Update 84
Sham ka waqt tha. Zaheer ke ghar ki chhat se dhoop dhalti hui dikh rahi thi. Hawa me thoda thandak aa gayi thi. Drawing room me Azhar sofa par baitha hua tha, ek kitaab khol kar. Tabhi darwaza khula aur Shanu haath me ek chhota packet liye andar aayi.
Azhar ne sir uthaya aur thoda muskuraya.
Azhar
Arre Shanaya beta… tum yaha?
Shanu thoda awkward hansi ke saath boli
Shanu
Woh uncle… actually main Taz ke liye ek assignment print karwa kar laayi hoon. Usne bola tha ghar par printer kharab hai.
Azhar ne packet liya, dekha aur phir sir hila diya.
Azhar
Achha kiya. Taz toh waise bhi apne doston ke bharose kaam chhorte rehta hai. Tum upar jao, ammu asma Zaheer apne kamre me honge.
Shanu halka sa blush karke andar badh gayi. Jaise hi usne Zaheer ka room khola, woh saamne bistar par leta hua headphones lagaye mobile scroll kar raha tha. Shanu ko dekhte hi turant uth kar baith gaya.
Zaheer
Arre madam, aaj kal yeh bhi routine ban gaya hai kya? Ghar pe surprise checking?
Shanu aankhen ghumate hue bed par baith gayi.
Shanu
Tumhare jaisi masti khor ki nazar rakhni padti hai. Kal raat ko bola tha milne aayega… lekin aaye nahi.
Zaheer hans kar uske paas jhuk gaya.
Zaheer
Arre, kal raat thoda busy tha…
Shanu nakhrey se uski baat kaat kar boli
Shanu
Busy? Kya tumhe milne se zyada important bhi koi kaam hai?
Zaheer zara dramatize karte hue haath se dil pe thap thapaya
Zaheer
Woh toh hai… neend. Kyunki agar main fresh na rahu toh tumhari nonstop baaton ko kaun jhelega?
Shanu ne takiye se uske kandhe pe zor ka ek thappad mara. Dono hasi me phir phas gaye.
Shanu
Bas… baat ghumane me tumhara koi jawab nahi.
Zaheer uske kareeb hote hue fuskara
Zaheer
Aur tum baat banane me expert. Mardangi ka wasta de diya kal raat, aur aaj seedha ghar par aayi ho. Yeh kya chakkar hai, madam?
Shanu ne uska haath door karte hue khidki ki taraf dekhte hue nakhre se kaha
Shanu
Chakkar toh tum chalate ho… main toh bas dekhne aayi thi ki tum ghar par ho bhi ya nahi.
Zaheer phir uske paas jaake uska wrist pakad kar usse apni taraf ghuma leta hai.
Zaheer
Main hoon… aur abhi sirf tumhare liye.
Shanu ki hansi nikal gayi aur dono ek dusre ko dekh kar muskura rahe the. Bahar Azhar ki awaz aayi
Azhar
Zaheer, chai ban gayi hai… Shanaya ko bhi bula lena.
Shanu turant door ki taraf bhaagi jaise pakdi gayi ho, aur Zaheer peeche se uski haath hila kar chupke se bolta hai
Zaheer
Chalo, ab baba ko bhi lag raha hai tum ghar ki hi ho.
Shanu ne muh banaya aur muskurate hue niche living ki taraf chali gayi.
Sham ka time tha. Ammu ke room ki light abhi bhi jal rahi thi. Dono sisters jaisi close dost – Ammu aur Shanu – bed par baithe the. Ammu apne hair brush kar rahi thi aur Shanu uske pillows pe ulat-pulati karte hue gossip mode me aa gayi thi.
Ammu
Sach bata shanu, tera or zaheer ka kuch scene hai kya...dekh chhupana mat, bachpan se sath hu tere itna to janti hu ki tere face ke expression kab kaise hote hai
Room me abhi bhi halki halki hansi ki goonj chal rahi thi, lekin ekdum se Shanu chup ho gayi. Uske chehre ka rang badal gaya, jahan abhi abhi mazak chal raha tha, wahan ab thodi si serious si glow aa gayi. Ammu ne brush side me rakha aur uski aankhon me jhank kar bola
Ammu
Kya hua? Abhi tak toh tum full comedy show chala rahi thi.
