Chapter 9
Maine aakhri baar mirror mein khud ko dekha. Wohi same grey t-shirt - jo maine kai baar pehni thi aur uske saath jeans, thodi si faded. Yehi kapde ek ded mahine pehle tak mujhe kafi loosely fit aate they. Par aaj mujhse poori tarah chipke hue mere body ki ek curvy outline bana rahe they. Tshirt ke andar se mere tank top ki clear outline ban rahi thi.
Maine apne arms cross karte hue apne chest par rakhe, apne boobs se just neeche. Phir jaldi se unhe uncross kar diya. Kitna ajeeb lag raha tha, cross-armed karne se toh woh aur bhi jyada obvious ho rahe they.
Mere boobs... koi push-up bra nahi thi, bilkul natural. Waist pehle se patli, hips wider, aur jeans ke andar ek rounded curve leti hui meri ass clearly dikh rahi thi. Yeh sab mere kapdon ke through visible tha chahe main kitna bhi chhupane ki koshish karti.
Maine ek jacket dhoondne ke baare mein socha, par na toh mere paas koi jacket thi jo is body par fit aati aur na yeh mausam tha jacket pehenne ka.
Maine apne baalon ko dekha - ab woh mere kandhe se thoda sa neeche tak pahuch gaye they. Kafi jyada messy aur uneven lag rahe they, mujhe lambe hairs sambhalne aate hi nahi they. Pichle ek hafte mein main unhe alag alag tarah se baandhne ka try kar chuki thi, par kuch bhi work nahi kar raha tha. Aaj phir peeche se unhe apne haath mein pakadte hue baandha, par fir naak sikodte hue chhod diya.
Jo bhi tha ab yehi tha. Aaj main aise hi apne kamre se bahar jaane wali thi, aur bahar Raj baithe hue they! Sochte hi mere pet mein ek tight knot si bandh gayi.
Phir ek gehri saans lete hue maine khud se kaha, "Main yeh kar sakti hoon."
Is naye ghar mein move kiye hue 2 hafte se thoda jyada ho chuke they aur Raj bhi yahan aane mein thoda late ho gaye they.
Maine dheere se apne kamre ka darwaza khola aur ek kadam liya hi tha ki Dad ki aawaz mere kaano mein padi.
"Dekho Raj, aage se jo bhi medical treatment hon, humein informed rakha karo. Aakhir hum uske parents hain." Dad Raj se aise bol rahe they jaise kuch hafte pehle unhone hi nahi kaha tha ki 'woh jo marzi kare uske saath.'
Raj ne koi behas nahi ki. "I apologize, Vijay. Mujhe tumhe aur Sudha ko bhi loop mein rakhna chahiye tha."
Maine dheere se ek-do kadam aur aage liye taaki main un logo ki shakal dekh payu. Dad ke face par ek victorious si smile thi, aakhir unhone abhi Raj ko sorry bolne par mazboor kar diya tha.
"Raj iss sab ka koi side effect toh nahi hai na?" Mom ki aawaz mein pareshaani saaf jhalak rahi thi.
"Nahi Sudha. Trust me, main Kanika ko koi harm nahi hone dunga. I..." Raj kuch kehne hi wale they ki unki nazar mujh par padi.
Maine jaldi se ek kadam peeche le liye par tab tak der ho chuki thi.
Living room se Raj ki aawaz aayi, "Kanika... Good morning."
Main awkwardly unke saamne aayi, sar jhukaye hue jaise meri chori pakdi gayi ho. Dad aur mom dono meri taraf dekh rahe they, shayad ye sochte hue ki main kabse wahan khadi thi.
"Hum bas Raj se baat hi kar rahe they ki tum kitni pareshaan thi pichhle kuch hafton se." Mom ne chuppi todte hue kaha.
Unki baat sunkar kafi embarrassing sa lag raha tha, jaise main koi teenager hoon aur Mom ne meri koi personal baat publicly share kar di ho.
"Main... main theek hoon ab," maine dheere se kaha, abhi bhi nazar neeche rakhe hue.
"So paa rahi ho ab tum?" Raj ne bina kisi hichak ke poocha.
Shayad maine hi unhe ek call par bataya tha ki dard ki wajah se main so bhi nahi paa rahi thi. Specifically kahan kyun dard tha, obviously woh mention nahi kiya tha. Par ab jab woh saamne they toh mujhe dekh kar woh shayad guess kar paa rahe honge. Yeh sochte hi aur sharam aane lagi.
