Misc. Erotica सम्मान और बदला: Hindi Version Of Honor and Vengeance

[Deepak.kapoor]

Hakeekat ka Darawna Chehra

Achanak, Sher ki aankhein khuli. Kamre mein sannata tha. Na koi siski thi, na koi reshmi saaya.

Sher haanf raha tha, uska gala poori tarah sookh chuka tha. Usne jhatke se apne charon taraf dekha—vahan na Meera thi, na uski woh neeli dress, aur na hi woh vaheshi milan. Woh apne usi badboodar aur chhote se kamre mein akela tha.

Uska hath anjane mein hi apni jaanghon ke beech gaya. Uski lungi uske chipchipe veerya se sani hui thi. Woh garam veerya jise usne Meera ki gehrai mein giraya tha, woh asal mein uske apne kapdon par beh chuka tha. Uska woh 7 inch ka 'ghamand' ab dheela padkar sust pada tha, jo bas kuch pal pehle Meera ke andar tabahi macha raha tha.

Sher [Hataasha aur gusse mein phusphusate hue]: "Dhat teri ki... sapna! Saala sab sapna tha!"

Jaise-jaise uski yaaddasht saaf hui, hakeekat ek thande saaye ki tarah us par chha gayi.

Sher [Man hi man - sadme mein]: 'Ye... ye sab kya tha? Memsaab kahan hain?'

Use dheere-dheere sab yaad aane laga. Meera use sahara dekar uske quarter tak layi thi. Phir jaise hi ve kamre ke andar pahunche, woh jaanboojhkar neeche gir gaya aur saath hi Meera ko bhi apne seene par kheencha liya. Usne chaturaai se Meera ka hath apne lund par rakhwa diya aur use bataya ki yeh hissa itna sakht isliye hai kyunki us chorni ne vahan zor se vaar kiya tha.

Phir kisi tarah Meera uski pakad se chhooti aur use bistar tak pahunchane mein madad ki. Bistar par litane ke baad Meera bina kuch kahe vahan se nikal gayi, jaise use kisi baat par sharm aa rahi ho.

Woh saara manzar—Meera ka use sahara dena, uska nightgown khulna, aur bistar par woh vaheshi khel—sirf sapna tha.

Sher apni aankhein moonde bistar par leta hua tha, uske dimaag mein abhi bhi un kaalpanik siskiyon ki goonj baaki thi.

Sher ne bistar par pade apne hath ko dekha, jo ab ganda ho chuka tha. Usne apni mutthi bheenchi.

Sher: (Gusse aur hataasha mein budbudate hue) "Saali yeh Meera Memsahab, mujhe paagal kar rahi hai. Yeh ek aisi aag hai jo mujhe jalaaye ja rahi hai; har baar woh bach jaati hai. Mujhe har baar itna paas aakar bhi khaali hath lautna padta hai."

Sher ne gusse mein apni mutthi bistar par de maari, uski aankhon mein hawas aur badle ki mili-juli chingariyan sulag rahi thi. Woh apni hi kalpanaon ke us adhoori pyaas se tilmila raha tha, jisne use hakeekat aur bhram ke beech mein phansa diya tha.

Use apni haar ka ehsaas hua. Meera ne use na keval shareerik roop se chot pahunchai thi, balki uski mardanagi ko dhool mein mila diya tha. Woh akela, paseene mein tar aur apne hi gande khayalon ke beech pada reh gaya, jabki Meera apne kamre mein surakshit thi.

Sher ne khud ko shaant karte hue man hi man kaha, "Khud par gussa mat kar Sher. Dekh tune aaj kya haasil kiya hai. Tune aaj Meera Memsaab ko sirf chhua hi nahi, balki unhein nanga kar ke unke shareer ke har hisse ko chhua, chaata aur maroda hai. Bhale hi tera bahana us chorni ko pakadne ka tha, lekin woh acchi tarah jaanti thi ki woh hath tera hi tha. Yeh us chori-chhipe bathroom se dekhne ya gehri dava ki neend mein bedroom mein unhein chhoone se kahin laakh guna behtar tha."

Woh apni khatiya par chit leta hua tha, chhat ki ore dekhte hue ek hath apne seene par pher raha tha. Band aankhon ke peeche vahi nazara film ki tarah chal raha tha jise usne apni aankhon se jiya tha.