Shanu ne takiya apne lap me rakha, dono haath uspar rakh liye aur dheere se halki si smile di. Uska heartbeat tez ho gaya tha, jaise words nikalne me bhi uske dil ki dhadkan badh rahi ho.
Shanu
Ammu… ek baat bolun?
Ammu thoda curious hokar uske paas aayi aur haath uske shoulder par rakha
Ammu
Haan, bol na… itni serious kyu ho gayi?
Shanu ne halki si halki saans bhari, aankhen ek second ke liye band ki aur phir dhadkan ke saath jese words phisal gaye
Shanu
Main… main aur Zaheer… hum dono ek dusre ko pasand karte hain.
Ammu ke brush se grip ek second ke liye slip kar gaya. Uske chehre par shock aur phir dheere dheere ek soft smile aa gayi. Uski aankhen thodi badi ho gayi, jaise kuch connect ho gaya ho.
Ammu
Matlab… tu… meri bhabhi?
Shanu ke galle halki si laal ho gaye, usne aankh jhuka li aur takiya ko aur tight hug kiya. Uske hothon pe ek sharmai si hansi thi, aur uska dil itna fast beat kar raha tha ki jaise usse khud apni chest me dard sa mehsoos ho raha ho.
Shanu
Bas… aisa hi samajh le. Kabhi socha bhi nahi tha ki humari dosti me yeh twist aayega.
Ammu ko ekdum hasi aa gayi, usne Shanu ka face apni taraf ghumaya aur zor se hug kar liya.
Ammu
Pagli! Mujhe toh pehle hi lagta tha ki tum dono ke beech kuch chal raha hai. Lekin ab toh soch… tu meri best friend hai aur meri bhabhi bhi.
Shanu ab thoda relax hoke hans padi, lekin uske chehre pe abhi bhi woh guilty si sharmili glow thi.
Ammu ne uski baat kaat di aur haath uske galle pe rakha
Ammu
Secret? Tum toh meri jaan ho… ab toh double relation hai. Dost bhi… aur bhabhi bhi.
Dono ek dusre ko dekh kar hansi rok nahi paayi. Ek pal ko room ki hawa romantic nahi, balki emotional aur dosti wale rishton ki warmth se bhar gayi thi.
Shanu ne takiya chehre pe mara, lambi saans li or ek baar socha ki ab shays ise bata dena chahiye aur aankh ghumate hue boli
Shanu
Haan haan, pasand karti hoon… aur thoda zyada bhi. Lekin yeh mat soch ki tumse secret baatein share karungi.
Ammu ne uske haath pakad liye
Ammu
Arre chal na… bata na. Kaisa feel hota hai jab woh itna paas aata hai?
Shanu ne sharmate hue takiya aur tight pakad liya, aur dheemi aawaz me bola
Shanu
Feel aisa hota hai jaise saans ruk gayi ho… aur kabhi kabhi toh body bhi react kar jati hai bina soche samjhe.
Ammu ne fake shock face banaya aur dono hasi ke bhanwar me chali gayi. Thodi der chup reh kar Ammu ne bhi confession jaisa tone banaya.
Ammu
Mujhe bhi kabhi kabhi… Arjun ke touch ki yaad aati hai. Pata nahi… ajeeb sa lagta hai. Jahan usne chhoda tha wahan abhi bhi sensation hota hai.
Shanu ne aankhen bada kar Ammu ka haath daba diya
Shanu
Ohooo… madam toh aage nikal gayi lagta hai. Ab bata, kya plan hai?
Ammu ne bas halki si smile di, thoda blush kiya aur usne sir takiya me ghusa liya.
Ammu
Plan ka toh pata nahi… par yeh Arjun bhi na… itna gayab rehta hai. Kabhi dikhayi hi nahi deta.
Shanu ne mazaak udate hue bola
Shanu
Haan, lagta hai woh bhi tumhe tadpa kar mazaa le raha hai. Typical hero style.
Dono phir se hasi me gir padi. Room me ek girly secret wali energy bhar gayi thi—thoda naughty, thoda romantic aur thoda unsaid longing ka mixture.
