[Romeo 22]

Na Hansna meri Muhabbat pe !​

“ Manu??!!” darwaaze par do baar dastak huyi aur fir mummi ki aawaz sunayi di .. aankhen band karte huye bistar se uth gaya ..

“haan mummy..aataa hun das minute me” Manu ne kaha. Saai raat aankho me beeti thi ! kitna mushkil hota hai ye dikhana ki aap thik hain !

“beta, sab thik hai na??” Mummi ki aawaz me fikr thi..

“haan mamma..aap chalo mai aaya..” Maine kaha!

Mummy kuchh der khadi rahi fir wapas chal di. Manu, usaki mummy aur dadi..bas teen lag rahte the is 4 kamre ke ghar me. Rajsthan ke Jaipur city se koi 25 kilomtre paschim me tha unka gaaon..ab to gaon nahi town-area ho gaya tha. Kuchh din tak pahale is ghar me ek chautha sadasy bhi tha..poonam ! Manu ki badi bahan, lekin 3 mahine pahale hi usaki shadi ho gayi thi aur wo apne pati ke saath banglore chali gayi thi !

Mummy aakar daadi ke paas baith gayi jo ek thaali me matar chheel rahi thi !

“kuchh batata bhi nahi , kaisa bujhaa bujhaa sa rahane laga hai…kya karun mai is ladake ka..” Mummy dadi ke paas khaat pe baithate huye boli !

“shaadi kar de isaki..kab se to kah rahi hun..”daadi ke paas har problem ka readymade solution hota tha. Jab se poonam gayi hai tabase hi udaas rah rahaa hai na..biwi aa jayegi to bas dekhna fir” daadi ne bade chaav se muskuraate huye kaha ! lekin mummy ke chehare pe abhi bhi paresaan jhalak rahi thi !

“ poonam ke jaane ka asar to us pe pada hi hai, dono me jaan basati thi ek dusare ki ..ab shadi bhi kaise kar dun..ek baar bhi haan nahi kahata..”Mummy ne kaha !

“are thode na wo kahega meri shaadi kar do ….ladake to kahte hi hain nahi karana..” daadi ko na samjhana aasana tha na harana.

Mummy chup ho gayi aur matar chheelane lagi !

15 min beete honge aur Manu aakar unake paas baith gaya..wo poora taiyar hokar aaya tha ..office jaane ke liye.

“kaha jaa raha hai..” Daadi ne ghurate huye kaha !

“office daadi..”Manu ne kaha !

“hainnnnnn? Aaj itwaar hai ..” daadi ne aankh tedh karte huye kaha

“Manu ! beta baith ..naashta to kar le..”

“haan maa, le aao” manu paas chair pe baith gaya ! Mummy ne pyar se apne bête ko dekha aur andar chali gayi !

“oye ladake.. ab bata..ye itwaar ko kabse aafis chalane laga..ab kya muye itwaar ko bhi chhutti nahi denge..”dadi ne puchha !

“haan dadi thoda kaam jyada hai..”

“ dusari naukari kar le fir..jisme 6 ghante kaam karan ho bas..ham ab teri shadi karane wale hain..” dadi ke nazar se to duniya me sabkuch kitna aasan tha !

“jee..jaldi hi chhod dunga ye naukri..”Manu kabhi bhi dadi se bahas nahi karta tha..aise me daadi ko Poona ki badi yaad aati thi, jo kabhi daadi ke saamne hathiyar nahi daalti thi jabtak daai kuchh khichkar usako maar na den !

Dadi chup ho gayi..ab to dadi ko bhi fikar hone lagi thi..unake hisab se jab koi insane unse itni aasani se haar maan le to jarur usaki tabiyat kuchh kharab hai !
Manu chupchaap nashta karane lagi Mummy use dekhati rahi ..

“jaane kya ho gaya hai mere bachchhe ko” Manu nashta karake jaa chukka tha aur mummy abhi bhi usi ke bare me soch rahi thi !

“manjari, kuch thik nahi hai yaar..aaj maa se baat ho rahi thi..Manu shayad un sab baton ko bhool nahi paa raha hai..” Poonam phone par apani best friend manjari se baat kar rahi thi !

“to tum kyu nahi baat karati Manu se..” manjari ne kaha !

“are mujhse bhi kaha baat karta hai wo..kabhi kuchh batata hi nahi..us bare me to baat hi nahi karata..” poonam bhi fikrmand thi !

“hmm..” manjari ne kaha

“sun ek help karegi meri..” poona ne kaha !

“kkyaa..”

“tu Manu se milegi..usake saath thoda time spend karegi kya ?? ..shayad use ek dost ki jarurat hai..” poonam ne kaha !

“kya kah rahi hai tu..” Manjari ne chaunkate huye kaha !

“ek din mil le us se..fir jaisa sahi lage karana..please..” poonam ne kaha !

“sorry yaar..mujhse ye sab nahi hoga..tu bhi samjah rahi hai tu kya bol rahi hai..” Manjari ne kaha !

“hmm..sorry..chal thik h ..baad me baat karate hain..”

Poonam apne bhai ke liye bahut paresan ho rahi thi ! aur idhar Manjari soch me pad gayi thi !

Maanas urf Manu ! usaka pahala pyaar !

Manjari ke dimaag me saari purani baaten chalen lagi thi..apani sabse achhii dost ke chhote bhai se pyaar kar baithi thi lekin kabhi himmat nahi kar paayi kahane ki ! Maanas thaa to Poonam se chhota lekin jimmedari saari usane bade bhai ki tarah nibhayi thi ! 12th ke baad se hi Manas Job karane laga tha…correspondence se B.A aur fir M.B.A..aaj Maanas ek kaafi bade hotel me asst. manager tha..salary thik thaak thi aur Poonam ki shaadi ki saari jimmedari bhi Maanas ne hi poori ki thi ! Manjari aksar Poonam ke saath hi college se aati thi aur kayi baar wo dono hi Manas ki bike par aati thin , kitne khubsoorat hote the wo pal !

Maanas ki sanjidagi ki deewani thi Manjari..poonam school time se usaki dost thi , ghar ke saare haalat us se bata deti thi..ghar ki arthik pareshaniyan, Papa ke liye nafarat aur dadi ke taane….usake papa ne dusari shadi kit hi aur dadi ki nazar me usaki jimmedar bhi maa tha. Kuchh bhi achchha nahi tha unaki ife me, lekin Uska bhai kisi chattan ki tarah khada raha tha aur ghar ke inhi sab halt ne use waqt se pahale sanjeeda aur bada kar diya tha. Par Manjari ne kabhi bhi Maanas ke maathe par shikan nahi dekhi thi ! Use kitne hi ladake line maarte the..itni khubsoorat thi ki jis ladake ko bol de, koi naa nahi karata lekin Maanas ne kabhi bharpoor nazar se dekha bhi nahi tha use !

