Chapter - 21
Raat ke waqt Noor kitchen mein sone se pehle bartan dhone mein vyast thi. Main apne bistar par baitha, shaam ki ghatna ke khayalon mein khoya hua tha. Mujhe apne upar gussa aa raha tha ki meri wajah se unka maza kharab ho gaya. Main bistar par Noor ka intezaar kar raha tha. Kuch der baad Noor kamre mein aayi. Maine usse pucha, "Kaafi thaki hui lag rahi ho, Noor?" Usne halki si muskaan ke saath kaha, "Haan, Rizwan ke abbu, aaj garmi bhi bahut thi. Kitchen mein toh haalat kharab ho gayi." Maine uski baat sun kar sir hila diya aur kaha, "Chalo, sone chalte hain. AC thodi aur tez kar lo." Usne jawab diya, "Ji, Rizwan ke abbu," aur AC ka remote utha liya. Main doosri taraf muh mod kar sone ki nautanki karne laga. Kuch pal baad Noor bistar par aayi, meri peeth se peeth lagakar doosri taraf muh karke phone par apne aashiq se chat karne lagi. Main kuch der aise hi pada raha, phir sochne laga ki aakhir kaise main un dono ki madad kar sakta hoon. "Ye ammi-abbu ke rehte kuch kar pana namumkin sa hai," maine socha, aur isi soch mein dooba nind ki aagosh mein chala gaya.

Agle din subah main thodi der se utha. Noor kitchen mein khana bana rahi thi, aur main office ke liye tayyar hone laga. Khaana kha kar maine sabko alvida kaha aur office ke liye nikal gaya. Raste mein mujhe kal ki call yaad aayi. Maine apni bike raste mein rok di aur us kameene Hira ko phone milaya.
"Hello," maine kaha.
"Hello, bhadwe! Kyun phone milaya?" Hira ne roodhapan se jawab diya.
"Woh kal ke liye sorry, yaar. Meri wajah se tum meri biwi ko chod nahi paaye," maine kaha.
"Bhaak, saale! Kaam hai to bol, warna phone kaat," usne gusse mein kaha.
"Arre, main keh raha tha, agar aaj use chodna chahte ho to main kuch intezaam karta hoon. Bol, kya socha hai?" maine prastaav rakha.
"Teri biwi bahut high maintenance hai, saale. Kal kitne nakhre kar rahi thi park mein, dekha na tune?" Hira ne tana maara.
"Haan, yaar, dekha. Use tujhe aur saath dena chahiye," maine kaha.
"Bilkul, lekin saali chhinal bilkul chhui-mui hai, haha!" usne haskar kaha.
"Tu mujhse 2000 le le, aur le ja use kisi OYO ya hotel mein. Kya kehte ho?" maine kaha.
"Tu 2000 dega aur apni biwi bhi chudwayega? Haha!" Hira zor se hasa.
"Bilkul. Tu bol, le aaun?" maine kaha.
"Jaldi se lao use. Main teesre pillar wale theke ke paas hoon. Aaj tere paise ki daaru peekar teri biwi ko chodunga," usne mazaak udate hue kaha.
"Jo karna hai karo, aakhir maal hai tera," maine jawab diya.
"Woh to hai, bhadwe!" usne kaha.
"Ek baat bata, kya tujhe usse sach mein pyar hai?" maine pucha.
"Haha, saale, woh meri setting hai, koi biwi nahi, haha!" usne haskar kaha aur phone kaat diya.
Main tezi se muskura raha tha, bike start ki, aur agle plan ke baare mein sochne laga.
---
Maine turant Noor ko phone lagaya, chehre par ek kamini muskaan ke saath. Kuch pal mein Noor ne phone uthaya.
"Hello, Noor," maine kaha.
"Hello, Rizwan ke abbu. Kahiye, kya hua? Office pahunch gaye?" usne pucha.
"Nahi, Noor. Main abhi aa raha hoon. Tum ready raho," maine jawab diya.
"Kya hua, Rizwan ke abbu? Achanak yeh sab?" usne hairani se pucha.
"Main baad mein samjhaunga. Tum bas ready raho. Main 5 minute mein aa raha hoon," maine kaha.
"Accha, Rizwan ke abbu," usne dheere se kaha.
Maine phone kaat diya aur ek bahana sochne laga. Phir mere chehre par ek shararati muskaan fail gayi. Maine bike start ki aur seedha ghar ki taraf nikal gaya. Kuch hi palon mein main flat ke neeche khada tha. Mujhe aata dekh, Noor neeche aane lagi. Usne kaala burqa pehna hua tha. Maine ishaare se use peeche baithne ko kaha aur bike chalu kar di. Noor ke chehre par asmanjas saaf dikh raha tha, woh is baat se bekhabar thi ki main use apne aashiq se milane le ja raha hoon. "Rizwan ke abbu, kahan chalna hai? Ammi bhi puch rahi thi. Aapne bataya hi nahi," Noor ne sawal kiya. Maine dheere se uski taraf dekha aur kaha, "Kuch nahi, Noor. Market mein maine kuch samaan liya tha, use lene jana hai. Bas 5-10 minute ka kaam hai." Usne asmanjas mein meri taraf dekhte hue pucha, "Kya mujhe jana zaroori hai, Rizwan ke abbu?" Maine jawab diya, "Haan, agar tumhe pasand nahi aaya to wapas kar denge. Curtains hain zyadatar." Usne sir haan mein hila diya, aur hum dono bike se bazaar ki taraf nikal gaye. Kuch der mein hum pillar number 3 ke neeche khade the, jahan se woh desi daaru ka theka saaf dikh raha tha. Main muskura diya aur phone uthane ki acting karne laga. Phir maine nautanki ki ki dukaan aaj kisi wajah se band hai, aur apna sir pakad liya. "Arre yaar, mujhe pehle puch lena chahiye tha. Office ke liye bhi late ho raha hoon," maine kaha. Noor bhi thodi mayoos dikhne lagi. "Rizwan ke abbu, pehle pata kar lena tha na. Ab kya karein?" usne pucha. Main kuch der sochta hua dikha, phir use wahin utarne ko kaha. Maine uske haath mein 2000 rupaye thama diye aur phone par ammi ko call lagaya.
"Hello, ammi," maine kaha.
"Hello, babu. Achanak bahu ko le kahan nikal gaye? Kuch zaroori kaam tha? Kitchen abhi ganda hi hai," ammi ne pucha.
"Haan, ammi. Curtains ke colour choose karne the. Thodi der lagegi, shayad shaam bhi ho jaye," maine jawab diya.
"Accha, theek hai. Lekin jaldi aane ki koshish karna," ammi boli.
"Ji, ammi," maine kaha aur phone kaat diya.
Maine Noor ki taraf dekha aur kaha, "Noor, tum kuch der yahan wait kar sakti ho? Main nikal raha hoon, lekin tum yahin ruko. Agar 10-15 minute mein dukaan nahi khuli to ghar ke liye auto kar lena." Meri baatein sun Noor aisa chehra bana rahi thi jaise main pagalpan ki baatein kar raha hoon. "Rizwan ke abbu, aaj karna zaroori hai kya? Kal bhi to kar sakte hain. Chalein na, mujhe ghar chhod dein," usne kaha. Maine uski baat suni aur nazarandaaz kar diya. "Koshish karte hain, Noor. Agar aaj ho jaya to sahi hoga," maine kaha. Usne haraat ke saath kaha, "Okay, Rizwan ke abbu."