"Haan... pichhle kuch dino se better hai."
Raj ki nazrein mere messy baalon par thami hui thi. "Baal kafi jaldi bade ho gaye. Lagta hai medicines ka asar itna fast hua hai ki tumhein adjust karne ka waqt hi nahi mila. I take full responsibility for this."
Maine apne haath nervously apne baalon tak le gaye. "Haan, woh kafi messy ho gaye hain... main theek se sambhal nahi pa rahi..."
"Agar aapki permission ho," Raj ne Mom aur Dad ki taraf dekha, "toh main Kanika ko ek salon le jaa sakta hoon? I think uske hairs ko ek proper trimming aur styling ki zaroorat hai."
Dad ne meri taraf ek nazar daali, woh mere bikhre hue baal aur badalti hui body se kafi uncomfortable lag rahe they. Unhone Raj ki taraf dekhte hue halke se haan mein sar hila diya.
Mom ne thodi chinta ke saath mujhse poocha, "Kanika, tum comfortable ho jaane mein?"
"Haan," maine bina soche samjhe turant kaha. "Main... chali jaungi."
Mere dimaag mein bas yeh dhun sawaar thi ki mujhe apne baal theek karwane they. Yeh bhi nahi socha ki uske liye mujhe ghar se bahar jaana padega, ya log mujhe is halat mein dekhenge. Par jaise hi woh words mere muh se nikle, mujhe apni galti ka ehsas hua aur mere pet mein ek ajeeb si halchal hone lagi.
"Main change karke aayu kya?" maine apni t-shirt ko thoda sa adjust karte hue poocha.
"Nahi nahi," Raj ne khade hote hue mera haath gently pakad liya. "Tum bilkul theek lag rahi ho. Aise hi chalte hain."
Raj ne jab mera haath pakda mere poore shareer mein ek bijli si daud gayi. Unka haath garam tha, pakad bahut mazboot nahi thi, par fir bhi aisi jise main aaram se chhuda na payu.
Maine apne shoes pehente hue Mom ki taraf ek aakhri baar dekha. Unki aankhon mein ek halka sa concern dikh raha tha, ya phir shayad ek guilt. Kehna mushkil tha.
Shoes pehente hi main Raj ke saath ghar se nikal gayi. Maine andar bra nahi pehni hui thi toh chalte hue aisa mehsoos ho raha tha jaise mere chest kuch jyada hi upar neeche ho rahi ho.
Lift mein jaate hue maine apne arms apne chest ke upar cross kar liye, par phir lift ke door par apni reflection ko dekhte hi jaldi se sar neeche kar liya. Raj ne shayad notice kiya par kuch bole nahi.
Building se bahar nikalte hi dhoop tez lagi. Maine apni aankhein halki si meenchte hue Raj ki car ki taraf aa gayi. Wohi us din wali sleek stylish car.
Jab main seat belt laga rahi thi, tab unka dhyaan meri ungliyon par gaya jahan aaj ek chamakti hui ring thi.
"Tumne pehni hai aaj," unhone smile karte hue kaha.
Maine apna haath dekha. Shit. Kal raat aise hi pehen li thi aur main utaarna bhool gayi.
"Haan... woh... aise hi pehen li thi," maine awkwardly safai dete hue kaha.
"Achhi lag rahi hai," Raj ke chehre par ek satisfaction bhari smile thi. Jaise unhone koi small victory achieve ki ho.
Road par nikalte hi maine window ke bahar dekhna shuru kar diya. Apne arms apni godi mein tight pakde rakhe. Har speed breaker par, har turn par - mujhe apne body ka ehsaas ho raha tha. Bina bra ke kafi uncomfortable mehsoos ho raha tha, par mere paar koi proper bra bhi toh nahi thi.
"Dard ab better hai?" Raj ne achanak se poocha.
"Haan," maine bahar dekhte hue kaha.
"Sorry woh Doctor ki appointment thodi move karni padi, later this week. Main thoda busy ho gaya tha."
"Koi baat nahi," maine dheere se kaha.
"Woh kapde jo maine rakhe they... try kiye?"
"Abhi nahi."
"Kyun? Achhe nahi lage?"