Poonam ki shadi tay hone ke baad se Manas udas rahene laga tha..Manjari ne socha tha Poonam ki shaadi ke baad wo Manas ko apne dil ki baat bata degi , aur fir jo bhi kismat ka faisla ho use manjoor hoga ! lekin in sabse pahale hi ek din poonam ne use bataya.

“Manju, Manu kisi ladaki ko bahut chahata tha, wo ladaki kaun thi usane mujhe kabhi nhi bataya…bas itna kaha ha ki ek din jarur milwaunga...kal maine dekha mera bhai apne room me sisak sisak kar ro rha tha..maine bahut puchha lekin usne kuchh bataya nahi….pta nahi kya hua hai yaar..” Manjari ko poonam ki baat yaad aa rahi thi..aur ye bhi ki us raat wo khud kitna royi thi..jise chaha tha use bina paaye hi khoti jaa rahi thi ! usake baad se manjari ne kabhi Manas ko hansate nahi dekha!

Pata nahi kyun Manjari ko aisa lgta tha ki Poonam ki shadi ke baad se Manas aur jyada udaas ho gyaa tha pahale wo itna udaas hota nahi tha .

Manjari ka dimaag kuchh aur kah raha tha ,dil kuchh aur isi uded bun ke saath wo Manu ke har chal di .

Poonam ki Mummy use dekhkar bahut khush huyi ,Poonam ke jaane ke baad se Manjari unake ghar aana lagbhag chhod chuk thi .

“Poonam ki shaadi ho gayi to tune bhi hame chhod diya..? “ Mummy ne doodh me coffee daalte huye kaha aur wahi pass me kitchen ke reck par baithi manjari Manu ki talaash me aankhe nacha rahi thi .

“kuchh bolegi bhi ab ?”

“are nahi Aunty..aapne bhi to mujhe bhula diya..kabhi phone bhi nahi kiya” Manjari ne bina soche samjhe jawab diya.

“tujase to baat karana hi bekar hai..chal aaja..coffee ban gayi..” Mummy ne kaha to wo haath me cookies ka dibaas uthate huye bahar aa gayi .

Manjari Manas ko dekhna chahat thi aur koi 1 ghante ke intjaar ke baad Manu ki bike aakar ruki, Manjari ke dil ki dhadkan badh gayi, jaise koi chor ho usake man me. Manu anadr aaya, mummy ke haath me bag diya uski or dekha aur haule se muskurate huye “Hi” bola..Manjari ne bhi Hi kaha aur Manu andar chala gaya. Manjari ko Poonam ki baaten yaad aa rahi thi sachmuch kuchh gahri baat the jisne Manu ko poora ka poora badal kar rakh diya. Manjari ne bhi shiddat wala ishq kiya tha, ek pal me un aankhon ke pichhe chhupe dard ki gahrayi samjh gayi. Uske man me ek dwand abhi bhi chal raha tha. Dimaag kahta tha ki jiske dil me kisi aur ki chahat basi hai usake saath muhabbat ki duniya basaane ke sapne dekhane ka kya fayada lekin dil kahta tha – kitna udas ho gaya hai uska Manu?” aur bas dil ke is ek sawaal par dimaag ki tamaam daleelen feeki pad jaa rahi thi .

Anuty wo mujhe computer pe kuchh kaam tha ,mera laptop kharab ho gaya hai to..” manjari ne dimag lagaya Manu se akele me milane ka.

“Manu ko bula deti hun laptop de dega apana” Mummy ne kaha..

“nahi nahi..mai abhi do minute me aati hun ,desktop pe hi kar lungi..” Manjari ne kaha aur bina jawab sune andar chali gayi..Poonam ke hone par wo kitni baar hi us purane desktop par usake saath filmen dekha karati thi .

Manjari desktop ke saamne baithi sakht bore ho rahi thi..Manu apen room me tha ,aur darwaza band lag rha tha..Manjari bhi aajkuchh sochkar hi aayi thi..wo uthi aur Manu ke room ke darwaze pe dastak diya..

“aa jao Manjri” Manu ne pahchan liya tha .

“aapko kaise pata ki mai hi hun..”

“kyuki mummy aur dadi aise knock nahi karti..”

Manjri to pahle se hi kayal thi usaki..wo bed par aundhe muh leta tha, manjari table par pair latkakar baith gayi..

“batao ,kuchh kaam tha kya..?

“hainnnnnn?..mai kya yaha bina kaam ke nahi aa sakti..?”
“mere room me pahale kab aayi hi bina kaam ke..” manu ne kaha.

“haan to..bahut si chijen pahali baar hoti hain..” manjari ko aur kuchh soojha nahi..sahi hi kaha tha usne.

Manu ne kuchh nahi kaha!

“kahi ghoomne chalen..” manjari jo aamtaur pe Manu se sirf hi hello hi karti thi aaj jabrdasti ulti pulti baaten kar rahi thi .

Manu ne use dekha.. “tabiyat thik hai na tumhari..? ”

“han ekdam..kyun tum bimar ho , ghumne nahi jaa sakte..??”

Manu fir kuchh nahi bola..

“kya hua hai tumhe…?” aakhri manjari ne hathiyaar daal diya.
“matlab ?”

“aise bujhe bujhe se kyun ho…”

“nahi to..” Manu ne pahali baar gahri nazar se dekha usaki or.

“Manu ji ! duniya me aisa koi nahi hota jise kabhi sahaare ki jarurat na pade..sab insaan hi hain..” Manjari ne is baar ek thahre huye lahje me kaha aur ektak manu ko dekhati rahi..Manu bhi usaki or dekhta raha aur fir nazren jhuka lya usane.

“ aur kuchh log aise bhi hote hain jinse hum sabkuchh bata sakte hain is vishwas ke saath ke agar aap galat bhi huye to bhi wo aap ke saath khade rahenge..” Manu ne kabhi nahi socha tha ki aisi chulbuli aur chanchal si dikhani wali manjari aisi gahri baaten bhi kar sakti hai ! wo abhi bbhi chup hi raha!

Manjari thodi der baithi rahi ki shaayd Manu kuchh bole aur fir usne ek pen liya aur ek paper pe apna mob number likhkar jis table par baithi thi uski daraz me daal diya..

“meri baat sahi lagi ho to..” usane kaha aur bhari kadamo se kamre se bahar nikal gayi !

Raat ke 1 baj gaye the ..Manjari apne mobile ke seene se chipkaye har beet’te pal ke saath thodi aur udas hoti jaa rahi thi..use achchhi achchhi aur meaningful baaten karani nahi aati..aise baaten jo kisi ke dil ko chhu sake, kisi ko tasalli dila sake, apnepan ka ahsaas dila sake..tmaam khyal usake man me aa rahe the.use yakeen ho chala tha ki ab Manu call nahi karega.. ummeed ka diya bujha rha tha..lekin..usake Mobile ki thathrahat ne jaise use nayi saanse de di..jhat se call receive ki usane…lekin kuchh boli nahi..

