"Shayad uska maksad." Dushyant ne kuch sochte huye gambheerta se kaha_____"Sirf tumhe darana tha." "Kya matlab.???" Vidhi ke maathe par shikan ubhar aayi, fir boli_____"Wo bhala mujhe kyo darana chaahta tha.? Aakhir uski mujhse kya dushmani ho sakti hai.?" "Uski dushmani tumse nahi hai vidhi." Dushyant ne gahri saans lete huye kaha______"Balki ab shayad mujhse bhi ho gayi hai."
Ab Aage,,,,,,
"Ye tum kya kah rahe ho dushyant.?" Vidhi ke chehre par jaise aashcharya naach utha, boli_____"Tumse bhi uski dushmani ho gayi hai ka kya matlab hai.?"
"Badi ajeeb story hai vidhi." Dushyant ne gahri saans lete huye kaha_____"Is wakt us story ko sunane ka time nahi hai. Raat zyada ho gayi hai aur tumhe bhi ab araam se so jana chahiye. Ab kisi baat se darne ya ghabrane ki zarurat nahi hai tumhe. Tum apne kamre me ja kar araam se so jaao. Main yahi par hu aur us kale kapde wale ki nigraani karuga."
"Mujhe kahi nahi jana." Vidhi ne jaise zid karte huye kaha_____"Aur na hi ab mujhe neend aayegi. Tum mujhe bataao ki us kale kapde wale se tumhari dushmani kaise ho gayi hai aur wo yaha kyo aaya tha.? Mujhe sab kuch sach sach bataao ki baat kya hai.?"
"Tum bhi had karti ho yaar." Dushyant ne bechaini se pahlu badalte huye kaha______"Bhala ye bhi koi wakt hai baate karne ka.? Tum apne kamre me jaao, ham kal morning me is bare me baat karenge."
"Had main nahi balki tum kar rahe ho dushyant." Vidhi ne dushyant ki taraf ektak dekhte huye kaha_____"Bhala ab mujhe neend kaise aa jayegi jab ki abhi kuch der pahle main us kale kapde wale ki vajah se dari huyi thi.? Upar se ab tum ye kah rahe ho ki uski dushmani tumse bhi ho gayi hai. Ab jab tak main sab kuch jaan nahi lugi to main sochti rahugi is sabke bare me. Us soorat me main kaise sukoon ke sath so paaugi.?"
Vidhi ki in baato par dushyant ne uski taraf dekha. Is wakt wo kisi bachchi ki tarah masoom nazar aa rahi thi use. Dushyant ke andar use dekhte huye ajeeb si jhurjhuri hone lagi to usne uski taraf se apni nazre hataayi aur fir gahri saans lete huye bola_____"Achha thik hai. Main tumhe sab kuch batata hu magar ek shart par."
"Ab ye shart kyo.?" Vidhi ne aankhe failaayi.
"Yaar shart to sun lo." Dushyant ne kaha.
"Ok fine." Vidhi ne kaha______"Bolo kya shart hai.?"
"Tumhare hath ki bani chaay pini hai." Dushyant ne muskurate huye kaha______"Tumhare hi jaisi sweet si chaay. Ufff kitni achhi chaay banati ho tum. Dil karta hai ki tum bana ke deti jaao aur main bas pita jaau."
"Fir to nahi pi sakte tum." Vidhi ne do took lahje se kaha_____"Kyo ki chaay banane ka mera bilkul bhi mood nahi hai. Haan agar tumhe pini hi hai to khud bana ke pi lo. Kitchen kidhar hai ye to tum jaante hi ho."
"Main ye to jaanta hu." Dushyant ne ajeeb bhaav se kaha_____"Ki ladkiyo ko ladko ka dil todne ka bahut zyada shauk hota hai magar mere sath bhi ek din aisa hoga ye nahi jaanta tha."
"Apne bare ne bhi sochna tha na." Vidhi ne kaha_____"By the way thanks for comming."
"Tum to yaar sach me mera dil todne par tuli huyi ho." Dushyant ko jaise jhatka sa laga_____"Kya tum bhool gayi ho ki ham dono aapas me dost hain aur dost kisi baat ke liye dost ko thanks ya sorry nahi bolte. Dusri baat ye bhi hai ki main ek police wala hu to tumhe aisi situation se bachana mera farz hi tha."
"Ohh i see." Vidhi ne kaha______"Main to bhool hi gayi thi ki ham dost hain. Achha hua tumne yaad dila diya."
"Itna rudely kaise baat kar sakti ho tum.?" Dushyant hairaan pareshan sa bola______"Us wakt to bada dar ke maare mere seene se chipak gayi thi tum aur ab do minute me hi rang badal liya tumne."
"Mera itna sa naaz nakhra bhi nahi jhel sakte.?" Vidhi ne roothe huye andaaz se kaha_____"To fir kis baat ke dost bane ho tum. Bas third class ashiq ki tarah hawaayi baate hi karte ho tum."
"Kyaaa.???" Dushyant buri tarah chaunka_____"Main....mera matlab hai ki wo sab tum nakhra kar rahi thi.???? Aur..ye kya kaha tumne......third class ashiq jaise ka kya matlab hai tumhara.?"
"Itne buddhu to nahi lagte tum." Vidhi ne sofe se uthte huye kaha______"Jo itni si baat na samjhe hoge aur agar nahi samjhe ho to police wale kaise ban gaye tum.? Khair chhodo, abhi laati hu tumhare liye chaay warna mujhe puri ummid hai ki rone lag jaaoge tum."
Vidhi ne badi ada se kahi thi ye baat aur fir usne dushyant ki kisi baat ka intzaar nahi kiya balki fauran hi kitchen ki taraf chali gayi thi. Jabki uski baat sun kar pahle to dushyant ke hotho par gahri muskaan ubhar aayi fir ekdam se uske chehre par socho ke bhaav ubhar aaye the.
Uske zahen me naqaab wala halchal machaye ja raha tha. Vidhi ke ghar me ye kaand kar ke usne uske zahen me kayi saare sawaal khade kar diye the. Uski dushmani to avinash se thi aur avinash ko dushyant ne apne sath rakh liya aur use safe kar diya. Is hisaab se dushyant bhi uska dushman hi ban gaya magar iske liye naqaab wale ne vidhi ke ghar me ghusne ka kaand kyo kiya.? Aakhir aisa karne ke peeche uski kya vajah thi.? Kya aisa karne ke peeche sirf ye vajah thi ki wo baukhlaya hua hai ya fir ye ki wo avinash tak pahuchne ka koi raasta banana chaahta hai. Magar sawaal hai ki aisa kar ke wo kaise avinash tak pahuchne ka raasta bana lega.?
"Akele akele sochne se kuch nahi hoga." Dushyant ye sab soch hi raha tha ki vidhi ki awaaz se chaunka. Jabki chaay ka cup dushyant ko pakda kar vidhi sofe par uske bagal me hi baithte huye boli______"Balki kuch na kuch tab hoga jab tum kisi aur ki bhi buddhi ya salaah loge."
"Ohh thanks for your advice." Dushyant ne muskurate huye kaha aur fir chaay ka ek ghoont lene ke baad kaha______"So sweet, bilkul tumhari tarah. Kaash tum bhi chaay hoti."
"Agar main chaay hoti." Vidhi ne kaha_____"To yakeen maano tumhe pine ke liye wo kabhi nahi milti."
"Aree lekin kyo.?" Dushyant ne hairaani se kaha_____"Aisa kyo kah rahi ho tum.?"
"Har kyo ka jawaab ho ye zaruri to nahi." Vidhi ne kaha_____"Ab ye baate chhodo aur ye bataao ki wo kale kapdo wala tumhara bhi dushman kaise ho gaya.? Kya chakkar hai ye.?"
Dushyant samajh chuka tha ki use vidhi se sab kuch batana hi padega warna wo baar baar usse puchhti hi rahegi aur uske na batane par wo usse naraaz bhi ho sakti thi jo ki dushyant kisi keemat par nahi chaahta tha ki wo usse naraaz ho jaye. Is liye usne pahle tasalli se chaay pi aur fir vidhi se kaha ki wo uske kamre me hi batayega. Asal me is wakt wo dring room me hi the aur dushyant ko andesha tha ki naqaab wala kahi ghar ke aas paas hi hoga aur wo khidki se uski baate sun sakta tha.
"Mere kamre me kyo.?" Vidhi ne aankhe failaate huye dushyant se kaha______"Kahi tum mujhe akela dekh kar...?"
"Itna gira hua insaan nahi hu main." Dushyant ne vidhi ki aankho me dekhte huye thodi naraazgi se kaha______"Agar tumhe aisa lagta hai to fir tumne mujhe phone kar ke yaha bulaya hi kyo.?"
"Dekha.? tum to mera zara sa bhi nakhra nahi jhel pa rahe ho." Vidhi ne bura sa muh banaya aur sofe se uth kar khadi ho gayi, fir boli______"Ab baithe hi rahoge ya chaloge bhi.? Buddhu kahi ke."
"Tum bhi badi ajeeb ho yaar." Dushyant uski baat sun kar sofe se uthte hue bola______"Aur waisi hi ajeeb hain tumhari baate."
"Isi liye to puch rahi thi." Vidhi ne seedhiyo ki taraf chalte huye kaha______"Ki tumhe police wala kisne bana diya.? Itne dino me main samajh chuki hu ki dhele bhar ka bhi sense nahi hai tumhare paas."
"Tum meri dosti ka najayaz faayda utha rahi ho vidhi." Dushyant ne uske peechhe chalte huye kaha______"Aur ye hargiz bhi achhi baat nahi hai."
"Achha ek baat bataao." Vidhi ne achanak palat kar dushyant ki taraf dekhte huye kaha_____"Us wakt jab main dar ke mare tumhare seene se lipat gayi thi to tumne bhi mujhe apni baaho me bhar kar apne se kyo chhupka liya tha.? Us wakt to main kuch bhi samajhne ki condition me nahi thi magar ab lagta hai ki tumne us wakt mauke par chauka maara tha, aur agar aisa hai to bahut gande ho tum."
"Hey bhagwan.!" Dushyant ko laga ki wo apne sir ke baal noch le, fir bola_____"Pata nahi kya kya soch leti ho tum.? Yaar tum aisa kaise soch sakti ho mere bare me.?"
"Dekha.?" Vidhi ne tapaak se kaha_____"Tum mera zara sa bhi nakhra nahi jhel pa rahe. Kaise dost ho tum. Buddhu kahi ke. Ab chalo...kya yahi khade rahoge.?"
Dushyant ne is baar kuch bhi bolna sahi nahi samjha. Use laga ki agar usne is bare me kuch bola to vidhi fir se aisi waisi koi baat kahegi aur fir last me yahi kahegi ki tum mera zara sa bhi nakhra nahi jhel pa rahe....buddhu kahi ke. Dushyant ko samajh nahi aa raha tha ki vidhi aisa bol kar usse chaahti kya thi.?
Kuch hi der me wo dono vidhi ke kamre me pahuch gaye. Vidhi ka kamra uski tarah hi khubsurat tha. Dushyant pahli baar vidhi ke kamre me aaya tha warna itne dino me wo ground floor ke dring room aur kitchen tak hi gaya tha. Ya fir washroom gaya tha. Dushyant ne kamre ko achhi tarah dekha aur fir vidhi ki taraf dekh kar kuch kahne hi wala tha ki use yaad aaya ki uske bolne par kahi vidhi fir se waisi baate na karne lage. Is liye chup hi raha.
"Kaha tha na maine." Vidhi ne uski taraf dekhte huye kaha_____"Ki dhele bhar ka bhi sense nahi hai tumhare paas. Itna bhi sense nahi hai ki jab kisi ladki ke sath uske kamre me jaao to uske kamre ki khubsurti ko dekh kar kam se kam tareef me do lafz bhi bol do. Buddhu kahi ke....!"
"Isi liye nahi bola." Dushyant ne is tarah kaha jaise dukhi ho gaya ho, bola______"Kyo ki tum meri baat par baad me mujhe buddhu kah deti. Had hai yaar itni bejjati aaj tak kisi ne nahi ki meri jitni tumne ki hai. Mard hu is liye dahaade maar kar ro bhi nahi sakta."
"Rona bhi nahi." Vidhi ne muskurate huye kaha_____"Kyo ki main tumhare aanshu nahi ponchhne wali."
"Ab agar meri khichaayi kar li ho tumne." Dushyant ne bed ke paas hi rakhe ek single sofe par baithte huye kaha_____"To koi aur baat kare.? Ya fir tumne soch liya hai ki aaj saari raat tum mere dhele bhar ke sense ko le kar hi tippadi karti rahogi.?"
"Isi tarah apne dad ko satati thi main." Vidhi ne ekdam se dukhi ho ke kaha______"Aur wo zara bhi meri baato se tang nahi hote the balki unko mera is tarah se satana achha lagta tha."
"Ohh i'm so sorry vidhi." Dushyant ko ekdam se jaise samajh aaya ki vidhi uske sath ab tak aisi baate kyo kar rahi thi, wo sofe se uth kar vidhi ke paas gaya aur fir usne vidhi ki aankho me ubhar aaye aanshuo ko ponchhte huye kaha______"Mujhe koi idea nahi tha ki tum wo sab baate kis liye kah rahi thi mujhse."
"Tum na buddhu hi thik ho." Vidhi ne halki muskaan ke sath kaha______"Zyada smart banoge to shaatir samjhe jaaoge aur mauke pe chauka maarna to koi tumse seekhe."
"Kya matlab.??" Dushyant chaunka_____"Ab kya kiya maine.?"
"Sofe se uth kar mere paas aaye." Vidhi ne usi muskaan ke sath kaha______"Aur fir mere aanshu ponchhne lage. Waah ji waah matlab is bahane tumne mujhe chhua. To ho gaya na mauke pe chauka maarna."
"My god." Dushyant ko jaise shock laga aur fir do kadam peeche hat'te huye bola______"Tum itni si baat ko chauka maarna kahti ho.? Ok fine and i'm sorry. Ab se kabhi tumhe touch nahi karuga."
"Dekha na.?" Vidhi ne is baar haste huye kaha_____"Tum zara bhi mera nakhra nahi jhel pa rahe. Kaise dost ho tum. Buddhu kahi ke."
Pure kamre me vidhi ki hasi goonj rahi thi. Aisa lag raha tha jaise kisi mandir me kayi saari ghantiya ek sath bajne lagi ho. Dushyant thaga sa vidhi ko dekhe ja raha tha. Uske motiyo jaise daant kamre me faili tube light ki roshni me chamak rahe the. Dushyant ko mahsoos hua ki wo kisi sammohan me doobta ja raha hai. Usne jaldi se apne aapko samhala aur fir ja kar waapas sofe par baith gaya. Udhar vidhi abhi bhi hase ja rahi thi. Fir jaise use khayaal aaya aur usne apni hasi ko viraam diya. Hasne se uska doodh ki tarah gora chehra surkh pad gaya tha aur aankhe sajal ho uthi thi. Dushyant ko samajh nahi aa raha tha ki vidhi kaisi ladki hai. Pal me tola pal me masha wali baat thi usme.
<>•<>•<>
"Kya naraaz ho gaye mujhse.?" Dushyant ko ekdam se shaant aur chup baithe dekh vidhi ne badi masumiyat se puchha tha.
"Kya main yaha." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Cigarette pi sakta hu.?"
"Agar main ye kahu." Vidhi ne uski aankho me jaise jhaankte huye kaha_____"Ki cigarette bahut hi buri cheez hoti hai aur ise nahi pina chahiye to kya tum aaj se peena chhod doge.?"
"Koshish karuga." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Magar filhaal iski shakht zarurat hai mujhe. So if you don't mind....?"
"Thik hai." Vidhi ne kaha_____"lekin meri salaah yahi hai ki cigarette buri cheez hai aur isse jitni jaldi ho sake tauba kar lo to behtar hoga. Khair ab to bataao ki us nakaab wale ka kya kissa hai.?"
Vidhi ke puchhne par dushyant ne use avinash ke maamle wala saara kissa shuru se le kar ant tak vistaar se suna diya. Saari baate sunne ke baad vidhi soch me pad gayi thi. Jabki dushyant ne use soch me dooba dekh ek nayi cigarette jala li.
"To tumhare anusaar." Vidhi ne gahri saans lete huye dushyant se kaha_____"Wo naqaab wala mujhe darane aaya tha.? Usne ye sab is maksad se kiya ki wo mere zariye tumhe ye ahsaas kara sake ki tum uske raaste ka roda na bano.?"
"Bilkul." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Yaha aa kar tumhe is tarah se darane ke peeche uska yahi maksad hai. Warna khud socho ki tumse uski kya dushmani ho sakti hai.?"
"To ab kya karoge tum.?" Vidhi ne kaha_____"Mere kahne ka matlab hai ki kya tum uski is harkat se khud bhi dar jaaoge aur uske raaste se hat jaaoge.?"
"Sawaal hi paida nahi hota vidhi." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Usne apni is harkat se bhale hi mujhe ahsaas kara diya ho magar usne khud apne bare me bhi ye zaahir karwa diya hai ki wo apne maksad ko pura karne ke liye kitna fadfada raha hai. Mujhe is baat ki ummid nahi thi ki wo is had tak bhi chala jayega ki wo apne maksad ko pura karne ke chakkar me tumhe bhi torget kar sakta hai. Khair chhodo is sab ko aur haan fikar karne ki zarurat nahi hai. Ab chalo so jaao tum."
"Thik hai." Vidhi ne kaha______"Tum bhi so jaao yahi par."
"Kya.???" Dushyant vidhi ki yahi so jane ki baat par chaunka tha, fir bola______"Yahi par mere so jane se tumhe koi problem nahi hogi kya.? Agar raat me main...!"
"Kaha tha na." Vidhi ne kaha______"Dhele bhar ka bhi sense nahi hai tumhare paas. Yahi so jane ki baat se mera matlab hai ki mere ghar me hi so jaao naa ki mere kamre me. Ab itni raat ko apne ghar to jaaoge nahi. Buddhu kahi ke....huh."
Vidhi ki is baat par dushyant dekhta rah gaya use. Uske man me yahi khayaal ubhra ki ek baar fir se popat ho gaya uska. Jabki udhar ye sab kahne ke sath hi vidhi apne bed par let gayi thi aur dusri taraf ko karwat le liya tha usne. Dushyant is baat se bekhabar tha ki dusri taraf karwat liye huye vidhi ke hotho par shararat se bhari muskaan thi. Khair kuch pal sochte rahne ke baad dushyant sofe se utha aur kamre ke darwaze ki taraf badha.
"Achha thik hai mere kamre me hi so jaao." Dushyant ke jane ki aahat sun vidhi ne palat kar kaha_____"Lekin mere sath bed par nahi balki sofe par baithe baithe hi so jaao aur haan khabardaar jo mujhe sota dekh kar mauke pe chauka maarne ka socha to....Ab good night."
"Tum mujhe warn kar rahi ho." Dushyant ne palat kar muskurate huye kaha______"Ya mujhe taav de rahi ho.?"
"Zyada bakwas na karo tum." Vidhi ne aankhe dikhate huye kaha_____"Aur agar aisa kiya to soch lena khoon kar dugi tumhara."
"Sach me yaar." Dushyant sofe par baithte huye bola_____"Bahut zaalim ho tum. Zara bhi raham nahi hai tumhare dil me mere liye."
"Raham nahi hota." Vidhi ne dusri taraf karwat le li thi aur uske hotho par fir muskaan ubhar aayi thi, boli_____"To tumhe apne kamre me sone ke liye nahi kahti. Ab koi baat nahi...good night."
Vidhi ke good night kahne par dushyant ne kuch nahi kaha balki sofe par hi kisi tarah let gaya tha. Halaaki usme letne ki jagah nahi thi magar fir bhi usne khud ko kisi tarah adjust kar liya tha. Kamar se neeche ka hissa sofe se jhool raha tha aur pair seedhe the jo farsh par jame huye the. Is haalat me use comfortable to nahi lag raha tha magar kar bhi kya sakta tha. Wo to sona hi nahi chaahta tha kyo ki use us naqaab wale par koi bharosa nahi tha. Wo nahi chaahta tha ki uske so jane par vidhi ke sath koi anhoni ho jaye. Agar aisa ho gaya to wo kabhi khud ko maaf nahi kar payega.
Kamre me night bulb ka prakash tha. Vidhi dusri taraf ko chehra kiye leti huyi thi kintu neend uski aankho me bhi nahi thi. Hoti bhi kaise aaj do cheeze baaki dino se alag huyi thi. Ek to naqaab wale ka is tarah ghar ki khidki ke sheeshe ko fod kar use darana aur dusra inspector dushyant ka uske kamre me hona. Yu to use kamre me dushyant ke hone se koi problem nahi thi aur na hi uske man me ye baat thi ki use dushyant par bharosa nahi hai. Iske baavjud aaj ke haadse ne use andar se vichlit kar diya tha. Upar se naqaab wale ke bare me jo kahani dushyant ne use sunaayi thi uske bare me bhi uske zahen me na chaahte huye bhi soch ubhar aati thi.
Kamre me kaafi der se khamoshi chhaayi huyi thi. Vidhi ne aahista se palat kar dushyant ki taraf dekha. Dushyant sofe par badi ajeeb si haalat me aankhe band kiye leta hua tha. Use is tarah lete dekh vidhi ke hotho par muskaan ubhar aayi. Uske man me khayaal ubhra ki dushyant ne ek baar bhi sofe par so jane ki baat par aitraaz nahi jataya tha. Vidhi ne man hi man iske liye dushyant ko sorry kaha aur fir wo araam se aankhe band kar ke let gayi. Kaafi der baad aakhir use neend aayi aur fir wo dusri duniya me pahuch gayi.
Subah dushyant ke jagane par hi uski aankh khuli. Halaaki subah jaldi hi uski aankh khul jaati thi magar raat der se sone ki vajah se aaj subah uski aankh nahi khul paayi thi. Khair dushyant ke jagane par vidhi ne apni aankhe kholi aur jab thik se uski aankhe khul gayi to usne dushyant ke haath me tray dekha to use badi hairaani huyi.
"Good morning my sweet angel." Dushyant ne tray ko vidhi ki taraf badhaya aur fir muskurate huye kaha______"Aapke liye haazir hai garma garam chaay. Main aapki tarah sweet to nahi bana sakta magar buri bhi nahi banaya hoga, aisa mera anumaan hai."
"Oh my god.!" Vidhi ko pahle to hairaani huyi uske baad muskurate huye boli_____"Tumne mujhe jagaya kyo nahi dushyant. Main bana deti na....tumne kyo taklif ki.?"
"To kya ho gaya yaar.?" Dushyant ne kaha_____"Main to khush hu ki maine apni sabse sweet dost ke liye chaay banaayi aur subah subah uske hotho par khushiyo se bhari muskaan le aaya. By the way...zyada bura swaad to nahi hai na chaay ka.? Wo kya hai ki maine pahli baar hi banaya hai ise."
"Bahut achhi banaayi hai tumne." Vidhi ne chaay ka ek ghoont pine ke baad kaha_____"Par agar tum ye soch rahe ho ki tumhare is kaam se main tumhe buddhi nahi kahugi to galat soch rahe ho tum."
"Hahahaha.!" Dushyant hasa_____"Yaar aisi baat nahi hai. Tumhe jo kahna hai kaho magar ek hi request hai tumse ki apne saamne hi jo kuch bolna ho bolna. Kisi aur ke saamne aisa kuch bologi to you know....meri ijjat ka kachra ho jayega."
"Achha ji.?" Vidhi muskuraayi_____"Chalo thik hai kisi aur ke saamne aisa bol kar tumhari ijjat ka kachra nahi karugi. Ab ye chhodo aur ye bataao ki raat me soye the ya ullu ki tarah jaagte hi rahe ho raat bhar.?"
"Kya fark padta hai.?" Dushyant ne baat badalne ki garaz se kaha_____"Is baat ko chhodo aur chaay pi kar fatafat breakfast bana do kyo ki ye mujhe banana nahi aata. Time bahut ho gaya hai aur mujhe thane bhi jana hai."
"Thik hai." Vidhi ne chaay ke khaali cup ko waapas tray me rakha aur bed se utarte huye kaha_____"Tum ruko main fresh ho ke aati hu. Uske baad tumhare liye breakfast banati hu."
Vidhi ki baat par dushyant ne haan me sir hilaya aur fir kamre se baahar chala gaya. Jabki vidhi kamre se hi attach bathroom me daakhil ho gayi. Fresh hone ke baad vidhi ne breakfast banaya aur fir dushyant ke sath usne bhi breakfast kiya. Is dauraan dushyant zyadatar chup hi raha. Jane wo kya soch raha tha. Vidhi ko uska yu chup rahna ajeeb laga. Halaaki wo samajhti thi ki dushyant shayad us naqaab wale ka soch kar uski safety ke bare me soch raha hoga. Pichhle kuch dino se dushyant se uski achhi banne lagi thi. Vidhi ko dushyant ka apne liye yu care karna achha lagne laga tha aur use uski khichaayi karne me bhi maza aata tha. Dushyant ka uski baato par ajeeb tarah react karna achha lagta tha.
"Maine do teen police walo ko yaha bulaya hai." Breakfast ke baad dushyant ne chair se uthte huye kaha_____"Tumhari safety ke liye."
"Aur wo police wale kab tak meri safety ke liye yaha rahenge." Vidhi ne dushyant ki taraf dekhte huye kaha_____"Aur kya tumhe lagta hai ki un police walo ke rahte wo naqaab wala yaha nahi aayega.?"
"Main koi rishk nahi lena chaahta vidhi." Dushyant ne ispast bhaav se kaha_____"Tum achhi tarah jaanti ho ki us naqaab wale ne tumhe kis maksad se daraya tha. Usne tumhare zariye mujhe chetaawni di hai. Wo chaahta hai ki main uske raaste ke beech na aau magar aisa nahi hoga aur jab aisa nahi hoga to wo tumhe nuksaan pahuchane ki koshish karega. Is liye main chaahta hu ki tum police walo ke sanrakshan me raho."
"Agar tumhe lagta hai." Vidhi ne kaha_____"Ki wo naqaab wala mujhe kisi tarah ka nuksaan pahucha sakta hai to tum mujhe apne sath hi rakho. Tum do jagah ko ek sath puri tarah safe nahi kar sake. Tumhare wo police wale uska kya kar lenge agar wo apne sath puri gang hi le kar aa gaya to.? Is liye behtar yahi hoga ki sirf ek jagah ko safe rakhne ki koshish karo aur us jagah par mujhe bhi rakho. Isse tumhara dhyaan bhi ek jagah hi rahega."
"Agar tum iske liye taiyaar ho." Dushyant asal me yahi chaahta tha magar bola is liye nahi tha ki use lagta tha ki vidhi shayad uski baat ko na maane aur ab jab usne khud hi ye baat kah di to usne kaha_____"To isse better kuch hai hi nahi. Asal me main tumse yahi kahna chaahta tha."
"To kaha kyo nahi.?" Vidhi ne use ghoor ke dekha.
"Wo is liye." Dushyant ne jhempte huye kaha______"Ki kya pata tumhe ye baat manjoor hogi ki nahi."
"Isi liye kahti hu." Vidhi ne usi tarah ghurte hue kaha_____"Ki dhele bhar ka bhi sense nahi hai tumhare paas. Buddhu kahi ke."
"Haan tumhare hi paas to bas sense hai." Dushyant ne bhi use ghoora______"Tabhi to ek naqaab wale se itna dari huyi thi ki mujhe dekhte hi mujhse lipat gayi thi."
"To tumne kaun sa teer maar liya hai.?" Vidhi ne apna haath nachate huye kaha______"Pahle se jaante the us naqaab wale ke bare me aur abhi tak use pakad nahi paye. Bade aaye teer maar khaan kahi ke...huh."
"Kya ye kisi teer maarne se kam hai." Dushyant ne muskurate huye kaha______"Ki maine mauke pe chauka maar liya.?"
"Kya kaha tumne.?" Vidhi ki aankhe fail gayi, fir boli______"To tum us bare me aisa sochte ho.? Bahut gande ho tum. Jaao mujhe tumse koi dosti wosti nahi rakhni."
"Aree suno to." Dushyant ekdam se hadbada gaya. Usne to bas mazaak me kaha tha, bola______"Main to ye baat bas mazaak me kah raha tha yaar. Tum bhi to meri kitna khichaayi karti ho. Kya maine uske liye bura mana.?"
"Aanshu mat bahaao." Vidhi ne palat kar kaha_____"Kapde change karne ja rahi hu. Main bhi tumhare sath hi chalugi. Rondu kahi ke....huh."
Vidhi ne ye kaha aur fir pair patakte huye upar apne kamre ki taraf chali gayi. Jabki uski is baat par dushyant muskuraye bina nahi rah saka tha. Khair vidhi ke jane ke baad usne vikrant ko phone lagaya aur usse waha ki information li aur fir use kuch zaruri baate bata kar phone rakh diya. Uske zahen me ek hi baat chal rahi thi ki aaj apni dhamki ke anusaar naqaab wala avinash ko uski baat na maanne ke liye jaan se maarne aayega. Kya wo sach me apni dhamki ko pura karne aayega.? Kya sach me wo avinash ko jaan se maarne ki koshish karega ya fir ye uski kori dhamki hi bas thi..?
"Aree suno to." Dushyant ekdam se hadbada gaya. Usne to bas mazaak me kaha tha, bola______"Main to ye baat bas mazaak me kah raha tha yaar. Tum bhi to meri kitna khichaayi karti ho. Kya maine uske liye bura mana.?"
"Aanshu mat bahaao." Vidhi ne palat kar kaha_____"Kapde change karne ja rahi hu. Main bhi tumhare sath hi chalugi. Rondu kahi ke....huh."
Vidhi ne ye kaha aur fir pair patakte huye upar apne kamre ki taraf chali gayi. Jabki uski is baat par dushyant muskuraye bina nahi rah saka tha. Khair vidhi ke jane ke baad usne vikrant ko phone lagaya aur usse waha ki information li aur fir use kuch zaruri baate bata kar phone rakh diya. Uske zahen me ek hi baat chal rahi thi ki aaj apni dhamki ke anusaar naqaab wala avinash ko uski baat na maanne ke liye jaan se maarne aayega. Kya wo sach me apni dhamki ko pura karne aayega.? Kya sach me wo avinash ko jaan se maarne ki koshish karega ya fir ye uski kori dhamki hi bas thi..?
Ab Aage,,,,,
"Itni badi baat tumne hamse chhupa kar rakhi officer." DCP manjrekar ne apne saamne baithe inspector dushyant ki taraf dekhte huye kaha______"Aakhir kyo officer.? Aaj agar baat had se zyada na badh gayi hoti to aage bhi tum hame is baat se bekhabar hi rakhne wale the."
"I'm sorry sir." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Lekin is baat ko aapse na batane ke peeche do hi vahaj thi. Ek to ye ki avinash ka maamla koi file me darz case nahi tha. Balki main to insaaniyat ke taur par uski help kar raha tha ki use apne bare me pata chal jaye aur ye bhi ki koi uske sath kis vajah se aisa kar raha hai. Dusri vajah ye thi ki mujhe laga tha ki ye maamla is had tak jayega hi nahi. Magar baat badhte badhte aur bhi badhti chali gayi. Avinash ke maamle me sabse zyada sochne wali baat yahi hai ki uske bare me hame ab tak kuch bhi nahi pata chal saka. Ek to uski momery loss hai is vajah se wo apne bare me kuch nahi bata sakta, dusre uske finger prints ke adhaar par bhi uske bare me kuch pata nahi chal raha. Yaha tak ki news channels ke maadhyam se bhi kuch haasil nahi hua. Hamare paas ab ek yahi raasta hai ki ham uske liye jaal banaye taaki jab wo dubara avinash ke sath kuch bhi karne aaye to wo pakda jaye. Uske pakde jane par hi pata chalega ki aakhir ye maamla kya hai aur kyo hai.?"
"Waise to tumne is sabke bare me hamse chhupa kar achha nahi kiya hai officer." Dcp manjrekar ne kaha______"Magar kyo ki tum hamare department ke bahut hi kaabil officer ho is liye ham is baat ke liye tumhe maaf karte hain. Khair ab ye bataao ki is maamle me tum hamse kya chaahte ho.?"