Sher [Man hi man]: 'Aah... Memsaab! Kya kayaamat jism paaya hai aapne. Us andhere mein jab aapki woh neeli thong utri, to laga jaise jannat ka darwaza khul gaya ho. Aapki woh gulaabi yoni... bilkul kisi taaza khile hue phool ki kali jaisi, jo dar aur uttejana se kaanp rahi thi. Us par jo nami thi, woh kisi amrit se kam nahi thi.'

Sher ke chehre par ek vaheshi muskaan phail gayi. Use yaad aaya ki kaise usne Meera ke stan apni mutthi mein bheenchi the.

Sher [Aantarik samvaad]: 'Kitne sakht aur raseele... jab maine unhein maroda, to aapki woh dabi hui cheekh ne mere khoon ki garmi badha di thi. Aur jab mera munh vahan pahuncha... uff! Aapke un nipples ka swaad abhi bhi meri zubaan par chadha hua hai. Phir woh nange aur paseene se bheege hue koonlhe... jab maine aapki gaand ko apni hatheliyon mein bhara aur use jee bharkar choosa, to laga jaise duniya ki saari daulat meri mutthi mein hai.'

Uske chehre par ab ek shaitaani santosh ki lehar daud gayi. Use yaad aaya ki kaise uski ungliyan un makhmali angon ko mehsoos kar rahi thi aur Meera chaahkar bhi use rok nahi paa rahi thi.

Sher [Aantarik samvaad]: "Aur sabse badi baat thi Meera ki woh aahein... My God! 'Please mat karo', 'Aah'... unki har ek karaah mere dil ko thandak pahuncha rahi thi."

Yeh pehli baar tha jab usne Meera ke hosh-o-havaas mein rehte hue uske jism ki seemaon ko laangha tha. Use samajh aa gaya tha ki ab Meera ke man mein uske sparsh ki ek amit chhaap chhoot chuki hai, jo use andar hi andar bechain karti rahegi.
-------

Ush raat kamre ke bheetar sannata tha, par Meera ke dimaag mein toofaan macha hua tha. Woh bistar par leti hui thi, lekin uski aankhein chhat ko taak rahi thi. Jism thanda pad chuka tha, magar nason mein abhi bhi us dava ki maddham si lehar daud rahi thi, jo reh-rehkar uske badan mein kampkampi paida kar deti thi.

Meera ne karvat badli. Jaise hi uski komal tvacha reshmi chaadar se ragdi, use vahi ehsaas vaapas yaad aaya—Sher ke un sakht haathon ka sparsh.

Meera [Aantarik samvaad]: 'Kyun... kyun mera jism abhi bhi us jalan dhoondh raha hai? Woh ek darinda hai… usne mujhe andhere mein dabochha, mujhe bebas kiya. Par woh ehsaas...'

Meera [Aantarik samvaad]: 'Woh pal... jab usne mujhe peeche se dabochha tha. Uske haathon ka woh sakht ehsaas mere stanon par... woh nafrat se marod raha tha ya hawas se? Par mere shareer ne kyun saath diya? Jab usne mere koonlhon ko apni giraft mein liya aur apna munh vahan lagaya, to meri rooh tak kaanp gayi thi. Woh apmaan tha... par us apmaan mein ek ajeeb sa khichav tha.'

Woh chaahkar bhi us khichav ko nakar nahi paa rahi thi. Dava ke us shaitaani asar ne uski naitikta aur uski vaasana ke beech ki deewar ko dhundhla kar diya tha.

Use khud se ghin aa rahi thi ki woh ek naukar ki un harkaton ko yaad kar rahi hai, lekin davai ka asar aur us pal ki uttejana ne uske bheetar ek aisi halchal macha di thi jise shaant karna uske bas mein nahi tha. Woh jitni baar Sartaj ka chehra yaad karne ki koshish karti, Sher ki bhaari awaaz uske kaanon mein goonj uthti, "Dekhiye to sahi... ye kaise mere haathon mein sama rahe hain."

Meera [Man hi man]: 'Usne mujhe dekha hai... poori tarah nanga. Uski ungliyon aur zubaan ke nishaan ab bhi mere badan par jaise jal rahe hain. Use bhale hi lagta ho ki usne kisi chorni ko bhoga hai, par mera rom-rom jaanta hai ki us waqt mein uske neeche pis rahi thi. Kya ab mein kabhi uske saamne sir uthakar khadi ho paungi?'

