Mega Update
Update - 154 ~ The Prestige's Ordeal
Ab tak...
Kintu, samasya kabhi na aaye aisa kaise ho sakta tha. Jaha abhi sab kuch accha chal raha tha ki itne me hi Bhumika ko ek call aaya. Usne call receive kar jab baat suni toh uski aankhein hairat me fel gayi.
Phone cut karte hi woh Veer ko dekhi,
Bhumika : Veer!! Ek problem ho gayi hai.
Magar woh akeli nahi thi. Truck se Prachi daudte hue aayi aur jaldbazi me boli,
Prachi : Ek nahi-! Do problem hai!!
Veer : Huh!!???
Ab aage...
Kehte hai ki bhagwan jab deta hai toh chhappar faad ke deta hai. Magar, kayi baar aisa bhi hota hai ki ek musibat ki jagah kaho anek musibatein saath me hi aa jaaye.
Veer iss samay isi duwidha me tha. Ek taraf woh Bhumika ko dekh raha tha jo chinta me uske saamne khadi thi toh wahi dusri taraf Prachi ko jo food truck se nikal ke jaldbaazi me aayi thi.
Samasyao ne darwaza khat-khata diya tha. Akhir, chal kya raha tha yaha? Veer ne pehle Bhumika se hi puchna sahi samjha.
Veer : Pehle aap bataiye! Kya hua hai?
Bhumika (frowns) : Veer! Ek bohut badi problem ho gayi hai.
Veer : Hotel me kuch-!?
Bhumika (nods) : Haan!
Veer : Kya dikkat hai?
Bhumika : Woh- Woh Head Chef-!!!
Veer : Head Chef?
Bhumika : Hmm! He's very troublesome to deal with. Pehle bhi woh kayi baar aisa kar chuka hai.
Veer : Kya kiya hai usne?
Bhumika : Baaki chefs ko bhadkana. Pay increase karne ke liye. Mein pehle hi 2 baar payment badha chuki hu. Magar-!! Oh no! Firse call aa raha hai. Veer! Mujhe jaana hoga!
Veer (nods) : Ek kaam kariye. Aap pohuchiye, mein aapke peeche peeche aata hu.
Bhumika : Alright!
Bhumika jaldbaazi me daudte hue waha se apni car ki orr nikli. Par, aisi sthiti me uska akela jaana theek nahi tha. Isliye,
Veer : Arohi dii?
Arohi (nods) : Mmm~ I got it!
Woh toh jaise bina kuch kahe hi samajh gayi. Bina Veer ko jawaab diye woh waha se tezz qadmo ke saath Bhumika ke peeche peeche chal di. Aur idhar Veer ke hontho par ek halki si muskaan saj gayi. Woh fir Prachi ki orr muda,
Veer : Ab tum batao! Kya hua hai?
Prachi : W-Woh-!
Veer : Ghabrane ki zaroorat nahi. Khul ke batao!
Prachi : Okay! Actually, baat ye hai ki- Ab aap toh jaante ho ki aapke kitne food trucks hai. Magar, aap harr ek ko daily dekhne nahi aa sakte. Right?
Veer : Mmm-hmm!
Prachi : Toh aaye din workers badalte rehte hai. Koi jaata hai toh koi naya aa jaata hai.
Veer : So?
Prachi : So, hua ye hai ki- Sir! Kaushik naam ka ek ladka hai.
Veer : Kaushik?
Prachi (nods) : Hmm! Woh morning waala breakfast ka jo ek aur food truck hai usme rehta hai. Uske saath ek aur ladka hai. Uske saath wala ladka accha hai lekin ye Kaushik-
Veer : Kuch kiya hai kya?
Prachi : N-Nahi!
Veer : Toh?
Prachi : Ab ho sakta hai mein zyada soch rahi hu. P-Par Sonali di jo hai-
Veer : Sonali ka kya?
Prachi : Sir, woh Kaushik aaj kal har roz shaam ko yaha aata hai aur fir Sonali di se meethi meethi baatein karta hai.
Veer : Hmm?
Prachi : Aur Sonali di use bas daant deti hai magar- Mujhe lagta hai jaise Kaushik ki baatein unhe pasand bhi aati hai.
Veer : I see! So, what's the problem?
Prachi : Problem ye hai ki- Mujhe lagta hai ki woh Kaushik kuch theek nahi hai.
Veer : Aisa kyu bhala? Agar woh theek nahi tha toh use hire kisne kiya?
Prachi : Sonali di ne hi. Uske kaam me koi dikkat nahi hai Sir.
Veer : Fir kya dikkat hai? Behaviour?
Prachi : Haan! Ho sakta hai mein kuch zyada overthink kar rahi hu. Mujhe jo laga woh mene aapko bata diya. Mujhe woh ladka theek nahi lagta.
Veer : Theek nahi lagta as in? Kya kuch gadbad kar raha hai? Ya kar sakta hai?
Prachi : Actually-
Veer : Prachi! Tumhe hich-kichane ki zaroorat nahi. Owner mein hu. Tum kaho! Tumhara koi kuch nahi ukhaad sakta. Just say!
Prachi : O-Okay! Shayad Kaushik-
Veer : Hmm?
Prachi : Sonali di ko paana chaahta hai.
Veer : Kya Sonali ko Kaushik pasand hai?
Prachi : Shayad haan! Like woh daant lagati hai use. Seedhe muh baat nahi karti par mene unko uski baato par muskuraate dekha hai.
Prachi ki baat par Veer ko thodi hairani hui. Sonali kisi ladke ki baato par muskura rahi thi?
Use Suman ko kahi gayi apni hi baat yaad aa gayi~
'Agar woh kisi aur ko chaahegi, toh mein use jaane dunga!'
Veer ko yaad hai ki usne isi kaaran kabhi Sonali ko Suman aur Aabha ki tarah apna slave nahi maana tha. Kyuki, ho sakta tha ki Sonali use apne maalik ke roop me sweekaar na kare. Ho sakta tha ki use koi aur ladka pasand aa jaaye.
Shayad aaj woh din aa chuka tha. Veer ne ek gehri saans li.
Veer : Agar use pasand hai. Toh kya dikkat hai?
Veer ko kehte hue pata nahi kyu accha nahi lag raha tha lekin fir bhi usne keh diya. Prachi ne jab ye suna toh woh hairat me use ghoor ke dekhi.
Prachi : A-Aap ko parvaah nahi?
Veer : Hmm? Isme parvaah kaisi? Sonali ko agar koi pasand hai toh acchi baat hai na woh toh-!?
Prachi : Eh? I-I thought-!!
Bechari Prachi duwidha me fas ke reh gayi. Use laga tha ki Veer aur Sonali ke beech kuch chal raha tha isliye woh bhaagi bhaagi daud ke ye baat use bataane aayi thi. Par yaha toh aisa prateet ho raha tha jaise Veer aur Sonali ke beech kuch tha hi nahi.
Woh toh ye soch ke aayi thi ki woh unn dono ke pyaar ko bacha legi. Par-
Veer : Sonali samajhdar hai. In case kuch gadbad tumhe lagti hai toh mujhe call kar dena.
Prachi : Mene aapko abhi toh bataya. Woh ladka theek nahi hai.
Veer : Hmm! Mene sunn liya hai Prachi. Par tumhare paas abhi kuch proof bhi nahi hai. Isliye keh raha hu, kuch gadbad lage toh mujhe call kar dena. You have my number, right?
Prachi : H-Haan!
Veer : I'll leave then!
Prachi : B-But-!!
Veer uski baat sune bagerr hi food truck ki orr chal diya. Andar Sonali dishes banaane me lagi hui thi.
Toh wahi road ke uss paar ek aur food truck khada hua tha. Jisme Kaushik aur ek aur worker maujood the.
Kaushik Sonali ko dekh apne lund ko masalne me laga hua tha. Aur uska saath driving seat par baitha tha.
Worker : Dekh! Mein abhi bhi keh raha hu. Woh teri pohuch ke baahar ki ladki hai. Upar se owner ki koi rishtedar lagti hai mujhe toh. Tujhse nahi patne waali.
Kaushik : Abe, tu jaanta hi kya hai ladkiyo ke baare me. Dekhta jaa bas tu. Gaav ki chhori hai. Chaahta toh mein uss Prachi ko set kar sakta tha. Magar, woh yahi Mumbai ki hai. Uss saali ko mere upar kuch shaq sa hai.
Worker : Woh ladki samajhdar hai!
Kaushik : Lekin, ye Sonali gaav se hai. Ise sheher ka utna gyaan nahi. Ise set karna asaan hai. Saali ko chodne me kya maza aayega. Lita lita ke chodunga.
Worker : Mein abhi bhi keh raha hu. Uss se dur hi reh.
Kaushik : Kya jhandu aadmi hai bey tu? Kabhi choot maari hai?
Worker : Nahi!
Kaushik : Bas yahi toh dikkat hai tumhari. Abe jaise ek nashedi insaan bina nashe ke reh nahi sakta na? Wese hi ye lund hai. Ek baar ye choot ka swaad chakh le na toh bina choot maare nahi rehta.
Worker : Choot ke chakkar me lene ke dene bhi pad jaate hai. Aur isliye, mein apne kaam se hi matlab rakhta hu.
Kaushik : Haan toh tu wahi kar. Mere kaam me taang mat ada. Mere lund ko choot ki zaroorat hai. Agar ye set ho gayi, toh fir kehne hi kya. Naukri bhi karte raho, free ki choot bhi maarte jao. Hahahaha! Pagaar ki pagaar. Upar se food truck ke maalik ki sambandhi hai woh. Sab set hai.
Worker (sighs) : Tu jaane aur tera kaam jaane.
Kaushik apne saathi ki baato ko ek kaan se sunn dusre kaan se nikal diya. Tabhi, uski nazar Veer par padi jo Sonali ke food truck me jaa raha tha.
Kaushik : Iski maa ka- Jaldi, gaadi waha laga.
Worker : Kyu? Kya hua?
Kaushik : Abe yahi owner hai na?
Worker (squints) : H-Haan shayad-! Haan yahi hai. Veer Sir!
Kaushik : Haan toh gaadi laga waha. Turant!
Worker : Haan haan!
Kaushik ke saathi ne food truck chaalu kar aage badhaya aur U-turn lete hue woh road ke iss side par aa gaya jaha Sonali ka food truck maujood tha.
Jab tak ye log yaha aa rahe the tab tak Veer aur Sonali ke beech alag vartalaap chal raha tha.
Veer : Sab theek toh chal raha hai na?
Sonali : Hmm? Aaj tumhe itna parvaah kaise hone lagi? Aise toh kabhi jhaakne nahi aate.
Veer : Kya mein puch nahi sakta?
Sonali : Puch sakte ho! Bilkul puch sakte ho. Sab kuch tumhara hi toh hai. Jo chaahe karo! Bhala mein kaun hoti hu-?
Veer (sighs) : Mera matlab ye hai ki kahi koi gadbad toh nahi hai. Koi dikkat toh nahi hai na? Sab theek hai?
Sonali ne do pal ke liye use dekha fir muh fula ke mudte hue boli,
Sonali : Hmm! Sab theek hai!
Veer (nods) : Alright! Agar koi- Agar koi problem ho toh mujhse share kar sakti ho. Okay?
Sonali (confused) : Tumhari tabiyat toh theek hai na?
Veer : I-!! Leave it! Apna dhyaan rakhna. Aur, apne aas paas ke logo ka bhi.
Sonali : Huhh!? Kya matlab? Aaj subah subah kahi sarr bhidwa ke aaye ho kya? Kaisi behki behki baatein kar rahe ho?
Veer kuch keh paata ki itne me Kaushik apne saathi ke sang truck leke haazir tha.
Window se nikal ke hi woh haath hilaate hue chillaaya,
Kaushik : Arre! Haha! Sir! Aaj mile ho aap! Warna kabhi darshan hi nahi hue aap ke toh batao.
Uske aate hi,
'Check!'
Veer ne usko poori tarah se scan kar liya. Kahi koi gadbad nazar nahi aayi. Kaushik ek aam ladka hi tha. Thoda awara-gardi karne waala tha magar kaam uska theek tha. Koi chor, gunda, mawali nahi tha woh. Jab Veer ne ye dekha ki kahi kuch gadbad nahi hai. Toh usne ek raahat ki saans li.
Kya iska matlab Prachi bewajah hi chintit ho rahi thi?
Prachi, jo theek unke saath khadi hui thi woh Kaushik ko aata dekh ke hi tension me aa gayi.
Veer ne idhar Kaushik ke aate hi uski baat ka jawaab diya,
Veer : Ohh! Naye ho?
Kaushik : Ji Sir!
Veer : Kya naam?
Kaushik : Ji Kaushik!
Veer : Alright! Acche se kaam karna.
Kaushik : Aap fiqr mat karo Sir! Mein apna kaam poori lagan se karta hu. Lekin, aaj aap se ek permission lena chaahta hu. Umeed hai aap mana nahi karoge.
Veer : Kaisi permission?
Kaushik : Woh kya hai na, kuch dino pehle pradarshani lagi hai yahi paas me. Mujhe jaana tha zara.
Veer (nods) : Theek hai! Tum jaldi jaa sakte ho.
Kaushik : Na na na na! S-Sirf mein nahi!
Veer : Toh?
Kaushik : Ahem! Woh kya hai na! Ab akela mein kya karunga Sir waha. Saath me koi hona chahiye na? Sundar si pradarshani ko dekhne ke liye ek sundari bhi toh honi chahiye na saath me? Hai na?
Veer : Bilkul!
Veer ne keh toh diya magar uske chehre par koi bhaav nahi the. Woh Kaushik ko aise dekh raha tha jaise kisi namoone ko dekh raha ho.
[Oh my~ Look at this worthless ant! A toad wishing to eat swan meat.]
Pari ke muh se bhi Kaushik ke liye beizzati hi nikli. Do kaudi ka ladka uske Master se hi unki hi bandi ko ghumaane ki permission maang raha tha. What a joke!
Magar-
Sonali ne jab Kaushik ki baatein suni, toh woh hass padi.
'Hmm?'
[Oh! Lagta hai~ Tumne apna swaad ise nahi chakhaya. What a mistake you have made my baby~ Isliye kehti hu. Forget all this. Come to me! Surrender to me! Call me 'Mommy' and I will make you the most powerful man in this world.]
'Please stop!!!'
Veer Pari se baat karne ke mood me nahi tha abhi. Sonali ne Kaushik ki baat sunn Veer ko dekha jaise maano woh dekhna chaah rahi ho ki Veer kaise react karta hai.
Veer (sighs) : No! This is work time. Tum khud jaana chaahte ho, koi manahi nahi hai. Jaa sakte ho. Par, staff me se kisi aur ko apne sang le jaana? Ye mein allow nahi kar sakta. Shaam hone waali hai aur ab rush hours rahenge. So, it's a strict 'NO' from my side.
Veer ka jawaab sunte hi jaise Kaushik ke muh pe 12 baj gaye. Kintu, usne aisa dikhaya nahi. Farzi muskan liye woh hassa aur punah bola,
Kaushik : Hahahaha! Arre kya Sir? Subah se din tak itna toh kaam kiya hai humne. Aur mein jaanta hu, sundari ka bhi ghoomne ka mann hoga. Ahem! Mera matlab hai Sonali ji ka! *winks*
Kaushik Sonali ko hi sundari keh ke itni derr se sambodhit kar raha tha. Jiske chalte, Sonali bas nazre ferr muskuraaye jaa rahi thi. Ye ladka roz uske paas kisi na kisi bahane se aaya karta aur roz apni fizool baato se use entertain karta.
Par kahi na kahi, ab uski fizool baatein hi Sonali ko jaise pasand aane lagi thi. Galti uski nahi thi. Balki, galti kisi ki bhi nahi thi.
Gaav ki ek aam ladki hone ke kaaran, Sonali ke standards ladko ko lekar behad hi low the. Shuru se hi woh apne baap Pushpendra aur uske bete Amit jaiso ko dekhti aayi thi. Jo ek number ke nalle, jaahil, gawaar aur nashedi aadmi the.
Aisi biraadri me rehne ke baad, Sonali ko ladke me bas itna hi chahiye rehta tha ki koi use sukhi rakh sake. Uski qadr kare. Bas!! Yahi the uske standards aur uski maangein.
Veer jaisa ladka uski expectations se bhi kahi zyada tha. Upar se uski khud ki maa, aur bhabhi apni taangein fela ke apne aap ko Veer ke prati samarpit kar chuki thi. Kahi na kahi, Sonali ke antarmann me ye dhaarna thi ki Veer bhala use kyu chaahega?
Uske paas toh ladkiyo ki line lagi hui thi. Magar maajra toh kuch aur hi tha, jo bechari woh nahi jaanti thi. Kisi aur ladke ka aana aur Sonali se iss tarah rubaru hona. Ye Veer ko na jaane kyu magar zara bhi pasand nahi aa raha tha.
Kaushik ke aamantran par usne turant hi naahi jataayi,
Veer : Nahi! Sonali ko kaam hai aur woh kahi nahi jayegi.
Kaushik : Arre ye kya baat hui Sir? Thoda hamare baare me bhi sochiye!
Veer : Nahi! Mene kaha na ki Sonali nahi-
Kintu,
Sonali : Kyu nahi? Kab se mein bhi subah se lage lage thak gayi thi. Pradarshani mujhe bhi dekhni thi. Na jaane kab se nahi dekhi. Isi bahaane thodi kamar bhi seedhi ho jayegi.
Veer : S-Sonali? T-Tum!?
Sonali : Haan! Kya mein nahi thakti? Mujhe bhi ghoomne ka mann karta hai. Aur kaun sa roz roz chhutti leti hu?
Veer : Tum aise kaise-!? Mujhe abhi zaroori kaam se jaana hai. Prachi akele nahi sambhal payegi. Tum iss waqt-
Sonali : Haan haan! Mujhe pata hai! Koi kaam nahi hai tumhara! Ab T.V me aa rahe ho iska matlab ye nahi ki harr waqt vyast ho tum. Ab aaye ho toh sambhalo apna yeh truck. Jaise uss din sambhala tha!?
Kaushik : Arre waah! Hahahaha! Kya baat hai! Dekha na Sir? Sab ki hi iccha hai. Mein toh kehta hu aaj aap chhutti hi dedo. Aa jao sundari- Mera matlab hai Sonali ji! Aaiye chalte hai! Thoda ghoom ke aate hai.
Bechari Sonali ye nahi jaanti thi ki abhi abhi Bhumika ki hotel me musibat aayi hai. Woh iss baat se anjaan thi. Woh nahi jaanti thi ki Veer ko abhi jald hi nikalna tha. Woh toh yahi samjhi ki Veer koi bahana bana raha tha.
Woh Kaushik se bhi parichit thi. Ye pehli baar nahi tha jab woh uske waale truck me baith rahi thi. Jab use hire kiya tha tab bhi woh Kaushik ke sang baith ke use venues ke baare me batayi thi. Kaha food truck lagana hai, kaise kaam karna hai. Toh isme ghabrane waali koi baat hi nahi thi ki woh akeli jaa rahi hai.
Saath hi woh Veer ko tang karne me kaha peeche hatati thi? Ye nirnay lete hi woh mann hi mann thahaake laga rahi thi. Soch rahi thi ki Veer chidhega aur tu-tu main-main karega.
Yahi soch woh truck se nikli aur Kaushik ke truck me chali gayi. Prachi muh khole bas nazara dekhti rahi. Jis train ko woh sahi se chalane ki koshish kar rahi thi woh toh patri se hi utar gayi. Naiyaa dubti hui nazar aa rahi thi use. Woh Veer ko bas hamdardi liye dekhi.
Aur mann me hi sochne lagi,
'Kya kar diya ye aapne Sonali di? Aapne Veer Sir jaise ladke ko haath se jaane diya? Agar mein aapki jagah hoti, toh uss Kaushik chhapri ko ghaas tak nahi daalti. Ye kya kar diya aapne?'
Sonali idhar muskaan liye seat par baithi aur truck chaalu hoke waha se chalne laga.
Magar jaise hi uski nazre Veer par tiki toh woh ghabra uthi. Veer ke chehre par taajub bhare bhaav the.
Woh Sonali ko aise dekh raha tha jaise use pehli baar dekh raha ho. Jaise usne koi aisa kaam kar diya ho jiski Veer ko umeed hi nahi thi. Achanak hi, Sonali ke dil ki dhadkane bechaini ke chalte tezz ho uthi. Par, truck chal chuka tha.
Use ye abhaas hua ki taang kheechne ke chakkar me kahi na kahi shayad usne Veer ko thes pohucha di hai. Ye sab kya ho raha tha?
Veer ke chehre par woh bhaav usne aaj se pehle kabhi nahi dekhe the. Kya uss se koi bhul ho gayi? Kya woh zyada bol gayi?
Sonali : N-Nahi-!!! R-Ruko-!
Par tab tak bohut derr ho chuki thi. Food truck kaafi aage badh chuka tha. Aur Sonali, sheeshe se Veer ke chehre ko dekh paa rahi thi. Na jaane kyu par uske dil me ek ajeeb sa dard utha.
Ab jaise sab kuch galat lag raha tha. Ye pradarshani, ye thakaan, Veer ki taang kheechna, jaise ab sab bhul chuki thi woh. Ab jaise inka koi artha hi nahi reh gaya tha. Kyuki jise sataane ke liye usne ye kiya tha wahi use hataash hue naraazgi me dekh raha tha. Veer ki wahi akhiri chhavi uske mann me bas gayi aur ek vichitr sa dard chhodh gayi.
Truck yaha se Veer ki aankhon se ojhal ho gaya. Sonali ke andar wapas jaane ki himmat bhi nahi aayi aur na hi woh kuch samajh paayi ki ye kya hua abhi abhi. Veer ko uss tarah dekh, uske dil me itna dard kyu uth raha tha?
'Iss se pehle-! Iss se pehle mene use kabhi aise nahi dekha! K-Kahi mein kuch zyada toh nahi bol gayi na? Agar woh bura maan gaya toh-!!!'
Lekin, ab sochne se kya fayda jab chidiya chug gayi khet. Woh ye nahi jaanti thi ki aane waale pal uske liye kaise hone waale the. Uske peeche khada Kaushik apni ghatiya nazro se uske badan ko taadne me laga hua tha. Muh se laar tapakne ki deri thi bas.
'Aaj toh teri seal tod hi dunga Sonali darling!!!'
***
"Ye kya kiya aapne?"
Truck ke jaate hi Veer ke peeche se Prachi ki naraazgi bhari awaaz aayi.
Veer : Kya?
Lag raha tha jaise woh Veer se bhi kahi zyada nirash thi.
Prachi : Aapne unhe jaane diya?
Veer (turns back) : Mene unhe jaane diya?
Veer ke sawaal par Prachi maun reh gayi. Usne jaane nahi diya tha. Balki, woh sabhi khud hi chale gaye the.
Veer chaahta toh ek baar me yaha maujood ek ek ki hekdi nikaal deta. Use bas 'Intimidating Presence' equip karne ki zaroorat thi. Uska aura mehsoos kar ke hi unn sab ki bolti band ho jaati. Lekin, usne aisa na kiya.
Prachi bas saantvna liye use dekhti rahi. Veer ke dil pe kya guzar rahi thi jaise woh jaanti thi.
Woh hairaan tha. Use thes pohuchi thi. Taajub iss baat ka nahi tha ki Sonali Kaushik ke saath gayi. Taajub iss baat ka tha ki Sonali uski baat ka yakeen na kar ke Kaushik ki baat ka yakeen kar chali gayi.
Kitne mahine ho chuke the use aur Sonali ko ek chhat ke neeche rehte hue? Usne apni taraf se kya kami chhodhi thi Sonali ke liye? Dard bas yahi tha ki Sonali ne ek baar bhi uski baat pe vishvaas na kiya. Aur bina poori baat sune nikal gayi. Yahi kaaran tha jo uske chehre par aashcharya tha.
Prachi : A-Ab?