"Jaisa ki main aapko bata chuka hu sir." Inspector dushyant ne kaha______"Ki pichhli raat us naqaab wale ne miss vidhi ke ghar me ghusne ki koshish ki thi. Halaaki usne khidki ka sheesha todne ke alawa koi aur nuksaan nahi kiya tha magar uski us harkat se saaf ho gaya tha ki usne inke ghar me ja kar sirf isi liye inhe daraya ki wo mujhe indirectly warn kar sake. Jisse ki main uske aur avinash ke beech na aau warna wo vidhi ke sath koi aisi waisi harkat is liye kar sakta hai kyo ki vidhi meri dost hai. Ab aisa to hoga nahi sir ki main us naqaab wale ki aisi kisi dhamki se dar kar uske raaste se hat jaauga. Is liye jab main aisa nahi karuga to yakeenan wo tilmilayega aur fir koi shakht kadam uthayega. Main nahi chaahta ki uski vajah se avinash ya miss vidhi par kisi tarah ki koi musibat aa jaye. Is liye main chaahta hu sir ki in dono ki security ke liye mujhe kuch aise special police wale chahiye jinhone khaas tarah ke kaamo ki training li ho."
Dcp manjrekar ne dushyant ki baat sunne ke baad dushyant ke bagal wali chair par baithi vidhi ki taraf dekha. Vidhi ke ghar se nikalne ke baad inspector dushyant apne sath hi use le kar dcp ke paas aa gaya tha. Ab wo apne alla adhikari se is maamle ko chhupana nahi chaahta tha balki unhe is sabke bare me bata kar unse help lena chaahta tha.
"Theek hai officer." Dcp ne kaha______"Ham aise kuch special police walo ko bhejne ke liye baat karte hain. Tum baaki ki security ka dhyaan rakhna."
"Oh thank you sir." Dushyant kahne ke sath hi chair se khada ho gaya aur fir dcp ko salute bajane ke baad wo vidhi ko le kar cabin se baahar chala gaya.
"To ab kya karna hai.?" Raaste me vidhi ne dushyant ki taraf dekhte huye pucha.
"Wahi jo tumne suggestion diya tha." Dushyant ne halki muskaan ke sath kaha_____"Mere flat me itni jagah hai nahi is liye avinash ko tumhare yaha shift kar duga aur main khud bhi yahi rahuga. Jab tak avinash ka wo dushman yaani ki naqaab posh pakda nahi jata tab tak tumhare ghar me security shakht rahegi."
"Wo to thik hai janaab." Vidhi ne kaha______"Magar kya tumhe lagta hai ki wo naqaab wala itni security ke rahte ghar ke andar ghusne ki koshish karega.?"
"Maanta to main bhi hu." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Ki itni security ke rahte huye wo ghar ke andar ghusne jaisi moorkhta nahi karega magar ye bhi pakki baat hai ki wo security dekh kar peechhe bhi nahi hatega. Wo avinash tak pahuchne ke liye kuch na kuch to zarur karega aur hame uske dwara wahi kuch karne ka intzaar rahega."
"Waise aksar aisa dekha gaya hai." Vidhi ne kaha_____"Ki aise kaam karne walo ke kayi saare sources hote hain. Mera matlab hai ki unke taar police aur kanoon tak bhi pahuche huye hote hain. Jinse unhe madad milti hai. To kya tum uske bare me aisa soch sakte ho ki uska koi madad karne wala police ka koi aadmi bhi ho sakta hai.?"
"Kahna kya chaahti ho tum.?" Dushyant na-samajhne wale bhaav se puchha.
"Yahi ki vikrant rane ke bare me kya khayaal hai tumhara.?" Vidhi ne saaf aur ispast lahje se kaha_____"Kya wo us naqaab wale ka sathi ho sakta hai.?"
"Ye tum kya bol rahi ho vidhi.?" Dushyant buri tarah chaunka tha uski baat se fir bola____"Vikrant rane ek imaandar police wala hai. Uske bare me mujhe mere alla adhikariyo ne sab kuch bataya hai. Tum soch bhi kaise sakti ho ki vikrant rane us naqaab wale ka sathi hoga.?"
"Tum ek police wale ho janaab." Vidhi ne muskurate huye kaha_____"Aur tumhe har kisi par shak karna chahiye. Aksar aisa hota hai ki jo jaisa nazar aata hai wo waisa hota nahi hai. Waise sochne wali baat to hai hi ki vikrant rane tabhi yaha transfer ho ke aaya jab avinash ke maamle me kuch hota nazar aaya. Jabki vikrant rane iske pahle bhi to yaha aa sakta tha. Dusri baat usne itne kam time me avinash ka sara maamla hi apne under me le liya hai. Kya tumhe uski ye baat thodi ajeeb nahi lagi.?"
"Tumhe to yaar sach me police me hona chahiye tha." Dushyant ne muskurate huye kaha______"Mujhe zara bhi ummid nahi thi ki tum is sabke bare me aisa kuch soch sakti ho."
"Abhi maine kaha tha na." Vidhi ne kaha_____"Ki jo jaisa nazar aata hai wo waisa hota nahi hai. Tum maano ya na maano magar mujhe tumhare us vikrant rane par shak hai."
"Kya sirf is liye ki usne itne kam time me avinash ka sara maamla apne under me le liya hai.?" Vikrant ne kaha_____"Jab ki sach to ye hai ki maine khud use is maamle ko apne under me rakhne ko kaha tha."
"Kya main puch sakti hu ki tumne aisa kyo kiya.?" Vidhi ne kaha______"Jab ki shuru se hi tum avinash ke maamle ko apne haath me liye huye the. Ab aisa kya ho gaya hai ki vikrant rane ke aate hi tumne uske under me sab kuch saump diya.?"
"Uski sirf ek hi vajah hai vidhi." Dushyant ne zara jhijhakte huye kaha______"Aur wo ye ki main zyada se zyada tumhare sath time spend karna chaahta tha. Tumhe bata hi chuka tha ki mere dil me tumhare liye kya tha. Ye alag baat hai ki baad me ham dono ek achhe dost ban gaye magar jo cheez dil me hai use nikaal dena mere bas me bhi to nahi hai."
Inspector dushyant ki in baato se vidhi kuch na boli, bas khamoshi se uski taraf dekhti rah gayi. Uske chehre par pal bhar me kayi tarah ke bhaav ubharte nazar aaye. Uski khamoshi dekh kar dushyant ko bechaini si huyi aur uska dil bhi zoro se dhadakne laga tha.
"Dekho tum naraaz na hona yaar." Fir usne baat ko samhaalne ki garaz se kaha_____"Mere dil me bhale hi chaahe jo bhi ho magar main iske liye tum par kabhi koi dabaav nahi daaluga. Ham sirf dost hain."
"Ok fine." Vidhi ne bhaav heen swar me kaha______"To avinash ke maamle ko vikrant ke supurd karne ke pichhe tumhari ye vajah thi.?"
"Haan." Dushyant ne gahri saans lete huye kaha______"Main jaanta hu ki avinash ke maamle ko mujhe kisi aur ke supurd nahi karna chahiye tha magar iska matlab ye bhi nahi hai ki main uske maamle ko ignore kar raha hu. Balki sach to ye hai ki main is maamle ki har pal ki khabar rakhta hu."
"Khabar rakhni bhi chahiye." Vidhi ne kaha_____"Lekin sirf avinash aur naqaab wale ke maamle ki hi nahi balki apne us vikrant rane ki bhi."
"Oh god tum abhi bhi us par shak kar rahi ho.?" Dushyant ne hairaani se vidhi ki taraf dekha.
"Kya karu janaab." Vidhi ne muskurate huye kaha______"Ek police wale ki dost hu. Is liye kuch to asar hoga hi mujh par."
Vidhi ki is baat par dushyant muskuraya to zarur magar man hi man bola_____'Ek police wale ki dost ki jagah agar police wale ki jaane bahaar kah deti to kya chala jata tumhara.?'
Kuch hi der me dushyant ki police gipsy vidhi ke ghar ke saamne ruki. Dushyant ne dekha ki ghar ke baahar kayi saare police wale maujood hain. Vikrant rane use kahi nazar nahi aaya. Shayad ghar ke andar hoga avinash ke sath, aisa usne socha. Khair gipsy ke rukte hi dono niche utre. Dushyant ko dekhte hi waha maujood police walo ne use salute kiya. Dushyant ne un sabke salute ka jawaab sir ko halka sa kham karke diya aur fir ek police wale se vikrant ke bare me puchha to usne bataya ki wo avinash ko le kar aa rahe hain.
Us police wale ki is baat par dushyant ke maathe par shikan ubhar aayi. Use yaad aaya ki raaste me usne vikrant se phone par baat ki thi. Tab vikrant ne usse kaha tha ki wo avinash ko le kar vidhi ke ghar aa jayega aur wahi usse milega. Magar wo ab tak nahi pahucha tha. Dushyant ne mobile nikaal kar vikrant ko call kiya. Ring jane ki awaaz uske kaano me padi magar call receive nahi huyi balki puri bell jane ke baad call cut ho gayi. Dushyant ne kayi baar call kiya magar udhar se vikrant ne call receive nahi ki. Ye dekh kar dushyant ke chehre par pareshani ke bhaav ubhar aaye.
"Kya hua.?" Vidhi jo uske paas hi khadi thi usne dushyant ko achanak hi pareshan hote dekh puchha.
"Vikrant phone nahi utha raha." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Use to hamse pahle hi avinash ko le kar yaha aa jana chahiye tha magar nahi aaya aur ab phone bhi nahi utha raha. Abhi kuch der pahle hi to usse baat huyi thi meri. Kahi uske aur avinash ke sath kuch...!"
"Ho sakta hai." Vidhi uski baat puri hone se pahle hi bol padi_____"Agar wo yaha hamse pahle nahi pahucha to yakeenan koi baat hai."
"Oh god." Dushyant ke mano mastishk me ekdam se jaise jhanaka sa hua, bola_____"Kahi raaste me us naqaab wale ne to nahi unke sath kuch kar diya.? Yakeenan aisa ho sakta hai."
Kahne ke sath hi dushyant badi tezi se apni gipsy ki taraf bhaga. Use is tarah bhaagte dekh vidhi bhi uske peeche bhaagi. Dushyant gipsy me baith chuka tha aur vidhi ko apni taraf aate dekha to usne use yahi rukne ko kaha aur fir gipsy ko start kar wo badi tezi se gipsy ko ek taraf dauda diya. Abhi dushyant kuch hi door gaya tha ki tabhi uska phone baja. Usne drive karte huye hi mobile par aa rahi call ko receive kar ke use kaan se lagaya to udhar se jo kuch uske kaan me kaha gaya use sun kar inspector dushyant ka dimaag hang ho gaya aur haath paanv thande pad gaye.
<>•<>•<>
Inspector dushyant se phone par baat karne ke baad vikrant dushyant ke flat se avinash ko le kar nikla tha. Ek dusri police ki jeep me usne apne sath hi avinash ko baitha liya tha aur jeep ke peeche chaar police wale bhi baith gaye the. Vikrant ki jeep ke peeche ek aur police ki jeep thi jisme kuch police wale the aur vikrant wali jeep ki security ke liye piche piche chal rahe the.
Flat se nikalne ke baad paanch minute tak sab kuch theek thaak hi tha. Sadak ke ek taraf boundary wall thi aur uske peeche kuch doori par makaan bane huye the jabki dusri taraf sadak ke kinaare kinaare bade bade pedh the. Is wakt sadak par zyada aawa jaahi nahi thi. Is taraf ka raasta aisa hi rahta tha magar vikrant ya dusre police walo ko yaha par kisi anhoni ke hone ki zara bhi ummid nahi thi.
Sadak par dono police ki jeepe araam se chal rahi thi ki tabhi saamne se ek truck aata hua dikha. Sadak itni to chaudi thi ki saamne se aata hua truck bade araam se apni side par se nikal sakta tha. Samne se aata hua truck jab kuch paas aaya to uske peeche ek aur truck aata hua dikha. Vikrant ki jeep ke bagal se aage wala truck bade araam se nikal gaya aur uske nikalne ke baad uske peeche wala truck jab vikrant ki jeep ke paas aaya to usne achanak hi jeep ko side se takkar maar di. Parinaamswaroop vikrant ki jeep lahra gayi aur sadak ke kinaare par bane cemented naali par jeep ka aage wala ek pahiya ghus gaya. Vikrant ne bahut samhaalne ki koshish ki thi magar use zara bhi ummid nahi thi saamne se aate huye truck ke peeche wala truck achanak se uski jeep me takkar maar dega. Jeep ka pahiya naali me bade veg se ghusa tha aur fir nateeja ye nikla ki jeep side se palat'ti chali gayi. Uske baad kya hua ye dekhne ke liye jeep me kisi ki bhi na aakhe khuli rah saki thi aur na hi kisi ko hosh rah gaya tha.
Sadak par huye is haadse ki awaaz sadak ke dusri taraf kuch doori par bane makaano ke andar tak pahuch gayi thi. Nateeja ye nikla ki kuch hi der me kayi saare log ghatna isthal par pahuch gaye. Logo ne sadak par do police ki jeepo ko aage pichhe kuch faasle par naali ke paas palti huyi haalat me dekha to sab ke sab thage se rah gaye the. Fir kisi ne is baat ki khabar thaane me ki to kuch hi der me waga par do moter sycle me kuch police wale aaye.
Sadak par ulti padi jeepo ko dekh kar police walo ki rooh kaamp gayi thi. Unme se ek ne apne mobile se jaldi hi ambulance ko phone lagaya aur uske baad inspector dushyant ko phone kar ke maamle ki suchna di.
Watawaran me maut jaisa sannata chhaya hua tha. Halaaki kuch doori par khade log aapas me khusur fusur kar rahe the. Ghatna isthal par aaye police walo ne dono jeepo ke paas ja kar dekha. Jeep ke palat jane se kuch police wale jeep se baahar nikal kar kuch doori par lahu luhaan pade the. Sub inspector vikrant apne bagal se left side avinash ke upar ludhka pada tha. Uski police ki wardi jagah jagah khoon se sani huyi thi. Yahi haal peeche wali jeep ka bhi tha. Jeep me aaya koi bhi shakhs hosh me nahi tha. Kisi ke sir me chot lagi thi to kisi ka hath toot gaya tha. Accident agar zyada gambheer nahi tha to maamuli bhi nahi tha.
Abhi wo ye sab dekh hi rahe the ki inspector dushyant apni gipsy se waha pahucha. Uske peeche hi ambulance ki do gaadiya bhi aa gayi. Aanan faanan me sabhi ko ambulance me dala gaya aur fir sabko fauran hi city hospital ilaaj ke liye le jaya gaya. Inspector dushyant ne ghatna isthal ka baariki se muaayna kiya aur fir waha kuch hi doori par khade logo se is waardaat ke bare me puchhtaanch karne laga.
Logo se puchtaanch me ye baat saamne aayi ki unhone yaha se do trucko ko jate dekha tha. Mumkin hai un truck walo ne hi is haadse ko anjaam diya hoga. Dushyant to samajh chuka tha ki ye kaam us naqaab wale ka hi hai magar wo logo se ye pata karne ki koshish kar raha tha ki kya kisi ne truck ke andar baithe driver ka chehra dekha tha ya kisi ne un trucko ko police jeepo par takkar maarte dekha tha.? Is sawaal ka jawaab logo ne yahi diya ki unme se kisi ne bhi truck driver ka chehra nahi dekha magar haan kuch logo ne truck ka rang roop aur number zarur note kar liya tha.
Dushyant ko ummid thi ki truck ki name plate farzi hi hogi fir bhi usne un trucko ke number ke adhaar par un do trucko ki khoj shuru kar di. Is kaam me dushyant ko zyada pareshani nahi huyi kyo ki use wo dono truck aadhe km ki doori par hi ek mod par khade mil gaye the. Dushyant ne truck ke andar dekha to paya ki truck ke andar koi nahi hai. Use samajhne me der na lagi ki truck chaalak waardaat ko anjaam de kar badi safaayi se nikal gaya hai. RTO se pata chala ki truck me lagi number plates farzi hain. Kahne ka matlab ye ki inspector dushyant ko un trucko se koi saboot ya koi suraag haath nahi lag saka.
Inspector dushyant thak haar kar truck se niche utar hi raha tha ki tabhi use kuch dikha. Truck ke driving gate ke kinare laal rang ka dhabba dikha use. Thik se dekhne par pata chala ki wo dhabba asal me khoon hai. Dushyant ke zahen me khayaal ubhra. Truck ke is gate par kiska khoon ho sakta hai.? Kya is truck me naqaab wala tha ya uska koi sathi.? Khoon taza tha, matlab kuch hi der pahle ka hai. Mumkin hai ki jalbaazi me utarte wakt yaha par shareer ka koi bhaag zor se laga hoga jisse ki us bhaag par cut laga aur gate par khoon lag gaya.
Inspector dushyant ne dono trucko se finger prints lene ke liye finger prints aur forensic walo ko phone kar ke bulaya. Phone karne ke baad dushyant trucko ke aas paas zameen ka muaayna karne laga. Pakki sadak thi is liye kisi ke foot prints milna asaan nahi tha fir bhi dushyant badi bareeki se aas paas dekh raha tha. Is taraf abaadi kam thi fir bhi dushyant ka anumaan tha ki kisi ne to kuch dekha hoga. Ye soch kar dushyant us makaan ki taraf badha jo baaki makaan se zyada paas me tha. Kuch hi der me wo us makaan ke darwaze par pahucha aur darwaze ko thapthapaya.
Darwaza ek atharah unnees saal ki ladki ne khola. Darwaze ke baahar ek police wale ko dekh kar ladki ke chehre par ghabrahat ke bhaav ubhre. Dushyant ne usse puchha ki usne thodi der pahle yaha se kuch logo ko bhaagte dekha hai kya.? Dushyant ke is sawaal par ladki ne kuch pal socha aur fir haan me sir hilaya. Dushyant ke puchne par ladki ne bataya ki usne ek aadmi ko dekha hai bhaagte huye. Wo makaan ke andar kitchen me thi aur kitchen ke saamne wali khidki se usne ek aadmi ko dekha hai.
Us ladki ke anusaar aadmi ek hi tha aur gunda jaisa lagta tha. Halaaki usne thik se uska chehra nahi dekha tha magar wo bhaag aise raha tha jaise uske peeche saikdo bhoot lage ho. Ladki ki baat sun kar dushyant soch me pad gaya ki ladki ne ek hi aadmi ko kaise dekha.? Jabki uske anusaar kayi aadmi hone chahiye the. Do truck the to do aadmi to zarur hone chahiye the. Ladki se puchtaanch karne ke baad dushyant waapas trucko ke paas aa gaya. Uske man me khayaal aaya ki ho sakta hai ki wo log ek sath ek taraf na bhaage ho yaani alag alag disha me bhaage ho taaki asaani se kisi ki nazar me na aaye ya pahchaane na jaye. Agar aisa tha to yakeenan unhone pahle se hi sab kuch plan kar ke rakha tha.
Finger prints aur forensic walo ke aane ke baad dushyant gipsy se hospital chala gaya. Is haadse ne use hila ke rakh diya tha. Use zara bhi ummid nahi thi ki naqaab wala itna jaldi aisa kar guzrega. Matlab saaf tha ki wo dushyant aur vikrant dono ki gatividhi par nazar rakhe huye tha. Use achhi tarah pata tha ki dushyant ke flat ke andar jana khatre se khaali nahi hoga is liye usne avinash ko baahar hi target karne ka soch liya tha.
Hospital me dushyant doctor se mila aur usse sabka haal chaal puchha jis par doctor ne bataya ki jaan to kisi ki bhi nahi gayi magar sab ke sab gambheer roop se ghayal zarur huye hain. Agar jeep kayi baar paltiya kha jati to kisi na kisi ki maut pakki thi. Halaaki ye bhi unki achhi kismat ki hi baat thi jo is accident me sab ke sab jaan se bach gaye hain. Doctor se baat karne ke baad dushyant vikrant se milne gaya to dekha wo hosh me aa chuka tha. Uske sir par aur haatho me kayi jagah pattiya lagi huyi thi. Dushyant ko dekhte hi uske hotho par feeki si muskaan ubhar aayi. Uske baad usne larajte swar me bas itna hi kaha ki sorry sir. Jawaab me dushyant ne bhi koi baat nahi kaha aur fir uska haal chaal puchhne ke baad usi hall me dusri taraf ek bed par pade avinash ki taraf gaya.
Avinash ka haal vikrant se zyada bura tha. Uske sir me to patti bandhi hi thi magar chehre par bhi kafi chot dikh rahi thi jis par marham patti lagi huyi thi, sath hi baye hath me plaster chadha hua tha. Doctor ne bataya tha ki uska baya hath toot gaya tha. Avinash apni aankhe band kiye leta hua tha. Dushyant ne usse kuch bhi puchna sahi nahi samjha aur uth kar baaki police walo ko dekhne laga. Uske baad wo waapas doctor ke paas aaya aur usse sabke discharge karne ke bare me baat karne laga.
Us wakt chaar baj rahe the jab dushyant avinash ko liye vidhi ke ghar pahucha. Usne phone par vidhi se is haadse ke bare me bata diya tha. Haadse ki baat sun kar vidhi ko bhi jhatka laga tha. Khair vidhi ke ghar aate hi dushyant ne avinash ko ek kamre me shift kar diya. Dushyant ne vikrant ko apne flat me rahne ko bol diya tha aur khud vidhi ke ghar me rahne ka bol diya tha usse.
Inspector dushyant soch raha tha ki kaha wo avinash aur vidhi ki security ke liye pukhta intjaam karne ke liye dcp ke paas gaya tha aur kaha us naqaab wale ne badi safaayi se apne kaam ko anjaam de diya tha. Din dahaade aisa karnaama kiya tha us naqaab wale ne jo ki soch aur ummid se pare tha. Dushyant ke zahen me ek sawaal uchhal kood macha raha tha ki naqaab wale ne itna bada kaand kyo kiya.? Matlab ki agar is accident me avinash ki jaan chali jati to.? Kya naqaab wale ne avinash ko jaan se maarne ke liye hi is accident ko anjaam diya tha ya fir ye accident pahle se hi planed tha. Matlab ki usko utna hi karna tha jitne me kisi ki jaan na ja sake. Khaas kar avinash ki to bilkul bhi nahi. Dushyant ko apna ye vichaar ekdam sahi laga. Yaani naqaab wale ne sab kuch plan kar ke kiya tha. Iska matlab ye hua ki wo apni dhamki ko pura kar gaya tha. Magar uske track record ka kya jo wo har baar avinash ko ek hi jurm me fasa kar kaayam kiye huye tha.?

Ab Aage,,,,,,
"Ye chot kaise lagi tumhe.?" Bed par baithe shakhs ke baye hath ki ungli par patti baandhte huye us aurat ne kaha jo marhoom film actress saundarya jaisi dikhti thi.
"Jaldbazi karne ka nateeja hai ye." Shakhs ne sapaat lahje me kaha_____"Aur jaldbaazi me kiye gaye kaam me koi na koi galti zarur ho jati hai."
"Achha aisi kya galti ho gayi tumse.?" Aurat ne shakhs ko tirchhi nazar se dekhte huye puchha.
"Sab kuch to plan ke hisaab se hi hua tha saundarya." Shakhs ne kaha______"Magar last me jaldbazi ke chakkar me galti ho gayi. Truck se baahar nikalte wakt truck ke gate par hath khich gaya. Gate ke kor par halki si chaddar nikli huyi thi jise maine jaldi ke chakkar me nahi dekha tha aur jaise hi main gate pakad kar niche kooda to gate ke us kor par hath khich gaya aur us nukile chaddar ne ungli me cut maar diya. Us wakt time nahi tha mere paas is liye mujhe waha se bhaagna pada. Warna do pal lagte us jagah se apne khoon ko saaf karne me."
"Ye to sach me bahut badi galti ho gayi tumse." Saundarya ne patti baandh kar bed par us shakhs ke bagal se baithte huye kaha______"Us khoon ki vajah se tum fas sakte ho. Police us khoon ke sample se tumhare bare me pata karne ki koshish karegi."
"Fikar ki koi baat nahi hai dear." Shakhs ne saundarya ke gore gore gaal ko sahlate huye kaha______"Police ko mere us khoon ke sample se zyada se zyada mere DNA ka hi pata chalega aur DNA ke adhaar par wo mere bare me kuch bhi pata nahi kar sakti."
"Tum bhool rahe ho mere jaanu dot com." Saundarya ne bhi shakhs ke gaalo ko sahlate huye kaha_____"Ki tumhare DNA se police ko pata chal sakta hai ki tum aur tumhare us dushman ka gahra relation hai."
"Aisa to tab hoga na dear." Shakhs ne muskurate huye kaha_____"Jab police mere aur us namuraad ke DNA ko match karme ka sochegi aur hamare desh ki nikammi police ko itna zyada sochna pasand hi nahi hai."
"Har police wala nikamma nahi hota mere sona." Saundarya ne shakhs ke hotho ko halke se chumne ke baad kaha_____"Kuch log dusre kaam se zyada sochne wala kaam bhi karte hain. Khair chhodo aur ye bataao ki aaj kya hua waha par.?"
"Tumhari baat maan kar maine apne track record ke opposite kaam kiya hai." Shakhs ne kaha______"Halaaki is baar situation aisi thi ki track record ko continue nahi kar sakta tha. Kyo ki wo kamina police ki protection me tha. Maine use warn bhi kiya tha magar wo nahi mana. Is liye tumhari baato par hi amal karne ka socha aur bas game ko sahi se anjaam diya."
Kahne ke sath hi shakhs ne saundarya ko sara kissa suna diya. Sari baate sunne ke baad saundarya use ajeeb bhaav se dekhne lagi thi. Uske chehre par kayi tarah ke bhaav aate jate nazar aaye.
"Aisa karne ko to nahi kaha tha maine.?" Saundarya ne chintit bhaav se kaha______"Agar aise me uski jaan chali jati to socha hai kya ho jata.? Ham kabhi nahi jaan pate ki usne unhe kaha nazarband kiya hai.?"
"Tum mujhe bevkoof samajhti ho kya.?" Shakhs ne naagwari bhare andaaz se kaha_____"Are itna main bhi samajhta hu ki uski jaan agar chali jayegi to hamare liye badi bhaari musibat ho jayegi. Maine sab kuch plan kiya hua tha aur usi plan ke anusaar hi sab kuch kiya hai. Wo accident aisa kiya hi nahi gaya jisse ki uski jaan chali jaye. Magar haan itna to zarur tha ki usse usko sabak mil jaye next time ke liye."
"Tumhare is kaand se." Saundarya ne kaha_____"Ye bhi samajh lo ki wo police inspector ab ghayal sher ki tarah tum par jhaptega. Is liye ab tumhe apna har kadam pahle se bhi zyada foonk foonk kar rakhna hoga."
"Wo sala jhaptega to tab na jab wo mujhe talaash kar payega." Shakhs ne halki muskaan ke sath kaha______"Abhi to wo apni nakaami par aanshu baha raha hoga. Waise ek baat to hai yaar aur wo ye ki uski girl friend bahut hi khubsurat hai. Us raat jab maine use dekha tha to mera imaan dol gaya tha use dekh kar. Main chaahta to uska ras nichod sakta tha kyo ki itna to time tha mere paas magar fir irada badal liya maine."
"Kyo bhala.?" Saundarya ne uski aankho me dekhte huye kaha_____"Irada kyo badal liya tha apna.? Chale jate na uske paas aur nichod lete use."
"Yakeenan wo jawaani ki us dahleez par thi dear." Shakhs ne usi muskaan ke sath kaha_____"Jaha se ras tapakne lagta hai magar fir mujhe khayaal aaya ki usse kahi zyada raseeli to meri saundarya hai."
"Ab baate na banaao tum." Saundarya ne jaise tana maarte huye kaha_____"Sab samajhti hu main. Sare mard ek jaise hi hote hain. Sundar ladki dekhi nahi ki laar tapakne lagti hai."
"Yaar agar itni hi meri laar tapak rahi hoti." Shakhs ne saundarya ke chehre ko apni hatheliyo me bharte huye kaha_____"To kya uska ras paan karne uske paas nahi jata.?"
"To chale jate na." Saundarya ne bura sa muh banate huye kaha______"Tumhe rokne ke liye main thode na thi waha par."
"Tum agar waha hoti." Shakhs ne kaha_____"To main tumhe dikhate huye us ladki se kahta ki dekh lo tumse kisi bhi maamle me meri saundarya kam nahi hai. Is liye apni khubsurti ka ghamand to bhool kar bhi na karna."
"Mujhe bahlane ka tareeka achha hai." Saundarya ne muskurate huye kaha______"Magar main in baato se bahalne wali nahi hu. Uske liye tumhe mujhe jee bhar ke pyar karna hoga."
"Ohh aisi baat hai kya.?" Shakhs ne kaha_____"Chalo fir aaj isi khushi me sari raat tumhe pyar karuga. Ab khush ho na.?"
Shakhs ki baat par saundarya ke chehre par khushi ki chamak ubhar aayi aur usne lapak kar shakhs ke hotho par apne hoth rakh diye. Shakhs ne bhi use apni baaho me kas liya. Abhi wo use bed par letaane hi wala tha ki uska mobile phone baj utha. Ye dekh kar us shakhs ne saundarya ko beman se chhoda aur fir apni paint ki jeb se mobile nikaal kar mobile ki screen par flash kar rahe number ko dekha.

Naqaab wale ne jo kaand kiya tha usse police department me halchal ho gayi thi. Aath police wale aur ek sub inspector us haadse se buri tarah zakhmi ho gaye the. Dcp manjrekar ko kyo ki dushyant ne sab kuch bata diya tha magar uske baad aaj jo kuch hua tha usse maamla sangeen ho gaya tha. Dcp ke sath kayi aur alla adhikariyo ne is bare me dushyant ko aade haath le liya tha. Aakhir dushyant ki safaayi aur badi jaddo jahad ke baad office me sab ke beech thodi shaanti huyi thi. Uske baad alla adhikariyo ne dushyant ko shakht nirdesh dete huye hukum diya tha ki is kaand ko karne wale us naqaab posh aur uske sathiyo ko fauran talaash kiya jaye.
Inspector dushyant apne alla adhikariyo se faarig hone ke baad apne flat gaya, jaha wo vikrant se mila aur uska haal chaal pucha uske baad wo shaam ko lagbhag saadhe saat baje vidhi ke ghar pahucha. Vidhi ke ghar ko har taraf se security dwara laish kar diya gaya tha. Ab waha par koi parinda bhi par nahi maar sakta tha.
Dushyant upar se bhale hi khud ko beparwaah show kar raha tha magar sach to ye tha ki wo andar se behad tanaaw me tha. Uski soch ke vipreet us naqaab wale ne achha khasa kaand kar diya tha jiske liye use apne alla adhikaariyo ke saamne sharminda hona pada tha. Baat agar sirf avinash ki hoti to itna kuch use sunne ko nahi milta aur na hi baat itni zyada badh jaati magar yaha to ek sub-inspector aur aath aath police walo ki jaan par ban aayi thi. Agar is accident me kisi ki jaan chali jaati to dushyant ko apni naukari se bhi haath dhona pad sakta tha.
Inspector dushyant ke haath us naqaab wale ke khilaaf koi bhi pukhta saboot ya suraag nahi laga tha, jiski vajah se wo naqaab wale tak pahuch sakta. Truck ke darwaze par lage khoon se use kuch badad mil sakti thi agar wo khoon us naqaab wale ka hua to warna naqaab wala uski pahuch se waise hi door tha jaise zameen par khade kisi insaan ke liye chaand ko pana. Dushyant ko forensic report ka intzaar tha. Wo man hi man dua kar raha tha ki truck ke darwaze par laga khoon us naqaab wale ka hi ho. Halaaki khoon ke DNA ka pata chal jane se bhi koi faayda nahi hone wala tha kyo ki us DNA me ye to likha nahi hoga ki wo khoon kisi naqaab wale ka hai. Kahne ka matlab ye ki dushyant us khoon ki DNA report se bhi kuch haasil nahi kar sakta tha.
Raat me vidhi ne sabke liye khana banaya. Dushyant ne khud ja kar avinash ko uske kamre me khana khilaya aur use araam se so jane ke liye kaha. Uske baad dushyant aur vidhi ne sath hi khana khaya. Is beech vidhi ke puchhne par dushyant ne use sab kuch bata diya tha. Vidhi maujuda situation ko bakhubi samajh sakti thi. Is liye usne dushyant ko zyada tension na lene ke liye hi kaha.
"Maamla itna bigad gaya hai vidhi ki ab main chain aur sukoon se nahi rah sakta." Dushyant ne gambheer bhaav se vidhi ki taraf dekhte huye kaha_____"Meri zindagi me aisa pahli baar hua hai ki mujhe kisi case ke silsile me itni badi nakaami aur apne alla adhikariyo ki daant ka saamna karna pada hai. Isse pahle maine jatil se bhi jatil cases solve kiye hain aur unke liye mujhe apne alla adhikariyo se shabashi hi milti thi magar ye case mere liye jaise manhusiyat ka pramaad ban gaya hai. Sab meri hi galti hai vidhi. Mujhe avinash ke matter me interest lena hi nahi chahiye tha."
