nahi aata tha main uske zakhm ko ponch paaya marham patti karke oose dawaai di oose yaad nahi ki ye chot usne khud ko apne hi haatho se pahuchaya tha…main kuch din tak office nahi jaa paaya kis haalat mein jata hamesha darr lagaa rehta ki shaiza ko kuch ho na jaaye aur shaiza uski toh din pe din haalat bigadne lagi thi har raat wo chillati dahadhti wo rooh oose khub tadpaati thi main ek kamre mein oose baandhe saamne ke sofey pe sota tha lekin aankhe hamesha khuli rehti thi darrta tha kahi kisi raat wo kuch kar na baithe ya mujhe hi naa nuqsan pahuchane uth jaaye…

talaaq ke papers mujhe mil chuke they uske hisaab se muje 6 mahine toh kam se kam court ke anusaar shaiza ke hi saath rehna tha lekin naa shaiza ne un kaagazat pe dastakhat kia aur naa hi unse mujhe talaaq dekar meri zindagi se chale jaane ka faisla kiya...maine laakh samjhaaya lekin shaiza nahi maani uske parivarwaalo ko maine sabkuch bataa diya pehle toh unhein yakeen nahi hua lekin baad mein tab bhi unhe aisa laga ki ye meri hi sazish thi shaiza ko chodh dene ki….uske abba jab khud aakar shaiza ki halat dekhe toh mujhe apni beti ke haalat ka rote huye kasurwaar tehraane lage shaiza ke haath pao ab rassiyo se hamesha bandhe rehte they na jaane kab wo kispar hamla kar baithe….shaiza ne hosh mein rehte apne abba ko samjhaaya ki meri koi galti nahi thi sabkuch oosi ke kaaran hua tha ruhi bhi isliye suffered huyi….ojha baba ki saari baat maine uske abba ko bataayi

ek pal ke liye bhi uske abba ne oose waha na chodhne ka faisla kiya wo oose apne saath oosi haalat mein le jaane lage….."main tumhe zindagi mein kabhi maanf nahi karunga kabhi nahi"......wo aakhri baar mujhse wo baat kahein unhone zor zabardasti apni beti pe dabaav dekar oosse divorce paper par mere hi saamne sign karwaaya kisi bhi haalat mein shaiza bimaar haalat mein bhi sign nahi karna chahti thi….uske abba ne oose jhinjhoda aur thappad maarkar keh daala "agar tujhe marrna hai toh mere ghar par maregi tu lekin is manhoos ghar aur is dhokebaaz ke yaha tujhe bemaut marne nahi chodhunga agar tune sign nahi kiya toh apne baap ka maraa hua munh dekhegi tu samjhi"

unki baat sunkar shaiza kuch na keh paayi thi uske baad sign karwaake wo kaagaz unhone mere munh par faika.."ab azaadi se jiyo tum aur tumhari wo marri huyi biwi par yad rakhna itne aasani se nahi chodhunga tumhe meri beti ki zindagi barbaad karne ki saza zarur bhugtoge tum zarur bhugtoge".....kehte huye rokar wo gusse mein beti ka haath thaamein oose bimaari haalat mein lagbhag ghasitkar gaadi mein bithaaye aur waha se chale gaye shaiza mujhe rote huye gaadi se bebasi se dekh rhi thi…

main tut gaya tha wohi sidiyo par girkar rone laga...naukar kaka waha mauzud they unhone mujhe kasskar sambhaalte huye chup karne lage…"allah sab dekh raha hai sab theek ho jaayega chote malik sab theek ho jayega"....wo zazbaati hote huye mujhe samjhaane lage main unke seene par sar rakhkar rone laga

