Chapter 6 (Continued)

Darwaze par hui dastak se mere nange jism mein ek kapkapi ho gayi thi. Maine turant us safed kambal ko apni peeth ke upar kiya aur fir aage ki taraf kheenchte hue apne seene ko dhak liya, aur fir apne taangon ko andar modte hue apne aap ko us kambal ke andar samane diya.

Darwaza halka sa khula aur Prachi Didi ne andar ki taraf jhanka. Hum dono ki nazrein mili aur woh mujhe dhaka hua dekh kar khule darwaze ke chhote se gap se andar aa gayi aur darwaza band kar diya.

Prachi Didi poori tarah tayyar thi, unhone ek saree pehni hui thi, unhone thoda sa light makeup kar rakha tha aur unke silky baal upar se bandhe hue unke kandhon se neeche aa rahe they. Aur doosri taraf main thi - nangi, bikhri hui, bistar par aadhi dhaki hui.



Woh kuch pal darwaze ke paas ruki hui meri taraf dekhti rahi. Maine apni nazrein jhuka li. Hum dono mein se koi kuch nahi bol raha tha aur kamre mein ek ajeeb sa sannata tha jo bahar ke shor ke beech beech mein toot raha tha.

Fir woh bistar ke paas aayi aur dheere se kaha - Suhaani...

Maine kambal ko aur kas ke thaam liya.

Woh bistar par baithi nahi, bas saamne khadi rahi. Unhone dheere se pucha - Kaisi ho?

Mere sookhe gale se nikla - Theek...

Woh kuch pal meri taraf dekhti rahi, jaise soch rahi ho ki aage kya bole - Raat... raat kaisi gayi?

Unki aawaz mein kuch toh tha jaise woh sawaal puch toh rahi ho par unhe aane wale jawab se darr lag raha ho. Jaise woh jawab sunna bhi chahti thi aur nahi bhi.

Main kya kehti... kya batati unhe ki raat kaisi gayi. Sab kuch pata nahi kaise bas ho gaya tha. Par unhe main yeh sab kaise samjhati. Kya batati unhe ki unke pati ne mere jawan badan ke saath kaise kaise khela tha. Kaise woh meri tareef karte nahi ruk rahe they. Kya Didi ko yeh sab sunna acha lagta?

Maine fir se dheere se kaha - Theek...

Unhone meri baat ko repeat kiya - Theek?

Maine halke se haan mein sar hila diya.

Woh kuch der khamosh khadi rahi, aur fir boli - Haan... theek hi raha hoga...

Unhone aage kuch nahi poocha. Main unki halat samajh gayi thi. Agar meri pehli raat Aditya ke saath hui hoti toh woh mujhse detail mein sab kuch poochti - Kya kiya, kaise kiya, kaisa laga. Par is halat mein woh shayad in sab sawalon ke jawab nahi sunna chahti thi. Jo kuch pata lagta shayad unhe usse dard hi pahuchta.

Hum dono bilkul chup they. Unki nazar tabhi bistar par halke se ughade pade khoon ke nishaan par gayi, aur unhone use dekhte hi meri taraf dekha - Ohhh... hmmm... ummm... tumhara suitcase kahan hai? Ruko... main dekhti hoon.

Woh jaldi se kamre ke doosri taraf gayi aur mera suitcase lekar lauti. Unhone use zameen par litaya aur uski chain khol kar kuch samaan bahar nikalne lagi. Saree... petticoat... blouse... inner wear... makeup... towel. Sab kuch baari baari bed par rakhte hue.

Prachi - Tum naha lo... aur fir tayyar ho jayo... nahi toh agar aaram karna hai toh thoda aur aaram kar lo?

Main - Main naha leti hoon... shayad acha lagega...

Prachi - Haan... main shower chala deti hoon... paani garam hi hoga...

Didi mere inner wear aur tauliya bathroom mein le gayi aur mujhe shower chalne ki aawaz aayi.

Fir unhone bahar aate hue kaha - Maine shower chala diya hai. Tum aaram se naha kar tayyar ho jayo. Koi disturb nahi karega tumhe... main ek ghante mein aati hoon.

Maine dheere se kaha - Ji...

Unhone ek pal aur meri taraf dekha, shayad mere gale par pade nishaan ko. Aur fir tezi se mud kar kamre se bahar chali gayi aur mujhe bahar se kamra lock karne ke aawaz aayi.

Main fir se kamre mein akeli ho gayi, aadhi dhaki hui. Kuch der main bas baithi rahi, bas shoonye mein kahin ghoorte hue... bina kuch soche. Ab jaise kisi cheez ki excitement nahi ho rahi thi. Ek nayi jindagi jo aaj shuru hone wali thi... ab kafi khokhli si lag rahi thi.
