Chugga namak is update ki suruat aapne wahi se ki jis par pichale update me kisi ka dhyan hi nahi gya tha aur mene wo baat uthayi bhi thi ki punjab me jaggi hi arjun ka network he jo use waha ki aur ass pass ki jankari deta he. Aaj to jaggi ki information ne kayi dhamake kiye. Jaha unhone chote dada ji krishaneshwar ji ke jawani me thoda bigdail hone ki baat batayi jiske bare me unki ma ko pata chala to unhone chote dada ji ko fir kabhi jameen se bahar hi nahi jane diya. Wahi chote dada ji ka beta Vinod Sharma bhi ghatiya kisam ka insaan nikla aur usake bade jija ghag aur chote jija dabbu. Ab ye sab kis adhar par kaha jaggi ne ye to pata nahi lekin usaki information 100 % correct he isaka aswasan jarur diya. Dusari jankari jo jaggi ne sarang ki di wo bhi kam dhamake wali nahi thi aur usase judi kuch information idhar inder aur gajju ke pass bhi he. Ab dekhna ye he ki idhar ki information jisaki jankari sanjeev ko bhi he plus lohan ke dwara di gayi information aur arjun ke dwara ikathi ki gayi jankari kaun si kahani likhti he.Update 143
Chugga (1)
Us bade park ke bahar he car sahi se lagate hue Arjun andar chala aaya. Jagtar samay ka paband insaan tha aur wo pehle he intjaar karta mila. Track pajama aur tshirt ke sath mehnge sports wale joote pehne wo abhi halka paseene me bheega Arjun ki taraf badh chala.
"Toh time nikal he liya tumne? Atcha kiya bhai, main bhi bas abhi running se free hua hu.", Dono ne hath milaye aur Jagtar vriksh ki chhaya me rakhe lohe ke bench par Arjun ke sath baith gaya.
"Aapko itna pareshan karne ke liye sorry bhaiya. Bas ye jaankari mere liye bahot jaruri hai. Aap 3 baje bhi bulate toh main us waqt bhi aa jata.", Arjun ke gambhir chehre ko dekh Jagtar halke se muskura diya. Saamne tehalte hue logo par ek najar daalte hue apni baat shuru ki.
"Jaisa tumne phone par bataya tha maine wo sab toh pata karwa liya hai bhai lekin uske sath he extra bhi pata laga hai. Samajh ye nahi aa raha ki ye sab tum mujhse behtar juta sakte the agar apne ghar ya waha gaanv me khud baat karte."
"Mumkin nahi hai bhaiya aur main kabhi pushtaini gaanv nahi gaya hu. Jaane ki ijajat bhi nahi milti aur ye naam main unke saamne le bhi nahi sakta. Khud he sochiye ki itihaas kaise puchu jab unhone khud he kuch na bataya ho?", Ab Arjun ki baat Jagtar ke samajh aa chuki thi.
"Sahi kehte ho yar tum. Waise maine bhi ye sab khud nahi kiya jaisa tumne sujhaya tha. Har jaankari alag alag source se jutaai aur kuch kaagaj jutaane me thodi jyada he dikkat aayi thi lekin table ke niche se wo bhi nikalwa he liye tehsil se. Meri car me rakhi hai wo file aur jo kagaj me nahi hai wo main ab tumhe khud bata deta hu.", Arjun ne ek najar us zen car ko dekha jo park ke us taraf Jagtar ke ghar ke saamne he khadi thi aur fir sar hila kar sehmati jata di.
"Swargiya Motilal Sharma ji yaani tumhare padd-dada ji diwan-e-khaas bhi the Raja sahab ke aur munshi bhi. Unke charitra par kabhi koyi daag nahi aaya poore jiwankal me lekin ek ghatna pata lagi hai ke unke bade bete yaani ki tumhare dada ji pehle fauj me the aur waha jarur kuch hua tha jis wajah se Raja sahab ne he unhe fauj se wapis bulwa liya tha Munshi ji ke aagrah par. Ek saal baad wo police me shamil ho gaye.", Arjun ye fauj wali baat nahi jaanta tha.
"Aapka source sateek hai na bhai?"
"100 pratishat Arjun. Kaam ki baat toh ye hai ki tumhare dusre dada ji bilkul alag charitra ke the aur jawani ke kuch saal unhone shaahi taqat ka poora raub dikhaya tha apne dosto ke sath mil kar. Ye baat unke aream me utni faili nahi thi kyonki idhar apne pita ke anushasan ka bhaye tha. Jis vyakti Sarang ka tumne jikar kiya tha wo bhi kuch samay tak Krishneshwar Sharma ka ajeej raha hai aur Sarang ki asliyat jaante ho?", Jagtar ke is sawaal par hairat me baitha Arjun naa me gardan hila gaya.
"Raja sahab ki teesri biwi ka sabse bada beta tha Kumar Sarang jo baad me Sarang Kumar ho gaya. Rajasthan ke ek shahi gharane se thi unki maa aur baad me rajpaat ko le kar kuch khincha-taani hone par Sarang apne nanihal chala gaya jaha ki saari vasiyat usko mil gayi thi. 18-19 saal pehle he wo aakhiri baar is raj-gharane me aaya tha, kuch kaam se aur phir kabhi uska jikar yaha nahi hua. Baaki details file me he hain, araam se padh lena."
"Ye Krishneshwar dada ji ke baare me toh maine aisa kuch kabhi nahi suna. Bauji toh batate hai wo bade he sadharan se aur mehanati vyakti hai."
"Bhai, shaadi ke baad atche atche mehanat karne lagte hai. Waise uski bhi ek wajah pata lagi hai ki unke baare me unki mata ji ko kuch khatka hua tha aur uske baad wo kabhi apni jameen se bahar nahi gaye. Ab andar ki baat nahi pata ki kya hua hoga kya nahi. Waise tum toh yar jara bhi rajwade wale nahi lagte, sharir asadharan hai lekin Diwan-e-khaas ke pariwar ka ladka aur koyi tadak-bhadak nahi?", Jagtar bas taang kheench raha tha Arjun ki lekin Arjun ne saralta se jawaab diya.
"Mere dada ji ne saari zindagi police ki naukri ki hai bhaiya aur wo bhi ek behtar pehchaan banate hue. Mera papa sarkari doctor hai aur unki apni pehchan hai. Jab unhone he kabhi jikar nahi kiya ya wo pehchaan nahi dikhai toh main toh phir bhi unki teesri peedhi hu. Waise bhi mujhe toh hamesha jarurat se jyada he milta raha hai isliye santusht hu."
"Yar tum toh sachmuch he gambhir insaan ho. Waise tumhare chhote dada ka beta bada harami aur ayyash aadmi hai, agar tum nahi jaante toh bata deta hu. Vinod Sharma bataya tha na tumne?"
"Haan wo 3 bhai behno me sabse chhote hai lekin unhe bhi maine ek he baar dekha hai takriban 10 saal pehle. Unki kya jaankari mili hai?"
"Hotel Blue aur Country Farm ka maalik hai ye Vinod Sharma, takriban 36-37 saal ka hai. Shaadi ke 5 saal baad abhi kuch mahine pehle he baap bana hai. Juari bhi hai aur randibaji bhi karta hai. Bura matt maan na bhai lekin wahi bol raha hu jo sach hai.", Ek pal ke liye Jagtar ruka toh Arjun ne aage bolne ka ishara diya.
"Chinta matt kijiye, mujhe bas sab jaankari leni hai. Aur bataye unke sath sath dono badi behno ke baare me."
"Haan wo jameen ka vyapaar apne bade jija ke sath karta hai, ye agle he shehar me jaha se gaanv bhi kuch 20 kilometer he hoga. Jija ka naam sahi se nahi pata kuch PP Sharma karke hai aur Roshni Sharma jo, Vinod Sharma ki badi behan hai wo pehle toh sarkari teacher thi lekin ab kuch nahi karti. Vinod Sharma ki dusri behan ka pati Country Farm me sanjhedar hai. Raman Sharma naam hai uska aur biwi Damini ek housewife hai. Ye sab jaankari tumhe araam se apne ghar se he mil jaati kisi na kisi se. Lekin inka charitra shayad waha bhi batane wala koyi na hoga. PP Sharma gaagh vyakti hai aur ye Raman thoda dabbu kism ka. ", Arjun bade gor se apne he pariwar ke un sadasyo ki jaankari le raha tha jo unke yaha kabhi aate jaate nahi the.
