Chapter 3 : Baarish, Dard Aur Zindagi Ki Pehli Majboori
Mera poora sharir dard se toot raha tha. Mahendra aur uske aadmiyon ki maar ab apna asar dikha rahi thi. Har kadam par sharir mein ek nayi tees uthti, lekin mere paas rukne ka koi sahara nahi tha.
Upar se bahut tez baarish ho rahi thi. Aasman se girti paani ki moti-moti boondein mere chehre aur badan par pad rahi thi. Mere kapde poori tarah bheeg chuke the aur sharir ki choton par paani padne se jalan aur badh gayi thi.
Main dard se karahte hue, ladkhadate kadmon se colony ke bahar nikla.
Kisi tarah sadak tak pahuncha toh dekha ki colony ke bahar ka market aaj lagbhag 95% band tha. Baarish ki wajah se sadkein sunsaan padi thi. Kuch ek dukaanon ke shutter aadhe khule the, lekin wahan bhi koi khaas halchal nahi thi.
Mujhe apne ghaav saaf karwane aur dard kam karne ke liye dawa ki zaroorat thi.
Main idhar-udhar nazrein daudata hua ek medical store tak pahuncha. Dukaan ke andar ghuste hi maine counter ka sahara liya aur kuch pal ke liye wahin khada hokar apni saansein sambhalne laga.
Main: "Uncle, kuch aisi medicine de dijiye, jisse mere ghaav saaf ho jaayein aur dard bhi thoda kam ho sake."
Medical store wale ne mere bheege kapdon aur choton ko dekha. Usne bina zyada sawaal kiye kuch dawa aur ghaav saaf karne ka samaan nikala aur counter par rakh diya.
Medical Store Wale: "Ye lijiye. Lekin chot zyada lag rahi hai. Ek baar doctor ko bhi dikha dijiyega."
Main: "Ji, theek hai."
Maine counter par rakhi dawaon ko dekha aur phir payment karne ke liye apna mobile nikala.
Mere jeb me laga kapda water proof the aur ye lower specially papa ne order per mere liye banwaye the..
Bahar kitna bhi pani ho, jeb me rakha saman surakshit rahta hai..
Mere haath bheegne aur dard ki wajah se theek se kaam nahi kar rahe the. Maine badi mushkil se payment app khola aur paise transfer karne ki koshish ki.
Kuch seconds baad screen par message aaya—
Payment Failed!
Maine socha, shayad network ki wajah se payment nahi hui hogi. Baarish mein network ki dikkat ho sakti thi, isliye maine dobara apna account check kiya.
Lekin account ka balance dekhte hi mere hosh ud gaye.
Available Balance: ₹0.00
Main kuch pal tak mobile ki screen ko dekhta raha. Mujhe apni aankhon par yakeen nahi ho raha tha.
Main (man hi man): "Ye kaise ho sakta hai? Mere account mein toh paise the!"
Maine transaction history check ki. Lekin us waqt mere dimaag mein ak din pahle ki ek baat achanak bijli ki tarah kaundhi.
Tau Mahendra ne mujhse ek blank cheque par sign karwaye the.
Us waqt maine un par bharosa karke bina kuch soche-samjhe sign kar diye the.
Aakhir wo mere pita ke bhai the. Maine kabhi socha bhi nahi tha ki wo mere saath aisa kuch kar sakte hain.
Lekin ab saari baatein ek-ek karke samajh aane lagi thi.
Main (man hi man): "Saale Mahendra! Tune mujhe barbaad karne mein koi kasar nahi chhodi. Blank cheque par sign karwakar mere saare paise bhi nikaal liye!"
Mera gussa saatvein aasman par tha, lekin us waqt main kar bhi kya sakta tha?
Main wahin khada khud ko kosne laga.
Main (man hi man): "Kya bewakoofi ki maine! Pita ji ne zindagi bhar jin rishton ki izzat karna sikhaya, maine bhi unhi par aankh band karke bharosa kar liya. Ek baar bhi nahi socha ki blank cheque par sign karna kitni badi galti ho sakti hai!"
