Sanjay ne gouri ko gaanv ke adde par hi utaar diya..," yahan se paidal chali jaao... Log sochenge.. Ijjaat gawa kar aayi hai.." sanjay ne vyangya kasa!
Becyari gouri kya karti... Uska kya maaloom thha ki paar mein interwal nahi hota... Jab bhi hota hai.. Poora hi karna hota hai... Uska chehra utar gaya thha.. Sanjay ne bike aagey badha di... Gouri thhake huye se kadmon se ghar ki aur badh gayi...... Gouri ajeeb kasamakas mein thi.. Sach tha ki wo mann hi mann sanjay ko bahut chahne lagi thi.. Aakhir ladki ko chahiye kya hota hai kisi ladke mein, achchha career, sundar chehra, aur tagda badan. Ye sabhi kuchh usko sanjay mein mil sakta tha. Bahut kum log hote hain jinmein ye sari khoobiyan ek sath mil jayein.. Par Gouri ko ek cheese aur chahiye thi.. Jeewan bhar sath nibhane ka visvas. Wo kahan se lati, visvas kisi ki shakal se nahi tapakta;, sath rahne se, ek dusre ko jaan'ne se aata
hai.. Gouri bhi apne har ang mein siharan mahsoos kar rahi thi, jab sanjay ne usko jagah jagah haath lagaya.. Ek ladke ke hath mein aur khud ke hath mein kitna fark hota hai, ye gouri jaan gayi thhi.. Aur sanjay ke haath ne ab tak uske dimag mein khalbali macha rakhi thhi.. Wah jald se jald sanjay ko jaan lena chahti thi... Taki... Usko haan kar de... Uss par kabza jamane ke liye... Taki usko haan kar de... Apne har ang ko jhakjhorne ke liye..
Jab gouri se ruka na gaya to wo nisha ke ghar ja pahunchi... Kareeb 6 baje sham ko...
Nisha gouri ko dekh kar bhun si gayi," kya baat hai gouri? Aajkal..."
"Kuchh nahi.. Bus ghar par dil nahi lag raha tha... Aur suna.. Kal ke paper ki taiyari kaisi hai?"
Tabhi sanjay apne room se bahar aa gaya.. Usne tirchhi najar se gouri ko dekha.. Gouri ne nejarein jhuka li...
"Chal tu mere kamre mein aa ja!" nisha jitna ho sakta tha, gouri ko sanjay se door rakhna chahti thhi..
"nisha! Main tujhse ek baat bolna chahti hoon...!" gouri ne uska haath pakad kar kaha..
"Kya?" nisha ko gouri ka andaaj kuchh raaj bataney wala sa laga....
"Wo.. Tu kah rahi thhi.. Ki sanjay.... Mujhse pyar karta hai.... Kya ghar wale.. Hamaari shadi ko maan jaayenge?"
"Nahi! Ghar waley to door ki baat hai.. Sanjay hi nahi maanega..!" nisha ki baat sunkar gouri ko sadma sa laga..
"Kyun?"
"Kyun kya! Main apnne bhai ko nahi jaanti kya.. Usne chandigardh bhi ek ladki se chakkar chala rakha hai... Par mujhe pata hai.. Wo shadi to usi se karega....!"
Gouri awaak rah gayi.. Uss'se fir wahan ruka na gaya.. Wo turant apne ghar wapas aa gayi..... Ghar aate aate gouri ka sanjay ke khayalon mein uljhe uljhe bura haal ho gaya thha.. Pahli baar usne kisi ko dil diya tha.. Pahli baar usko kisi ne sharirik aur maansik tour par andar tak chhua tha.. Aur pahli baar mein hi uska dil chhalni ho gaya, na wah sanjay ko dekhti, na sanjay se dil lagati aur na hi aisa hota.. Gouri bathroom mein jakar apne aap ko sheeshe mein dekhne lagi.. Kya wah aisi nahi hai ki sari umar kisi ko apne se bandhsake... Sanjay ko! Kya wo sirf usse khelna chahta thha.. Uske sath jeena nahi.. Aisa kaise ho gaya? Usne to jab bhi dekha,, sanjayki aankhon mein pyar hi dekha thha.. Uske liye.. Ya fir ye mera bhram hai... Khayalon mein khoye khoye hi wo hotel ke kamre mein ja pahunchi.. Kaise sanjay ne uske rom rom ko aahladit kar diya thha.. Kaise sanjay ke honton ne uske honton ko pahli baar mardana garmi ka ahsaas karaya thha.. Pahli baar wo pagal si ho gayi thi.. Jaane kaise wo khud ko kaabu mein kar paayi.. Nahi to sanjay uske dil ke sath uske sareer ko bhi bhog chuka hota...