"Waqt hamesha ek jaisa nahi rahta dushyant." Vidhi ne samjhane wale bhaav se kaha______"Balki badalta rahta hai. Ham agar kabhi jeet'te hain to kabhi haarte bhi hain. Ham winner hone par khushiya manaate aur looser banne par dukhi hote hain, jabki haarne se hame dukhi nahi hona chahiye. Balki ye soch kar khush hona chahiye ki hame apni ek galti ya ek kamjori ka ilm to hua jise hame next time ke liye sudhaar lena chahiye. Tumhare liye ye ek achha avsar hai khud ko winner saabit karne ka. Is liye is haadse ko bhool kar ek naye sire se shuruaat karo aur pura focus us naqaab wale par lagaao. Aisa kabhi nahi ho sakta ki jurm karne wala kabhi pakda hi na jaye. Aaj nahi to kal uske khilaaf koi na koi saboot ya suraag zarur milega jiski vajah se wo kanoon ki chapet me aayega. Tumhe us saboot ya suraag ko kisi bhi haal me khojna hai aur haan mujhe pura yakeen hai ki mera sweet sa dost us naqaab wale ke khilaaf aisa koi suraag zarur khoj lega. Chalo ab smile karo...mujhe tumhara ye sad sa chehra bilkul bhi achha nahi lag raha....rondu kahi ke."
"Mujhe pata hai." Dushyant ne hotho par halki muskaan saja kar kaha_____"Ki tum mujhe bahlaane ki koshish kar rahi ho magar shayad is wakt mere liye itni asaani se bahal jana asaan nahi hai."
"Iska to ek hi matlab hua." Vidhi ne kaha_____"Ki tum khud ko sach me looser saabit kar rahe ho. Wo naqaab wala bhi shayad yahi chaahta hoga ki tum is haadse se hataash ho jaao aur fir is case se yaani ki avinash ke raaste se hat jaao. Us soorat me uske liye avinash ke sath kuch bhi karne me koi bhi mushkil nahi hogi."
"Avinaash ke maamle ko chhod kar peechhe hat jane ka sawaal hi paida nahi hota vidhi." Dushyant ne gahri saans lete huye kaha______"Ye sach hai ki is haadse ne mujhe buri tarah vichlit kar diya hai magar main is haadse ki vajah se avinaash ke maamle ko chhod nahi sakta. Kyo ki ye mere liye ek chunauti ban gayi hai. Apne liye bhi aur apne alla adhikariyo ki nazar me khud ko behtar saabit karne ke liye bhi. Jhatka to laga hai mujhe is sabse is liye ab mujhe pahle se zyada is maamle me satarkta aur samajhdaari akhtiyaar karni hogi."
"Very good." Vidhi ke gulaabi hotho par muskaan thirak uthi, boli_____"That' like a good boy. So ab kya karne ka socha hai.?"
"Us naqaab wale ki tarah mujhe bhi sochna padega." Dushyant ne kaha______"Use meri har gatividhi ki khabar hoti hai. Iska matlab wo khud ya fir uska koi aadmi har pal ham par nazar rakhta hai. Use achhi tarah pata tha ki us din ke haadse ke baad hamne avinash ke liye security tight kar di hai is liye ghar ke andar ghus kar avinash ke sath kuch bhi karna uske liye asaan nahi tha. Isi liye usne avinash ke sath kuch karne ke liye alag tareeka apnaya magar wo tareeka tabhi safal hota jab avinash use ghar se baahar khuli jagah par milta. Iske liye usne tumhe darane ka raasta chuna. Use pata tha ki uski is harkat se mujh par asar hoga aur main tumhare liye bhi security provide karuga magar do do jagah ko secure karne me kahi na kahi security ki tightness me kami aayegi aur mumkin hai ki main avinash ko ya tumhe ek jagah ek sath hi rakhne ka sochu. Aisa hua bhi, aur yahi wo naqaab wala chaahta tha. Use pata tha ki dono ko ek jagah rakhne ke bare me main tumhare ghar ka hi sochuga aur fir avinash ko apne flat se tumhare yaha laauga. Ham kyo ki ye kalpana bhi nahi kar sakte the ki itne police walo ke rahte huye wo naqaab wala is tarah ka koi hamla karega is liye beparwaah the jabki uska to plan hi tha ki ham avinash ko baahar nikaale aur wo avinash ko target bana le."
"Baat to tumhari theek hai." Vidhi ne kaha______"Magar beparwaah kahna sahi nahi lagta mujhe. Seedhi si baat hai ki jab avinash ko tumhare flat se yaha lane ke liye nikala gaya tab us jeep me vikrant ke sath chaar police wale the aur uske peechhe bhi ek jeep thi jisme chaar police wale. Iska matlab ye hua ki aisa tabhi kiya gaya na jab hamare zahen me ye khayaal tha ki hame avinash ki us naqaab wale se suraksha karni hai kyo ki usko naqaab wale se khatra hai. Yaani aisa khayaal ye darshata hai ki ham beparwaah nahi the. Ab sochne wali baat ye hai ki jab hamare zahen me aisa khayaal tha to naqaab wala apne maksad me kaise kamyaab ho gaya.?"
"Kya kahna chaahti ho tum.?" Dushyant ke maathe par shikan ubhar aayi.
"Yahi ki kahi aisa to nahi ki naqaab wala kisi ki madad se hi apne is haadse ko anjaam dene me kamyaab hua hai.?" Vidhi ne ek hi saans me kaha tha.
"Kya matlab.???" Dushyant halke se chaunka.
"Din dahaade itne police walo ke rahte huye aise haadse ko safalta se anjaam dena koi asaan baat nahi hoti." Vidhi ne apne ek ek shabd par zor dete huye kaha______"Ye koi aanan faanan me kiya gaya accident nahi ho sakta, balki iske liye pahle se plan banaya gaya hoga aur plan tabhi banega jab pata ho ki avinash ko us raaste se us time laya jayega. Khud socho ki itna jaldi naqaab wala kaise do do truck accident karne ke liye le aaya.? Iska matlab use sab kuch pahle se hi pata tha aur aisa karne ke liye uske paas plan banane ke liye achha khasa wakt bhi tha. Nazar rakhne bhar se itna kuch wo nahi kar sakta tha dushyant, matlab saaf hai ki use sab kuch kisi aise byakti ne bataya jo tumhare hi police department ka hai."
"Tumhare kahne ka matlab hai." Dushyant ne uski taraf gaur se dekhte huye kaha______"Ki is sabke bare me us naqaab wale ko vikrant ne bataya hai.?"
"Bilkul." Vidhi ne sir hilaate huye kaha______"Tum maano ya na maano magar mujhe us par pura shak hai ki wo us naqaab wale se mila hua hai aur is sab me uska bhi barabar ka haath hai."
"Pata nahi kyo tum us vikrant par itna shak kar rahi ho.?" Dushyant ne maano jhunjhlaate huye kaha_____"Bhala wo aisa kyo karega.? Kya use pata nahi tha ki aisa karne se uski jaan bhi ja sakti thi.?"
"Jaan gayi to nahi na.?" Vidhi ne sapaat lahje me kaha_____"Ye plan banaya hi is tarah se gaya tha ki kisi ki jaan na ja sake. Vikrant bhala ye kyo zaahir karega ki wo kisi se mila hua hai.? Balki sabke sath zakhmi ho kar usne khud ko paak saaf hi darsha diya. Wo to yahi chaahta tha ki tum us par kisi tarah ka shak kar hi na sako."
Vidhi ki baat sun kar dushyant turant kuch na bol saka tha balki ektak uski taraf dekhta rah gaya tha. Wo hairaan tha ki vidhi aisa kaise soch sakti thi.? Uske chehre par aise bhaav the jo uski baat ke sach hone ka thos saboot de rahe the. Dushyant ke mano mastishk me halchal si paida ho gayi thi.
"Ab yu deede faad faad ke kyo dekh rahe ho mujhe.?" Vidhi ne halki muskaan sajate huye chutki baja kar kaha______"Kya bhasham kar dene ka irada hai.?"
"Tum achhi tarah jaanti ho." Dushyant pahle to hadbadaya fir muskurate huye kaha_____"Ki main aisi khwaahish nahi kar sakta. Tumhare bhasham hone se pahle main khud bhasham ho jane ki hasrat rakhta hu."
"Ab ye kya hai.?" Vidhi ke pure jism me jhurjhuri si daud gayi thi.
"Agar nahi samjhi ho to jane do." Dushyant ne kaha.
"Waise kya lagta hai tumhe.?" Vidhi ne uski is baat se apne hotho par ubhar aayi muskaan ko jaldi se dabaate huye kaha______"Wo khoon kiska ho sakta hai.?"
"Kuch kah nahi sakta." Dushyant ne kaha______"Bas dua karo ki wo khoon us naqaab wale ka hi ho."
"Chalo ek pal ke liye maan lete hain ki wo khoon us naqaab wale ka hi hoga." Vidhi ne kaha______"To usse kya hoga.? Kya sirf khoon ke base par tum us tak pahuch jaaoge.?"
Vidhi ke sawaal ka jawaab dene ki jagah dushyant achanak hi kursi se utha aur fir badi tezi se us taraf daud laga di jis taraf seedhiyo ke paas ek mota sa pillar tha. Uski beawaaz ki gayi is harkat se vidhi bhauchakka si rah gayi thi. Wo khud bhi ghabra kar apni kursi se uth baithi thi. Abhi usne uske peechhe jane ke liye apne kadam badhaaye hi the ki tabhi dushyant waapas aa gaya.
"Kya hua.?" Dushyant waapas aa kar jaise hi kursi me baitha to vidhi ne puchha______"Tum is tarah itni tezi se us taraf kyo bhaage the.?"
"Mujhe laga pillar ke peechhe koi hai." Dushyant ne kaha.
"Ye kya kah rahe ho tum.?" Vidhi buri tarah chaunki.
"Haan par shayad wo mera waham tha." Dushyant ne kuch sochte huye jaise khud se hi badbadaya______"Kyo ki pillar ke peechhe to koi nahi tha. Agar hota to jitni tezi se main us taraf gaya tha to zarur koi dikh hi jata mujhe."
"Mujhe samajh me nahi aa raha ki ye tum kya kah rahe ho dushyant.?" Vidhi ne hairat se kaha_____"Bhala waha par koi kaise ho sakta hai.? Waise waha par tumhe kiske hone ki sambhaavna thi.?"
"Pata nahi." Dushyant ne laparwaahi se kaha______"Baat karte karte achanak hi meri nigaah us taraf gayi thi aur tab mujhe laga jaise us pillar ke pichhe koi hai magar jab maine tezi se ja kar us pillar ke peechhe dekha to koi nahi tha. Iska matlab wo mera waham hi tha."
"Tum us accident ki vajah se." Vidhi ne kaha_____"Kuch zyada hi sochne lage ho. Mera khayaal hai ki tumhe araam karna chahiye. Chalo utho jaao apne kamre me aur araam se so jaao. Ham is bare me kal baat karenge."
"I think you are right." Dushyant ne kaha.
"I'm always right." Vidhi ne halki muskaan me kaha______"Chalo ab jaao tum. Main zara bartan dho lu. Uske baad main bhi sone jaaugi."
Vidhi ki is baat se dushyant kursi se utha aur apne kamre ki taraf chala gaya. Jabki vidhi bartan sametne lagi. Uske zahan me dushyant ki waham wali baat chal rahi thi. Uske man me bhi sawaal ubhar rahe the ki kya sach me pillar ke pichhe koi tha.? Agar tha to dushyant ko dikha kyo nahi.? Kya ye sirf dushyant ka waham hi tha ya fir sach me us pillar ke peechhe koi tha.?
"Tum us accident ki vajah se." Vidhi ne kaha_____"Kuch zyada hi sochne lage ho. Mera khayaal hai ki tumhe araam karna chahiye. Chalo utho jaao apne kamre me aur araam se so jaao. Ham is bare me kal baat karenge." "I think you are right." Dushyant ne kaha.
"I'm always right." Vidhi ne halki muskaan me kaha______"Chalo ab jaao tum. Main zara bartan dho lu. Uske baad main bhi sone jaaugi."
Vidhi ki is baat se dushyant kursi se utha aur apne kamre ki taraf chala gaya. Jabki vidhi bartan sametne lagi. Uske zahan me dushyant ki waham wali baat chal rahi thi. Uske man me bhi sawaal ubhar rahe the ki kya sach me pillar ke pichhe koi tha.? Agar tha to dushyant ko dikha kyo nahi.? Kya ye sirf dushyant ka waham hi tha ya fir sach me us pillar ke peechhe koi tha.?
Ab Aage,,,,,
Dusre din dushyant naasta paani karne ke baad sabse pahle apne sarkari flat gaya jaha par usne vikrant se uski tabiyat ke bare me puchha. Vikrant se kuch der usne avinash ke hi sambandh me baat cheet ki magar dushyant ne vikrant se ye nahi bataya ki apraadhiyo ne jis truck se accident ki wardaat ko anjaam diya tha usme se kisi ka khoon bhi saboot ya suraag ke taur par mila tha. Usne is bare me vikrant se is liye nahi bataya kyo ki vidhi ki soch ke anusaar vikrant us naqaab wale se mila hua hai. Halaaki vidhi ko vikrant par sirf shak hi tha naa ki is baat ka koi pramaad tha uske ya dushyant ke paas.
Vikrant se milne ke baad dushyant seedha apne thane chala aaya tha. Dopahar tak kuch khaas nahi hua, dushyant apne cabin me hi files me uljha hua tha. Halaaki uske zahen me forensic report ka khayaal baar baar aata raha tha jiske liye usne forensic doctor ko kayi baar phone bhi laga chuka tha. Doctor ne bataya tha ki dopahar tak report uske paas pahuch jayegi.
Dopahar ke kareeb saadhe baarah baje ek aadmi thaane me aaya aur usne dushyant ko ek lifafa thamaya aur ye kah kar waapas chala gaya ki doctor ne ye report aapko bheji hai. Us aadmi ke jane ke baad dushyant lifafa khol kar report check karne laga. Is wakt uske zahen me ajeeb tarah ki halchal hone lagi thi. Kuch der report ko dekhne ke baad dushyant ek jhatke se apni chair se utha aur table se apni cap utha kar cabin se baahar aa gaya. Baahar aa kar usne apne muh lage hawaldaar bhanu singh ko kuch nirdesh diya aur fir thane se baahar aa gaya.
Apni police gipsy me baitha dushyant badi tezi se doctor sanyaal ke hospital ki taraf badha chala ja raha tha. Kareeb das minute baad usne JCB hospital ke saamne gipsy ko roka aur fir gipsy se utar kar wo badi tezi se hospital ke andar ki taraf badhta chala gaya. Kuch hi der me wo doctor sanyaal ke cabin me pahuch gaya. Doctor sanyaal is wakt apne cabin me hi baitha uska intzaar kar raha tha.
"Mere paas zyada wakt nahi hai dushyant." Dushyant uske saamne wali chair par baitha hi tha ki doctor sanyaal ne usse kaha_____"Mujhe das minute baad ek operation ke liye jana hai. Tumne phone par mujhe rukne ko kaha tha to main tumhare hi intzaar me baitha tha."
"Ye report dekho." Dushyant ne lifafe ko sanyaal ki taraf badhate huye kaha______"Aur mujhe clear bataao ki usme aur isme koi similarity hai ki nahi.?"
"Iski zarurat nahi thi waise." Sanyaal ne kaha_____"Tumne jo sample mujhe bhejwaya tha uski report bhi maine ready kar di hai. Thoda busy tha is liye time se report nahi bana paya tha."
"To fir kya nikla.?" Dushyant ne utaawlepan se puchha.
"Tumhara shak ekdam durust tha." Sanyaal ne kaha______"Tum ne jab phone kiya to main batane hi wala tha magar tumne kaha ki saamne baith kar hi saari baat sunoge. Khair tumhara shak sahi tha, yaani wo jo blood sample tumne mujhe bhejwaya tha uska DNA aur avinash ka DNA aapas me 101% match karta hai. Matlab saaf hai ki un dono ka aapas me khoon ka rishta hai magar...!"
"Magar kya sanyaal.?" Dushyant ke maathe par bal pada.
"Main ye soch kar abhi bhi hairaan hu." Sanyaal ne kaha_____"Ki tumhare dimaag me us blood ke sample se ye baat kaise aayi ki uska DNA avinash ke DNA se match kar sakta hai.? Jabki wo blood kisi dusre ka bhi ho sakta tha."
"Bas tukka lagaya tha dear." Dushyant ne halki muskaan ke sath kaha_____"Ye baat to main bhi samajhta tha ki wo blood zaruri nahi ki us naqaab wale ka hi ho, balki uske kisi sathi ka bhi ho sakta tha magar apne aapko tasalli dena chaahta tha. Jis tarah ki situation thi usse uske khilaaf koi saboot haath nahi lag raha tha aur jab ye blood mila to ek ummid jagi ki ho sakta hai ki ye blood usi ka hi ho. Bas uske baad maine us blood ka ek sample tumhare paas bhi bhejwa diya."
"Tukka hi sahi." Doctor sanyaal muskuraya_____"Magar ye tukka sahi saabit hua. Khair ab tumhe itna to pata chal hi gaya hai ki us naqaab wale ka avinash ke sath blood relation hai to ab kya karoge tum.?"
"Tum is lafde me mat pado pyare." Dushyant ne gahri saans lete huye kaha_____"Balki tum isse door hi raho to behtar hai. Khair shukriya meri jaan itni badi kamyabi mujhe dene ke liye."
"Wo to thik hai." Sanyaal ne kaha______"Magar mujhe is baat se bura laga hai ki tumne ek ladki pata li aur mujhe iske bare me bataya tak nahi."
"Hainnnn tumhe kaise pata.?" Dushyant ne buri tarah chaunkte huye kaha.
"Apni police jeep me baitha kar ghumate ho use." Sanyaal ne aankhe dikhaate huye kaha_____"Sari duniya dekhti hai to kya meri nazar na padi hogi.? Mujhe is baat se taklif nahi huyi ki tumne ladki pataayi balki ye to khushi ki baat thi magar takleef is baat se huyi ki tumne is bare me mujhe bataya tak nahi. Kya yahi dosti hai tumhari.?"
"Aree wo sirf meri dost hai pyare." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Isse zyada kuch bhi nahi hai hamare beech."
"Ye baat tum kisi aur ko batana." Sanyaal ne kaha______"Main tumhe achhi tarah jaanta hu. Tumne aaj tak kabhi kisi ladki ko is tarah apni jeep me nahi ghumaya to ab bhala use kis haisiyat se ghuma rahe hoge.? Khair chhodo main ja raha hu ab."
"Naraaz kyo hote ho pyare.?" Dushyant ne chair se uthte huye kaha_____"Abhi to wo sirf dost hai, jis din mashuka banegi us din tumhe hi bas kya balki saari duniya ko bataauga uske bare me."
"Iska matlab." Sanyaal ne kaha_____"Tumhe waisi ladki mil gayi hai jaisi ladki ke tum khwaab dekhte the. Agar aisa hai to fir ye bahut hi achhi baat hai. Ab jaldi se use meri bhabhi banane ki taiyaari shuru karo. Tumhari shadi me jam ke naachna hai mujhe."
Doctor sanyaal ki is baat par dushyant muskurata hua cabin se baahar nikal gaya. Hospital se baahar aa kar dushyant apni gispy me baitha aur use start kar vidhi ke ghar ki taraf badha diya. Uske zahen me kayi saari baate ekdam se chalne lagi thi.
Inspector dushyant ki gipsy vidhi ke ghar pahuchi. Vidhi ke ghar me special police wale security ke liye lage huye the. Dushyant ka shakht hukum tha ki is ghar ke aas paas koi bhi sandigdh praani nazar aaye to use fauran hiraasat me le liya jaye. Khair gipsy se utar kar dushyant ghar ke andar chala gaya.
Vidhi apne kamre me thi aur bed par lete lete wo ved prakash sharma ka upanyaas "Door Ki Kaudi" padh rahi thi. Darwaje par jab teesri baar thak thak ki awaaz huyi tab ja kar uska dhyaan bhang hua. Thak thak ki awaaz sun kar usne bed par lete lete hi puchha kaun hai.? Darwaze ke baahar se jab dushyant ki awaaz aayi tab wo jaldi se uthi aur fir ja kar usne darwaza khola.
"Kya so rahi thi tum.?" Darwaza khulte hi dushyant ne vidhi se kaha_____"Kahi maine tumhe disturb to nahi kar diya.?"
"Nahi aisi koi baat nahi hai." Vidhi ne kaha______"Asal me main novel padhne me mashgool thi is liye dhyaan hi nahi gaya ki koi kamre ke darwaze par khada dastak de raha hai."
"Ohh to tum novel bhi padhti ho.?" Dushyant ne darwaze ke andar aate huye kaha______"Kafi interesting shauk hai tumhara."
"Free time me novel hi padhti hu." Vidhi ne kaha______"Ved prakash sharma ji ke novel." Kahne ke sath hi vidhi ne bed par aundhe muh rakhe novel ko utha kar dushyant ko dikhaya.
"Door Ki Kaudi." Dushyant ne novel ke cover par likhe huye naam ko padhte huye kaha______"Title kafi dilchashp hai iska."
"Sirf title hi nahi." Vidhi ne muskurate huye kaha_____"Balki iske andar maujood kathanak bhi kaafi dilchashp hai. Isi liye to ise padhne me itni mashgool thi ki tumhare dwara di gayi dastak se mera dhyaan bhang hi nahi hua tha."
"Khair." Dushyant ne novel ko bed par rakhte huye kaha_____"Ye bataao lunch kar liya tumne.?"
"Tumhara intzaar kar rahi thi." Vidhi ne kaha______"Pahle to socha ki lunch kar lu magar fir khayaal aaya ki mera ek dost bhi hai jo shayad bhukha hoga. Is liye tumhare aane ka wait karne ka socha aur time pass ke liye novel padhne lagi."
"Kya baat hai." Dushyant halke se muskuraya_____"Mera itna zyada khayaal kar rahi ho tum. Kahi main koi khwaab to nahi dekh raha.?"
"Itna zyada mat socho." Vidhi ne bura sa muh banate huye kaha_____"Aur chup chaap fresh hone jaao. Main tab tak lunch lagati hu table par aur haan ek baat aur bata du ki wakeel uncle ne phone kiya tha mujhe. Kal bulaya hai unhone mujhe."
"Ohh to kya irada hai.?" Dushyant ne puchha.
"Maine unhe yahi par bula liya hai." Vidhi ne kaha_____"Aisi situation me bhala main unke paas kaise ja sakti hu.? Is liye unhe yahi aane ka bol diya hai maine. Kal wo morning me nau baje tak aayege."
"Chalo thik hai." Dushyant ne kaha______"Unhe yaha bula kar achha kiya tumne. Waise mere sath rah kar kafi samajhdaar ho gayi ho tum."
"Achha ji.???" Vidhi khilkhila kar has padi fir boli______"Kal raat ki baat bada jaldi bhool gaye jab us naqaab wale ke dwara kiye gaye us accident ke chalte hataash ho kar ye kah rahe the ki 'Galti meri hi hai...mujhe avinash ke maamle me interest lena hi nahi chahiye tha.' Us wakt kisne gyaan diya tha tumhe zara bataao to."
"Wo to main tumhe apni lajawaab acting ka ek chhota sa namuna dikha raha tha." Dushyant ne garv se apna seena chauda karte huye kaha______"Main dekhna chaahta tha ki tum meri us acting par kaisa react karti ho aur us bare me kya kahti ho mujhse."
"Agar wo tumhari acting hi thi." Vidhi ne kaha______"To tumhe ye jaan kar badi nirasha ho sakti hai ki bahut hi flop kism ke actor ho tum. Ab ye acting vacting karna chhodo aur jaao fresh hone. Bade aaye acting ka namuna dikhane wale....rondu kahi ke."
Vidhi ne kaha aur fir jaise pair patakte huye kamre se baahar nikal gayi, jabki dushyant moorkho ki tarah apni palke jhapkata rah gaya. Vidhi ke jane ke kuch der baad dushyant bhi washroom chala gaya. Uske baad dono ne ek sath hi baith kar lunch kiya. Lunch ke dauraan dono ke beech halki fulki baat cheet huyi uske baad dushyant vidhi ko apna khayaal rakhne ka kah kar thaane chala gaya. Usne vidhi ko us blood ke DNA ke bare me filhaal kuch nahi bataya tha.
<>•<>•<>
Us wakt dopahar ke do baj rahe the jab saundarya ne us shakhs ko hilaate huye jagaya tha jo uske sath hi bagal me leta hua so raha tha. Dono bed par nange hi lete huye the. Saundarya ka sangmarmari jism khidki par lage parde ki jhiri se aa rahi roshni me gazab ka chamak raha tha. Uski badi badi chhaatiya jo ki zara bhi lachki huyi nahi thi wo uske dwara shakhs ko hilaye jane se uchhal jati thi. Aakhir uske hilane par us shakhs ki neend tooti aur usne bura sa muh banate huye aur apni aankho ko machmachaate huye uski taraf dekha.
"Tumhara mobile phone baj raha hai." Saundarya ne uneedi si awaaz me kaha______"Jaa ke dekho to kaun hai."
"Aree yaar." Shakhs ne alsaaye huye kaha______"Is wakt kaun mar gaya.?"
Kahne ke sath hi wo shakhs bed se neeche utra. Uske jism par kapde ka ek katra tak nahi tha. Kamre ki diwaar par lagi keel par uska paint tanga hua tha jiski pocket me uska mobile baj raha tha. Abhi wo paint ke paas pahucha hi tha ki mobile ka bajna band ho gaya. Shakhs ne paint ki pocket se mobile nikala aur fir uski screen ko jala kar aayi huyi call ko dekha. Abhi wo dekh hi raha tha ki fir se mobile par call aa gayi. Mobile ki screen par flash kar rahe naam ko dekh kar uske chehre par sochne ke bhaav ubhre aur fir usne call receive kar ke mobile kaan se laga liya.
"Haan bolo." Fir usne rookhe huye bhaav se kaha_____"Is wakt kis liye phone kiya hai mujhe.? Sab kuch thik to hai na.?"
"Kya tumhe chot lagi thi.?" Udhar se puchha gaya.
"Chot..????" Shakhs ke chehre par chaunkne ke bhaav ubhar aaye, bola______"Kyo puchh rahe ho.?"
"Inspector ko us truck ke gate par khoon laga hua mila tha." Udhar se kaha gaya______"Mujhe laga agar wo khoon tumhara hai to yakeenan tumhe chot lagi hogi. Khair us khoon ke milne se inspector kya karega ye to samajh hi gaye hoge na tum.?"
"Haan samajhta hu." Shakhs ne kaha_____"Khair tum bataao ki inspector us accident ke baad ab kya kar raha hai.?"
"Mujhe abhi ka zyada kuch pata nahi hai." Udhar se kaha gaya______"Magar itna janta hu ki us khoon ke sample se wo pata karne ki puri koshish karega ki wo khoon kiska ho sakta hai.?"
"Kuch nahi kar payega wo." Shakhs ne sapaat lahje me kaha______"Khair chhodo tum apni bataao tumhe zyada chot to nahi aayi thi na.?"
"Aisa kaise ho sakta hai ki accident ho aur kisi ko chot hi na lage.?" Udhar se hasti huyi awaaz aayi______"Chot to yakeenan aayi hai janaab magar chot to lagni hi thi. Fir chaahe thodi lage ya fir zyada. Khair kuch dino me thik ho jaauga magar mujhe bas ek hi baat ki fikar hai ki inspector ko ye shak na ho jaye ki uske department ka koi shakhs tumse mila hua hai. Agar aisa hua to yakeenan ye mere liye achha nahi hoga aur haan tumhare liye bhi."
"Us namuraad ki kya situation hai.?" Shakhs ne pucha.
"Uska ek haath toot gaya tha us accident me." Udhar se bataya gaya_____"Is liye uske hath me doctor ne plaster chadha diya hai. Filhaal to inspector ne use apni mashuka ke alishaan ghar me puri security ke sath rakha hua hai. Suna hai waha ki security ke liye inspector ne aise police walo ko tainaat kiya hua hai jinhe special training mili huyi hai. Kahne ka matlab ye ki tumhara us ghar ke andar ghusna namumkin hi nahi balki asambhav hai."
"Duniya me koi bhi kaam asambhav nahi hota." Shakhs ne sapaat lahje me kaha_____"Aur namumkin ko mumkin banana mujhe achhi tarah aata hai. Khair ye bataao ki kya is accident se us kambakht ki yaad daast waapas aa gayi hogi.?"
"Is bare me main kuch kah nahi sakta." Udhar se uljhan bhara swar ubhra______"Agar aa bhi gayi hogi to kya wo batayega ki uski yaad daast waapas aa gayi hai.? Mera khayaal hai ki nahi batayega kyo ki sab kuch yaad aate hi wo chup chaap apne kisi bhi kaam ko anjaam dene ke bare me sochega."
"Baat to pate ki hai tumhari." Shakhs ne kuch sochte huye kaha_____"Aur iska matlab ye bhi hua ki ab usse satark rahne ki zarurat hai. Waise jab tak uska haath sahi nahi ho jata tab tak mere khayaal se wo kuch bhi nahi karega. Halaaki us jaise shaatir par bharosa karna bhi avval darze ki bevkufi hi hogi. Khair chhodo is baat ko tum pata karne ki koshish karna ki uski situation kya hai."
"Mere liye ye mumkin nahi hai." Udhar se kaha gaya_____"Kyo ki wo inspector ki protection me hai. Mere kahne ka matlab hai ki inspector ne uske protection ke liye aise police walo ko rakha hai jinhe special training mili huyi hai. Tum samajh sakte ho ki unke rahte mumkin hai ki inspector mujhe waha rakhne ka na soche. Dusri baat mujhe chot lagi hai is liye filhaal main kahi aa ja nahi sakta."
"Iska matlab ye hua." Shakhs ne kaha______"Ki tum waha ki koi information mujhe nahi de sakte ho."
"Maujuda situation me waha ki information dena mere liye mushkil hai." Udhar se kaha gaya______"Magar fir bhi main koshish karuga ki tumhare liye waha ki zaruri information nikaal saku."
"Agar kar sako to behtar hi hoga." Shakhs ne kuch sochte huye kaha______"Warna mujhe koi dusra raasta talaash karna padega iske liye. Tum samajh sakte ho ki maujuda situation pahle ki situation se kafi zyada badal gayi hai. Inspector ne agar zyada dimaag lagaya to mere liye pareshani ho jayegi aur dusri taraf agar us namuraad ki yaad daast waapas aa gayi hogi tab bhi problem ho jayegi. Mere liye ye jaanna behad zaruri hai ki is accident se us par kya asar hua hai.?"
"Tum fikar mat karo." Udhar se kaha gaya_____"Main pata karne ki koshish karuga."
"Jitna jaldi pata kar sako utna behtar hoga." Shakhs ne kaha aur udhar ki baat sunne ke baad thik hai kah kar call cut kar diya.
Us shakhs ke chehre par aise bhaav ubhar aaye the jaise behad tanaav me aa gaya ho. Wahi bed par leti huyi saundarya usi ki taraf dekh rahi thi. Usne uski saari baate suni thi jiska asar ye hua tha ki uski aankho se bhi neend gayab ho gayi thi.
"Kya hua.?" Fir usne us shakhs ka dhyaan apni taraf aakarshit karte huye kaha_____"Koi pareshani wali baat ho gayi hai kya.?"
"Pareshani wali baat to ek din honi hi thi." Us shakhs ne gambheer bhaav se kaha______"Magar ye pareshani us pareshani se badh kar hogi jo maine sochi thi. Iska kaaran ye hai ki is maamle me police bhi involve ho chuki hai. Jabki main aisa nahi chaahta tha. Maine us haramzade ko isi liye police se door rahne ki warning di thi magar wo kambakht dusri jagah rahne gaya hi nahi. Samajh me nahi aata ki kya zarurat thi us inspector ko is maamle me padne ki.?"
"Maine to pahle hi kaha tha tumse." Saundarya ne kaha_____"Ki jis tarah se tum har dusre maheene use aise jurm me fasa kar police se pakadwate the uska kisi na kisi din ye anjaam hoga hi. Aakhir koi na koi police wala ye to sochega hi ki ek insaan har baar kaise ek hi jurm me fasta hai aur fir police ki itni maar jhelne ke baad bhi yahi kahta hai ki usne waisa koi jurm kiya hi nahi hai jis tarah ke jurm me use uske makaan maalik ne pakdaya hai. Tumhe har baar ek hi tareeka nahi apnana chahiye tha babu. Har police wala nikamma nahi hota, balki kuch log nihaayat hi kaaiya kism ke hote hain jo bewajah bematlab ke lafde me apna dimaag laga baithte hain."