                                  -----------------------

us din mujhe doctor ke yaha se call aaya unhone bataaya ki shaiza pure tarike se normal thi oose kuch nahi hua tha berehaal wo uska aur checkup karna chahte hai….maine doctor ka phone cut kar diya kya kehta unse ki ye unki samajh se bahar tha aur ab haalat bahut aage badh chuke they ab to mujhe aisa lag raha tha ki kahi main kisi musibat mein naa fass jau….achanak oosi shaam mujhe call aaya nazdeeki ilaake ke thaane se wo ek jhinjhodh dene waali khabar thi

main girta padta gaadi speed mein drive karte hue ghar se nikla jald hi main ghaati ke kareeb pahucha...toh paaya waha police ke log khade they main daudta unke paas aaya meri aankhe fhati reh gayi ye wohi gaadi thi jismein baithkar shaiza ke abba oose leke gaye they main bhaukla gaya police ne mujhe shaant kiya…"kya hua tha kahan hai meri shaiza aur unke abba?"

"darasal unki gaadi waapsi sheher jaane se pehle ek durghatna ka shikar ho gayi gaadi ko crane se uthaa liya gaya hai uski jaanch hogi baaki dono ko hospital ke liye bhej diya gaya tha aap ke baarein mein humhe maalum driver se chala jiski jaan bach gayi hai usne bataaya ki gaadi ekdum se bekaabu huyi aur pahadh ki choti se sidha behti nadi ke ghati mein jaa giri...driver pehle hi mauke par gaadi ke khule darwaaje se kudkar apni jaan bacha paaya hai aap mere saath hospital chaliye"

mere zehan mein wohh rooh ka chehra jaise ghumne laga ye accident nahi balki oos rooh ka kiyadhara tha…..main jab hospital pahucha toh doctor ne jo khabar sunaai wohh mujhe todh dene liye kaafi tha main wohi gir pada…..police ne hi mujhe sambhaala tha...shaiza ke abba ki jaan bach toh gai thi lekin wo coma mein jaa chuke they sar par gehri chot aane se….aur shaiza ki maut ho chuki thi uski laash morgue room mein padi thi main wahan pahucha..

jab maine uski laash se kapra hataaya toh main dekh na paaya aakhir mein jo oos rooh ne chaha tha wohi hua mere ankho ke saamne shaiza ki baddtar haalat mein laash padi thi chehre aur jism ke tamaam jagho par bare bare kaanch ke tukde fase huye they pura jism khoon se zakhmi tha

"i m sorry mr.adam aapki wife ab is duniya mein nahi rahi yaha laane se pehle hi wo haadse mein on the spot marr chuki thi"

ye sunkar main kuch nahi keh paaya laash par kapra dhak diya gaya….gaadi mein divorce paper jo mile they aur jo byaan mujhse liya gaya uske baad postmertum report se ye baat confirm thi ki ye mehez accident tha ismein meri koi sazish nahi thi lekin talaaq dene ki wajah jaankar police ne chaanbin kar mere pichle rishte ka pata lagaa liya main kuch din tak unke nigaah mein raha baar baar taftish huyi puchtaach huyi par unhein rooh ki kahani se bilkul bhi yakeen nahi hua….talaaq karwaane ki wajah unhein hazam nahi huyi talaaq ki pehel maine ki thi is baat ko leke wo naye naye sirhe se is haadse ko kahani dene lage jab mera aur sheher ke jaane maane rasukh islam sahab ka rishta unhe malum chala toh aur shaq ghaada unka hota gaya meri pichli biwi ki rahasmayi gumshudgi bhi haadsa thi ye baat unhein khatki naye sirhe se taftish chalti rahi lekin main daraa nahi kyunki main toh pehle hi tut chuka tha ek din ek wakil chaanbin ke dauran mere aur inspector ke baatcheet ke beech aaya jab meri interrogation chal rahi thi….wo islam sahab ka bheja wakil tha mere rihayi ke orders they islam sahab ko thaane bulaana unke bas ki nahi thi lekin wo hairan huye ki beti ke haadse ke bawjud unka mere sath ab bhi rishta kaayam tha wo wakil meri hi rihaayi ke liye aaya tha police ne fhir aur mujhe nahi bulaaya main waapis oosi haunted baungalow pe pahucha…

naukar kaka ne bataaya unhe meri bahut fikar huyi thi….maine unke sahare ki qadr ki...oosi shaam islam sahab mujhse rubaru huye wo mere ghar pehli dafa mujse milane aaye they