"Nahi... aisa nahi hai. Kafi achhe hain, bas abhi comfortable nahi laga unhe pehenna." Maine seat par shift hote hue apne haath apni thighs ke neeche rakh liye.
"Kanika, woh tumhare hi hain ab. Tum unhe try kar sakti ho. Karogi na?"
"Haan..."
Maine gaadi se bahar dekha toh hum log South Ex ki market mein they. Raj ne ek bheed bhare area mein gaadi roki aur ek posh se dikhne wale salon ki taraf mujhe le jaane lage.
Salon ke andar ki air conditioning ki thandi hawa mere chehre par lagi, par mera sharir ghabrahat se garam ho raha tha. Har taraf sheeshe lage they aur har sheeshe mein mujhe apni wahi tight t-shirt aur bikhre hue baal dikh rahe they.
Raj ne stylist se kuch baat ki aur phir meri taraf mud kar bole, "Kanika, main bas 15-20 minute mein aata hoon. Tab tak tum relax karo, okay?"
Maine bas dheere se sar hila diya. Raj ke jaate hi mujhe aisa laga jaise mera sahara chala gaya ho. Stylist ne mujhe chair par baithaya aur mere baalon ke saath khelna shuru kiya. "Don't worry, ma'am. Hair kafi healthy hain, bas halki si trimming aur deep conditioning ki zaroorat hai," usne smile karte hue kaha.
Stylist ke muh se ma'am sunna hi itna ajeeb lag raha tha. Aaj tak mujhe shayad kisi ne ma'am nahi bulaya tha. Kya main sach mein sab ko ladki hi lag rahi thi.
Usne mere baalon ko thande paani se wash kiya aur apni fingers se massage karne lagi. Bahut hi jyada relaxing lag raha tha yeh sab. Phir usne mere baalon ko neeche se halka sa trim kiya taaki woh even lage aur phir blow dry karte hue unhe ek wavy sa look de diya.
Stylist ne meri taraf ek nazar daali aur phir gaalon par halka sa blush laga diya, "Haan ab perfect hai, you are so pretty ma'am!"
Main mirror mein dekhte hue believe nahi kar paa rahi thi yeh main hi thi. Is naye haircut mein mera face ke curves aur bhi soft lag rahe they, cheekbones pichhle kuch hafton mein sarak kar upar ki taraf ho gayi thi. Honth thode aur patle aur gulaabi ho gaye they. Wow... main ek hot ladki lag rahi thi.
![[Image: image.jpg]](https://i.postimg.cc/qqvxcSgf/image.jpg)
Main apne aap ko mirror mein dekh hi rahi thi ki salon ka darwaza khula aur Raj andar aaye. Mujhe mirror se dekhte hue kuch second ke liye woh wahin ruk gaye. Unki aankhen badi ho gayi aur ek pal ke liye unke face par wahi shock tha jo shayad mere khud ke face par tha.
Unki nazrein mere naye haircut se hote hue mere blush lage gaalon par ruki. Unke chehre par ek aisi satisfaction wali smile aayi jaise unka koi bahut bada sapna poora ho raha ho. Woh dheere se chalte hue mere peeche khade ho gaye. Sheeshe mein hamari nazrein mili.
"Maine kaha tha na," Raj ne dheere se kaha, unki aawaz thodi bhari ho gayi thi. "Tumhe bas thoda sa touch-up ki zaroorat thi. Now you look exactly how you should."
Unhone stylist ko kafi achhi tip di aur phir mera haath thama. Salon se nikalte hi mujhe asliyat ka ehsas hua. Bahar aisa lag raha tha jaise har nazar mujh par aakar ruk rahi ho, ek dam chubhti hui si. Hum log jaldi se car mein baith kar paas ke ek maal ki taraf chal pade, Raj abhi mujhe kapdon ki shopping karana chahte they.
Mall ke entrance par pahunchte hi meri dhak-dhak aur badh gayi. Raj ne gaadi park ki aur hum jaise hi andar enter hue, mujhe aisa laga jaise main kisi stadium mein aa gayi hoon jahan saari spotlight mujh par hai.
Main abhi bhi wahi tight white t-shirt aur jeans mein thi, aur naye haircut ke saath main shayad itni pretty lag rahi thi ki log mud mud kar mujhe dekh rahe they.