Veer : You stay here! Mujhe kuch kaam hai! Mein aata hu baad me.
Prachi : O-Okay!
Woh aage kuch na keh paayi. Veer turant hi uske hawaale food truck chhodh seedha Hotel Prestige yaani ki Bhumika aur Shweta ki hotel ki orr nikal gaya.
***
Hotel Prestige
Evening ~ 6:08 PM
"Ye sab kya laga rakha hai, haan?"
"Aur nahi toh kya? Hum sab kya bewakoof hai?"
"Arre jab nahi ho paa raha hai toh lena hi nahi chahiye na order. Kaisa management hai aapka?"
"Paisa bhar dikhta hai inhe Bhai sahab. Baaki grahak ki qadr thodi hi hai."
"Sahi kaha!"
"Mein khud aadhe ghante se wait kar raha hu. Family saath me hai. Order le liya hai magar abhi tak table par paani ka jug tak nahi aaya hai. Ab batao!"
"Ye koi dhang thode hi hai. Bhai nahi ho raha aapse toh bata do. Band kar do. Hai na? Aadmi apni dusri jagah jaaye. Usko pehle hi bata do."
"Bilkul! Bilkul!"
"Haan! Samay ki barbadi hai aise me toh-"
"Mein bhi family saath aaya hu. Ab mera order pehle de diya. Aur abhi tak baccho ka order nahi aaya. Ye kya baat hui? Matlab mein unke saamne akele akele khau ab? Aap batao bhai. Family time ka matlab kya hota hai? Aadmi hotel kyu jaata hai?"
"Bilkul! Bilkul! Parivar ke saath khaane ke liye hi toh aata hai. Par ye baat ye kaha samajhte hai-"
"Sahi kaha ji. Darasal, ye aaj kal harr hotel ka bann gaya hai. Jab jab holiday waale din rehte hai ye uss din jaan boojh ke itna rush ghuswa lete hai laalach ke chakkar me. Baad me inse manage hota nahi hai."
Kayi saare log reception area me khade ek dusre se baatein karne me lage hue the aur counter ke uss side khadi Nandini jo ki hotel ki manager thi bas ghabra ke sab kuch dekh rahi thi.
Nandini : Sir! Please! Shaanti banaye rakhiye. Dekhiye! Thodi si problem ho gayi hai. Baat samajhne ki koshish kariye. Aisa kabhi hota nahi hai. Par aaj thodi si dikkat ho gayi hai.
"Arre kya dikkat ho gayi hai?"
"Haan haan! Jab nahi ho paa raha toh pehle batana chahiye."
"Shaam ke samay me ye haal hai, socho raat me kya hoga jab dinner ke liye aur families aayengi."
"Band kar do hotel."
Nandini : P-Please Sir! Try to understand.
Nandini ne kabhi bhi iss tarah ki situation se deal nahi kiya tha. Kyuki aisi naubat kabhi aayi hi nahi thi. Par aaj na jaane kiski nazar lag gayi thi unki hotel ko.
Nandini ne apne sehyogi logo ko dekha aur public ko shaant rakhne ke liye keh ke woh fauran hi andar kitchen ki orr bhaagi.
Andar aate hi woh zorr se boli,
Nandini : Ma'am!! Ma'am baahar situation ab out of control jaa rahi hai. Manage karna ab mushqil ho raha hai. Logo ka gussa badhta jaa raha hai.
Andar Bhumika chintit nazro se use dekhi. Kitchen me saamne saare chefs aur workers apna kaam dhaam chhodh ke ek jhund bana ke khade hue the.
Unn sab ke beech me hotel ka Head Chef apni guroor bhari muskaan liye khada tha. Head Chef woh hota tha jo kitchen me saare chefs ka head hota tha. Wahi baaki chefs ko nirdesh deta tha aur hotel acchi tarah se chal sake, isme uska bohut bada yogdaan hota tha.
Magar, Hotel Prestige ke Head Chef, Narang aaj kisi aur mood me hi tha. Kareeb 40-45 ki umr ka ye aadmi apne saath saath baakiyo ko bhi apne shadiyantra me shaamil kiye baitha tha.
Narang : Mein kahe deta hu! Hamari maange poori karo warna hum sab abhi ke abhi apni naukri chhodh denge.
Bhumika bechain ho uthi. Iske pehle bhi woh do baar uss Narang ki payment badha chuki thi. Iss se zyada woh afford nahi kar sakti thi. Balki, shayad hi koi itni payment deta hoga.
Bhumika : Aapki payment mein pehle hi do baar badha chuki hu. Ye theek nahi hai. Kahi aur jaa ke dekhiye. Koi bhi aapko-
Narang : Hmph! Toh theek hai. Chale jaata hu. Yaha se acchi pagaar milne ka offer wese hi aa chuka hai mujhe.
Bhumika : Huh!??
Narang : Chalo Bhai log!!
Narang ke saath kaafi log the. Magar saare nahi. Kuch the jo abhi bhi apni pagaar se khush the aur hotel ke hit ke liye hi kaam karna chaahte the. Hotel se unka lagaav tha. Par ye log chand hi the.
Bhumika ne jab dekha ki woh log jaa sakte hai toh woh darr gayi. Woh inhe jaane nahi de sakti thi. Agar aisa hua, toh hotel ke profit ke upar bohut bada antar aa sakta tha. Nuksaan hi nuksaan ho sakta tha.
Naye chefs ko dhundhna, unhe laana, fir wapas se kaam samjhana, ye sab na jaane kitna samay le sakta tha. Uske baad taste ka change hona. Harr chef apne dhang se khaana banata hai. Jo yaha pehle se bana rahe hai, unke jaisa agla aadmi nahi bana sakta.
Prestige ki yahi toh pehchaan thi. Uska taste!! Agar chefs badal jayenge, toh woh pehle jaisa taste kaise maintain kar payenge? Signature dishes ka kya hoga jo sirf head chef hi banaaya karta hai?
Inn vichaaro ne Bhumika ko ek chakravyuh me fasa diya. Agar Shweta yaha hoti toh woh ab tak chidh ke Narang ko bhaga chuki hoti. Usme itna tolerance nahi. Magar, Bhumika ke andar tolerance level kahi zyada tha.
Bhumika (frowns) : Ye aap theek nahi kar rahe. Baahar log apne khaane ka wait kar rahe hai. Ye saari baatein aap baad me bhi toh kar sakte the na? Abhi karne ki kya zaroorat thi?
Narang : Iska faisla abhi hi hoga. Baad me taalne wala kaam mera nahi. Kyu bhai log?
"Haan haan!! Faisla abhi hoga."
Bhumika : A-Aap sab-!!! Kya zara bhi pyaar nahi aapko iss hotel se? Itne saalo tak aap sab ne kaam kiya hai. Kya kabhi aapko kisi cheez ki taqleef hone di hai mene ya Mom ne?
Uski iss baat par kuch chefs apna sarr jhuka ke khade ho gaye. Baat satya thi. Aaj tak unhe kabhi bhi kisi bhi cheez ki taqleef nahi hui thi. Pagaar hamesha samay par mil jaaya karti thi. Tyohaaro me unhe bonus bhi milta tha. Kahi se bhi koi taqleef nahi thi.
Fir woh sab kyu apni itni shaleen maalkin ke khilaaf khade ho uthe? Jawaab tha ~ Narang!
Jisne bhadka ke unhe apne side kar liya tha. Thode se behkaave me aane ke baad woh ye tak bhul gaye ki isi hotel se unka ghar chalta tha. Aaj woh usi ko laat maar rahe the. Kahi na kahi unn sab ke andar ek glaani ki bhaavna zaroor jaagi. Magar ab woh itna aage badh chuke the. Ab peeche nahi hatt sakte the.
Narang : Hume bas saaf saaf jawab de do!
Bhumika duwidha me fas gayi. Kya kare woh?
Saath khadi Arohi bhi clueless thi. Kya karti woh bechari.
Arohi : Kaash Veer yaha hota-!!!
Uske muh se ye nikla hi tha ki-
"What's happening here???"
Ek jaani pehchaani awaaz uske kaano me padi.
'Huh???'
Bhumika aur Arohi dono ne mud ke dekha toh paaya ki Veer unke saamne khada hua tha. Woh abhi abhi kitchen me aaya tha. Baahar ke staff ne use andar jaane ke liye kaha tha.
Arohi : Veeeeeer!!!
Woh aage badh unke nazdeek aaya aur Bhumika ne use sab kuch samjha diya. Pehle toh Veer hassa aur uske baad usne Narang ko dekha,
Veer : Toh tumhe jawaab chahiye? Hmm?
Narang ne upar se neeche tak Veer ko dekha. Iss ladke ko usne pehle kabhi nahi dekha tha. Jis tarah se Bhumika aur Arohi uske saath pesh aa rahi thi, Narang ne ek anumaan laga liya ki ye ladka unka koi rishtedar hi tha. Apna guroor wapas se chehre par jhalkaate hue woh bola,
Narang : Hmph! Tum jawaab doge? Kherr! Jo bhi de, mujhe farq nahi padta. Bas, haan ya naa me bata do. Payment hamari badha rahe ho ya nahi?
Veer (smiles) : Theek hai! Toh mein deta hu tumhe jawaab!
Narang : Hmm!
Veer : GET LOST!
Narang : Huh???
Bhumika : Ahhh??? V-Veeer???
Narang ko jaise apne kaano par yakeen nahi hua. Bhumika ka bhi yahi haal tha. Woh iss waqt kaise bhi kar ke unhe rokna chaahti thi. Baahar sabhi khaane ka wait kar rahe the. Aise me ye kaisa nirnay tha ki Narang ko bhaga diya jaaye?
Narang : K-Kya kaha tumne?
Veer : Mene kaha, dafa ho jao!
Narang : Haah! Haha! Hahahahahaha!
Bhumika : Veer! Tum-!?
Narang : Mujhe toh laga tha thodi bohut aqal se kaam loge. Par- Hahahahaha!!!
Veer (smiles) : Aqal se hi kaam liya hai. Aur ye aqal pehle hi dikha deni chaahiye thi.
Narang : *frowns*
Veer : How much you pay him monthly?
Bhumika : Th-That's-!!! 60,000!!!
Veer (baffled) : 60 hazaar rupaye?? Aur pehle kitna pay karti thi?
Bhumika : 45,000!
Veer : 15,000 rupaye ka izaafa!! Mujhe nahi lagta ki aas paas ke kisi bhi hotel me kisi Head Chef ki itni payment hogi.
Narang : Ladke!! Tujhe pata hi kya hai? Hmph!!! Baahar jaake dekh zara. Casa Belle waale toh mujhe khushi khushi le lenge.
Bhumika : N-Nahi!!!
Bhumika ka darr jayaz tha.
Casa Belle!!!
Haal hi me khuli ek nayi hotel jo unke hotel ke paas hi thi. Ek 5 star hotel. Bhumika ka sapna tha ki woh apni iss hotel ko 5 star hotel me tabdeel kare. Duniya ki ekdum premium hotels me uski hotel ka naam jaana jaaye. Aur isi sapne ke liye woh jee tod mehnat kiya karti thi.
Lekin, Casa Belle ke aane ke baad se hi hotel ke liye mushqile badh rahi thi. Zyada crowd abhi bhi Prestige ke paas hi tha. Magar, kya hoga agar Narang jaise chefs uske paas se chale jaaye aur jaa ke Casa Belle me kaam karne lage?
Hotel toh band hone ki kagaar pe aa jayega.
Veer bas muskuraya. Aur woh khushi khushi bola,
Veer : Darwaze khule hai! Jaa sakte ho!
Narang : T-Tum-!!!
Bhumika : Veer! Nahi! Hum aisa nahi kar sakte. Jald se jald inn sab ko rokna hoga. Baahar shor badhta jaa raha hai. Th-Theek hai mein payment badhaane ke liye-
Veer : Hargiz nahi! Ek rupaya bhi badhaya nahi jayega. Payment aapke kaam ke hisaab se ekdum sahi hai. Balki, zyada hi hai. 50,000 is a very good amount for a head chef. Not to mention ki tum kisi 5 star hotel ke chef nahi ho. Aur na hi abhi hamari hotel ek fully 5 star hotel me tabdeel hui hai.
Narang : Toh theek hai-!!! Bhaad me jao tum! Madam ji! Ab sambhal lena aap. Baad me mere paas gidgidate hue mat aana.
Bhumika : V-Veeeeer!!! Ye kya kiya tumne? P-Please! Hum unhe jaane nahi de sakte.
Narang : Hmph! Chalo Bhai log!
Usne kaha, magar pehle ke muqaable ab sirf aadhe hi log Narang ke saath aaye. Baaki aadhe peeche hoke khade ho gaye. Veer ki baato ne jaise unhe abhaas dilaya tha ki unhe jo mil raha tha woh pehle se kahi zyada tha.
Narang : Hmm? Tum sab!!! Yahi rehne ka irada hai kya? Bhulo nahi ki aise mauke baar baar nahi aate. Pagaar badhaane ka iss se accha mauka nahi milega. Ye ghatiya hotel chhodho aur chalo mere saath. Mein tum sab ko 20% zyada pagaar dilwaunga pehle ke muqaable.
Chef 1 : 20% zyada?
Narang : Haan! Chalo ab! Narang ki zubaan hai.
Chef 1 : L-Lekin-!! Nahi! Nahi hum yahi theek hai.
Narang : Tum!!! Mene kaha chalo mere saath.
Uska haath jabran thaam Narang ne jab use ghaseetna chaaha toh ek mazboot haath ne uski kalaayi ko jakad liya.
Veer : Woh kahi nahi jayega!
Narang : Ladke-!!! Haath chhodh!! Woh toh madam ke yaha itne saal kaam kiya hai isliye haath nahi uthaya tujh par. Tu hota kaun hai mujhe rokne waala? Madam ke naate mein kuch kar nahi raha warna-
Veer : Warna!? Shukr manao ki unhi madam ke chalte tum ab tak sahi salamat ho. Itne saal kaam kiya hai isliye zyada kuch kiya nahi mene warna-
Narang : Hoshiyar samajhta hai apne aap ko? Saale teri toh-
*Swish*
Wahi par rakha ek bada sa chamcha utha ke Narang ne Veer ke sarr pe chalaya par woh late tha. Ya yu kahe ki Veer uss se hazaro guna tezz tha.
Agle hi shan Narang ke haath se woh chamcha gaayab hua,
LIMBO!!!
*Crack*
*Swoosh*
Narang ko uske peeche se shirt pakad ke Veer ne uska sarr turant hi-
*Plop*
Paani se bhare ganj me de maara.
*Blurgh!!* *Gulp* *glrggh*
Bhumika : Nooooo!!! You both-!!!! Stop it Please!!!
Paani se uske chehre ko nikaal Veer use darwaze ki orr laaya aur-
*BAMMMMMM*
Darwaza zorr se khula aur ek udta hua insaan kuch feet dur jaa ke gira.
Baahar baithi tamaam janta ekdum se shaant ho gayi. Jo shikaayte woh pehle kar rahe the. Maar dhaad dekh sabke sab ekdum se dubak ke baith gaye.
Narang : L-Ladkeeee-!!! Madar-
*Bammmmmmm*
"Ugggghhh!!!"
Veer ne use pakda aur use aise le gaya jaise maano woh kooda fekne jaa raha tha.
Veer : Security!!!
Guard 1 : H-Haan!
Veer : Aaj se ye chef nahi hai. Hamari hotel me kaam toh kya, shaqal bhi nahi dikhni chahiye iski.
[What a strong performance. That's what I like about you~ A strong boy... needs a strong 'Mommy'! Doesn't he?]
'Shut up!'
[Fufufu~ Sooner or later! You'll be mine! ♡]
Narang ke saath jitne bhi the, woh Veer ko ladta dekh ke hi sehem gaye.
Veer : Aur tum sab!? Jaana nahi hai?
"N-Nahi Sir! H-Hum kaam karne taiyaar hai. Hum-"
Veer : Out!!!
"???"
Veer : Iss se pehle ki yahi haal tum sab ka hoye. Mere bina kahe hi nikal jao!
Na chaahte hue bhi unn sabhi ko waha se nikalna pada. Unhone apne hi perr par kulhadi maar li thi. Acchi bhali naukri haath se gawa di.
Ab woh sab Narang ke hi bharose the. Idhar Bhumika ki jaan jaise halak me aa gayi. Veer ne sabke saamne hi Head Chef ko nikaal diya? Ab kya hoga?
Bhumika : Khatam! Sab khatam! Veer! Kyu kiya aisa??? Ab k-kaise-!?
Arohi : Trust him!
Bhumika : Huh?
Arohi : He must have thought of something.
Bhumika : Wh-What?
Narang aur uski toli ko bhagaane ke baad Veer apne customers ke saamne aaya aur usne apni baat rakhi,
Veer : Jo kuch bhi hua. Uss sab ke liye mein aapse maafi maangta hu. Darasal, hamare Head Chef ki zyaadti badh gayi thi. Aur unhe ayeena dikhana zaroori tha. Mujhe aap sab 10 minute dijiye. 10 minute ke andar andar orders lagne shuru ho jayenge. Mein waada karta hu, aisa swaad aapne kahi nahi chakha hoga.
Uske bolte hi aapsi me logo ki khusur pusur chaalu ho gayi.
"Theek hai lao Bhai! Ab itna late toh ho hi gaya hai."
"H-Haan! 10 minute dekh sakte hai."
Manzoori milne ke baad Veer muskuraate hue kitchen me gaya. Peeche peeche Bhumika aur Arohi bhi thi. Nandini wahi baahar reh ke logo ko sambhaale rahi.
Aur idhar andar aate hi,
*Ding*
[Intimidating Presence has been equipped.]
Veer : Tum sab!!! Apna apna naam batao! Jaldi!
Bache hue chefs se jaise hi Veer ne buland awaaz me pucha sab uske aage sehem gaye. Andar se hi ek respect waali bhaavna na jaane kyu jaagrit hone lagi.
Apna apna naam unn sabhi ne bataya. Bhumika ko chinta khaaye jaa rahi thi.
Bhumika : Veer ab kya hoga? Hum kaise manage karenge? Ye nahi hona chahiye tha.
Veer : Bhumika dii!
Bhumika : ???
Veer (smiles) : Woh Narang pehle se hi naukri chhodhne ke chakkar me tha.
Bhumika : Wh-What??
Veer : Kya aapne gaur nahi kiya? Kyu woh baar baar Casa Belle hotel ka zikr kar raha tha?
Bhumika : Woh-
Veer (smiles) : Casa Belle waale logo ne pehle se hi use ghoos de di hai shayad. Narang toh bas bahana dhoondh raha tha yaha se nikalne ka.
Bhumika : Ahh!!?
Veer : Isliye woh aisi betuki farmayish rakh raha tha. Use laga tha ki aap use naukri se nikaal dogi. Aur uska kaam bann jayega.
Bhumika : Y-Ye!?
Veer (smiles) : But you were persistent. Aap use jaane nahi de rahi thi. Uske liye aur mushqil ho raha tha. And that's why he opted for violence.
Bhumika : Ahhhnn! Y-Ye baat thi!?
Veer : I fulfilled his wish. Ab shayad hi woh kabhi accha khaana bana paaye. *smiles*
Bhumika : Hmm?
Veer (smiles) : Looks like we've got a new competition in the market. Anyways! Aap sab kuch mujh par chhodh dijiye.
Bhumika : B-But how-!?
Veer (screams) : CHEFS!!!!
"Y-Yesss sirrr!!!"
Veer ne apni shirt utaar apni kamar par baandhi. Haath dhoye aur woh taiyaar tha.
Veer : Get ready!!! Bhumika dii! Arohi dii! Order numbers dijiye. Pehle woh bataiye jaha orders adhura pohucha hai. Uske baad woh orders jaha bohut derr se khaana nahi pohucha. And lastly newest ones.
Bhumika : G-Got it!!
Arohi : Veer! Table number 7!!! Umm! 1 Dal fry, 1 Veg pulav, and 1 butter paneer masala!!
Veer : Got it!!!
Uske haath itni raftaar se chal rahe the ki baaki chefs apni aankhein faade dekhte reh gaye. Kahi koi choonk nahi, sab kuch perfection se ho raha tha.
Bhumika ne jab uski speed dekhi toh uska muh khula ka khula reh gaya. Speed hona koi bohut badi baat nahi thi.
Par full accuracy ke saath speed hona, ye bilkul naamumkin jaisa tha. Kahi koi cheez gir nahi rahi thi. Tel ki maatra, pan ko saute karne ka dhang, ingredients ki maatra sab kuch jaise ekdum perfectly daala jaa raha tha.
Veer : Vijayyy!!!
Vijay : Y-Yes Chef!?
Veer : Tomato soup!!! Table number 9 ke liye. Abhi!!!
Vijay : Y-Yes Chef!!!
Veer : Toasted bread piece daalna mat bhulna!!
Vijay : Y-Yes!!
Veer : Coriander ki garnishing!!!
Vijay (shouts) : Yessssss Chef!!!
Veer : Rohitttt!!!!
Rohit : H-Haan??
Veer : Same table!!! Dry Manchurian!!
Rohit : Y-Yess Chef!!!
*Clang* *Schling*
Bartano ki khat-pat awaazo ke saath aur chaaku chhuriya ki dhaar ke sang Veer ne kitchen me ek alag hi aura bhar diya.
Baaki chefs Veer ki skills dekh, uss se order lete hue itne motivate ho gaye ki woh harsho-ullas ke saath khaana banaane me jutt gaye. Asli swaad tabhi aata hai jab ek chef dil se khushi khushi uss khaane ko banaaye. Aaj wahi ho raha tha.
Bhumika ne aisa drishya pehle kabhi nahi dekha tha. Veer ko kaam karta dekh, uski dhadkane tezz ho uthi. Sach kehte hai. Ek mard sabse zyada attractive tab hi lagta hai jab woh apne kaam me leen ho.
Woh yaha uss Narang ki payment badhaane ke chakkar me thi. Aur yaha Veer ne ek jhalak me uske shadiyantra ko pakad liya tha.
Bhumika : I have so much yet to learn...! M-Mein use samajh nahi saki theek se.
Arohi (smiles) : That's okay! As long as you keep faith in him!
Bhumika (smiles) : I see now! Thank you! Arohi!
Arohi (smiles) : Mmm~
Baahar jaise jaise dishes aati gayi, logo ke mann se woh doubt khatam ho gaya. Jaise jaise unhone khaane ka swaad chakha sab ke sab chakit reh gaye. Baat sahi thi. Aaj tak unn sabhi ne iss tarah ka swaad nahi chakha tha. Dishes toh same hi thi. Lekin, ek naya zaayka tha usme. Kuch extra tha. Jo woh bata nahi paa rahe the.
Akhir kaar ye silsila khatam hua. Raat ke 10:30 baj rahe the. Rush samaapt ho chuka tha. Veer ne aaj se pehle kabhi itna khaana nahi banaaya tha.
Garmi ke chalte woh poora paseene se lath-path tha. Hotel ke baahar closed ka sign lag chuka tha.
Dining area me hi woh ek kursi par AC ke neeche baith gaya.
Uske bagal se Arohi thi toh wahi dusri orr Bhumika.
Arohi ne ek towel lete hue uska paseena pochha.
Veer (smiles) : Thank you!
Arohi : Thank you!
Veer : Hmm?
Arohi : For working this hard!
Bhumika ne achanak se uski baah ko apne haatho ke ird gird liya.
Veer : ???
Bhumika : Veer! Aaj sab ne khaane ki itni zyaada tareef ki hai ki mein tumhe bata nahi sakti. Aisa pehle kabhi nahi hua.
Veer : Haha!
Bhumika : No doubt woh Narang accha khana banaata tha. Lekin, kabhi bhi public aise react nahi karti thi. Jo kuch bhi tamasha aaj hua, uss se public darr bhi gayi thi. Isliye mene unhe Sunday ka special offer ka coupon bhi diya hai. Umeed hai ye swaad chakhne ke baad woh zaroor ayenge.
Veer : Of course!