"Sahi kehte ho ki inke baare me khaas baatein mujhe waha bhi pata nahi chalti.", Ab dono he uth kar park ke kinare kinare bani patri par chalte hue baatein karne lage. Paune 7 bajte he Arjun ne jaane ki ijajat li aur file ko car ke dasboard me sambhal kar rakhte hue wo waha se wapis nikal chala. Aaj usko bahot kuch pata chala tha aur Jagtar ne sachmuch bahot bada kaam kar dikhaya tha Arjun ke liye. Aisi gupt jaankariyan nikalna saral toh katai nahi tha lekin Jagtar ne ek khaas dost aur chhota bhai maante hue Arjun ke liye wo sab kiya. Badle me Arjun ne bhi aisa he kuch khaas kaam Jagtar ke liye kiya tha jo Jagtar ki zindagi sanvarne wala tha. Aise he dono ke beech ek majboot dosti ki neev shuru ho chuki thi.
.

"Ye tamancha khaas hai aur kaafi purana bhi. Jitna main samajh raha hu ye aise he kisi ke pas nahi ho sakta aur upar se ye is par ki gayi ye nakkashi batati hai ki iska sahi maalik toh koyi rutbe wala vyakti he hoga. Fingerprint toh utarwa liye hai aur nali ki jaanch report thodi der tak yahi aa jayegi.", Sangwan ji ke sath sirf Inder aur Umed he the is bade kaksh me subah ke 7 baje. Yaha aaye unhe 2 ghante ho chuke the aur is beech kuch khaas logo se bahot si baatein ho chuki thi.
"Ye khanjar bhi waisa sa he hai chacha ji. Iske baare me kya vichar hai aapke?", Narinder ne wo 8-9 inch lambe phal wala khanjar plastic sudha Sangwan ji ki taraf badhaya toh unhone gardan haan me hila di.
"Ispe jehar laga hua tha, jaisa lab-assistant ne bataya. Finger print iske bhi aa jayenge lekin dekhne wali baat ye hai ki itne khaas aur beshkimati hathiyaar aise kyu sahej kar rakhe gaye the. Rivolver german hai 1949 me bani aur ye khanjar bejod hai, kisi hunarmand vyakti ki kalakari ka khaas namuna. Waise ye dhibhri wala sikka jo hai aisa he kuch is ladke ke gale me bhi hai.", Sangwan ji ne tasvir ko lens ke niche karte hue dono ko dikhaya toh Umed ab gehri soch me padd gaya.
"Bas report aa jaye chacha ji, phir hum pata lagane ki koshish karte hai ki ye mudda kya hai.", Umed aur Narinder ne bahot kuch chhipa liya tha Sangwan ji se. Wo yaha bas in hathiyaro aur tasvir ke sath aaye the. Dhaage me bandha sikka khud Narinder ne jeb se nikal kar unhe dikhaya tha.
"Agar kuch jaruri kaam hai toh tum log wo kar sakte ho. Ye dono cheej sath le jao main report jaanch kar khud tumhe jaankari de dunga."
"Thik baat hai chacha ji. Waise bhi ab mujhe ghar jana hoga aur Umed ko bhi hajri lagaye aaj teesra din hone wala hai. Araam se baat karte hai is maamle me aur ho sake toh Shankar ya papa tak baat na jaaye.", Narinder ke aagrah ko unhone bhi swikaar kar liya. Dono log samaan us chhote se thaile me daal kar bahar nikal chale. Abhi jaise unke mann me bahot kuch chal raha tha. Lift se niche aate he Umed bina car chalu kiye aankhen band karke gehri saans lene laga.
"Inder ye maamla kahi galat disha me na chala jaaye bhai.", Chehre par daadhi kuch jyada he badh gayi thi Umed ke aur Narinder ke bhi saaf chehre par maheen baal bata rahe the ki 3-4 din se uska bhi dhyaan kahi aur nahi gaya hai.
"Ab jo hoga dekha jayega yar lekin kaam poora karke he rukna hai is baar toh. Waise jaan kar ajeeb nahi laga ki Chandarbhan aur Karam Singh judwa the? Shakal toh milti nahi thi saalo ki aur ye goad bhi gaya toh apne mama ke. Damyanti agar zinda hai toh usko dhoondna jaruri hai Gajju aur ab pakadna hoga Laajo kaaki ko. Chhinaal sagi behan hai wo Damyanti ki aur Ishwar kaka ke sath dusra byaah tha uska.", Narinder ke sawaal sunn kar Umed ne aankhen kholi aur ek ghoont paani se garare karte hue bahar fenk diya.
"Chandarbhan us tasvir me Munni ko he pel raha tha na? Aur Laajo kaaki ko bhi. Behanchod ho kya raha hai ye. Ab Bhole ke saamne ye tasvir gayi toh wo bangdu Munni ko toh maarega he khud ko bhi kuch kar baithega. Chandar sala sagi mausi aur behan ko he chod raha tha aur ye tasvir kisne nikale honge?"
"Lagta hai ye kuch bada he jhol hai Gajju. Madhulata se puchtach karne par jawaab hoga ki chandar usko blackmail kar raha tha kyonki Laajo ko dekh kar toh yahi lagta hai ke wo ye sab maje me kar rahi hai toh pata Madhulata ko bhi hoga. Phir wo kameeni yahi baat Shankar ko batayegi aur mahadev kaha phir kisi ki sunenge. Madhulata ko agwa kar sakte hai kya?", Narinder ne jis tarah se ye sawaal kiya tha Umed sakpaka gaya.
"Bawli-tared ho gaya kya bhai tu? Chandro taai ki haveli me ab kuch nahi karna aur agwa he karna hai toh shaadi ke baad dekhte hai. Lekin uske baad toh usko jaan se maarna padega be. Na na aisa kuch nahi karna. Yaha Arjun ko shamil kar kyonki wahi haveli me Munni ki khabar le sakta hai. Ab jara us folder me mile jameen ke kaagaz par aaja. Kumar Sarang ne jameen ke badle jameen di thi. Matlab ki Damyanti ka uske sath alag sambandh tha."
"Rakhail bhi keh sakte hai aur ye jameen wala mamla dhyaan bhatkane wala bhi. Us kaagaj ke hisab se Damyanti yaha jab aayi toh ye bache ho chuke the aur wo vidhwa thi. Laajo kaaki ka pehla pati jo Ishwar kaka ka bada bhai tha wo udhar Punjab se isko byaah kar laya tha. Dusre saal me maut hui aur chhote bhai Ishwar Singh ke sath Laajo ka dusra byaah kar diya gaya. Kuch missing hai yar aur agar wo kadi mil jaaye toh ye sulajh sakti hai.", Narinder ka bhi sar chakrane laga tha ye mayajal samajhte samajhte aur baat ghoom-fir kar wahi atak rahi thi.
"Dusri tarah se soch jara. Bindu aur Munni ka byaah ek he khaandan me hua wo bhi eksath. Waha aakhiri baar Damyanti najar aayi thi aur Sarang bhi maujud tha, tu aur Shankar nadarad the. Ye mujhe bhi Ajju ne he bataya tha jo phere bhi dekh kar aaya tha isliye yaad hai mujhe. Ab Ajju jaha maara gaya waha Shillu ne aurat dekhi thi aur Shillu ko mara Chandar ne. Ajju ke sharir par vaar karna itna asaan kaam nahi tha aur 10-12 laashe jab gira di ho toh bilkul bhi kisi me himmat nahi hogi aise insaan ke kareeb jaane ki.", Yaha ye dono he Lohan ke varnan se anjaan the. Par Narinder bhi Umed ki tarah he sochne laga.