Meera [Man hi man]: 'Kam se kam ek baat ki rahat hai... use nahi pata ki woh mein thi. Woh to us 'chorni' ko maza chakha raha tha. Agar use zara bhi shak hota ki woh uski Memsahab hai, to woh kabhi apni had paar nahi karta. Bechara... woh to vafaadari nibha raha tha.'

Tabhi, achanak use Sher ke ve shabd yaad aaye jo usne us andhere galiyare mein phusphusaye the. Meera ke kaan sunn ho gaye.

Sher ki awaaz (Yaadon mein goonjte hue): "Kitni gulaabi dikh rahi hai, bilkul tere oopri labon ki tarah. Kya meri Memsahab ki bhi tere jaisi hi hogi? Kaash mein kabhi dekh paata..."

Meera ki dhadkan tez ho gayi. Usne aankhein moond li. Woh shabd uske dimaag mein hathode ki tarah bajne lage—"Kaash mein kabhi dekh paata…"

Meera [Aantarik samvaad]: 'Iska matlab... Sher mujhe us nazar se dekhta hai? Woh meri tulna us chorni ke nange jism se kar raha tha. Woh mere angon ke baare mein sochta hai... woh mujhe paana chahta hai!'

Use ehsaas hua ki Sher ki vafaadari ke peeche ek sulagti hui hawas chhipi hai. Woh use 'Sati-Savitri' aur 'Devi' kehta hai, par man hi man woh use apni mardanagi ke neeche kuchalne ke sapne dekhta hai.

Meera ne apne kaampte haathon se apne hi badan ko chhua. Jahan-jahan Sher ke hath lage the, vahan abhi bhi ek meetha dard baaki tha.

Meera [Man hi man - hawas aur bhram ke beech]: 'Woh mujhe chahta hai... aur aaj usne anjane mein hi sahi, mujhe pa liya. Use lag raha hai ki usne kisi chorni ko bhoga, par usne mujhe chhua hai. Kya woh sach mein nahi jaanta tha? Ya phir... kya usne ye sab jaanboojhkar kiya?'

Woh ulajh gayi thi. Lekin ek baat saaf thi—ab jab bhi Sher uske saamne aayega, woh use ek naukar ki tarah nahi dekh paayegi. Use pata chal chuka tha ki woh uske jism ka pyaasa hai.

----------------------------------------

Agli subah Meera aaine ke saamne khadi thi, par aaj uski aankhon mein woh pehle vali maasoomiyat nahi thi. Usne laal chiffon ki saree pehni thi, jo uske gore badan par lipti hui thi. Chiffon ka patla kapda uske shareer ke utaar-chadhav ko numaya kar raha tha, lekin Meera ka dhyaan apni khoobsoorti se zyaada apne vujood par tha.

Usne aaine mein apni gardan aur kandhon ko gaur se dekha. Use abhi bhi vahin kahin Sher ke un haathon ka ehsaas ho raha tha. Uska chehra sharm aur gusse se laal-surkh ho gaya.

Meera [Aantarik samvaad]: 'Kal ki woh ghatna... aur raat ki woh dava lagane vali baat. Sher ki aankhon mein woh jo chamak thi, woh dard ki nahi thi. Vah mujhe dekh raha tha… jaise koi shikaari apne shikaar ko dekhta hai.'

Meera ne apni saree ke pallu ko thoda aur kas liya. Use ab apni suraksha ki chinta satane lagi thi. Vah jaanti thi ki Sher bhale hi Sartaj ke saamne kitna bhi imaandaar aur vafaadaar banne ka naatak kare, par uske man ke andhere konon mein Meera ke liye ek aisi chaahat pal rahi hai jo kisi bhi waqt maryada ki sarhadein laangh sakti hai.

Meera [Man hi man]: 'Usne kaha tha—"Kaash mein kabhi dekh paata." Vah mere shareer ke baare mein sochta hai. Vah meri tulna us chorni se kar raha tha taaki vah apni hawas ko vafaadari ka naam de sake. Mujhe ab bahut saavdhaan rehna hoga. Sartaj to us par aankh band karke bharosa karte hain.'

Meera ne tay kar liya tha ki ab vah Sher ko apne kareeb aane ka ek bhi mauka nahi degi. Use ab apni doori banaaye rakhni thi, kyunki kal uska apna shareer bhi uske saath gaddaari kar chuka tha. Vah us ehsaas se dar rahi thi jo Sher ke sparsh ne uske bheetar jagaaya tha.