Bhumika (frowns) : L-Lekin-! Ye toh sirf aaj ke liye tha. Aaj tumne madad kar di. Aage kya hoga?
Veer : Don't worry! Aapke liye mene naya head chef bhi dhoondh liya hai.
Bhumika : Kya??? Kaun hai woh?
Veer (smiles) : You'll know soon!
Woh aankhein band thodi derr khud ko durust karne laga jab,
*Puch*
'Huh?'
Do narm honth uske gaal par lag gaye. Bhumika ne sharmaate hue uske gaal ko chooma.
Bhumika (blushes) : Th-Thank you so much!!!
Veer : Ahem! D-Don't mention it!
***
Yaha toh sab nipat chuka tha. Magar inn beete ghante Sonali kaha thi?
Food truck se nikalne ke baad woh Kaushik ke sang pradarshani dekhne gayi thi. Khayaal toh use Veer ka hi aa raha tha.
Kintu, Kaushik ki lagataar baato ko sunn aur pradarshani me mauj masti kar uska dhyaan Veer par se thoda hatt gaya.
Derr raat ho rahi thi. Usne aaj khoob enjoy kiya tha. Ab lautne ka samay tha.
Kaushik ka dost bhi jaa chuka tha. Ab woh khud hi gaadi chala raha tha.
Kaushik : Kya iss nacheez ke saath sundari jii ko thoda bohut bhi accha laga?
Sonali : Hahaha! Tumhari baatein betuki hai. Aur mujh par line maarna band kar do.
Kaushik : Uui maa! Pakda gaya kya mein?
Sonali : Kab ke!!! Chalo! Aur mujhe jaldi se wapas se truck par chhodh do. Prachi ab aur late nahi ruk payegi.
Kaushik : Bilkul! Bilkul!
Sonali ko raaste pata nahi the. Magar kuch na kuch mod yaad zaroor the.
Jab Kaushik ne truck dusri disha me moda toh uski bauhe kass uthi.
Sonali : Arre? Y-Ye raasta nahi hai. Woh waala mod tha.
Kaushik : Jaane dijiye na! Aaj yaha se chalte hai. Kaafi saari khubsoorat jagaahe hai yaha pe. Aapko dikhata hu.
Sonali : N-Nahi! Raat bohut ho gayi hai. Aur mujhe ab jaana hai.
Kaushik : Maaniye toh baat-!!
Sonali : Mene kaha na-!!! Ye-! Ye kya kar rahe ho tum??
Kaushik : Nahi!! A-Aaj aapko meri baat maanami padegi.
Woh uski orr mudte hue bola. Uski muskaan me iss baar hawas ke iraade jhalak rahe the.
Sonali : !!???

Very nice updateMega Update
Update - 154 ~ The Prestige's Ordeal
Ab tak...
Kintu, samasya kabhi na aaye aisa kaise ho sakta tha. Jaha abhi sab kuch accha chal raha tha ki itne me hi Bhumika ko ek call aaya. Usne call receive kar jab baat suni toh uski aankhein hairat me fel gayi.
Phone cut karte hi woh Veer ko dekhi,
Bhumika : Veer!! Ek problem ho gayi hai.
Magar woh akeli nahi thi. Truck se Prachi daudte hue aayi aur jaldbazi me boli,
Prachi : Ek nahi-! Do problem hai!!
Veer : Huh!!???
Ab aage...
Kehte hai ki bhagwan jab deta hai toh chhappar faad ke deta hai. Magar, kayi baar aisa bhi hota hai ki ek musibat ki jagah kaho anek musibatein saath me hi aa jaaye.
Veer iss samay isi duwidha me tha. Ek taraf woh Bhumika ko dekh raha tha jo chinta me uske saamne khadi thi toh wahi dusri taraf Prachi ko jo food truck se nikal ke jaldbaazi me aayi thi.
Samasyao ne darwaza khat-khata diya tha. Akhir, chal kya raha tha yaha? Veer ne pehle Bhumika se hi puchna sahi samjha.
Veer : Pehle aap bataiye! Kya hua hai?
Bhumika (frowns) : Veer! Ek bohut badi problem ho gayi hai.
Veer : Hotel me kuch-!?
Bhumika (nods) : Haan!
Veer : Kya dikkat hai?
Bhumika : Woh- Woh Head Chef-!!!
Veer : Head Chef?
Bhumika : Hmm! He's very troublesome to deal with. Pehle bhi woh kayi baar aisa kar chuka hai.
Veer : Kya kiya hai usne?
Bhumika : Baaki chefs ko bhadkana. Pay increase karne ke liye. Mein pehle hi 2 baar payment badha chuki hu. Magar-!! Oh no! Firse call aa raha hai. Veer! Mujhe jaana hoga!
Veer (nods) : Ek kaam kariye. Aap pohuchiye, mein aapke peeche peeche aata hu.
Bhumika : Alright!
Bhumika jaldbaazi me daudte hue waha se apni car ki orr nikli. Par, aisi sthiti me uska akela jaana theek nahi tha. Isliye,
Veer : Arohi dii?
Arohi (nods) : Mmm~ I got it!
Woh toh jaise bina kuch kahe hi samajh gayi. Bina Veer ko jawaab diye woh waha se tezz qadmo ke saath Bhumika ke peeche peeche chal di. Aur idhar Veer ke hontho par ek halki si muskaan saj gayi. Woh fir Prachi ki orr muda,
Veer : Ab tum batao! Kya hua hai?
Prachi : W-Woh-!
Veer : Ghabrane ki zaroorat nahi. Khul ke batao!
Prachi : Okay! Actually, baat ye hai ki- Ab aap toh jaante ho ki aapke kitne food trucks hai. Magar, aap harr ek ko daily dekhne nahi aa sakte. Right?
Veer : Mmm-hmm!
Prachi : Toh aaye din workers badalte rehte hai. Koi jaata hai toh koi naya aa jaata hai.
Veer : So?
Prachi : So, hua ye hai ki- Sir! Kaushik naam ka ek ladka hai.
Veer : Kaushik?
Prachi (nods) : Hmm! Woh morning waala breakfast ka jo ek aur food truck hai usme rehta hai. Uske saath ek aur ladka hai. Uske saath wala ladka accha hai lekin ye Kaushik-
Veer : Kuch kiya hai kya?
Prachi : N-Nahi!
Veer : Toh?
Prachi : Ab ho sakta hai mein zyada soch rahi hu. P-Par Sonali di jo hai-
Veer : Sonali ka kya?
Prachi : Sir, woh Kaushik aaj kal har roz shaam ko yaha aata hai aur fir Sonali di se meethi meethi baatein karta hai.
Veer : Hmm?
Prachi : Aur Sonali di use bas daant deti hai magar- Mujhe lagta hai jaise Kaushik ki baatein unhe pasand bhi aati hai.
Veer : I see! So, what's the problem?
Prachi : Problem ye hai ki- Mujhe lagta hai ki woh Kaushik kuch theek nahi hai.
Veer : Aisa kyu bhala? Agar woh theek nahi tha toh use hire kisne kiya?
Prachi : Sonali di ne hi. Uske kaam me koi dikkat nahi hai Sir.
Veer : Fir kya dikkat hai? Behaviour?
Prachi : Haan! Ho sakta hai mein kuch zyada overthink kar rahi hu. Mujhe jo laga woh mene aapko bata diya. Mujhe woh ladka theek nahi lagta.
Veer : Theek nahi lagta as in? Kya kuch gadbad kar raha hai? Ya kar sakta hai?
Prachi : Actually-
Veer : Prachi! Tumhe hich-kichane ki zaroorat nahi. Owner mein hu. Tum kaho! Tumhara koi kuch nahi ukhaad sakta. Just say!
Prachi : O-Okay! Shayad Kaushik-
Veer : Hmm?
Prachi : Sonali di ko paana chaahta hai.
Veer : Kya Sonali ko Kaushik pasand hai?
Prachi : Shayad haan! Like woh daant lagati hai use. Seedhe muh baat nahi karti par mene unko uski baato par muskuraate dekha hai.
Prachi ki baat par Veer ko thodi hairani hui. Sonali kisi ladke ki baato par muskura rahi thi?
Use Suman ko kahi gayi apni hi baat yaad aa gayi~
'Agar woh kisi aur ko chaahegi, toh mein use jaane dunga!'
Veer ko yaad hai ki usne isi kaaran kabhi Sonali ko Suman aur Aabha ki tarah apna slave nahi maana tha. Kyuki, ho sakta tha ki Sonali use apne maalik ke roop me sweekaar na kare. Ho sakta tha ki use koi aur ladka pasand aa jaaye.
Shayad aaj woh din aa chuka tha. Veer ne ek gehri saans li.
Veer : Agar use pasand hai. Toh kya dikkat hai?
Veer ko kehte hue pata nahi kyu accha nahi lag raha tha lekin fir bhi usne keh diya. Prachi ne jab ye suna toh woh hairat me use ghoor ke dekhi.
Prachi : A-Aap ko parvaah nahi?
Veer : Hmm? Isme parvaah kaisi? Sonali ko agar koi pasand hai toh acchi baat hai na woh toh-!?
Prachi : Eh? I-I thought-!!
Bechari Prachi duwidha me fas ke reh gayi. Use laga tha ki Veer aur Sonali ke beech kuch chal raha tha isliye woh bhaagi bhaagi daud ke ye baat use bataane aayi thi. Par yaha toh aisa prateet ho raha tha jaise Veer aur Sonali ke beech kuch tha hi nahi.
Woh toh ye soch ke aayi thi ki woh unn dono ke pyaar ko bacha legi. Par-
Veer : Sonali samajhdar hai. In case kuch gadbad tumhe lagti hai toh mujhe call kar dena.
Prachi : Mene aapko abhi toh bataya. Woh ladka theek nahi hai.
Veer : Hmm! Mene sunn liya hai Prachi. Par tumhare paas abhi kuch proof bhi nahi hai. Isliye keh raha hu, kuch gadbad lage toh mujhe call kar dena. You have my number, right?
Prachi : H-Haan!
Veer : I'll leave then!
Prachi : B-But-!!
Veer uski baat sune bagerr hi food truck ki orr chal diya. Andar Sonali dishes banaane me lagi hui thi.
Toh wahi road ke uss paar ek aur food truck khada hua tha. Jisme Kaushik aur ek aur worker maujood the.
Kaushik Sonali ko dekh apne lund ko masalne me laga hua tha. Aur uska saath driving seat par baitha tha.
Worker : Dekh! Mein abhi bhi keh raha hu. Woh teri pohuch ke baahar ki ladki hai. Upar se owner ki koi rishtedar lagti hai mujhe toh. Tujhse nahi patne waali.
Kaushik : Abe, tu jaanta hi kya hai ladkiyo ke baare me. Dekhta jaa bas tu. Gaav ki chhori hai. Chaahta toh mein uss Prachi ko set kar sakta tha. Magar, woh yahi Mumbai ki hai. Uss saali ko mere upar kuch shaq sa hai.
Worker : Woh ladki samajhdar hai!
Kaushik : Lekin, ye Sonali gaav se hai. Ise sheher ka utna gyaan nahi. Ise set karna asaan hai. Saali ko chodne me kya maza aayega. Lita lita ke chodunga.
Worker : Mein abhi bhi keh raha hu. Uss se dur hi reh.
Kaushik : Kya jhandu aadmi hai bey tu? Kabhi choot maari hai?
Worker : Nahi!
Kaushik : Bas yahi toh dikkat hai tumhari. Abe jaise ek nashedi insaan bina nashe ke reh nahi sakta na? Wese hi ye lund hai. Ek baar ye choot ka swaad chakh le na toh bina choot maare nahi rehta.
Worker : Choot ke chakkar me lene ke dene bhi pad jaate hai. Aur isliye, mein apne kaam se hi matlab rakhta hu.
Kaushik : Haan toh tu wahi kar. Mere kaam me taang mat ada. Mere lund ko choot ki zaroorat hai. Agar ye set ho gayi, toh fir kehne hi kya. Naukri bhi karte raho, free ki choot bhi maarte jao. Hahahaha! Pagaar ki pagaar. Upar se food truck ke maalik ki sambandhi hai woh. Sab set hai.
Worker (sighs) : Tu jaane aur tera kaam jaane.
Kaushik apne saathi ki baato ko ek kaan se sunn dusre kaan se nikal diya. Tabhi, uski nazar Veer par padi jo Sonali ke food truck me jaa raha tha.
Kaushik : Iski maa ka- Jaldi, gaadi waha laga.
Worker : Kyu? Kya hua?
Kaushik : Abe yahi owner hai na?
Worker (squints) : H-Haan shayad-! Haan yahi hai. Veer Sir!
Kaushik : Haan toh gaadi laga waha. Turant!
Worker : Haan haan!
Kaushik ke saathi ne food truck chaalu kar aage badhaya aur U-turn lete hue woh road ke iss side par aa gaya jaha Sonali ka food truck maujood tha.
Jab tak ye log yaha aa rahe the tab tak Veer aur Sonali ke beech alag vartalaap chal raha tha.
Veer : Sab theek toh chal raha hai na?
Sonali : Hmm? Aaj tumhe itna parvaah kaise hone lagi? Aise toh kabhi jhaakne nahi aate.
Veer : Kya mein puch nahi sakta?
Sonali : Puch sakte ho! Bilkul puch sakte ho. Sab kuch tumhara hi toh hai. Jo chaahe karo! Bhala mein kaun hoti hu-?
Veer (sighs) : Mera matlab ye hai ki kahi koi gadbad toh nahi hai. Koi dikkat toh nahi hai na? Sab theek hai?
Sonali ne do pal ke liye use dekha fir muh fula ke mudte hue boli,
Sonali : Hmm! Sab theek hai!
Veer (nods) : Alright! Agar koi- Agar koi problem ho toh mujhse share kar sakti ho. Okay?
Sonali (confused) : Tumhari tabiyat toh theek hai na?
Veer : I-!! Leave it! Apna dhyaan rakhna. Aur, apne aas paas ke logo ka bhi.
Sonali : Huhh!? Kya matlab? Aaj subah subah kahi sarr bhidwa ke aaye ho kya? Kaisi behki behki baatein kar rahe ho?
Veer kuch keh paata ki itne me Kaushik apne saathi ke sang truck leke haazir tha.
Window se nikal ke hi woh haath hilaate hue chillaaya,
Kaushik : Arre! Haha! Sir! Aaj mile ho aap! Warna kabhi darshan hi nahi hue aap ke toh batao.
Uske aate hi,
'Check!'
Veer ne usko poori tarah se scan kar liya. Kahi koi gadbad nazar nahi aayi. Kaushik ek aam ladka hi tha. Thoda awara-gardi karne waala tha magar kaam uska theek tha. Koi chor, gunda, mawali nahi tha woh. Jab Veer ne ye dekha ki kahi kuch gadbad nahi hai. Toh usne ek raahat ki saans li.
Kya iska matlab Prachi bewajah hi chintit ho rahi thi?
Prachi, jo theek unke saath khadi hui thi woh Kaushik ko aata dekh ke hi tension me aa gayi.
Veer ne idhar Kaushik ke aate hi uski baat ka jawaab diya,
Veer : Ohh! Naye ho?
Kaushik : Ji Sir!
Veer : Kya naam?
Kaushik : Ji Kaushik!
Veer : Alright! Acche se kaam karna.
Kaushik : Aap fiqr mat karo Sir! Mein apna kaam poori lagan se karta hu. Lekin, aaj aap se ek permission lena chaahta hu. Umeed hai aap mana nahi karoge.
Veer : Kaisi permission?
Kaushik : Woh kya hai na, kuch dino pehle pradarshani lagi hai yahi paas me. Mujhe jaana tha zara.
Veer (nods) : Theek hai! Tum jaldi jaa sakte ho.
Kaushik : Na na na na! S-Sirf mein nahi!
Veer : Toh?
Kaushik : Ahem! Woh kya hai na! Ab akela mein kya karunga Sir waha. Saath me koi hona chahiye na? Sundar si pradarshani ko dekhne ke liye ek sundari bhi toh honi chahiye na saath me? Hai na?
Veer : Bilkul!
Veer ne keh toh diya magar uske chehre par koi bhaav nahi the. Woh Kaushik ko aise dekh raha tha jaise kisi namoone ko dekh raha ho.
[Oh my~ Look at this worthless ant! A toad wishing to eat swan meat.]
Pari ke muh se bhi Kaushik ke liye beizzati hi nikli. Do kaudi ka ladka uske Master se hi unki hi bandi ko ghumaane ki permission maang raha tha. What a joke!
Magar-
Sonali ne jab Kaushik ki baatein suni, toh woh hass padi.
'Hmm?'
[Oh! Lagta hai~ Tumne apna swaad ise nahi chakhaya. What a mistake you have made my baby~ Isliye kehti hu. Forget all this. Come to me! Surrender to me! Call me 'Mommy' and I will make you the most powerful man in this world.]
'Please stop!!!'
Veer Pari se baat karne ke mood me nahi tha abhi. Sonali ne Kaushik ki baat sunn Veer ko dekha jaise maano woh dekhna chaah rahi ho ki Veer kaise react karta hai.
Veer (sighs) : No! This is work time. Tum khud jaana chaahte ho, koi manahi nahi hai. Jaa sakte ho. Par, staff me se kisi aur ko apne sang le jaana? Ye mein allow nahi kar sakta. Shaam hone waali hai aur ab rush hours rahenge. So, it's a strict 'NO' from my side.
Veer ka jawaab sunte hi jaise Kaushik ke muh pe 12 baj gaye. Kintu, usne aisa dikhaya nahi. Farzi muskan liye woh hassa aur punah bola,
Kaushik : Hahahaha! Arre kya Sir? Subah se din tak itna toh kaam kiya hai humne. Aur mein jaanta hu, sundari ka bhi ghoomne ka mann hoga. Ahem! Mera matlab hai Sonali ji ka! *winks*
Kaushik Sonali ko hi sundari keh ke itni derr se sambodhit kar raha tha. Jiske chalte, Sonali bas nazre ferr muskuraaye jaa rahi thi. Ye ladka roz uske paas kisi na kisi bahane se aaya karta aur roz apni fizool baato se use entertain karta.
Par kahi na kahi, ab uski fizool baatein hi Sonali ko jaise pasand aane lagi thi. Galti uski nahi thi. Balki, galti kisi ki bhi nahi thi.
Gaav ki ek aam ladki hone ke kaaran, Sonali ke standards ladko ko lekar behad hi low the. Shuru se hi woh apne baap Pushpendra aur uske bete Amit jaiso ko dekhti aayi thi. Jo ek number ke nalle, jaahil, gawaar aur nashedi aadmi the.
Aisi biraadri me rehne ke baad, Sonali ko ladke me bas itna hi chahiye rehta tha ki koi use sukhi rakh sake. Uski qadr kare. Bas!! Yahi the uske standards aur uski maangein.
Veer jaisa ladka uski expectations se bhi kahi zyada tha. Upar se uski khud ki maa, aur bhabhi apni taangein fela ke apne aap ko Veer ke prati samarpit kar chuki thi. Kahi na kahi, Sonali ke antarmann me ye dhaarna thi ki Veer bhala use kyu chaahega?
Uske paas toh ladkiyo ki line lagi hui thi. Magar maajra toh kuch aur hi tha, jo bechari woh nahi jaanti thi. Kisi aur ladke ka aana aur Sonali se iss tarah rubaru hona. Ye Veer ko na jaane kyu magar zara bhi pasand nahi aa raha tha.
Kaushik ke aamantran par usne turant hi naahi jataayi,
Veer : Nahi! Sonali ko kaam hai aur woh kahi nahi jayegi.
Kaushik : Arre ye kya baat hui Sir? Thoda hamare baare me bhi sochiye!
Veer : Nahi! Mene kaha na ki Sonali nahi-
Kintu,
Sonali : Kyu nahi? Kab se mein bhi subah se lage lage thak gayi thi. Pradarshani mujhe bhi dekhni thi. Na jaane kab se nahi dekhi. Isi bahaane thodi kamar bhi seedhi ho jayegi.
Veer : S-Sonali? T-Tum!?
Sonali : Haan! Kya mein nahi thakti? Mujhe bhi ghoomne ka mann karta hai. Aur kaun sa roz roz chhutti leti hu?
Veer : Tum aise kaise-!? Mujhe abhi zaroori kaam se jaana hai. Prachi akele nahi sambhal payegi. Tum iss waqt-
Sonali : Haan haan! Mujhe pata hai! Koi kaam nahi hai tumhara! Ab T.V me aa rahe ho iska matlab ye nahi ki harr waqt vyast ho tum. Ab aaye ho toh sambhalo apna yeh truck. Jaise uss din sambhala tha!?
Kaushik : Arre waah! Hahahaha! Kya baat hai! Dekha na Sir? Sab ki hi iccha hai. Mein toh kehta hu aaj aap chhutti hi dedo. Aa jao sundari- Mera matlab hai Sonali ji! Aaiye chalte hai! Thoda ghoom ke aate hai.
Bechari Sonali ye nahi jaanti thi ki abhi abhi Bhumika ki hotel me musibat aayi hai. Woh iss baat se anjaan thi. Woh nahi jaanti thi ki Veer ko abhi jald hi nikalna tha. Woh toh yahi samjhi ki Veer koi bahana bana raha tha.
Woh Kaushik se bhi parichit thi. Ye pehli baar nahi tha jab woh uske waale truck me baith rahi thi. Jab use hire kiya tha tab bhi woh Kaushik ke sang baith ke use venues ke baare me batayi thi. Kaha food truck lagana hai, kaise kaam karna hai. Toh isme ghabrane waali koi baat hi nahi thi ki woh akeli jaa rahi hai.
Saath hi woh Veer ko tang karne me kaha peeche hatati thi? Ye nirnay lete hi woh mann hi mann thahaake laga rahi thi. Soch rahi thi ki Veer chidhega aur tu-tu main-main karega.
Yahi soch woh truck se nikli aur Kaushik ke truck me chali gayi. Prachi muh khole bas nazara dekhti rahi. Jis train ko woh sahi se chalane ki koshish kar rahi thi woh toh patri se hi utar gayi. Naiyaa dubti hui nazar aa rahi thi use. Woh Veer ko bas hamdardi liye dekhi.
Aur mann me hi sochne lagi,
'Kya kar diya ye aapne Sonali di? Aapne Veer Sir jaise ladke ko haath se jaane diya? Agar mein aapki jagah hoti, toh uss Kaushik chhapri ko ghaas tak nahi daalti. Ye kya kar diya aapne?'
Sonali idhar muskaan liye seat par baithi aur truck chaalu hoke waha se chalne laga.
Magar jaise hi uski nazre Veer par tiki toh woh ghabra uthi. Veer ke chehre par taajub bhare bhaav the.
Woh Sonali ko aise dekh raha tha jaise use pehli baar dekh raha ho. Jaise usne koi aisa kaam kar diya ho jiski Veer ko umeed hi nahi thi. Achanak hi, Sonali ke dil ki dhadkane bechaini ke chalte tezz ho uthi. Par, truck chal chuka tha.
Use ye abhaas hua ki taang kheechne ke chakkar me kahi na kahi shayad usne Veer ko thes pohucha di hai. Ye sab kya ho raha tha?
Veer ke chehre par woh bhaav usne aaj se pehle kabhi nahi dekhe the. Kya uss se koi bhul ho gayi? Kya woh zyada bol gayi?
Sonali : N-Nahi-!!! R-Ruko-!
Par tab tak bohut derr ho chuki thi. Food truck kaafi aage badh chuka tha. Aur Sonali, sheeshe se Veer ke chehre ko dekh paa rahi thi. Na jaane kyu par uske dil me ek ajeeb sa dard utha.
Ab jaise sab kuch galat lag raha tha. Ye pradarshani, ye thakaan, Veer ki taang kheechna, jaise ab sab bhul chuki thi woh. Ab jaise inka koi artha hi nahi reh gaya tha. Kyuki jise sataane ke liye usne ye kiya tha wahi use hataash hue naraazgi me dekh raha tha. Veer ki wahi akhiri chhavi uske mann me bas gayi aur ek vichitr sa dard chhodh gayi.