"Haan galti to huyi hai mujhse." Shakhs ne shakhti se apne hotho ko bheechte huye kaha______"Magar ab jo hona tha wo to ho hi chuka hai. Is liye is bare me soch kar mood kharaab karne se koi faayda nahi hai. Hame ab ye sochna hai ki jo kuch hamne socha tha wo kaise ho.? Police ki involvement se hamara kaam bigad jayega. Wo kambakht police ki protection me hai aur is haadse ke baad yakeenan wo inspector behad chaukanna bhi ho gaya hoga. Ab wo inspector use baahar nikaalne ki galti nahi karega. Ye hamare liye sabse badi problem khadi ho gayi hai. Hame ye jaanna behad zaruri hai ki is accident se us par kya asar hua hai.?"
"Dhairya se kaam lo mere sona." Saundarya ne bade pyaar se kaha______"Us police wale ne phone par kaha to hai na ki wo is bare me pata kar ke batayega."
"Mere paas itna wakt nahi hai saundarya." Shakhs ne bechain lahje me kaha______"Maan lo agar uski yaad daast aa gayi hai aur wo ye zaahir hi na hone de ki uski yaad daast waapas aa gayi hai to socho kya hoga.? Wo chup chaap apne wo sare kaam kar guzrega aur hame iski bhanak tak nahi lagegi. Itne wakt se ham jis cheez ke liye uska intzaar karte aa rahe hain wo sab kuch barbaad ho jayega dear."
"Aise kaise barbaad ho jayega.?" Saundarya ke chehre par ekdam se kathorta ubhar aayi, boli_____"Maana ki wo bahut shaatir hai magar mat bhoolo ki uski bhi ek kamzori hamare paas hai aur jab tak uski wo kamzori hamare paas hai tab tak wo zyada kuch nahi kar payega. Is liye itna zyada tension mat lo."
Aakhir saundarya ke samjhane se kuch hi der me us shakhs ke chehre par chhaya hua tanaav kafoor ho gaya. Us shakhs ke chehre par raahat ke bhaav nazar aaye aur wo aage badh kar bed me ja baitha. Dono maadarjaat nange the. Bed par aate hi shakhs ne saundarya ke sundar se chehre ko apni hatheliyo me liya aur fir jhuk kar uske surkh hotho ko apne hotho ke beech daba liya. Uske aisa karte hi saundarya ne apni dono gudaaj baahe uske gale me daal di aur khud bhi chumban me uska bharpoor sath dene lagi.
"Aise kaise barbaad ho jayega.?" Saundarya ke chehre par ekdam se kathorta ubhar aayi, boli_____"Maana ki wo bahut shaatir hai magar mat bhoolo ki uski bhi ek kamzori hamare paas hai aur jab tak uski wo kamzori hamare paas hai tab tak wo zyada kuch nahi kar payega. Is liye itna zyada tension mat lo."
Aakhir saundarya ke samjhane se kuch hi der me us shakhs ke chehre par chhaya hua tanaav kafoor ho gaya. Us shakhs ke chehre par raahat ke bhaav nazar aaye aur wo aage badh kar bed me ja baitha. Dono maadarjaat nange the. Bed par aate hi shakhs ne saundarya ke sundar se chehre ko apni hatheliyo me liya aur fir jhuk kar uske surkh hotho ko apne hotho ke beech daba liya.

Ab Aage,,,,,
Dushyant aur vidhi lunch kar ke fursat hi huye the ki sahsa tabhi dring room me rakhe land line phone ki ghanti baji. Phone ki ghanti bajne se dushyant aur vidhi ne ek dusre ki taraf dekha fir dushyant utha aur ja kar phone ke receiver ko utha kar kaan se lagaya. Udhar se uske kaano me jane kya kaha gaya jiske jawaab me dushyant ne ye kah kar phone ka receiver waapas rakh diya ki thik hai andar bhej do.
"Kiska phone tha.?" Dushyant jab waapas aaya to vidhi ne usse puchha.
"Baahar security me tainaat special police ke ek officer ka call tha." Dudhyant ne jawaab me kaha_____"Kah raha tha ki sub-inspector vikrant andar aa kar mujhse milna chaahta hai."
"Vikrant..???" Vidhi ke maathe par shikan ubhri______"Wo bhala tumse kyo milna chaahta hoga.? Kya uski tabiyat ab thik ho gayi hai.?"
"Itna zyada serious nahi tha wo." Inspector dushyant ne sapaat bhaav se kaha______"Chot lagi thi jin par marham patti laga di gayi thi. Ab to do din guzar gaye hain. Kuch araam mahsoos kiya hoga usne is liye sochta hoga ki faaltu me bistar par kyo pada rahe."
"Kya tumne use bata diya hai.?" Vidhi ne shashank bhaav se kaha______"Ki jo blood tumhe us truck se mila tha uski DNA report se hame kya pata chala hai.?"
"Nahi, maine is bare me use kuch nahi bataya." Dushyant ne kaha______"Tumhari tarah itna to main bhi samajh chuka hu ki is maamle me mere department ka koi police wala yakeenan us naqaab wale se mila hua hai warna itni gupt se gupt baate use hamare me kaise pata ho sakti hain jinke base par wo har baar police se saaf bach nikalta hai.? Tumhara shak vikrant par hai jo ki sach bhi ho sakta hai isi liye maine is bare me use kuch nahi bataya. Waise mujhe to abhi bhi yakeen nahi hai ki naqaab wale ko har baat ki suchna dene wala vikrant hi hoga."
Lunch ke dauraan inspector dushyant ne vidhi ko DNA report ke bare me sab kuch bata diya tha. Jise sun kar vidhi ko badi hairaani huyi thi ki avinash aur us naqaab wale ka aapas me blood relation hai. Is baat se un dono ke zahen me kuch baate saaf ho gayi thi. Jaise ki avinash aur naqaab wale ke bich ki dushmani ya to family reasons ki vajah se thi ya fir shayad property ki vajah se. Ab sabse badi sochne wali baat ye thi ki agar avinash aur us naqaab wale me blood relation hai to ye dono waastav me hain kaun aur inki family kaha hai.? Is sawaal ka jawaab tabhi mil sakta tha jab ya to wo naqaab wala police dwara pakad me aa jaye ya fir avinash ko apne past ke bare me sab kuch yaad aa jaye. Yaani avinash khud hi bata sakta hai ki uske sath ye sab kis vajah se aur kaun kar raha hai.?
Abhi ye dono baate hi kar rahe the ki tabhi door bell baji. Dushyant sofe se utha aur ja kar darwaza khola. Saamne sub inspector vikrant khada tha. Dushyant ko dekhte hi usne salute kiya jiska jawaab dushyant ne sir ko halka sa kham kar ke diya aur fir use andar aane ka ishara kiya. Vikrant andar aaya to dushyant ne darwaza band kiya aur fir wo dono dring room me aa gaye.
"Tumhe abhi araam karna chahiye tha pyare." Dushyant ne apne chir parichit andaaz me muskurate huye kaha______"Abhi tumhara is tarah se sair sapata karna thik nahi hai."
"Main itna serious nahi hu sir." Vikrant ne kaha_____"Ki mujhe bed par hi pade rahna pade. Maine to aapse us din bhi kaha tha ki main thik hu aur apni duty araam se kar sakta hu but aap hi nahi maane the."
"Hamne to tumhari bhalaayi ke liye hi tumhe araam karne ke liye kaha tha." Dushyant ne kaha______"Waise bhi special trained police officers ke rahte tumhe kisi tarah ka kast dene ki zarurat bhi nahi thi. Khair chhodo is baat ko aur ye bataao ki yaha kaise aana hua tumhara.? Subah to ham aaye the na tumse milne.?"
"Kamre me pade pade bor ho raha tha sir." Vikrant ne santulit lahje me kaha______"Aapke kahne se maine bahut bed rest kar liya, is liye ab chaahta hu ki waapas apni duty par aa jaau aur avinash ke maamle ko aapke sath khatam karu. Waise kya koi suraag mila sir jisse ham us naqaab wale tak pahuch sake.?"
"Ghatna isthal ke aas paas rahne walo se puchtaanch ki thi hamne." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Puchtaanch me kuch logo ne ye to bataya ki unhone us din kuch ajnabi logo ko alag alag disha me bhaagte huye dekha tha magar wo log unka chehra nahi dekh paye. Khair jin trucko se us accident ko anjaam diya gaya tha wo truck bhi hame ek km ki doori par khade mil gaye the. Apraadhi apna kaam kar ke dono trucko ko chhod diya tha aur khud champat ho gaye the. Un trucko se hame aur to kuch nahi mila lekin haan ek truck ke gate par hame khoon laga hua zarur mila jo shayad un apradhiyo me se hi kisi ka tha. Hamne us khoon ke sample ko forensic jaanch me bheja tha jiski report me hame sirf yahi pata chala ki wo blood kisi male person ka hi hai jiska blood group Ab- hai."
"Ohh." Vikrant ne gahri saans li fir bola______"Is blood sample se ham kaise pata lagayenge sir ki apradhi kaun hai.? Waise sir ham apne criminal data base se pata kar sakte hain uske bare me."
"Haan lekin ye tabhi mumkin hai pyare." Dushyant ne kaha______"Jab hamare ciriminal data base me aisa koi apradhi pahle se add kiya gaya ho. Agar ye koi naya apradhi hai jiska ki koi criminal record hi nahi hai to fir uske bare me pata lagana mushkil hi hai. Ye blood sample fir hamare liye koi maayne nahi rakhega. Us naqaab wale tak pahuchne ke liye hamare paas koi aisa saboot ya suraag hona chahiye jisse ki hame us tak pahuchne me kuch to asaani ho."
"I have an idea sir." Vikrant ne kaha.
"Idea.??" Dushyant ke maathe par bal pada______"Kaisa idea pyare.???"
"Kyo na ham us blood ke sath sath." Vikrant ne joshile bhaav se kaha______"Avinash ke blood ki bhi jaanch karwaye. Mumkin hai ki isse koi aisi baat samne aa jaye jiski hamne kalpana bhi na ki ho iske pahle aur sath hi hame us naqaab wale tak pahuchne ka koi suraag mil jaye."
"Avinash ke khoon ke sath." Dushyant ne kaha______"Us khoon ki jaanch karwane se tumhara matlab kahi ye to nahi ki tum ye samajhte ho ki in dono ka aapas me koi blood relation jaisa chakkar hai.?"
"Right sir." Vikrant muskuraya______"Halaaki mera aisa sochna galat bhi ho sakta hai magar check karwane me kya jata hai sir.? Ho sakta hai ki asal me yahi baat ho."
"Kamaal hai pyare." Dushyant ne muskurate huye kaha______"Tumhara dimaag bhi bilkul hamari tarah chalne laga hai."
Main kuch samjha nahi sir.??" Vikrant jaise chakra sa gaya tha.
"Matlab ko to hamne tel lene bhej diya hai pyare." Dushyant ne kaha______"Uski jagah ham hi matlab samjhate hain. Asal me jo baat is wakt tum soch kar hamse kah rahe ho wahi baat hamare zahen me bhi aayi thi aur jab ye baat hamare zahen me aayi to yakeen maano hamne us baat ki jaanch karwane me zara bhi deri nahi ki."
"Mujhe abhi bhi aapki baat ka matlab samajh me nahi aaya sir." Vikrant ne uljhan poorn bhaav se kaha.
"Aksar aisa hi hota hai my dear." Dushyant ne ajeeb bhaav se jaise apna dukh prakat karte huye kaha______"Ham logo se aisi hi baate kar jate hain aur unhe hamari baato ka matlab samajh me nahi aata. Sab ke sab koodh magaj jo hote hain. Khair chhodo, hamari baato ka matlab ye tha ki hamare bhi dimaag me ye vichaar aaya ki jo blood hame us truck se mila tha use ham avinash ke blood ke sath hi jaanch karwaye. Aisa is liye kyo ki hame lagta tha ki in dono vichitra praaniyo ka aapas me zarur koi gahra sambandh ho sakta hai. Yaani ho sakta hai ki ye dono pichhle saath janmo ke premi ho. Bas fir kya tha hamne dono ke blood ki jaanch karwa daali magar hamare armaano par us wakt sau baalti paani pir gaya jab hamne jaanch wali us report ko apni aankhe faad faad kar dekha. Kasam se pyare us report ko dekhne ke baad hame aisa laga ki hame kahi se chullu bhar paani mil jaye aur ham usme doob kar mar jaye. Kyo ki us report me saaf saaf likha tha ki un dono ke blood se ye baat saamne aayi hai ki wo dono pichhle saat janmo ke premi nahi the."
"Ohh iska matlab" Vikrant ne gahri saans li______"Wo naqaab wala avinash ke apne relation ka nahi hai balki koi aur hi hai jisse uski kuch is tarah dushmani hai ki wo use jaan se maarne ki kayi baar koshish kar chuka hai magar sir agar aisa hai to fir us naqaab wale ki avinash se aisi kya dushmani ho sakti hai.? Dusri baat ham kaise pata laga sakenge ki wo naqaab wala kaun hai.? Avinash ki yaad daast aa jati to ye saari problems hi door ho jati."
"Bas dua karo pyare." Dushyant ne kaha______"Ki uski yaad daast jald se jald waapas aa jaye. Ham khud bhi uske is lafde se pak gaye hain. Upar se khaaj me foda ye ki naqaab wale ke dwara kiye gaye accident se hamare department ke jo police wale marte marte bache the usse alla adhikariyo ko bhi mirgi ka daura pad chuka hai. Tum samajh sakte ho ki aisi situation me ham par kis tarah ki aafat aa gayi hai."
"I can understand sir." Vikrant ne kaha______"Ab mere liye kya aadesh hai sir.?"
"Agar tumhe lagta hai pyare ki tum ab fit ho." Dushyant ne kaha______"To thane ja kar apni duty samhaalo. Yaha ka maamla ab ham hi dekhenge. After all hame bhi department me apni doobti huyi ijjat ko bachana hai."
"Ok sir." Vikrant ne kaha aur sofe se uth khada hua. Uske baad dushyant ko salute bajane ke baad wo baahar ki taraf chal diya.
"Ye kis lahje me baat kar rahe the tum usse.?" Vikrant ke jane ke baad darwaza band karke jab dushyant waapas aaya to vidhi ne usse kaha______"Aur tumne use blood ke bare me wo sab kyo bataya.?"
"Tumhare alawa." Dushyant ne halki muskaan ke sath kaha______"Baaki har kisi se baat karne ka apna yahi style hai. Rahi baat use blood ke bare me wo sab batane ki to wo zaruri tha. Maan lo agar wo naqaab wale se mila hua hai to use ab tak naqaab wale se blood wali ye baat pata chal hi gayi hogi. Ho sakta hai ki wo yaha mere paas yahi jaanne aaya raha ho ki mujhe un trucko me se kisi ek truck se apraadhiyo me se kisi ka khoon mila hai ya nahi aur agar mila hai to maine us khoon ki jaanch karwaayi ya nahi.? Jaanch ke baad us khoon ki kya report aayi aur ab main uske bare me kis nateeje par pahucha hu.? Ye sab agar main use na batata to wo samajh jata ki main use is bare me is liye nahi bata raha kyo ki mujhe us par is baat ka shak ho gaya hai ki wo naqaab wale se mila hua hai. Main bhala uske zahen me ye baat kyo daalta ki mujhe uski hakikat pata chal chuki hai. Halaaki wo naqaab wale se mila hua hai is baat ka koi pramaad nahi hai, fir bhi agar us par shak hai to use itna to batana hi padega taaki uske man me kisi tarah ki baat na aaye."
"Ohh i see." Vidhi ne kaha______"Magar fir tumne jhooth bhi to bola usse. Yaani usse ye kaha ki avinash aur naqaab wale ke jis khoon ki tumne jaanch karwaayi uski report me un dono ka aapas me koi blood relation nahi hai jabki sach yahi hai ki un dono ka blood relation hai."
"Use utna hi bataya jitne se usko ye yakeen aaye ki maine use sach bataya aur mujhe us par shak nahi hai." Dushyant ne usi muskaan ke sath kaha_____"Aur blood relation ke bare me jhooth is liye bola taaki wo aur uska wo naqaab wala dost is khushfahmi me rahe ki unhone ek baar fir se lamba teer maar liya hai aur unke khilaaf mere haath koi saboot ya suraag nahi lag saka hai. Is khushfahmi se wo befikar ho jayenge aur unki ye befikri kahi na kahi police ke liye faaydemand zarur ho sakti hai."
"Waah kya baat hai." Vidhi ke hotho par muskaan ubhar aayi, boli______"Itna sharp mind. Aakhir mere sath rahne ka aur meri salaah lene ka tum par asar ho hi gaya."
"Tumhara to pura asar mujh par ho gaya hai." Dushyant ne sahsa aah bharte huye kaha______"Magar tum par mera koi asar hua hai aisa mujhe nazar nahi aaya. Khair koi baat nahi."
"Aisa sochoge to nazar aayega bhi nahi." Vidhi ne aankhe dikhate huye kaha______"Khair ab ye bataao ki aage kya karne wale ho.? Mera matlab hai ki avinash ka DNA us naqaab wale ke DNA se match khata hai jisse pata chal chuka hai ki dono ka aapas me blood relation hai to ab tum ye kaise pata lagaaoge ki naqaab wala kaun hai aur wo avinash ke sath aisa kyo kar raha hai.?"
"Yahi to problem hai vidhi." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Ki itna kuch hone ke baad bhi main na to us naqaab wale tak pahuch sakta hu aur na hi ye jaan sakta hu ki aakhir ye sab ho kyo raha hai.? Naqaab wala to yahi chahega ki wo police ki pakad me na aaye magar jisse ummid hai usi se kuch haasil nahi ho raha. Duniya me yaad daast to aur bhi logo ki chali jati hai magar aisa bahut hi kam hota hai ki kisi ki koi pahchaan hi na mile. Is maamle me yahi ek samasya hai ki avinash ke finger prints se bhi uske bare me kuch pata nahi chal pa raha jo ki sabse zyada hairaani ki baat hai aur usse bhi zyada hairaani ki baat ye hai ki news channels ke dwara bhi uske bare me kuch pata nahi chal saka. Aisa kaise ho sakta hai ki is duniya me koi aisa na ho jo uska apna ho aur uske bare me jaanta na ho.? Khair, Is case me tabhi kuch ho sakta hai jab ya to wo naqaab wala hamare haath lag jaye ya fir avinash ki yaad daast waapas aa jaye, warna to kuch nahi ho sakta."
"Waakayi ye badi hairat ki baat hai." Vidhi ne lambi saans kheenchte huye kaha_____"Khair is baat se itna zyada hataash aur niraash na ho. Aaj nahi to kal zarur is maamle me progress hogi aur wo sab bhi pata chal jayega jiske bare me aaj hame kuch pata nahi chal pa raha. Waise kya aisa nahi ho sakta ki is accident se avinash ki yaad daast waapas aa gayi ho.? Aakhir uske sir me bhi chot lagi thi. Aise cases me zyadatar aisa hota hai ki sir me agar sahi jagah par chot lage to insaan ki yaad daast me asar padta hai aur wo waapas aa jati hai. Sab kuch bhale hi yaad na aaye magar thodi bahut baate to zahen me flash hone hi lagti hain. Kya tumhe aisa nahi lagta.?"
"Baat to tumhari thik hai vidhi." Dushyant ne kaha______"Aisa ho bhi sakta hai magar ek sawaal ye bhi hai ki agar avinash ki memory waapas aa gayi hai to kya wo hame batayega is bare me.?"
"Kyo nahi batayega wo.?" Vidhi ne kaha______"Bhala is bare me wo tumse kyo nahi batana chahega.? Itna to use bhi gyaat hai ki tum uski help kar rahe ho har tarah se."
"Seedhi si baat hai dost." Dushyant ne kaha______"Jo kuch uske sath wo naqaab wala kar raha hai usse saaf hai ki avinash ne bhi apne past me us naqaab wale ke sath kuch bura kiya hoga. Is liye jab use apne past ka sab kuch yaad aa jayega to mumkin hai ki ek police wale ko apne past ke bare me na bata kar khud hi is maamle ko handle kare. Ho sakta hai ki wo apne past me koi apraadhi raha ho aur jab ye baat use yaad aayegi to wo yakeenan police ko apne bare me kuch nahi batayega aur jald se jald yaha se bhaagne ki koshish karega."
"Har sikke ke do pahlu hote hain dear friend." Vidhi ne jaise tark karte huye kaha_____"Ek pahlu ke bare me tumne apne vichaar avinash ke bare me rakh diye hain, jabki iska dusra pahlu iske vipreet wala bhi ho sakta hai. Yaani ho sakta hai ki avinash apne past me ek nihaayat hi shareef byakti raha ho aur kisi majburi ke tahat ya fir anjaane me uske dwara us naqaab wale ke sath kuch bura ho gaya ho. Jiska parinaam use is roop me mila. Usne apni kahani me bataya tha na ki jab use pahli baar hosh aaya tha tab wo lahu luhaan haalat me kisi aisi jagah par pada tha jaha aas paas pahaad the aur khadaane thi. To kya aisa nahi ho sakta ki us naqaab wale ne use apne raaste se hatane ke liye us wakt use jaan se maarna chaha ho.? Ab ye to uski achhi kismat thi jo wo bach gaya tha. Ye alag baat hai ki us haadse ke chalte use apni yaad daast gawaani padi aur memory loss hone ke baad dar dar ki thokre bhi khani padi."
"Beshak aisa bhi ho sakta hai." Dushyant ne jaise tahe dil se swikaar kiya_____"Magar ye mahaj sambhaavnaye hain. Hakikat kya hai ye to tabhi pata chalega jab ya to wo naqaab wala pakad me aaye ya fir avinash ki yaad daast waapas aaye aur wo hame khud sab kuch bataye. Filhaal apne paas is maamle me aage badhne ka koi raasta nahi hai."

Raat ka waqt!
Kamre me chaaro taraf bijli ki aisi jhaalare lagi huyi thi jo alag alag rang ki roshni karti huyi lap lup lap lup kar rahi thi. Ye waisi hi jhaalare thi jo aksar log ya to diwaali ke tyohaar par ya fir shaadi ke din log apne gharo ko sajane aur uski sundarta ko badhane me lagaya karte hain. Un jhaalaro se alag alag rang ke chhote chhote bulb jal bujh rahe the jisse kamra jagmag jagmag kar raha tha. Pure kamre me unhi jhaalaro ki roshni thi. Kamre ke theek bicho beech ek suhaag sej thi jis par ek nau vivaahit dulhan solah sringaar kiye huye aur laal surkh jode me baithi huyi thi. Sej me gulaab ke sugandhit phool bikhre huye the aur chaaro taraf se phoolo ke haar jhool rahe the jo farsh ko chhu rahe the.
Surkh jode me baithi us khubsurat si dulhan ne halka sa ghooghat kiya hua tha magar uska chehra fir bhi dikh raha tha. Us chehre me halki si haya aur halki si laalima chhayi huyi dikh rahi thi. Seep si palke jhuki huyi thi. Hotho par rah rah kar halki si muskaan thirak uthti thi. Kamre me is wakt uske siva koi nahi tha. Matlab saaf tha ki use apne pati parmeshwar ke aane ka besabri se intzaar tha aur kuch hi der me jaise uska ye intzaar khatam bhi ho gaya.
Kamre ka darwaza halki si awaaz ke sath khula aur ek shakhs darwaze ke andar daakhil hua. Shakhs ke badan par is wakt safed rang ka kurta pajama tha. Kad kaathi chhai fit se kam nahi thi uski. Kurte ki halki kasi huyi bhujaao se hi prateet hota tha ki uska jism kafi majboot aur hatta katta tha.
Shakhs ne andar aate hi sabse pahle suhaag sej par baithi dulhan ko dekha. Uske andar aane ki aahat se suhaag sej par baithi huyi dulhan ke jism me halki si jumbish huyi. Aisa laga jaise usne khud ko samet lena chaha ho. Usne shakhs ki taraf nazar utha kar nahi dekha tha, balki sir ko aur bhi zyada jhuka liya tha. Shakhs ke hotho par ye dekh kar gahri muskaan ubhri aur fir usne palat kar kamre ke darwaze ko band kar ke uski kundi laga di. Uske baad wo fir se palta aur hotho par waisi hi muskaan sajaye wo suhaag sej ki taraf aahista se badha.
"Your most welcome my sweet heart." Shakhs ne bed ke paas pahuchte hi zara jhuk kar us dulhan se kaha______"Aakhir tum aa hi gayi na mere paas."
Suhaag sej par baithi dulhan ke kaano me jaise hi ye waakya pada to wo buri tarah chaunki aur usne ek jhatke se apna sir utha kar us shakhs ki taraf dekha. Uske is tarah dekhne se shakhs ke hotho par badi hi jaandaar muskaan ubhar aayi. Jabki shakhs par nazar padte hi dulhan ke chehre par chaunkne ke sath sath ghabrahat ke bhaav bhi ubhar aaye.
"T...tum.????" Dulhan ne badi hairaani se kaha_____"Tum yaha kaise.??"
"Aree ye kya baat huyi meri jaan.?" Shakhs ne jaise chaunkne ki acting ki______"Mujhe to yahi hona chahiye na.? Bhala mere alawa yaha dusra kaun ho sakta hai.?"
"Na...nahi nahi." Dulhan ne hadbada kar kaha_____"Tum yaha nahi ho sakte. Nikal jaao yaha se warna....!"
"Warna..????" Shakhs ne naatkeeya bhaav se kaha_____"Warna kya my dear.? Agar tum ye sochti ho ki mere yaha se na jane se tum shor machaaogi ya chillaaogi to jaan lo ki usse kuch nahi hoga. Main to yaha se tabhi jaauga meri jaan jab main aaj ki raat tumhare is khubsurat se husn ko jee bhar ke bhog luga."
"Ye kya badatmeeji hai.??" Dulhan ne is baar teekhe bhaav se kaha______"Tum mujhse aisi ghatiya baate kaise kar sakte ho.? Kya chhote bade ka lihaaj karna nahi aata tumhe.?"
"Mujhe to bas ek hi cheez aati hai dear." Shakhs ne muskurate huye kaha_____"Aur wo hai kisi bhi aurat ko ragad ragad ke thokna. Wo bhi kuch is tarike se ki aurat ki cheekhe pura mohalla sune. Tumhe jaan kar khushi hogi ki aaj raat tumhari aisi hi cheekhe nikalne wali hain aur sara mohalla ikattha ho kar tumhari wo gazabnaak cheekhe sunega."
"Bakwas band karo aur dafa ho jaao yaha se." Dulhan ne gusse me kaha______"Warna thik nahi hoga tumhare liye."
"Maine kaha na meri jaan." Shakhs ne puri dhithaayi ke sath kaha______"Ki main yaha se tab tak nahi jaauga jab tak ki tumhare is khubsurat se husn ko jee bhar ke bhog na lu. Haye kab se intzar tha mujhe is raat ka. Jab bhi tumhe dekhta tha to kasam se khud par kaabu nahi rahta tha. Laga karta tha ki usi wakt tumhe patak kar tum par ghode ki tarah chadh jaau aur fir de ghapa ghap de ghapa ghap."
"Jaiiiiiii." Dulhan puri taakat se chillaayi.
"Aur zor se chillaao meri jaan." Shakhs ne is baar haste huye kaha_____"Yaha jai naam ka koi bhi byakti nahi aane wala. Tab tak to hargiz bhi nahi jab tak ki main uski khubsurat dulhaniya ke sath suhaagraat na mana lu."
Suhaag sej par baithi dulhan ko jaise pahli baar mahsoos hua ki situation kya hai aur is situation me uski madad karne wala koi nahi aayega. Ye mahsoos karte hi uski haalat kharaab ho gayi. Palak jhapakte hi uska chehra fakk pad gaya. Dar aur ghabraahat haavi ho gayi us par. Samne khada shakhs use kisi darinde se kam nahi laga. Use samajh nahi aa raha tha ki jiske sath wo byaah kar ke aayi thi wo is wakt yaha kyo nahi hai aur ye shakhs yaha kaise aa gaya aur uske sath aisa kyo kar raha hai.? Use itna to pata tha ki ye shakhs kaun hai magar ye nahi pata tha ki ye aadmi uske sath aise pesh aayega.
"Dekho main tumhare aage haath jodti hu." Sej par baithi dulhan ne sahsa ruaanse swar me aur hatho ko jod kar kaha_____"Bhagwan ke liye aisi baate mat karo mujhse. Main to tumhari bhabhi hu aur bhabhi to maa samaan hoti hai na? Fir bhala tum mujhse aisi baate kaise kar sakte ho.?"
"Bhabhi...??? Maa samaan.???? Hahaha." Shakhs ne byangaatmak bhaav se haste huye kaha______"Ye rishte tumne banaye hain dear maine nahi. Mere liye to tumse mera ek hi rishta hai aur wo ye ki tum aaj ki raat meri dulhan ho aur main tumhara doolha hu. Ab chalo baate bahut ho gayi, ab hame wo kaam karna chahiye jiske liye tum yaha intzaar karte huye baithi thi."
"Nahiiiii." Dulhan ki aankho se aanshu chhalak pade aur rulaayi foot padi uski, boli_____"Bhagwan ke liye mere sath aisa mat karo. Main tumse raham ki bheekh maagti hu. Mujhe barbaad mat karo."
"Aisa kyo hota hai dear ki kisi ko pyaar ki bhasha samajh me nahi aati.?" Shakhs ne kathor bhaav se kaha______"Abhi tak main tumse pyaar se baat kar raha tha. Socha tha ki pyaar se sab kuch ho jayega magar shayad tumhe pyaar se kuch bhi karna pasand hi nahi hai. Is liye chalo ab zor zabardasti se hi karte hain."
Surkh jode me baithi dulhan rote huye nahi nahi karti hi rah gayi jabki shakhs ne aage badh kar use bed par gira diya. Kamre me dulhan ki cheekhe goonjne lagi. Wo buri tarah chhatpatate huye us shakhs ke chaungul se chhutne ki koshish karne lagi magar shakhs ki majbut pakad se wo khud ko azaad karne me safal na huyi. Idhar shakhs ne use bed par girane ke baad uske sir ki chunri ko nikaal kar door fenk diya aur fir surkh rang ke blouj me kaid uski badi badi thos chhaatiyo ki taraf dekha. Uske is tarah dekhne se dulhan ko badi zor ki sharm aayi aur wo fir se uski pakad se chhootne ki koshish karne lagi. Wo puri taakat laga rahi thi magar ek mard ki majbut pakad ke aage jaise wo bebas ho gayi thi.
Kamre me dulhan ke zor zor se rone ki awaaz aur cheekhe goonj rahi thi aur wo shakhs uske rone aur cheekhne ki parwaah kiye bagair uske jism se uske kapde nikaalne me mashgool tha. Thodi hi der me usne dulhan ka blouj faad kar uske jism se alag kar diya. Shaksh ke niche dabi wo dulhan kisi machhli ki tarah chhatpata rahi thi. Blouj ke nikalte hi surkh rang ki bra me kaid uski gori saffaak chhaatiya aadhe se zyada numaya ho uthi.
"Waah meri jaan." Uski adhnangi chhaatiyo ko dekhte hi wo shakhs kah utha______"Kya mast mast bobe hain tumhare. Aise bobe maine aaj tak nahi dekhe the. Uffff kitne bade bade aur dudhaaru dikhte hain ye. Sach much aaj bahut maza aayega inhe chakhne me."
"Mujhe chhod de kamine." Aurat usse chhootne ke liye pura zor lagate huye cheekhi______"Warna bhagwan ka qaher tujh par barsega. Apni maa samaan bhabhi ki ijjat se khelne wale tujhe nark me bhi jagah nahi milegi. Sad sad ke marega tu."
"Tujh jaisi maal ko bhogne ke baad mujhe sad sad ke marna bhi manjoor hai meri gulbadan." Shakhs ne kahne ke sath hi jhuk kar uski ek chhaati ko bra ke upar se hi nipple wale bhaag ko muh me bhar kar zor se kheecha jisse wo buri tarah karaah kar rah gayi aur saath hi us shakhs ke bandhan se chhootne ki nakaam koshish ki magar chhoot na paayi. Apni is bebasi par wo buri tarah fafak fafak kar ro padi. Duniya ke sare devi devtaao ko awaaz lagane lagi wo, sath hi apne pati ko bhi.
Dulhan ki chhaati ko us shakhs ne jee bhar ke chuma chata uske baad uske bra ko niche ki taraf jaise hi kheecha waise hi aurat ki chhatpatahat fir se tez ho gayi. Udhar jaise hi bra niche ki taraf khichi to uski ek chhaati uchhal kar baahar aa gayi. Doodh jaisi bedaag us chhaati ko gahri nazar se dekha us shakhs ne aur fir fauran hi jhuk kar uske nipple ko muh me bhar liya. Usne dono haatho se dulhan ke haatho ko majbuti se pakda hua tha aur uske jism ka pura bhaar uske upar tha. Yaani wo dulhan chaah kar bhi kuch nahi kar sakti thi. Kamre me uska rudan goonj raha tha.