“hello…” thodi der baad Manu ki aawaz aayi..

“hmm..jiiiii..” usane sone ka natak kiya..

“so gayi thi tum..”

“haan to”

“phone to bada jaldi utha liya..”

Manjari chup rahi,apni bevkoofi pe use gussa aane laga..use bhi pta lag gaya ki mai wait kar rahi thi phone aane ka ..huhhh !

“ jaanti ho insaan sabse jyada akela kab ho jaata hai..?” thodi der baad Manu ne kaha

Manjari ne kuchh nahi kaha..usaki saanse bevajah hi tej chalen lagi thi..

“jab us se kuchh galti ho jaati hai ya fir kuchh aisa ho jaata hai jise samaj me galat samjha jata hai -kuchh aisa jise wo accept nahi kar pata- kyuki wo baat wo kisi ko kah nahi pata..darata hai log hasenge..kya sochenge uske bare me..etc etc…” Manu ne kaha !

“jo apne hote hain wo hmesa apne hote hain, jab aap galat ho tab bhi..” Manjari ne kaha .

“hmm, lekin hum log apno ko dard nahi dete ..”

“dard bant’na dard dena nahi hota” Manjari ne kaha aur dono chup ho gaye..

“Manu, tum mujhe kah sakte ho, is yakeen ke saath ki meri soch tumhare bare me kabhi nahi badlegi..itna to jaanti hun main tumhe..” Manjari use yakeen dila rahi thi !

“ Mai poetry likhta hun, likhta tha actually, bahut sari baaten hoti thi jo kisi se kah nahi pata tha kyuki ghar me pahale se hi bahut masale the..to apni dil ki baat kaagaz pe utaar deta tha.. kuch arse ke baad ek din aise hi man kiya to youtube pe upload kar diya ek kavita..aur dheere dheere meri aadat ban gayi..bahut se log judate gaye..log pasand karate the to aisa lgta tha is duniya me meri bhi koi value hai..virtual world me hi sahi. Aur fir ek din mujhe youtube pe ek msg aaya..ek ldaki ka…hum facebook pe jude..usne bataya ki use meri poetry bahut pasand hai..hum kaafi baaten karane lage..aur kuchh dino baad usne kaha ki use mujhse muhabbat hai..mujhe achchha nahi laga aisa nahi kahunga..lekin us din mai vastvikata ki duniya me laut aaya. Maine use bata diya ki virtual world me shayad mai use kuchh bahut badi hasti lgta hun lekin real me mai kuchh nahi hun..sabkuchh bata diya use..lekin usane kaha use sirf mujhase matlab hai ,meri haisiyat ,dharm, jaat se koi fark nahi padata..”

Manu bolta jaa raha tha aur usaki aawaz bheegati jaa rahi thi , Manjari usaki aawaz me dard mahsoos karake khud bhi ruaanasa ho gayi thi .

“ fir ?”
“ fir hum bahot baaten karane lage..phone pe..aur saath jeene marane ki kasamen.. dheere dheere kuchh dino baad wo mujhe avoid karane lagi aisa mujhe lgane laga….dhaai saal tak..” Manu ruk gaya..

“ mai 10-10 baar call karata lekin koi jawab nahi aataa..fir ek din achanak usaka message aaya ki wo hamesa ke liye India chhod ke jaa rahi hai..aur mai aage se kabhi use message aur call karane ki kosis na karun..” Manu ki aawaz bharra gayi !

Manjari ekdam shaant!!

“ mai samajh gaya tha ki meri poetry ka tilism khatm ho gaya tha..use mujhse kabhi muhabbat huyi hi nahi thi, muhabbat use meri kavitaon se thi..shaayad!!...lekin mai use sach me bahut chaahane laga tha..” Manu jaise ki soch me doob gaya tha, jaise kisi aur ko yakeen dilana chah raha tha !

“hmm..fir kabhi baat huyi ?” Manjari ko dukh ho raha tha!

“ nahi..us din ke baad usaka number band aane laga…maine bahut baar call kiya, lekin..kisi bhi tarah se koi contact nahi ho paya..”

“shayad usaki koi majboori rahi ho..?” Manjari ne kaha !

"hmm..jarur rahi hogi..lekin jaanti ho?”

“kyaa..?”
“ Poonam ki shaadi me aayi thi wo, baarat ke saath” bade haule se dhamaka kiya tha Manu ne.

“whaaatttttt….???? Fir ?? mili tumse..? pahchaana usane tumhe..?? kuchh baat ki tumne..??” Manjari ke man me laakhon sawal the..

“jaan kar anjaan ban gayi..hazaron message the mere paaas..dikhaye maine..kaise nahi pahchanati, lekin usane kya kaha janati ho ??---“aapko koi galatfahmi huyi hai..mai aapko nahi jaanti” Manu aise hansa jaise khud ka hi majak bana udaa raha ho !

“kya pata wo koi aur hi rahi ho..?” Manjari ne kaha , “tumne pata karane ki kosis nahi ki baad me ki wo ladaki kaun hai ?”

“pta kiya maine..pta chala dulhe ke kisi dost ki bahan hai..naam Shruti…mujhe usane Anjali bataya tha..” Manjari chup ho gayi .

“usane ek baar bhi meri taraf nahi dekha”

“ khud pe hansi aa rahi thi mujhe, shayad tumhe bhi aa rahi hogi…bina dekhe bina mile pyar kiya tha maine..majaak hai na” manu hans raha tha, khud ke dard pe shayad.

“wo ladaki koi aur bhi ho sakati hai na..aisa bhi to ho sakata hai..” Manjari ne kaha !

“tumhe kisi se muhabbat ho gayi agar kabhi na to dhadakn se pachan jaogi, shakl dekhane ki bhi jarurat nahi padegi..” Manu kisi aur hi duniya me tha aur manjari shabd viheen ho gayi !

“poonam se baat karake us ladaki ke bare me pta to lagaa sakte ho..?”

“ kis liye? Ab kis liye..? bas itni si baat ka dukh hai ki kaash wo kabhi milti hi nahi, ek bharam rah jata muhabbat ke hone ka..” Manu ne kaha !

Manjari usaki baat sunkar chup ho gayi thi, jo usake man me aa raha tha usame use aisi koi baat nahi lag rahi thi ki Manu itna dukhi ho , aajkal to shadi ke baad rishte nahi chalate ,real life me bhi aajkal hafte do hafte me lovers badal jaate hain , to aisi muhabbat ke toot jaane ka kaisa gham jo kabhi mili hi nahi . dusari taraf Manu bhi shayad samajh gaya tha ki Mnajri kya soch rahi hai .