Saamne se ek young couple aa raha tha. Ladke ne mujhe dekha aur dekhta hi reh gaya. Ladki ne bhi mujhe aur uski nazar ko notice kar liya tha. Saamne se nikalte hi uski smile ekdam se gayab ho gayi aur usne ladke ka haath kas ke pakad liya, jaise main use usse chheen na lu.
Do-teen ladke side mein khade they. Ek ne apne friend ko elbow maari. Unhone meri taraf dekh kar aapas mein kuch whisper kiya aur ek ki aawaz mere kaan mein saaf aakar padi, "Bhai dekh... kya lag rahi hai!"
Maine sharam se sar neeche kar liya aur tez chalte hue Raj ke aur kareeb ho gayi. Upar jaate hue Escalator par bhi kuch aisa hi haal tha, saamne se neeche jaate hue esclator par ladke meri taraf lalchayi nazron se dekh rahe they aur ladkiyan bhi ek alag jalan bhari nazar se mujhe dekh rahi thi.
Mujhe bahut ajeeb lag raha tha. Ek taraf toh darr tha ki kahin koi mujhe pehchaan na le, par doosri taraf ek ajeeb sa, naya sa power mehsoos ho raha tha. Kya main sach mein itni 'hot' lag rahi thi ki ladke apna hosh kho rahe they aur ladkiyan mujhse jal rahi thi?
"Chalo, idhar," Raj mujhe bheed se door ek corner mein le gaye jahan kafi classy aur shaant sa ek Indian boutique tha. Mall ki bheed ka shor yahan achanak kam ho gaya.
Boutique ke andar ki fragrance kafi premium thi aur har cheez bahut organized thi. Saleswoman turant hamari taraf aayi aur smile karte hue boli, "Welcome Ma'am, Welcome Sir. Aap kis tarah ka collection dekhna chahenge?"
'Ma'am'... phir wahi word. Par ab mujhe yeh sunkar itna ajeeb nahi lag raha tha, aadat si padti jaa rahi thi.
Raj ne sidhe ek rack ki taraf ishara kiya jahan Indian dresses thi. Unhone kafi saari dresses scan ki aur phir ek peach-colored kurti aur churidar set uthaya. Fabric kafi soft, silky aur thoda translucent sa lag raha tha jo body-hugging hone wala tha.
"Yeh try karo," Raj ne mujhe woh kurti aur churidar set pakdate hue kaha. Maine hichkichate hue kapdo ko pakda.
Saleswoman mujhe ek fitting room ki taraf le gayi. Main door close karke us silky si dress ko pakde rahi. Kafi ajeeb sa lag raha tha yahan yeh dress try karna, par shayad utna nahi jitna us din doctor ke office mein laga tha.
Maine apni purani t-shirt aur jeans utari aur us silky peach kurti ko apne badan par sarkate hue pehna. Kapda itna soft aur mehanga tha ki meri skin ko chhu kar mere andar ek ajeeb si siharan hone lagi.
Jab maine mirror mein khud ko dekha, toh meri saans atak gayi. Woh kurti mere naye curves par jaise chipak gayi thi, meri patli waist aur wide hote hips ko itne khoobsurat tareeke se dikha rahi thi ki mujhe yakeen nahi aaya ki ye main hoon. Peach colour mere naye soft complexion par khil kar aa raha tha. Maine dheere se apne baalon ko jhatka aur trial room se bahar nikli.
Raj wahan wait kar rahe they. Jaise hi unki nazar mujh par padi, woh sofa se khade ho gaye. Unki aankhon mein ek aisi chamak thi jaise unhone koi taj-mahal dekh liya ho. "Stunning," unhone bas ek word kaha, par unki nazron ne poori kahani bayaan kar di.
Main jaldi se kaanpti hui wapas change room mein ghus gayi aur apni tshirt aur jeans pehen li. Bahar aakar unhone mere haath se woh dress lete hue use bill karwa liya aur saath hi 2-3 aur kurti bhi.
Shopping ke baad mujhe zor se bathroom jaane ki zaroorat mehsoos hui. Ghabrahat aur excitement mein mera dimaag jaise sunn ho gaya tha. Maine tezi se bathroom ki taraf kadam badhaye aur bina upar dekhe ek darwaze ke andar enter ho gayi.