Shakhs dulhan ki chhaati ke nipple ko chusne me magan tha aur isi vajah se uski pakad thodi dheeli pad gayi thi. Dulhan ne pura zor laga kar apne ek haath ko chhuda liya aur fir usne shakhs ke sir ke baalo ko pakad kar puri taakat se kheecha jisse shakhs ki cheekh nikal gayi aur usne jhat se uski chhaati ke nipple ko muh se nikaal diya. Marta kya na karta ki tarz par dulhan ne itne par hi bas nahi kiya balki sir utha kar usne shakhs ke kandhe par zor se apne daant gada diye jisse kamre me shakhs ki cheekh buland ho gayi. Dulhan ki is kriya se shakhs ne uska dusra haath bhi chhod diya aur usse chhitak kar door ho gaya.
"Haramzaadi kutiya." Dulhan se door hatte hi shakhs ne gusse se tamtamate huye kaha______"Mere kandhe par kaata tune. Ruk ab tujhe batata hu."
Shakhs ne kaha aur fir idhar udhar dekhne laga. Jald hi use kamre me ek taraf aalmaari ke paas hi kone me rakha ek hocky stick nazar aaya. Wo badi tezi se us taraf badha. Idhar uske hatte hi dulhan ne apni bra ko jaldi se thik kiya aur badi tezi se bed se niche utar kar darwaze ki taraf bhaagi. Abhi wo darwaze ke paas pahuchi hi thi ki shakhs ne uski taraf lapak kar peeche se uske sir ke baalo ko mutthi me pakad kar apni taraf jhatke se kheech liya. Dulhan karaahte huye ek jhonk me uski taraf aayi. Shakhs ne use gandi si gaali de kar dhakka diya jisse wo bed par chitt awastha me gir gayi. Udhar gusse me tamtamaya hua wo shakhs aage badha aur us hocky stick ko badi tezi se ghuma kar dulhan ke sir par jama diya. Nateeja bada bhayanak nikla. Hocky stick ka tez prahaar sir par lagte hi sir fat gaya aur dulhan ke sir se khoon ki moti si dhaar bah chali. Dulhan ke gale se ek ghuti huyi si cheekh nikli aur fir kuch hi palo me uski aankhe fati hi rah gayi. Us dulhan ke andar se praan jaisi cheez nikal kar hawa me vileen ho chuki thi.
"Saundaryaaaaaaaaaa.....!!!!!" Bed par gahri neend me soya pada shakhs puri taakat se cheekhte huye uth baitha. Uska pura chehra paseene se tarbatar tha aur saanse aisi chal rahi thi jaise wo meelo daud kar aaya ho. Uski is bhayanak cheekh ko sun kar uske bagal me hi soyi padi saundarya bhi hadbada kar uth baithi thi.
BEGUNAAH Last Update - 37 __________________________________
Dusre din inspector dushyant vikrant ke sath police head quarter pahucha. Waha par usne apne aala adhikariyo ko avinash urf jay ke maamle ke bare me saari baate vistaar se bataayi jise sun kar waha maujood sabhi aala adhikari hairaan rah gaye the. Unhe yakeen nahi ho raha tha ki avinash yaani ki jay ka koi judwa bhai tha jo uski hi shaklo soorat ka tha aur usne mahaj zameen jaaydaad aur khazane ke chakkar me ye sab kiya tha. Itna hi nahi balki usne apne bade bhai ki patni ko apni hawash ka shikaar banane ke liye apne bade bhai ki shakal soorat ka faayda utha kar use maarna chaha aur uski patni ko apna bana liya. Jay ki premika jo ki shadi ke baad uski patni ban gayi thi use bhi is baat ka pata na chal saka tha ki jiske sath usne do saal guzaare wo uska pati nahi balki pati ke roop me uske hi pati ka ham shakl bhai tha aur rishte me uska devar lagta tha.
Inspector dushyant aur sub inspector vikrant ke dwara avinash urf jay ki daastaan sun kar aala adhikariyo ke beech kaafi der tak is sambandh me baate hoti rahi uske baad dushyant aur vikrant apne adhikariyo ki ijaazat le kar waapas apne police station aa gaye. Vikrant ko police thane ke saamne utaar kar dushyant vidhi ke ghar aa gaya. Jaha par yaswant pahle se hi maujood tha aur wo vidhi aur pratiksha ke sath baitha baate kar raha tha.
"Gudiya dekh to ise." Dushyant ko dekhte hi yaswant ne pratiksha se kaha_____"Kaise iske chehre par baarah baje huye hain. Lagta hai head quarter me iske adhikariyo ne ise police ki naukari se bedakhal kar diya hai. Tujhe bhi aisa hi lagta hai na gudiya.?"
"Aap is baat me mujhe kyo shaamil kar rahe hain bhaiya.?" Pratiksha ne muskurate huye kaha_____"Aap jaante hain na ki jab aap dono ki baat aati hai to main aap dono me se kisi ka bhi paksh nahi le sakti."
"Are to tu mujhe ishare se hi bata de na gudiya." Yaswant ne muskurate huye kaha_____"Main samajh jaauga ki tera jawaab kya hai."
"Tu saale meri naukari ke peechhe kyo pada hai be.?" Dushyant ne yaswant ke baaju me ek mukka jadte huye kaha_____"Tujhe abhi pata hi nahi hai ki head quarter me kya hua hai. Waha jab maine jay ke maamle me apni veerta aur buddhimaani se bhari daastaan sunaayi to har aala adhikari meri taraf aise dekhne lage the jaise main hi james bond ka baap hu aur fir pata hai kya hua.? Sabke sab kahne lage ki meri padonnati kar ke mujhe SP bana dena chahiye. Bas fir kya tha sab ki yahi ichha thi is liye mujhe SP banane lage magar fir maine unhe iske liye mana kar diya. Kyo ki main nahi chaahta tha ki main SP ban jaau aur mera lagotiya yaar yaani ki tu maamuli sa sub inspector hi bana rah jaye. Beta tere liye maine SP ke pad ko thokar maar di. Mere is ahsaan ke liye to tujhe mere charno ko dho kar uska paani pi jana chahiye...kyo gudiya maine sahi kaha na.?"
Dushyant ki baate sun kar jaha yaswant ne bura sa muh bana liya wahi vidhi aur pratiksha khilkhila kar hasne lagi thi. Jabki unhe haste dekh dushyant yaswant ki taraf dekhte huye apni palke jhapkane laga.
"Gudiya ja andar se ek thaali le aa." Fir dushyant ne pratiksha se kaha_____"Aur ek lota paani bhi le aa. Ye mere pair dhoyega aur fir us paani ko pi kar mera ahsaan chukayega."
"Abe main tere sir ko usi lote me thoos duga samjhe." Yaswant ne aankhe dikhaate huye kaha_____"Bhabhi ji ke saamne meri ijjat ko mitti me mila raha hai...chhoduga nahi tujhe...dekh lena iska badla le kar rahuga main."
"Ab aap dono jhagadiye mat." Pratiksha ne kaha_____"Aur hame bhi bataaiye ki waha par kya kya hua.?"
"Kya isne tum logo ko bataya nahi.?" Dushyant ne aankhe sikodte huye kaha.
"Kaha bataya inhone." Pratiksha ne maayusi bhare bhaav se kaha_____"Ye jab se yaha aaye hain tab se bas faaltu ki baate hi karte rahe hain...haan nahi to."
"Tu meri gyaan dhyaan ki baato ko faaltu ki baate kah rahi hai gudiya.?" Yaswant ne aankhe failaate huye kaha_____"Mujhe tujhse ye ummid nahi thi. Haye aaj meri pyari si gudiya bhi mere khilaaf ho gayi."
"Dekha bhabhi aapne.?" Pratiksha ne vidhi ki taraf dekhte huye kaha_____"Ye dono aise hi hain. Ek to chaliye ab aapke hawale ho gaye hain kintu inka bhi ab kuch na kuch karna padega. Haan nahi to."
"Main sabke liye chaay bana kar laati hu." Vidhi ne muskurate huye kaha aur sofe se uth kar kitchen ki taraf chali gayi.
"Ye huyi na baat." Yaswant ne chahakte huye kaha_____"Jaldi se bana kar laaiye bhabhi aur haan aapki banaayi saari chaay main akela hi piyuga. Gudiya ko to main de duga lekin is namakool ko hargiz nahi duga."
Yaswant ki baat sun kar vidhi muskuraati huyi andar kitchen me chali gayi. Yaswant ki is baat par dushyant aur pratiksha bhi muskura uthe the. Khair thodi der me vidhi tray me sab ke liye chaay le kar aayi aur table par tray ko rakh diya.
"Tu kisi cup ko haath bhi nahi laga sakta samjhe." Yaswant ne dushyant ko ghudki dete huye kaha_____"Ye sari chaay main akele hi piyuga. Gudiya tu apne liye ek cup le sakti hai."
"Aur bhabhi.??" Pratiksha ne muskurate huye pucha.
"Haan unhe kaise mana kar sakta hu.?" Yaswant ne muskurate huye kaha_____"Aakhir unhone hi to banaayi hai to ek cup wo bhi le sakti hain lekin is shart par ki bhabhi apne cup ki chaay pahle khud piye aur fir is chotti chor ko bhi pilaye."
"Hehehe ye to kamaal ki shart hai aapki." Pratiksha ne haste huye kaha____"Lekin bhaiya aap aisi shart kyo rakh rahe hain.?"
"Kyo ki main in dono ka pyar apni aankho se dekhna chaahta hu." Yaswant muskuraya aur fir dushyant ki taraf dekhte huye bola_____"Ab agar tujhme himmat hai to ham sabke saamne bhabhi ke sath ek hi cup me chaay pi kar dikha."
Yaswant ki ye baat sun kar jaha vidhi sharma gayi wahi dushyant hairaani se yaswant ko dekhne laga. Idhar pratiksha to mare utsukta ke kah hi uthi____"Waah bhaiya ab to main bhi dekhugi ki bhaiya bhabhi kaise ek hi cup me chaay peete hain."
"Tum dono ko kuch sharam hai ki nahi.?" Dushyant ne aankhe dikhate huye kaha_____"Main aisa kuch bhi nahi karne wala samajh gaye na tum dono.?"
Dushyant ki baat par jaha vidhi ne chain ki saans li wahi pratiksha aur yaswant mayoos se ho gaye. Khair sab ne chaay pi, uske baad vidhi ke puchne par dushyant ne avinash yaani ki jay ki saari kahani bataai aur ye bhi bataya ki waha kya hua tha. Saari kahani sunne ke baad vidhi aur pratiksha hairaan rah gayi thi, khaas kar is baat se ki naqab wala jay ka judwa bhai tha aur wo apne bhai jay ka ham shakl tha. Jay ki patni saundarya ke bare me sun kar to wo dono aur bhi zyada hairaan huyi thi kintu ye jaan kar unhe bura bhi laga ki saundarya ne khud ko goli maar li thi.
"Badi ajeeb aur vichitra si kahani hai jay ki." Vidhi ne saari baate sunne ke baad kaha_____"Ham to bekaar me hi ye samajh rahe the ki jay ne apne past me yakeenan us naqab wale ke sath kuch bura kiya tha jiski vajah se wo jay ke sath ye sab kar raha tha. Jabki haqiqat to hamari soch se bhi pare nikli. Avinash yaani ki jay shuru se hi begunaah tha. Uska character to shuru se hi bahut nek vichaaro wala tha. Jabki uska chhota bhai ek chhata hua badmash tha jise rishto ki maan maryada se koi lena dena nahi tha."
"Kabhi kabhi aisa bhi hota hai ki ham bhale hi kisi ke sath kuch bura nahi kiye hote." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Iske baavjud hamare sath bura hota hai. Jay ne apne bhai ke sath kuch bhi bura nahi kiya tha kintu haan shayad uska gunaah ye tha ki wo jis saundarya naam ki ladki se pyar karta tha aur jisse uski shadi huyi thi us ladki ko uska chhota aur ham shakl bhai vijay bhi pasand karta tha...balki ye kahe ki wo saundarya ko apni hawash ka shikaar banana chaahta tha. Saundarya ke mata pita ne apni beti saundarya ki shadi jay se tay kar di thi. Vijay ko jab is baat ka pata chala to wo aag baboola ho gaya aur usne gusse me aa kar saundarya ke mata pita ko unke ghar ja kar goli maar di. Dusre din jab is baat ka pata jay aur saundarya ko chala to wo dono bahut dukhi huye. Wahi ek taraf vijay apne baap se kisi khazane ke bare me jaanna chaahta tha aur usne apne baap ko dhamki de rakhi thi ki agar usne pyar se use khazane ke bare me nahi bataya to wo uske bete aur bahu ko bhi jaan se maar daalega. Jay ko khazane ke bare me kuch pata nahi tha magar jab vijay ne saundarya ke mata pita ko maar dala to jay ka baap samajh gaya ki gusse me paglaya hua uska bigdail beta vijay kahi sach me na jay aur saundarya ko maar de is liye usne un dono ko gaav chhod kar kahi bhaag jane ko kaha. Apne pita ki baat sun kar jay ne pahle to kahi bhaag jane se mana kiya magar jab uske pita ne use apni kasam de di to use apne pita ki baat maanni hi padi kintu jay ne apne pita se bhi ye kaha ki wo bhi uski maa ko le kar kahi chale jaye. Apaahiz pita uski maa ko le kar bhala kaha jata.? Tab jay ne apne pita se kaha ki wo unhe Lohra ke jangal ke andar bane maa kali ke mandir me le jaayega. Jangal me sthit us mandir me koi nahi jata tha kyo ki wo mandir shaapit tha. Khair apne bete jay ki is baat ko uske pita ne maan liya aur fir jay saundarya ko ghar me hi rukne ka bol kar apne mata pita ko le kar lohra ke jangal me bane us mandir me le gaya. Idhar vijay us samay waha tha nahi kintu uske aadmiyo ke dwara use ye pata chal gaya ki uska bhai jay apne mata pita ko kahi le kar gaya hai. Apne aadmi ki baat sun kar vijay bahut gussa hua aur usne faisla kar liya ki wo jay ko jaan se maar daalega. Vijay apne ek khaas aadmi moorat ke sath us samay kahi baahar gaya hua tha kintu jay ke bare me apne aadmi se ye khabar sun kar wo use maarne ke liye chal pada tha. Raaste me vijay ke us khaas aadmi moorat ne use samjhaya ki gusse me use aisa nahi karna chahiye. Moorat ki baat maan kar vijay thanda to hua kintu wo is baat ko sahan nahi kar pa raha tha ki uske bhai ne uske man pasand shikaar saundarya ko apni patni bana liya hai. Tab moorat ne use iske liye samjhate huye ek tareeka bataya. Wo tareeka ye tha ki bhagwan ki kripa se un dono bhaiyo ki shaklo soorat ek jaisi hi hai is liye wo badi asaani se apne bhai jay ki jagah le sakta hai. Vijay ko moorat ki baat samajh me aa gayi. Usne to is bare me kabhi socha hi nahi tha ki saundarya badi asaani se uski ho sakti hai. Jab moorat ne use is bare me gahraayi se samjhaya to wo behad khush hua. Plan ke anusaar jay ko apne raaste se hata dena tha aur uski jagah khud ko fit kar dena tha. Jay ki jagah khud ko fit karne ke baad use apni fitrat ko bhi jay ki tarah bana lena tha. Vijay ke liye apni fitrat ko badalna mushkil to tha kintu namumkin nahi. Bas uske baad vijay ne isi plan ko anjaam dene ka socha aur chal pada jay ko maarne ke liye. Udhar jay apne mata pita ko jangal me surakshit karne ke baad unke liye kuch zaruri cheeze laane ke liye shahar ki taraf chal diya tha. Idhar jab vijay aur moorat plan bana kar chal diye to unhone apne aadmiyo ko hukum diya ki wo jay ko talash kare ki wo kaha hai. Vijay ke hukum par uske aadmi jay ki talash me lag gaye. Jald hi unhone jay ko khoj liya aur vijay ko bata bhi diya ki wo kaha hai. Apne aadmi ke dwara jay ke bare me pata chal jane par vijay ne apne aadmiyo se bol diya ki wo jay ko raaste me hi kidnap kar le aur kahi door le ja kar use jaan se maar daale. Vijay ke kahne par uske aadmiyo ne waisa hi kiya. Un logo ne jay ko raaste me hi kidnap kar liya aur use us jagah se aisi jagah le gaye jaha aas paas pahaad the aur un pahaado ke beech khadaano par kaam chal raha tha. Shaam ka waqt tha is liye us waqt waha khadaan me koi nahi tha aur agar koi raha bhi hoga to dikh nahi raha tha. Vijay ke aadmiyo ne jay ko wahi par pahle buri tarah mara peeta aur fir uchaayi se use neeche fenk diya. Jay ka kriya karm karne ke baad vijay ke aadmiyo ne vijay ko is bare me suchit kar diya ki un logo ne jay ko thikane laga diya hai. Apne bhai ko thikane lagane ke baad vijay khush tha kyo ki ab wo jay ki jagah lene wala tha aur saundarya ab uski patni ban kar uske sath hi rahne wali thi. Kintu use abhi apne maa baap ko bhi khojna tha kyo ki use apne baap se khazane ka pata jaanna tha. Is liye usne apne aadmiyo ko fir se kaam par laga diya. Uske aadmiyo ne uske maa baap ko har jagah khoja magar wo unhe kahi na mile. Is baat ka pata jab vijay ko chala to wo chinta me pad gaya. Use pahli baar ahsaas hua ki usne jay ko jaan se marwa kar bahut badi galti kar di hai. Uske aadmiyo ne use bataya tha ki jay mata pita ko le kar ghar se kahi gaya tha. Us waqt use ye andaza nahi hua tha ki uska bhai uske mata pita ko usse bachane ke liye unhe surakshit karne le ja raha tha warna wo apne aadmiyo se kah deta ki wo jay ka peecha kare. Vijay ko apni galti ka ahsaas hua aur fir jane kya soch kar wo moorat aur apne kuch aadmiyo ke sath us jagah gaya jaga par uske aadmiyo ne jay ko maar kar fenk diya tha. Din nikal chuka tha aur suraj upar chadh chuka tha. Vijay jab us jagah pahucha to usne dekha ki jay apne hi khoon me sana hua zameen par achet awastha me pada tha. Apne bade bhai ke us lahu luhaan jism ko dekh kar ek pal ke liye bhi use dukh nahi hua balki wo jaldi se aage badha aur jay ke hath ki nabj tatolne laga. Ummid ke vipreet jay ki nabj use chalti huyi mahsoos huyi. Ye dekh kar wo khush ho gaya. Usne fauran hi apne aadmiyo se kaha ki wo jay ko kisi aisi jagah par le chale jaha dusra koi na ho. Vijay ke hukum par uske aadmi jay ke lahu luhaan jism ko le kar chal diye aur fir aisi jagah pahuche jaha jangal ke beech ek puraani si imaarat nazar aa rahi thi. Paas se dekhne par pata chala ki wo imaarat kisi zamane me hospital hi thi. Us hospital me paaglo ka ilaaz kiya jata tha. Khair wo log jay ko us jagah le kar aaye aur ek kamre ko achhi tarah se saaf kar ke jay ko us jagah rakh diya. Vijay ke kahne par uske aadmi kahi se ek doctor bhi le aaye jo jay ke ilaaz ke liye tha. Vijay ke kahne par doctor ne jay ka ilaaz shuru kar diya. Teen din baad jab jay ko hosh aaya to pata chala uski yaad daast ja chuki hai. Doctor ne ye baat vijay ko bataayi to wo ye soch kar chinta me pad gaya ki ab jay se use ye kaise pata chalega ki usne uske mata pita ko kaha chhupa kar rakh diya hai. Vijay ke liye ye ek nayi problem khadi ho gayi thi kintu ab wo bhala kya kar sakta tha.?"
"Wahi dusri taraf." Saans lene ke baad dushyant ne fir se batana shuru kiya_____"Vijay ne khud ko jay ki jagah par fit kar liya tha. Shuruaat me uske liye thodi mushkil huyi aur dar bhi laga magar usne apne character ke vipreet badi dakshta se kaam liya tha. Saundarya ko usne bhanak tak na lagne di ki wo uska pati jay nahi balki uska devar vijay hai. Plan ke anusaar wo saundarya ko gaav se le kar dusri jagah aa gaya tha. Wo shuruaat me saundarya se bahut kam bolta tha aur jab saundarya usse is bare me kuch kahti to wo yahi kahta ki wo halaato ki vajah se thoda dukhi hai is liye uska kisi cheez me man nahi lag raha hai. Moorat ne badi samajhdaari se use har chhoti se chhoti cheez ki baarikiyo ko batate huye samjhaya tha. Jay ke character me use khud ko dhaalna tha is liye wo saundarya ke zyada kareeb nahi jata tha. Uske liye faayde wali baat ye thi ki us waqt halaat bhi aise ban gaye the ki sab kuch waisa hi hota zaahir hona tha jaise ki aisi situations me aam insaan ka ravaiya ban jata hai. Khair ab wo dohri zindagi jeene laga tha. Ek taraf wo saundarya ke liye uska pati jay bana hua tha aur dusri taraf wo apne asli kirdaar me jay ka ilaaz karwa raha tha. Moorat uska khaas aadmi tha aur usi ke kahne par wo jay se milne hospital gaya. Ab plan ye tha ki yaad daast ja chuke jay ko ye batana tha ki wo uska apna sambandhi hai, taaki jay ko maansik roop se koi takleef na ho. Uske baad plan ke anusaar wo jay ko apni ek khaas jagah par tab tak rakhta jab tak ki uski yaad daast waapas na aa jaye. Moorat ka kahna tha ki jay ko yakeen dilaane ke liye use koi naam bhi dena hoga aur koi aisa proof bhi jis par wo yakeen kar sake. Iske liye moorat ne ek aisa adhaar card kahi se le kar aaya tha jisme naam to avinash likha tha magar us adhaar ke numbers aur uski photo ghisi huyi thi. Hospital me jab jay ko hosh aaya to vijay apne chehre par daadhi moonch laga kar jay ke saamne gaya aur use avinash kah kar pukara. Moorat ke kahne par us adhaar card ko vijay ke ek aadmi ne pahle hi ek aise bag me rakh diya tha jise wo jay ke liye hi khareed kar laaye the aur us bag me uske un kapdo ko bhi daal diya tha jo khoon se sane huye the. Ab kyo ki jay ki yaad daast ja chuki thi is liye jab vijay ne use avinash kah kar pukara to use yahi laga ki uska naam avinash hi hai. Khair us din to kuch khaas nahi hua kintu kuch dino baad vijay ke tab hosh ud gaye jab use ye khabar mili ki jay us hospital se bhaag nikla hai. Is khabar se vijay buri tarah baukhla gaya tha. Uske man me ye khayaal ubhra ki kahi uske bhai ki yaad daast waapas to nahi aa gayi.? Is khayaal se wo buri tarah hil gaya aur apne aadmiyo ko jay ki talash me laga diya. Vijay ke aadmi har jagah jay ko khoj rahe the magar jay unhe mil nahi raha tha. Aakhir do maheene baad vijay ke aadmiyo ne jay ko khoj hi liya aur unhe ye bhi pata chal gaya ki jay ke dimaag ki batti gul hai. Vijay ke liye ye achhi khabar thi kintu usne jay ko fir se kidnap karwane ka irada nahi kiya. Balki use pareshaan karne ke liye kuch aur hi socha. Shuruaat me jay ko apni yaad daast jane se bahut taklif huyi. Wo dar dar bhookh se idhar udhar bhatakta raha tha. Fir ek hotel me use bartan aur jhaadu ponchha karne ka kaam mil gaya. Vijay ke aadmi har roz door se use dekh kar chale jate the. Hotel ke maalik ki meharbaani se jay ko rahne ki jagah mil gayi jisse uski taklife thodi kam ho gayi magar jay ke liye vijay ne kuch aur hi soch rakha tha. Jis jagah jay rah raha tha waha ke bare me vijay ko uske aadmiyo ne pahle hi bata diya tha aur khud vijay bhi dekh chuka tha. Ek raat wo chhat ke raaste ghar me ghusa aur waha par badi saawdhani se ek kamre me rakhi aalmari ko khol kar usme rakhe gahne jewar churaye. Churaye huye gahno ko le kar wo jay ke kamre ke paas pahucha. Jay ka kamra andar se band tha kintu khidki khuli huyi thi. Vijay ne khidki se dekha jay kamre ke farsh par bina kuch bichhaye hi so raha tha. Use sota dekh vijay ne un gahno ko darwaze ke niche se kamre me pahucha diya. Uske baad wo waapas aaya aur ek dusre kamre ke paas aaya. Darwaze ko andar ki taraf dhakela to wo khul gaya. Kamre ke andar bed par ek aurat so rahi thi. Vijay ne use gaur se dekha aur fir bekhauf aage badh kar bed par chadh gaya. Vijay ka irada us aurat ki ijjat lootne ka nahi tha balki sirf uske sath zor zabardasti ka naatak karne ka tha aur yahi usne us aurat ke sath kiya. Pahle to wo aurat buri tarah dar gayi aur fir jab vijay uske sath zor zabardasti karne laga to usne shor machana shuru kar diya. Aurat ki cheekhe sun kar ghar ke sab log jaag gaye aur us aurat ke kamre ki taraf daude. Vijay ko jaise hi andaza hua ki ghar ke log jag gaye hain aur uski taraf hi aa rahe hain to wo fauran hi waha se bhaag nikla. Usne sabko apni shakl achhe se dikha di thi aur fir bhaagte huye wo jidhar se aaya tha wahi se furr ho gaya. Idhar ghar ke logo ne kyo ki uski shakl dekh li thi is liye wo yahi samajhe the ki aisi ghatiya harkat karne wala unka hi kirayedaar hai. Gusse me paglaye huye wo jay ke kamre me pahuche aur darwaze ko peetna shuru kar diya. Kamre ke andar gahri neend me soya pada jay hadbada kar uth baitha. Baahar ka shor aur darwaze ke peete jane se use khuch samajh me nahi aaya kintu usne darwaza zarur khol diya. Darwaza khulte hi jaise uske upar aafat toot padi. Ghar ke logo ne use bura bhala kahte huye pahle to khoob mara peeta aur fir phone kar ke police ko bula liya. Police aayi aur usne jay ko pakad liya. Jay ke kamre me hi darwaze ke andar ek taraf pade gahne pade mile to us par chori ka ilzaam bhi lag gaya. Uske baad police jay ko thane le gayi jaha par uski achhi khaasi kutaayi huyi. Bechare jay ko last tak samajh nahi aaya ki uske sath ye kaise ho gaya tha. Police ki maar ke baavjud wo yahi kahta raha ki usne koi apraadh nahi kiya hai magar uski baat bhala kaise koi maan leta jabki ghar ke sab logo ne saaf dekha tha ki unke ghar ki aurat ke sath zor zabardasti karne wala wahi tha aur usi ke kamre me unke chori kiye gaye gahne bhi mile the. Khair uske baad vijay uske sath har do maheene baad yahi karne laga aur jay ko is tarah se fasa kar uska jeena haraam karta raha."
"Sach hi to tha." Ek gahri saans lete huye vidhi ne kaha_____"Us ghar ke log bhala ye kalpana kaise kar sakte the ki jis par wo aarop laga rahe the wo asal me begunaah tha aur asal gunahgaar ek aisa shakhs tha jo uski hi shakl ka uska koi apna tha."
"Aapne bilkul theek kaha bhabhi." Pratiksha ne kaha_____"Us avinash ke sath to sach me bahut bura hua tha. Uska bhai mujhe mil jaye to main uska chehra noch daalu...haan nahi to."
"Ab wo tujhe apna chehra nochwane ke liye nahi milega gudiya." Yaswant ne muskurate huye kaha_____"Kyo ki saundarya ne goli maar kar use yamlok bhej diya hai aur fir usne khud ko bhi goli maar li. How sad na.?"
"Lekin bhaiya." Pratiksha ne sochne wale andaaz se kaha_____"Agar saundarya ne goli maar kar us vijay ko maar dala hai to fir ye baate aapko kaise pata chali.?"
"Very good question." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Iska jawaab ye hai ki mujhe ye sab baate vijay ke us khaas aadmi se pata chali hain jiska naam moorat tha. Halaaki waha par maujood vijay ke lagbhag sabhi aadmi mare gaye the kintu moorat bada shakht jaan tha. Vikrant ke dwara use bhi goli lagi thi kintu goli uske pet ke bilkul kinaare par lagi thi jisse uski maut nahi huyi. Inspector sharma use giraftar kar ke apne sath le gaya tha. Ham log jay ke gaav gaye the aur waha se fir inspector sharma ke thane gaye jaha par hamne moorat se saari baate puchhi to usne hame sab kuch vistaar se bataya."
"Ohh to aapne us moorti se." Pratiksha ne muskurate huye kaha____"Mera matlab hai ki us moorat se pucha nahi ki vijay har baar avinash ko ek tarah ke hi jurm me kyo fasata tha.?"
"Uska yahi kahna tha ki vijay aisa is liye karta tha taaki jay har baar apne upar lage ek hi tarah ke aarop se buri tarah aahat ho." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Dusre wo use is baat ki saza deta tha ki usne saundarya ko apni patni bana liya tha. Halaaki jay ke jane ke baad bhale hi vijay saundarya ke sath jay ban kar rahta tha magar haqiqat me to wo vijay hi tha na. Saundarya ke saamne use jay jaisa banna padta tha aur is baat ka khayaal rakhna padta tha ki uski kisi galti se saundarya ko pata na chal jaye ki wo uska pati jay nahi hai."
"Bada ajeeb aadmi tha ye vijay." Pratiksha ne bura sa muh banate huye kaha_____"Mujhe to pura ka pura paagal hi lagta hai wo. Haan nahi to."
"Main ye soch rahi hu ki kya saundarya ko kabhi bhi is baat ka aabhaas na hua hoga." Vidhi ne kaha_____"Ki jise wo apna pati jay samajh rahi hai wo uska pati nahi balki uska devar vijay hai.? Aakhir wo aur jay dono hi ek dusre ko pahle se jaante the aur ek dusre ko pyaar bhi karte the. Fir use ye aabhaas kaise na hua ki uske sath rahne wala shakhs uska pati nahi balki pati ka bhesh banaye uska apna hi devar hai. Itna to use bhi pata tha ki jay aur vijay dono hi judwa bhai hain aur dono ki hi shakl hubahu ek dusre se milti hai to kabhi na kabhi to uske zahen me ye vichaar aane hi chahiye the."