“thanks, meri baat sun’ne ke liye..raat bahut ho gayi..so jaate hain..” Manu ne kaha

“hmm..” shayad Manjri ke muhabbat ka tilism bhi toot gaya tha..Manu use bahut mature, samajhdaar aur suljha hua lagta tha, lekin aaj jis tarah se usane us ladaki pe saara iljaam laga diya tha us se manjari kaafi soch me pad gayi thi !

“ Goodnight” Manu ne kaha

“agar kabhi wo ladaki mil jaaye fir se to..” Manjari ne puchha..

“to bas itna puchhunga, kabhi muhabbat huyi hai kya aapko ?”

Bada ajeeb sa jawab diya tha Manu ne…dono phone rakh chuke the..Manjari ki deewanagi jaati rahi, Manu to bada aam sa insaan nikalaa tha . Zindagi me aage badh jaane ka faislaa kar liya tha usane.

22 saal ho gaye the mujhe Manu se mile huye..aaj Poonam ke bêti ki shadi thi aur usane bahut jor diya tha ki mai aaun..flight ke teen ticket bhi bhej diye the..mere pati aur chhoti beti ke liye..jaisa ki aamtaur pe hota tha, mai akele hi jaa rahi thi. Poonam ab Delhi me hi rahati thi aur aaj shadi bhi whi ek hotel me ho rahi thi..airport pe gaadi lene aayi aur sham ke 4 baje mai poonam ke ghar ke liye rawana ho gayi…koi 45 minute ka safar tha aisa driver ne bataya.

Pichhle 20-22 saalon me Meri zindagi ki kahani kuchh jyada dilcasp nahi thi.. shadi meri zindagi ka sabse bura chapter tha, mere pati income tax officer the..office ke baad unaki saari dhauns mujhape nikalti thi..bachche bhi baap par hi gaye the..meri ahmiayt ghar ke kisi purane bartan ki tarah ho gayi thi..na mere rahane se kisi ko fark padana tha aur na hi naa rahne se..kahane ko Zindagi me sabkuchh mila tha , bas Muhabbat ke siwaay...Manu kabhi kabhi bahut yaad aate the lekin maine kabhi unake bare me jaan’ne ki kosis nahi ki. Aaj poonam se milane ki khushi tse jyada Manu ko dekhane ki chahat.

Poonam sachche purane dosto ki tarah mili thi..mujhe gale lagate lagate aankh bhar aayi usaki, mere andar shayad ye wale emotions bahut pahale hi dam tod chuke the..Poonam ki sirf ek beti thi ,khubsoorat jaheen, hansmukh .. usake pati bhi khushmizaj the….sab muhabbat se mile the mujhase…lekin mujhe ab tak wo nahi dikha tha jise dekhane ko dil taras raha tha !

Lagbhag 35-40 minute beet gaye to mane poonam se puchha.. “Manu nahi aaye hain kya…”

“ Aaya hai na..yahi honga kahi..wo dekh..udhar..” Poonam ne ek or ungali uthayi…

Maine us or dekha aur dekhati rahi..Manu kafi badal gaye the….maroon colour ka rajsthani kurta aur kaal pajama pahane , clean shave me wo pahal se bhi jyada smart lag rahe the..hotho pe halki si hansi aur aankho me duniya bhar ki sukoon, bagal me baithi aurat ki baat dhyan se sun rahe the.. mai pahchaan bhi na pati khud se dekhati to..shayad mai bhool gayi thi ki 22 saal bahut waqt hota hai..shayad isliye bhool gayi thi kyuki mera waqt thahar gaya tha, ek galat faisle ki vajah se.

“mai aati hun..” maine kaha aur us or badh gayi !

Kuchh door pe ruk gayi..Manu ne meri or dekha … “mai abhi aaya..excuse me please..” unhone kaha aur uth gaye.

“kaisi hain aap..”dono haath jodkar namaste karte huye kaha unhone..badi ajeeb si sharmindagi ho rahi thi mujhe..wo ek pal me pahchan gaye the mujhe.

“thik hun main aap kaise hain..” maine kaha

Wo mere family aur life ke bare me puchhane lage..aur mai kuchh chhupaati kuchh batati unake saath chalne lagi..hum saath chal rahe the aur walk karte karte hotel me bane fawware ke paas aa gaye jidhar kam log the..wahi fawware ke paas baith gaye..

“aap kuchh bataiye..kaisi chal rahi life..”

“bas dua hai aap logo ki, sab badhiya hai..” uanki aawaz me ek rawaani thi..aaj bhi , pahale se kahi jyada..

“kaha rahte hain aap..family kaha hai? ”

“Banglore me ek chhoti si software firm hai meri..wahi rahata hun..”

“bachche kitane hain..” maine puchha !

“ek beti hai..”

“aur madam kaha hain..aapki wife..” bada ajeeb laga tha ye puchhna..

Unhone ne dekha meri taraf….muskuraye aur fir use thare se andaz me bole.. “ek tarfaa muhabbat karane wale humsafar ki tamnna nahi karte”

“fir beti?”

“god liya hai maine.”

Mai unhe dekhati rahi..dekhati rahi..aur apani nazaro me girati rahi..22 saal pahale maine jis insaan ko judge kiya tha, jiska bharosa toda tha aaj wo mujhe khud se bahut unchaai pe nazar aa raha tha… “log kya sochenge mere bare me, hansenge,,is dar se kisi ko nahi batata” mujhe unaki us raat ki ye baat yaad aa rahi thi..22 saalo me ek bhi aisi raat nahi thi jab mujhe ye baat yaad na aayi ho..unhone mujhpae yakeen karake mujhe apana sach bataya tha , aur maine bhi wahi kiya..unpe hansi aur chali gayi-

“ek baat puchhun..?” maine kaha
“jee”
“kabhi mili fir wo ..”
“nahi”
“fir??”
“muhabbat to maine ki thi, ummeeden unse kyun..” wo muskurate huye bole !
“shikayat to hogi ?”
“thi, jab ye socha tha ki unhe bhi muhabbat hai..” Manu ne kaha

“ pata ha aapko, ek waqt ke baad ye dar jaata raha ki log kya sochenge, log hansenge..bas Muhabbat bachati hai..ummeed bhi nahi..sirf muhabbat..” Mujhe aaj fir Manu pagal lag rahe the

“itna aasan hai kya khud ko barbaad kar lena..?” mere muh se nikal gaya

“jee, bas muhabbat hona aasan nahi hota uske baad sabkuchh aasan hai..”

Wo muskura rahe the aur barso baad meri aankho me aansoo the..unhone jise chaha usake naam zindagi kar di aur maine jis se chaaha usake saath chaar kadam bhi nahi chal paayi...shayad isiliye mujhe muhabbat mili nahi ..mera dard pighal raha tha ….ek din main kisi ki muhabbat pe hansi thi, aur aaj meri muhabbat mujhpe hans rahi thi.