"toh tumne dusri shaadi karke talaaq tak kar diya tha kisse puchkar tumne itni bari ijajat li itna bada kadam uthaaya meri beti ke jaate hi niqaah?"......islam sahab ne kadakte huye ghurrte huye mujhse pucha

"aapne kabhi meri parwah nahi ki toh fhir mujhe riha kyu karaaya aap to yahi chahte they hamesha ki aap mujhse apni mari huyi beti ka badla le jo sirf mehez ek accident!"

"accident nahi maara tha tumne oose sabut haalat kuch bhi kahe mera dil nahi maan sakta ki tumne meri beti ko jaanbhukar marrne chodh diya tha oos raat tumhari wajah se wo aaj is duniya mein nahi hai laash tak naseeb nahi huyi mujhe uski dekhni na jaane kya hua tha? agar main aaj wakil nahi bhejta toh tum abhi salaakho ke piche tabtak sadte jabtak kuch asliyat nahi nikalti lekin jaante ho tum kyu bahar ho? kyunki wo aisa nahi chahti kayi raaton se wo mere khwab mein aakar tumhe rihaa karne ki maang karti hai marrne ke bawjud oosne tumse pyaar karna tumhari parwah karna kuch nahi chodha"

"aapki oosi beti ki wajah se ek begunaah ki jaan chali gayi islam sahab maanta hoo main aapka ahesaan ke tale dabaa hamesha se raha hoo lekin is baat ko aap bhi nakaar nahi sakte ki maine harpal aapki beti ko chaha hai"

"agar maine chaha hota toh uske jaane ke baad tumhe is ghar is jaayejaad aur business se alag kar diya hota lekin ek mazbur baap ke naate maine tumpar taras khaa kar uska shouhar hai ye sochkar tumhe chodh diya"

"main manta hun maine gunaah kiya dusra niqaah karke lekin uski saza aapki beti ne mujhe de di hai wo parwaah nahi uska inteqaam hai wo muje tanha akela bebas karke din pe din tadpaana chahti hai jaise jeete ji usne kiya"

"shut up u son of a".....sun nahi sake islam sahab unhone mujhpar thappad uthaane ki koshish ki par ruk gaye main gambhir muzrim bana un budhi nazaro ko dekh raha tha jisme mere liye sirf nafrat aur gussa tha

"mujhe chup karaane ya maarne se sachai nahi badlegi islam sahab aapki beti ki rooh jaag chuki hai aur wo isi ghar mein mauzud hai wo waapis aa chuki hai oosi ne wo accident karwaaya oosi ki wajah se main aaj fhir tanha hoo aur yakeen maaniye maine kabhi uske sath dhoka nahi kiya main toh khud oos raat marr jaana chahta tha par kismat ko mujhe jeete jee maarna zyada manzur hai main shaiza se niqaah nahi karna chahta tha oosse mazburan maine niqaah kiya uske gharwaalo aur uska mujhpar dabaav tha lekin aapki beti ne mujhe juda karke hi maana main vaada karta hun jabtak zinda hoo kabhi kisi aur ke saath rishta nahi jodunga jo aapki beti chahegi wohi karunga wohi karunga"......maine rote huye islam sahab se kaha

islam sahab ne kuch aur nahi kaha wo waha se nikal gaye….lekin main janta tha wo is baat ko nakaar nahi sakte they ki us ghar mein unki beti ki rooh mauzud hai wo waapis aa chuki hai jise khwab mein unhone dekha wo unhi ki beti ki bhatakti rooh thi….