Truck yaha se Veer ki aankhon se ojhal ho gaya. Sonali ke andar wapas jaane ki himmat bhi nahi aayi aur na hi woh kuch samajh paayi ki ye kya hua abhi abhi. Veer ko uss tarah dekh, uske dil me itna dard kyu uth raha tha?
'Iss se pehle-! Iss se pehle mene use kabhi aise nahi dekha! K-Kahi mein kuch zyada toh nahi bol gayi na? Agar woh bura maan gaya toh-!!!'
Lekin, ab sochne se kya fayda jab chidiya chug gayi khet. Woh ye nahi jaanti thi ki aane waale pal uske liye kaise hone waale the. Uske peeche khada Kaushik apni ghatiya nazro se uske badan ko taadne me laga hua tha. Muh se laar tapakne ki deri thi bas.
'Aaj toh teri seal tod hi dunga Sonali darling!!!'
***
"Ye kya kiya aapne?"
Truck ke jaate hi Veer ke peeche se Prachi ki naraazgi bhari awaaz aayi.
Veer : Kya?
Lag raha tha jaise woh Veer se bhi kahi zyada nirash thi.
Prachi : Aapne unhe jaane diya?
Veer (turns back) : Mene unhe jaane diya?
Veer ke sawaal par Prachi maun reh gayi. Usne jaane nahi diya tha. Balki, woh sabhi khud hi chale gaye the.
Veer chaahta toh ek baar me yaha maujood ek ek ki hekdi nikaal deta. Use bas 'Intimidating Presence' equip karne ki zaroorat thi. Uska aura mehsoos kar ke hi unn sab ki bolti band ho jaati. Lekin, usne aisa na kiya.
Prachi bas saantvna liye use dekhti rahi. Veer ke dil pe kya guzar rahi thi jaise woh jaanti thi.
Woh hairaan tha. Use thes pohuchi thi. Taajub iss baat ka nahi tha ki Sonali Kaushik ke saath gayi. Taajub iss baat ka tha ki Sonali uski baat ka yakeen na kar ke Kaushik ki baat ka yakeen kar chali gayi.
Kitne mahine ho chuke the use aur Sonali ko ek chhat ke neeche rehte hue? Usne apni taraf se kya kami chhodhi thi Sonali ke liye? Dard bas yahi tha ki Sonali ne ek baar bhi uski baat pe vishvaas na kiya. Aur bina poori baat sune nikal gayi. Yahi kaaran tha jo uske chehre par aashcharya tha.
Prachi : A-Ab?
Veer : You stay here! Mujhe kuch kaam hai! Mein aata hu baad me.
Prachi : O-Okay!
Woh aage kuch na keh paayi. Veer turant hi uske hawaale food truck chhodh seedha Hotel Prestige yaani ki Bhumika aur Shweta ki hotel ki orr nikal gaya.
***
Hotel Prestige
Evening ~ 6:08 PM
"Ye sab kya laga rakha hai, haan?"
"Aur nahi toh kya? Hum sab kya bewakoof hai?"
"Arre jab nahi ho paa raha hai toh lena hi nahi chahiye na order. Kaisa management hai aapka?"
"Paisa bhar dikhta hai inhe Bhai sahab. Baaki grahak ki qadr thodi hi hai."
"Sahi kaha!"
"Mein khud aadhe ghante se wait kar raha hu. Family saath me hai. Order le liya hai magar abhi tak table par paani ka jug tak nahi aaya hai. Ab batao!"
"Ye koi dhang thode hi hai. Bhai nahi ho raha aapse toh bata do. Band kar do. Hai na? Aadmi apni dusri jagah jaaye. Usko pehle hi bata do."
"Bilkul! Bilkul!"
"Haan! Samay ki barbadi hai aise me toh-"
"Mein bhi family saath aaya hu. Ab mera order pehle de diya. Aur abhi tak baccho ka order nahi aaya. Ye kya baat hui? Matlab mein unke saamne akele akele khau ab? Aap batao bhai. Family time ka matlab kya hota hai? Aadmi hotel kyu jaata hai?"
"Bilkul! Bilkul! Parivar ke saath khaane ke liye hi toh aata hai. Par ye baat ye kaha samajhte hai-"
"Sahi kaha ji. Darasal, ye aaj kal harr hotel ka bann gaya hai. Jab jab holiday waale din rehte hai ye uss din jaan boojh ke itna rush ghuswa lete hai laalach ke chakkar me. Baad me inse manage hota nahi hai."
Kayi saare log reception area me khade ek dusre se baatein karne me lage hue the aur counter ke uss side khadi Nandini jo ki hotel ki manager thi bas ghabra ke sab kuch dekh rahi thi.
Nandini : Sir! Please! Shaanti banaye rakhiye. Dekhiye! Thodi si problem ho gayi hai. Baat samajhne ki koshish kariye. Aisa kabhi hota nahi hai. Par aaj thodi si dikkat ho gayi hai.
"Arre kya dikkat ho gayi hai?"
"Haan haan! Jab nahi ho paa raha toh pehle batana chahiye."
"Shaam ke samay me ye haal hai, socho raat me kya hoga jab dinner ke liye aur families aayengi."
"Band kar do hotel."
Nandini : P-Please Sir! Try to understand.
Nandini ne kabhi bhi iss tarah ki situation se deal nahi kiya tha. Kyuki aisi naubat kabhi aayi hi nahi thi. Par aaj na jaane kiski nazar lag gayi thi unki hotel ko.
Nandini ne apne sehyogi logo ko dekha aur public ko shaant rakhne ke liye keh ke woh fauran hi andar kitchen ki orr bhaagi.
Andar aate hi woh zorr se boli,
Nandini : Ma'am!! Ma'am baahar situation ab out of control jaa rahi hai. Manage karna ab mushqil ho raha hai. Logo ka gussa badhta jaa raha hai.
Andar Bhumika chintit nazro se use dekhi. Kitchen me saamne saare chefs aur workers apna kaam dhaam chhodh ke ek jhund bana ke khade hue the.
Unn sab ke beech me hotel ka Head Chef apni guroor bhari muskaan liye khada tha. Head Chef woh hota tha jo kitchen me saare chefs ka head hota tha. Wahi baaki chefs ko nirdesh deta tha aur hotel acchi tarah se chal sake, isme uska bohut bada yogdaan hota tha.
Magar, Hotel Prestige ke Head Chef, Narang aaj kisi aur mood me hi tha. Kareeb 40-45 ki umr ka ye aadmi apne saath saath baakiyo ko bhi apne shadiyantra me shaamil kiye baitha tha.
Narang : Mein kahe deta hu! Hamari maange poori karo warna hum sab abhi ke abhi apni naukri chhodh denge.
Bhumika bechain ho uthi. Iske pehle bhi woh do baar uss Narang ki payment badha chuki thi. Iss se zyada woh afford nahi kar sakti thi. Balki, shayad hi koi itni payment deta hoga.
Bhumika : Aapki payment mein pehle hi do baar badha chuki hu. Ye theek nahi hai. Kahi aur jaa ke dekhiye. Koi bhi aapko-
Narang : Hmph! Toh theek hai. Chale jaata hu. Yaha se acchi pagaar milne ka offer wese hi aa chuka hai mujhe.
Bhumika : Huh!??
Narang : Chalo Bhai log!!
Narang ke saath kaafi log the. Magar saare nahi. Kuch the jo abhi bhi apni pagaar se khush the aur hotel ke hit ke liye hi kaam karna chaahte the. Hotel se unka lagaav tha. Par ye log chand hi the.
Bhumika ne jab dekha ki woh log jaa sakte hai toh woh darr gayi. Woh inhe jaane nahi de sakti thi. Agar aisa hua, toh hotel ke profit ke upar bohut bada antar aa sakta tha. Nuksaan hi nuksaan ho sakta tha.
Naye chefs ko dhundhna, unhe laana, fir wapas se kaam samjhana, ye sab na jaane kitna samay le sakta tha. Uske baad taste ka change hona. Harr chef apne dhang se khaana banata hai. Jo yaha pehle se bana rahe hai, unke jaisa agla aadmi nahi bana sakta.
Prestige ki yahi toh pehchaan thi. Uska taste!! Agar chefs badal jayenge, toh woh pehle jaisa taste kaise maintain kar payenge? Signature dishes ka kya hoga jo sirf head chef hi banaaya karta hai?
Inn vichaaro ne Bhumika ko ek chakravyuh me fasa diya. Agar Shweta yaha hoti toh woh ab tak chidh ke Narang ko bhaga chuki hoti. Usme itna tolerance nahi. Magar, Bhumika ke andar tolerance level kahi zyada tha.
Bhumika (frowns) : Ye aap theek nahi kar rahe. Baahar log apne khaane ka wait kar rahe hai. Ye saari baatein aap baad me bhi toh kar sakte the na? Abhi karne ki kya zaroorat thi?
Narang : Iska faisla abhi hi hoga. Baad me taalne wala kaam mera nahi. Kyu bhai log?
"Haan haan!! Faisla abhi hoga."
Bhumika : A-Aap sab-!!! Kya zara bhi pyaar nahi aapko iss hotel se? Itne saalo tak aap sab ne kaam kiya hai. Kya kabhi aapko kisi cheez ki taqleef hone di hai mene ya Mom ne?
Uski iss baat par kuch chefs apna sarr jhuka ke khade ho gaye. Baat satya thi. Aaj tak unhe kabhi bhi kisi bhi cheez ki taqleef nahi hui thi. Pagaar hamesha samay par mil jaaya karti thi. Tyohaaro me unhe bonus bhi milta tha. Kahi se bhi koi taqleef nahi thi.
Fir woh sab kyu apni itni shaleen maalkin ke khilaaf khade ho uthe? Jawaab tha ~ Narang!
Jisne bhadka ke unhe apne side kar liya tha. Thode se behkaave me aane ke baad woh ye tak bhul gaye ki isi hotel se unka ghar chalta tha. Aaj woh usi ko laat maar rahe the. Kahi na kahi unn sab ke andar ek glaani ki bhaavna zaroor jaagi. Magar ab woh itna aage badh chuke the. Ab peeche nahi hatt sakte the.
Narang : Hume bas saaf saaf jawab de do!
Bhumika duwidha me fas gayi. Kya kare woh?
Saath khadi Arohi bhi clueless thi. Kya karti woh bechari.
Arohi : Kaash Veer yaha hota-!!!
Uske muh se ye nikla hi tha ki-
"What's happening here???"
Ek jaani pehchaani awaaz uske kaano me padi.
'Huh???'
Bhumika aur Arohi dono ne mud ke dekha toh paaya ki Veer unke saamne khada hua tha. Woh abhi abhi kitchen me aaya tha. Baahar ke staff ne use andar jaane ke liye kaha tha.
Arohi : Veeeeeer!!!
Woh aage badh unke nazdeek aaya aur Bhumika ne use sab kuch samjha diya. Pehle toh Veer hassa aur uske baad usne Narang ko dekha,
Veer : Toh tumhe jawaab chahiye? Hmm?
Narang ne upar se neeche tak Veer ko dekha. Iss ladke ko usne pehle kabhi nahi dekha tha. Jis tarah se Bhumika aur Arohi uske saath pesh aa rahi thi, Narang ne ek anumaan laga liya ki ye ladka unka koi rishtedar hi tha. Apna guroor wapas se chehre par jhalkaate hue woh bola,
Narang : Hmph! Tum jawaab doge? Kherr! Jo bhi de, mujhe farq nahi padta. Bas, haan ya naa me bata do. Payment hamari badha rahe ho ya nahi?
Veer (smiles) : Theek hai! Toh mein deta hu tumhe jawaab!
Narang : Hmm!
Veer : GET LOST!
Narang : Huh???
Bhumika : Ahhh??? V-Veeer???
Narang ko jaise apne kaano par yakeen nahi hua. Bhumika ka bhi yahi haal tha. Woh iss waqt kaise bhi kar ke unhe rokna chaahti thi. Baahar sabhi khaane ka wait kar rahe the. Aise me ye kaisa nirnay tha ki Narang ko bhaga diya jaaye?
Narang : K-Kya kaha tumne?
Veer : Mene kaha, dafa ho jao!
Narang : Haah! Haha! Hahahahahaha!
Bhumika : Veer! Tum-!?
Narang : Mujhe toh laga tha thodi bohut aqal se kaam loge. Par- Hahahahaha!!!
Veer (smiles) : Aqal se hi kaam liya hai. Aur ye aqal pehle hi dikha deni chaahiye thi.
Narang : *frowns*
Veer : How much you pay him monthly?
Bhumika : Th-That's-!!! 60,000!!!
Veer (baffled) : 60 hazaar rupaye?? Aur pehle kitna pay karti thi?
Bhumika : 45,000!
Veer : 15,000 rupaye ka izaafa!! Mujhe nahi lagta ki aas paas ke kisi bhi hotel me kisi Head Chef ki itni payment hogi.
Narang : Ladke!! Tujhe pata hi kya hai? Hmph!!! Baahar jaake dekh zara. Casa Belle waale toh mujhe khushi khushi le lenge.
Bhumika : N-Nahi!!!
Bhumika ka darr jayaz tha.
Casa Belle!!!
Haal hi me khuli ek nayi hotel jo unke hotel ke paas hi thi. Ek 5 star hotel. Bhumika ka sapna tha ki woh apni iss hotel ko 5 star hotel me tabdeel kare. Duniya ki ekdum premium hotels me uski hotel ka naam jaana jaaye. Aur isi sapne ke liye woh jee tod mehnat kiya karti thi.
Lekin, Casa Belle ke aane ke baad se hi hotel ke liye mushqile badh rahi thi. Zyada crowd abhi bhi Prestige ke paas hi tha. Magar, kya hoga agar Narang jaise chefs uske paas se chale jaaye aur jaa ke Casa Belle me kaam karne lage?
Hotel toh band hone ki kagaar pe aa jayega.
Veer bas muskuraya. Aur woh khushi khushi bola,
Veer : Darwaze khule hai! Jaa sakte ho!
Narang : T-Tum-!!!
Bhumika : Veer! Nahi! Hum aisa nahi kar sakte. Jald se jald inn sab ko rokna hoga. Baahar shor badhta jaa raha hai. Th-Theek hai mein payment badhaane ke liye-
Veer : Hargiz nahi! Ek rupaya bhi badhaya nahi jayega. Payment aapke kaam ke hisaab se ekdum sahi hai. Balki, zyada hi hai. 50,000 is a very good amount for a head chef. Not to mention ki tum kisi 5 star hotel ke chef nahi ho. Aur na hi abhi hamari hotel ek fully 5 star hotel me tabdeel hui hai.
Narang : Toh theek hai-!!! Bhaad me jao tum! Madam ji! Ab sambhal lena aap. Baad me mere paas gidgidate hue mat aana.
Bhumika : V-Veeeeer!!! Ye kya kiya tumne? P-Please! Hum unhe jaane nahi de sakte.
Narang : Hmph! Chalo Bhai log!
Usne kaha, magar pehle ke muqaable ab sirf aadhe hi log Narang ke saath aaye. Baaki aadhe peeche hoke khade ho gaye. Veer ki baato ne jaise unhe abhaas dilaya tha ki unhe jo mil raha tha woh pehle se kahi zyada tha.
Narang : Hmm? Tum sab!!! Yahi rehne ka irada hai kya? Bhulo nahi ki aise mauke baar baar nahi aate. Pagaar badhaane ka iss se accha mauka nahi milega. Ye ghatiya hotel chhodho aur chalo mere saath. Mein tum sab ko 20% zyada pagaar dilwaunga pehle ke muqaable.
Chef 1 : 20% zyada?
Narang : Haan! Chalo ab! Narang ki zubaan hai.
Chef 1 : L-Lekin-!! Nahi! Nahi hum yahi theek hai.
Narang : Tum!!! Mene kaha chalo mere saath.
Uska haath jabran thaam Narang ne jab use ghaseetna chaaha toh ek mazboot haath ne uski kalaayi ko jakad liya.
Veer : Woh kahi nahi jayega!
Narang : Ladke-!!! Haath chhodh!! Woh toh madam ke yaha itne saal kaam kiya hai isliye haath nahi uthaya tujh par. Tu hota kaun hai mujhe rokne waala? Madam ke naate mein kuch kar nahi raha warna-
Veer : Warna!? Shukr manao ki unhi madam ke chalte tum ab tak sahi salamat ho. Itne saal kaam kiya hai isliye zyada kuch kiya nahi mene warna-
Narang : Hoshiyar samajhta hai apne aap ko? Saale teri toh-
*Swish*
Wahi par rakha ek bada sa chamcha utha ke Narang ne Veer ke sarr pe chalaya par woh late tha. Ya yu kahe ki Veer uss se hazaro guna tezz tha.
Agle hi shan Narang ke haath se woh chamcha gaayab hua,
LIMBO!!!
*Crack*
*Swoosh*
Narang ko uske peeche se shirt pakad ke Veer ne uska sarr turant hi-
*Plop*
Paani se bhare ganj me de maara.
*Blurgh!!* *Gulp* *glrggh*
Bhumika : Nooooo!!! You both-!!!! Stop it Please!!!
Paani se uske chehre ko nikaal Veer use darwaze ki orr laaya aur-
*BAMMMMMM*
Darwaza zorr se khula aur ek udta hua insaan kuch feet dur jaa ke gira.
Baahar baithi tamaam janta ekdum se shaant ho gayi. Jo shikaayte woh pehle kar rahe the. Maar dhaad dekh sabke sab ekdum se dubak ke baith gaye.
Narang : L-Ladkeeee-!!! Madar-
*Bammmmmmm*
"Ugggghhh!!!"
Veer ne use pakda aur use aise le gaya jaise maano woh kooda fekne jaa raha tha.
Veer : Security!!!
Guard 1 : H-Haan!
Veer : Aaj se ye chef nahi hai. Hamari hotel me kaam toh kya, shaqal bhi nahi dikhni chahiye iski.
[What a strong performance. That's what I like about you~ A strong boy... needs a strong 'Mommy'! Doesn't he?]
'Shut up!'
[Fufufu~ Sooner or later! You'll be mine! ♡]
Narang ke saath jitne bhi the, woh Veer ko ladta dekh ke hi sehem gaye.
Veer : Aur tum sab!? Jaana nahi hai?
"N-Nahi Sir! H-Hum kaam karne taiyaar hai. Hum-"
Veer : Out!!!
"???"
Veer : Iss se pehle ki yahi haal tum sab ka hoye. Mere bina kahe hi nikal jao!
Na chaahte hue bhi unn sabhi ko waha se nikalna pada. Unhone apne hi perr par kulhadi maar li thi. Acchi bhali naukri haath se gawa di.
Ab woh sab Narang ke hi bharose the. Idhar Bhumika ki jaan jaise halak me aa gayi. Veer ne sabke saamne hi Head Chef ko nikaal diya? Ab kya hoga?
Bhumika : Khatam! Sab khatam! Veer! Kyu kiya aisa??? Ab k-kaise-!?
Arohi : Trust him!
Bhumika : Huh?
Arohi : He must have thought of something.
Bhumika : Wh-What?
Narang aur uski toli ko bhagaane ke baad Veer apne customers ke saamne aaya aur usne apni baat rakhi,
Veer : Jo kuch bhi hua. Uss sab ke liye mein aapse maafi maangta hu. Darasal, hamare Head Chef ki zyaadti badh gayi thi. Aur unhe ayeena dikhana zaroori tha. Mujhe aap sab 10 minute dijiye. 10 minute ke andar andar orders lagne shuru ho jayenge. Mein waada karta hu, aisa swaad aapne kahi nahi chakha hoga.
Uske bolte hi aapsi me logo ki khusur pusur chaalu ho gayi.
"Theek hai lao Bhai! Ab itna late toh ho hi gaya hai."
"H-Haan! 10 minute dekh sakte hai."
Manzoori milne ke baad Veer muskuraate hue kitchen me gaya. Peeche peeche Bhumika aur Arohi bhi thi. Nandini wahi baahar reh ke logo ko sambhaale rahi.
Aur idhar andar aate hi,
*Ding*
[Intimidating Presence has been equipped.]
Veer : Tum sab!!! Apna apna naam batao! Jaldi!
Bache hue chefs se jaise hi Veer ne buland awaaz me pucha sab uske aage sehem gaye. Andar se hi ek respect waali bhaavna na jaane kyu jaagrit hone lagi.
Apna apna naam unn sabhi ne bataya. Bhumika ko chinta khaaye jaa rahi thi.
Bhumika : Veer ab kya hoga? Hum kaise manage karenge? Ye nahi hona chahiye tha.
Veer : Bhumika dii!
Bhumika : ???
Veer (smiles) : Woh Narang pehle se hi naukri chhodhne ke chakkar me tha.
Bhumika : Wh-What??
Veer : Kya aapne gaur nahi kiya? Kyu woh baar baar Casa Belle hotel ka zikr kar raha tha?
Bhumika : Woh-
Veer (smiles) : Casa Belle waale logo ne pehle se hi use ghoos de di hai shayad. Narang toh bas bahana dhoondh raha tha yaha se nikalne ka.
Bhumika : Ahh!!?
Veer : Isliye woh aisi betuki farmayish rakh raha tha. Use laga tha ki aap use naukri se nikaal dogi. Aur uska kaam bann jayega.
Bhumika : Y-Ye!?
Veer (smiles) : But you were persistent. Aap use jaane nahi de rahi thi. Uske liye aur mushqil ho raha tha. And that's why he opted for violence.
Bhumika : Ahhhnn! Y-Ye baat thi!?
Veer : I fulfilled his wish. Ab shayad hi woh kabhi accha khaana bana paaye. *smiles*
Bhumika : Hmm?
Veer (smiles) : Looks like we've got a new competition in the market. Anyways! Aap sab kuch mujh par chhodh dijiye.
Bhumika : B-But how-!?
Veer (screams) : CHEFS!!!!
"Y-Yesss sirrr!!!"
Veer ne apni shirt utaar apni kamar par baandhi. Haath dhoye aur woh taiyaar tha.
Veer : Get ready!!! Bhumika dii! Arohi dii! Order numbers dijiye. Pehle woh bataiye jaha orders adhura pohucha hai. Uske baad woh orders jaha bohut derr se khaana nahi pohucha. And lastly newest ones.
Bhumika : G-Got it!!
Arohi : Veer! Table number 7!!! Umm! 1 Dal fry, 1 Veg pulav, and 1 butter paneer masala!!
Veer : Got it!!!
Uske haath itni raftaar se chal rahe the ki baaki chefs apni aankhein faade dekhte reh gaye. Kahi koi choonk nahi, sab kuch perfection se ho raha tha.
Bhumika ne jab uski speed dekhi toh uska muh khula ka khula reh gaya. Speed hona koi bohut badi baat nahi thi.
Par full accuracy ke saath speed hona, ye bilkul naamumkin jaisa tha. Kahi koi cheez gir nahi rahi thi. Tel ki maatra, pan ko saute karne ka dhang, ingredients ki maatra sab kuch jaise ekdum perfectly daala jaa raha tha.
Veer : Vijayyy!!!
Vijay : Y-Yes Chef!?
Veer : Tomato soup!!! Table number 9 ke liye. Abhi!!!
Vijay : Y-Yes Chef!!!
Veer : Toasted bread piece daalna mat bhulna!!
Vijay : Y-Yes!!
Veer : Coriander ki garnishing!!!
Vijay (shouts) : Yessssss Chef!!!
Veer : Rohitttt!!!!
Rohit : H-Haan??
Veer : Same table!!! Dry Manchurian!!
Rohit : Y-Yess Chef!!!
*Clang* *Schling*
Bartano ki khat-pat awaazo ke saath aur chaaku chhuriya ki dhaar ke sang Veer ne kitchen me ek alag hi aura bhar diya.