"Tu kehna kya chahta hai Gajju? Tujhe lagta hai ke uski maut me Damyanti ka haath hai?"
"Wo khanjar se jab nishaan utaare gaye the toh mera dil ke raha tha aisi nakkashi wali cheej kisi rutbe wali aurat ke he pas ho sakti hai, aatmraksha ke liye. Ajju kabhi aurat par hath nahi utha sakta tha aur is baat ko harek insaan jaanta tha ki uske liye har aurat ijjat-balidan ka roop hai. Aisa mera dil keh raha hai bhai ki ho sakta hai us khanjar se he Ajju ko jakhmi kiya gaya ho.", Umed ka mann bechain ho chala tha itni baar apne bhai ko yaad karte hue. Kuch aisa he haal Narinder ka bhi tha.
"Chal yaha se chalte hai Gajju. Hum dono ko he araam ki sakht jarurat hai filhal. Daleep us ladke se jaankari lene ke baad bata he dega aur us makeup box ko araam se dekhenge.", Umed ko bhi ye baat thik lagi. Car ab Pandit ji ke ghar ki taraf chal padi, Narinder ko utarne ke liye.

Arjun pichle aadhe ghante se phone par he laga tha aur dono behne Resham Singh ji ke ghar gayi hui thi. Ghar aate he ye fainsla hua tha ki nashte ke baad wo sabhi ghar wapis niklenge. Aarti-Alka ke jaate he Arjun ne phone ghuma diya tha. Ek number par takriban 10 minute tak baat karne ke baad ab wo Sanjiv bhaiya se guftgu karne laga. Is taraf se jaise Arjun he bol raha tha aur dusri taraf Sanjiv araam se jaankari leta raha. Ghadi me paune 8 ka waqt dekhte he Arjun ne kuch bol kar phone rakha aur ghar ko durust karne jutt gaya.
Bahar se mukhya supply band karne ke baad sabhi taale lagaye aur mukhya dwar par bada tala bhi latka diya. Pados wale ghar ki ghanti baja kar wo intjaar he kar raha tha aur Gurdeep ko sath liye dono behne bahar chali aayi.
"Humko nikalna hoga 10 baje se pehle.", Arjun ke sankshipt se swar par Aarti ne ek nigha ghar par daali aur Gurdeep se gale mil kar car ki taraf chali aayi. Alka bhi hans kar Gurdeep se mili aur sab ko car me baithne ke baad jaate dekhti rahi. Ricki pehli manjil ki chhatt par khada bade dhyaan se sab dekh raha tha jab tak Alka car me na baith gayi.
"Poora ghanta laga diya aap logo ne toh Gurdeep ke yaha.", Arjun ne ye baat aise he kahi thi lekin Aarti hansne lagi.
"Aunty ji aane he nahi de rahi thi. Waise baaki cards maine uncle ko de diye hai jo wo aaj he pahucha denge.", Aarti ki baat sunn kar Arjun ne aage koyi sawaal na kiya. Kuch he der me unki car ab Hussain sahab ke ghar ke bahar khadi thi. Arjun ne card aur mithai ka dibba nikalne ke baad atche se gaadi ko lock kiya aur dono behno ke sath unke gate ke saamne aa khada hua. Ghanti ki awaaj sunte he ye raubdar shaksh sehan ka darwaja khol kar is taraf chale aaye. Takriban 6 feet lambai aur fakk safed kurta pajama pehne hue ye adhed umar ke vyakti ki rangat bhi gulabi thi.
"Namastey uncle ji. Shukar hai aaj toh aap ghar pe he hai.", Unke chehre par bhi bacho ko dekh khushi chhayi thi. Aarti ke sar par hath rakh kar aashirwad dene ke baad unhone Alka ko bhi sneh se andar aamantrit kiya. Arjun ne charan sparsh karne chaahe toh inhone uski baah thaam li.
"Beta, itna bhi bujurg matt karo aur aapse paanv padva kar dojakh me jana hai kya. Masha-allaah, Shankar-Narinder bhai se bhi 21 ho beta. Allah tumhe lambi umar aur shohrat de. Aao, isko apna he ghar samjho.", Arjun ke sath unka andaaj bharpoor samman aur pyaar wala tha. Arjun sadhe kadmo se unke sath bheetar chala aaya jaha baithak me 2 aur log baithe the, inki he umar ke takriban.
"Bilal bhai, aap hai Arjun Sharma apne Shankar bhai ke bete aur Arjun beta ye hamare chhote bhai hai. Janaab Mushtaq sahab hamare saale hai aur sath he vyapar dekhte hai.", Unhone Arjun ka parichaya karwaha toh nimantran partra aur mithai Hussain sahab ko dete hue Arjun ne dono ko he hath jodd kar namaskar kiya. Mushtaq Afsana Zubeida ke mama aur Bilal chacha the. Bilal ne khushi jahir ki wahi Mushtaq ke chehre par sirf aupcharikta dikhi. Arjun wahi ek sofe par baith gaya lekin thoda bechain tha in sabhi anjaan vyaktiyo me.
"Shankar bhai se hum 3 saal pehle mile the aur aaj tumhe pehli baar dekh rahe hai beta. Kad-kaathi toh pathaan jaisi hai bilkul. Kaam-dhanda karte ho ya sirf pehalwani.", Ye Bilal ne poocha tha aur andar se chehra dhake ye mahila tray me sharbat liye khamoshi se aayi aur table par tray rakh kar waise he chali gayi.
"Ji filhal toh padhai karta hu aur thoda bahot boxing ke sath kasrat bhi. 18 ki umar hai toh business jaisa mumkin nahi kuch.", Arjun ke saral jawaab se Hussain sahab ne sar hilate hue haan kaha jaise unhe Arjun ki jaankari ho.
"Bhai jaan, aisa ladka waha Lucknow me hota toh apni bitiya ka nikaah ek pal me karwa deta. Janaab toh abhi padhne likhne wale hai aur Shankar bhai doctor hai toh waisa he kuch ye bhi banenge. Atcha laga tumhe dekh kar.", Bilal ne apni baat khatam karte hue sharbat ka ek gilas Arjun ko thamaya aur ek apne bade bhai sahab ko. Mushtaq pehle he gilas utha kar pee raha tha.
"Ham-Zulf (jija) sahab, Taarik ke liye aap baat chalaye jara un ladki ke pariwar se jo abhi bheetar gayi thi inke aane se pehle? Apni he kaum ki lagi humko toh aur aftaab hai.", Ye Mushtaq ne jo bhi kaha tha wo Alka ke liye kaha tha aur Arjun ke kuch kehne se pehle he Hussain sahab naraaj ho gaye.
"Mushtaq, humne ye bahot baar kaha hai ke insaan ki kadar karna seekho aur pehle pehchaan karna bhi. Bitiya inki badi behan hai, gar yahi baat Narinder bhai ke saamne jubaan se nikli hoti toh jubaan jameen par halaal milti. Bilal inhe bahir le chalo, hum apna purse aur samaan liye aate hai. Begam ke walad sahab ne nikamma yaha bhej diya aur Hasnat jaise heere ko apne pas rakh liya.", Hussain sahab ke gusse me bhi ek alag he andaaj tha. Awaaj buland kiye bina he wo Mushtaq ko tagdi jhaad laga gaye the. Arjun unke jaane ke baad Mushtaq ko gor se dekhne laga toh jhempte hue wo bol he utha.
"Maaf karna hume maloom nahi tha ke wo aapki bahin hai."
"Maafi najro me hoti hai uncle, yaha sirf majboori dikh rahi hai.", Arjun bhi sofe se khada ho kar jaane he laga tha aur peeche se aate Hussain sahab ne kandhe par hath rakh diya.
"Beta, narajgi jaane do aur aap andar sabke sath baith kar nashta farmao. Hamare saale ki kahi baat ka humko dukh hai lekin aap is baat ko tavajjo mat de.", Arjun pal me he thanda ho gaya tha.
"Nahi uncle main gussa nahi hu aur aapne toh mere saamne he unhe daant diya jis par unhe bhi bura laga hoga. Galti ho jaati hai anjaane me."