Gouri ke haath apni jaanghon ke beech wahin pahunch gaye jahan kal sanjay pahunch gaya tha.. Usne apni pattiyon ko waise hi kured kar dekha... Par ab wo maja nahi thha jo pahle aata tha gouri ko," sanjay ne ye ky kar diya... Nahi... Main aisa nahi hone dungi... Main sanjay ko apne paas lekar aaungi.. Jindagi bhar ke liye.. Chahe mujue kuchh bhi karna padey..."
Sochte sochte gouri bahar aayi aur kitaabein uthha li.. Par aaj uss'se padha hi nahi ja raha thha.. Uske dil mein khalipan sa ghar kar gaya.. Shareer mein bhi...
Agle din jab wah exam centre pahunchi to sanjay gate par hi khada tha.. Nisha andar ja chuki thhi..
"Sanjay!" gouri ne uske paas khadi hokar dusri aur dekhte huye usko aawaj lagayi..
"Ab kya rah gaya hai!" sanjay abhi tak us'se naraj thha..
"Main tumse baat karna chahti hoon! Apne baare mein.. Nahi... Hum dono ke baare mein..." gouri ne aa rahi ek ladki ko dekhte huye kaha..
"Bolo!" bahar se sanjay rukha hone ki bharpoor koshish kar raha thha... Par uske dil ki khushi uski aawaj se jhalak uthhi thhi... Wo bhi to hamesha ke liye gouri ko apna bana lena chahta thha...
"abhi nahi! Kal hamare papers khatam ho jayenge... Tum kal raat 11 baje hamaare ghar aana.. Chup chap.. Fir baat karenge.." kahne ke baad gouri ne jwaab ka intzaar nahi kiya... Wo jaan'ti thi.. Sanjay jaroor Aayega...
Sanjay jaati huyi gouri ke kulhon ki lachak ko dekhkar tadap gaya.. Raat ko bulaane ka matlab! .... Apne aap hi matlab nikal kar uski aankhein chamak uthhi...." Bus ab sirf kal ka intzaar hai.. Kal raat 11 baje ka... Disha aur vaani ke do din baad paper khatam hone wale thhe.. Wo uske baad ghar jaane wali thhi... Mahine bhar ke liye.. Yun to unki mummy papa se lagbhag roz hi baat ho jati thi... Par fone par wo laad pyaar kahan thha jo vaani ko aur disha ko ghar par milta thha.. Uski mummy unse baat karte karte kayi baar ro uthhti thi.. Vaani ko ab jald se jald ghar jana thha.. Bus ek baar paper khatam ho jayein.," Didi! Main apni half pant bag mein rakh loon..."
"Na vaani! Gaanv mein buri lagegi..."
"lene do na didi.. Mujhe bahut achchhi lagti hai.. Apni saheliyon ko dikhaaungi..!"
"mujhe padhne de.. Jo marzi kar le, mera dimag mat kha bus.."
"Didi! Main bhi to raat ko padhti hoon.. Tum bhi padh lena. Raat ko hi..." vaani ne gardan neechi karke.. Apni aankhon ko shararti dhang se upar uthha kar disha ko dekhte huye kaha!
"bataaoon kya tujhe?" aur disha ki hansi chhoot gayi.. Vaani ko maaloom tha.. Aaj teesra din tha aur raat ko shamsher disha ko padhne nahi dega... Waise bhi 2 din baad disha shamsher ko akela chhodkar gaanv ja rahi hai...
Vaani ne Disha ko chidaane wala wahi purana tarana chhed diya...," tumhaarey siwa kuchh na..."