Baaki chefs Veer ki skills dekh, uss se order lete hue itne motivate ho gaye ki woh harsho-ullas ke saath khaana banaane me jutt gaye. Asli swaad tabhi aata hai jab ek chef dil se khushi khushi uss khaane ko banaaye. Aaj wahi ho raha tha.
Bhumika ne aisa drishya pehle kabhi nahi dekha tha. Veer ko kaam karta dekh, uski dhadkane tezz ho uthi. Sach kehte hai. Ek mard sabse zyada attractive tab hi lagta hai jab woh apne kaam me leen ho.
Woh yaha uss Narang ki payment badhaane ke chakkar me thi. Aur yaha Veer ne ek jhalak me uske shadiyantra ko pakad liya tha.
Bhumika : I have so much yet to learn...! M-Mein use samajh nahi saki theek se.
Arohi (smiles) : That's okay! As long as you keep faith in him!
Bhumika (smiles) : I see now! Thank you! Arohi!
Arohi (smiles) : Mmm~
Baahar jaise jaise dishes aati gayi, logo ke mann se woh doubt khatam ho gaya. Jaise jaise unhone khaane ka swaad chakha sab ke sab chakit reh gaye. Baat sahi thi. Aaj tak unn sabhi ne iss tarah ka swaad nahi chakha tha. Dishes toh same hi thi. Lekin, ek naya zaayka tha usme. Kuch extra tha. Jo woh bata nahi paa rahe the.
Akhir kaar ye silsila khatam hua. Raat ke 10:30 baj rahe the. Rush samaapt ho chuka tha. Veer ne aaj se pehle kabhi itna khaana nahi banaaya tha.
Garmi ke chalte woh poora paseene se lath-path tha. Hotel ke baahar closed ka sign lag chuka tha.
Dining area me hi woh ek kursi par AC ke neeche baith gaya.
Uske bagal se Arohi thi toh wahi dusri orr Bhumika.
Arohi ne ek towel lete hue uska paseena pochha.
Veer (smiles) : Thank you!
Arohi : Thank you!
Veer : Hmm?
Arohi : For working this hard!
Bhumika ne achanak se uski baah ko apne haatho ke ird gird liya.
Veer : ???
Bhumika : Veer! Aaj sab ne khaane ki itni zyaada tareef ki hai ki mein tumhe bata nahi sakti. Aisa pehle kabhi nahi hua.
Veer : Haha!
Bhumika : No doubt woh Narang accha khana banaata tha. Lekin, kabhi bhi public aise react nahi karti thi. Jo kuch bhi tamasha aaj hua, uss se public darr bhi gayi thi. Isliye mene unhe Sunday ka special offer ka coupon bhi diya hai. Umeed hai ye swaad chakhne ke baad woh zaroor ayenge.
Veer : Of course!
Bhumika (frowns) : L-Lekin-! Ye toh sirf aaj ke liye tha. Aaj tumne madad kar di. Aage kya hoga?
Veer : Don't worry! Aapke liye mene naya head chef bhi dhoondh liya hai.
Bhumika : Kya??? Kaun hai woh?
Veer (smiles) : You'll know soon!
Woh aankhein band thodi derr khud ko durust karne laga jab,
*Puch*
'Huh?'
Do narm honth uske gaal par lag gaye. Bhumika ne sharmaate hue uske gaal ko chooma.
Bhumika (blushes) : Th-Thank you so much!!!
Veer : Ahem! D-Don't mention it!
***
Yaha toh sab nipat chuka tha. Magar inn beete ghante Sonali kaha thi?
Food truck se nikalne ke baad woh Kaushik ke sang pradarshani dekhne gayi thi. Khayaal toh use Veer ka hi aa raha tha.
Kintu, Kaushik ki lagataar baato ko sunn aur pradarshani me mauj masti kar uska dhyaan Veer par se thoda hatt gaya.
Derr raat ho rahi thi. Usne aaj khoob enjoy kiya tha. Ab lautne ka samay tha.
Kaushik ka dost bhi jaa chuka tha. Ab woh khud hi gaadi chala raha tha.
Kaushik : Kya iss nacheez ke saath sundari jii ko thoda bohut bhi accha laga?
Sonali : Hahaha! Tumhari baatein betuki hai. Aur mujh par line maarna band kar do.
Kaushik : Uui maa! Pakda gaya kya mein?
Sonali : Kab ke!!! Chalo! Aur mujhe jaldi se wapas se truck par chhodh do. Prachi ab aur late nahi ruk payegi.
Kaushik : Bilkul! Bilkul!
Sonali ko raaste pata nahi the. Magar kuch na kuch mod yaad zaroor the.
Jab Kaushik ne truck dusri disha me moda toh uski bauhe kass uthi.
Sonali : Arre? Y-Ye raasta nahi hai. Woh waala mod tha.
Kaushik : Jaane dijiye na! Aaj yaha se chalte hai. Kaafi saari khubsoorat jagaahe hai yaha pe. Aapko dikhata hu.
Sonali : N-Nahi! Raat bohut ho gayi hai. Aur mujhe ab jaana hai.
Kaushik : Maaniye toh baat-!!
Sonali : Mene kaha na-!!! Ye-! Ye kya kar rahe ho tum??
Kaushik : Nahi!! A-Aaj aapko meri baat maanami padegi.
Woh uski orr mudte hue bola. Uski muskaan me iss baar hawas ke iraade jhalak rahe the.
Sonali : !!???

Mega Update
Update - 154 ~ The Prestige's Ordeal
Ab tak...
Kintu, samasya kabhi na aaye aisa kaise ho sakta tha. Jaha abhi sab kuch accha chal raha tha ki itne me hi Bhumika ko ek call aaya. Usne call receive kar jab baat suni toh uski aankhein hairat me fel gayi.
Phone cut karte hi woh Veer ko dekhi,
Bhumika : Veer!! Ek problem ho gayi hai.
Magar woh akeli nahi thi. Truck se Prachi daudte hue aayi aur jaldbazi me boli,
Prachi : Ek nahi-! Do problem hai!!
Veer : Huh!!???
Ab aage...
Kehte hai ki bhagwan jab deta hai toh chhappar faad ke deta hai. Magar, kayi baar aisa bhi hota hai ki ek musibat ki jagah kaho anek musibatein saath me hi aa jaaye.
Veer iss samay isi duwidha me tha. Ek taraf woh Bhumika ko dekh raha tha jo chinta me uske saamne khadi thi toh wahi dusri taraf Prachi ko jo food truck se nikal ke jaldbaazi me aayi thi.
Samasyao ne darwaza khat-khata diya tha. Akhir, chal kya raha tha yaha? Veer ne pehle Bhumika se hi puchna sahi samjha.
Veer : Pehle aap bataiye! Kya hua hai?
Bhumika (frowns) : Veer! Ek bohut badi problem ho gayi hai.
Veer : Hotel me kuch-!?
Bhumika (nods) : Haan!
Veer : Kya dikkat hai?
Bhumika : Woh- Woh Head Chef-!!!
Veer : Head Chef?
Bhumika : Hmm! He's very troublesome to deal with. Pehle bhi woh kayi baar aisa kar chuka hai.
Veer : Kya kiya hai usne?
Bhumika : Baaki chefs ko bhadkana. Pay increase karne ke liye. Mein pehle hi 2 baar payment badha chuki hu. Magar-!! Oh no! Firse call aa raha hai. Veer! Mujhe jaana hoga!
Veer (nods) : Ek kaam kariye. Aap pohuchiye, mein aapke peeche peeche aata hu.
Bhumika : Alright!
Bhumika jaldbaazi me daudte hue waha se apni car ki orr nikli. Par, aisi sthiti me uska akela jaana theek nahi tha. Isliye,
Veer : Arohi dii?
Arohi (nods) : Mmm~ I got it!
Woh toh jaise bina kuch kahe hi samajh gayi. Bina Veer ko jawaab diye woh waha se tezz qadmo ke saath Bhumika ke peeche peeche chal di. Aur idhar Veer ke hontho par ek halki si muskaan saj gayi. Woh fir Prachi ki orr muda,
Veer : Ab tum batao! Kya hua hai?
Prachi : W-Woh-!
Veer : Ghabrane ki zaroorat nahi. Khul ke batao!
Prachi : Okay! Actually, baat ye hai ki- Ab aap toh jaante ho ki aapke kitne food trucks hai. Magar, aap harr ek ko daily dekhne nahi aa sakte. Right?
Veer : Mmm-hmm!
Prachi : Toh aaye din workers badalte rehte hai. Koi jaata hai toh koi naya aa jaata hai.
Veer : So?
Prachi : So, hua ye hai ki- Sir! Kaushik naam ka ek ladka hai.
Veer : Kaushik?
Prachi (nods) : Hmm! Woh morning waala breakfast ka jo ek aur food truck hai usme rehta hai. Uske saath ek aur ladka hai. Uske saath wala ladka accha hai lekin ye Kaushik-
Veer : Kuch kiya hai kya?
Prachi : N-Nahi!
Veer : Toh?
Prachi : Ab ho sakta hai mein zyada soch rahi hu. P-Par Sonali di jo hai-
Veer : Sonali ka kya?
Prachi : Sir, woh Kaushik aaj kal har roz shaam ko yaha aata hai aur fir Sonali di se meethi meethi baatein karta hai.
Veer : Hmm?
Prachi : Aur Sonali di use bas daant deti hai magar- Mujhe lagta hai jaise Kaushik ki baatein unhe pasand bhi aati hai.
Veer : I see! So, what's the problem?
Prachi : Problem ye hai ki- Mujhe lagta hai ki woh Kaushik kuch theek nahi hai.
Veer : Aisa kyu bhala? Agar woh theek nahi tha toh use hire kisne kiya?
Prachi : Sonali di ne hi. Uske kaam me koi dikkat nahi hai Sir.
Veer : Fir kya dikkat hai? Behaviour?
Prachi : Haan! Ho sakta hai mein kuch zyada overthink kar rahi hu. Mujhe jo laga woh mene aapko bata diya. Mujhe woh ladka theek nahi lagta.
Veer : Theek nahi lagta as in? Kya kuch gadbad kar raha hai? Ya kar sakta hai?
Prachi : Actually-
Veer : Prachi! Tumhe hich-kichane ki zaroorat nahi. Owner mein hu. Tum kaho! Tumhara koi kuch nahi ukhaad sakta. Just say!
Prachi : O-Okay! Shayad Kaushik-
Veer : Hmm?
Prachi : Sonali di ko paana chaahta hai.
Veer : Kya Sonali ko Kaushik pasand hai?
Prachi : Shayad haan! Like woh daant lagati hai use. Seedhe muh baat nahi karti par mene unko uski baato par muskuraate dekha hai.
Prachi ki baat par Veer ko thodi hairani hui. Sonali kisi ladke ki baato par muskura rahi thi?
Use Suman ko kahi gayi apni hi baat yaad aa gayi~
'Agar woh kisi aur ko chaahegi, toh mein use jaane dunga!'
Veer ko yaad hai ki usne isi kaaran kabhi Sonali ko Suman aur Aabha ki tarah apna slave nahi maana tha. Kyuki, ho sakta tha ki Sonali use apne maalik ke roop me sweekaar na kare. Ho sakta tha ki use koi aur ladka pasand aa jaaye.
Shayad aaj woh din aa chuka tha. Veer ne ek gehri saans li.
Veer : Agar use pasand hai. Toh kya dikkat hai?
Veer ko kehte hue pata nahi kyu accha nahi lag raha tha lekin fir bhi usne keh diya. Prachi ne jab ye suna toh woh hairat me use ghoor ke dekhi.
Prachi : A-Aap ko parvaah nahi?
Veer : Hmm? Isme parvaah kaisi? Sonali ko agar koi pasand hai toh acchi baat hai na woh toh-!?
Prachi : Eh? I-I thought-!!
Bechari Prachi duwidha me fas ke reh gayi. Use laga tha ki Veer aur Sonali ke beech kuch chal raha tha isliye woh bhaagi bhaagi daud ke ye baat use bataane aayi thi. Par yaha toh aisa prateet ho raha tha jaise Veer aur Sonali ke beech kuch tha hi nahi.
Woh toh ye soch ke aayi thi ki woh unn dono ke pyaar ko bacha legi. Par-
Veer : Sonali samajhdar hai. In case kuch gadbad tumhe lagti hai toh mujhe call kar dena.
Prachi : Mene aapko abhi toh bataya. Woh ladka theek nahi hai.
Veer : Hmm! Mene sunn liya hai Prachi. Par tumhare paas abhi kuch proof bhi nahi hai. Isliye keh raha hu, kuch gadbad lage toh mujhe call kar dena. You have my number, right?
Prachi : H-Haan!
Veer : I'll leave then!
Prachi : B-But-!!
Veer uski baat sune bagerr hi food truck ki orr chal diya. Andar Sonali dishes banaane me lagi hui thi.
Toh wahi road ke uss paar ek aur food truck khada hua tha. Jisme Kaushik aur ek aur worker maujood the.
Kaushik Sonali ko dekh apne lund ko masalne me laga hua tha. Aur uska saath driving seat par baitha tha.
Worker : Dekh! Mein abhi bhi keh raha hu. Woh teri pohuch ke baahar ki ladki hai. Upar se owner ki koi rishtedar lagti hai mujhe toh. Tujhse nahi patne waali.
Kaushik : Abe, tu jaanta hi kya hai ladkiyo ke baare me. Dekhta jaa bas tu. Gaav ki chhori hai. Chaahta toh mein uss Prachi ko set kar sakta tha. Magar, woh yahi Mumbai ki hai. Uss saali ko mere upar kuch shaq sa hai.
Worker : Woh ladki samajhdar hai!
Kaushik : Lekin, ye Sonali gaav se hai. Ise sheher ka utna gyaan nahi. Ise set karna asaan hai. Saali ko chodne me kya maza aayega. Lita lita ke chodunga.
Worker : Mein abhi bhi keh raha hu. Uss se dur hi reh.
Kaushik : Kya jhandu aadmi hai bey tu? Kabhi choot maari hai?
Worker : Nahi!
Kaushik : Bas yahi toh dikkat hai tumhari. Abe jaise ek nashedi insaan bina nashe ke reh nahi sakta na? Wese hi ye lund hai. Ek baar ye choot ka swaad chakh le na toh bina choot maare nahi rehta.
Worker : Choot ke chakkar me lene ke dene bhi pad jaate hai. Aur isliye, mein apne kaam se hi matlab rakhta hu.
Kaushik : Haan toh tu wahi kar. Mere kaam me taang mat ada. Mere lund ko choot ki zaroorat hai. Agar ye set ho gayi, toh fir kehne hi kya. Naukri bhi karte raho, free ki choot bhi maarte jao. Hahahaha! Pagaar ki pagaar. Upar se food truck ke maalik ki sambandhi hai woh. Sab set hai.
Worker (sighs) : Tu jaane aur tera kaam jaane.
Kaushik apne saathi ki baato ko ek kaan se sunn dusre kaan se nikal diya. Tabhi, uski nazar Veer par padi jo Sonali ke food truck me jaa raha tha.
Kaushik : Iski maa ka- Jaldi, gaadi waha laga.
Worker : Kyu? Kya hua?
Kaushik : Abe yahi owner hai na?
Worker (squints) : H-Haan shayad-! Haan yahi hai. Veer Sir!
Kaushik : Haan toh gaadi laga waha. Turant!
Worker : Haan haan!
Kaushik ke saathi ne food truck chaalu kar aage badhaya aur U-turn lete hue woh road ke iss side par aa gaya jaha Sonali ka food truck maujood tha.
Jab tak ye log yaha aa rahe the tab tak Veer aur Sonali ke beech alag vartalaap chal raha tha.
Veer : Sab theek toh chal raha hai na?
Sonali : Hmm? Aaj tumhe itna parvaah kaise hone lagi? Aise toh kabhi jhaakne nahi aate.
Veer : Kya mein puch nahi sakta?
Sonali : Puch sakte ho! Bilkul puch sakte ho. Sab kuch tumhara hi toh hai. Jo chaahe karo! Bhala mein kaun hoti hu-?
Veer (sighs) : Mera matlab ye hai ki kahi koi gadbad toh nahi hai. Koi dikkat toh nahi hai na? Sab theek hai?
Sonali ne do pal ke liye use dekha fir muh fula ke mudte hue boli,
Sonali : Hmm! Sab theek hai!
Veer (nods) : Alright! Agar koi- Agar koi problem ho toh mujhse share kar sakti ho. Okay?
Sonali (confused) : Tumhari tabiyat toh theek hai na?
Veer : I-!! Leave it! Apna dhyaan rakhna. Aur, apne aas paas ke logo ka bhi.
Sonali : Huhh!? Kya matlab? Aaj subah subah kahi sarr bhidwa ke aaye ho kya? Kaisi behki behki baatein kar rahe ho?
Veer kuch keh paata ki itne me Kaushik apne saathi ke sang truck leke haazir tha.
Window se nikal ke hi woh haath hilaate hue chillaaya,
Kaushik : Arre! Haha! Sir! Aaj mile ho aap! Warna kabhi darshan hi nahi hue aap ke toh batao.
Uske aate hi,
'Check!'
Veer ne usko poori tarah se scan kar liya. Kahi koi gadbad nazar nahi aayi. Kaushik ek aam ladka hi tha. Thoda awara-gardi karne waala tha magar kaam uska theek tha. Koi chor, gunda, mawali nahi tha woh. Jab Veer ne ye dekha ki kahi kuch gadbad nahi hai. Toh usne ek raahat ki saans li.
Kya iska matlab Prachi bewajah hi chintit ho rahi thi?
Prachi, jo theek unke saath khadi hui thi woh Kaushik ko aata dekh ke hi tension me aa gayi.
Veer ne idhar Kaushik ke aate hi uski baat ka jawaab diya,
Veer : Ohh! Naye ho?
Kaushik : Ji Sir!
Veer : Kya naam?
Kaushik : Ji Kaushik!
Veer : Alright! Acche se kaam karna.
Kaushik : Aap fiqr mat karo Sir! Mein apna kaam poori lagan se karta hu. Lekin, aaj aap se ek permission lena chaahta hu. Umeed hai aap mana nahi karoge.
Veer : Kaisi permission?
Kaushik : Woh kya hai na, kuch dino pehle pradarshani lagi hai yahi paas me. Mujhe jaana tha zara.
Veer (nods) : Theek hai! Tum jaldi jaa sakte ho.
Kaushik : Na na na na! S-Sirf mein nahi!
Veer : Toh?
Kaushik : Ahem! Woh kya hai na! Ab akela mein kya karunga Sir waha. Saath me koi hona chahiye na? Sundar si pradarshani ko dekhne ke liye ek sundari bhi toh honi chahiye na saath me? Hai na?
Veer : Bilkul!
Veer ne keh toh diya magar uske chehre par koi bhaav nahi the. Woh Kaushik ko aise dekh raha tha jaise kisi namoone ko dekh raha ho.
[Oh my~ Look at this worthless ant! A toad wishing to eat swan meat.]
Pari ke muh se bhi Kaushik ke liye beizzati hi nikli. Do kaudi ka ladka uske Master se hi unki hi bandi ko ghumaane ki permission maang raha tha. What a joke!
Magar-
Sonali ne jab Kaushik ki baatein suni, toh woh hass padi.
'Hmm?'
[Oh! Lagta hai~ Tumne apna swaad ise nahi chakhaya. What a mistake you have made my baby~ Isliye kehti hu. Forget all this. Come to me! Surrender to me! Call me 'Mommy' and I will make you the most powerful man in this world.]
'Please stop!!!'
Veer Pari se baat karne ke mood me nahi tha abhi. Sonali ne Kaushik ki baat sunn Veer ko dekha jaise maano woh dekhna chaah rahi ho ki Veer kaise react karta hai.
Veer (sighs) : No! This is work time. Tum khud jaana chaahte ho, koi manahi nahi hai. Jaa sakte ho. Par, staff me se kisi aur ko apne sang le jaana? Ye mein allow nahi kar sakta. Shaam hone waali hai aur ab rush hours rahenge. So, it's a strict 'NO' from my side.
Veer ka jawaab sunte hi jaise Kaushik ke muh pe 12 baj gaye. Kintu, usne aisa dikhaya nahi. Farzi muskan liye woh hassa aur punah bola,
Kaushik : Hahahaha! Arre kya Sir? Subah se din tak itna toh kaam kiya hai humne. Aur mein jaanta hu, sundari ka bhi ghoomne ka mann hoga. Ahem! Mera matlab hai Sonali ji ka! *winks*
Kaushik Sonali ko hi sundari keh ke itni derr se sambodhit kar raha tha. Jiske chalte, Sonali bas nazre ferr muskuraaye jaa rahi thi. Ye ladka roz uske paas kisi na kisi bahane se aaya karta aur roz apni fizool baato se use entertain karta.
Par kahi na kahi, ab uski fizool baatein hi Sonali ko jaise pasand aane lagi thi. Galti uski nahi thi. Balki, galti kisi ki bhi nahi thi.
Gaav ki ek aam ladki hone ke kaaran, Sonali ke standards ladko ko lekar behad hi low the. Shuru se hi woh apne baap Pushpendra aur uske bete Amit jaiso ko dekhti aayi thi. Jo ek number ke nalle, jaahil, gawaar aur nashedi aadmi the.
Aisi biraadri me rehne ke baad, Sonali ko ladke me bas itna hi chahiye rehta tha ki koi use sukhi rakh sake. Uski qadr kare. Bas!! Yahi the uske standards aur uski maangein.
Veer jaisa ladka uski expectations se bhi kahi zyada tha. Upar se uski khud ki maa, aur bhabhi apni taangein fela ke apne aap ko Veer ke prati samarpit kar chuki thi. Kahi na kahi, Sonali ke antarmann me ye dhaarna thi ki Veer bhala use kyu chaahega?
Uske paas toh ladkiyo ki line lagi hui thi. Magar maajra toh kuch aur hi tha, jo bechari woh nahi jaanti thi. Kisi aur ladke ka aana aur Sonali se iss tarah rubaru hona. Ye Veer ko na jaane kyu magar zara bhi pasand nahi aa raha tha.
Kaushik ke aamantran par usne turant hi naahi jataayi,
Veer : Nahi! Sonali ko kaam hai aur woh kahi nahi jayegi.
Kaushik : Arre ye kya baat hui Sir? Thoda hamare baare me bhi sochiye!
Veer : Nahi! Mene kaha na ki Sonali nahi-
Kintu,
Sonali : Kyu nahi? Kab se mein bhi subah se lage lage thak gayi thi. Pradarshani mujhe bhi dekhni thi. Na jaane kab se nahi dekhi. Isi bahaane thodi kamar bhi seedhi ho jayegi.
Veer : S-Sonali? T-Tum!?
Sonali : Haan! Kya mein nahi thakti? Mujhe bhi ghoomne ka mann karta hai. Aur kaun sa roz roz chhutti leti hu?
Veer : Tum aise kaise-!? Mujhe abhi zaroori kaam se jaana hai. Prachi akele nahi sambhal payegi. Tum iss waqt-
Sonali : Haan haan! Mujhe pata hai! Koi kaam nahi hai tumhara! Ab T.V me aa rahe ho iska matlab ye nahi ki harr waqt vyast ho tum. Ab aaye ho toh sambhalo apna yeh truck. Jaise uss din sambhala tha!?
Kaushik : Arre waah! Hahahaha! Kya baat hai! Dekha na Sir? Sab ki hi iccha hai. Mein toh kehta hu aaj aap chhutti hi dedo. Aa jao sundari- Mera matlab hai Sonali ji! Aaiye chalte hai! Thoda ghoom ke aate hai.
Bechari Sonali ye nahi jaanti thi ki abhi abhi Bhumika ki hotel me musibat aayi hai. Woh iss baat se anjaan thi. Woh nahi jaanti thi ki Veer ko abhi jald hi nikalna tha. Woh toh yahi samjhi ki Veer koi bahana bana raha tha.