"Kaam se jana nahi hota toh jarur sath he nashta farmate. Aapke ghar he milenge shaadi ki davat par. Shankar bhai aur Pandit ji ko hamara salaam dena.", Jaate hue Hussain sahab ne ek bar Arjun ko gale se lagaya aur dua dete hue bahar apni gaadi me baith kar nikal gaye. Unke jaate he baithak me Zubeidaa aa khadi hui.
"Tum toh yar bade khatarnak insaan ho. Hamare he ghar me hamare maamu ko he dapat diya? Maja aaya waise.", Hansti hui ye gadrai aadhunika bhi kamaal he thi. Poore ghar me jaise ek yahi thi jo befikar rehti thi. Yaha bhi wo Arjun ka hath pakadte hue khilkhila rahi thi. Gore bhare bhare gaal aur bina laali ke bhi surkh hontho wali muskaan se Arjun bhi muskurane laga.
"Kaisi hai aap?"
"Tumhare saamne he hu aur ab andar chalo, ammi raah dekh rahi hai ke kab chaand nikle aur kab nashta naseeb ho.", Zubeidaa ki aisi bindaas baatein sunn kar Arjun bhi sharma raha tha. Aur wo aise he hath pakde is andar wale hall me chali aayi. Ye mahila thodi hairani se Zubeida ko dekh rahi thi lekin aunty ji ne bade pyaar se Arjun ko swagat karte hue apne kareeb he diwan par baitha liya.
"Shukar hai tum milne aaye yaha. Humne toh socha tha kahi pichli bar is Zubeidaa ki wajah se naraaj na ho gaye ho.", Unki aisi baaton par Arjun jaha khush hua wahi Zubeidaa mooh bichka kar nakhra dikhane lagi. Aaj Zubeidaa bhi salwar kameej me he thi lekin dupatta nadarad hone se sharir ka har ubhaar qayamat najar kara raha tha.
"Main ab kis baat se naraaj hota hai aunty ji? Didi bahot atchi hai aur pichli baar inse mil kar bada atcha laga tha. Is baar aap hamare ghar aane wali hai wo bhi har function attend karna padega.", Arjun ko in aunty ka dulaar bhi atcha laga tha. Ek maryadit pariwar jaha pabandiyo ka dhakosala tak na tha. Soch bhi sabse mil jul kar rehne wali.
"Hum toh jarur aayenge bas ye Zubeidaa he aise shaadi-byaah ke mahol se dur rehti hai. Afsa ke abbu toh bahot khush the jab khud Afsa ne unhe bataya ki wo 7 din pehle he apni saheliyo ke sath tumhare yaha jaane wali hai. Krishna behan ke sath tumhari ammi bhi waha hongi toh hume bhi pareshani nahi. Bache aaj duniya dekhenge tabhi toh kal apne fainsle lene layak honge."
"Ammi, main toh jarur jaa rahi hu, phir aap chahe ghutne ka bahana karke ruk jana. Aur mehmaan ko nashta parosna padta hai, baaton se inki bhookh kaha mitegi?", Zubeidaa ke tanj par aunty bhi muskurane lagi. Zubeidaa apni ammi ke khade hote he Arjun ke bagal aa baithi.
"Mister, tum na bade he chaploos kism ke insaan ho jo hamari ammi ke khaas bane ja rahe ho. Waise ye jo hume taad rahi hai na ye hamari maami hai, Rukhsar begam.", Zubeidaa ne toh mooh par he us mahila ki firki le li thi. Jhempti hui Rukhsar begam bhi apni Nanad ke piche rasoi me chal di. Jaate he unke mooh se besakhta nikal gaya.
"Aapne dekha nahi kya kaise apni Zubi gair-mard ka haath thaame be-hayaai kar rahi hai? Aap ammi hai unki, tokna toh banta hai ke kam-as-kam seene par dupatta he lele. Ladka gar pasand hai toh rishta chalaye ya biradari me baat toh kahe, aise he khule-aam toh galat ha na baaji.", Rukhsar ki awaaj dheemi thi aur Zubeidaa ki ammi bas hanse ja rahi thi.
"Tum jaanti bhi ho wo hamare bete jaisa hai Rukhsar aur bache atcha bura samajhte hai. Behan-bhai ke beech biradari kaha aate hai? Chana-paneer garam karo, hum sevaniyaa dekhte hai. Afsana ke kamre me pehle teeno bachiyon ka nashta lagwao, Arjun unke baad he khayega jaisa Alka ne kaha.", Rukhsar toh bechari ab aage bol bhi na saki. Wahi bahar Zubeidaa aaj alag andaaj me he thi, chitrakaar wale roop se bilkul alag.
"Toh aaj break liya hai aapne painting se?", Arjun badi tehjeeb se baitha tha beshak Zubeida uske sath araam se baatein kar rahi thi.
"Mood na ho toh hum bister se nahi uthte phir painting ke liye toh mahol, araam aur dimag shaant hona chahiye. Waise he abbu ke aane ke baad mahol nahi milta."
"Uncle toh bade sahi lage mujhe, wo toh support he karte honge aapko.", Arjun ki najar kaan me pehni un chamakti baaliyon se hoti hui tarashi hui bohon aur aankhon par ja ruki toh usko unme alag he aks dikhne laga. Yaha bhi jaise Zubeidaa ki alag he kahani dikh rahi thi. Zubeidaa ke bhi chehre par muskaan aa gayi Arjun dwara aise dekhne par. Chehre ke saamne hath karke wo bolne lagi toh Arjun ne chehra ghumaya.
"Abbu se toh hamesha pyaar he mila hai. Ye jo hamare maamu hai, inhe khoj-been ki jyada buri aadat hai. Har bar kuch aisa ho jata hai jis se mood kharaab. 2 saal se rishtey la rahe hai, jaane unhe he hamari mehar milni ho nikaah me. Waise bhi itna chalta hai, hafte me 2 din break mil jata hai toh Afsana ki khinchai karke maja le leti hu.", Is jikar par Arjun toh thoda asehaj he ho gaya.
"Waise tum chaploos hone ke sath sath bande thode tedhe bhi ho. Najre kuch jyada he beqaabu hai janaab ki.", Kaha toh Arjun soch kar aaya tha ki aaj wo Zubeidaa se jab baat karega toh Komal didi ke samjhane wale hisab se khud un par haavi hoga, yaha ye alag he avtaar tha jo uska bura haal kiye ja raha tha.
"Woo.. aisa kuch nahi hai. Bus compare kar raha tha ke last time aap kaisi dikh rahi thi aur aaj bilkul alag."
"Matlab ab hume ghoorne ke sath besharmi se milaan bhi karoge kal-parso wala? Hadd hai yar tumhari toh aur itna saaf bol kar toh thode deeth bhi jaan padte ho.", Arjun ab jo bhi bol raha tha Zubeidaa uski jyada marrammat karne lagi.
"Sorry. Aisa toh bilkul nahi socha tha maine.", Arjun ke chehre ki gambhirta aur jhijhak dekh Zubeidaa peit par hath rakhte hansne lagi.
"Yaar tum na Afsa se bhi gaye gujre ho. Matlab main maje le rahi hu aur saamne se tum diye jaa rahe ho. Buddhu kahi ke, tumhe dosto ki sakht jarurat hai. Hahaha.. uff.. hans hans ke dukhne laga.", Ab jaise he Zubeidaa hansti hui thoda aage jhuki wo buri tarah kasa seena Arjun ke najro ke saamne aa gaya. Dono motte ubhar aapas me judne par kahi jyada he dikhne lage kameej gale se. Halak sookhne laga tha is drishya par aur Arjun ne najar hataai toh Zubeidaa ko bhi samajh aa gaya tha ke yaha kya hua hai. Chehre par laali aur sharam chaa gayi thi. Is baar Arjun ne dekha toh Zubeidaa dusri taraf dekhte hue diwan ki chadar kuredne lagi.