Maine ek lambi saans li aur apna wallet nikaala. Mujhe laga shayad credit card se payment ho jaayegi.
Wallet kholkar dekha toh usmein Papa ka credit card tha, jo mere istemaal ke liye linked tha.
Maine card nikaala aur counter par rakh diya.
Main: "Uncle, is card se payment karke dekhiye."
Medical store wale ne card machine mein lagaya. Kuch pal baad usne screen dekhi aur meri taraf card badha diya.
Medical Store Wale: "Sorry, dost. Ye card decline ho raha hai."
Maine hairani se uski taraf dekha.
Phir achanak yaad aaya ki Papa ke jaane ke baad unka account aur usse linked services block ho chuki thi. Shayad isi wajah se ye card bhi ab kisi kaam ka nahi raha tha.
Ab mere paas koi doosra raasta nahi tha.
Maine apne wallet ko check kiya usme mujhe apne id card's ke beech 100 rupaye ka ek note mila.
Bas, mere paas kul jama punji wahi thi—₹100.
Maine note nikaalkar counter par rakh diya.
Main: "Uncle, in sau rupayon mein jo zaroori dawa aur ghaav par lagane ke liye cream aa sakti hai, woh de dijiye."
Medical store wale ne kuch pal mujhe dekha. Phir usne dawaon mein se kuch cheezein alag ki aur unki keemat sau rupaye ke andar rakhi.
Maine paise diye aur dawaon ka packet utha liya.
Jab main un sau rupayon ko kharch kar raha tha, tab mujhe ek baat ka zara bhi ehsaas nahi hua tha ki maine subah se kuch khaya tak nahi tha.
Pet mein bhookh thi, lekin dard aur pareshani ke beech uska ehsaas jaise kahin dab gaya tha.
Mujhe ye bhi yaad nahi aaya ki wahi sau rupaye shayad kisi chhoti si dukaan se kuch khane ke liye kaam aa sakte the.
Us waqt mere liye bas itna zaroori tha ki kisi tarah apne ghaav saaf kar sakoon aur dard ko thoda kam kar sakoon.
Mene wahi medical wale se pani mangalsutra aur pain killer wagera kha lo..
Fir dawai ka packet haath mein lekar main medical store se bahar nikla.
Baarish ab bhi utni hi tez ho rahi thi. samne mujhe ak shade najar aaya jaha bethne ki jagah thi..
Main uss shade ki chhat ke neeche kuch pal ruka, ghav saaf kiye aur phir sadak ki taraf dekhne laga.
Jeb mein ab ek rupaya bhi nahi tha. Bank account khaali, credit card band aur sar par na ghar ki chhat thi, na kisi apne ka sahara.
Subah tak main ek aise ghar ka beta tha, jahan paison aur suvidhaon ki kami nahi thi.
Aur ab shaam hone se pehle hi main sadak par khada tha—bheega hua, zakhmi aur bilkul khaali haath.
Maine apne haath mein pakde dawaon ke packet ko dekha aur aankhein band kar li.
Main (man hi man): "Papa, aapke jaane ke baad sab kuch itni jaldi kaise badal gaya? Jis duniya ko main apna samajhta tha, aaj usi duniya mein mere paas dawa kharidne ke baad khane tak ke paise nahi bache."
Meri aankhon mein aansu aa gaye. Baarish ki boondein un aansuon ke saath milkar mere chehre se behne lagin.
Lekin main jaanta tha ki ab mujhe khud hi apne liye khada hona padega.
Kyunki aaj mere paas na paisa tha, na ghar aur na hi koi aisa insaan, jiske saamne main apna dard bayaan kar sakoon.
Aaj pehli baar mujhe samajh aaya ki insaan ko todne ke liye hamesha uske sharir par vaar karna
zaroori nahi hota. Kabhi-kabhi usse uska bharosa, uski jama-punji aur uske apne log chheen lena hi kaafi hota hai.