Dinner khatam hone ke baad ghar me shaanti si ho gayi thi. Sab apne apne rooms me chale gaye the. Kitchen me bartan set karne ke baad Ammu ne ek glass doodh garam kiya aur tray me rakh kar drawing room ki taraf chali gayi jaha Zaheer abhi bhi sofa par baitha apna phone scroll kar raha tha.
Ammu uske saamne jaake glass uske taraf badhati hai.
Ammu
Bhai… doodh.
Zaheer ne ek casual smile ke saath glass le liya aur ek sip li. Tabhi Ammu ne uske paas sofa pe baith kar mischievous tone me kaha
Ammu
Vaise… mujhe pehle kyun nahi bataya ki tumhari choice meri best friend hi niklegi?
Zaheer thoda confuse hokar uski taraf dekhta hai, glass abhi bhi lips ke paas. Ammu ne thoda aur tease karte hue aankh dabai
Ammu
Shanu ko dekh ke toh lagta hai tum dono college ke sabse secret couple ho.
Zaheer ne sip lene ki koshish ki, lekin Ammu ke words sunkar ekdum se hansi rok nahi paaya aur doodh ka ek chhota sa sip uske muh se bahar nikal gaya. Uske chehre par ek embarrassed si smile aa gayi.
Ammu zor se hans padti hai, haath se apna pet pakad kar.
Ammu
Bas… yeh expression dekhne ke liye maine chheda tha!
Zaheer bhi sharma kar hansi rokne ki koshish karta hai, lekin uski aankhen uski bachpan wali innocent wali smile se chamak rahi thi.
Phir Ammu ekdum se serious ho gayi. Usne apna haath uske kandhe par rakha, aur dheere se kaha
Ammu
Main bahut khush hoon, Zaheer. Tu akela nahi hai… aur teri zindagi me koi hai jo tujhe samajhta hai, tujhe handle kar sakta hai. Aur woh bhi meri woh saheli jo humesha mere saath khadi rahi, chahe humari musibat ho ya khushi.
Zaheer uske words sunkar thoda emotional ho gaya. Ammu ki aankhen thodi si moist ho gayi thi jab usne agla sentence bola
Ammu
Aur sach bolun… iss ghar ko, iss family ko agar koi sambhal sakta hai mere yahan se jaane ke baad… toh wo sirf Shanu hai.
Yeh kehkar Ammu ki voice thodi heavy ho gayi. Zaheer ne uske chehre ki taraf dekha, ek second ke liye uske dil ka bojh halka sa feel hua. Woh relax sa ho gaya, jaise uski tension dissolve ho gayi ho.
Zaheer ne glass side me rakha aur Ammu ko apni taraf kheench kar side hug kar liya.
Zaheer
Tu hai na… toh main kabhi akela nahi rahunga.
Ammu uske kandhe par muskurati hui sir rakh deti hai, dono ki aankhon me ek hi baat likhi thi — ek dusre ki care aur ek unspoken assurance.
Raat der ho gayi thi. Ammu apne room me chali gayi thi aur ghar me ekdum silence tha. Zaheer bed par lete lete apna phone uthata hai. Screen par bas ek hi naam blink karta hai – Shanu . Usne turant text bheja.
Zaheer
Bata tu… Ammu ko tu hi bol aayi na sab?
Phone kuch second chup raha, phir Shanu ka reply aaya.
Shanu
Haan toh?
Kya hua Zaheer Qureshi… fatt gayi kya ab?
Zaheer ke lips pe halka sa smirk aa gaya. Usne typing shuru ki.
Zaheer
Meri fatt? Arey meri jaan… main toh bas dekh raha tha ki meri behen to-be bhabhi se tu kitni jaldi mil gayi.
Shanu ka reply turant aaya.
Shanu
Acha? Bhabhi bol ke bach jaoge kya?
Waise tumhari wajah se mujhe Ammu ke saamne sharm se laal hona pada… meri heartbeat itni fast thi ki mujhe laga main gir jaungi!
Zaheer ne ek mischievous emoji bheja.
Zaheer
Dil ki dhadkan tez ho gayi?