Andar kadam rakhte hi thanda sannata chha gaya. Maine sar uthaya toh dekha ki saamne row mein teen-chaar aadmi aur ladke khade hokar urinate kar rahe they. Sab ke sab ek saath mude aur woh hairaan aankhon se meri taraf dekhne lage. Ek ladka jo haath dho raha tha woh behte paani ko bhool kar meri taraf ghoorne laga.
Mera chehra tam-tama gaya. Mujhe ehsas hua ki main galti se Men’s Toilet mein aa gayi hoon. Main bina kuch bole, wahan se palat kar itni tezi se bhagi ki mere pair ladkhada rahe they. Bahar nikal kar maine ek lambi saans li, mera dil aise dhadak raha tha jaise bahar nikal aayega. Kitni sharam aa rahi thi mujhe is tarah men's toilet mein jaane mein jab tak ab tak main hamesha men's toilet mein hi gayi thi.
Jab aakhir kaar main female toilet se aayi toh Raj muskura rahe they, pata nahi unhe meri embarrassment ka andaza tha ya nahi.
"Chalo, ek aakhri stop baaki hai," unhone kaha aur mujhe ek exclusive Lingerie shop ke samne le gaye.
"Main bahar wait karta hoon. Tum andar jaakar apne liye kuch zaroori cheezein le lo," Raj ne mujhe akela chhodte hue kaha.
Main darrte-darrte andar gayi. Charon taraf lace, silk aur satin ke bras aur panties tangi hui thi. Ek shop girl mere paas aayi. "How can I help you, Ma'am? Specific size ya style?"
Maine nervously apni ungliyan counter par feri. "Actually... main pehli baar lingerie khareed rahi hoon."
Woh ladki mujhe dekh kar thoda surprise hui, itni pretty ladki aur pehli baar? Par usne turant apne aap ko sambhala aur smile karte hue mujhe options dikhane lagi. Maine kafi hichkichate hue kuch cotton aur lace bras aur matching panties select ki. Billing ke waqt mera sar sharam se jhuka hua tha.
Ghar drop karte waqt Raj ne car roki aur meri taraf mud kar dekha. "Kal tumhara college ka pehla din hoga is naye look mein. Main tumhe apne saath lekar chalunga."
"Raj, main ab is tarah college kaise jaa sakti hoon?" maine ghabra kar pucha.
"Itna ghabra kyun rahi ho, tum itni badli hui lag rahi ho ki shayad hi koi tumhe pehchaan paaye." Unhone steering se ek haath chhodte hue mere haath pakda.
"Par kisi ne pehchaan liya toh... sab wahan mujhe jaante hai."
"Trust me," unhone kaha, meri aankhon mein dekhte hue. "Tum ready ho. Aaj tumne dekha na, salon mein, mall mein, stores mein. Sab ne tumhe ek normal ladki ki tarah dekha. Kyunki tum ek normal ladki hi ho."
Mera haath abhi bhi unke haath mein tha aur meri himmat nahi ho rahi thi use chhudane ki. Main window se bahar dekhte hue kal ke baare mein soch rahi thi aur meri ghabrahat badti jaa rahi thi.
Kal... main... Kanika ban ke... college jaane wali thi.
Maine aakhri baar mirror mein khud ko dekha. Wohi same grey t-shirt - jo maine kai baar pehni thi aur uske saath jeans, thodi si faded. Yehi kapde ek ded mahine pehle tak mujhe kafi loosely fit aate they. Par aaj mujhse poori tarah chipke hue mere body ki ek curvy outline bana rahe they.

"Main... main theek hoon ab," maine dheere se kaha, abhi bhi nazar neeche rakhe hue.
"So paa rahi ho ab tum?" Raj ne bina kisi hichak ke poocha.
Shayad maine hi unhe ek call par bataya tha ki dard ki wajah se main so bhi nahi paa rahi thi. Specifically kahan kyun dard tha, obviously woh mention nahi kiya tha. Par ab jab woh saamne they toh mujhe dekh kar woh shayad guess kar paa rahe honge. Yeh sochte hi aur sharam aane lagi.
"Haan... pichhle kuch dino se better hai."
Raj ki nazrein mere messy baalon par thami hui thi. "Baal kafi jaldi bade ho gaye. Lagta hai medicines ka asar itna fast hua hai ki tumhein adjust karne ka waqt hi nahi mila. I take full responsibility for this."