"Ekdum se itna khamosh kaise ho gaye tum dono? Lo beta tum shuru karo, main Zubi ka bhi lagati hu.", Aunty ji bahar chali aayi aur nashte ke roop me dher sara khana Arjun ke samne paros diya. Arjun unki baat sunn kar Zubeida ki taraf dekhte hue bol pada.
"Wo didi dikha rahi thi.. mera matlab bata rahi thi ki dost kitne jaruri hai aur aapas me kuch bhi chipana nahi chahiye. Phir baat beech me bhool gayi.", Ab Zubeidaa hontho ko mooh ke andar karti Arjun ko aise dekh rahi thi jaise keh rahi ho, 'Bachu tu dekh teri kya halat karti hu.'
"Is se jara ye pucho beta ke kitni saheliya hongi iski. Ek bhi nahi aur hamari shehjaadi naseehat dosti ki sikha rahi hai. Allaah kuch akal bakshe is bhatke insaan ko.", Aunty ji ne alag he taang kheench di thi jaate jaate. Unke nikalte he Zubeida kuch kehti Arjun he bola pada.
"Chaliye sath me he khaate hai agar iske peeche koyi alag kanoon na ho toh."
"Tum naa maukaparast ho aur hamari he ammi ke saamne kya bakwas farma rahe the? Waise sath khaane me koyi burai nahi hai lekin ye dono plate tum yaha hamare beech me rakho.", Ab Zebeidaa plate uthane ke liye jhukne se bhi bach rahi thi aur Arjun is baat hanste hue dono plate beech me rakhta unhe dekhne laga.
"Khamosh raho."
"Main bola he kaha hu. Aap thik toh hai na?", Arjun abhi bhi hans raha tha aur phir Zubeidaa bhi thoda sehaj ho kar muskurane lagi.
"Tum sachmuch khatarnaak insaan ho aur ye final statement hai meri tumhare liye. Waise agar tumne ye sath khana khaane wali baat Afsana ko kahi hoti toh maja aata.", Ek niwala chana paneer ke sath laga kar khaate hue Zubeidaa ne araam se ye kaha toh Arjun ka dhyaan gaya ke wo teeno he yaha nahi thi. Idhar aunty ji ne dono ko he ek sath khaate dekha toh bina kuch kahe waha beech me rayte aur senvaiyon ki katori Zubeida ke liye rakhi aur garam poodi liye andar wale kamre ki taraf chal di.
"Kyo aisa kya ho jata?"
"Ruko abhi dikhati hu. Afsana-Afsana jara suno toh ek baar.", Zubeidaa ne thodi unchi awaaj me kaha toh Afsana us kamre se jhaank kar bahar dekhne lagi. Phir seene aur sar pe dupatta karti wo idhar chali aayi toh najro se he Arjun ko salaam kiya aur apni badi behan ki taraf dekhne lagi.
"Ji baaji, kahiye."
"Arjun bula raha tha tumhe. Hum toh sirf senvaiyaan khaa rahe hai isliye tum inke sath nashte me sath do."
"Hum hamari plate liye aate hai idhar agar aap kehti hai toh.", Badi masoomiyat se Afsana ne aisa kaha tha aur wo Arjun ko dekhne se katra rahi thi is waqt.
"Koyi jarurat nahi hai. Arjun koyi gair hai jo alag plate lagaye, sath he khaa lo yaha baith kar.", Itna sunte he Afsana ke aankhen badi ho gayi. Mooh par hath rakhti wo thoda hairani se Zubeidaa ko dekhne lagi.
"Tauba. Kais baatein karti hai baaji aap? Ye pehchaan ke hai lekin rishta nahi hai. Maaf kijiye.", Afsana ke aisa kehte he Arjun khana beech me rok kar he hansne laga aur Zubeidaa bhi khilkhilane lagi. Afsana stabdh se ab Arjun ko bhi dekh rahi thi ki yaha ho kya raha hai.
"Sorry.. sorry.. Aapko bura laga toh sorry bas Zubeidaa didi mujhe aapki reaction dikhane wali thi.", Arjun chup hone ki koshish karta fir hansne laga tha aur ab Afsana ke chehre par bhi sharam aa chuki thi. Alka thik kehti thi ki Zubeidaa baaji uske maje leti hai.
"Sorry Afsa darling. Aisa hai na hum dono he sath khaa rahe hai toh isne pooch liya ki aise khaane me problem toh nahi. Bas humne unhe bula liya jinhe problem hoti hai. Umaah.. Jao kar lo apna nashta apne band kamre me.", Afsana itna sunn kar thoda himmat se bolne lagi.
"Hum Aarti Alka ko bhi idhar bula lete hai.", Aur ab Zubeidaa Arjun ko dekh kar haan me sar hila rahi thi.
"Madam thoda thoda khud chalne lagi hai. Atchi baat hai nahi toh pehle itni baat kahi hoti toh abhi aansu najar aa jate. Waise savere tum he drop karke gaye the na?", Arjun baat sunte hue dekh raha tha ki Zubeidaa uski he chammach ka prayog karti hui uski he katori se senvaiyaa kha rahi thi. Jis par Zubeidaa ka dhyaan gaya toh wo aankhen hilati hui dekhne lagi.
"Ha.. haan wo main jaldi nikal raha tha aur inhe bhi ghar wapis aana tha toh lete hue aaya. Waise aap meri he chammach use kar rahi hai."
"Steel ki chammach hai wo bhi hamare ghar ki. Aisa kaho ke hum dono ek he chammach se khaa rahe hai. Dosto me itna toh chalta he hai. Waise dekho jara ab Afsana ke aur maje kaise leti hu.", Idhar Afsana ke sath Aarti Alka bhi plate uthaye chali aayi aur teeno he table par plate rakhti sofe par baith gayi.
"Afsu, aaj ghar pe tumhe chhodne Aarti aayi thi?", Ye sawaal sunn kar Aarti ne seedha he naa bol diya aur Afsana bagle jhaankne lagi.
"Wo hum pichli seat par baith kar aaye the baaji. Barabar nahi baithe."
"Oh meri gudiya tum sachmuch he bahot kachi ho.", Zubeidaa ke sath is baar Alka bhi hansne lagi thi.
"Kaha tha na maine tumhe ki Zubeidaa didi taang khinchti hai aur tum serious leti ho ye sab. Majaak kar rahi hai toh tumhe bhi sath dena chahiye.", Alka ke aisa kehne par Afsana ne bade he dhime se kaha.
"Hum majaak nahi kar sakte. Baaji badi hai wo kar sakti hai."
"Hey bhagwan. Yar Afsana tum toh sachmuch he mom ho. Har waqt bematlab pighalti rehti ho. Zubeidaa didi, isko banao thoda apne jaisa.", Aarti ne bhi ab Afsana ko tokte hue apne baat kahi. Lekin Afsana ne jab Zubeidaa aur Arjun ko ek he chammach bari bari se prayog karte dekha toh wo bas unhe he dekhne lagi.
"21vi sadi hai ye mohtarma aur Arjun hamara dost. Janti hu kya dekh rahi ho lekin tumhe toh ek plate me tabhi khana hai jab rishta ho. Bhai samajh kar bhi toh khaa sakti thi.", Zubeidaa alag he teer chalati thi aur yaha Arjun ki jagah ab Afsana nishane par aa gayi.
"Hum inhe bhai kaise bana le baaji? Aarti ke chhote bhai hai ye aur hamari dosti hai Aarti ke sath.", Apni baat par he Afsana fans chuki thi aur Alka khana chhod kar hansne lagi. Arjun ko thaska laga toh Zubeidaa ne hanste hue paani ka gilas uski taraf kiya.
"Arre bacho, nashta toh araam se karo. Phir hans bol lena.", Aunty garam poodiyan sabki plate me rakhne lagi toh Afsana ko khamosh dekh Zubeidaa ki taraf dekhne lagi.
"Ammi.. aapki ye ladli Arjun ko bhai bhi nahi keh rahi aur dost bhi nahi maan rahi. Batao ab iska kya kare? Car me Arjun ke sath toh aayi lekin pichli seat par baith kar. Hahaha.. Oooii.. maa.. bas.. aur nahi khana ab.", Zubeidaa ne naa kar di aur uski baat sunn kar Aunty ji ne bhi hanste hue sar pe chapat laga di.