Main hota toh saans hi ruk jaati teri…
Shanu screen ko dekhke apne blanket me chhup gayi, cheeks garam ho gayi. Usne jaldi reply kiya.
Shanu
Oh hello Mr. Dialoguebaaz… tumhe lagta hai main itni asaani se tumpe fida ho jaungi?
Zaheer
Tu pehle hi fida hai… aur ab toh khud accept bhi kar diya Ammu ke saamne.
Shanu ne thoda possessive tone me likha.
Shanu
Haan… aur ab tum sirf mere ho. Koi aur ladki tumhe aankh utha kar bhi dekhe na, toh uski khair nahi.
Zaheer ekdum enjoy kar raha tha.
Zaheer
Jab tu itni possessive hoti hai na… uff, aur bhi sexy lagti hai.
Shanu ka dil tez tez dhadakne laga. Usne playful tone me likha.
Shanu
Bas karo… warna main kal tumhare ghar aake Baba ke saamne keh dungi ki tum raat raat bhar ladkiyon se chatting karte ho.
Zaheer ekdum husky mood me type karta hai.
Zaheer
Keh dena… aur unse bolna ki woh ladki tum ho.
Phir dekhna, shaadi ka card express me chhapenge
Shanu ne apna face pillow me daba liya aur typing shuru kiya.
Shanu
Tum mujhe control hi nahi karne dete… kabhi kabhi lagta hai tum meri jaan nikal loge.
Zaheer turant reply bhejta hai.
Zaheer
Jaan toh pehle hi meri hai… bas main apna haq lene ka wait kar raha hoon.
Shanu ka dil ekdum garam ho gaya, woh phone screen ko pakad kar muskaan daba nahi pa rahi thi.
Shanu
Good night, badtameez… aur sapne me aana zaroor.
Zaheer
Good night meri jaan… aur sapne me sirf main hi aunga. Aur wahan tum mujhse bach nahi paogi.
Raat ka waqt tha. Ammu apne room ki roshni halki kar ke bed par baithi thi. Hawa me ek khamoshi thi, lekin us khamoshi ke andar uske dil ki dhadkan ek alag hi awaaz kar rahi thi. Uski aankhon ke saamne woh pal bar-bar aa rahe the—wo raat jahan Arjun ne use apni baahon me lapet liya tha, jahan har ek touch ne uske andar bijli si daudayi thi.
Ammu ne apni aankh band ki, aur Arjun ki khushboo ko mehsoos karne ki koshish ki. Uske hoth ekdum se sukhe lagne lage, jaise kisi ne usse usi pal me chhoda ho aur phir lautne ka vaada karke chala gaya ho.
Uske pair bed ke kinare se latak rahe the, aur haath apne dupatte ko muthhi me kas ke pakde hue. Bechaini itni thi ki kabhi khud se baatein karne lagti.
Ammu (dheere se fasaane jaise bolti hai)
Arjun… tumhe andaza bhi hai tumne mujhe kis haal me chhod diya hai…
Uska dil chahta tha ki abhi darwaza khule aur Arjun saamne aa jaye. Pichli raato ke jazbaat uske liye ab ek nasha ban gaye the—ek aisa nasha jise wo chhod nahi pa rahi thi. Har ek second uske liye ek ghante jaisa lag raha tha.
Usne takiye ko apne seene se lagaya aur aankhein band karke apna galla us par rakh liya, jaise wo Arjun ka kandha ho. Us pal usne apne hoth halka sa khol diye… aur bas sochne lagi ki jab Arjun wapas aayega to use dekh kar wo apna sabr bilkul kho degi.
Dil ki dhadkan aur tez ho gayi. Room ki khamoshi ab uske beqarar shwaason ki awaaz se bhar chuki thi.
Sheher ke kone me ek purani anonymous building ka ek bada hall tha. Room ki halat aisi thi jaise saalon se kisi ne wahan safai nahi ki ho—diwaaron par se paint utra hua, chhat se ek purani pankhe ki chain latak rahi thi aur neeche kursiyan idhar-udhar bikhri hui thi.
Andar 40-50 log jama the. Kuch suit me, kuch casual kapdon me, aur kuch bilkul local netaon jaisi shakal wale. Sabke chehre par gussa, bechaini aur chinta barabar thi.