us din ke baad mere zindagi mein fhir veerapan aur tanhai chaa gaya….jaise uske jaane ke baad chaayi huyi thi

                                    -----------------------

adam ne apni kahani khatam ki toh usne paaya ki zaara jo bahut dair se khaamosh uski aapbeeti sun rahi thi nigaahon se uske aansu beh rahe they….adam ne kursi se uthkar thode dur chalkar teherte huye ek gehri saas li...usne piche mudkar zaara ki taraf dekha

"ye toh mehez dusri kahani thi zaara ab tum hi samajh sakti ho ki meri parwah karne wala ya mere kareeb aane ki koshish karne waale ka kya anjaam ho sakta hai? main shaiza se mohabbat toh nahi karta tha lekin uski mohabbat ki qadr zarur karta tha uske zidd ne hi uski jaan le li mujhse dur rehne mein hi tumhari bhalaai hai zaara"

zaara uth khadi huyi usne apne aansu ponche fhir mere paas aakar wo khadi huyi…"tumne mujhe apne pehle rishte ke baarein mein khulkar nahi bataaya wo kaun thi? kya naam tha uska?"

"ab main jo kahani bataane jaa raha hoo usmein sab malum chal jayega tumhe"

"batao mujhe"....zaara ne dobara se gambhir hokar mujhse kaha

main fhirse soch ki gehraaiyo mein apne beete kal mein dubta chala gaya

Chapter 12

"ye bahut purana raaz hai bete darasal islam sahab ki pehli beti sumi ke sath bachpan mein ek ghatna ghati thi...us waqt main naya naya islam sahab ke yaha naukari karne aaya tha...ek din pura parivaar ghumne ek hill station pahucha islam sahab apni beti se bahut pyar karte they jo aaj bhi karte hai sabkuch acha khaasa chal raha tha...ekdin ek pahadi pe wo log gaye bahut gehri khaai thi unke maa baba baithe aapas mein batiya rahe they ki tabhi unhe apni beti ki cheekh sunaai di wo log fauran waha pahuche jaha unki beti akeli khel rahi thi wo wahan par nahi thi bahut taalashne par sumi ka koi pata nahi chal raha tha shaam ho gayi islam sahab ne toh chaanbin ke liye police adhikaariyo ko kaam pe laga diya tab jaakar unhe apni beti purani neher ke paas behosh padi mili

oose ghar laaya ilaaj karaaya tab jaakar wo hosh mein aayi lekin wo unki beti sumi nahi rahi thi gusse mein aati toh koi bhari nuqsaan ho jaata us choti umar mein wohh aisa kuch baat keh deti jo bare bare sunkar hairan ho jaate they ek raat maalkin ne oose chatt par se kudte huye dekh liya wo chillayi aur jab unhone niche aakar dekha toh unki beti sahi salamat thi bahut hairaani ki baat thi jaha se girkar uski haddi tut jaati wo marr jaati woh ekdum zinda sahi salamat khadi muskura rahi thi lekin jab kabhi bhi oose gussa aata toh wohh dohri awaaz mein chillati dahadhti cheezein todti psychatrist doctor aisa koi shaks bacha nahi jisse sumi ka ilaaj nahi karwaaya gaya har koi kehta tha normal hai lekin islam sahab ko baat hazam nahi huyi ek din ek mazaar ke baba aaye they malkin ke zor dene pe unhein aane diya gaya warna islam sahab toh khilaaf they aisi andhwishwaso ke unhone saaf keh diya ki unki beti toh oosi din ghaati se girke marr jaati lekin oospar oosi ilaake ka ek bhatakti huyi jinn uske shareer aur dilo dimaag pe puri tarah se savaar ho chuki hai ye bahut bada jhatka tha parivar ke liye unhone bataaya ki ise kabhi gussa mat dilaana aur iska niqaah kabhi mat karaana jabtak ye khud kisi ko pasand na kar le aur jaise jaise iski umar badhegi wo jinn bhi iske sath bari hone lagegi tab se lekar aaj itne saal baad bhi sumi ke bartav mein koi tabdiliyat nahi aayi unke saheliyo aur dosto ko bhi unki sachai nahi maalum haalaki wo bahar se normal lagti hai lekin unki kya sacchai ye sirf main aur unke parivaarwaale khaas jaante hai isliye beta tumse guzaarish hai kabhi zyada uske saamne mat jaaya karna aur kabhi oose gussa mat dilaana"