"Mere man me bhi is bare me yahi khayaal ubhre the." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Aur maine moorat se is bare me sawaal bhi kiya tha, tab usne bataya ki is maamle me vijay ko usne bahut hi zyada saawdhaani baratne ko kaha tha aur wo aisa karta bhi tha. Kahne ka matlab ye ki vijay zyadatar saundarya se door hi rahta tha. Saundarya ke har sawaal ka uske paas uchit jawaab taiyar rahta tha. Usne saundarya ko saaf shabdo me bata diya tha ki uske yaani ki jay aur saundarya ke sath jo kuch bhi vijay ne kiya hai uska wo badla le kar rahega. Uske liye wo vijay ki tarah hi aadmiyo ko ikattha karega aur fir vijay se mukaabla karega. Wo saundarya ke sath jay ban kar rahta tha aur jay ke roop me wo usse waisi hi baate karta tha jaisi ki aisi situation me jay khud karta. Iske liye wo kayi kayi dino tak saundarya se door rahta tha aur agar saundarya usse is bare me kuch kahti to wo jay ke roop me usse yahi kahta ki wo ye sab vijay se badla lene aur khud uske mata pita ka badla lene ke liye kar raha hai. Wo kayi kayi dino tak is liye usse door rahta hai kyo ki wo vijay ki tarah hi khud ko majboot banane ke liye aadmi ikattha kar raha hai. Wo saundarya se hamesha yahi kahta ki ek din sab kuch theek ho jayega aur sab kuch theek hone ke baad wo befikra ho kar uske sath apne gaav ja kar jeewan bitayega. Saundarya uski aisi baato se bhala ye kaise sochti ki wo jay nahi balki jay ke roop me vijay hai.? Guzarte waqt ke sath vijay ke liye bhi sab kuch asaan hota gaya aur saundarya ne bhi kabhi ye nahi socha ki uske sath rah raha insaan kitna bada bahrupiya hai. Vijay ne apne aadmiyo ko bhi bol rakha tha ki wo jab bhi use phone kare to wo use jay naam se hi pukare. Saundarya ke saamne vijay ka har aadmi vijay ko jay bhai hi bolta tha. Agar kabhi vijay saundarya ko apne sath le kar apne aadmiyo se milne jata to wo apne aadmiyo ko pahle hi ishara kar deta ki saundarya ke saamne galti se bhi koi use vijay bhai na bole. Uske baad wo saundarya ke saamne apne aadmiyo se waise hi lahje me baate karta jaise ki aisi paristhitiyo me jay khud karta. Saundarya aur jay ka pyaar zyada samay ka nahi tha balki shadi ke ek maheene pahle hi dono ke ghar walo ne unki shadi ki baat chalaayi thi. Asal me saundarya ke pita aur jay ke pita door ke rishtedaar the. Dono ka ek dusre ke gaav me aana jana tha jisse kayi baar dono ne ek dusre ko dekha tha kintu seedha saadha jay kabhi apne dil ki baat saundarya se kah nahi paaya tha. Uske baad jab dono ko pata chala ki dono ke ghar walo ne un dono ka rishta pakka kar diya hai to wo chori chori milne lage. Saundarya ko jay ka saral aur sachcha swabhaav bha gaya tha jisse wo use kuch hi mulaqaato me premika ki tarah chaahne lagi thi. Dusri taraf saundarya apne naam ki hi tarah sundar thi aur jay uski sundarta par mar mita tha. Dono ke beech panap uthe prem ke bare me vijay ko pata chala to wo bhi saundarya ki surat dekhne nikla aur jab usne saundarya ko dekha to uske man me yahi khayaal aaya ki ye uske siva kisi aur ki nahi ho sakti. Usne iske liye direct saundarya ke mata pita se bekhauf ho kar baat ki magar saundarya ke mata pita ko vijay ka lahja bilkul bhi pasand nahi aaya. Waise bhi wo jay ke sath apni beti ki shadi pakki kar chuke the is liye vijay se apni beti ki shadi karne ka sawaal hi nahi khada ho sakta tha. Saundarya ke mata pita ne jab vijay ko inkaar kar diya to vijay ne unhe dhamki di ki agar wo apni beti ki shadi uske bhai jay se karenge to ye unke liye achha nahi hoga. Ghar aa kar vijay ne apne mata pita se bhi is bare me baat ki magar uske mata pita ne use iske liye saaf mana kar diya, upar se uske bigde huye swabhaav ke liye laanat bhi bhej di thi. Vijay ko jab har jagah se nakamiya mili to wo behad gussa hua aur us din to uske andar gusse ka dawanal hi dhadhak utha jab usne saundarya ko apne bhai jay ki dulhan ban kar ghar aate dekha tha. Wo gusse me paglaya hua saundarya ke gaav gaya aur waha par uske mata pita ko goliyo se bhoon diya."
"Achha hua ki aise insaan ko us saundarya ne goli maar di." Pratiksha ne kaha_____"Aise insaan ko zinda rahne ka koi haq nahi hai. Haan nahi to."
"Ye sab to thik hai." Vidhi ne sochne wale bhaav se pucha____"Lekin us saundarya ko baad me pata kaise chala ki jise wo pati samajh rahi thi aur jiske sath usne do saal uski patni ban kar guzaare wo uska pati jay nahi balki uska devar vijay hai.?"
"Moorat ko bhi vijay ne hi bataya tha ki saundarya ko uska sach pata chal gaya hai." Dushyant ke bolne se pahle hi yaswant ne kaha_____"Asal me vijay ki galti se hi saundarya ko sach ka pata chala. Moorat ne hame bataya ki jab vijay ke kahne par usne apne aadmiyo ko us din jay ka peecha karne ke liye lagaya tha to uske aadmi jay ka peechha karte huye Lohra ke us jangal me pahuch gaye jaha par unhone jay ke sath sath jay ke mata pita ko bhi dekha. Tab un logo ne moorat ko phone kar ke bataya aur moorat ne phone kar ke vijay ko bataya. Vijay us waqt apni car me saundarya ke sath tha. Jab uske paas moorat ka phone aaya to moorat ne bataya ki jay aur uske mata pita lohra me hain. Moorat se lohra naam sun kar vijay ke mukh se bhi bhoolvas lohra naam nikal gaya jise saundarya ne sun liya tha."
"Baat kuch samajh me nahi aayi bhaiya." Pratiksha ne apna sir khujate huye kaha_____"Is lohra naam me aisa kya tha jise vijay ke mukh se saundarya ne sun liya tha aur fir use kaise ye pata chal gaya ki wo jiske sath hai wo uska pati jay nahi balki vijay hai.?"
"Lohra ka zikra mahatwapoorn is liye hai gudiya kyo ki lohra ke jangal me jo kaali ka mandir tha." Yaswant ne kaha_____"Us mandir me jay chori chhupe aksar jaya karta tha aur ye baat usne saundarya ko bhi bataayi thi. Kaali maa ka wo mandir shaapit tha is liye waha koi nahi jata tha. Jab moorat se vijay ne lohra ka naam suna to uske mukh se bhi lohra nikal gaya aur wo soch me pad gaya tha. Saundarya ko vijay ka is tarah se sochna thoda atpata laga aur fir usne ye soch kar hairaani se jay bane vijay ki taraf dekha ki wo lohra ka naam sun kar itna sochne kyo laga hai jabki use to lohra ke us pandir ke bare me pahle se hi pata hai. Idhar saundarya ko apni taraf is tarah hairaani se dekhta dekh jay bane vijay ko laga ki uska bhed khul gaya hai is liye usne fauran hi saundarya ko behosh kar diya. Halaaki dekha jaye to vijay ne aisa kar ke khud hi apna bhed khol diya tha aur rahi sahi kasar tab puri ho gayi jab adde par pahuch kar usne behosh saundarya ko bhi jay aur uske mata pita ke bagal me pedh par baandh diya tha."
"Oh iska matlab." Vidhi ne gahri saans lete huye kaha_____"Itna bada shaatir dimaag rakhne wala vijay last me apni hi bachkana harkat ki vajah se apna bhed saundarya ke saamne khol baitha."
"Koi kitna hi bada shaatir ho bhabhi." Yaswant ne kaha_____"Usse bhi kabhi na kabhi aisi galti ho hi jati hai jiski vajah se uska sara khel palak jhapakte hi bigad jata hai. Yaha par ham agar is sabko ek dusre tareeke se soche to bahut kuch nazar aayega. Maan lijiye ki jay ko ham police walo ka sath na mila hota to kya hota aur ye bhi maan lijiye ki agar vijay ne saundarya ke saamne wo bachkaani harkat na ki hoti to kya hota.? Hota ye ki sambhav hai vijay saundarya ko apne sath apne adde par le kar hi na jata aur udhar jay ko pakad kar wo uska kriya karm kar deta. Uska baap uske laakh puchne par bhi agar use khazane ka pata na batata to wo zyada se zyada unhe maar daalta. Uske baad wo waapas aata aur saundarya ke sath jay ban kar apni zindagi jeene lagta."
"Baat to aapki theek hai bhaiya." Pratiksha ne kaha_____"Lekin sochne wali baat hai ki aapke anusaar agar vijay itna kuch karta to kya uske dwara kiye gaye aise karm kaand ka pata police ko na chal paata aur kya police iske liye kuch na karti.? Mujhe to lagta hai ki aapne police ko bilkul hi nakara samajh liya hai. Haan nahi to."
"Hamare jaise police wale hote to zarur kuch karte gudiya." Yaswant ne muskurate huye kaha_____"Magar waha ke police inspector sharma ko dekha hai hamne. Wo gubbare ki tarah apna pet fulaye araam se kursi par sota rahta hai. Vijay jaise khatarnaak mujrim ki uske thane me kahi koi file maujood nahi hai. Isse to yahi saabit hota hai ki vijay ye sab karne ke baad saundarya ke sath chain ki zindagi hi jeeta."
"Chalo ab ye bak bak band karo." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Kitna bolte ho tum log."
"Tujhse zyada bak bak koi nahi karta samjhe.?" Yaswant ne muskurate huye kaha_____"Achha ab ye bata ki vidhi ji ko tu officially meri bhabhi banane ka muhoorat kab nikalwayega.?"
Yaswant ki baat sun kar dushyant ne vidhi ki taraf dekha aur fir aankho se koi ishara kiya jisse vidhi sharma gayi. Vidhi ko is tarah sharmate dekh jaha yaswant muskura utha wahi pratiksha muskurate huye bade pyaar se vidhi ke sath side se chhupak gayi.
Shakhs ne kaha aur fir idhar udhar dekhne laga. Jald hi use kamre me ek taraf aalmaari ke paas hi kone me rakha ek hocky stick nazar aaya. Wo badi tezi se us taraf badha. Idhar uske hatte hi dulhan ne apni bra ko jaldi se thik kiya aur badi tezi se bed se niche utar kar darwaze ki taraf bhaagi. Abhi wo darwaze ke paas pahuchi hi thi ki shakhs ne uski taraf lapak kar peeche se uske sir ke baalo ko mutthi me pakad kar apni taraf jhatke se kheech liya. Dulhan karaahte huye ek jhonk me uski taraf aayi. Shakhs ne use gandi si gaali de kar dhakka diya jisse wo bed par chitt awastha me gir gayi. Udhar gusse me tamtamaya hua wo shakhs aage badha aur us hocky stick ko badi tezi se ghuma kar dulhan ke sir par jama diya. Nateeja bada bhayanak nikla. Hocky stick ka tez prahaar sir par lagte hi sir fat gaya aur dulhan ke sir se khoon ki moti si dhaar bah chali. Dulhan ke gale se ek ghuti huyi si cheekh nikli aur fir kuch hi palo me uski aankhe fati hi rah gayi. Us dulhan ke andar se praan jaisi cheez nikal kar hawa me vileen ho chuki thi.
"Saundaryaaaaaaaaaa.....!!!!!" Bed par gahri neend me soya pada shakhs puri taakat se cheekhte huye uth baitha. Uska pura chehra paseene se tarbatar tha aur saanse aisi chal rahi thi jaise wo meelo daud kar aaya ho. Uski is bhayanak cheekh ko sun kar uske bagal me hi soyi padi saundarya bhi hadbada kar uth baithi thi.
Ab Aage,,,,,,,
"Kya hua jai.???" Saundarya ne buri tarah se hadbada kar uthte hi puchha tha us shakhs se______"Tum itna buri tarah se cheekhe kyo.? Kya koi bura khwaab dekha hai tumne.?" "Aan...khwaab...??" Jai naam ka wo shakhs jaise vastu isthiti ko samajhne ki koshish karte huye badbadaya______"Haan shayad wo khwaab hi tha."
Raatri ka teesra prahar tha aur is wakt sara sansaar gahri neend me soya hota hai magar is wakt jai ke chehre par us khwaab ke chalte bade ajeeb se bhaav jaise taandav sa kar rahe the. Chehra hi kya balki pura jism paseene me nahaya hua tha. Uski haalat vikshipto jaisi thi. Saundarya use dekh kar ekdam se ghabra gayi thi aur uth kar baith gayi thi.
"Par ye kaisa khwaab tha jai.?" Saundarya ne jai ki taraf gaur se dekhte huye magar chintit bhaav se kaha______"Jiski vajah se tum itni zor se cheekh pade.? Aam taur par khwaab to aise nahi hote. Mujhe bataao jai kaisa khwaab dekh rahe the tum.?"
"Kaise bataau tumhe.?" Jai ki aankho ke saamne jaise us khwaab ki tasvire abhi bhi flash ho rahi thi aur wo unhe dekh ke maano bhaybheet ho raha tha. Ajeeb bhaav se bola_____"Main khwaab me dekh raha tha ki koi tumhe mujhse door kiye de raha hai aur fir main tumhe apne se door jata dekh cheekhta hu, tumhe pukaarta hu magar meri awaaz tum tak nahi pahuch rahi hai aur tum mujhse aur bhi zyada door hoti ja rahi ho. Is baat ko main sahan nahi kar pata aur is liye main aur zor se chillaata hu."
"Ye kaisa khwaab tha jai.?" Saundarya ne hairaan hote huye kaha______"Bhala koi mujhe tumse door kyo le jayega aur wo kaun tha jo mujhe tumse door le ja raha tha.?" "Pata nahi." Jai ne kahi khoye huye bhaav se kaha_____"Maine uska chehra nahi dekha magar....!"
"Magar.???" Saundarya ke maathe par shikan ubhri. "Magar ye ki tum uske sath khushi khushi ja rahi ho." Jai ne usi tarah khoyi huyi mudra me kaha______"Aur to aur tum peechhe mud ke mujhe bhi dekhti ho aur mera chillana bhi dekhti ho magar tum mujhe chillate huye dekh kar muskuraati ho jisse main tadap uthta hu aur fir se chillane lagta hu."
"Ye kya kah rahe ho tum.?" Saundarya ne avishwaas bhare lahje se kaha_____"Bhala aisa kaise ho sakta hai jai.? Main bhala kisi aur ke sath is tarah tumhe chhod kar kaise jaaugi aur tumhe us haalat me dekh kar kyo muskuraaugi.? Nahi jai nahi, ye sirf ek khwaab hai jiska hakikat se koi taalluk nahi hai. Tum achhi tarah jante ho ki main tumse kitna pyar karti hu. Tumhe chhod kar kahi aur jane ka to sawaal hi nahi paida hota."
"Tum sach kah rahi ho na.?" Jai ne ekdam se saundarya ka chehra apni hatheliyo me bhar kar kaha______"Tum sach me kabhi mujhe chhod kar nahi jaaogi na.?" "Ye kaisi baate kar rahe ho jai.?" Saundarya ne byaakul bhaav se kaha______"Bhala main tumhe chhod kar kyo jaaugi.? Tum achhi tarah jante ho ki main aisa karne ke bare me soch bhi nahi sakti hu."
"Haan, par main ye bhi janta hu." Jai ne kaha_____"Ki wo bhi tumhe chaahta hai aur tumhe pane ke liye wo kuch bhi kar sakta hai." "Ufff jai ye kya ho gaya hai tumhe.?" Saundarya ne jaise pareshaan lahje me kaha_____"Kisi aur ke chaahne se kya hota hai.? Main to nahi chaahti na use.? Main to sirf tumhe chaahti hu, wo bhi dilo jaan se aur isi liye maine tumse shadi kar ke tumhe apna jeewan sathi banaya tha. Fir kisi baat se itna hataash kyo ho rahe ho tum. Us bure khwaab ko apne zahen se nikaal do mere babu. Aisa kuch bhi nahi hoga. Hame ek dusre se koi alag nahi kar sakta. Chalo ab chup chaap let jaao aur so jaao."
Saundarya ke dwara pyar se samjhane par aakhir jai let gaya magar is baar usne saundarya ko is tarah se apni baaho me bhar liya tha jaise ki agar wo aisa nahi karega to uske so jane par saundarya ko koi sach much usse door le jayega. Yu to usne apni palke band kar li thi magar band palko ke tale neend ka door door tak kahi koi naamo nishaan nahi rah gaya tha. Mano mashtishk me uske jaise halchal si machi huyi thi. Uski baaho me samaayi huyi saundarya uske dil ki dhadkano ko saaf mahsoos kar sakti thi jo apekshakrat thodi tezi se chal rahi thi. Wo khud bhi aankhe band kiye jai ke khwaab ke bare me jane kya kya soche ja rahi thi.

"Kaise haal chaal hain pyare.?" Vidhi se baat karne ke baad dushyant ne avinash ke kamre me aate hi kaha______"Sab kuch kushal mangal to hai na tumhare.?" "Ji pahle se to behtar hu sahab ji." Avinash ne bed par upar ki taraf khisak kar bed ki pichhli pusht se tek lagate huye vinamra bhaav se kaha______"Bas haath me plaster lage hone ki vajah se thodi pareshani hai."
"Haan ham samajh sakte hain dear." Dushyant ne sir ko hilaate huye kaha______"Ek haath se har kaam kar lena asaan nahi hota. Waise ye jo kuch bhi hua hai wo kahi na kahi hamari hi laaparwaahi ki vajah se hua hai. Agar us din ham tumhare kareeb rahte to shayad ye sab kuch hota hi nahi."
"Honi ko kaun taal sakta hai sahab ji.?" Avinash ne feeki si muskaan ke sath kaha_____"Jiske sath jo kuch jab bhi hona hota hai wo to ho kar hi rahta hai. Honi ko na aap taal sakte hain aur na hi koi aur. Meri vajah se aap khud bhi pareshaan ho rahe hain. Kaash ki main aapko mila hi na hota."
"Ab is baat ko chhodo pyare." Dushyant ne jaise pahlu badalne ki garaj se kaha______"Ham sab ek dusre se tabhi milte hain jab upar baitha parwardigaar chaahta hai. Sab usi ka khel hai, usi ka mayajaal hai. Khair ham ye kahne aaye hain ki thodi hi der me hame doctor sanyaal ke paas hospital chalna hai is liye taiyar ho jaao."
"Hospital.???" Avinash ne na-samajhne wale andaz se kaha______"Wo kis liye sahab ji.?" "Ek to tum sawaal bahut karte ho pyare." Dushyant ne bura sa muh banate huye kaha______"Aree bhai waha bhi ham tumhe tumhari bhalaayi ke liye hi le kar ja rahe hain. Kya tumhe ab ham par bhi yakeen nahi raha.?"
"Nahi sahab ji." Avinash ne jaldi se kaha______"Aisi to koi baat nahi hai. Duniya me sirf aap hi aise hain jin par main aankh band kar ke bharosa karta hu. Kyo ki meri antaraatma bhi is baat ko maanti hai ki aap sab kuch mere hit ke liye hi kar rahe hain."
"That's great." Dushyant ne halki muskaan me kaha______"Ab fauran taiyar ho jaao. Ham tab tak baahar dekhte hain ki sab kuch thik thaak hua ki nahi. Taiyaar ho kar seedha baahar aa hi jana." "Ji sahab ji." Avinash ne kaha. Jabki uski ye baat sunne ke baad dushyant muskurata hua kamre se baahar nikal gaya.
Kareeb das minute baad special police officers se ghire huye dushyant aur avinash police gipsy me baithe doctor sanyaal ke hospital ki taraf badhte ja rahe the. Gipsy ke aage piche special police wale puri tarah se chaak chauband ho kar dusri jeepo me chal rahe the. Unke aage kareeb pachaas miter ki doori par do do moter sycle par dusre police wale chal rahe the aur isi tarah pichhe bhi chal rahe the. Matlab saaf tha ki agar pichhli baar ki tarah koi bhaari waahan saamne se aata dikhe to use wahi par rukwa kar pahle uski checking ki jayegi aur jab sab kuch thik thaak nazar aayega tab ye kaafila aage badh chalega. Inspector dushyant ab kisi bhi tarah ki laaparwaahi bhool se bhi nahi karna chaahta tha.
Kareeb das minute baad ye kaafila JCB hospital ke saamne aa kar ruka. Special police walo ne fauran hi dushyant aur avinash ko apne ghere me le liya aur fir unke sath hi hospital ke andar ki taraf badh chale. Kuch officers baahar gaadiyo ke paas hi khade rah gaye. Aisa is liye taaki agar naqaab wale ka koi sathi kahi chhup ke baitha ho to unke jane ke baad wo aadmi dushyant wali gipsy me kisi prakaar ka bumb wagaira na laga sake.
Kuch hi der me dushyant avinash ke sath doctor sanyaal ke cabin me pahuch gaya. Cabin ke baahar special police wale mustaidi se khade ho gaye. Dushyant ne doctor sanyaal ko pahle hi is baat ke liye taakeed kar diya tha ki unke aane se hospital me kisi bhi tarah ki koi ajeeb halchal na ho. Dushyant ne sanyaal ko ye bhi samjha diya tha ki use khud kya karna hai.
Cabin ke andar kuch der tak normal baat cheet hoti rahi uske baad dushyant ke ishare par sanyaal ne avinash ko apne sath aane ko kaha. Avinash ne pahle dushyant ki taraf dekha aur jab dushyant ne use ishare se sanyaal ke sath jane ko kaha to wo uth kar chal diya. Cabin se baahar aate hi special police wale avinash ki security ka dhyaan rakhte huye un dono ke sath us kamre tak gaye jaha par sanyaal avinash ka check up karne wala tha.
Kareeb aadhe ghante baad doctor sanyaal avinash ko liye waapas cabin me aaya. Kahne ki zarurat nahi ki unke peechhe special police wale bhi un dono ko cover kiye huye aa gaye the.
"Tum bewajah chinta kar rahe the dushyant." Doctor sanyaal ne dushyant se rahasyamayi andaaz me kaha______"Avinash ka hath bahut jald thik ho jayega aur kyo ki plaster chadha hai to ise puri tarah thik hone me time to lagega hi. Baaki maine sab kuch dekh liya hai. Us doctor ne sahi se ilaaz kiya hai aur zakhm bhi bhar rahe hain."
"Tum nahi samajh sakte pyare." Dushyant ne maano dukh prakat karte huye kaha______"Is masoom ke sath ye jo kuch bhi hua hai wo sirf aur sirf hamari laparwaahi ki vajah se hua hai. Agar ise kuch ho jata to ham kabhi apne aapko maaf nahi kar pate. Hamne isse wada kiya tha ki ab ise koi chhu bhi nahi sakta magar dekh lo....ham apne waade ko pura nahi kar sake aur is bechare ko apna hath tudwa lena pada."
"Baat to tumhari thik hai dushyant." Doctor sanyaal ne kaha______"Magar ab jo ho gaya usko badal to nahi sakte ho na tum aur kya avinash nahi janta ki ye jo kuch bhi hua hai usme tumhari apni koi galti nahi thi. Khair chhodo itna zyada hataash na ho. Sab kuch bahut jald thik ho jayega. Achha ab mujhe jana hoga kyo ki ek mareez ko bhi dekhna hai mujhe."
Doctor sanyaal ki in baato ke baad dushyant bhi chair se uth kar khada ho gaya aur sath hi avinash bhi. Sanyaal ke cabin se baahar aa kar dushyant aur avinash fir se special officers ke suraksha ghere me aa gaye aur fir hospital se baahar aa kar waise hi waapas chal pade jaise aaye the. Raaste me kahi bhi kisi tarah ki sandigdh baat nahi huyi. Das minute baad ye kaafila vidhi ke bangle par pahuch gaya.
Dushyant aur avinash ghar ke andar dring room me aa kar sofo par baith gaye. Avinash ke chehre aur sir par abhi bhi pattiya lagi huyi thi. Uski haalat pahle se ab behtar thi. Un dono ke aane ke baad vidhi ne dono ko chaay la kar di. Chaay ke dauraan normal baat cheet hi huyi. Doctor sanyaal ki baato se avinash ko bhi pata chal chuka tha ki dushyant use hospital kyo le kar gaya tha. Use andar hi andar is baat ki behad khushi ho rahi thi ki dushyant uske liye kitna fikarmand tha. Chaay pine ke baad dushyant ne avinash ko apne room me ja kar araam karne ko kaha to wo sofe se uth kar chala gaya.
"Baat kuch samajh me nahi aayi." Avinash ke jane ke kuch der baad vidhi ne saamne wale sofe par baithte hi dushyant se kaha______"Yu achanak avinash ko doctor sanyaal ke paas le jane ka kya matlab tha tumhara.? Kahi aisa to nahi ki tumhe ye andesha hai ki us accident se uski yaad daast waapas aa gayi ho sakti hai.?"
"Waah kya baat hai." Dushyant ne tapaak se muskurate huye kaha_____"Mere zahen me kya hai ye sab tumhe pata chal jata hai. Ab is baat ko main kya samjhu.?" "Main tumhara sir fod dugi agar zyada samajhne ki baat ki to." Vidhi ne aankhe dikhaate huye kaha_______"Har wakt bas yahi sochte rahte ho tum.?"
"Har wakt kaha sochta hu yaar.?" Dushyant ne bura sa muh banate huye kaha_______"Bas kabhi kabhi jab dil ke andar dabe huye jazbaat machalne lagte hain. Sorry....magar is par mera koi zor nahi hai." "To kya kaha doctor ne.?" Vidhi ne jaise uski baat par dhyaan na dete huye kaha. Is baat se dushyant ke andar ek tees si ubhri magar usne shakhti se use daba liya fir bola______"Abhi to kuch nahi bola. Wo to report dekhne ke baad hi bolega na."
"Aur report kab dekhega wo.?" Vidhi ne pucha. "Shayad kal." Dushyant ne kandhe uchkaate huye kaha_____"Achha ab main thane ja raha hu. Kuch apni bhi duty baja lu warna department mujhe police ki naukari se nikaal dega."
"Thik hai." Vidhi ne kaha______"Tum jaao, mujhe bhi "Door ki kaudi" ko aaj finish karna hai." "Door ki kaudi.???" Dushyant ke maathe par bal pada. "Aree ved prakash sharma ke novel ki baat kar rahi hu." Vidhi ne kaha______"Kitna jaldi bhool jate ho tum. Bhulakkad kahi ke."
"Jab tum aise lahje me bolti ho na." Dushyant ne raazdarana andaaz me kaha______"To pata hai mujhe kaisa feel hota hai.?" "Achha ji." Vidhi ne jaise chaunkne ki acting ki_____"Zara main bhi to sunu ki kaisa feel hota hai tumhe.?"
"Jane do." Dushyant ne muskurate huye kaha______"Bas mujhe feel karne do. Agar bata diya to khamakha tum gussa ho jaaogi jo ki main kisi bhi keemat par nahi chaahta....achha ab bye bye."
"Thahro." Vidhi ne jaise pure adhikaar ke sath hukum diya fir boli______"Pahle mujhe bataao ki mere us lahje me tum kaisa feel karte ho.? Uske baad hi yaha se jaaoge warna soch lena fir." "Aree ye to sarasar mujh masoom par atyachaar hai." Dushyant ne jaise shikayati lahje me kaha______"Tum har baat par mujhe dhamkane kyo lagti ho yaar.?"
"Tum aur masoom.???" Vidhi ne use ghoora______"Aur maine kab dhamkaya tumhe.? Jhoothe kahi ke....chalo ab baate na banaao aur mujhe saaf saaf bataao ki kya feel karne lagte ho tum.?" "Kya sach me batana padega.?" Dushyant ne jaise dharam sankat me fas kar puchha.
"Haan batana hi padega." Vidhi ne ispast lahje me kaha______"Warna ye tumhare liye achha nahi hoga. Ab jaldi se bataao mujhe." "Hey bhagwan!" Dushyant ne man hi man bhagwan ko yaad karte huye kaha______"Ye kis musibat me daal diya mujhe.? Laanat ho mujh par jo maine waisa bol diya tha."
"Kya sochne lage.?" Vidhi ki awaaz se wo chaunka. "Dekho tum bura mat maanna." Dushyant ne usse darne ka pradarshan karte huye kaha_______"Asal me baat ye hai ki jab tum mujhe aise lahje me daanti ho to mujhe aisa feel hone lagta hai jaise ki main is duniya ka sabse bechara pati hu tumhara."
"Kyaaa kaha.?????" Vidhi ne buri tarah chaunkte huye aur aankhe faad kar kaha. "Dekho main ek hi baat ko baar baar nahi bol sakta." Dushyant ne bifar jane ki acting ki______"Tumhe sunaayi nahi diya to ye tumhari problem hai. Ab main ja raha hu byeeeee."
Aur dushyant sach much vidhi ki koi baat sune bina jaise waha se rafu chakkar ho gaya. Jabki uski baate sun kar vidhi hairaani se usko darwaze ki taraf jate huye dekhti rah gayi. Jab wo darwaza khol kar baahar nikal gaya tab jaise uski tandra tooti. Uske zahen me abhi bhi dushyant ki wo baat goonj rahi thi. Achanak hi uske chehre ke bhaav badle aur fir eka ek hi uske chehre par haya ki surkhi ubhar aayi. Gulaab ki pankhudiyo jaise hotho par halki si muskaan ubhar aayi. Fir jaise use kuch khayaal aaya to wo tezi se darwaze ki taraf badhi aur fir darwaze ko band kar diya. Uske baad wo mand mand muskuraati huyi upar apne kamre ki taraf badh gayi.

Dosto, Waade ke mutaabik ek update taiyar kar ke haazir kar diya hai. Ghar me shadi hai is liye kuch zyada hi byastata rahegi to mumkin hai ki kuch time tak update na de paau. Halaaki agar mujhe wakt milega to thoda bahut likhne se nahi chukunga aur agar update complete kar paya to use post zarur karuga. Shukriya,,,,,
"Kyaaa kaha.?????" Vidhi ne buri tarah chaunkte huye aur aankhe faad kar kaha. "Dekho main ek hi baat ko baar baar nahi bol sakta." Dushyant ne bifar jane ki acting ki______"Tumhe sunaayi nahi diya to ye tumhari problem hai. Ab main ja raha hu byeeeee."
Aur dushyant sach much vidhi ki koi baat sune bina jaise waha se rafu chakkar ho gaya. Jabki uski baate sun kar vidhi hairaani se usko darwaze ki taraf jate huye dekhti rah gayi.

Ab Aage,,,,,
Inspector dushyant vidhi se kah kar gaya tha ki wo thane ja raha hai jabki uske man me kuch aur hi chal raha tha. JCB hospital me jab doctor sanyaal avinash ko le kar chala gaya tha tab cabin me dushyant akela hi rah gaya tha aur tabhi usne apne jigri yaar sub-inspector yaswant ko phone kar ke milne ke liye bulaya tha. Yaswant ne apne zaruri kaam niptane ke baad hi usse milne aane ko kaha tha. Inspector dushyant ne use apne thaane par milne ki bajaay ek bar me milne ko kaha tha.
Us wakt shaam ho chali thi aur shaam ka dhundhalka chhane laga tha. Dushyant bar me ek kursi par baitha chaay ki chuskiya le raha tha. Is wakt saade kapdo me tha. Jis jagah wo baitha tha waha se bar ka exit door ka raasta dikhta tha, jaha se aane wala koi bhi insaani jeev use asani se nazar aa sakta tha. Kareeb paanch minute baad uska intzaar khatam hua. Exit door ki taraf wale raaste se use sub inspector yaswant aata dikhaayi diya. Dushyant ke kahne par wo saade kapdo me hi aaya tha. Asal me dushyant nahi chaahta tha ki naqaab wale ka koi bhediya agar uske pichhe laga hua ho to wo use is tarah se yaswant se milte huye dekh le.
Yaswant jab is taraf aaya to dushyant ne apne ek hath ko upar utha kar hilate huye use ishara kiya jisse yaswant ki nazar us par pad gayi aur wo uski taraf hi aane laga. Kuch hi palo me yaswant table ke us paar rakhi dusri kursi par aa kar baith gaya.
"Ham tumhari yaad me kab se tadap rahe the pyare." Dushyant ne apne chir parichit andaaz me muskurate huye kaha_____"Aur ek tum the ki hame tadpaye hi ja rahe the....tadpaye hi ja rahe the. Itna julm to kisi dilruba ne apne mahboob par na kiya hoga meri jaan jitna ki tum karte ho."
"Yaar kyo mood kharaab kar rahe ho mera.?" Yaswant ne bura sa muh banate huye kaha______"Ye ghatiya harkate karna kab band karoge tum.?" "Jab hamare ek darjan bachche tumhara khoon choosne lagenge pyare." Dushyant ne kaha______"Sach kahte hain dear usi din se ham aisi shandar harkate karna sire se band kar denge."
"Baat agar avinash ke maamle ki na hoti." Yaswant ne teekhe bhaav se kaha______"To main yaha tumhari ye bakwas sunne kabhi nahi aata." "Hamari pyar ke meethe ras se bhari baate tumhe bakwas lagti hain.?" Dushyant ne dukh bhare bhaav se kaha______"Jabki ham puri koshish karte hain ki ham jab bhi tumse mile to apne shabdo me pyaar ki meethi meethi chaashni ko piro kar baat kare. Taaki hamari baate seedha tumhare patthar dil ko chakna choor kar de aur tum hamari mohabbat ko kabool kar lo."
"Ab agar tumhari bakwas ho gayi ho." Yaswant ne sapaat lahje me kaha______"To asal mudde ki baat kare.?" "Gadde ki.???" Dushyant chaunka______"Abhi se gadde ki baat kyo karte ho pyare.? Abhi to hamara pyar hi parwaan par nahi chadha. Gadde wala kaam to baad me aayega na meri jaan.?"
"Ok fine ja raha hu main." Yaswant gusse me kahne ke sath hi kursi se khada ho gaya. "Aise chhod ke na jaao bewafa sanam." Dushyant ne ro dene wale andaaz se kaha______"Abhi to hame tumhare sath ishq ki kabaddiya khelni hain....aur to aur tumse ye bhi jaanna hai ki hamare police mahkame me aisa kaun sa kambakht hai jo vibheeshan ban ke baitha hai.?"