[Stone cold]

Na Hansna meri Muhabbat pe !​

“ Manu??!!” darwaaze par do baar dastak huyi aur fir mummi ki aawaz sunayi di .. aankhen band karte huye bistar se uth gaya ..

“haan mummy..aataa hun das minute me” Manu ne kaha. Saai raat aankho me beeti thi ! kitna mushkil hota hai ye dikhana ki aap thik hain !

“beta, sab thik hai na??” Mummi ki aawaz me fikr thi..

“haan mamma..aap chalo mai aaya..” Maine kaha!

Mummy kuchh der khadi rahi fir wapas chal di. Manu, usaki mummy aur dadi..bas teen lag rahte the is 4 kamre ke ghar me. Rajsthan ke Jaipur city se koi 25 kilomtre paschim me tha unka gaaon..ab to gaon nahi town-area ho gaya tha. Kuchh din tak pahale is ghar me ek chautha sadasy bhi tha..poonam ! Manu ki badi bahan, lekin 3 mahine pahale hi usaki shadi ho gayi thi aur wo apne pati ke saath banglore chali gayi thi !

Mummy aakar daadi ke paas baith gayi jo ek thaali me matar chheel rahi thi !

“kuchh batata bhi nahi , kaisa bujhaa bujhaa sa rahane laga hai…kya karun mai is ladake ka..” Mummy dadi ke paas khaat pe baithate huye boli !

“shaadi kar de isaki..kab se to kah rahi hun..”daadi ke paas har problem ka readymade solution hota tha. Jab se poonam gayi hai tabase hi udaas rah rahaa hai na..biwi aa jayegi to bas dekhna fir” daadi ne bade chaav se muskuraate huye kaha ! lekin mummy ke chehare pe abhi bhi paresaan jhalak rahi thi !

“ poonam ke jaane ka asar to us pe pada hi hai, dono me jaan basati thi ek dusare ki ..ab shadi bhi kaise kar dun..ek baar bhi haan nahi kahata..”Mummy ne kaha !

“are thode na wo kahega meri shaadi kar do ….ladake to kahte hi hain nahi karana..” daadi ko na samjhana aasana tha na harana.

Mummy chup ho gayi aur matar chheelane lagi !

15 min beete honge aur Manu aakar unake paas baith gaya..wo poora taiyar hokar aaya tha ..office jaane ke liye.

“kaha jaa raha hai..” Daadi ne ghurate huye kaha !

“office daadi..”Manu ne kaha !

“hainnnnnn? Aaj itwaar hai ..” daadi ne aankh tedh karte huye kaha

“Manu ! beta baith ..naashta to kar le..”

“haan maa, le aao” manu paas chair pe baith gaya ! Mummy ne pyar se apne bête ko dekha aur andar chali gayi !

“oye ladake.. ab bata..ye itwaar ko kabse aafis chalane laga..ab kya muye itwaar ko bhi chhutti nahi denge..”dadi ne puchha !

“haan dadi thoda kaam jyada hai..”

“ dusari naukari kar le fir..jisme 6 ghante kaam karan ho bas..ham ab teri shadi karane wale hain..” dadi ke nazar se to duniya me sabkuch kitna aasan tha !

“jee..jaldi hi chhod dunga ye naukri..”Manu kabhi bhi dadi se bahas nahi karta tha..aise me daadi ko Poona ki badi yaad aati thi, jo kabhi daadi ke saamne hathiyar nahi daalti thi jabtak daai kuchh khichkar usako maar na den !

Dadi chup ho gayi..ab to dadi ko bhi fikar hone lagi thi..unake hisab se jab koi insane unse itni aasani se haar maan le to jarur usaki tabiyat kuchh kharab hai !
Manu chupchaap nashta karane lagi Mummy use dekhati rahi ..

“jaane kya ho gaya hai mere bachchhe ko” Manu nashta karake jaa chukka tha aur mummy abhi bhi usi ke bare me soch rahi thi !

“manjari, kuch thik nahi hai yaar..aaj maa se baat ho rahi thi..Manu shayad un sab baton ko bhool nahi paa raha hai..” Poonam phone par apani best friend manjari se baat kar rahi thi !

“to tum kyu nahi baat karati Manu se..” manjari ne kaha !

“are mujhse bhi kaha baat karta hai wo..kabhi kuchh batata hi nahi..us bare me to baat hi nahi karata..” poonam bhi fikrmand thi !

“hmm..” manjari ne kaha

“sun ek help karegi meri..” poona ne kaha !

“kkyaa..”

“tu Manu se milegi..usake saath thoda time spend karegi kya ?? ..shayad use ek dost ki jarurat hai..” poonam ne kaha !

“kya kah rahi hai tu..” Manjari ne chaunkate huye kaha !

“ek din mil le us se..fir jaisa sahi lage karana..please..” poonam ne kaha !

“sorry yaar..mujhse ye sab nahi hoga..tu bhi samjah rahi hai tu kya bol rahi hai..” Manjari ne kaha !

“hmm..sorry..chal thik h ..baad me baat karate hain..”

Poonam apne bhai ke liye bahut paresan ho rahi thi ! aur idhar Manjari soch me pad gayi thi !

Maanas urf Manu ! usaka pahala pyaar !

Manjari ke dimaag me saari purani baaten chalen lagi thi..apani sabse achhii dost ke chhote bhai se pyaar kar baithi thi lekin kabhi himmat nahi kar paayi kahane ki ! Maanas thaa to Poonam se chhota lekin jimmedari saari usane bade bhai ki tarah nibhayi thi ! 12th ke baad se hi Manas Job karane laga tha…correspondence se B.A aur fir M.B.A..aaj Maanas ek kaafi bade hotel me asst. manager tha..salary thik thaak thi aur Poonam ki shaadi ki saari jimmedari bhi Maanas ne hi poori ki thi ! Manjari aksar Poonam ke saath hi college se aati thi aur kayi baar wo dono hi Manas ki bike par aati thin , kitne khubsoorat hote the wo pal !

Maanas ki sanjidagi ki deewani thi Manjari..poonam school time se usaki dost thi , ghar ke saare haalat us se bata deti thi..ghar ki arthik pareshaniyan, Papa ke liye nafarat aur dadi ke taane….usake papa ne dusari shadi kit hi aur dadi ki nazar me usaki jimmedar bhi maa tha. Kuchh bhi achchha nahi tha unaki ife me, lekin Uska bhai kisi chattan ki tarah khada raha tha aur ghar ke inhi sab halt ne use waqt se pahale sanjeeda aur bada kar diya tha. Par Manjari ne kabhi bhi Maanas ke maathe par shikan nahi dekhi thi ! Use kitne hi ladake line maarte the..itni khubsoorat thi ki jis ladake ko bol de, koi naa nahi karata lekin Maanas ne kabhi bharpoor nazar se dekha bhi nahi tha use !

