Kashmir ki waadiyan fir se saans lene lagi thi. Fiza bhi gungunane lagi thi, ki naukari lagte hi meri pehli posting Srianagar ho gyi. Dil khush ho utha. Zindagi ki shuruaat itni khoobsurat hogi, kabhi socha na tha. Srinagar mei badh ke bad janjeevan kaafi samany dikhayi de rha tha.Shaam ko Dal jheel ke kinare tehlna, jheel mei tairte houseboat, foolon se lade shikara ko niharna kisi sapne se kam na tha. Usi dauran kuch dino ke liye mujhe Pehalgam jaakar wha ka kaam sambhalne ka aadesh mila. Mai agli subah hi nikal pada. Teen ghante ka safar wadiyon ki khoobsurati ke beech kab nikal gya, malum hi nhi chala.
Dusre din se shaam ko guest house ke asmne behati Lidhar nadi ki ithlati, athkheliya karti jaldhara ke paas baithna mere dinbahr ke kaam ki thakan mitane ke liye kafi tha. Isi tarah ek hafta kab nikala, iska pata hi na chala. Us din shaam ko anayaas hi kuch ladkiyon ki taraf dhyaan chala gya. Anayaas q kahu! Asal mei unmei se ek ladki chalte chalte mujhe hi dekhe ja rhi thi. Isi wajah se wh baki ladkiyon se piche bhi ho gyi thi. Kisi ladki ke tokne pr wh chaunki aur jaldi se kadam badhakar apne samuh mei shamil hokar pagdandi pr chalti hui aankhon se ojhal ho gyi.
Dusre din bhi wahi samay, wahi samuh, aur wahi ladki fir se taktaki lagakar meri aur dekh rhi thi. "Jenab, jaldi chal na. Rat hone ko h." Kisi ladki ne use aawaz di.
Acha to Jenab nam h iska. Is bar mai use kuch dhyaan se dekh paya tha kl ke mukable. Lambi sutwa naak, dupatte se kaskar bandhe balon ke bandhan se chutkar aaye kaale ghunghrale baal, gora chamakdar chehra, surahidar gardan, charhara sharir, kul milakar 'Kashmir ki kali' hi thi wh. Fir roz ka wahi silsila. Saat din bahut hote h, ab baat kr hi leta hu ki kon h wh? Q aise dekhti h mujhe? Kya chahti h? Mai wahi baitha man mei budbuda rha tha ki wh aa gyi. Jaise hi wo kuch dur gyi aur uski nigaah mujh pr se hati, mai fasla rakhkar un sabke piche chal diya. Ek ek karke sabhi apne apne gharo mei chali gayi, pr wo akeli gumsum zameen ki aur dekhti hui chali ja rhi thi. Shayad uska ghar abhi kuch aur dur tha, yh sochkar tez kadmo se aage badhkar maine uski kalayi pakad li.
"Suno Jenab." apna nam ek ajnabi ke moonh se sunkar wh ghabra gayi. Apni kalayi chudane ki koshish mei wh surkh ho gyi thi.
"Dekho, ghabrao nhi. Mai janta hu, mujhe pta h ki...." mera waky adhura hi rh gya ki wh bol uthi, "kya?" "ki tum meri taraf dekhti ho, rozana pr darti ho khne se ki...." maine jhanbhujh kar is baaar apna waky adhura choda tha.
Usne ghabrahat mei idhar udhar dekha aur fir kha, "Nhi, wo bat nhi h."
"To kya baat h? Btao to sahi, mere paas to aao, koi nhi h yha dekhne wala." maine uski kalayi ko aur dabate hue muskurate hue kha.
Pr ye kya? Uske honth fadfada rhe the, aankhien dabdabane lagi thi.
"Wo mera bhai ...pichle sal Dal jheel mei shikara lekar gya tha .... aaj tk lauta nhi h ....shayad sailaab use bha le gya. Wh bahut kuch tumhare jaisa hi dikhta tha, bas isliye..."aur itna khte hi wh fafakkar ro padi. Mere hath se uski kalayi chut gayi. Mujhe aisa laga ki aaj fir se sailaab aa gya h aur mano mere hath pr bandhi aaj tk ki saari rakhiya resha resha hokar bikhar gyi h aur uske aasuon ke sailaab mei behne lagi h.