"Meri gudiya nadaan hai tumhare jaisi hansod nahi jo kuch bhi bolti rehti hai. Afsana bitiya, tum dil par matt liya karo kisi baat ko. Sab hansi-majaak he kar rahe hai toh shamil hua karo."
"Ammi, hum naraaj nahi hai. Wo baaji ki baat samajh nahi aayi thi. Waise hum Arjun se bade hai na?", Afsana ke aisa kehne par Aunty ji ke chehre par ek pyaari si muskaan aa gayi thi. Beti ke sar ko sehlate hue unhone kaha.
"Hum-umar ho sabhi hamare liye toh. Ye Zubeidaa bhi tumse chhoti he hai, dekhti nahi har waqt kaise masti karti rehti. Arjun beta, sabji ya senvaiyaan chahiye ho toh bol dena. Aur jitni yaha rakhi hai wo lajmi khatam honi chahiye."
"Aunty ji, mere toh khatam ho gayi aur peit bhi bhar gaya. Ye Zubeidaa didi ki jo keh rahi thi ki unhe khana pasand nahi aaya. Jyada teil aur ghee dala hai aapne.", Afsana ye baat bhi hairat se sunn rahi thi.
"Aap baaji par iljaam laga rahe hai? Inhone toh aisa kuch bhi nahi kaha hamare saamne aur ammi baaji barbar inke sath he khaa rahi thi.", Ab Zubeidaa Arjun ke hath par taali deti hui hansne lagi thi aur aunty ji ne sar pe hath rakh liya.
"Tum sachmuch bahot bholi ho beti. Arjun Zubeidaa se majaak kar raha tha aur tumne baat apne upar le kar khud ko fir se sabit kar dia. Dekho Zubeidaa ko jara.", Aunty hansti hui rasoighar me chali gayi toh is baar Arjun he bol utha.
"Aapke yaha aise galat iljaam lagane ki saja kya hoti hai? Pata hota toh aisi gustakhi nahi karte.", Arjun ke aisa kehte he Alka ne hanste hue Afsana ko apne sath laga liya.
"Pata chala ke sabke sath rehne par kitna maja aata hai. Dekho khana bhi ho gaya aur hajam bhi. Zubeidaa didi, thoda tayaar karke bhejna jara Afsana ko, waha aap jaise he hai sab jo mauka nahi chhodte."
"2 din sambhal lena meri behan ko tum log. Phir mere aane ke baad mil kar madam ki class lagayenge.", Ye baat chal he rahi thi ki Arjun hath dhone ke liye uth khada hua. Afsana abhi bhi Alka ke sath lagi hui sharma rahi thi.
"Bete washbasin is taraf hai.", Aunty ne saaf toliya dete hue Arjun ko jagah dikhai aur Zubeidaa bhi thoda aage he bartan dhone ki jagah par plate rakhne lagi. Is baar phir wahi manoram gubbare dabte hue bahar nikle aur Arjun ki najar anyaas he waha padd gai. Turant Arjun ne dhyaan chalte paani par laga liya. Zubeidaa bhi hath dhone kareeb aayi toh chehre par fir se laali thi.
"Ab meri koyi galti nahi thi.", Arjun itna keh kar ek tarah hat kar toliye se hath paunchne laga.
"Meri galti thi matlab? Najre rokna seekho janaab."
"Rokta toh jyada bura lagta aapko aur aisa karna bhi galat hai toh hata li.", Arjun itna bol kar wapis chal diya.
"Bade he unche darje ke dheeth ho, kasam se.", Hansti hui Zubeidaa bhi wapis aa gayi thi aur ab Arjun ne jaane ki ijajat maangi toh Afsana aur Zubeidaa uske he dekhne lagi. Aunty ji ne thodi der rukne ka kaha lekin safar ki baat samajhte hue unhone koyi zidd nahi ki. Lekin abhi bhi Afsana chori chori Arjun ko dekh rahi thi, chehre par thodi pareshani thi jo Alka he bhaanp saki par wo bhi kuch boli nahi.
"Atcha aunty ji samay se aap sabhi log pahuch jarur jana.", Aarti ne gale milte hue kaha aur Alka ko bhi aunty ne aise he sneh diya. Arjun aashirwad le kar chalne laga toh Zubeidaa ne hath thaam liya.
"Janaab hum phone karenge aane se pehle, khatir dari me kami hui toh saja milegi."
"Aapka jara bhi kasht nahi hoga, iska poora khayaal rakhenge.", Arjun ne ye kehte hue ek baar Afsana ko bhi dekh lia. Zubeidaa aur aunty ji Arjun ke sath he bahar chal diye aur Afsana Aarti-Alka ke sath unke peeche. Ab kahi wo safed billi Arjun ko najar aayi thi bahar aangan me aate he. Uchalti hui wo Zubeidaa ki goad me aa chadhi. Darwaje se bahar aate he Arjun ne Alka-Aarti ke liye car ke darwaje khole aur dekhne laga.
"Jald milte hai Afsana. Chalne se pehle phone kar dena ya jab shehar me entry karo toh PCO se bata dena. Koyi na koyi lene aa he jayega.", Hath milane ke baad Aarti aur Alka car me baithi aur unke baad Arjun bhi steering wali seat par aa gaya. Is baar usne Afsana ko hath hila kar bye kiya tha, Aunty aur Zubeidaa ke palatne par. Afsana ke chehre par bhi ek hansi aa gayi thi.

Emergency case aane ki wajah se Shankar ji ki duty bhi samay se pehel shuru ho gayi thi. Bhuppi ke yaha se 5 baje wapis apne ghar aane ke baad nashta karte he wo 7 baje sarkari hospital ke operation theatre me ek gambhir halat me laaye gaye vyakti ki silaai me jutt gaye the. Ye ek naujawaan yuvak tha jo badi machine ki chapet me aane se marnasan haalat me idhar laya gaya tha. 3 bottle khoon chadhane ke sath sath poore sharir par takriban sava so taanke lagaye gaye the. 3 ghante baad Shankar ji bahar nikle toh wo yuvak ab khatre se bahar tha aur filhal kritrim roop se oxygen lagayi gayi thi. (9 May 1998, Shaniwar)
"Doctor sahab, aapne hamare zindagi ka sahar bacha liya. Aap hamare liye sakshat bhagwan ho doctor sahab. Hum gareeb logo ke pas toh apne bete ko bachane ke liye footi kaudi na thi lekin aapne jaan bachane ke sath ye paise ka bojh bhi hum par aane na diya. Main zindagi bhar gulami karne ko tayar hu aapki.", Ye kareeb 50 saal ka behaal sa vyakti apne bete ki jaan bachne par Shankar ji ke paanv me he lipat gaya. Aankhon se aansuon ki nadiyaan beh rahi thi aur vyaktitva se he maloom chalta tha is gareeb ki dayniya haalat ka.
"Dekho bhai tumhara beta isliye bach gaya kyonki tum samay se usko yaha le aaye. Maine sirf apna kaam kiya hai aur rahi baat paise ki toh wo main kafan ke sath toh upar leke jaa nahi sakta. Tum nishchint raho aur yaha uski dekhbhal ke liye uchit log hai. Is waqt tumhe apni dharampatni ke sath hona chahiye. Aage ilaaj ke kharche ki bhi matt sochna.", Shankar ji ne us vyakti ko dono baaju se pakad kar upar uthate hue samjhaya. Phir wahi pas me lagi 4 kursiyon me se ek par baithate hue ek nurse ko apne pas bula liya.
"Sister, inki details bhar lo aur patient ke care-taker me mera naam mention kar dena. Aur haan, inke liye canteen se chai nashta jarur mangwa dena. Ab aap himmat rakhiye aur nashte ke baad apne ghar chale jana, bete ki maa ko bhi fikar hogi. Chalta hu.", Shankar ji ke itna karne par ab us vyakti ke pas badle me kehne ko kuch bhi shesh na bacha tha. Apne khoon se sane angoche ko dono hatho me thame wo hath jodd kar bas bheegi aankhon se unka abhaar jatata raha. Shankar ji kandha thapthapate hue apne cabin me chale gaye.