main badi dair se sunkar naukar kaka ki baat se sehmat hua us raat wo cheekhein aani band ho gayi puri raat sumi ki hi baat zehan mein ghumti rahi….aankhe jab bhaari huyi toh wohi kaano mein cheekh uski gunzti thi..

Agli subah gardener chutti pe tha isliye bagaan ki badi bdi ghaaso ko kaatne ka zimma mujhe diya gaya main ghaas ko machine se chataayi kar raha tha aur paas mein table saja aamne kursi pe islam sahab apni biwi ke sath baat kar rahe they dono ko maid chai aur nashta dekar andar chali gayi toh itne mein wo chai ki chuskiya lete huye ek baar mujhe ghure main acche se chataai karne laga taaki unke daant ka shikaar na ho jau….meri taraf se nazar hataakar unhone apni biwi se baat karna shuru kiya chehre pe gambhiriyat thi sumi ki ammi bhi pareshan haal dikh rahi thi kal raat jo hua shayad oosi ke babat baat chal rahi thi...main chataai ka kaam khatam karke paido aur paudho ko paani dene laga paas pade mote pipe se dheere dheere main un dono ke kareeb kuch faasle dur paido ko paani dene pahucha unka dhyaan mujhpar nahi tha par unki baat dhyaan se sunaai de rahi thi aur agar wo dhyaan dete toh mujhe kaam mein dhyaan magan hi samajhte…

"kuch bhi kahiye kal raat sumi ke daure ne dono behano ko daraa diya tha aap oose kuch din ke liye ghar ke dusre kamre mein band kyu nahi rakhte?"

"dekho sumi ki maa bakwas mat karo wo koi bimaar ya koi pagal hai jo oose kahi dusre kamre mein band rakhu aur ek jawan ladki se uski azaadi cheenu"

"aakhir kabtak aisa chalega? main toh kehti hoo koi acha ladka dhundhkar uska niqaah tayy kar dijiye oose ladke ke tasveer dikhaaiye oose manaaiye wo aapki baat nahi taalegi aur ho sakta hai khuda ke fazal se sab theek ho jaaye"

"aisa tum sochti ho? kya mujhe apni beti ke liye fikar nahi hai khair mere nazar mein ek se ek ladka hai lekin mujhe darr hai ki kahi wo meri beti ki kamzori ko jaankar oose baad mein jeena mushkil na kare main darrta hun kahi uske haath se kisi ka khoon!".......kehte kehte wo tham gaye unki biwi ke bhi chehre pe bhaari fikar ke bhaav aaye

islam sahab ekdum se uthe aur bina biwi se baat kiye pareshaan bhaav se waha se chale gaye main bhi kaam khatam karke unki baatein sunkar sochne laga ki waaqayi beti ki wajah se maa baap bhi pareshan they….lekin mujhe kya? meri haisiyat toh naukar ki hai ye unka zyadti parivarik maamla tha ismein mujhe zyada gehrai mein jaane ki zarurat thi bhi nahi...main waha se jaate jaate sumi ki ammi ko pareshan chinta mein duba dekha khair unhe isse faraq nahi pada ki unke ghar ki baat mujhe malum chal chuki thi lekin dopahar ko naukar kaka ne mujhe bataaya tha ki islam sahab ne saaf unhein ahetiyat kiya tha ki agar maine kal kuch suna tha toh oose nazarandaaz kare aur naa hi us waqt bungalow ki taraf rukh kare aur kabhi bhi kisi bahar waale ke aage main apna munh na kholu ki unki beti ke saath kya hota hai? sunkar toh mujhe khauff laga lekin maine fhir naukar kaka se vaada bhi kiya ki ye zikar main kabhi naukri chodhne ke baad bhi kisi ke aage nahi karunga