Usne apni bindi theek ki aur ek gehri saans li.

Sartaj office jaane ke liye taiyaar tha. Apni revolver check karte hue vah Meera ke paas aaya aur uske maathe ko choomte hue bola.

Sartaj: "Meera, mein office nikal raha hoon. Aaj tumhe ek kaam karna hai… zara Sher ko dekh lena. Bechare ko bahut zor ki chot lagi hai. Raat bhar dard se karaah raha tha. Vah keh raha tha ki us chorni ne uske andkosh par badi berehmi se laat maari hai. Use marham ya koi dava de dena, aakhir usne kal apni jaan par khelkar tumhari raksha ki hai."

Sartaj ke ye shabd sunte hi Meera ka chehra laal-surkh ho gaya. Uske pet mein jaise marod uthne lagi. Vah jaanti thi ki vah 'bereham chorni' koi aur nahi, balki vah khud thi. Usne hi apni poori nafrat aur taakat us laat mein jhonk di thi.

Meera [Aantarik samvaad]: 'Hey Bhagwan! Sartaj mujhse usi darinde ki seva karne ko keh rahe hain jisne kal raat meri garima ke saath khilvaad kiya? Mein use kaise dekhoongi? Uski aankhon mein kaise jhaankoongi?'

Meera ne muskuraakar kaha, "Aap chinta mat karo, mein dekh loongi aur agar use zyaada dard hua to doctor ke paas le jaoongi."

Sartaj ke jaate hi Meera ki muskurahat gaayab ho gayi aur uski jagah ek gehri chinta aur ghabrahat ne le li. Use acchi tarah pata tha ki Sher ki vah chot mahaz ek bahaana hai—use apne kareeb bulaane ka.

Meera ne ek aakhiri baar aaine mein khud ko dekha. Laal chiffon ki saree uske jism par is kadar khil rahi thi ki khud uski apni nazrein thehar gayi. Usne apne honthon par ek halki si muskaan laate hue khud se phusphusakar kaha:

"Sach to ye hai ki mein Sher ko poori tarah dosh bhi nahi de sakti. Aakhir koi bhi insaan mujh par mar mite. Ye badan hi aisa hai..."

Par agle hi pal uski muskurahat gaayab ho gayi aur uski jagah ek gehri chinta ne le li. Usne apne seene par hath rakha, jahan dhadkanein bekaabu thi.

Meera [Aantarik samvaad]: 'Asli dushman baahar nahi, mere andar hai. Mein ye sab kyun mehsoos kar rahi hoon? Kyun Sher ki un gandi baaton aur uske vaheshi sparsh ko yaad karke mera shareer phir se vahi ajeeb si uttejana mehsoos karne lagta hai? Kal raat jo hua, woh sirf us dava ka asar tha jo mein pregnancy ke liye le rahi hoon, ya mere andar ki koi dabi hui pyaas?'

Usne socha ki kya use Sartaj ko sab bata dena chahiye.

Meera [Man hi man]: "Kya mujhe Sartaj ko bata dena chahiye ki in dino mein kitni uttejit mehsoos kar rahi hoon? Par kya woh samjhenge? Kahin woh mujh par shak to nahi karne lagenge ki unki patni ke man mein aise gande khayal kyun aa rahe hain? Nahi... unhein yeh sab bataana theek nahi hoga. Yeh aag mujhe andar hi andar jala rahi hai, par iska zikr karna apni hi nazron mein girna hoga."

Usne ek gehri aur bechain saans li. Use laga ki shaayad yeh koi shareerik ya maansik samasya hai. Shaayad vah jo davai pregnancy ke liye le rahi thi, usne uske hormones mein kuch aisi gadbadi kar di hai jo use kaabu se baahar kar rahi hai.

Meera [Man hi man]: "Mujhe apni doctor se baat karni hi hogi. Kisi peshevar se salah lena hi is waqt sabse sahi raasta hai, isse pehle ki meri yeh androoni aag mujhe kisi aise raaste par le jaaye jahan se lautna mumkin na ho. Yeh tadap, yeh ehsaas... yeh sab saamaanya nahi hai."

Tabhi use Sartaj ka nirdesh yaad aaya—Sher ko marham lagaane ka. Vah phir se hichkichaa gayi. Ab vah Sher ke kareeb jaane ka zara bhi jokhim nahi uthaana chaahti thi. Kal ka vah nazara aur Sher ki vah vaheshi nigaahein uske zehan mein taaza thi. Usne turant intercom uthaaya aur gate par tainaat guard ko bulaaya.