Maine apne haath nervously apne baalon tak le gaye. "Haan, woh kafi messy ho gaye hain... main theek se sambhal nahi pa rahi..."

"Maine kaha tha na," Raj ne dheere se kaha, unki aawaz thodi bhari ho gayi thi. "Tumhe bas thoda sa touch-up ki zaroorat thi. Now you look exactly how you should."
Unhone stylist ko kafi achhi tip di aur phir mera haath thama. Salon se nikalte hi mujhe asliyat ka ehsas hua. Bahar aisa lag raha tha jaise har nazar mujh par aakar ruk rahi ho, ek dam chubhti hui si. Hum log jaldi se car mein baith kar paas ke ek maal ki taraf chal pade, Raj abhi mujhe kapdon ki shopping karana chahte they.
Mall ke entrance par pahunchte hi meri dhak-dhak aur badh gayi. Raj ne gaadi park ki aur hum jaise hi andar enter hue, mujhe aisa laga jaise main kisi stadium mein aa gayi hoon jahan saari spotlight mujh par hai.
Main abhi bhi wahi tight white t-shirt aur jeans mein thi, aur naye haircut ke saath main shayad itni pretty lag rahi thi ki log mud mud kar mujhe dekh rahe they.
Saamne se ek young couple aa raha tha. Ladke ne mujhe dekha aur dekhta hi reh gaya. Ladki ne bhi mujhe aur uski nazar ko notice kar liya tha. Saamne se nikalte hi uski smile ekdam se gayab ho gayi aur usne ladke ka haath kas ke pakad liya, jaise main use usse chheen na lu.
Do-teen ladke side mein khade they. Ek ne apne friend ko elbow maari. Unhone meri taraf dekh kar aapas mein kuch whisper kiya aur ek ki aawaz mere kaan mein saaf aakar padi, "Bhai dekh... kya lag rahi hai!"
Maine sharam se sar neeche kar liya aur tez chalte hue Raj ke aur kareeb ho gayi. Upar jaate hue Escalator par bhi kuch aisa hi haal tha, saamne se neeche jaate hue esclator par ladke meri taraf lalchayi nazron se dekh rahe they aur ladkiyan bhi ek alag jalan bhari nazar se mujhe dekh rahi thi.
Mujhe bahut ajeeb lag raha tha. Ek taraf toh darr tha ki kahin koi mujhe pehchaan na le, par doosri taraf ek ajeeb sa, naya sa power mehsoos ho raha tha. Kya main sach mein itni 'hot' lag rahi thi ki ladke apna hosh kho rahe they aur ladkiyan mujhse jal rahi thi?
"Chalo, idhar," Raj mujhe bheed se door ek corner mein le gaye jahan kafi classy aur shaant sa ek Indian boutique tha. Mall ki bheed ka shor yahan achanak kam ho gaya.
Boutique ke andar ki fragrance kafi premium thi aur har cheez bahut organized thi. Saleswoman turant hamari taraf aayi aur smile karte hue boli, "Welcome Ma'am, Welcome Sir. Aap kis tarah ka collection dekhna chahenge?"
'Ma'am'... phir wahi word. Par ab mujhe yeh sunkar itna ajeeb nahi lag raha tha, aadat si padti jaa rahi thi.
Raj ne sidhe ek rack ki taraf ishara kiya jahan Indian dresses thi. Unhone kafi saari dresses scan ki aur phir ek peach-colored kurti aur churidar set uthaya. Fabric kafi soft, silky aur thoda translucent sa lag raha tha jo body-hugging hone wala tha.
"Yeh try karo," Raj ne mujhe woh kurti aur churidar set pakdate hue kaha. Maine hichkichate hue kapdo ko pakda.
Saleswoman mujhe ek fitting room ki taraf le gayi. Main door close karke us silky si dress ko pakde rahi. Kafi ajeeb sa lag raha tha yahan yeh dress try karna, par shayad utna nahi jitna us din doctor ke office mein laga tha.
Maine apni purani t-shirt aur jeans utari aur us silky peach kurti ko apne badan par sarkate hue pehna. Kapda itna soft aur mehanga tha ki meri skin ko chhu kar mere andar ek ajeeb si siharan hone lagi.