"Ab aaye na line par." Yaswant ne usse ghoorte huye kaha aur waapas kursi par baith gaya. "Line par to hamesha rahte hain pyare." Dushyant ne packet se nikaal kar ek cigarette jalayi aur fir packet yaswant ki taraf badha diya, fir bola______"Bas jab bhi tumhe dekhte hain to dil ki ghantiya bajne lagti hain aur fir tumse dillagi karne lagte hain. Khair chhodo tum kya jaano dil aur dillagi kya cheez hoti hai. Tum bas ye bataao ki tumne ab tak kya kiya is maamle me.?"
"Vikrant ke aane se." Yaswant ne cigarette jalane ke baad kaha______"Maine is maamle me interest lena chhod diya tha magar tumhare kahne par fir se is maamle me sir khafana shuru kar diya tha. Khair tumhare kahne par maine ek baar fir se un sabhi jagaho ki baariki se taftees ki magar result kuch nahi nikla jo ki ashcharya ki hi baat hai. Pichhli baar ki tarah hi nateeja nikla hai. Kahne ka matlab ye ki pichhli baar jo kuch pata chala tha usse aage aur kuch pata nahi chala. Uske baad tumne is baat ka pata lagane ko kaha ki naqaab wale se tumhare police department ka koi aadmi mila hua hai jo pal pal ki khabar use pahuchata hai to maine iske bare me bhi pata kiya magar tumhe yakeen nahi hoga ki is bare me bhi kuch khaas pata nahi chala."
"Kamaal karte ho pyare." Dushyant ne dher sara dhuna hawa me chhodne ke baad kaha______"Laut ke buddhu ghar ko aaye wali baat ho gayi ye to. Bhala aisa kaise ho sakta hai dear ki is maamle me kuch pata hi na chale.? Khair chhodo, ye 101% sach baat hai pyare ki hamare mahkame ka koi police wala us naqaab wale se mila hua hai aur use har pal ki khabar deta hai. Thane me hamare gine chune log hain aur unhi me se koi aisa hai jo is tarah ka kaand kar raha hai. Sirf itni si baat ka pata nahi laga paye tum.....kaise police wale ho bhai.?"
"Tumhare kahne par." Yaswant ne kaha______"Maine un sabhi police walo ke phone numbers ke call record nikalwaye hain aur itna hi nahi un sabhi ko ek ek kar ke apne aadmiyo se check bhi karwaya hai. Mere aadmiyo ne un sabhi ka ek ek kar ke pichha kiya tha aur unki har activity ko watch kiya tha magar report waisi nahi mili jaisi ki aashanka thi. Matlab saaf hai ki ya to tumhare mahkame ka koi policiya us naqaab wale se mila hua nahi hai ya fir agar mila hua hai bhi to wo apne har kaam ko badi safaayi se anjaam deta hai. Mujhe lagta hai ki bahut hi shaatir hai wo."
"Shaatir praani ka chela shaatir hi hoga pyare." Dushyant ne kuch sochte huye kaha______"Aisa bhi to ho sakta hai ki mahkame ka jo police wala us naqaab wale se mila hua hai uske paas koi secret number ho jisse wo naqaab wale ko phone kar ke suchna deta ho."
"Yaani ki do number honge.?" Yaswant ne kaha______"Ek wo number jo police ki jankari me hai aur dusra wo number jo sirf naqaab wala jaanta hai.?" "Bilkul." Dushyant ne kaha______"Do do number rakhna koi badi baat nahi hai, balki aaj kal to log do kya balki chaar number bhi rakhte hain apne paas. Kuch log to chaar chaar mobile phone hi liye ghumte hain. Ek mobile me do sim card padte hain. Us hisaab se chaar mobile me aath phone number ho jate hain. Kahne ka matlab ye ki aisa yakeenan ho sakta hai ki jo police wala vibhishan bana hua hai uske paas koi dusra number bhi hai jiske bare me hame nahi pata hai jabki naqaab wale se us number par barabar baat hoti rahti hai."
"Ye to sach baat hai ki har mobile me do sim card padte hain." Yaswant ne kaha______"Aur aise kam hi log hote hain jo mobile me ek hi sim card rakhna pasand karte honge. Ab hame ye pata karna hoga ki department me jin jin logo ke paas mobile hai unke mobiles me ek se zyada sim card hain ya nahi aur agar hain to hame us dusre number ki jankari chahiye."
"Hame lagta hai pyare ki aisa karne se bhi kuch haath nahi lagne wala." Dushyant ne kaha______"Aisa is liye kyo ki jo police wala us naqaab wale se mila hua hoga wo apne us mobile par wo dusra sim card kyo daal ke rakhega jisse ki use fas jana pade.? Matlab saaf hai dear ki dusra wala number kisi dusre mobile phone me hi daal ke rakhega wo...aur wo bhi switch off kar ke. Wo us mobile ko tabhi on karega jab use us naqaab wale se baat karni hogi."
"Ye bhi thik kaha tumne." Yaswant ne kaha______"Iska matlab hame ye pata karna hoga ki kis kis ke paas do do mobile phones hain.? Halaaki do do mobile phones aaj kal bahut se log rakhte hain magar jo vibhishan hoga wo apna dusra mobile phone chhupa ke hi rakhega. Hame usi phone ko talaash karna hai."
"Bilkul." Dushyant ne kaha______"Agar wo number hamare hath lag gaya to uske call record se hame naqaab wale tak pahuchne ka raasta asaani se mil jayega." "Baat to thik hai." Yaswant ne kaha_____"Magar us dusre mobile ka pata kaise lagayenge ham.?"
"Uske liye mujrimo wala kaam karna hoga pyare." Dushyant ne kaha______"Thane me jitne bhi police wale hain un sabki talaashi gupt roop se leni padegi aur agar zarurat pade to unke gharo me bhi gupt tarike se talaashi leni padegi. Hame pura yakeen hai ki aisa karne se hame kamyaabi zarur milegi."
"Waise tumhare khayaal se." Yaswant ne dushyant ki taraf gaur se dekhte huye kaha______"Aisa kaun police wala ho sakta hai jo us naqaab wale se mila hua hai.?" "Tum to jante ho pyare ki ham police wale apne baap ko bhi shak ki nazar se dekhte hain." Dushyant ne ajeeb bhaav se kaha______"Is liye jab baat aise maamle ki ho to shak har kisi par hota hai lekin shak bhale hi har kisi par ho magar hakikat ye hoti hai ki har koi gunahgaar ya mujrim nahi hota. Balki mujrim koi ek hi hota hai. Filhaal to ham kisi ke bhi bare me ye nahi kah sakte ki wo naqaab wale se mila hua hai. Halaaki hamari jaane-bahaar ko pura shak hai ki sub-inspector vikrant hi wo shakhs hai jo naqaab wale se mila hua hai."
"Tumhara matlab vidhi se hai.??" Yaswant ne jaise dushyant ko ghoorte huye puchha. "Tumhare alawa is duniya me ek wahi hai pyare." Dushyant ne halki muskaan ke sath kaha______"Jo hamari jaane-bahaar ban chuki hai." "Oh i see." Yaswant ne gahri saans li, fir bola______"Lekin wo bhala vikrant ko kis base par kah rahi hai ki wo naqaab wale se mila hua hai...aur kya tumhe bhi yahi lagta hai.?"
"Hame to aisa nahi lagta pyare." Dushyant ne kaha______"Par hone ko to kuch bhi ho sakta hai. Yaani aisa ho bhi sakta hai ki vikrant hi wo vibhishan ho jo naqaab wale se mila hua hai. Hamari jaane bahaar ko us par is liye shak hai kyo ki ek to aise waqt me wo yaha transfer ho kar aaya hai jabki avinash ka maamla haal hi me thoda aage badhta hua prateet hua tha. Dusre us din jo accident hua wo bhi us par shak karne ki ek vajah ban gaya. Kahne ka matlab ye ki avinash ko vidhi ke ghar shift karne ki baat hame aur vidhi ke alawa sirf use hi pata thi. Us din jis tarike se accident hua usse saaf pata chalta hai ki wo accident pahle se hi planned tha. Warna tum khud socho my dear ki naqaab wale ko kaise pata ho sakta hai ki accident karne ke liye use do trucko ki zarurat hai.? Chalo hamne ye maan liya ki naqaab wale ka koi aadmi ham par nazar rakhta raha hoga magar avinash ko vidhi ke ghar shift karne ki baat to secret thi na. Dusri baat agar ham ye bhi maan le ki naqaab wale ka koi aadmi kahi se chhup kar ye dekh raha hoga ki avinash ko kis tarike se hamare flat se laya ja raha hai tab bhi ain wakt par itna perfect tarike se us sab ko anjaam dena us naqaab wale ke liye asaan nahi tha. Matlab saaf hai pyare ki use sab kuch pahle se pata tha aur tabhi usne us accident ko safalta poorwak anjaam dene ka plan banaya tha. Ab sawaal ye hai ki naqaab wale ko kisne bataya ki avinash ko hamare flat se kis tarike ki security ke sath fala raaste se laya ja raha hai.?"
"Baat to yakeenan point wali hai dushyant." Yaswant ke chehre par sochne wale bhaav ubhar aaye the, bola______"Vidhi ko agar vikrant par shak hai to galat nahi hai. Halaaki sochne wali baat to ye bhi hai ki vikrant jaisa kaabil aur imaandaar police wala kisi mujrim ka sath kyo dega.? Uska bedaag character is baat ko hajam karane ke liye na-kaafi hai ki wo aisa kuch kar sakta hai. Mumkin hai ki koi dusra hi police wala us naqaab wale se mila hua hoga."
"Sambhaavnaao se kuch nahi hoga pyare." Dushyant ne ek dusri cigarette sulgane ke baad kaha______"Kisi bhi cheez ko saabit karne ke liye pramaad ki zarurat hoti hai, jo ki filhaal hamare paas nahi hai. Isi liye to kah rahe hain ki thane ke har police wale ki baariki se talaash leni hogi hame. Wo bhi is tarike se ki is baat ki zara si bhi bhanak na lag sake un logo ko. Waise hame yakeen hai ki thane ka koi hawaldaar hi hoga jisne kuch paiso ke liye apne imaan ko bench diya hai."
"Chalo thik hai." Yaswant ne kaha______"Tumhare kahne par main tumhare thane ke police walo ki baariki se talaashi lene ka kaam aaj se hi shuru kar duga. Waise us accident ke baad ab avinash ki haalat kaisi hai.? Mera matlab hai ki uski yaad daast waapas aayi ki nahi.?"
"To tumhara bhi yahi maanna hai pyare." Dushyant ne cigarette ka gahra kash lene ke baad kaha______"Ki accident ke chalte uski memory waapas aa gayi hogi.? Jabki doctor sanyaal ka kahna tha ki aise cases me agar insaan ki memory waapas aa bhi gayi to ye us insaan par depend karta hai ki wo is baat ko accept kare. Yaani agar mareej na bataye ki uski memory waapas aa gayi hai to doctor ke paas uski memory waapas aane ki baat ko saabit karne ka koi raasta nahi ho sakta."
"To tumhe kya lagta hai.?" Yaswant ne kaha______"Avinash apni yaad daast waapas aa jane ki baat ko accept nahi karega.?" "Lagta to yahi hai pyare." Dushyant ne kaha______"Kyo ki memory waapas aane ke baad use apne past ka sab kuch yaad aa jayega aur jo kuch bhi ab tak uske sath hua tha us baat se uske andar badle ki bhaavna aa jana koi hairat ki baat nahi hogi. Us surat me wo nahi chaahega ki uski raah me roda banne ke liye police ya police ka koi numaainda uske saamne aa jaye."
"To kya iska matlab ye hua." Yaswant ne kaha_____"Ki doctor dwara check up karwane ka bhi koi faayda nahi hoga.?" "Faayda to yakeenan hoga pyare." Dushyant ne apne hi andaaz me kaha_____"Doctor ke check up se bhale hi kuch na pata chale kekin agar avinash ki memory waapas aa gayi hogi to wo is baat ko zyada dino tak chhupa nahi sakega. Insaan apni fitrat nahi badal sakta. Yaad daast jane ke baad bhale hi wo kuch aur hi ban gaya raha ho magar jab uski memory waapas aa jayegi to wo waisa hi ban jayega jaisa ki wo yaad daast jane ke pahle tha. Hamne use is roop me dekha hai lekin jab uski yaad daast aa chuki hogi to uske is roop me yakeenan badlaav aayega aur uska wahi badlaav ye saabit bhi karega ki ab uski memory waapas aa gayi hai. Uske bure karm uske na chaahne ke baavjud ubhar kar saamne aayege."
"Agar aisa hai." Yaswant ne gahri saans li_____"To fir us shakhs ka pata lagane ki kya zarurat hai jo us naqaab wale se mila hua hai.? Kahne ka matlab ye ki jaise hi hame ye yakeen hota hai ki avinash ki memory waapas aa gayi hai to ham usse saaf lafzo me is sabke bare me puchh lenge. Use batana hi padega ki uske sath ye sab jo kuch hua hai wo kyo hua hai aur kisne kiya hai.?"
"Mana ki hame usse is sabke bare me pata chal jayega pyare." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Magar wo ye to nahi bata payega na ki jisne uske sath ye sab kiya hai wo aaj ki date me kaha par paya ja raha hai.? Yahi problem avinash ke samne bhi khadi hogi jab use apne ateet ke bare me sab kuch yaad aa jayega. Uske liye bhi us naqaab wale ko khojna asaan nahi hoga aur hamare bich rah kar mumkin hai ki wo use khojne ka soche bhi na. Jabki ham apne source se naqaab wale ka pata khoj sakte hain aur ye tabhi hoga jab uska bhediya hamare hath lag jaye."
"You are right." Yaswant ne kaha______"Waise wo naqaab wala bhi to yahi sochta hoga ki uske dwara kiye gaye us accident se mumkin hai ki avinash ki memory waapas aa gayi ho. Is baat ko samajhte huye wo is baar avinash ko kidnap karne ka vichaar bana sakta hai....kya lagta hai tumhe.?"
"Beshak aisa ho sakta hai pyare." Dushyant ne sir ko haan me hilaate huye kaha_____"Lekin is baar uske liye avinash tak pahuchna asaan nahi hoga. Uska koi bhi plan is baar kaam nahi karega." "Aisa hona bhi chahiye." Yaswant ne kaha______"Warna agar usne is baar avinash ke sath ya kisi bhi police wale ke sath kuch bhi ulta seedha kiya to tumhari naukari ke lene ke dene pad jayege."
"Tum to chaahte hi yahi ho pyare ki hamari naukari ke sath sath hamara bhi bantadhaar ho jaye." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Magar ham tumhari ye chaahat puri nahi hone denge." "Meri chaahat ki chhod." Yaswant ne kaha______"Apni chaahat ke bare me bata. Vidhi ke sath teri story kaha tak pahuchi.?"
"Ab kya bataye pyare." Dushyant ne dukhi hone ka naatak karte huye kaha______"Ham to story ko us tak pahuchane ki har baar koshish karte hain magar uska mizaaj dekh kar hame U turn lena pad jata hai. Samajh me nahi aata ki kab aisa din aayega jab ham uski kaali ghani aur haseen zulfo ke niche let kar usse ishq farmayenge.?"
"Ohh aisa kya.?" Yaswant muskuraya______"Aise me dil to bahut dukhta hoga na tumhara.?" "Bas ye samajh lo pyare." Dushyant ne jaise apne dil ka haal bayaan karte huye kaha_____"Ki agar ham sach much ke mard na hote to is dard se gala faad faad ke cheekhte aur aankho se ganga jamuna ek sath bahane lagte."
"Yaani ki aaj kal." Yaswant ne kaha_____"Har taraf se tumhari durdasha ho rahi hai." "Ishq jise ho jaye." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Uske sath to yahi hota hai pyare. Khair chhodo is baat ko....ab ham chalte hain. Tumhe jo kaha hai us kaam ko jald se jald anjaam tak pahuchaao aur hame achhi khabar sunaao. Us naqaab wale ko ham murga banane ke liye tadap rahe hain."
Inspector dushyant ki ye baat sun kar yaswant muskuraya aur fir dono hi bar se baahar ki taraf chal pade. Counter ke paas pahuch kar dushyant ne chaay ke paise de diye. Bar se baahar aa kar dono hi apni apni jeepo me baith kar apne apne raaste ki taraf chal diye the.
"Yaani ki aaj kal." Yaswant ne kaha_____"Har taraf se tumhari durdasha ho rahi hai."
"Ishq jise ho jaye." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Uske sath to yahi hota hai pyare. Khair chhodo is baat ko....ab ham chalte hain. Tumhe jo kaha hai us kaam ko jald se jald anjaam tak pahuchaao aur hame achhi khabar sunaao. Us naqaab wale ko ham murga banane ke liye tadap rahe hain."
Inspector dushyant ki ye baat sun kar yaswant muskuraya aur fir dono hi bar se baahar ki taraf chal pade. Counter ke paas pahuch kar dushyant ne chaay ke paise de diye. Bar se baahar aa kar dono hi apni apni jeepo me baith kar apne apne raaste ki taraf chal diye the.
Ab Aage,,,,,,
Us wakt shaam ke saadhe aath baj rahe the jab inspector dushyant vidhi ke ghar pahucha tha. Thane ki report usne vikrant se phone par hi le liya tha. Vidhi ke bangle ke charo taraf special trained police officers security ke liye tainaat the. Iske alawa cctv camera aur kuch aise sensors bhi lage huye the jiski vajah se agar koi bhi ajnabi boundary ko paar karte huye andar ghusne ki koshish karega to sensors ki vajah se security officer ko waha maujud system ke dwara fauran hi pata chal jayega. Boundary wall se ya main gate se wahi andar ja sakta tha jiska pahle se hi scan kar ke jaanch kar liya gaya tha. Kahne ka matlab ye ki is baar inspector dushyant ne avinash ke sath sath vidhi ki bhi security ka pukhta intjaam kar rakha tha. Naqaab wala is baar ghar ke andar ghusne ki moorkhta hargiz bhi nahi kar sakta tha.
Dushyant ke door bell bajane par vidhi ne darwaza khola. Dushyant ke andar aate hi usne darwaze ko andar se kundi laga kar band kar diya. Uske baad dushyant ke piche piche wo andar aa gayi. Vidhi ko chup dekh kar dushyant ko thoda hairaani huyi. Kyo ki uske aate hi wo koi na koi baat shuru kar deti thi magar is wakt wo chup thi.
"Kya hua.?" Sofe par baithte hi dushyant ne vidhi ki taraf dekhte huye kaha______"Itni chup si kyo ho.? Kuch baat ho gayi hai kya.?"
"Fresh ho kar aao." Vidhi ne sapaat bhaav se kaha_____"Tab tak main khana lagati hu."
"Aree bataao na kya hua hai.?" Dushyant ekdam se fikarmand hote huye bola_____"Tum is tarah chup kyo ho vidhi.? Iske pahle to mere aate hi tum koi na koi baat shuru hi kar deti thi. Mujhe sach sach bataao ki aisa kya hua hai yaha jiski vajah se tum ekdam shaant dikh rahi ho. Agar kisi ne tumhe kuch kaha hai to bejhijhak bata do main uski achhi khaasi khabar luga."
"Aisi koi baat nahi hai." Vidhi ne pahle jaise hi sapaat bhaav se kaha_____"Tum jaao fresh ho lo. Main khana lagati hu."
"Main kahi nahi jane wala." Dushyant kahne ke sath hi sofe se khada ho gaya aur fir vidhi ke paas ja kar bola______"Main pahle ye jaanna chaahta hu ki meri dost itni shaant aur chup kyo hai.? Aakhir kya hua hai meri sabse pyari aur masoom si dost ko. Plz bataao vidhi, tum jaanti ho ki main tumhe is tarah shaant aur chup haalat me nahi dekh sakta."
"Kya bataau.?" Vidhi ne dushyant ki taraf dekhte huye badi masumiyat se kaha______"Tum hi to kahte rahte ho ki main tumhe hamesha aise daatti rahti hu ki uski vajah se tumhe alag tarah ki feeling aane lagti hai. Is liye maine ab soch liya hai ki ab se main tumhe kuch bhi nahi kahugi."
"My god." Dushyant ne chakit bhaav se kaha______"To tum sirf is vajah se is tarah shaant aur chup thi.?"
"Haan aur nahi to kya." Vidhi ne usi masumiyat se kaha.
"Tum meri dost ho vidhi." Dushyant ne sahsa uske dono kandhe pakad kar kaha_____"Aur tumhe pura hak hai mujhse kisi bhi lahje me baat karne ka. Maine to tumhe chhedne ke liye waisa bola tha, jabki sach ye hai ki jab tum us tarah ke lahje me mujhse baate karti ho aur daatti ho to mujhe bahut achha lagta hai. Ye bhi sach hai ki mujhe tumhare kareeb rahna aur tumse baate karna achha lagta hai magar main ye kabhi nahi chaah sakta ki meri vajah se tumhare chaand se chehre par zara si bhi udaasi aaye. Tumhe pata nahi hai magar sach ye hai ki meri zindagi me kabhi koi ladki nahi aayi aur na hi maine kabhi kisi ko apne kareeb aane diya magar sirf tum aisi ho jiska sab kuch achha lagta hai mujhe aur main chaahta hu ki hamari dosti hamesha bani rahe. Haan agar tumhe mujhse kisi baat ka aitraaz ho to bejhijhak bol dena. Bas yu samajh lo ki main khud ko to hazaaro dukh de sakta hu magar tumhe dukh dene ke bare me soch bhi nahi sakta. Ab is baat ko tum meri chaahat samjho ya fir dosti."
"Itna senti hone ki koi zarurat nahi hai." Vidhi ne sahsa bura sa muh banate huye kaha______"Main to bas ye dekh rahi thi ki mere chup rahne par tum kaisa react karte ho. Mujhe nahi pata tha ki tum meri itni si baat par devdas type ban jaaoge. Ab jaao jaldi se fresh ho kar aao. Buddhu kahi ke."
Vidhi ne tunak mizaaji ke sath kaha aur fir palat kar kitchen ki taraf badh gayi. Dusri taraf jaise hi uska chehra hua to uske gulaabi hotho par bahut hi gahri muskaan ubhar aayi thi jise dushyant nahi dekh sakta tha. Jabki uske is tarah bolne par dushyant pahle to chaunka fir ye soch kar muskurate huye washroom ki taraf badh gaya ki is ladki ki har ada dil me gudgudi kar deti hai.
Washroom se fresh ho kar dushyant aaya to dono ne sath hi baith kar khana khaya. Khane ke dauraan dushyant ne vidhi se puchha tha ki avinash ne khaya ki nahi to jawaab me vidhi ne bata diya tha ki usne sabse pahle usi ko khana diya tha. Dono aamne saamne kursiyo par baithe khana kha rahe the. Dushyant jaha khana khane me byast tha wahi vidhi baar baar use chor nazro se dekh kar muskura deti thi. Khana khane ke baad dushyant dring room me aa gaya jabki vidhi khane ke bartan samet kar kitchen ki taraf badh gayi.
Kareeb bees minute baad vidhi waapas aayi aur dring room me dushyant ke saamne wale sofe par baith gayi. Dono ke beech kuch der tak khamoshi chhaayi rahi. Jaise dono ke paas kahne ke liye kuch tha hi nahi. Jaha dushyant ke zahen me is wakt avinash aur naqaab wale se sambandhit baate chal rahi thi wahi vidhi dushyant ke bare me soch rahi thi. Uske gore saffaak chehre par halki surkhi chhaayi huyi thi jo is baat ka prateek thi ki uske andar dushyant ke liye koi sweet si feeling uske man me gudgudi kar rahi thi.
"Kal wakeel uncle aane wale hain." Gahan khamoshi ko cheerte huye aakhir vidhi ne kaha_____"Maine bataya tha na tumhe.?"
"Ohh haan yaad hai mujhe." Dushyant halke se chaunkte huye bola______"Tum unse mil lena aur agar is sab ke bare me puche to bejhijhak bata bhi dena."
"Aisa kyo kah rahe ho.?" Vidhi ne kaha_____"Kya tum us wakt yaha nahi rahoge.?"
"Kal mujhe kayi zaruri kaam karne hain." Dushyant ne lambi saans kheechte huye kaha_____"Is liye main yaha nahi rahuga us wakt. Waise bhi mera us wakt yaha rahna koi maayne nahi rakhta. Haan agar tumhe lagta hai ki mujhe rahna chahiye to ruk jaauga."
"Tum rahte to mujhe achha hi lagta." Vidhi ne jaise udaas bhaav se kaha______"Par kyo ki maujuda situation me tumhe zaruri kaam hai is liye main tumhe rokna uchit nahi samjhti."
"Tum wakeel sahab se mil lena." Dushyant ne kaha_____"Waise to tum khud hi samajhdaar ho ki tumhe kya karna hai. Baaki jaha meri zarurat ho to bol dena."
"Thik hai." Vidhi ne kuch sochte huye kaha______"Achha ek baat bataao kya tum apni family walo se milne nahi jate kabhi.? Itne dino me maine tumhe kabhi apni family walo se baat karte nahi dekha."
"Asal me baat ye hai ki meri family me meri pita ji se nahi banti hai." Dushyant ne gahri saans lete huye kaha_____"Meri family me mere pita ji kafi strict the. Ham dono bhai bahan unse bahut darte the, main to sabse zyada kyo ki main ek ladka tha aur wo chaahte the ki main thik se padhu likhu aur kisi galat sangat me na padu. Is vajah se wo har wakt meri class lete rahte the. School life tak to bahut paabandi thi aur main kabhi unki taraf aankh utha ke bhi nahi dekh saka tha. School ke baad college me gaya to thodi raahat mili kyo ki college gaon se door shahar me tha. College me aane se ek baat ye huyi ki mujhe saal me ek baar hi ghar bualaya jata tha. Halaaki maa is baat se khush nahi thi magar pita ji ke dar se wo kuch bol nahi sakti thi. College me aane ke baad mere kuch yaswant jaise dost bane aur maine bhi khud ko badalna shuru kar diya. Pita ji ki in shakht hidaayto ki vajah se main galat sangat me to nahi pada magar mere andar is sabki vajah se kathorta ghar karne lagi. Main hamesha sochta tha ki mujh par itni shakht paabandi kyo.? College me aaya to mahine me ek baar pita ji ka phone aata aur wo mera haal chaal puchte aur maa se bhi baat ho jati. Is sabse mujhe aisa lagta tha jaise koi mujhe pyar nahi karta warna is tarah mujhe akela na chhod diya gaya hota. Khair college se nikla to police force join karne ka socha. Police force is liye kyo ki khaaki wardi se lagaav tha aur desh samaaj ke liye kuch karne ki lalak thi. Halaaki pita ji is baat se khush nahi the. Wo to mujhe kuch aur hi banana chaahte the magar maine police force hi join kiya. Training ke baad jab main ghar gaya to maa mujhe dekh kar bahut khush huyi jabki pita ji ne naraazgi jataayi. Main ab bada ho chuka tha is liye pahle jaise pita ji ka khauf nahi tha mere andar. Us din maa ne bhi pita ji ko khoob sunaya. Pita ji is baat se bahut gussa huye aur mujhse bole ki jo man me aaye kar...ham kaun hote hain bhala.?"
"Meri chhoti bahan pratiksha mujhe police wale ke roop me dekh kar bahut khush huyi thi." Ek lambi saans lene ke baad dushyant ne fir se kahna shuru kiya______"Us din se pita ji ka bartaav mere prati badal gaya tha. Wo mujhse zyada baat nahi karte the. Jab bahut hi zaruri ho jata tha tabhi baat karte the thodi bahut. Police force join karne ke do saal baad ghar me meri shadi ki baat chalne lagi. Pita ji ne mujhse direct nahi kaha tha balki maa ke dwara kahalwaya tha. Unki nazar me koi ladki thi jisse wo meri shadi karana chaahte the magar maine shadi karne se saaf inkaar kar diya. Maine maa se saaf kah diya tha ki main usi ladki se shadi karuga jise dekh kar mera dil khud mujhse kahe ki yahi hai wo ladki jo sirf tere liye bani hai. Mere inkaar karne par pita ji bahut gussa huye. Halaaki maa aur pratiksha ne mera hi sath diya tha. Aise hi din mahine guzarte rahe. Pita ji jab bhi shadi karne ke liye zor dete main inkaar kar deta tha aur mere inkaar karne par wo gussa ho jate the. Iska asar ye hua ki unhone mujhse bilkul hi taalluk rakhna chhod diya. Maa aur pratiksha hamesha mujhse yahi kahti ki agar tujhe aisi hi kisi ladki se shadi karni hai to tu khud hi kyo nahi khoj leta. Unki is baat par main bas yahi kahta ki khojne se aisi ladki nahi milti hai maa, balki wo to kismat ke jaagne se aur bhagwan ki meharbaani se milti hai. Is liye jab ye dono cheeze hogi to mujhe meri pasand ki ladki khud hi mil jayegi. Meri chhoti bahan pratiksha apni saheliyo ki photo dikhati aur kahti ki agar inme se koi pasand ho to bata du. Uski saheliya waastav me bahut sundar thi magar unhe dekh kar mere dil se koi awaaz nahi aati thi. Is liye tab se ab tak aise hi guzar rahi thi zindagi. Itne arshe baad jab tumhari mom wala case hua to mera saamna tumse hua. Tumhe dekha to dekhta hi rah gaya tha main. Mera dil cheekh cheekh kar mujhe bata raha tha ki yahi hai wo. Ab tak to itna samajh chuka hu ki sirf ek insaan ke chaahne se kuch nahi hota. Yaani ki agar hame koi ladki pasand aa jaye to iska matlab ye nahi ho sakta ki wo ladki hame apne life partner ke roop me mil hi jayegi. Koi zaruri nahi ki ham jise pasand kar le wo bhi hame pasand kar le. Tum mili to dil ne mujhe bata diya ki tum hi ho wo ladki aur maine badi himmat kar ke tumse apne dil ki baat bhi kah di thi. Ye jaante huye bhi ki agar tumne inkaar kar diya to mera dil toot kar bikhar jayega. Par kam se kam dil ki tasalli ke liye dosti ka rishta to ban hi gaya apna. Mere liye to yahi bahut tha. Kam se kam isi bahane tumhare kareeb to rahuga aur tumse baate to hogi. Kya hua agar tumne meri chaahat ko kabul nahi kiya. Itna to mujhe bhi pata hai ki har kisi ki pasand alag alag hoti hai."
"Badi ajeeb kahani hai tumhari." Vidhi ne gahri saans lete huye magar larajte huye swar me kaha______"Tum par to koi bhi ladki fida ho sakti hai. Wo sab kuch hai tum me jo koi bhi ladki apne khayaalo me sochti hai. Kaash mere andar tumhare liye aisi feelings aa jati."
"Koi baat nahi." Dushyant ne is baar feeki si muskaan ke sath kaha______"Aur tumhe apne andar jabardasti aisi feelings laane ki zarurat bhi nahi hai. Shayad apne naseeb me yahi likha hai ki saari zindagi akela hi rahu."
"Aur tumhari maa aur bahan ka kya.?" Vidhi ne kaha_____"Kya unke armaano ka koi mol nahi hai tumhari nazar me.? Sirf apni chaahat aur khushi ke liye apni maa bahan ki khwaahisho ka gala kaise ghot doge tum.?"
"Kabhi kisi ko mukammal jaha nahi milta vidhi." Dushyant ne kaha______"Insaan ki ek khwaahish puri hoti hai to agle hi pal dusri khwaahish janm le leti hai. Zindagi me khushiya do pal ki mehmaan hoti hain aur dukh dard hamesha ke liye hamare hi ghar me apna ashiyana bana ke rahne lagte hain. Behtar ye hai ki kisi cheez ki khwaahish hi na karo. Maine apni maa aur bahan ko achhe tarike se samjha rakha hai is bare me."
Dushyant ki ye baat sun kar vidhi dekhti rah gayi uski taraf. Uske chehre par kayi tarah ke bhaav aate jate nazar aaye. Kuch der ke liye jaise fir se khamoshi chha gayi. Jaha dushyant sofe par baitha gipsy ki chaabhi ko kuredne laga tha wahi vidhi lagataar usi ki taraf dekhe ja rahi thi.
"Bade ajeeb aadmi ho tum." Vidhi ne gahri saans lete huye khamoshi ko toda______"Ab to tumhari bahan ki shadi ho chuki hogi na.?"
"Wo mujhse age me bahut chhoti hai." Dushyant ne halki muskaan ke sath kaha______"Asal me mere baad mere mata pita ko do santaane aur huyi thi magar wo zyada samay tak jeewit nahi rah sake. Uske baad pratiksha ka janm hua tha. Pratiksha mujhse saat saal chhoti hai. Abhi uski shadi nahi huyi hai. Pichhli baar jab maa se baat huyi thi to bata rahi thi ki pita ji uski shadi ke liye koi achha sa ladka khoj rahe hain."