Woh Kaushik se bhi parichit thi. Ye pehli baar nahi tha jab woh uske waale truck me baith rahi thi. Jab use hire kiya tha tab bhi woh Kaushik ke sang baith ke use venues ke baare me batayi thi. Kaha food truck lagana hai, kaise kaam karna hai. Toh isme ghabrane waali koi baat hi nahi thi ki woh akeli jaa rahi hai.
Saath hi woh Veer ko tang karne me kaha peeche hatati thi? Ye nirnay lete hi woh mann hi mann thahaake laga rahi thi. Soch rahi thi ki Veer chidhega aur tu-tu main-main karega.
Yahi soch woh truck se nikli aur Kaushik ke truck me chali gayi. Prachi muh khole bas nazara dekhti rahi. Jis train ko woh sahi se chalane ki koshish kar rahi thi woh toh patri se hi utar gayi. Naiyaa dubti hui nazar aa rahi thi use. Woh Veer ko bas hamdardi liye dekhi.
Aur mann me hi sochne lagi,
'Kya kar diya ye aapne Sonali di? Aapne Veer Sir jaise ladke ko haath se jaane diya? Agar mein aapki jagah hoti, toh uss Kaushik chhapri ko ghaas tak nahi daalti. Ye kya kar diya aapne?'
Sonali idhar muskaan liye seat par baithi aur truck chaalu hoke waha se chalne laga.
Magar jaise hi uski nazre Veer par tiki toh woh ghabra uthi. Veer ke chehre par taajub bhare bhaav the.
Woh Sonali ko aise dekh raha tha jaise use pehli baar dekh raha ho. Jaise usne koi aisa kaam kar diya ho jiski Veer ko umeed hi nahi thi. Achanak hi, Sonali ke dil ki dhadkane bechaini ke chalte tezz ho uthi. Par, truck chal chuka tha.
Use ye abhaas hua ki taang kheechne ke chakkar me kahi na kahi shayad usne Veer ko thes pohucha di hai. Ye sab kya ho raha tha?
Veer ke chehre par woh bhaav usne aaj se pehle kabhi nahi dekhe the. Kya uss se koi bhul ho gayi? Kya woh zyada bol gayi?
Sonali : N-Nahi-!!! R-Ruko-!
Par tab tak bohut derr ho chuki thi. Food truck kaafi aage badh chuka tha. Aur Sonali, sheeshe se Veer ke chehre ko dekh paa rahi thi. Na jaane kyu par uske dil me ek ajeeb sa dard utha.
Ab jaise sab kuch galat lag raha tha. Ye pradarshani, ye thakaan, Veer ki taang kheechna, jaise ab sab bhul chuki thi woh. Ab jaise inka koi artha hi nahi reh gaya tha. Kyuki jise sataane ke liye usne ye kiya tha wahi use hataash hue naraazgi me dekh raha tha. Veer ki wahi akhiri chhavi uske mann me bas gayi aur ek vichitr sa dard chhodh gayi.
Truck yaha se Veer ki aankhon se ojhal ho gaya. Sonali ke andar wapas jaane ki himmat bhi nahi aayi aur na hi woh kuch samajh paayi ki ye kya hua abhi abhi. Veer ko uss tarah dekh, uske dil me itna dard kyu uth raha tha?
'Iss se pehle-! Iss se pehle mene use kabhi aise nahi dekha! K-Kahi mein kuch zyada toh nahi bol gayi na? Agar woh bura maan gaya toh-!!!'
Lekin, ab sochne se kya fayda jab chidiya chug gayi khet. Woh ye nahi jaanti thi ki aane waale pal uske liye kaise hone waale the. Uske peeche khada Kaushik apni ghatiya nazro se uske badan ko taadne me laga hua tha. Muh se laar tapakne ki deri thi bas.
'Aaj toh teri seal tod hi dunga Sonali darling!!!'
***
"Ye kya kiya aapne?"
Truck ke jaate hi Veer ke peeche se Prachi ki naraazgi bhari awaaz aayi.
Veer : Kya?
Lag raha tha jaise woh Veer se bhi kahi zyada nirash thi.
Prachi : Aapne unhe jaane diya?
Veer (turns back) : Mene unhe jaane diya?
Veer ke sawaal par Prachi maun reh gayi. Usne jaane nahi diya tha. Balki, woh sabhi khud hi chale gaye the.
Veer chaahta toh ek baar me yaha maujood ek ek ki hekdi nikaal deta. Use bas 'Intimidating Presence' equip karne ki zaroorat thi. Uska aura mehsoos kar ke hi unn sab ki bolti band ho jaati. Lekin, usne aisa na kiya.
Prachi bas saantvna liye use dekhti rahi. Veer ke dil pe kya guzar rahi thi jaise woh jaanti thi.
Woh hairaan tha. Use thes pohuchi thi. Taajub iss baat ka nahi tha ki Sonali Kaushik ke saath gayi. Taajub iss baat ka tha ki Sonali uski baat ka yakeen na kar ke Kaushik ki baat ka yakeen kar chali gayi.
Kitne mahine ho chuke the use aur Sonali ko ek chhat ke neeche rehte hue? Usne apni taraf se kya kami chhodhi thi Sonali ke liye? Dard bas yahi tha ki Sonali ne ek baar bhi uski baat pe vishvaas na kiya. Aur bina poori baat sune nikal gayi. Yahi kaaran tha jo uske chehre par aashcharya tha.
Prachi : A-Ab?
Veer : You stay here! Mujhe kuch kaam hai! Mein aata hu baad me.
Prachi : O-Okay!
Woh aage kuch na keh paayi. Veer turant hi uske hawaale food truck chhodh seedha Hotel Prestige yaani ki Bhumika aur Shweta ki hotel ki orr nikal gaya.
***
Hotel Prestige
Evening ~ 6:08 PM
"Ye sab kya laga rakha hai, haan?"
"Aur nahi toh kya? Hum sab kya bewakoof hai?"
"Arre jab nahi ho paa raha hai toh lena hi nahi chahiye na order. Kaisa management hai aapka?"
"Paisa bhar dikhta hai inhe Bhai sahab. Baaki grahak ki qadr thodi hi hai."
"Sahi kaha!"
"Mein khud aadhe ghante se wait kar raha hu. Family saath me hai. Order le liya hai magar abhi tak table par paani ka jug tak nahi aaya hai. Ab batao!"
"Ye koi dhang thode hi hai. Bhai nahi ho raha aapse toh bata do. Band kar do. Hai na? Aadmi apni dusri jagah jaaye. Usko pehle hi bata do."
"Bilkul! Bilkul!"
"Haan! Samay ki barbadi hai aise me toh-"
"Mein bhi family saath aaya hu. Ab mera order pehle de diya. Aur abhi tak baccho ka order nahi aaya. Ye kya baat hui? Matlab mein unke saamne akele akele khau ab? Aap batao bhai. Family time ka matlab kya hota hai? Aadmi hotel kyu jaata hai?"
"Bilkul! Bilkul! Parivar ke saath khaane ke liye hi toh aata hai. Par ye baat ye kaha samajhte hai-"
"Sahi kaha ji. Darasal, ye aaj kal harr hotel ka bann gaya hai. Jab jab holiday waale din rehte hai ye uss din jaan boojh ke itna rush ghuswa lete hai laalach ke chakkar me. Baad me inse manage hota nahi hai."
Kayi saare log reception area me khade ek dusre se baatein karne me lage hue the aur counter ke uss side khadi Nandini jo ki hotel ki manager thi bas ghabra ke sab kuch dekh rahi thi.
Nandini : Sir! Please! Shaanti banaye rakhiye. Dekhiye! Thodi si problem ho gayi hai. Baat samajhne ki koshish kariye. Aisa kabhi hota nahi hai. Par aaj thodi si dikkat ho gayi hai.
"Arre kya dikkat ho gayi hai?"
"Haan haan! Jab nahi ho paa raha toh pehle batana chahiye."
"Shaam ke samay me ye haal hai, socho raat me kya hoga jab dinner ke liye aur families aayengi."
"Band kar do hotel."
Nandini : P-Please Sir! Try to understand.
Nandini ne kabhi bhi iss tarah ki situation se deal nahi kiya tha. Kyuki aisi naubat kabhi aayi hi nahi thi. Par aaj na jaane kiski nazar lag gayi thi unki hotel ko.
Nandini ne apne sehyogi logo ko dekha aur public ko shaant rakhne ke liye keh ke woh fauran hi andar kitchen ki orr bhaagi.
Andar aate hi woh zorr se boli,
Nandini : Ma'am!! Ma'am baahar situation ab out of control jaa rahi hai. Manage karna ab mushqil ho raha hai. Logo ka gussa badhta jaa raha hai.
Andar Bhumika chintit nazro se use dekhi. Kitchen me saamne saare chefs aur workers apna kaam dhaam chhodh ke ek jhund bana ke khade hue the.
Unn sab ke beech me hotel ka Head Chef apni guroor bhari muskaan liye khada tha. Head Chef woh hota tha jo kitchen me saare chefs ka head hota tha. Wahi baaki chefs ko nirdesh deta tha aur hotel acchi tarah se chal sake, isme uska bohut bada yogdaan hota tha.
Magar, Hotel Prestige ke Head Chef, Narang aaj kisi aur mood me hi tha. Kareeb 40-45 ki umr ka ye aadmi apne saath saath baakiyo ko bhi apne shadiyantra me shaamil kiye baitha tha.
Narang : Mein kahe deta hu! Hamari maange poori karo warna hum sab abhi ke abhi apni naukri chhodh denge.
Bhumika bechain ho uthi. Iske pehle bhi woh do baar uss Narang ki payment badha chuki thi. Iss se zyada woh afford nahi kar sakti thi. Balki, shayad hi koi itni payment deta hoga.
Bhumika : Aapki payment mein pehle hi do baar badha chuki hu. Ye theek nahi hai. Kahi aur jaa ke dekhiye. Koi bhi aapko-
Narang : Hmph! Toh theek hai. Chale jaata hu. Yaha se acchi pagaar milne ka offer wese hi aa chuka hai mujhe.
Bhumika : Huh!??
Narang : Chalo Bhai log!!
Narang ke saath kaafi log the. Magar saare nahi. Kuch the jo abhi bhi apni pagaar se khush the aur hotel ke hit ke liye hi kaam karna chaahte the. Hotel se unka lagaav tha. Par ye log chand hi the.
Bhumika ne jab dekha ki woh log jaa sakte hai toh woh darr gayi. Woh inhe jaane nahi de sakti thi. Agar aisa hua, toh hotel ke profit ke upar bohut bada antar aa sakta tha. Nuksaan hi nuksaan ho sakta tha.
Naye chefs ko dhundhna, unhe laana, fir wapas se kaam samjhana, ye sab na jaane kitna samay le sakta tha. Uske baad taste ka change hona. Harr chef apne dhang se khaana banata hai. Jo yaha pehle se bana rahe hai, unke jaisa agla aadmi nahi bana sakta.
Prestige ki yahi toh pehchaan thi. Uska taste!! Agar chefs badal jayenge, toh woh pehle jaisa taste kaise maintain kar payenge? Signature dishes ka kya hoga jo sirf head chef hi banaaya karta hai?
Inn vichaaro ne Bhumika ko ek chakravyuh me fasa diya. Agar Shweta yaha hoti toh woh ab tak chidh ke Narang ko bhaga chuki hoti. Usme itna tolerance nahi. Magar, Bhumika ke andar tolerance level kahi zyada tha.
Bhumika (frowns) : Ye aap theek nahi kar rahe. Baahar log apne khaane ka wait kar rahe hai. Ye saari baatein aap baad me bhi toh kar sakte the na? Abhi karne ki kya zaroorat thi?
Narang : Iska faisla abhi hi hoga. Baad me taalne wala kaam mera nahi. Kyu bhai log?
"Haan haan!! Faisla abhi hoga."
Bhumika : A-Aap sab-!!! Kya zara bhi pyaar nahi aapko iss hotel se? Itne saalo tak aap sab ne kaam kiya hai. Kya kabhi aapko kisi cheez ki taqleef hone di hai mene ya Mom ne?
Uski iss baat par kuch chefs apna sarr jhuka ke khade ho gaye. Baat satya thi. Aaj tak unhe kabhi bhi kisi bhi cheez ki taqleef nahi hui thi. Pagaar hamesha samay par mil jaaya karti thi. Tyohaaro me unhe bonus bhi milta tha. Kahi se bhi koi taqleef nahi thi.
Fir woh sab kyu apni itni shaleen maalkin ke khilaaf khade ho uthe? Jawaab tha ~ Narang!
Jisne bhadka ke unhe apne side kar liya tha. Thode se behkaave me aane ke baad woh ye tak bhul gaye ki isi hotel se unka ghar chalta tha. Aaj woh usi ko laat maar rahe the. Kahi na kahi unn sab ke andar ek glaani ki bhaavna zaroor jaagi. Magar ab woh itna aage badh chuke the. Ab peeche nahi hatt sakte the.
Narang : Hume bas saaf saaf jawab de do!
Bhumika duwidha me fas gayi. Kya kare woh?
Saath khadi Arohi bhi clueless thi. Kya karti woh bechari.
Arohi : Kaash Veer yaha hota-!!!
Uske muh se ye nikla hi tha ki-
"What's happening here???"
Ek jaani pehchaani awaaz uske kaano me padi.
'Huh???'
Bhumika aur Arohi dono ne mud ke dekha toh paaya ki Veer unke saamne khada hua tha. Woh abhi abhi kitchen me aaya tha. Baahar ke staff ne use andar jaane ke liye kaha tha.
Arohi : Veeeeeer!!!
Woh aage badh unke nazdeek aaya aur Bhumika ne use sab kuch samjha diya. Pehle toh Veer hassa aur uske baad usne Narang ko dekha,
Veer : Toh tumhe jawaab chahiye? Hmm?
Narang ne upar se neeche tak Veer ko dekha. Iss ladke ko usne pehle kabhi nahi dekha tha. Jis tarah se Bhumika aur Arohi uske saath pesh aa rahi thi, Narang ne ek anumaan laga liya ki ye ladka unka koi rishtedar hi tha. Apna guroor wapas se chehre par jhalkaate hue woh bola,
Narang : Hmph! Tum jawaab doge? Kherr! Jo bhi de, mujhe farq nahi padta. Bas, haan ya naa me bata do. Payment hamari badha rahe ho ya nahi?
Veer (smiles) : Theek hai! Toh mein deta hu tumhe jawaab!
Narang : Hmm!
Veer : GET LOST!
Narang : Huh???
Bhumika : Ahhh??? V-Veeer???
Narang ko jaise apne kaano par yakeen nahi hua. Bhumika ka bhi yahi haal tha. Woh iss waqt kaise bhi kar ke unhe rokna chaahti thi. Baahar sabhi khaane ka wait kar rahe the. Aise me ye kaisa nirnay tha ki Narang ko bhaga diya jaaye?
Narang : K-Kya kaha tumne?
Veer : Mene kaha, dafa ho jao!
Narang : Haah! Haha! Hahahahahaha!
Bhumika : Veer! Tum-!?
Narang : Mujhe toh laga tha thodi bohut aqal se kaam loge. Par- Hahahahaha!!!
Veer (smiles) : Aqal se hi kaam liya hai. Aur ye aqal pehle hi dikha deni chaahiye thi.
Narang : *frowns*
Veer : How much you pay him monthly?
Bhumika : Th-That's-!!! 60,000!!!
Veer (baffled) : 60 hazaar rupaye?? Aur pehle kitna pay karti thi?
Bhumika : 45,000!
Veer : 15,000 rupaye ka izaafa!! Mujhe nahi lagta ki aas paas ke kisi bhi hotel me kisi Head Chef ki itni payment hogi.
Narang : Ladke!! Tujhe pata hi kya hai? Hmph!!! Baahar jaake dekh zara. Casa Belle waale toh mujhe khushi khushi le lenge.
Bhumika : N-Nahi!!!
Bhumika ka darr jayaz tha.
Casa Belle!!!
Haal hi me khuli ek nayi hotel jo unke hotel ke paas hi thi. Ek 5 star hotel. Bhumika ka sapna tha ki woh apni iss hotel ko 5 star hotel me tabdeel kare. Duniya ki ekdum premium hotels me uski hotel ka naam jaana jaaye. Aur isi sapne ke liye woh jee tod mehnat kiya karti thi.
Lekin, Casa Belle ke aane ke baad se hi hotel ke liye mushqile badh rahi thi. Zyada crowd abhi bhi Prestige ke paas hi tha. Magar, kya hoga agar Narang jaise chefs uske paas se chale jaaye aur jaa ke Casa Belle me kaam karne lage?
Hotel toh band hone ki kagaar pe aa jayega.
Veer bas muskuraya. Aur woh khushi khushi bola,
Veer : Darwaze khule hai! Jaa sakte ho!
Narang : T-Tum-!!!
Bhumika : Veer! Nahi! Hum aisa nahi kar sakte. Jald se jald inn sab ko rokna hoga. Baahar shor badhta jaa raha hai. Th-Theek hai mein payment badhaane ke liye-
Veer : Hargiz nahi! Ek rupaya bhi badhaya nahi jayega. Payment aapke kaam ke hisaab se ekdum sahi hai. Balki, zyada hi hai. 50,000 is a very good amount for a head chef. Not to mention ki tum kisi 5 star hotel ke chef nahi ho. Aur na hi abhi hamari hotel ek fully 5 star hotel me tabdeel hui hai.
Narang : Toh theek hai-!!! Bhaad me jao tum! Madam ji! Ab sambhal lena aap. Baad me mere paas gidgidate hue mat aana.
Bhumika : V-Veeeeer!!! Ye kya kiya tumne? P-Please! Hum unhe jaane nahi de sakte.
Narang : Hmph! Chalo Bhai log!
Usne kaha, magar pehle ke muqaable ab sirf aadhe hi log Narang ke saath aaye. Baaki aadhe peeche hoke khade ho gaye. Veer ki baato ne jaise unhe abhaas dilaya tha ki unhe jo mil raha tha woh pehle se kahi zyada tha.
Narang : Hmm? Tum sab!!! Yahi rehne ka irada hai kya? Bhulo nahi ki aise mauke baar baar nahi aate. Pagaar badhaane ka iss se accha mauka nahi milega. Ye ghatiya hotel chhodho aur chalo mere saath. Mein tum sab ko 20% zyada pagaar dilwaunga pehle ke muqaable.
Chef 1 : 20% zyada?
Narang : Haan! Chalo ab! Narang ki zubaan hai.
Chef 1 : L-Lekin-!! Nahi! Nahi hum yahi theek hai.
Narang : Tum!!! Mene kaha chalo mere saath.
Uska haath jabran thaam Narang ne jab use ghaseetna chaaha toh ek mazboot haath ne uski kalaayi ko jakad liya.
Veer : Woh kahi nahi jayega!
Narang : Ladke-!!! Haath chhodh!! Woh toh madam ke yaha itne saal kaam kiya hai isliye haath nahi uthaya tujh par. Tu hota kaun hai mujhe rokne waala? Madam ke naate mein kuch kar nahi raha warna-
Veer : Warna!? Shukr manao ki unhi madam ke chalte tum ab tak sahi salamat ho. Itne saal kaam kiya hai isliye zyada kuch kiya nahi mene warna-
Narang : Hoshiyar samajhta hai apne aap ko? Saale teri toh-
*Swish*
Wahi par rakha ek bada sa chamcha utha ke Narang ne Veer ke sarr pe chalaya par woh late tha. Ya yu kahe ki Veer uss se hazaro guna tezz tha.
Agle hi shan Narang ke haath se woh chamcha gaayab hua,
LIMBO!!!
*Crack*
*Swoosh*
Narang ko uske peeche se shirt pakad ke Veer ne uska sarr turant hi-
*Plop*
Paani se bhare ganj me de maara.
*Blurgh!!* *Gulp* *glrggh*
Bhumika : Nooooo!!! You both-!!!! Stop it Please!!!
Paani se uske chehre ko nikaal Veer use darwaze ki orr laaya aur-
*BAMMMMMM*
Darwaza zorr se khula aur ek udta hua insaan kuch feet dur jaa ke gira.
Baahar baithi tamaam janta ekdum se shaant ho gayi. Jo shikaayte woh pehle kar rahe the. Maar dhaad dekh sabke sab ekdum se dubak ke baith gaye.
Narang : L-Ladkeeee-!!! Madar-
*Bammmmmmm*
"Ugggghhh!!!"
Veer ne use pakda aur use aise le gaya jaise maano woh kooda fekne jaa raha tha.
Veer : Security!!!
Guard 1 : H-Haan!
Veer : Aaj se ye chef nahi hai. Hamari hotel me kaam toh kya, shaqal bhi nahi dikhni chahiye iski.
[What a strong performance. That's what I like about you~ A strong boy... needs a strong 'Mommy'! Doesn't he?]
'Shut up!'
[Fufufu~ Sooner or later! You'll be mine! ♡]
Narang ke saath jitne bhi the, woh Veer ko ladta dekh ke hi sehem gaye.
Veer : Aur tum sab!? Jaana nahi hai?
"N-Nahi Sir! H-Hum kaam karne taiyaar hai. Hum-"
Veer : Out!!!
"???"
Veer : Iss se pehle ki yahi haal tum sab ka hoye. Mere bina kahe hi nikal jao!
Na chaahte hue bhi unn sabhi ko waha se nikalna pada. Unhone apne hi perr par kulhadi maar li thi. Acchi bhali naukri haath se gawa di.
Ab woh sab Narang ke hi bharose the. Idhar Bhumika ki jaan jaise halak me aa gayi. Veer ne sabke saamne hi Head Chef ko nikaal diya? Ab kya hoga?
Bhumika : Khatam! Sab khatam! Veer! Kyu kiya aisa??? Ab k-kaise-!?
Arohi : Trust him!
Bhumika : Huh?
Arohi : He must have thought of something.
Bhumika : Wh-What?
Narang aur uski toli ko bhagaane ke baad Veer apne customers ke saamne aaya aur usne apni baat rakhi,
Veer : Jo kuch bhi hua. Uss sab ke liye mein aapse maafi maangta hu. Darasal, hamare Head Chef ki zyaadti badh gayi thi. Aur unhe ayeena dikhana zaroori tha. Mujhe aap sab 10 minute dijiye. 10 minute ke andar andar orders lagne shuru ho jayenge. Mein waada karta hu, aisa swaad aapne kahi nahi chakha hoga.
Uske bolte hi aapsi me logo ki khusur pusur chaalu ho gayi.
"Theek hai lao Bhai! Ab itna late toh ho hi gaya hai."
"H-Haan! 10 minute dekh sakte hai."
Manzoori milne ke baad Veer muskuraate hue kitchen me gaya. Peeche peeche Bhumika aur Arohi bhi thi. Nandini wahi baahar reh ke logo ko sambhaale rahi.
Aur idhar andar aate hi,
*Ding*
[Intimidating Presence has been equipped.]
Veer : Tum sab!!! Apna apna naam batao! Jaldi!
Bache hue chefs se jaise hi Veer ne buland awaaz me pucha sab uske aage sehem gaye. Andar se hi ek respect waali bhaavna na jaane kyu jaagrit hone lagi.
Apna apna naam unn sabhi ne bataya. Bhumika ko chinta khaaye jaa rahi thi.
Bhumika : Veer ab kya hoga? Hum kaise manage karenge? Ye nahi hona chahiye tha.
Veer : Bhumika dii!
Bhumika : ???
Veer (smiles) : Woh Narang pehle se hi naukri chhodhne ke chakkar me tha.
Bhumika : Wh-What??
Veer : Kya aapne gaur nahi kiya? Kyu woh baar baar Casa Belle hotel ka zikr kar raha tha?
Bhumika : Woh-
Veer (smiles) : Casa Belle waale logo ne pehle se hi use ghoos de di hai shayad. Narang toh bas bahana dhoondh raha tha yaha se nikalne ka.
Bhumika : Ahh!!?
Veer : Isliye woh aisi betuki farmayish rakh raha tha. Use laga tha ki aap use naukri se nikaal dogi. Aur uska kaam bann jayega.