Jab guard andar aaya, to Meera ne dava uske havaale karte hue sakht lehje mein kaha:
Meera: "Guard, yeh dava le jao aur Sher ko de do. Uske shareer par jahan bhi chot lagi hai, vahan ise laga dena. Uska poora dhyaan rakhna aur mujhe status update dena ki ab uski tabiyat kaisi hai. Agar use aaraam nahi milta, to mujhe turant khabar karna, phir hum use dikhaane ke liye doctor ko bula lenge."

Guard: "Ji Memsahab, aap fikr na karein. Mein abhi jaakar use dekh leta hoon."

Guard ne sir jhukaaya, dava lee aur Sher ke kamre ki ore chal diya. Meera use jaate hue dekhti rahi.

Sher apne kamre mein besabri se intezaar kar raha tha. Uske dimaag mein abhi bhi vahi vaheshi khayal chal rahe the ki kaise vah aaj Meera Memsahab ke haathon ki narmi ka maza lega aur vahin se shuru karega jahan kal raat uska bhram toota tha. Vah apni jaanghon par chaadar daalkar leta hua tha, yeh sochkar ki jab Meera marham lagaayegi, to vah use ek baar phir apni giraft mein le lega.

Lekin jaise hi usne darwaaze par Memsahab ke bajaaye guard ko marham ke saath khada dekha, uska chehra gusse se tamtama utha. Use apni yojna fail hoti dikhi. Usne man hi man Meera ko gandi gaali dete hue socha, "Harami aurat... itni chaalaak nikalegi socha nahi tha. Khud aane ke bajaaye guard ko bhej diya."

Usne gusse mein guard ki taraf dekha aur karkash awaaz mein bola, "Rakh de ise vahan, mein khud laga loonga." Vah chidh raha tha ki Meera ne itni khoobsoorti se uski chaal ko maat de di thi aur khud ko uske saaye se bhi door rakha tha.

Sher [Aantarik samvaad]: "Dhat tere ki! Lagta hai kal Memsab ka hath apne lund par rakhvaakar maine jaldbaazi kar di. Sher, tune shikaar ko waqt se pehle hi chaunkaa diya, isiliye to woh kanni kaat rahi hai. Use bistar tak kheenchne ka yeh marham vala paintra to bekaar gaya."

Usne gusse mein chaadar ek taraf phenki aur uthkar baith gaya. Uski aankhon mein ek shaatir chamak ubhri.

Sher [Aantarik samvaad]: "Ab yahan pade rehne se kaam nahi chalega. Mujhe abhi uthkar vaapas kitchen ki kamaan sambhaalni hogi. Tabhi to mein us dava ko dobaara unke khaane mein mila paunga. Is baar khuraak thodi aur badha doonga… unke man mein shak ki jo deewar khadi hui hai, use ye dava ki garmi hi giraayegi. Memsab, aap kitni bhi door bhaagein, mere hath ka bana nivala to aapko khaana hi padega, aur usi mein aapki barbaadi ka raasta chhipa hai."

Sher ne apni lungi kasi aur chehre par ek jhoothi laachaari odh li. Vah langdaate hue baahar nikla taaki guards ko lage ki vah abhi bhi dard mein hai, lekin uske dimaag mein us 'khatarnaak khuraak' ko taiyaar karne ka shaitaani mansooba chal raha tha.

Usne saavdhaani se apni jeb se vahi sheeshi nikaali. Aaj uska iraada aur bhi khatarnaak tha.

Sher [Man hi man]: 'Kal raat to bas trailer tha Memsab. Aaj jab yeh double dose aapke khoon mein utrega, to aap khud apne saare kapde phaadkar mere pairon mein daal dengi. Phir dekhte hain aapki Sartaj ke prati vafa kahan jaati hai. Ek baar aapko paa loon, phir mein aapko randi bana kar hi chhodoonga. Kai log chodenge aapko, tabhi mera badla poora hoga. Aapki chode jaane ki picture banaunga aur Sartaj ko use dikhaane ke baad hi use maut ke ghaat utaarunga.'