Maine Noor ko wahin chhodkar bike aage badha di. Uske haath mein 500 ke chaar note the. Thodi door jaakar maine us kameene Hira ko phone milaya.
"Aa gayi teri maal, teesre pillar ke paas hi hai," maine izzat se kaha.
"Paise ka kya hua, bhadwe?" Hira ne pucha.
"Woh maine teri setting ko thama diya hai. Nikalwa lena," maine jawab diya.
"Accha, saale! Mujhe dene ki jagah use pakadwa diya, taaki woh mujhe de hi na?" usne tana maara.
"Arre, kyun nahi degi woh tujhe? Tu uska boyfriend hai na. Aur zyada nakhre kare to kaan ke neeche raseed de dena," maine haskar kaha.
"Haha, ekdum harami hai tu, saale!" Hira ne zor se hasa.
"Tujhse hi sikha hai yeh to," maine mazaak mein kaha.
"Accha, kab tak hai mauka mere paas?" usne pucha.
"Arre, pura din hai tere paas enjoy karne ke liye. Bas use daaru mat pilana, warna gharwalon ko shak ho jayega," maine samjhaaya.
"Theek hai, bhadwe. Chal, main ja raha hoon usse milne. Aur aaj pura din hai to main use OYO nahi, apne room pe le jaunga," Hira ne khushi se kaha.
"Arre, jahan le jana hai, le ja. Bas shaam 5 baje se pehle ghar pahuncha dena," maine kaha.
"Theek hai, be. Waise, saale, tere AC wale kamre mein zyada maza aata hai," usne mazaak udaya.
"Ghar mein possible nahi hai, yaar," maine kaha.
"Haan, haan, tere ammi-abbu," usne tana maara aur phone kaat diya.

Maine aakh ke kone se dekha to wo harami kuch pal ke baad hi Noor ke paas aaya aur Noor uske bike pe baith gayi aur main khusi se jhoom utha, mujhe acche se pata tha aaj din bhar kya hone wala tha.
Raat ke waqt Noor kitchen mein sone se pehle bartan dhone mein vyast thi. Main apne bistar par baitha, shaam ki ghatna ke khayalon mein khoya hua tha.