"Uncle ji, ye hamare senior doctor hai Shankar ji aur inse kaabil surgeon toh yaha koyi nahi hai. Sabse badi baat hai ki sir khud he ab aap ke ladke ki jimmewari lenge toh ghabrane ki jarurat nahi. Chai pijiye aap, main abhi kisi ke hath nashta bhijwati hu. Sath wale kamre me baith kar pehle kuch kha lijiye.", Nurse ne chai pakdane ke sath he Shankar ji ki poori jaankari de di.
"Doctorni ji wo sahab toh hamare liye bhagwan ka he avtaar hai. Aapka bhi bahot dhanyawad lekin nashte ki jarurat nahi. Iski maa ko lene jaa he raha hu toh ghar pe he kar lunga. Waise bhi koyi itcha nahi hai.", Aadmi ne hath jodd kar mana kiya toh nurse ne aage dabaav nahi diya. Wahi Shankar ji ke cabin me Sangwan pehle he intjaar karta mila.
"Yar Shankar teri toh chutti thi aaj ki. Aur ye sunn ne me aaya ke jiska abhi tu ilaaj kar raha tha uska sara kharcha tu khud utha raha hai?", Yaha bhi chai ki chuskiya chal rahi thi.
"Chacha ke 10 hospital se mahine ka 30 lakh milta hai mujhe. Ek lakh kisi gareeb ki jaan bachane me kaam aa jaye toh kya nuksaan hai bhai? Waise wo bhi toh dasva hissa logo ke muft ilaaj me he lagate hai. Ye toh dasva hissa bhi nahi. Waise tu yaha kyu gaand marwane aa gaya chhuti ke din? Meri toh chal haajri CMO ne lagwa rakhi hai agle Shanivar aur Eitwar ki bhi.", Shankar ke aisa kehne par Param ne ajeeb sa chehra banate hue kaha.
"Ghar me saans na li jaati jabse Ruchi aayi hai. Main toh raat bhi bahar seedhi laga ke seedha upar gaya tha lugaai ke kamre me. Savere baapu 4 baje kisi ke phone se bahar nikalan lage toh jaate hue meri supari bhi dete gaye. Saare dhakke khaane ke baad tere ghar gaya toh pata laga sahab yaha hai. Waise thode bahot kaam toh tu atche karta hai Shankar, shakal dekh ki ni lagta lekin aadmi ek number hai.", Param maje le raha tha aur Shankar hans raha tha uske sath.
"Wo sab chhod aur ye bata ke Inder aur Umed abhi bhi tere farmhouse par he hai kya? Meri toh baat he nahi unse. Kal kuch jyada he over ho gaya tha main aur 8-9 ghante soya he raha Bhuppi ke ghar. Maa gussa kar rahi thi savere jab Inder ko mere sath nahi dekha toh.", Shankar ki apne chhote bhai ke liye parwah hamesha se he thi aur aaj toh jhaad bhi atchi khaasi mili thi apni maa se kyonki Narinder 2 din me ghar raha he kitna tha.
"Wo toh ghar pe he tha abhi jab main tujhse milne gaya tha udhar. Bahar aangan me he taai ji (Kaushalya ji) uske sar ki maalish kar rahi thi aur tau ji ke sath wo Shashtri ji bhi Inder se baatein kar rahe the hans hans ke. Mujhe toh kahi se na taai ji gusse me dikhi. Waise tu thoda ghar raha kar abhi jitne shaadi ka kaam hai. Abhi market chalega?", Param ne sara vritaant keh sunaya aur market jaane ka poocha toh jaise Shankar ko kuch aur bhi yaad aa gaya.
"Yar aaj mujhe Richa ko lene jana hai aur ye 11 baje jaruri operation bhi hai. Aur raat ko ghar nahi raha toh maa is baar maaf nahi karne wali.", Shankar ne apni sthiti bataai toh Sangwan bhi kuch sochne laga. Kuch pal baad usne he raaye di.
"Operation dono mil kar karte hai aur uske baad main Richa ko le aata hu agar tujhe theek lage toh. Nahi toh tu aana jana kar sakta hai, jyada time matt rukna."
"Lata aise toh wapis aane nahi degi aur 2 baje niklunga toh 7-8 baje se pehle wapis aane se raha. Tu lene gaya toh Richa toh aa he jayegi par uski maa ne mera jeena haraam kar dena hai. Aur aaj toh maine abhi tak usko phone bhi nahi kiya."
"Tu har roj phone karta hai Lata ko abhi tak?", Ab thoda Sangwan ke chehre par aashcharya ke bhaav the.
"Savere 9 baje se pehle aur shaam ko jab duty se wapis jaane lagta hu toh karta he hu. Ab itna bhi nahi karunga toh usko bura lagega. Pehli he bechari ki zindagi me kuch bacha nahi hai aur ab main bhi dur rehne lagu toh dil toot nahi jayega? Bahot parwah aur pyaar karti hai bhai wo bas halaat ki maari hai aur main chaah kar bhi usko wo khushiyan nahi de pa raha jo uska haq hai.", Shankar ki itni pyaar bhari darshnik baatein sunte he Sangwan ke chehre par ghor narajgi chha gayi.
"Chutiya hai be tu toh wo bhi chaman chutiya. Kaunsa haq be aur insaan apni haalat ka jimmewar khud hota hai na ki ye samaaj. Bhosdike najar na aata ke teri ab 3 betiyan aur ke beta hai Rekha bhabhi se? Unko tune lund haq diya jo tere naam ka sindhoor lagane ke bawjood teri andekhi ka shikar hai 23 saalo se. Dekh Shankar, tu aur main college ke pehle din se sath hai aur ek dusre ke harek raaj-samasyaye saanjhi hai. Tu mujhe Anni ki ehmiyat samjha sakta hai lekin apni biwi ke astitva ko khud nahi maanta.", Ant me Sangwan ne he apni awaaj neeche karte hue Shankar ko wahi samjhaya jo usne Sangwan ko kaha tha.
"Rekha ke pas poora pariwar hai bhai aur maine har jarurat poori ki hai uski lekin Lata mera pyaar hai jiski badtar haalat ka jimmewar aadha main bhi hu. Shaadi mujhse nahi hui lekin jiske sath hui usko maine he khatam kar diya. Antarman pe hamesha se yahi bojh hai ke sabki najar me toh maine he apni chahat ke liye usko vidhwa bana diya. Ab tu mujhe chutiya samajhta hai ya gaandu lekin sach yahi hai ke main he kasoorwar hu Lata ki zindagi ko narak banane ke liye. Bas isliye jo thodi bahot khushiyan main usko de sakta hu wo un par uska poora haq hai. Rekha bade ghar se hai aur yaha pariwar me bhi ek tarah se maa ne usko he sabkuch saunp rakha hai. Dekha jaaye toh Rekha sabse jyada sukhi hai jo har taraf uska khayal rakhne wale log hai."
"Sahi kehta hai bhai tu ki wo sukhi mahila hai. Itni sukhi hai ki wo sawaal he nahi karti kabhi. Main koyi doodh ka dhula insaan nahi hu Shankar lekin ek baar jara ye soch ki agar aurat ko pati-sukh na mile toh uski halat kya hogi? Agar aurat sanskaro me bandhi rahe toh wo samay se pehle he marr jaati hai avsaad, mansik kasht aur jaane kitni he jatil bimariyon se. Avsaad grast dukhi mann ek dheema zehar hai dost aur jitne log bhabhi ke aas-pas hai wo unhe tere wali khushi nahi de sakte. Waise mujhe toh lagta hai ab der ho chuki hai kyonki itni lambi andekhi ke baad bhabhi tujhse pyaar nahi kar paayengi. Waise bhi aap jaise Harishchandra ne toh pehli raat he unhe bata diya tha ke wo ghar ki bahu hai aur tera pyaar koi aur. Chal operation ki tayaari karte hai aur tujhe jaisa thik lage kar. Rekha bhabhi ka kuch ho nahi sakta kyonki tu toh ujde sansaar me hariyali lagane me vyast hai itne saalo se.", Aaj Sangwan ka mann buri tarah vyathit ho gaya tha. Uski bua ji ki maut avsaad se hui thi aur kaaran tha fufa ki ayaashi aur patni ki andekhi. Shankar maloom nahi tha ki aaj he Sangwan ki bua ki barsi hai aur wo ghar pe isliye he nahi ruk saka tha. Kuch der baad dono he dost bina jyada khinch-taan ke apne kaam par lag chuke the.