Bhumika : Y-Ye!?
Veer (smiles) : But you were persistent. Aap use jaane nahi de rahi thi. Uske liye aur mushqil ho raha tha. And that's why he opted for violence.
Bhumika : Ahhhnn! Y-Ye baat thi!?
Veer : I fulfilled his wish. Ab shayad hi woh kabhi accha khaana bana paaye. *smiles*
Bhumika : Hmm?
Veer (smiles) : Looks like we've got a new competition in the market. Anyways! Aap sab kuch mujh par chhodh dijiye.
Bhumika : B-But how-!?
Veer (screams) : CHEFS!!!!
"Y-Yesss sirrr!!!"
Veer ne apni shirt utaar apni kamar par baandhi. Haath dhoye aur woh taiyaar tha.
Veer : Get ready!!! Bhumika dii! Arohi dii! Order numbers dijiye. Pehle woh bataiye jaha orders adhura pohucha hai. Uske baad woh orders jaha bohut derr se khaana nahi pohucha. And lastly newest ones.
Bhumika : G-Got it!!
Arohi : Veer! Table number 7!!! Umm! 1 Dal fry, 1 Veg pulav, and 1 butter paneer masala!!
Veer : Got it!!!
Uske haath itni raftaar se chal rahe the ki baaki chefs apni aankhein faade dekhte reh gaye. Kahi koi choonk nahi, sab kuch perfection se ho raha tha.
Bhumika ne jab uski speed dekhi toh uska muh khula ka khula reh gaya. Speed hona koi bohut badi baat nahi thi.
Par full accuracy ke saath speed hona, ye bilkul naamumkin jaisa tha. Kahi koi cheez gir nahi rahi thi. Tel ki maatra, pan ko saute karne ka dhang, ingredients ki maatra sab kuch jaise ekdum perfectly daala jaa raha tha.
Veer : Vijayyy!!!
Vijay : Y-Yes Chef!?
Veer : Tomato soup!!! Table number 9 ke liye. Abhi!!!
Vijay : Y-Yes Chef!!!
Veer : Toasted bread piece daalna mat bhulna!!
Vijay : Y-Yes!!
Veer : Coriander ki garnishing!!!
Vijay (shouts) : Yessssss Chef!!!
Veer : Rohitttt!!!!
Rohit : H-Haan??
Veer : Same table!!! Dry Manchurian!!
Rohit : Y-Yess Chef!!!
*Clang* *Schling*
Bartano ki khat-pat awaazo ke saath aur chaaku chhuriya ki dhaar ke sang Veer ne kitchen me ek alag hi aura bhar diya.
Baaki chefs Veer ki skills dekh, uss se order lete hue itne motivate ho gaye ki woh harsho-ullas ke saath khaana banaane me jutt gaye. Asli swaad tabhi aata hai jab ek chef dil se khushi khushi uss khaane ko banaaye. Aaj wahi ho raha tha.
Bhumika ne aisa drishya pehle kabhi nahi dekha tha. Veer ko kaam karta dekh, uski dhadkane tezz ho uthi. Sach kehte hai. Ek mard sabse zyada attractive tab hi lagta hai jab woh apne kaam me leen ho.
Woh yaha uss Narang ki payment badhaane ke chakkar me thi. Aur yaha Veer ne ek jhalak me uske shadiyantra ko pakad liya tha.
Bhumika : I have so much yet to learn...! M-Mein use samajh nahi saki theek se.
Arohi (smiles) : That's okay! As long as you keep faith in him!
Bhumika (smiles) : I see now! Thank you! Arohi!
Arohi (smiles) : Mmm~
Baahar jaise jaise dishes aati gayi, logo ke mann se woh doubt khatam ho gaya. Jaise jaise unhone khaane ka swaad chakha sab ke sab chakit reh gaye. Baat sahi thi. Aaj tak unn sabhi ne iss tarah ka swaad nahi chakha tha. Dishes toh same hi thi. Lekin, ek naya zaayka tha usme. Kuch extra tha. Jo woh bata nahi paa rahe the.
Akhir kaar ye silsila khatam hua. Raat ke 10:30 baj rahe the. Rush samaapt ho chuka tha. Veer ne aaj se pehle kabhi itna khaana nahi banaaya tha.
Garmi ke chalte woh poora paseene se lath-path tha. Hotel ke baahar closed ka sign lag chuka tha.
Dining area me hi woh ek kursi par AC ke neeche baith gaya.
Uske bagal se Arohi thi toh wahi dusri orr Bhumika.
Arohi ne ek towel lete hue uska paseena pochha.
Veer (smiles) : Thank you!
Arohi : Thank you!
Veer : Hmm?
Arohi : For working this hard!
Bhumika ne achanak se uski baah ko apne haatho ke ird gird liya.
Veer : ???
Bhumika : Veer! Aaj sab ne khaane ki itni zyaada tareef ki hai ki mein tumhe bata nahi sakti. Aisa pehle kabhi nahi hua.
Veer : Haha!
Bhumika : No doubt woh Narang accha khana banaata tha. Lekin, kabhi bhi public aise react nahi karti thi. Jo kuch bhi tamasha aaj hua, uss se public darr bhi gayi thi. Isliye mene unhe Sunday ka special offer ka coupon bhi diya hai. Umeed hai ye swaad chakhne ke baad woh zaroor ayenge.
Veer : Of course!
Bhumika (frowns) : L-Lekin-! Ye toh sirf aaj ke liye tha. Aaj tumne madad kar di. Aage kya hoga?
Veer : Don't worry! Aapke liye mene naya head chef bhi dhoondh liya hai.
Bhumika : Kya??? Kaun hai woh?
Veer (smiles) : You'll know soon!
Woh aankhein band thodi derr khud ko durust karne laga jab,
*Puch*
'Huh?'
Do narm honth uske gaal par lag gaye. Bhumika ne sharmaate hue uske gaal ko chooma.
Bhumika (blushes) : Th-Thank you so much!!!
Veer : Ahem! D-Don't mention it!
***
Yaha toh sab nipat chuka tha. Magar inn beete ghante Sonali kaha thi?
Food truck se nikalne ke baad woh Kaushik ke sang pradarshani dekhne gayi thi. Khayaal toh use Veer ka hi aa raha tha.
Kintu, Kaushik ki lagataar baato ko sunn aur pradarshani me mauj masti kar uska dhyaan Veer par se thoda hatt gaya.
Derr raat ho rahi thi. Usne aaj khoob enjoy kiya tha. Ab lautne ka samay tha.
Kaushik ka dost bhi jaa chuka tha. Ab woh khud hi gaadi chala raha tha.
Kaushik : Kya iss nacheez ke saath sundari jii ko thoda bohut bhi accha laga?
Sonali : Hahaha! Tumhari baatein betuki hai. Aur mujh par line maarna band kar do.
Kaushik : Uui maa! Pakda gaya kya mein?
Sonali : Kab ke!!! Chalo! Aur mujhe jaldi se wapas se truck par chhodh do. Prachi ab aur late nahi ruk payegi.
Kaushik : Bilkul! Bilkul!
Sonali ko raaste pata nahi the. Magar kuch na kuch mod yaad zaroor the.
Jab Kaushik ne truck dusri disha me moda toh uski bauhe kass uthi.
Sonali : Arre? Y-Ye raasta nahi hai. Woh waala mod tha.
Kaushik : Jaane dijiye na! Aaj yaha se chalte hai. Kaafi saari khubsoorat jagaahe hai yaha pe. Aapko dikhata hu.
Sonali : N-Nahi! Raat bohut ho gayi hai. Aur mujhe ab jaana hai.
Kaushik : Maaniye toh baat-!!
Sonali : Mene kaha na-!!! Ye-! Ye kya kar rahe ho tum??
Kaushik : Nahi!! A-Aaj aapko meri baat maanami padegi.
Woh uski orr mudte hue bola. Uski muskaan me iss baar hawas ke iraade jhalak rahe the.
Sonali : !!???

Adbhut, Lajwaab or bejod update bhai....Update - 152 ~ Quarrel and Stay
Ab tak...
Nidhi : I said repeat after me...! Say- "I"
Veer : I...
Nidhi : want...
Veer : want...
Nidhi : Marks!!!!
Veer (smiles) : You!!!
Nidhi : Ahnn!!!?
Nidhi ke chehre par jo haya ki parat chadhi, toh woh seedha uske kaano tak fel gayi.
Ab aage...
Nidhi jaldbazi me bhaagi bhaagi fir rahi thi. Nigaahein neeche kar woh apne hi students se bina nazre milaaye baahar ko nikalti jaa rahi thi. Bechari ki dhadkane behad tez thi. Aur, uske theek peeche Veer apne jeb me haath daal muskurate hue uska peecha kar raha tha.
Aisa lag raha tha maano ek ladki apne aashiq se sharma ke bhaag rahi ho. Apni chaal ko tez kar Veer uske bagal se aaya aur dheere se budbuda ke bola taaki sirf Nidhi ko hi sunaayi de sake.
Veer : Agar aap aise hi sharmati rahi, toh kaise chalega ma'am?
Magar, Nidhi toh jaise jawab dene ke mood me hi nahi thi. Woh toh jald se jald yaha se bas nikalna chaahti thi.
Veer : Ma'am?
Nidhi : Veer! Paper khatam ho gaya hai. Next paper ki taiyaari karo. A-Aur mujhe bhi ghar jaana hai. Aise follow mat karo.
Veer : Kya mein aap ko chorr du?
Nidhi : Nahi!! M-Mein apni gaadi se aayi hu. Chali jaungi!
Veer : Kya waqai aap nahi chaahti mein aap ko chorru? Jaise hum pehle jaaya karte the?
Nidhi ke qadam tham gaye. Pal bhar ke liye use wahi puraani yaadein yaad aayi. Jab Veer uske ghar raha karta tha. Jab woh Veer ke sang uske peeche baith ke aati jaati thi. Jab woh dono lautate waqt shopping kiya karte the.
Puraane lamho ko yaad kar, Nidhi ke dil me ek garmahat paida hui. Kintu, agle shan hi-
Use ye bhi gyaat hua ki Veer uska ghar chorr ke ab apne ghar jaa chuka tha. Ye sab kuch temporary hi tha. Permanent nahi!
Woh ek gehri saans lete hue punah aage badhi. Veer uske peeche peeche hi chal diya.
Veer : Meri Juhi kaisi hai?
'Meri Juhi' sunte hi Nidhi chalte chalte hi peeche mud use dekhi,
Nidhi : Tumhari Juhi?
Ye toh bilkul aisa lag raha tha jaise ek pati apne tour se aane ke baad apni patni se apni laadli ke liye puch raha ho.
Veer (smiles) : Kya Juhi meri nahi? Mein uska maamu nahi?
Nidhi : Oh!!
Veer (smiles) : Aap ko kya laga?
Nidhi : K-Kuch nahi!
Woh fir aage badh gayi. Agal bagal se nikalte students Veer ko dekh use rokne ki koshish karte. Woh abhi khabro me jo chal raha tha. Unhe naa ka ishara kar Veer apni pyaari ma'am ke peeche chalta raha.
Nidhi jaise hi parking par apni scooty ke paas pohuchi, Veer uske bagal se aake khada ho gaya,
Veer : Mein bike se aaya hu. Chalengi nahi mere saath?
Nidhi (glances) : Veer!!!
Veer : Hmm?
Nidhi : Iss se pehle ki mein sab ke saamne tumse oonchi awaaz me kuch kahu, aur tumhari beizzati ho! Tum chale jao abhi ke abhi.
Veer : Kya aap aisa karengi mere saath?
Nidhi : Haan!
Veer : Aap badal gayi ho ma'am. Subah toh mujhe laga tha aap wesi ki wesi hi ho par...! You have changed so much.
Ek dard bhari soorat liye Veer ne Nidhi ko jab dekha toh Nidhi ko bhi jaise laga ki woh kuch zyada hi bol gayi.
Nidhi : N-Nahi! Mein-
Lekin, woh agle hi pal bhadak bhi uthi. Woh badal gayi hai? Toh Veer ka kya?
Nidhi : Mein badal gayi hu? Apne aap ko dekho Veer. Kaha hai woh purana Veer? Woh jo hasna seekh gaya tha, logo se ghulne milne laga tha, apni padhayi par dhyaan dene laga tha. Kaha hai woh Veer?
Veer : !!!?
Nidhi : Ab dekho tumhe? Call karke mujhe batana padta hai ki exams shuru hone waale hai. Harr din gayab rehte ho. Tumhari koi khabar nahi rehti. Kahi Las Vegas jaate ho toh kahi Paris. Iss baar toh seedhe news me hi aa gaye. Apne aas paas dekho Veer.
Veer : ???
Nidhi : Kya ye kahi se bhi normal hai? Kya baaki students aisi life jee rahe hai? Success ki seedhiyan ek ek karke chadhi jaati hai Veer. Tum kyu seedha akhiri seedhi par chadhne ki koshish kar rahe ho?
Veer : ...
Nidhi : Ek- Ek normal insaan ki tarah nahi jee sakte kya tum?
Aaj Nidhi ne apne mann ki baat anjaane me rakh hi di. Veer ki jo baat use niraash karti thi woh yahi thi. Veer jab uske ghar rehta tha toh woh ek normal insaan ki tarah ghul mil ke rehta tha. Magar, achanak se uska itna aage badhna, safalta itni jaldi haasil karna. Khaas kar tab jab uski ham-umr ke log ek sadharan zindagi hi vyateet kar rahe the.
Kahi na kahi, Nidhi ko ye chintit karne laga tha. Aur, jaise hi Veer uske ghar se gaya. Woh bichhadne ki anubhooti Nidhi ke zehen me bas gayi. Veer se ye judayi hi thi jo uss se sahi nahi jaa rahi thi. Magar, ye baat woh bhala kaha jaanti thi.
Nidhi : A-Aur kehte ho mein badal gayi hu???
Iss baar Nidhi ke chehre par dard tha. Usne apni bhadas baahar nikal di thi. Lekin, woh ye bhul gayi thi ki woh abhi bhi college ke parking area me hi khadi thi.
Jab aas paas se khusur pusur hone ki awaaz aayi, tab Nidhi ko hosh aaya. Waha maujood sabhi students unn dono ko ghoor ke dekh, apni apni charcha kar rahe the.
Iss baat ka abhaas hote hi ki woh kya kar baithi, Nidhi ki aankhein achambhav ke maare fel gayi. Itni badi bhul kaise ho gayi uss se? Itni besudh kaise ho gayi woh?
Woh hadbada ke apni scooty par baithi ki itne me hi-
"Bhaiyaaaaaaaaa!!!!"
Ek awaaz unn dono ke peeche se aayi.
Nidhi : ???
Veer : Huh??
Dono jab mude toh dekha ki Kavya thi jo daud ke unn dono ki taraf aa rahi thi.
Veer : Kavya!!!
Woh aayi aur seedhe Veer se chipak gayi. Kavya ke sang sang Kritika aur Arohi bhi aa rahi thi. Peeche se aake woh bhi unke saath khadi ho gayi. Arohi toh pehle hi graduate ho chuki thi. Woh sirf Kavya ko pick karne aayi thi. Kyuki, ab dono wapas se apne ghar jaa chuki thi.
Kavya : Kaisa gaya paper?
Veer : Well! Dekhte hai kya hota hai. Result hi batayega!
Veer muskuraya aur Nidhi ko ek jhalak usne dekha.
Veer : Tumhara kaisa gaya?
Kavya : Arre baba! Mera maths thode hi tha. Maths chorr ke mujhe sab acche se aata hai.
Veer : Toh Nidhi ma'am se kyu nahi tution le leti?
Kavya (smiles) : Ah! Nidhi aunty??? Aap bhi ho yaha? Hellooo~
Nidhi : K-Kavya! Hum college me hai! Please, ma'am kaho!
Kavya : Ohhh! Sorry!
Arohi : Good afternoon ma'am!!
Nidhi : Arohi! *nods* Good afternoon!
Kritika : Hello Veer bhaiya! Hello ma'am!
Nidhi (nods) : Mmm~
Veer (smiles) : Hello~ Hello Kritika! Kaash Karan bhi iss college me hota toh badhiya hota. Right?
Kritika (blushes) : W-Woh....!!!!
Yaha ye sabhi aapas me baatein kar rahe the toh wahi parking area se hi kuch duri par canteen side chair par ek ladka baith unhe bhaiyankar gusse se ghoor raha tha.
"Saala khud ko celebrity samajh raha hai. Aaj chun chun ke badla lunga. Ek baar me saale ki hekdi nikaal dunga. Iski saari popularity ko aaj iski gaand me ghusa dunga."
Woh daant meeste hue bola. Uske bagal se baithe uske dost ne pehle use dekha fir dur khade Veer ko aur fir vyakul hote hue kaha,
Ladka : Bhai Ajay! Dekh yaar woh ab famous ho gaya hai. Aisa na ho ki hum kuch galat salat uske saath kare aur maamla police tak pohuch jaaye. Abhi toh woh news me bhi aa raha hai. Ye sahi time nahi hai.
Woh thoda dara hua tha. Magar, Ajay nahi!
Jii haan! Ye wahi tha. Wahi Ajay jisne sabse pehle Veer ko college ke baahar sunsaan sadak par maara tha. Baad me Veer ne use chutiya bana ke uss se badla liya tha. Tab se hi Ajay underground tha.
Zyada matlab nahi rakhta tha kisi se. Uska bhi graduation ho chuka tha kyuki woh Veer se ek saal senior jo tha. Usne inn beeto mahino me galat sangati me rehna shuru kar diya tha. Aur sheher ki jaani maani ek gang me shaamil bhi ho chuka tha. Ab uske andar itna confidence tha ki woh wajandari patakte hue Veer ko asaani se dhool chata sakta tha. Saath hi saare college ko ye dam deke bata bhi sakta tha ki uski pehchaan kaha kaha hai.
Apna raub maarne aaya tha aaj woh yaha. Jab use pata chala ki exams shuru hone waale hai. Toh woh samajh gaya ki Veer zaroor aane waala tha. Iss se behtar mauka aur koi ho hi nahi sakta tha.
Veer se badla lena uska sabse bada maqsad tha abhi. Veer haal hi me famous hua tha. Iss se behtar samay kya hi ho sakta tha Veer ki popularity ki dhajjiya udaane ke liye?
Tamaam janta ke saamne aaj woh Veer ki image mitti me milana chaahta tha.
Ajay : Bhosdike! Jacky Bhai saath hai mere. Akkhi Mumbai me unki gang ka naam chalta hai. Police ka matter? Jacky Bhai ka police station me aana jaana laga hi rehta hai. Samjha kya?
Ladka : Par yaar...!
Ajay : Gaandu teri itni hi phat rahi hai toh tu beta nikal le. Agli baar se mujhe muh na dikhaiyo ki 'Ajay bhai aaj vilayti wali pila do.' Behanchod teri gaand maar lunga tab mein.
Ladka : Arey be! Tum toh naraaz ho gaye. Wese ye...! Jacky Bhai koi bade gunde hai kya?
Ajay : Gunde? Abey gang hai unki behanchod poori. Mumbai me unki gang ke naam se hi darrta hai aadmi. Underworld ke kaamo me zyada rehti hai gang isliye harr aam aadmi ko zyada kuch pata nahi hai gang me baare me. Chutiye kabhi underworld ki duniya me jhaank ke dekh. Tab pata chalega.
Ladka : Aisa kya!?
Ajay : Aaj iss Veer ki gaand maar lunga mein. Aaj isko pata lagega ki duniya kitni badi hai. Gaandu ne socha bhi nahi hoga ki meri pehchaan itni dur ki niklegi.
Usne phone nikaalte hue apne Jacky bhai ko call kiya, toh pata chala ki Jacky bhai apne 30-40 aadmi leke college bas pohuch hi chuke the.
Ladka : Abey security waale toh nahi rok lenge na unhe?
Ajay : Tu baccha hai kya be gaandu? Abey kattaa rakha rehta hai unke jeb me. Samjha? Aaye din toh gun badalte rehte hai. Woh do jhaatu se college ke guards unhe rokenge? Tera dimaag toh thikaane par hai?
Ladka : Bas kuch gadbad na ho jaaye.
Ye dono baatein kar rahe the ki tabhi college ki building se ek khubsoorat ladki baahar nikli. Lehraate hue ghane kaale baal jo uski peeth tak aa rahe the.
Uske peeche peeche uska chota bhai bhi aa raha tha.
Ajay ki nazar jaise hi uss ladki par padi, woh apni chair se uth khada hua.
Ajay : P-Pragya-!!!
Ladka : Yahi hai kya bhabhi jii?
Ajay : H-Haan!
Ladka : Kya baat hai bhai! Jao jao! Baat karo!
Ajay (smiles) : Aise thodi!!! Lagta hai apne chote bhai ko lene aayi hai.
Ladka : College me aa gaya launda fir bhi didi ke saath aata hai?
Ajay : Woh uska cousin hai chutiye. Jo uske ghar ruka hua hai. Yahi se padhayi kar raha hai woh. Isliye wahi drop karne aur lene aati hai.
Ladka : Waah! Behan ho toh aisi.
Ajay : Aaj Veer toh gaya! Pragya jaan jayegi ki meri kya wazandari hai!
Ladka : Sahi hai!
Veer ke peeth peeche kya ho raha tha, bina iski jankari liye woh mast apni baato me laga hua tha jab-
*Vroooom* *Vroooom*
Bikes ko race dete hue ek ek karke ek se badh ke ek bikes college campus me ghusne lagi.
Baahar ke guards ke paas hi 10 aadmi theher gaye the. Bechaare guards logo ki gaand phat gayi thi itne aadmiyo ko ek saath aata dekh ke. Upar se harr ek ke haath me kahi hockey thi toh kahi koi laathi. Toh kisi ke haath me bat.
Woh bhaybheet hote hue wahi jam ke reh gaye. Students se leke sabhi teachers jo ghar jaane ki taiyaari kar rahe the woh sab ghabra uthe.
Ye din dahaade kaun ghus raha tha college me? Launde gale me gang scarf baandhe, kuch kaano me baaliya taange, aankho par kaala chashma pehne sab ke sab tashan me achanak hi andar aa dhamke.
"Kya samaane hai be yaha toh! Hahahaha!!!"
"Aaye haaye!! College ki chhoriyaan! Ek se ek hai!! Bhai dakhila kara lu kya firse mein?"
"Chutiye tujhe lega bhi kaun?"
"Hahahahaha!!"
Unki aapas ki hasi aur oonchi awaazein poore parking area me fel gayi.
*Whistles*
Ek ne seeti maari toh ladkiya darr ke maare peeche ko hatt gayi. Pragya jo baahar aayi thi, uski bauhe nazara dekhte hi chinta me sikud gayi. Launde lapadi sabhi bikes se campus me ghus rahe the aur canteen ki orr jaa rahe the.
Toh wahi idhar Nidhi aur baaki sab ka dhyaan bhi unn gang members ne apni harqato se kheench liya.
Kavya : Ye log kaun hai? Aur andar kaise aa gaye?
Kritika : Sh-Shayad kisi ki ladaayi hui hai.
Kavya : Ladaayi?
Kritika : Hmm! Zaroor kisi ne inke kisi aadmi ko maara peeta hoga. Pakke se kuch kaha suni hui hogi. Aur ab ye log usko maarne aaye hai.
Kavya : Ahnn!!!? I-Itne saare?
Nidhi (frowns) : Baccho! Tum sab udhar mat jaana. Peeche aa jao!
Arohi : Kavya!! Veer! Peeche aa jao!
Kavya : Bhaiya!!?
Veer (smiles) : Hmm?
Kavya : Kya inn sab ko yaha se hum bhaga nahi sakte? Aise me- aise me toh woh ladka bechara marr hi jayega. Itne log agar use maarenge toh-
Veer : Oh! Meri choti behan ko chinta ho rahi hai?
Kavya : Hogi hi na! Ye sab galat ho raha hai.