Poonam ki shadi tay hone ke baad se Manas udas rahene laga tha..Manjari ne socha tha Poonam ki shaadi ke baad wo Manas ko apne dil ki baat bata degi , aur fir jo bhi kismat ka faisla ho use manjoor hoga ! lekin in sabse pahale hi ek din poonam ne use bataya.

“Manju, Manu kisi ladaki ko bahut chahata tha, wo ladaki kaun thi usane mujhe kabhi nhi bataya…bas itna kaha ha ki ek din jarur milwaunga...kal maine dekha mera bhai apne room me sisak sisak kar ro rha tha..maine bahut puchha lekin usne kuchh bataya nahi….pta nahi kya hua hai yaar..” Manjari ko poonam ki baat yaad aa rahi thi..aur ye bhi ki us raat wo khud kitna royi thi..jise chaha tha use bina paaye hi khoti jaa rahi thi ! usake baad se manjari ne kabhi Manas ko hansate nahi dekha!

Pata nahi kyun Manjari ko aisa lgta tha ki Poonam ki shadi ke baad se Manas aur jyada udaas ho gyaa tha pahale wo itna udaas hota nahi tha .

Manjari ka dimaag kuchh aur kah raha tha ,dil kuchh aur isi uded bun ke saath wo Manu ke har chal di .

Poonam ki Mummy use dekhkar bahut khush huyi ,Poonam ke jaane ke baad se Manjari unake ghar aana lagbhag chhod chuk thi .

“Poonam ki shaadi ho gayi to tune bhi hame chhod diya..? “ Mummy ne doodh me coffee daalte huye kaha aur wahi pass me kitchen ke reck par baithi manjari Manu ki talaash me aankhe nacha rahi thi .

“kuchh bolegi bhi ab ?”

“are nahi Aunty..aapne bhi to mujhe bhula diya..kabhi phone bhi nahi kiya” Manjari ne bina soche samjhe jawab diya.

“tujase to baat karana hi bekar hai..chal aaja..coffee ban gayi..” Mummy ne kaha to wo haath me cookies ka dibaas uthate huye bahar aa gayi .

Manjari Manas ko dekhna chahat thi aur koi 1 ghante ke intjaar ke baad Manu ki bike aakar ruki, Manjari ke dil ki dhadkan badh gayi, jaise koi chor ho usake man me. Manu anadr aaya, mummy ke haath me bag diya uski or dekha aur haule se muskurate huye “Hi” bola..Manjari ne bhi Hi kaha aur Manu andar chala gaya. Manjari ko Poonam ki baaten yaad aa rahi thi sachmuch kuchh gahri baat the jisne Manu ko poora ka poora badal kar rakh diya. Manjari ne bhi shiddat wala ishq kiya tha, ek pal me un aankhon ke pichhe chhupe dard ki gahrayi samjh gayi. Uske man me ek dwand abhi bhi chal raha tha. Dimaag kahta tha ki jiske dil me kisi aur ki chahat basi hai usake saath muhabbat ki duniya basaane ke sapne dekhane ka kya fayada lekin dil kahta tha – kitna udas ho gaya hai uska Manu?” aur bas dil ke is ek sawaal par dimaag ki tamaam daleelen feeki pad jaa rahi thi .

Anuty wo mujhe computer pe kuchh kaam tha ,mera laptop kharab ho gaya hai to..” manjari ne dimag lagaya Manu se akele me milane ka.

“Manu ko bula deti hun laptop de dega apana” Mummy ne kaha..

“nahi nahi..mai abhi do minute me aati hun ,desktop pe hi kar lungi..” Manjari ne kaha aur bina jawab sune andar chali gayi..Poonam ke hone par wo kitni baar hi us purane desktop par usake saath filmen dekha karati thi .

Manjari desktop ke saamne baithi sakht bore ho rahi thi..Manu apen room me tha ,aur darwaza band lag rha tha..Manjari bhi aajkuchh sochkar hi aayi thi..wo uthi aur Manu ke room ke darwaze pe dastak diya..

“aa jao Manjri” Manu ne pahchan liya tha .

“aapko kaise pata ki mai hi hun..”

“kyuki mummy aur dadi aise knock nahi karti..”

Manjri to pahle se hi kayal thi usaki..wo bed par aundhe muh leta tha, manjari table par pair latkakar baith gayi..

“batao ,kuchh kaam tha kya..?

“hainnnnnn?..mai kya yaha bina kaam ke nahi aa sakti..?”
“mere room me pahale kab aayi hi bina kaam ke..” manu ne kaha.

“haan to..bahut si chijen pahali baar hoti hain..” manjari ko aur kuchh soojha nahi..sahi hi kaha tha usne.

Manu ne kuchh nahi kaha!

“kahi ghoomne chalen..” manjari jo aamtaur pe Manu se sirf hi hello hi karti thi aaj jabrdasti ulti pulti baaten kar rahi thi .

Manu ne use dekha.. “tabiyat thik hai na tumhari..? ”

“han ekdam..kyun tum bimar ho , ghumne nahi jaa sakte..??”

Manu fir kuchh nahi bola..

“kya hua hai tumhe…?” aakhri manjari ne hathiyaar daal diya.
“matlab ?”

“aise bujhe bujhe se kyun ho…”

“nahi to..” Manu ne pahali baar gahri nazar se dekha usaki or.

“Manu ji ! duniya me aisa koi nahi hota jise kabhi sahaare ki jarurat na pade..sab insaan hi hain..” Manjari ne is baar ek thahre huye lahje me kaha aur ektak manu ko dekhati rahi..Manu bhi usaki or dekhta raha aur fir nazren jhuka lya usane.

“ aur kuchh log aise bhi hote hain jinse hum sabkuchh bata sakte hain is vishwas ke saath ke agar aap galat bhi huye to bhi wo aap ke saath khade rahenge..” Manu ne kabhi nahi socha tha ki aisi chulbuli aur chanchal si dikhani wali manjari aisi gahri baaten bhi kar sakti hai ! wo abhi bbhi chup hi raha!

Manjari thodi der baithi rahi ki shaayd Manu kuchh bole aur fir usne ek pen liya aur ek paper pe apna mob number likhkar jis table par baithi thi uski daraz me daal diya..

“meri baat sahi lagi ho to..” usane kaha aur bhari kadamo se kamre se bahar nikal gayi !

Raat ke 1 baj gaye the ..Manjari apne mobile ke seene se chipkaye har beet’te pal ke saath thodi aur udas hoti jaa rahi thi..use achchhi achchhi aur meaningful baaten karani nahi aati..aise baaten jo kisi ke dil ko chhu sake, kisi ko tasalli dila sake, apnepan ka ahsaas dila sake..tmaam khyal usake man me aa rahe the.use yakeen ho chala tha ki ab Manu call nahi karega.. ummeed ka diya bujha rha tha..lekin..usake Mobile ki thathrahat ne jaise use nayi saanse de di..jhat se call receive ki usane…lekin kuchh boli nahi..