                                 ----------------------------

Waqt toh guzar gaya lekin wo waqya main bhul nahi paaya...main hamesha ki tarah us raat bhi islam sahab ki gulaami karke main kamre mein aate hi khaana khaaye so gaya….sard raat thi woh achanak koi dhai baje meri neend khuli samne waali khidki se koi kaala saaya guzara meri aankho ne saaf dekha bahar lawn ke ird gird pole ki roshniya jalti thi...jiski roshni sidha kamre mein padti thi
main razaai faikhe bistar se utha darwaja khola toh bahar ki khaamosh sard hawa mujpe padi….sardi ki wajah se charo taraf kohra chaaya hua tha…

main torch jalaye bahar nikla achanak kisi ke gungunane ki awaz mujhe us ho ho karti hawao ke shorr mein sunai dene lagi...kohre mein chalte huye main us awaz ka picha karne laga achanak maine paaya ek ladki white gown pehne bagaan mein tehel rahi thi uski peeth meri taraf thi zulfein khuli huyi thi pehchanne mein wo awaz mujhe sumi ki lagi…."kahi koi pagal ya mansik bimar toh nahi hai itni raat gaye yeh jinn wagaira par mujhe yakeen nahi lagta lekin naukar kaka ki baat jhoot bhi nahi ho sakti".....main gambhir hokar uske piche piche chalne laga kuch dair mein ghane kohre mein naa jaane wo kahan palak jhapakte gum ho gayi?

main samajh nahi paaya usi waqt bahar galiyaare se mujhe kayi kutto ki ek saath rone ki awaz aane lagi...main ghabraaye waapis apne kamre pahucha...darwaaja lagakar main jaise piche muda toh meri saansein atak gayi main ekdum se darwaaje se sat gaya kyunki saamne sumi ekdum se khadi mujhe ghurr rahi thi...usi white gown mein gulaabi nigaaho se mujhe aisa laga ki aaj uspar kuch sawaar tha main ghabrake kaanpte huye khada hua

"a..ap yaha par? kisi ne dek.h li.ya to..h gazab ho jayega sumi mam aap andar kaise aayi?".......maine kaanpte huye usse sawal kiya

wo kuch nahi boli mere kareeb aayi mujhe ek baar to laga ki kahi neend mein toh nahi hai...usne mujhe ghurrte ghurrte kehna shuru kiya

"tum mera picha kyu kar rhe they?"
"n..ahii tohh wo mujhe aisa laga koi bahar itni raat gaye chehel kadmi kar raha hai to ho sakta hai koi ghuspaithiya ho"

"jhoot bol rahe ho tumhe janna tha ki meri sacchai kya hai? janna chahte ho ki mujhpar kya hai?"

main ghabra gaya usne saqti se oos baat ko dobara dohraaya...maine naa mein sar hilaaya…."i m sorry mam muj..hse b..hul ho gayi aage se kabhi aapke aas paas bhi nahi bhatkunga i promise"

"hahahha hahaha".......wo pagalo ki tarah hassne lagi main anjaano ki tarah oose dekhne laga