Veer uski baat sunn bas muskuraya. Usne apna haath uthaate hue uske sarr par rakha.
Veer : Don't worry! Mein hu na!!!
Kavya : Ahn! O-Ok!
Pata nahi kyu, par Veer ka haath apne sarr par padte hi Kavya ke andar se jaise saara darr baahar nikal gaya. Bhale hi uski hairstyle bigad rahi thi, lekin fir bhi use Veer ka haath rakhna behad pasand aa raha tha. Ek aatm-vishvaas jaaga usme. Uske bade bhaiya uske saath the. Jab woh saath the toh darrna kaisa?
Use Bhavna ke gaav ki yaad aa gayi jaha Veer ne Harikiran ke aadmiyo se ladaayi kari thi. Kavya woh sab dekhi hui thi. Toh fir aaj darr kaise sakti thi woh?
Veer ki shirt ki sleeve thaam woh uske theek peeche khadi ho gayi.
Udhar saare laundo me ek ladka tha. Kareeban, 28-29 saal ka. Jo unn sab se alag hi prateet ho raha tha. Usko dekh ke hi lag raha tha ki wahi inn saare laundo ka leader tha.
Woh jab canteen me ghusa toh sabhi students dur hone lage aur use dekhne lage. Sab ye jaan gaye the ki aaj kisi na kisi ki shaamat aane waali hai.
Toh wahi udhar baat jab Principal tak pohuchi toh usne seedha police ko phone kar diya. Aur, woh kuch aur teachers athwa baaki staff ko leke campus me baahar aaya.
Students ki suraksha karna bhi uski ek zimmedari thi. Jab tak student uski building ki premises me hai tab tak ye uski jawabdari banti thi ki woh sahi salamat rahe.
Parantu, uski gaand tab fati jab baahar aake usne ladko ki sankhya dekhi. Inse bhidna jhagadna uske bas ki baat nahi thi. Woh bas dua karne laga ki koi bhi maar peet hone se pehle kisi tarah bas police yaha pohuch jaaye.
Idhar woh ladka yaani ki Jacky bhai apni mehngi bike se utar canteen me aaya aur ek chair par baithate hue apne dono perr table par joote sahet rakh diya.
Jacky : Kyu be? Kya naam bataya tha tune apna?
Ajay hadbadaate hue aage aaya,
Ajay : Jacky bhai! A-Ajay!!
Jacky : Abhay?
Ajay : Ajay! Ajay!
Jacky : Achhaa!!! Theek hai theek hai!
Ajay : Jacky bhai! Mein...! Woh aapke underground wali jagah par aaya tha na-
Jacky : Umm hmm!!! Kya kaha tha mene? Jagah ka zikr nahi hona chahiye! Samjha na?
Ajay : S-Sorry Jacky bhai! Mein new join kiya hu abhi.
Jacky ne Ajay ko punah dekha aur fir apne ek pantar ki orr dekha pucha,
Jacky : Kyu be? Tune liya ise?
Uska pantar jhukte hue uske kaan ki orr badha aur ahista se bola,
"Ye zidd kar raha tha. Isko 3 mahine tak rageda hai mene. Isne harr woh kaam kiya hai jo ise diya gaya tha. Chori kar ke laaya, hafta wasool ke laaya, firauti bhi dene gaya tha ek ko. Keh raha tha bas gang me rakh lo. Aur woh naya wala drugs ka maal yahi laaya tha."
Jacky ne firse upar se neeche Ajay ko dekha.
Jacky : Kyu be? Tujhe gang ki zaroorat kya pad gayi? Kisne chut maar li teri?
"Hahahahaha!!!!"
Uske ye puchte hi uske saare chele log hasne lage. Gussa toh Ajay ko behad aaya. Magar, uski gaand me itna gooda nahi tha ki woh palat ke kuch jawab de sake. Farzi muskaan liye woh bola,
Ajay : Jacky Bhai! Kaun nahi chaahega ki unke peeche aap jaise wazandar logo ka haath ho.
Jacky : Shaana banta hai?
Ajay : N-Nahi Jacky bhai! Mein bas aapki gang me aana chaahta tha.
Jacky : Ye ant-sant, aaltu-faaltu kaam hum log karte nahi hai samjha na? Woh toh teri kismat acchi thi jo hum yahi se nikal rahe the. Isiliye aa gaye. Saath hi mujhe dekhna tha ki naya maal laane waala launda hai kaun asal me.
Ajay : B-Bilkul! Bas, ye last time hi hai Jacky bhai!
Jacky : Bol! Kiski gaand maarni hai. Aaj saala haatho me khujli bhi bohut ho rahi hai.
Ajay : Thank you Jacky bhai! Aap bohut acche-
Jacky : Gaand chaatne ka mauka dunga tujhe baad me. Pehle bata kaun hai woh jisko dhona hai? Aaj toh woh kunkuna moot ke jayega yaha se.
Ajay : W-Woh raha. Waha khada hai!
Jacky adab se uthate hue aage badha. Uske peeche peeche uske pantar bhi chal diye.
Campus ke beecho beech aate hue Ajay Jacky ke peeche chal kar Pragya ko dekha. Pragya ne bhi use dekha.
Pragya : A-Ajay??
Ajay : Pragya!! Kuch nahi bas chota sa matter hua tha. Ek ladka mujh par apni dadagiri jata raha tha. Haha! Use uski jagah dikhani hai bas.
Pragya ke maathe par lakeere chha gayi. Usne apne chote bhai ko peeche kar liya. Ajay soch raha tha ki apni wazandari patakte hue uska rutba ladkiyo me badh jayega. Khaas kar Pragya ke saamne. Kya khaak badhne waala tha. Bhala Pragya jaisi ladki maar peet ko kaise badhaava de sakti thi?
Idhar Kavya ne jab ladko ko apni orr aate dekha toh woh ghabra uthi,
Kavya : Bh-Bhaiya!!! Woh sab toh idhar hi aa rahe hai.
Nidhi tension me aa gayi. Woh scooty se utar Veer ke bagal se aake khadi ho gayi. Teacher hone ke naate apne students ki dekh bhaal karna uska farz tha.
Jaise hi launde unke qareeb pohuche, Nidhi, Kavya, Kritika aur Arohi ki soorat aur jism ko dekh ke hi unke muh se laar tapakne lagi.
Unme se ek ne Nidhi ko dekha,
"Uffff! Jacky bhai!! Saali kya gori doodhiya kamar h-- ugggghhhhhhh!!!"
Abhi usne itna bola hi tha ki agle hi shan woh hawa me tha. Uske gale ko ek mazboot pakad ne jakda hua tha. Aur woh hawa me jhool raha tha.
"Ugggghh! Urrrghh! Ch-chorrr!! Uaghh!"
Veer kisi hawa ke jhonke ki tarah aage badha aur usne ek jhatke me apne ek haath se uss ladke ko gale se pakad ke utha liya.
Jaise hi ye hua, tamaam logo ki aankhein hairat me fel gayi. Veer ne use aise feka jaise woh kisi nirjeev tutre samaan ko kabaad me fek raha ho.
*Dhadaam*
Jacky ki nigaahein jaise hi Veer par padi, woh wahi jamm ke reh gaya.
Uske mann me anek vichaar aane lage,
'Isko- Isko toh kahi dekhela hai. Kaha dekhela tha? Huhhhh!!!!?'
Fir jaise woh kuch yaad karne laga. Par jab tak woh apne vichaaro me laga tha, tab tak uske chele bhala kaha shaant rehne waale the.
Ek ke girte hi woh Veer par toot pade,
"Abeeeyyyy! Aeeee!!!!! Maaro saale ko!!!"
Peeche se Ajay muskuraate hue sab kuch dekh raha tha. Soch raha tha ki ab Veer gaya.
"Haaaaaaaaaarrrgghh!!!!!"
Dherr saare ladke Veer ko jhapatne aur use maarne daude.
Kavya : Bhaiyaaaaaaaaa!!!!
Kritika : Oh no!!!
Nidhi : V-Veeeeerr!!
Arohi darr ke maare apne aas paas dekhne lagi. Principal ko dekh woh students se chhipte hue unki orr bhaagi,
Arohi : S-Sir!!! Police ko call kijiye!!!
Principal : Beta, mene kar diya hai. Woh bas aa hi rahe hai.
Arohi : Unse kahiye ki woh late hue toh gadbad ho jayegi.
Principal (teachers ko dekhte hue) : Hume students ko bachana chahiye. Kya kehte hai aap sab?
Teacher 1 : Sir! Bachana toh chaahte hai hum sab bhi. Magar...! Mujhe nahi lagta hum unke khilaaf tik payenge. Hathiyaar liye hai woh sab. Aur...! Ye unka matter hai. Police aayegi toh woh dekh legi. Mujhe students ko padhana hai. Apni taangein nahi tudwani.
Principal : *sighs*
Arohi uss teacher ko gusse se dekhi aur turant hi daud ke wapas chali gayi.
Use mehsoos ho raha tha ki kahi Veer ko kuch ho na jaaye. Lekin, jab tak woh waapas aayi, tab tak use waha woh kuch bhi dekhne ko nahi mila jo woh soch rahi thi.
Uska muh khula ka khula reh gaya jab usne dekha ki-
Veer atyant hi khatarnak raftaar me aage badh unn ladko ke jhund me hi ghus gaya. Jo drishya waha ghat raha tha. Ye sirf ek movie me hi insaan ne dekha tha. Kabhi live nahi. Par aaj woh sabhi ye live dekh rahe the.
Ek ek karke Jacky ke chele bas idhar udhar girte jaa rahe the aur dard se karaah rahe the. Veer ko inn namuno se bhidne ke liye Beowulf ki zaroorat bhi nahi thi. Advanced martial arts skill ne hi gaand maar ke rakh di thi unki. Woh toh jaise enjoy kar raha tha.
*Baaaaammmmmm*
Ek aur unme se udte hue dur jaa ke gira. Aur Veer ne uske haatho se hockey stick chhina ke apne haath me leli.
Usne zameen par woh stick itni zorr se giraayi ki uske chithde udd gaye. Jacky ke bache kuche chele iss baar 2 qadam peeche ho gaye.
Aur, Jacky ko bhi jaise yaad aa gaya. Uska badan thar-thara ke kaanpne laga. Idhar Ajay bhauchakka sa apne muh faade sab dekh raha tha. Veer itna strong kaise ho gaya bhala?
Veer ne Jacky ko punah dekha,
Veer (smiles) : Lagta hai...! Tumhare boss se milna padega.
Usne ye kaha hi tha ki Jacky turant aage badh haath jod ke uske saamne daudte hue aaya,
Jacky : S-Sirrr!! Mujhe nahi pata ki aap yaha ho. Maaf kar dena. Ye sab meri galti hai. Maaf kar dena. Mein toh uss naye ladke ke chakkar me yaha aa gaya. Warna mein toh aata hi nahi. U-Usko abhi batata hu.
Ajay : Huh?
Ajay ekdum confused saamne ghatit ho rahe drishya ko dekha. Itne me Jacky chalte hue uski orr aaya aur,
*Chataaaaaaakkk*
Poore area me ek zordaar lapaade ki goonj fel gayi. Aur fir Jacky garaj utha,
Jacky : MADARCHOD!!!! BHOSAD PAPPU!!!! TERI MAA KI CHOOT BEHANCHOD!!! CHUTIYE SAALE!!!
*Chataaaaaaakkkkk*
Ajay : Unghh!?? J-Jacky Bhai?
*Chataaaaaaakkkkk*
Jacky : BHOSDIKEEE!!! LAVDE!!! KUTTE KI GAAND!! LAPARJHANDU SAALE!!! KUCH PATA BHI HAI TUJHE YA NAHI??? MADARCHOD---!!!
Udhar bechari Kavya ka itni gaaliya sunn ke hi dimaag kaam karne band kar diya.
Kavya : Ah! K-Kutte ki kya!?
Kritika (blushes) : I-I don't know!
Ajay apna rutba badhaane aaya tha. Badh gaya uska rutba. Saare logo ke saamne woh rehepte khaa raha tha aur upar se gandi se gandi gaaliya bhi. Iss se behtar timing kya hi ho sakti thi.
Veer ne toh pehle hi Jacky ko check kar liya tha. Isliye use kuch darr hi nahi tha.
Acche se sutaayi karne ke baad, Jacky Ajay ko kheechte hue Veer ki taraf laaya aur uske perro par gira diya.
Jacky : A-Aage se aisa kuch nahi hoga Sir. P-Pakka!! Aai shapath! Y-Ye sab iske kaaran hua hai.
Ajay besudh sa Veer ke perro par dala hua tha. Aur udhar se Pragya sab kuch dekh rahi thi. Uska chota bhai excited hoke bol pada,
"Wow didi!!! Aapke college me ye sab bhi hota hai? Kya fight thi!! Mene aaj tak aisi fight nahi dekhi apni life me."
Pragya apne bhai ki baat ko sunn bohut tezz bhaagte hue Veer ke paas pohuchi,
Pragya (pants) : Excuse me!! *pants*
Veer (smiles) : Catch your breath first!
Pragya (blushes) : Y-Yes!!
Veer : So?
Pragya : Kya please...! T-Tum ise chodh sakte ho? H-He...! He was my friend.
Ajay jo sab kuch sunn raha tha, uski aankhon se ye sunte hi aansu behne lage.
He 'WAS' my friend. Ye vaakya sab darsha raha tha. Matlab Pragya ab use apna dost nahi maanti thi. Khaas kar iss harqat ke baad. Lekin, fir bhi woh uske liye ek antim baar aayi.
Veer : Aur kyu jaane du bhala mein ise? Your friendship means nothing to me! Right?
Pragya : Th-That's...!
Kabhi isi ladki ke peeche Veer ne Ajay se maar khaayi thi. Aur aaj dekho. Aaj wahi ladki uske saamne request kar rahi thi usi ladke ko bachane ke liye. Veer muskuraya aur usne Pragya ko dekh kaha,
Veer : There was a time when I used to look at you...!
Pragya : !!!?
Veer : Aur uss chakkar me iss Ajay ne mujhe college ke baahar le jaake apne dosto ke saath milke peeta tha.
Pragya : Whaaaattt?
Veer : Then, I took the revenge. I did the same to him. Lekin, akele...!
Pragya : A-Ajay ne-!!? Ye sab kiya tha?
Veer : Hmm! Aur isliye, lagta hai isne gang join ki. Mujhe firse sabak sikhane ke liye. But unfortunately, it back fired.
Pragya ko ab Ajay ko dekh ke hi ghin aa rahi thi. Aise ladke ki dost thi woh? Aise ladke ki?
Veer ne Jacky ko dekha,
Veer : Ahinda se, aisi harqate karte tum sab paaye gaye. Toh pata hai na kya hoga?
Jacky : B-Bilkul nahi Sir! Balki, aaj se saare college ki meri gang rakhwali karegi. Koi bhi galat kaam hone nahi degi.
Veer : Hmm!
Ajay ka dost jo canteen me tha, woh daudte hue aaya aur phati ke maare Ajay ko uthaate hue side le jaane laga.
Pragya : Thank you...! For sparing him..!
Veer ne bas haath hila ke ek gesture diya. Ki usne mind nahi kiya. Pragya waha se wapas laut gayi.
Veer : Aur tum sab! Iss se pehle ki police wagarah aaye, yaha se nikal jao. Aur haan! Jaane se pehle Principal aur teachers se maafi maang ke jaana. Aur woh kaha gaya jo ma'am ko dekh bhaddi baatein kar raha tha?
Jacky ne apne ek aadmi ko pakda aur Veer ko thama diya.
Jacky : Y-Ye hai! Aap maariye ise. Kameene ko pata lagna chahiye ki baatein karne ka kya tareeqa hota hai.
Veer use kheechte hue laaya aur Nidhi ke perro par gira diya.
Veer : Kuch kehna hai na tumhe?
Ladka : Mujhe maaf kardo!!! *sniff* Ab se aisa kabhi nahi karunga...! Madam jii! *sniff* Mujhe maaf kar do...! *sniff* Mein andha tha jo kuch dekh nahi paaya. Ab se nahi karunga.
Nidhi do qadam peeche ko hui aur usne Veer ko dekh bas halke se haami bhari. Veer ne wapas se uss ladke ko uthaya aur Jacky ko thama diya.
Veer : Leave now!!
Jacky apni gang ke saath hadbada ke bhaaga aur jaate jaate usne sabhi teachers aur Principal se bhi maafi maangi. Sabhi apni apni bikes par sawaar college se baahar nikal gaye.
Jacky ke chehre par abhi bhi paseena tha. Uske ek chele ne raaste me uss se pucha,
Ladka : Bhai! A-Aapne uss ladke ke saamne haath kyu jode? Aapko aisa karte pehli baar dekh raha hu.
Jacky : Abey! Madarchodo!! Kyuki-
Ladka : Kyuki?
Jacky (frowns) : Kyuki woh mere boss ke boss ka boss tha...!!!!
Ladka : Huhhhh??!
Balhaar!!! Balhaar ka right hand man tha ~ Teeka!!!
Aur Teeka hi Jacky ka boss tha. Jacky ko sab yaad aa gaya tha. Veer hi toh tha jo ek baar Balhaar ke paas aaya tha. Woh yaad aate hi uski gaand sikud ke reh gayi thi.
Teeka Jacky ka boss tha. Aur Balhaar Teeka ka boss. Magar-!!!
Veer Balhaar ke bhi upar tha. Woh Balhaar ka boss tha. Jab Mumbai ka itna bada Gunda ek ladke ke neeche kaam kare, iska matlab kya tha?
Par inn bechaaro ko kya pata tha ki Balhaar ko uska singhaasan hi Veer ne diya tha. Aatish aur Slogan ko thikaane lagaane ke baad hi toh Balhaar ko Mumbai ka Don kehlaane ka haq mil paaya tha.
Jacky : Suno! Tum sab!! Unke jitne bhi parivaar waale dost sanghi log hai. Sabke naam note kar lo aur tasveere yaad kar lo. Agli baar se koi bhi unme se kahi dikhe. Bas, zameen par lot jaana aur sewa karne lagna. Aur agar zindagi pyaari nahi toh jo marzi aaye woh karo.
Ladka (gulps) : J-Jii boss!

Idhar college me police pohuch chuki thi. Par tab tak sab kuch settle ho chuka tha. Veer police aur Principal ke sang araam se baato me laga hua tha.
Magar, do log the jinki dhadkane behad tez thi. Pehli toh thi Nidhi swayam. Aur dusri thi ~ Kavya!!!
Peeche se Veer ki aakriti dekh Nidhi ka dil zorro se dhadak raha tha. Ye ladko waale kaam nahi the. Ye mardo waale kaam the. Jis tarah usne saamne khade hoke ek bhi ladke ko unki orr aane nahi diya. Ye sab kiska prateek tha? Mardaangi ka! Himmat ka! Bahaduri ka!
Jis tarah uske baare me gandi soch rakhne waale uss ladko ko Veer ne uske qadmo par giraya. Aur baad me usne maafi maangi. Kya Rajat ne uske liye aisa kabhi kiya tha? Balki, woh toh khud darinda tha.
Toh wahi dusri orr, Kavya jise action behad pasand tha, uss bechari ki dhadkane bhi train ki raftaar ke maafiq tez chal rahi thi. Shuru se hi use movies ki maar dhaad pasand thi. Lekin, ye sab tabhi pasand aata tha jab ek hero dushmano se ladd ke jeet raha ho. Aaj usne ye dusri baar apni zindagi me dekha tha.
Pehli baar Veer ko Harikiran ke aadmiyo se bhidte dekha tha. Aur ab ye...!
Use pata hi nahi chala kab uske perr apne aap aage badh gaye aur woh jaake Veer se peeche se lipat gayi.
Veer : Hmm? Kya hua?
Parantu, Kavya toh kuch bhi nahi bolna chaahti thi. Uski saansein behad tezz thi. Veer ki kuch derr pehle ki baat use yaad aa gayi.
'Don't worry! Mein hu na!'
Matlab woh vaakya sach tha. Agar uske bhaiya saath hai toh kabhi koi dikkat nahi aa sakti. Kavya ko ab ye vishvaas ho chuka tha.
Kavya ko leke woh wapas Nidhi ki orr aaya.
Veer : Kya ab bhi aap mere saath nahi jaana chaahengi?
Iss baar Nidhi ka virodh poori tarah se khatam ho gaya.
Nidhi : M-Magar ye scooty-!?
Kritika : Ohh no!!! Meri bus chooth gayi!
Veer (smiles) : Ye lo! Ho gaya jugaad! Kritika?
Kritika : Hmm?
Veer : Ma'am ki scooty leke unke ghar tak chal dogi? Waha se mein tumhe drop kar dunga.
Kritika : Ohh! Why not? Thank you Bhaiya!
Veer : Don't mention it!
Kavya : Ye kya bhaiya? Mene toh socha aaj aap ke saath lapak ke bike pe baith jaungi aur aapke ghar chal dungi. Fir wahi so jaungi. Par aapne-
Veer : Kavya! Seedhe seedhe batao! Agar ek taraf Bhabhi aur tumhari Badi Tai ji ke haath ka bana lazeez khana rakha ho aur ek taraf mein rahu. Toh tum pehle kiske paas jaogi?
Kavya : Nooooo~ Ye toh bohut tough question hai. Ahem!! Surely, I love you!!!B-But-! P-Pehle woh kha lungi. Lekin, f-fir aapke paas aa jaungi.
*Pffffftttt~*
Nidhi ne jab ye suna toh woh apni hasi ko rok na paayi. Ye dono Bhai behan bade hi vichitr the.
Veer : See! Mujhe pata hi tha-! Then, Arohi dii ke saath kyu nahi chali jaati? Fir jitna thoosna hai tum thoos sakti ho.
Kavya : Use thoosna nahi kehteeee!!!! Hmph~ Use etiquettes ke saath properly khaana kehte hai. Samjhe na aap?
Veer : Right! Right! Two sandwiches in both hands. Etiquettes! Right!!! *nods* Hmm! Hmm!
Kavya (blushes) : Nohooo~ Kisne kaha aapko ye batane ke liye.
Veer : Go now! Wese bhi mein ghar par nahi jaunga. Aur kuch din ab Nidhi ma'am ke ghar par hi rahunga.
Usne jaise hi ye bola, Nidhi ko aisa laga usne sahi se suna nahi. Par jab firse gaur kiya toh uski aankhein aashcharya me fel gayi aur shaant dhadkane fir tezz ho gayi. Kya kaha usne? Woh uske ghar rahega? Matlab firse wahi sab-!!?
Woh Veer ko peeche se kasi hui bauho se dekhi. Seena zorro se upar neeche ho raha tha.
Kavya : What? Aap Nidhi ma'am ke yaha? Kyu?
Veer : Kuch zaroori kaam hai. Baad me bataunga! Jao ab!
Kavya : Hmph ~ Fine! Dii! Chalo! Bhabhi ke haath ka mast dinner karenge aaj.
Woh koodate phaandte hue Arohi ki scooty ki orr nikal gayi aur idhar Arohi bhi jaane ki taiyaari karne lagi.
Arohi : Th-Then-! I'll take my leave as well!
Veer (nods) : Hmm!
Arohi : Take care Veer! Good day! Ma'am!
Nidhi (smiles) : Mmm!
Sab kuch shaant hote hi, Veer Nidhi aur Kritika ke sang uske ghar ki orr chal diya. Aaj punaah uski bike par uske peeche baith Nidhi ka dil bilkul bhi shaant nahi tha.
Ajeeb si ek bechaini ho rahi thi use.
Kritika ko uske ghar drop karne ke baad jab Veer Nidhi ke Ghar aaya. Toh abhi woh darwaaze par hi tha jab uske mann me-
[My my~ Finally!!!]
Ek behad hi uttejit kar dene waali awaaz uske andar goonji.
'Huh!!??'
[Hmm? Such polluted air. So weak... Hmm!!! Ohhh!??? Oh my!!! Am I going to serve you? What should I call you? Master? Or.... My little sugar baby??]
'What!??'