“hello…” thodi der baad Manu ki aawaz aayi..

“hmm..jiiiii..” usane sone ka natak kiya..

“so gayi thi tum..”

“haan to”

“phone to bada jaldi utha liya..”

Manjari chup rahi,apni bevkoofi pe use gussa aane laga..use bhi pta lag gaya ki mai wait kar rahi thi phone aane ka ..huhhh !

“ jaanti ho insaan sabse jyada akela kab ho jaata hai..?” thodi der baad Manu ne kaha

Manjari ne kuchh nahi kaha..usaki saanse bevajah hi tej chalen lagi thi..

“jab us se kuchh galti ho jaati hai ya fir kuchh aisa ho jaata hai jise samaj me galat samjha jata hai -kuchh aisa jise wo accept nahi kar pata- kyuki wo baat wo kisi ko kah nahi pata..darata hai log hasenge..kya sochenge uske bare me..etc etc…” Manu ne kaha !

“jo apne hote hain wo hmesa apne hote hain, jab aap galat ho tab bhi..” Manjari ne kaha .

“hmm, lekin hum log apno ko dard nahi dete ..”

“dard bant’na dard dena nahi hota” Manjari ne kaha aur dono chup ho gaye..

“Manu, tum mujhe kah sakte ho, is yakeen ke saath ki meri soch tumhare bare me kabhi nahi badlegi..itna to jaanti hun main tumhe..” Manjari use yakeen dila rahi thi !

“ Mai poetry likhta hun, likhta tha actually, bahut sari baaten hoti thi jo kisi se kah nahi pata tha kyuki ghar me pahale se hi bahut masale the..to apni dil ki baat kaagaz pe utaar deta tha.. kuch arse ke baad ek din aise hi man kiya to youtube pe upload kar diya ek kavita..aur dheere dheere meri aadat ban gayi..bahut se log judate gaye..log pasand karate the to aisa lgta tha is duniya me meri bhi koi value hai..virtual world me hi sahi. Aur fir ek din mujhe youtube pe ek msg aaya..ek ldaki ka…hum facebook pe jude..usne bataya ki use meri poetry bahut pasand hai..hum kaafi baaten karane lage..aur kuchh dino baad usne kaha ki use mujhse muhabbat hai..mujhe achchha nahi laga aisa nahi kahunga..lekin us din mai vastvikata ki duniya me laut aaya. Maine use bata diya ki virtual world me shayad mai use kuchh bahut badi hasti lgta hun lekin real me mai kuchh nahi hun..sabkuchh bata diya use..lekin usane kaha use sirf mujhase matlab hai ,meri haisiyat ,dharm, jaat se koi fark nahi padata..”

Manu bolta jaa raha tha aur usaki aawaz bheegati jaa rahi thi , Manjari usaki aawaz me dard mahsoos karake khud bhi ruaanasa ho gayi thi .

“ fir ?”
“ fir hum bahot baaten karane lage..phone pe..aur saath jeene marane ki kasamen.. dheere dheere kuchh dino baad wo mujhe avoid karane lagi aisa mujhe lgane laga….dhaai saal tak..” Manu ruk gaya..

“ mai 10-10 baar call karata lekin koi jawab nahi aataa..fir ek din achanak usaka message aaya ki wo hamesa ke liye India chhod ke jaa rahi hai..aur mai aage se kabhi use message aur call karane ki kosis na karun..” Manu ki aawaz bharra gayi !

Manjari ekdam shaant!!

“ mai samajh gaya tha ki meri poetry ka tilism khatm ho gaya tha..use mujhse kabhi muhabbat huyi hi nahi thi, muhabbat use meri kavitaon se thi..shaayad!!...lekin mai use sach me bahut chaahane laga tha..” Manu jaise ki soch me doob gaya tha, jaise kisi aur ko yakeen dilana chah raha tha !

“hmm..fir kabhi baat huyi ?” Manjari ko dukh ho raha tha!

“ nahi..us din ke baad usaka number band aane laga…maine bahut baar call kiya, lekin..kisi bhi tarah se koi contact nahi ho paya..”

“shayad usaki koi majboori rahi ho..?” Manjari ne kaha !

"hmm..jarur rahi hogi..lekin jaanti ho?”

“kyaa..?”
“ Poonam ki shaadi me aayi thi wo, baarat ke saath” bade haule se dhamaka kiya tha Manu ne.

“whaaatttttt….???? Fir ?? mili tumse..? pahchaana usane tumhe..?? kuchh baat ki tumne..??” Manjari ke man me laakhon sawal the..

“jaan kar anjaan ban gayi..hazaron message the mere paaas..dikhaye maine..kaise nahi pahchanati, lekin usane kya kaha janati ho ??---“aapko koi galatfahmi huyi hai..mai aapko nahi jaanti” Manu aise hansa jaise khud ka hi majak bana udaa raha ho !

“kya pata wo koi aur hi rahi ho..?” Manjari ne kaha , “tumne pata karane ki kosis nahi ki baad me ki wo ladaki kaun hai ?”

“pta kiya maine..pta chala dulhe ke kisi dost ki bahan hai..naam Shruti…mujhe usane Anjali bataya tha..” Manjari chup ho gayi .

“usane ek baar bhi meri taraf nahi dekha”

“ khud pe hansi aa rahi thi mujhe, shayad tumhe bhi aa rahi hogi…bina dekhe bina mile pyar kiya tha maine..majaak hai na” manu hans raha tha, khud ke dard pe shayad.

“wo ladaki koi aur bhi ho sakati hai na..aisa bhi to ho sakata hai..” Manjari ne kaha !

“tumhe kisi se muhabbat ho gayi agar kabhi na to dhadakn se pachan jaogi, shakl dekhane ki bhi jarurat nahi padegi..” Manu kisi aur hi duniya me tha aur manjari shabd viheen ho gayi !

“poonam se baat karake us ladaki ke bare me pta to lagaa sakte ho..?”

“ kis liye? Ab kis liye..? bas itni si baat ka dukh hai ki kaash wo kabhi milti hi nahi, ek bharam rah jata muhabbat ke hone ka..” Manu ne kaha !

Manjari usaki baat sunkar chup ho gayi thi, jo usake man me aa raha tha usame use aisi koi baat nahi lag rahi thi ki Manu itna dukhi ho , aajkal to shadi ke baad rishte nahi chalate ,real life me bhi aajkal hafte do hafte me lovers badal jaate hain , to aisi muhabbat ke toot jaane ka kaisa gham jo kabhi mili hi nahi . dusari taraf Manu bhi shayad samajh gaya tha ki Mnajri kya soch rahi hai .