"Abhi kab se ghar nahi gaye tum.?" Vidhi ne puchha.
"Shayad chaar mahine se upar ka wakt ho chuka hai." Dushyant ne kaha______"Par main phone par mahine pandrah din me baat kar leta hu unse."
"Kitne kathor ho tum." Vidhi ne uski taraf ghoor kar dekhte huye kaha_____"Aisa kaise kar sakte ho tum.? Kya tumhe apni family walo par zara bhi taras nahi aata.? Pita ji se to chalo maan liya ki tumhari nahi banti magar maa aur bahan se to banti hai.? Wo dono to tumhe pyar karti hain, fir itne mahine tak kaise tum unse door rah sakte ho.?"
"Yaar aaj kal mobile me video calling ki suvidha hai." Dushyant ne kaha______"Is liye video calling kar ke unhe dekh leta hu aur wo log bhi mujhe dekh leti hain. Kya ye kaafi nahi hai.?"
"Sahi kahti thi main." Vidhi ne ghoorte huye hi kaha_____"Ki dhele bhar ka bhi sense nahi hai tum me. Video calling se dekh lene bhar se kya hota hai.? Ghar jaa ke unse milo aur unke sath kuch din raho tab ja ke dil ko chain milega unhe. Mujhe to hairat hoti hai ki tum un masumo ke sath aisa kaise kar rahe ho.? Main tumhe kitna achha samajhti thi magar tum to patthar dil nikle aur khud ke liye chaahte ho ki koi tumhari chaahat ko kabool kar le....huh."
Kahne ke sath hi vidhi ne muh fer liya. Uska andaaz aisa tha jaise wo dushyant se rooth gayi ho. Dushyant ne jab uski taraf dekha to uske hotho par muskaan ubhar aayi.
"To kya isi vajah se." Dushyant ne kaha______"Meri chaahat abhi tak accept nahi huyi ki maine apni maa aur bahan ke sath aisa kar ke achha nahi kiya.?"
"Baat mat karo mujhse." Vidhi ne is baar halka gussa dikhate huye kaha______"Bade aaye apni chaahat ko accept karwane wale. Meri baat kaan khol kar sun lo ab aur wo ye ki is case ke finish hone ke baad tum seedha apne ghar jaaoge."
"Jo hukum aapka." Dushyant ne adab se sir ko nawaate huye kaha______"Aur koi aadesh mere liye.?"
"Haan hai." Vidhi ne tunak mizaaj dikhate huye kaha_____"Aur wo ye hai ki tum abhi ghar me maa ko phone karo aur unse kaho ki pratiksha ko kal hi yaha bhej de."
"Aree ye kya kah rahi ho tum.?" Dushyant buri tarah chaunka tha, bola_______"Bhala use yaha kyo bhejne ko kah rahi ho tum.?"
"Main kuch nahi janti." Vidhi ne sofe se uthte huye kaha_____"Jo kaha hai wo karo warna soch lena fir."
"Are yaar ye kya baat huyi bhala.?" Dushyant ekdam se pareshan nazar aane laga, bola______"Pratiksha ko yaha bulane par itna zor kyo de rahi ho tum.? Waise bhi pita ji use yaha nahi bhejege."
"Main kuch nahi jaanti." Vidhi ne kaha_____"Tum abhi phone lagaao aur haan agar tum baat nahi karna chahte to main khud maa se baat karugi aur unse kahugi ki kal hi pratiksha ko yaha bhej de."
Dushyant marta kya na karta wali situation me fas gaya tha. Majburan use vidhi ke kahne par ghar me phone karna pada. Pahle to usne khud hi baat ki aur ghar me sabka haal chaal puchha. Fir jab vidhi ne dekha ki wo asal baat karne se aana kaani kar raha hai to usne dushyant se mobile chheen liya aur khud dushyant ki maa se baat karne lagi. Idhar vidhi ke aisa karme par dushyant ki haalat dekhne laayak ho gayi thi. Use is baat ka dar sata raha tha ki uski maa jab vidhi se baat karegi to wo uske bare me kya sochegi. Udhar vidhi ne phone par badi shaalinta se sabse pahle dushyant ki maa ko maa kah kar hi namaste kiya aur fir pure aatmvishwaas ke sath shuru ho gayi.
Saamne sofe par baitha dushyant apni saanse roke uski baate sunta bhi ja raha tha aur hairaan bhi hota ja raha tha. Uski baato ko sunte sunte hi wo kisi aur hi duniya me pahuch gaya tha. Use hosh tab aaya jab vidhi ne uski taraf uska mobile badha kar thodi tej awaaz me use pukara. Dushyant uske pukarne par hadbada gaya.
"Maine maa ji se baat kar li hai." Vidhi ne muskurate huye kaha_____"Aur unse kah bhi diya hai ki wo kal pratiksha ko yaha bhej de. Mere kahne par unhone khushi se kaha ki thik hai wo kal hi pratiksha ko yaha bhej degi. Is liye ab tum kal use lene station chale jana."
"Kya maa ne tumse puchha nahi." Dushyant ne ashcharya se aankhe faadte huye kaha______"Ki tum kaun ho aur mere phone par tum kaise baat kar rahi ho...aur ye bhi ki main tumhare paas kaise hu.?"
"Haan puchha tha unhone." Vidhi ne is tarah kaha jaise ye uske liye koi badi baat nahi thi, boli_____"Maine unhe bataya ki tum mere dost ho. Bas uske baad unhone zyada kuch nahi pucha aur jab maine unse pratiksha ko yaha bhej dene ke liye kaha to unhone fauran hi pratiksha ko bhejne ke liye haan kah diya. Jabki tum to kah rahe the ki wo nahi bhejengi.?"
"Pahle ye bataao ki tumhare charan kaha hain.?" Dushyant ne chakit bhaav se puchha.
"Charan.????" Vidhi uski is baat par chaunki.
"Haan charan." Dushyant ne kaha______"Main tumhare charno me natmastak hona chaahta hu devi ji."
"Ab ye kya bol rahe ho tum.?" Vidhi ne apne dono hath kamar par rakhte huye use ghoor kar kaha.
"Chhodo jane do." Dushyant ne gahri saans li______"Mujhe lagta hai ki ab mujhe chup chaap apne kamre me ja kar so jana chahiye. Waise lagta nahi hai ki aaj raat mujhe neend aayegi."
Dushyant kahne ke sath hi sofe se utha aur bhaari kadmo ke sath vidhi ki koi baat sune bina hi seedhiyo ki taraf badh gaya. Uske is tarah jane se vidhi ke hotho par muskaan ubhar aayi aur fir wo bhi uske pichhe pichhe chal padi.
"Ab ye kya bol rahe ho tum.?" Vidhi ne apne dono hath kamar par rakhte huye use ghoor kar kaha.
"Chhodo jane do." Dushyant ne gahri saans li______"Mujhe lagta hai ki ab mujhe chup chaap apne kamre me ja kar so jana chahiye. Waise lagta nahi hai ki aaj raat mujhe neend aayegi."
Dushyant kahne ke sath hi sofe se utha aur bhaari kadmo ke sath vidhi ki koi baat sune bina hi seedhiyo ki taraf badh gaya. Uske is tarah jane se vidhi ke hotho par muskaan ubhar aayi aur fir wo bhi uske pichhe pichhe chal padi.
Ab Aage,,,,,,
"Ye kaun si jagah hai jai.?" Saundarya ne apne charo taraf nazre daudaate huye puchha______"Kab se puch rahi hu tumse aur tum ho ki aise chup ho jaise kisi ne tumhe chup rahne ka shraap de diya ho."
"Ye aisi jagah hai dear." Jai ne palat kar uski taraf dekhte huye kaha_____"Jaha par uske aadmi hamare hone ke bare me soch bhi nahi sakte. Thik waise hi jaise waha ke bare me nahi soch sakte hain jaha abhi ham rah rahe hain."
"Tumhara bhai vijay itna shaatir hoga main to soch bhi nahi sakti thi jai." Saundarya ki aankho ke saamne purani yaado ki kuch tasvire maano badi tezi se flash hoti chali gayi thi. Fir sochne wale andaz se boli______"Lekin tumne abhi tak ye bhi to nahi bataya ki ham yaha aaye kyo hain...aur yaha aas paas koi door door dikhaayi kyo nahi de raha.?"
"Abhi ham apni manzil par pahuche kaha hain dear." Jai ne shaant bhaav se magar saamne ki taraf dekhte huye kaha_____"Bas kuch der intzaar karo. Uske baad sab samajh jaaogi."
"Wo to thik hai magar dekho to yaha kitna sunsaan lag raha hai." Saundarya ne idhar udhar nazar ghumate huye kaha_____"Aisa lagta hai jaise yaha koi insaan to kya balki koi parinda bhi rahna pasand nahi karta hoga aur tum kah rahe ho ki yaha kahi hamari manzil hai. Tum kuch batate kyo nahi mujhe.? Mujhe to yaha ka watawaran dekh kar bahut ajeeb sa lag raha hai."
"Isi liye to kah raha hu dear." Jai ne kaha______"Ki yaha ke bare me wo aur uske aadmi soch bhi nahi sakte hain. Tumhe to pata hai ki wo kitna shaatir hai. Jab se uski yaad daast gayi hai tab se use apni pichhli zindagi ke bare me kuch pata nahi hai. Hamne use aisi jagah chhoda tha jaha ke bare me uske aadmi na soch sakte the aur na hi kabhi pahuch sakte hain. Haan ye zarur hai ki pichhle do saalo se use kutte ki tarah khoj zarur rahe hoge."
"Ye tum kaise kah sakte ho.?" Saundarya ne jai ki taraf hairaani se dekhte huye kaha tha______"Ki tumhare bhai vijay ke aadmi use kutte ki tarah khoj rahe hoge.?"
"Jo kuch hamne uske sath kiya hai." Jai ne kaha______"Uske baad to yahi hona tha na meri jaan. Wo to achha hua ki wo us time mar nahi gaya tha warna sare kiye karaye par paani fir jata. Kambakht ne unhe pahle hi chhupa diya tha aur hame baad me pata chala. Ab socho agar wo us din mar jata to kya hota.? Aree hame pata hi na chalta ki usne unhe kaha chhupa diya hai.? Ye to hamari achhi kismat hi thi ki mere aadmiyo ke itna maarne ke baad aur use utni uchaayi se fenkne ke baad bhi wo mara nahi tha, sirf uski yaad daast chali gayi thi. Uske baad use uske aadmiyo ki soch aur pahuch se door karna zaruri ho gaya tha warna aaj kahani kuch aur hi hoti."
"Haan ye to main samajhti hu." Saundarya ne apna sir hilate huye kaha______"Magar mujhe abhi tak ye samajh me nahi aaya ki yaha hamari kaun si manzil hai aur ham yaha kis kaam se aaye hain.?"
"Tumhe to pata hai ki main apne kareeb apne aadmiyo ko nahi rahne deta." Jai ne kaha______"Iski vajah ye hai ki main nahi chaahta ki ek chhoti si galti ki vajah se mera koi aadmi police ki pakad me aa jaye. Kyo ki agar aisa hua to police ko mujh tak pahuchne me zara bhi der nahi lagegi. Mere aadmi sirf unki khoj me hain jinhe vijay ne kahi chhupa diya tha. Us din accident me jo aadmi mere sath the wo sab kiraye ke aadmi the. Unko mere bare me kuch nahi pata tha kyo ki us din ham sabne apne chehre ko kaale kapde se dhak rakha tha. Is liye agar unme se koi police ki pakad me aa bhi jata to wo mere bare me police ko kuch nahi bata paate. Lekin agar unki jagah mere aadmi hote aur wo police ki pakad me aa jate to unke dwara police ko mere bare me zarur pata chal jata. Isi liye main har kaam bahut soch samajh kar karta hu. Mere jo original aadmi hain wo sirf unki khoj me lage huye hain jinhe us kambakht vijay ne chhupa rakha hai. Ab raha tumhare is sawaal ka jawaab ki ham yaha kyo aaye hain to uska jawaab ye hai ki yahi par main apne original aadmiyo se hamesha milta hu aur unse saari report leta hu."
"Oh to ye baat hai." Saundarya ne samajhte huye kaha_____"Par mujhe apne sath kyo laye ho yaha.? Iske pahle to kabhi nahi laye the mujhe.?"
"Pahle me aur ab me kafi fark ho chuka hai saundarya." Jai ne is baar gahri saans lete huye kaha______" Pahle mujhe yakeen tha ki vijay ki yaad daast nahi lauti hai is liye uski vajah se tum par koi khatre jaisi baat nahi thi, jabki aaj ki situation me mujhe shak hai ki uski yaad daast laut aayi hogi. Kyo ki us din ke accident se uske sir me chot lagi thi aur aisa aksar hota hai ki aise cases me agar sir ke khaas hisse par fir se chot lag jaye to insaan ki memory waapas aa jati hai. Ab tum khud socho ki agar uski memory laut aayi hogi to use fir apna pichhla sab kuch yaad aa jayega aur usse tumhe khatra bhi ho jayega. Yahi soch kar is baar main tumhe apne sath hi yaha le aaya hu. Main kisi tarah ka koi bhi rishk nahi lena chaahta dear. Tum meri biwi ho aur meri jaan ho, bhala main tumhe kisi khatre me kaise daal sakta hu.?"
"Ohh jai." Saundarya jai ki baate sun kar khushi ke mare usse lipatte huye boli______"Tum sach me mera kitna khayaal rakhte ho. Main kitni khush kismat hu ki mujhe tum jaisa pyar karne wala pati mila hai. Bas ek baar ye sab finish ho jaye uske baad ham dono sukoon se aur azaadi se ek dusre ke sath ji sakege."
"Fikar mat karo meri jaan." Jai ne ekdam se apne jabde kaste huye kaha_____"Ye sab bahut jald finish ho jayega aur use bhi uske kiye ki makool saza milegi. Bas ek baar wo log mere haath lag jaye. Uske baad to sara kissa hi khatam kar duga main."
"Kitni ajeeb baat hai na jai." Saundarya ne jaise kahi khoye huye bhaav se kaha_____"Ek waqt tha jab tum kitne seedhe saadhe aur shaant swabhaav ke hua karte the aur aaj paristhitiyo ne kitna badal diya hai tumhe."
"Is duniya me seedha saada rahne wala aur shaant swabhaav wala insaan kabhi sukoon se nahi ji sakta saundarya." Jai ne gambheerta se kaha______"Ya ye kahu ki aise insaan ko is duniya ke log chain aur sukoon se jine hi nahi dete. Der se hi sahi magar mujhe ye baat samajh aa hi gayi. Ek tarah se ye achha hi hua dear ki main in paristhitiyo me badal gaya warna agar seedha saada hi bana rahta to na tumhari us hawas ke pujari se ijjat bacha pata aur na hi aaj tum ye kah paati ki tum kitni khush kismat ho ki tumhe itna pyar karne wala pati mila hai. Achha insaan banna koi galat baat nahi hai magar mujdil aur kaayar banna nihaayat hi galat baat hai. Mujhe khushi hai ki maine wakt rahte khud ko badal liya jiske chalte aaj tum mujh par garv kar rahi ho warna agar meri bujdili aur kaayarta ki vajah se tumhari ijjat lut jati to main is sansaar me kahi muh chhupane ki jagah bhi na talaash kar pata."
"Jo hota hai sab achhe ke liye hi hota hai jai." Saundarya ne prem bhare lahje me kaha_____"Mujhe is baat ki tumse zara si bhi shikayat nahi hai ki tumne apni fitrat ko badal kar kuch gair kanuni karm bhi kiye hain, balki khushi hai ki tumne galat nahi hone diya."
"Dekho ham apni manzil par pahuch gaye." Jai ne saamne kuch hi doori par aise toote huye khandahar ki taraf dekhte huye kaha jo shayad kisi zamane me kisi raja ki shikaargaah hua karta raha hoga.
Kuch hi der me wo dono us toote huye khandahar ke paas pahuch gaye. Yaha teen taraf se jangal tha. Jis se taraf ye dono aaye the us taraf door door tak pathrili zameen thi. Halaaki pedh paudhe bhi the magar is taraf teen taraf se jangal tha. Pathrili zameen me do pagdandiya thi jo ki ek muddat se aawa gawan ka natija thi. Ye jagah shahar se kaafi door thi. Khandahar ke pichhe taraf ghana jangal tha jabki agal bagal utna ghana nahi tha.
Jai ki maruti suzuki 800 car khandahar ke saamne se aate huye uske bagal se nikal kar pichhe jangal me kareeb das ya bees kadam andar ja kar ruki. Car se kuch hi doori par teen moter sycle khadi nazar aayi use. Car ke rukte hi jai aur saundarya apni apni taraf se darwaze khol kar niche utre aur fir khandahar ke pichhe jangal me hi ek taraf ko paidal chal diye.
Jai ke chehre par to koi bhaav nahi the magar saundarya ke chehre par aise bhaav the jaise wo kuch dari huyi ho. Aas paas jangal se saay saay ki awaaze aa rahi thi. Saundarya baar baar pichhe dekhne lagti thi jaise use dar ho ki koi pichhe se aa kar us par hamla kar dega. Wo jai se bilkul sat kar chal rahi thi. Thodi hi der me wo jangal ke thoda andar ek aisi jagah pahuche jaha par ghaans foos ki chhoti si jhopdi bani thi. Jangal bahut zyada ghana to nahi tha magar door se dekhne par jhopdi nazar nahi aati thi aur na hi koi ye expect kar sakta tha ki yaha jangal me koi aisi jagah bhi kisi ne apne niji kaarya ke liye bana rakha hoga.
Jhopdi ke baahar ek aadmi khada tha. Aadmi jai ki umar se zyada ka tha. Rangal saanwli thi aur chehre par halki daadhi moochh thi. Jai par nazar padte hi uske chehre ke bhaav badle aur bade adab se sir nawaya usne. Jai ne aankho se koi ishara kiya to usne apne sir ko halka sa kham kiya. Jai saundarya ke sath jhopdi ke andar daakhil ho gaya. Jhopdi ke andar do aadmi pahle se maujud the jo bade bade pattharo par baithe huye the. Wo aadmi bhi pahle wale aadmi ke jaisi hi shakl o surat wale the. Jai par nazar padte hi dono uth kar khade ho gaye aur adab se sir nawa kar jai ka abhiwadan kiya.
"Baitho." Ek patthar ki taraf ishara karte huye jai ne saundarya se kaha aur khud bhi ek dusre patthar par baith gaya. Jabki wo dono aadmi khade hi rahe. Pahle wala aadmi jhopdi ke baahar hi tha. Shayad baahar wo aas paas ki nigraani ke liye maujood tha.
"Kaisa chal raha hai sab kaam.?" Jai ne un dono aadmiyo ki taraf dekhte huye puchha______"Aur kya kuch pata chal saka ki vijay ne unhe kaha chhupa ke rakha hai.?"
"Hamne har us jagah talaash kar liya jaha par aapko lagta tha ki vijay ne unhe chhupa rakha hoga." Ek aadmi ne bhaari awaaz me kaha_____"Magar ashcharya ki baat hai ki in dedh saalo me ham unhe talaash nahi kar paye. Samajh me nahi aata ki vijay ne unhe aisi kaun si jagah par nazarband kar diya hai."
"Iske alawa." Dusre aadmi ne kaha_____"Baaki sab kaam waisa hi puri safaayi se chal raha hai jaise ab tak chalta aaya hai. Kahne ka matlab ye ki aaj tak aas paas ke gaavo par bhi na koi akhbaar pahuch saka aur na hi hamare dar se kisi ne police tak ye suchna pahuchane ki himakat ki ke jis aadmi ke bare me jaanne ke liye police ne akhbaar aur news channels par uski photo daali thi use wo jaante hain. Hamare aadmi chaubiso ghante is baat ki nigraani karte rahte hain...magar."
"Magar..??" Jai ke maathe par bal pada.
"Magar yahi ki is sab ko ab aur rokna zara mushkil lagne laga hai." Pahle wale aadmi ne kaha_____"Ab tak to kisi tarah hamne sab kuch samhala hi tha magar kuch din pahle gaav ke teen log ain wakt par pakad liye hamare aadmiyo ne warna wo police tak ye suchna pahucha dete ki avinash naam ke jis shakhs ke bare me wo jaanna chaahte hain use wo log jante hain. Aap to jante hain ki agar aisa ho jata to sab kuch ek jhatke me khatam ho jata."
"Unhe roke rakho ranga." Jai ne kaha______"Fir chaahe uske liye kuch bhi karna pade. Mujhe pata hai ki dedh saalo se is sab ko roke rakhna bahut badi baat hai. Agar hamne itna bada network nahi banaya hota to iske pahle hi sab kuch khatam ho jata. Vijay ke kuch aadmi in dedh saalo me hamare haath lage jinhe badi safaayi se hamne khatam bhi kiya aur unhe gayab bhi kiya magar ek sawaal aaj bhi mujhe hajam nahi ho raha ki vijay ka har aadmi to hamari pakad me aaya nahi hoga. Yaani koi na koi to hamari pakad se baahar hi raha hoga to usne vijay tak pahuchne ki koshish kyo nahi ki.? Jabki hona to ye chahiye tha ki vijay chaahe jaha bhi hota uske paas unhe sabse pahle pahuchna chahiye tha magar aisa nahi hua balki uske kisi aadmi ke pahuchne se pahle hi ham uske paas pahuch gaye the. Sochne wali baat hai ki vijay jaise shaatir insaan ke paas itna bada network tha jisme na jane kitne saare aadmi uske sath the magar jab wo khud aise haal me pahucha to uska koi bhi aadmi uski khabar lene uske paas tak nahi pahuch saka....sawaal hai ki aakhir aisa kaise ho sakta hai.?"
"Jaisa vijay ka character tha usse ho sakta hai ki wo log usse pichha chhudana chaahte rahe ho." Dusre aadmi ne sochne wale bhaav se kaha_____"Vijay ke sath ye sab hone se aur uski yaad daast ke chale jane se mumkin hai ki unhe apne liye ye ek sunahra awsar laga ho is liye awsar ka faayda uthate huye unhone apna khud ka ek alag giroh bana liya hoga. Unhe pata chal hi gaya raha hoga ki aap dono ke bich kya chal raha tha is liye unhone is sab par nazar rakhi hogi aur jab unhone dekha hoga ki aapka bhai vijay aisi haalat me pahuch chuka hai ki ab wo kisi kaam ka nahi raha to unhone fauran hi usse kinara kar ke apna ek alag giroh bana liya ya ye kahe unme se hi kisi ne gang par apna adhikaar jatate huye use apne haath me le liya hoga."
"Ranga thik kah raha hai jai bhai." Dusre aadmi ne purzor lahje me kaha_____"Aisa hi hua hoga warna bahut pahle hi vijay ka koi aadmi ya to vijay ko badi safaayi se hamari nazar se door kar deta ya fir situation ko apne se bhaari hote dekh police ko is sabke bare me suchit kar deta."
"Yakeenan aisa hi hua lagta hai." Jai ne kaha______"Yaani vijay ke aadmiyo ne gang par kabja kar liya aur vijay ko uske haal me chhod diya. Gang ke sare member bhi yahi chaahte rahe hoge isi liye kisi ne koi virodh nahi kiya. Ab jab sara gang ki ek jut ho gaya to ek akela vijay unka kya bigaad lega. Khair ye to hamare liye achhi baat hi huyi magar jinko haasil karna hamare liye sabse zyada zaruri tha wo to aaj tak hamare haath nahi lag sake."
"Ham to shuruaat se ab tak isi dar aur ashanka me rahe jai bhai ki kahi kisi din vijay ka koi aadmi use khoj na le aur ye bhi ki wo sab kuch police ko bata na de." Pahle aadmi ne kaha_____"Par aaj tak aisa kuch bhi nahi hua. Iska to ek hi matlab hua ki vijay ke gang walo ne vijay ke gayab hote hi gang ko apne hath me le liya hai aur vijay ko uske haal par chhod chuke hain. Ya fir ye soch kar use bhula baithe honge ki ek to wo ab kisi kaam ka nahi raha dusre agar uski kabhi yaad daast waapas aayi bhi to akela wo unka kya bigaad lega.? Ye sab hamare liye achha hi hua magar haan is baat ne zarur hame bahut zyada niraash aur hataash kiya hua hai ki usne un logo ko aisi kaun si jagah chhupa diya hai ki ham aaj tak unhe khoj nahi paye."
"Koi baat nahi ranga." Jai ne kaha______"Ham khud unhe nahi khoj paye to kya hua. Ab wo khud hi hame un tak pahuchayega."
"Ye aap kya kah rahe hain jai bhai.?" Ranga ke sath sath dusra aadmi bhi chaunka tha, jabki ranga ne kaha______"Bhala wo khud hame un tak kaise pahuchayega.? Use to apni pichhli zindagi ke bare me kuch yaad hi nahi hai."
"Aisa ham tab tak kah sakte the ranga." Jai ne kaha______"Jab tak ki wo accident nahi kiya tha maine magar ab mujhe lagta hai ki us accident se us par zarur asar hua hoga. Yaani bahut had tak sambhav hai ki uski yaad daast aa chuki hogi. Abhi kyo ki wo chalne firne ki haalat me nahi hai is liye chup chaap hi baitha rahega magar mujhe yakeen hai ki jaise hi wo chalne firne laayak hoga to wo apne asli roop me aa jayega aur fir wo sabse pahle unke hi paas jayega. Kyo ki dedh saalo se wo unse door raha hai to uske man me unke bare me jaanne ki badi tez jigyasa paida hogi. Use is baat ka dar bhi hone lagega ki kahi uski gair maujudgi me ham un tak pahuch na gaye ho aur unke sath kuch bura na kar diya ho."
"Ohh to is liye aap kah rahe hain ki ab wo khud hi hame un tak pahuchayega.?" Ranga ne kaha______"Baat to thik hai aapki lekin agar uski yaad daast waapas na aayi hui hogi to.? Tab to hamare saamne koi raasta hi nahi hoga."
"Police thane me ek police wala apna khabri hai ranga." Jai ne kaha______"Usi se mujhe waha ki saari jankari milti rahti hai. Usi ne bataya tha ki us din accident me uske sir me chot lagi thi aur uska ek haath bhi toot gaya tha. Isi adhaar par main kah raha hu ki us accident se uske sir par jo chot lagi thi usse mumkin hai ki uski yaad daast waapas aa gayi hogi. Ab kyo ki uska haath bhi toot gaya tha is liye abhi wo kahi aa ja nahi sakta magar jab uska haath thik ho jayega tab usme koi na koi badlaav dekhne ko zarur milega. Yaani thik hone ke baad agar wo aisi harkate karta hai jo ab se pahle nahi karta tha to pata chal jayega ki uski yaad daast aa chuki hai. Bas uske baad uska sabse pahla kaam yahi hoga ki wo unke paas jaye aur dekhe ki uske na rahne par un par kisi tarah ki koi baat to nahi aayi hai. Hame usi din ka intzaar karna hai ranga. Abhi to khair wo aisi jagah par hai jaha us police wale ne achhi khaasi security laga rakhi hai. Yaad daast waapas aane ke baad wo waha par chup nahi baithega. Yaani wo waha se bhaag niklega aur seedha unke paas hi jayega. Hamara kaam sirf itna hi hai ki ham us bangle par puri tarah nazar rakhe rahe. Jaise hi wo waha se niklega waise hi ham uske pichhe lag jayege."
"Ye bilkul thik kaha aapne." Ranga ne kaha______"Main shankar ke sath ek aur aadmi ko waha par nazar rakhne ke liye laga deta hu. Ek din me nazar rakhega aur dusra raat me."
"Haan ye thik rahega." Jai ne kaha______"Aur un dono ko samjha bhi dena ki khud kisi tarah ki koi harkat nahi karenge. Unka kaam sirf aur sirf nazar rakhna hai aur phone ke dwara hame waha ki khabar dete rahna hai. Dusri zaruri baat ye bhi ki nazar rakhne ke liye aisi jagah ko chune jaha se wo bangle par achhi tarah se nazar rakh sake aur khud ko police ki nazar se puri tarah bacha ke rakhe."
"Thik hai jai bhai." Ranga ne kaha______"Main un dono ko achhi tarah samjha duga."
"Ab tum log jaao." Jai ne patthar se uthte huye kaha______"Aur baaki ke kaam ko waise hi karte raro jaise ab tak karte aaye ho."
Jai ne khamosh baithi saundarya ko chalne ka ishara kiya to wo chup chaap uth kar uske piche piche chal di. Jhopdi se baahar aa kar jai ne un sabhi logo ko kuch aur bhi zaruri hidaayte di aur fir wo saundarya ko liye us taraf badhta chala gaya jaha par uski car khadi thi. Thodi hi der me wo dono car ke paas aa gaye. Uske baad dono hi car me baith kar waapasi ke liye chal diye.
"Mere liye kitna kuch sahna pad raha hai na tumhe.?" Raaste me saundarya ne jai ki taraf dekhte huye badi masumiyat se kaha tha.
"Baat agar sirf tumhari hi bas hoti." Jai ne sapaat bhaav se kaha______"To main use kab ka jaan se maar deta. Halaaki maine to maar hi diya tha use magar main use maarne ke sath sath kuch aur bhi chaahta tha jo ki na ho saka. Kambakht ko jaise pahle hi shak ho gaya tha is liye unhe chhupa diya. Agar mujhe pata hota ki mere peechhe usne waisa kar diya tha to us din main use jaan se maarne ke liye apne aadmiyo se kahta hi nahi, balki sirf use pakad kar le aane ke liye kahta. Uske baad main khud usse puchhta ki usne unhe kaha chhupa diya hai. Use batana hi padta saundarya. Aakhir apni zindagi sabko pyaari hoti hai."
"Main to dar ke mare mari ja rahi thi jai." Saundarya ne kuch sochte huye kaha______"Ki us jaise khatarnaak aadmi se tum us samay kaise ekdam se bhid gaye the. Agar usne tumhare sath kuch ulta sidha kar diya hota to mera kya hota.? Mujhe to wo waise hi hawas bhari nazro se dekhta tha. Ulta ye kahta rahta tha ki wo mujhse bahut pyar karta hai."
"Wo bhale hi khatarnaak tha saundarya." Jai ne joshile andaaz me kaha______"Magar main uska bada bhai tha. Mana ki main uske jaise shaatir nahi tha magar usse dar kar main tumhe to uski hawas ka shikaar nahi hone deta na. Mere liye wo sab mushkil zarur tha magar namumkin nahi. Khair mujhe kisi cheez ki parwaah nahi hai, balki main khush hu ki maine sahi wakt par apne zameer ki baat suni aur usse tumhari ijjat ki raksha ki."
"Mujhe tum par naaz hai jai." Saundarya ne use balihaari ho jane wali nazro se dekhte huye kaha______"Agar us hawas ke pujari se tum meri raksha na kar pate to fir mere liye jine ka koi matlab nahi rahta. Us gande insaan ke dwara apni ijjat loot liye jane se main ek pal bhi jine ke bare me nahi sochti."
"Jo sachcha hota hai uska bhagwan bhi sath dete hain saundarya." Jai ne kaha______"Ye us upar wale ka hi karam tha ki sahi wakt par sab kuch achha hi hua tha. Ab to bas ek hi cheez ki khwaahish hai ki us haramzade ko apne haatho se uske kiye ki saza du aur jinhe usne chhupa ke rakha hai wo mere haath lag jaye."
"Aisa zarur hoga mere babu." Saundarya ne kaha______"Aur aaj ke halaat ko dekh kar yahi lagta hai ki aisa bahut jald hoga. Uske baad kisi cheez ka na dar rahega aur na hi hame kahi chhipne ki zarurat hogi. Balki ham dono ek sath apne us ghar me rahne lagege jis ghar ko hamne apne prem se saja kar taiyaar kiya tha."
Car apni speed se chali ja rahi thi aur ye dono apni prem bhari baate karte ja rahe the. Kareeb ek ghante baad ye dono apne us ghar me pahuche jaha ye dono aaj kal rahte the. Safar ki thakaan thi is liye dono ne pahle thoda araam kiya uske baad dono ek sath bathroom me ghus gaye. Bathroom me pahuchte hi dono ne fatafat apne apne kapde utaare aur puri tarah nange ho gaye. Dono ne pahle ek dusre ke nange jism ko dekha aur fir dono ki nazre aapas me takraayi. Aankhe mili to fir dono ke hotho ko aapas me mil jane me zara bhi der na huyi. Jai ne paas hi diwaar par lagi nalki ko ghuma diya jisse upar se dono ke nange jismo par thande thande paani ki fuhaar padne lagi. Paani ki thandi fuhaare dono ke garam ho rahe jismo ko thanda karne ke liye nakaam thi. Thodi hi der me kaam kreeda me doobi dono hi aahe aur siskaariya bathroom ke andar goojne lagi thi.