Jab maine mirror mein khud ko dekha, toh meri saans atak gayi. Woh kurti mere naye curves par jaise chipak gayi thi, meri patli waist aur wide hote hips ko itne khoobsurat tareeke se dikha rahi thi ki mujhe yakeen nahi aaya ki ye main hoon. Peach colour mere naye soft complexion par khil kar aa raha tha. Maine dheere se apne baalon ko jhatka aur trial room se bahar nikli.
Raj wahan wait kar rahe they. Jaise hi unki nazar mujh par padi, woh sofa se khade ho gaye. Unki aankhon mein ek aisi chamak thi jaise unhone koi taj-mahal dekh liya ho. "Stunning," unhone bas ek word kaha, par unki nazron ne poori kahani bayaan kar di.
Main jaldi se kaanpti hui wapas change room mein ghus gayi aur apni tshirt aur jeans pehen li. Bahar aakar unhone mere haath se woh dress lete hue use bill karwa liya aur saath hi 2-3 aur kurti bhi.
Shopping ke baad mujhe zor se bathroom jaane ki zaroorat mehsoos hui. Ghabrahat aur excitement mein mera dimaag jaise sunn ho gaya tha. Maine tezi se bathroom ki taraf kadam badhaye aur bina upar dekhe ek darwaze ke andar enter ho gayi.
Andar kadam rakhte hi thanda sannata chha gaya. Maine sar uthaya toh dekha ki saamne row mein teen-chaar aadmi aur ladke khade hokar urinate kar rahe they. Sab ke sab ek saath mude aur woh hairaan aankhon se meri taraf dekhne lage. Ek ladka jo haath dho raha tha woh behte paani ko bhool kar meri taraf ghoorne laga.
Mera chehra tam-tama gaya. Mujhe ehsas hua ki main galti se Men’s Toilet mein aa gayi hoon. Main bina kuch bole, wahan se palat kar itni tezi se bhagi ki mere pair ladkhada rahe they. Bahar nikal kar maine ek lambi saans li, mera dil aise dhadak raha tha jaise bahar nikal aayega. Kitni sharam aa rahi thi mujhe is tarah men's toilet mein jaane mein jab tak ab tak main hamesha men's toilet mein hi gayi thi.
Jab aakhir kaar main female toilet se aayi toh Raj muskura rahe they, pata nahi unhe meri embarrassment ka andaza tha ya nahi.
"Chalo, ek aakhri stop baaki hai," unhone kaha aur mujhe ek exclusive Lingerie shop ke samne le gaye.
"Main bahar wait karta hoon. Tum andar jaakar apne liye kuch zaroori cheezein le lo," Raj ne mujhe akela chhodte hue kaha.
Main darrte-darrte andar gayi. Charon taraf lace, silk aur satin ke bras aur panties tangi hui thi. Ek shop girl mere paas aayi. "How can I help you, Ma'am? Specific size ya style?"
Maine nervously apni ungliyan counter par feri. "Actually... main pehli baar lingerie khareed rahi hoon."
Woh ladki mujhe dekh kar thoda surprise hui, itni pretty ladki aur pehli baar? Par usne turant apne aap ko sambhala aur smile karte hue mujhe options dikhane lagi. Maine kafi hichkichate hue kuch cotton aur lace bras aur matching panties select ki. Billing ke waqt mera sar sharam se jhuka hua tha.
Ghar drop karte waqt Raj ne car roki aur meri taraf mud kar dekha. "Kal tumhara college ka pehla din hoga is naye look mein. Main tumhe apne saath lekar chalunga."
"Raj, main ab is tarah college kaise jaa sakti hoon?" maine ghabra kar pucha.
"Itna ghabra kyun rahi ho, tum itni badli hui lag rahi ho ki shayad hi koi tumhe pehchaan paaye." Unhone steering se ek haath chhodte hue mere haath pakda.
"Par kisi ne pehchaan liya toh... sab wahan mujhe jaante hai."
"Trust me," unhone kaha, meri aankhon mein dekhte hue. "Tum ready ho. Aaj tumne dekha na, salon mein, mall mein, stores mein. Sab ne tumhe ek normal ladki ki tarah dekha. Kyunki tum ek normal ladki hi ho."
Mera haath abhi bhi unke haath mein tha aur meri himmat nahi ho rahi thi use chhudane ki. Main window se bahar dekhte hue kal ke baare mein soch rahi thi aur meri ghabrahat badti jaa rahi thi.
Kal... main... Kanika ban ke... college jaane wali thi.