Usne badi safaai se dava ki doguni maatra Meera ki chai mein mila di. Sher ne use acche se phent diya taaki koi shak na rahe. Vah badi saavdhaani se tray uthaakar dining table ki ore badha. Jaise hi vah kamre ke kareeb pahuncha, use Meera ki awaaz sunaai di. Vah phone par apni doctor se baat kar rahi thi.

Sher darwaaze ke paas hi thithak gaya, uske kaan Meera ki baaton par lag gaye.

Meera [Phone par, ghabraai hui awaaz mein]: "Haan doctor, mein... mein samajh nahi paa rahi hoon. Pichle kuch dino se mujhe bahut ajeeb mehsoos ho raha hai. Mera poora shareer jaise har waqt sulagta rehta hai. Mein... mein bahut zyaada uttejit mehsoos kar rahi hoon, har samay. Kya ye un davaiyon ki vajah se ho sakta hai jo aap mujhe pregnancy ke liye de rahi hain?"

Sher ke chehre par ek kameeni muskaan daud gayi. Use apni jeet ka ehsaas hone laga. Par tabhi doctor ki awaaz, jo phone se baahar tak sunaai de rahi thi, ne Sher ke hosh uda diye.

Doctor [Phone par]: "Nahi Meera, un davaiyon ka aisa koi side effect nahi hota. Pregnancy ki davanon se thakaan ya jee michlaana ho sakta hai, par aisi uttejana nahi. Mujhe darr hai ki kahin tum anjaane mein kuch aur to nahi le rahi ho. Tum kal subah clinic aa jao, mein tumhare kuch blood test karna chaahti hoon. Test ki report se shaayad saaf ho jaayega ki tumhare shareer mein kya chal raha hai."

'Test' shabd sunte hi Sher ke hath buri tarah kaampne lage. Uska maatha paseene se bheeg gaya.

Sher [Aantarik samvaad]: 'Satyaanaash! Agar kal test ho gaya aur khoon mein is dava ka pata chal gaya, to sahab meri khaal udhed denge. security officer mujhe zinda nahi chhodegi. Ye doctor to saara khel bigaad degi!'

Ghabrahat mein Sher ka santulan bigad gaya. Uske kaampte haathon se chai ki tray fisal gayi.

"Chhapaak!"

Garm chai ka pyaala farsh par girkar chaknachoor ho gaya. Chai ki chheentein aur kaanch ke tukde har taraf phail gaye. Meera ne chaunkkar phone kaata aur dining table ki taraf daudi.

Meera [Hairaani mein]: "Sher, tumhara dhyaan kahan hai? Kal hi tumhe itni chot lagi hai, kaam karne ki koi zaroorat nahi hai! Maine guard ko tumhare kamre mein bheja tha taaki tum aaraam kar sako!"

Sher ne farsh par bikhre kaanch ke tukdon ko dekhte hue chehre par ek behad maasoom aur laachaar bhaav odh liya. Usne jhukkar kaanch uthaane ka naatak kiya, jisse uski lungi thodi sarak gayi aur uski jaangh ka vah hissa dikhaai dene laga jahan usne jaanboojhkar laal nishaan bana rakhe the.

Sher [Dheemi aur dard bhari awaaz mein]: "Maafi chaahta hoon Memsab, par mera man kamre mein nahi lag raha tha. Sahab ne mujhe aapki seva ke liye rakha hai, aur jab tak mujh mein jaan hai, mein apna farz nibhaunga."

Usne ek gehri aah bhari aur langdaate hue khada hua, jaise use khade hone mein bahut takleef ho rahi ho. Meera ne use is tarah ladkhadaate dekha, to uska gussa ek pal mein pighalkar hamdardee mein badal gaya. Vah bhool gayi ki kal isi aadmi ne use galat tareeke se chhua tha. Use bas ek ghaayal naukar dikhaai de raha tha jo apni takleef ke baavajood uske liye kaam karne aaya tha.

Meera [Narmi se]: "Paagal mat bano Sher. Dekho, hath se khoon nikal raha hai. Tum fauran baitho, ye sab mein saaf kar loongi."

Meera laal saree mein uske saamne khadi thi, par Sher ki nazron mein ab hawas ke saath-saath maut ka khauf bhi saaf jhalak raha tha.

Sher [Man hi man]: 'Ab ye chai nahi, mujhe kuch aur giraana hoga... kal subah hone se pehle mujhe aisa kuch karna hoga ki Memsab ghar se baahar kadam bhi na rakh sakein. Varna kal mera ant nishchit hai.'