Arjun dopahar ko 1 baje se kuch pehle he wapis ghar pahuch chuka tha. Sara samaan Sanjiv bhaiya aur apni behno ki madad se car se nikal kar andar pahuchane ke baad apni chachi ki bagal me he leit kar araam karne laga toh Narinder chacha bhi idhar chale aaye. Kamre me ab Priyanka Komal samaan sahi kar rahi thi aur Sanjiv bhaiya bhi kursi par baithe the.
"Toh apni chachi maa ka khajana le he aaye aur wo bhi jaise harek cheej. Safar kaisa raha?", Narinder ji dekh rahe the ki unki biwi bade pyaar se Arjun ka sar sehla rahi thi aur wo bhi purn araam ki sthiti me tha.
"Nahi chacha ji, koyi dikkat nahi aayi aur gaanv wale raste se jyana toh safar ka pata bhi nahi chala. Waise mera dil tha aapki motorcycle bhi leke aane ka, shaadi ke baad jarur le aaunga.", Arjun ki baat sunn kar Narinder ji bhi muskura diye. Unhe bhi apni yamaha badi pasand thi.
"Jab dil kare le aana yar. Wo tumhari he hai ab kyonki mujhe toh ye Bullet pasand aa gayi hai.", Wo jaise Arjun ke maje le rahe the aisa kehte hue.
"Mujhe toh ab na motorcycle chaiye na car. Cycle thik hai apne liye aur baaki kahi jana ho toh aap aur bhaiya hain he.", Ab Sanjiv bhi apne bhai ki baat par hans raha tha jaise usko pata tha ki Arjun chacha se fansne wala nahi.
"Yar mujhe bhi kabhi apne sath shehar ghumane le chal tum dono. Na Sanjiv kahi leke jata hai aur na tum. Aur tum dono aapas me he lage rehte ho. Itna boodha bhi nahi hu, dost toh bana he sakte ho.", Narinder chacha ki baat Arjun samajh raha tha aur jaise usne bhaiya ko aankho se he ishara kiya.
"Lunch ke baad chalte hai chacha ji. Aapko aaj library leke chalte hai aur uske baad main ghar he rahunga ya jyada se jyada stadium.", Arjun jaise aaj apne chacha se bahot kuch sanjha karna chahta tha. Aur apni maa ki awaaj se turant uth khada hua jo usko dhoondti hui andar he chali aayi.
"Beta kapde badal lo aur khana ban chuka hai aap sab bhi dining table par aa jao. Aaj devar ji ki pasand ka he bana sabkuch.", Arjun ne apni maa ke hath se kapde lete hue unka gaal chooma aur bathroom chala gaya. Wahi Sanjiv bhi apni jagah se uth kar bahar chala aaya hath mooh dhone.
"Bhabhi, khushbu aa gayi thi bharva bhindi ki. Ek aap he ho jo ye sabji bana deti ho mere liye, warna maa ne toh hath he khade kar rakhe hai aur hamari begam sahiba toh bhindi tabhi banayngi jab main khud kaat ke du. Sath me aur kya banaya hai bhabhi.?", Narinder ke chehre par ek bache jaise khushi ki bhaav the aur Rekha ji bhi thoda khush thi is waqt.
"Rekha ne aapke liye pyaaj wale karele, kaali daal, aalu wala raita aur kheer bhi banai hai. 2 ghante se lagi hui hai ye rasoi me akeli aur aapki ye laadli betiyan toh kapde-samaan dekhte he unme kho gayi. Rekha, savere ka jimma abse Komal ke sath mera rahega. Koyi teen paanch nahi bas.", Krishna ji bister se uth kar apne kapde vyavasthit karti hui thodi narajgi se boli jis par Rekha ji apne devar ko dekhne lagi.
"Kuch din jaise bhabhi kehti hai waise raho Krishna. Kaam karne se koyi mana nahi kar raha lekin abhi bheed-bhaad wala samay rahega toh tum bagiche me Arjun ke sath mehnat karo ya shaam ko park me tehalne chali jaya karo. Garmi ka samya hai jisme tumhe thoda bachaav rakhna hai aur bhabhi tumhari chhoti behan hone ke sath sath jethani bhi hai. Har waqt jidd nahi karni. Chalo aaj sath me he khana khaate hai.", Ab Krishna ji narajgi se Rekha ko dekh rahi thi jo muskura rahi thi lekin Krishna ji ke bhi chehre par ekake muskaan aa he gayi.
"Ye devar-bhabhi ki saajish main samajhti hu. Rekha tu mil jara akele me fir dekhti hu tujhe atche se. Badi aayi jethani aur aap bhi ye bhabhi ke pallu se bandhe rehte ho na, mera beta batayega aapko. Haan keh deti hu.", Jameen par kadam rakhne se pehle he Narinder ji ne wo naram chappalo ki jodi apni biwi ke charno ke niche rakh di.
"Bhaagwan tumhare bete ka toh mukabla hamare pita ji bhi nahi kar sakte phir hum kis khet ki kaddu hai. Chalo ab khana khaate hai phir gaa lena apni raam-katha bhabhi ke sath.", Hanste muskurate hue Narinder ji apni biwi sang bahar chale aaye jaha Sanjiv pehle he baitha tha. Chehre par kuch soch thi jo Arjun ke barabar aate he dhoomil ho gayi.
"Kya irada hai chhote?"
"Bhaiya chacha ko jaankari saunp dete hai."
"Kisi haal me nahi bhai. Tu bas waise he ishare deta reh aur hum dono he chalte hai tere thikane par. Teri file ke badle mere pas bhi poori file hai Karam Singh ke ghar mile samaan ki. Wo Krishneshwar dada ji par he gola bana tha.", Sanjiv aur Arjun ki ye baatchit apne he andaaj me ho rahi thi aur Narinder ji rasoi me apna khana khud daal rahe the jab sab unki pasand ka bana tha.
"Thik hai toh pehal chacha ji ko he karne dete hai. Agar inhone kuch bataya toh bas aap apne hisab se dekhna. Waise chhote dada ji ki jaankari apne thaanedar sahab ko bhi poori nahi hai.", Arjun ab khamosh ho gaya tha jab Narinder ji idhar chale aaye aur Krishna ji Madhuri ke sath baaki sabke liye khana parosne lagi. Aaj ka din Arjun ke liye jyada he vyast rehne wala tha. Sanjiv aur Arjun ki baaton se itna toh pata chal chuka tha ki ye dono he baaki sabko chugga chugwa rahe hai aur chawal ke daane dikhane se pehle khud he chakh kar aage diye ja rahe hai.
Idhar afshana ke ghar par agar usake abbu ne apne sale ko danta nahi hota to aaj wo arjun ke hato mar jarur khata. Khair us ek ghatna ke baad waha ka mahol lagbhag sansaar jaisa hi tha. Jaha hasi majak ke tahake gunjatw hi rehte he. Iname sabse age thi zubaida didi. Wo jaha ek taraf arjun ki taang khich rahi thi wahi arjun dwara apne gubare dekhe jane par sharma bhi rahi thi. Aur fir tunak kar javab bhi de rahi thi. Fir inlogo ne afshana ki khichayi suru ki jis par afshana ne apne bhole pan se hi sabko jawab diya.
Idhar inder aur gajju chacha ji ne bhi kayi dhamake kiye jaise chander aur karma ke judwa hone ka raz khul gya aur laajwani damayanti aur sarang ki paheli khadi ho gayi.