usne ekdum se kasskar mera gala pakad liya...main darr gaya uske chehre pe saqti aa gayi aankhe khaa jaane waali nazaro se mujhe ghurrne lagi ab toh jaise saans ghutne lagi...main nakam koshisho se uske haath ko apne gale se chudhate huye chatpatane laga...ahesaas hua ki usmein kitni taqat thi usne mujhe gale se zameen se kuch faasla hawa mein utha diya meri aankhe dehshat se kaanp gayi wohi dum ghutne se jaan bhi jaane lagi...main tadapta saans kheechne ki nakam koshish karne laga...main haath pao patakne laga…"summii mam plss"....maine ghutti awaz mein kaha lekin uski aankhe surkh gulaabi ho chuki thi wo shaitani muskurahat dete huye aur kasske mere gale ko dabane lagi….mera pura chehra laal ho gaya aur aankho se paani girne laga….ki theek tabhi apni aankhe bhaari hoti mehsus huyi aisa laga main ab nahi bachunga...achanak usne mera gala chodh diya main sidha aundhe munh uski pakad se chutte hi zameen pe gir pada...apne gale ko pakde main khaasne laga bahut taqleef ho rahi thi ukadhti saanson ko kaabu paane mein..achanak mujhpe khauff aur dum ghutne se behoshi taari hone lagi aur kab meri aankhe bhari hokar band huyi mujhe malum nahi…

Jab agle din main jaga toh naukar kaka jagaakar uthaaye wo bahut pareshan haal mein meri halat ko dekh rahe they…..main ekdum se bhauklakar uth baitha bahar suraj ki tej roshni ghar mein daakhil ho rahi thi...main naukar kaka ka haath thaame badhawas bolne lag gaya..

"w..wohh kaka wohh aayi thi yaha usne mera gala dabakar mujhe hawa mein utha diya uspar kuch sawaar tha kaka wo mujhe maar daalegi wohh"

"arre bete shaant ho jaiye kya hua? sab khairiyat toh hai tumhara darwaza toh andar se band tha wo to ganimat ki piche ke darwaje se main yaha pahucha tumhein bistar par nidhal behosh paaya ache bhale gehri neend se toh uthe ye kya kahein jaa rahe ho kaun aya?"

"kaka lekin main bistar par kaise pahucha? main toh niche zameen pe behosh pada tha"......meri baat sunkar kaka kuch samajh nahi paaye

maine lambi saansein lekar ek baar mein hi kal raat ka sab waqya unke aage rakha...sunkar wo dang reh gaye aur bare hi azib nazaro se mujhe dekhne lage

"lekin bete kamra toh andar se band tha tohh woh bahar nikalii kaise? aur farsh par hone ke bajaay mujhe aap bistar pe soye mile...kya ye koi bura khwab bhi to ho sakta hai?"

"kaka ye mera koi bura khwab nahi haqeeqat hai warna main itne dair tak soya pada nahi hota main behosh tha aap naa aate to na jane kab neend khulti ab to mujhe waaqayi bahut darr lag raha hai zarur wo mere saath khel khel rahi hai kyunki main uska raaz jaan jo gaya hun"

"dekho bete ise apne darmiyan hi rakho agar bhul se bhi islam sahab ko ye khabar pahuchi ki tumhare saath jo kuch bhi hua unki beti ki wajah se toh ho sakta hai koi mushkil tumpar aa jaye chup rehne mein hi bhalaai hai bete is ghar mein nazarein nichi aur kaan band karke hi rehna allah sab theek kar denge main toh bataana bhul gaya ki islam sahab subah se tumhe dhundh rahe they maine hi keh diya ki tumhari tabiyat kharab hogi bahut naraz huye ek baar unke aate hi haziri de dena aur haan bete is ghatna ko bhul jao isi mein bhalaai hai"

naukar kaka ki ahetiyat rakhne ki baat par sehmat hone ke alawa mere paas koi chaara nahi tha waaqayi kuch toh tha sumi mein usne mujhe kitni taqat se mera gale pakde hawa mein utha diya tha kaise mera gala dabaane lagi aur uska wo shaitani muskurahat aur ghurrti nigah lekin main bistar par aaya kaise kahi usi ne mujhe uthaakar chalo aisa hua bhi ho toh band darwaze se wo bahar gayi kaise? jab darwaza kaka ko subah andar se band mila….sumi ab mere dimaag par haavi hone lagi….

shaam ko main jab islam sahab ke paas pahucha toh wo apne living hall mein baithe secretary ke saath kuch business meeting ki baat kar rahe they mujhe dekhte hi unhe jaise koi faraq nahi pada kuch der baad secretary ke waha se jaate hi islam sahab mere rubaru huye….