Ek taraf se zor-zor ki awaazein aa rahi thi.
Koi keh raha tha ki humein unke college ke system pe attack karna chahiye,
to koi chilla raha tha ki sirf ek match ya tournament se kuch nahi hoga.
Hawa me shor, behes aur thodi si dar ka mahaul tha.
Tabhi ek aadmi, lagbhag 45 saal ka, tez nazar aur mota moustache rakhta hua, kursi se uthta hai. Uska khada hote hi shor dheere-dheere kam hone lagta hai.
Usne apna haath uthaya aur sabko shant karne ki koshish ki.
Woh aadmi
Humein pehle yeh samajhna hoga ki jhagda karne se kuch nahi milega. Agar hum ek dusre par ilzaam lagate rahe to hum kabhi strong nahi ho paayenge.
Woh kuch der rukta hai, sabke chehre dekh kar. Phir dheere se bolta hai.
Woh aadmi
Sach yeh hai… humari side abhi bahut kamzor hai. Aur samne waalon ke paas… sabse bada weapon hai. Arjun Singh.
Uske bolte hi ek pal ke liye hall me khamoshi chha gayi. Jitne bhi log wahan baithe the, unke chehre par tanav ki lakeerein ubhar aayi. Arjun ka naam sunte hi jaise sabko ek saath yaad aa gaya ho ki woh akela hi unke liye kitna bada khatra ban sakta hai.
Kisi ne apne saathi ke kaan me dheere se kaha
Wo ladka ek machine hai… usko rokna mushkil hi nahi… namumkin hai.
45 saal ka aadmi kursi ke kinare par dono haath rakh kar aage jhuka, uski awaaz ab aur tez ho gayi.
Woh aadmi
Agar humein yeh ladai jeetni hai… to humein bhi apni taraf ek aisa hi insaan chahiye. Koi jo unke Arjun Singh ka jawab de sake.
Room me fir se fasaane wali khamoshi chhayi thi. Sab ek dusre ki taraf dekhe ja rahe the, jaise kisi ko samajh na aa raha ho
Sham ka waqt tha. Zaheer ke ghar ki chhat se dhoop dhalti hui dikh rahi thi. Hawa me thoda thandak aa gayi thi. Drawing room me Azhar sofa par baitha hua tha, ek kitaab khol kar. Tabhi darwaza khula aur Shanu haath me ek chhota packet liye andar aayi.

Tu pehle hi fida hai… aur ab toh khud accept bhi kar diya Ammu ke saamne.
Shanu ne thoda possessive tone me likha.
Shanu
Haan… aur ab tum sirf mere ho. Koi aur ladki tumhe aankh utha kar bhi dekhe na, toh uski khair nahi.
Zaheer ekdum enjoy kar raha tha.
Zaheer
Jab tu itni possessive hoti hai na… uff, aur bhi sexy lagti hai.
Shanu ka dil tez tez dhadakne laga. Usne playful tone me likha.
Shanu
Bas karo… warna main kal tumhare ghar aake Baba ke saamne keh dungi ki tum raat raat bhar ladkiyon se chatting karte ho.
Zaheer ekdum husky mood me type karta hai.
Zaheer
Keh dena… aur unse bolna ki woh ladki tum ho.
Phir dekhna, shaadi ka card express me chhapenge
Shanu ne apna face pillow me daba liya aur typing shuru kiya.
Shanu
Tum mujhe control hi nahi karne dete… kabhi kabhi lagta hai tum meri jaan nikal loge.
Zaheer turant reply bhejta hai.
Zaheer
Jaan toh pehle hi meri hai… bas main apna haq lene ka wait kar raha hoon.
Shanu ka dil ekdum garam ho gaya, woh phone screen ko pakad kar muskaan daba nahi pa rahi thi.
Shanu
Good night, badtameez… aur sapne me aana zaroor.
Zaheer
Good night meri jaan… aur sapne me sirf main hi aunga. Aur wahan tum mujhse bach nahi paogi.