“thanks, meri baat sun’ne ke liye..raat bahut ho gayi..so jaate hain..” Manu ne kaha

“hmm..” shayad Manjri ke muhabbat ka tilism bhi toot gaya tha..Manu use bahut mature, samajhdaar aur suljha hua lagta tha, lekin aaj jis tarah se usane us ladaki pe saara iljaam laga diya tha us se manjari kaafi soch me pad gayi thi !

“ Goodnight” Manu ne kaha

“agar kabhi wo ladaki mil jaaye fir se to..” Manjari ne puchha..

“to bas itna puchhunga, kabhi muhabbat huyi hai kya aapko ?”

Bada ajeeb sa jawab diya tha Manu ne…dono phone rakh chuke the..Manjari ki deewanagi jaati rahi, Manu to bada aam sa insaan nikalaa tha . Zindagi me aage badh jaane ka faislaa kar liya tha usane.

22 saal ho gaye the mujhe Manu se mile huye..aaj Poonam ke bêti ki shadi thi aur usane bahut jor diya tha ki mai aaun..flight ke teen ticket bhi bhej diye the..mere pati aur chhoti beti ke liye..jaisa ki aamtaur pe hota tha, mai akele hi jaa rahi thi. Poonam ab Delhi me hi rahati thi aur aaj shadi bhi whi ek hotel me ho rahi thi..airport pe gaadi lene aayi aur sham ke 4 baje mai poonam ke ghar ke liye rawana ho gayi…koi 45 minute ka safar tha aisa driver ne bataya.

Pichhle 20-22 saalon me Meri zindagi ki kahani kuchh jyada dilcasp nahi thi.. shadi meri zindagi ka sabse bura chapter tha, mere pati income tax officer the..office ke baad unaki saari dhauns mujhape nikalti thi..bachche bhi baap par hi gaye the..meri ahmiayt ghar ke kisi purane bartan ki tarah ho gayi thi..na mere rahane se kisi ko fark padana tha aur na hi naa rahne se..kahane ko Zindagi me sabkuchh mila tha , bas Muhabbat ke siwaay...Manu kabhi kabhi bahut yaad aate the lekin maine kabhi unake bare me jaan’ne ki kosis nahi ki. Aaj poonam se milane ki khushi tse jyada Manu ko dekhane ki chahat.

Poonam sachche purane dosto ki tarah mili thi..mujhe gale lagate lagate aankh bhar aayi usaki, mere andar shayad ye wale emotions bahut pahale hi dam tod chuke the..Poonam ki sirf ek beti thi ,khubsoorat jaheen, hansmukh .. usake pati bhi khushmizaj the….sab muhabbat se mile the mujhase…lekin mujhe ab tak wo nahi dikha tha jise dekhane ko dil taras raha tha !

Lagbhag 35-40 minute beet gaye to mane poonam se puchha.. “Manu nahi aaye hain kya…”

“ Aaya hai na..yahi honga kahi..wo dekh..udhar..” Poonam ne ek or ungali uthayi…

Maine us or dekha aur dekhati rahi..Manu kafi badal gaye the….maroon colour ka rajsthani kurta aur kaal pajama pahane , clean shave me wo pahal se bhi jyada smart lag rahe the..hotho pe halki si hansi aur aankho me duniya bhar ki sukoon, bagal me baithi aurat ki baat dhyan se sun rahe the.. mai pahchaan bhi na pati khud se dekhati to..shayad mai bhool gayi thi ki 22 saal bahut waqt hota hai..shayad isliye bhool gayi thi kyuki mera waqt thahar gaya tha, ek galat faisle ki vajah se.

“mai aati hun..” maine kaha aur us or badh gayi !

Kuchh door pe ruk gayi..Manu ne meri or dekha … “mai abhi aaya..excuse me please..” unhone kaha aur uth gaye.

“kaisi hain aap..”dono haath jodkar namaste karte huye kaha unhone..badi ajeeb si sharmindagi ho rahi thi mujhe..wo ek pal me pahchan gaye the mujhe.

“thik hun main aap kaise hain..” maine kaha

Wo mere family aur life ke bare me puchhane lage..aur mai kuchh chhupaati kuchh batati unake saath chalne lagi..hum saath chal rahe the aur walk karte karte hotel me bane fawware ke paas aa gaye jidhar kam log the..wahi fawware ke paas baith gaye..

“aap kuchh bataiye..kaisi chal rahi life..”

“bas dua hai aap logo ki, sab badhiya hai..” uanki aawaz me ek rawaani thi..aaj bhi , pahale se kahi jyada..

“kaha rahte hain aap..family kaha hai? ”

“Banglore me ek chhoti si software firm hai meri..wahi rahata hun..”

“bachche kitane hain..” maine puchha !

“ek beti hai..”

“aur madam kaha hain..aapki wife..” bada ajeeb laga tha ye puchhna..

Unhone ne dekha meri taraf….muskuraye aur fir use thare se andaz me bole.. “ek tarfaa muhabbat karane wale humsafar ki tamnna nahi karte”

“fir beti?”

“god liya hai maine.”

Mai unhe dekhati rahi..dekhati rahi..aur apani nazaro me girati rahi..22 saal pahale maine jis insaan ko judge kiya tha, jiska bharosa toda tha aaj wo mujhe khud se bahut unchaai pe nazar aa raha tha… “log kya sochenge mere bare me, hansenge,,is dar se kisi ko nahi batata” mujhe unaki us raat ki ye baat yaad aa rahi thi..22 saalo me ek bhi aisi raat nahi thi jab mujhe ye baat yaad na aayi ho..unhone mujhpae yakeen karake mujhe apana sach bataya tha , aur maine bhi wahi kiya..unpe hansi aur chali gayi-

“ek baat puchhun..?” maine kaha
“jee”
“kabhi mili fir wo ..”
“nahi”
“fir??”
“muhabbat to maine ki thi, ummeeden unse kyun..” wo muskurate huye bole !
“shikayat to hogi ?”
“thi, jab ye socha tha ki unhe bhi muhabbat hai..” Manu ne kaha

“ pata ha aapko, ek waqt ke baad ye dar jaata raha ki log kya sochenge, log hansenge..bas Muhabbat bachati hai..ummeed bhi nahi..sirf muhabbat..” Mujhe aaj fir Manu pagal lag rahe the

“itna aasan hai kya khud ko barbaad kar lena..?” mere muh se nikal gaya

“jee, bas muhabbat hona aasan nahi hota uske baad sabkuchh aasan hai..”

Wo muskura rahe the aur barso baad meri aankho me aansoo the..unhone jise chaha usake naam zindagi kar di aur maine jis se chaaha usake saath chaar kadam bhi nahi chal paayi...shayad isiliye mujhe muhabbat mili nahi ..mera dard pighal raha tha ….ek din main kisi ki muhabbat pe hansi thi, aur aaj meri muhabbat mujhpe hans rahi thi.