"maanf kijiyega sir wo darsal subah se tabiyat theek nahi thi toh aankh dairi se khuli"

"hmm dekho adam hamare yaha kaam karne wala har shaks ki jarurat humhe har din padti hai tumhari ek din ki na haaziri bharne se humare bahut kaam adhure reh jaate ek din se zyada waqt na lage tabiyat theek hone mein samjhe"

"ji sir"

"aur muje malum hai ki tumhari koi tabiyat nahi bigadi tumhare kareebi naukar kaka se humhe sabkuch maalum chal chuka hai kyunki wo humse kuch nahi chupa sakte us raat ka waqya aur kal raat jo kuch tumne dekha aur tumhare sath hua oose bhul jao us baat ke gehrai mein jaane ki koshish bhi mat karna samjhe"

"ji sir"......main samajh chuka tha haan mein hi jawab deta raha aur islam sahab ne saqti se jaise mujhe agaah kiya

"park 5 restaurant yaha se 5 km dur hai waha meri beti apni behan ke sath mauzud hai shaam 7 bajne se pehle wo ghar mein honi chahiye so now u may leave and pick them from there kaam pe lg jao"

main kuch keh nahi paaya unhe mere haalat ki parwah nahi huyi ulte apni beti ka raaz pe parda daalne ke liye mujhe saqti se unhone khaamosh rehne behtar kaha...main unke orders ke maante huye garage se gaadi nikaalkar sumi aur uski behano ko lene unke bataaye pate par restaurant pahucha...main ye soch raha tha ki main sumi se kaise nazar mila paunga kal raat ka ghatna fhir mere nazaro ke samne ghumne laga...kuch dair baad mere phone par sumi ka msg aaya main parking area se mor kaantkar sidha restaurant ke saamne aa khada hua...sumi hasste khelte apni behano ke sath bahar aa rahi thi...maine fauran gadi ka fhatak khol diya sumi ki behane pehle baithi aur uske baad dheere dheere sumi daakhil hone lagi usne ek baar palatkar mujhe aise dekha maano jaise yaad dilaana chah rahi thi ki mere sath kal raat usne kya kiya tha?

main nazare fhaire uske baithte hi gaadi ka darwaja lagakar saamne apni driving seat par pahucha..gaadi start ki aur waapis ghar ki taraf moda pure raaste main baar baar upar lage sheeshe se sumi ki taraf dekh padta aisa laga nahi jaise wo kal raat waali wohi sumi ho...wo aapas mein hass khelkar baatcheet kar rahe they...darbaan ne main gate khola toh hamari gaadi andar daakhil huyi...lawn ka ghaira kaatkar gaadi main darwaaje pe ruki to baari baari pehle uski behane hi utari….achanak sumi gaadi se uthne ke lehze se jaise gate kholkar bahar niklegi usne meri taraf kaatil nigaaho se dekha ekdum chupchaap main saamne hi dekhta raha fhir wo utarkar chali gayi achanak meri nigah upar ke sheeshe se jo oose ghurne ke liye uthi toh apne gale pe bane laal nishaan pe huyi maine apne gale ko gaur se dekha uske ird gird zor se dabaaye rakhne se jaise laal nishan they main jaan gaya woh ghatna haqeeqat tha…main sumi ko darwaje se andar jaate dekh raha tha wo ek dum se teherkar piche mudkar mujhe fhir dekhi fhir aise ghurrne lagi jaise kal raat jo khauff usne mere dil mein chodha tha wo mere chehre pe barqarar hai ki nahi is baat ka jayeza le rahi thi