Raat ka waqt tha. Ammu apne room ki roshni halki kar ke bed par baithi thi. Hawa me ek khamoshi thi, lekin us khamoshi ke andar uske dil ki dhadkan ek alag hi awaaz kar rahi thi. Uski aankhon ke saamne woh pal bar-bar aa rahe the—wo raat jahan Arjun ne use apni baahon me lapet liya tha, jahan har ek touch ne uske andar bijli si daudayi thi.
Ammu ne apni aankh band ki, aur Arjun ki khushboo ko mehsoos karne ki koshish ki. Uske hoth ekdum se sukhe lagne lage, jaise kisi ne usse usi pal me chhoda ho aur phir lautne ka vaada karke chala gaya ho.
Uske pair bed ke kinare se latak rahe the, aur haath apne dupatte ko muthhi me kas ke pakde hue. Bechaini itni thi ki kabhi khud se baatein karne lagti.
Ammu (dheere se fasaane jaise bolti hai)
Arjun… tumhe andaza bhi hai tumne mujhe kis haal me chhod diya hai…
Uska dil chahta tha ki abhi darwaza khule aur Arjun saamne aa jaye. Pichli raato ke jazbaat uske liye ab ek nasha ban gaye the—ek aisa nasha jise wo chhod nahi pa rahi thi. Har ek second uske liye ek ghante jaisa lag raha tha.
Usne takiye ko apne seene se lagaya aur aankhein band karke apna galla us par rakh liya, jaise wo Arjun ka kandha ho. Us pal usne apne hoth halka sa khol diye… aur bas sochne lagi ki jab Arjun wapas aayega to use dekh kar wo apna sabr bilkul kho degi.
Dil ki dhadkan aur tez ho gayi. Room ki khamoshi ab uske beqarar shwaason ki awaaz se bhar chuki thi.
Sheher ke kone me ek purani anonymous building ka ek bada hall tha. Room ki halat aisi thi jaise saalon se kisi ne wahan safai nahi ki ho—diwaaron par se paint utra hua, chhat se ek purani pankhe ki chain latak rahi thi aur neeche kursiyan idhar-udhar bikhri hui thi.
Andar 40-50 log jama the. Kuch suit me, kuch casual kapdon me, aur kuch bilkul local netaon jaisi shakal wale. Sabke chehre par gussa, bechaini aur chinta barabar thi.
Ek taraf se zor-zor ki awaazein aa rahi thi.
Koi keh raha tha ki humein unke college ke system pe attack karna chahiye,
to koi chilla raha tha ki sirf ek match ya tournament se kuch nahi hoga.
Hawa me shor, behes aur thodi si dar ka mahaul tha.
Tabhi ek aadmi, lagbhag 45 saal ka, tez nazar aur mota moustache rakhta hua, kursi se uthta hai. Uska khada hote hi shor dheere-dheere kam hone lagta hai.
Usne apna haath uthaya aur sabko shant karne ki koshish ki.
Woh aadmi
Humein pehle yeh samajhna hoga ki jhagda karne se kuch nahi milega. Agar hum ek dusre par ilzaam lagate rahe to hum kabhi strong nahi ho paayenge.
Woh kuch der rukta hai, sabke chehre dekh kar. Phir dheere se bolta hai.
Woh aadmi
Sach yeh hai… humari side abhi bahut kamzor hai. Aur samne waalon ke paas… sabse bada weapon hai. Arjun Singh.
Uske bolte hi ek pal ke liye hall me khamoshi chha gayi. Jitne bhi log wahan baithe the, unke chehre par tanav ki lakeerein ubhar aayi. Arjun ka naam sunte hi jaise sabko ek saath yaad aa gaya ho ki woh akela hi unke liye kitna bada khatra ban sakta hai.
Kisi ne apne saathi ke kaan me dheere se kaha
Wo ladka ek machine hai… usko rokna mushkil hi nahi… namumkin hai.
45 saal ka aadmi kursi ke kinare par dono haath rakh kar aage jhuka, uski awaaz ab aur tez ho gayi.
Woh aadmi
Agar humein yeh ladai jeetni hai… to humein bhi apni taraf ek aisa hi insaan chahiye. Koi jo unke Arjun Singh ka jawab de sake.
Room me fir se fasaane wali khamoshi chhayi thi. Sab ek dusre ki taraf dekhe ja rahe the, jaise kisi ko samajh na aa raha ho
