GRUH PRAVESH KE AGLI SUBAH JAB MANSI NE CHAMPA KO CHARGE KIYA KEE USNE REKHA KO KYO NAHI BULAYA TO MUNIM NE MANSI KO ANT SANT KAHAA, GHAR SE NIKAL JAANE KE LIYE KAHA. CHAMPA KO DHAMKI DEKAR MANSI GHAR SE NIKLI TO USKE PEECHHE USKI TEENO SAHELIA BHEE BAAHAR CHALI GAEE. TABBASOOM KE PUCHHNE PAR EK MAID NE BATAAYA KEE USNE SUBAH SUBAH MANU KO EK BAHUT HEE KHUBSURAT AURAT KE SAATH CAR MEY BAITH GAAO KE BAAHAR JAATE DEKHA THAA.
Maid kee baat sunn Mamta ne kaha,
“ haa Poonam ne kaha thaa kee wo subah subah hee chali jaayegi, lagta hai wo Manu ko saath le jaane ke liye hee aaee thee, LEKIN manu ko bolkar jaana chaahiye thaa . “
Mamta kee baat sun-te hee Mamta kee nanad ne kaha ,
“ dulhan ( Mamta ) hum bhee jaate hai, Nargis se thodi der milkar hum wapas chale jaayenge, chalo Akbar. “
Champa ne uthkar Tabbu ka haath pakda, uski aankhe aansuo se bhari thee, dabdabaa rahi thee,
“ Tabbu bahan, tumse to baat bhee nahi huee, pahli baar aaee ho, kuchh din ruk jaao , phir jaana. Mansi mere bina nahi rah sakti, uska gussa kam hoga to wo wapas aa jaayegi aur Manu bhee juldi aa jaayega. “
Lekin Tabbu ko Mansi nahi Manu chahiye thaa…
“ Champa ji, mujhe Mansi nahi Manu chahiye, Manu kolkatta chala gaya to ab hum yanha rahkar kya karenge, wo rahta to ek- do din kya mahino yanha rah jaati, hum jaate hai…”
Tabbu kee baat ne sab ko chaunka diya..sab samajh gaye kee , Manu ne isse bhee chod liya hai aur apna randi bana liya hai...Pinaz ne apni maalkin, Altaaf kee ammi ke kaano mey kaha,
“ Manu ne iss sati savitri aurat ko bhee randi bana diya…”
Mamta ne bhee nanad ko rokne kee koshish kee lekin wo nahi maani..Tabbu apne husband ke saath mandir aa gaee…
Idhar Altaaf aur uske parents bhee Mamta ko le jaane kee jidd karne lage. Mamta ko Manu kee kasam yaad aa gaee, Champa ne bhee bahut request kiya...aur kaha,
“ Mansi ghar chhod kar chali gaee hai, kab aayegi maalum nahi, ab agar Mamta bhee chali jaayegi to mai marr jaaungi…”
Altaaf maan gaya aur bola kee ek mahina baad wapas aakar Mamta ko le jaayega...lunch ke baad wey sabhi chale gaye.
Ghar mey sirf Champa, Mamta aur munim rah gaye 2 naee maid ke saath. Bahar Mansi ke aadmi safai kar rahe theye...ek aadmi andar aaya aur kaha,
“ Chaudhrani ne kaha thaa kee aapke purane makaan se saara saaman yanha laana hai, chaliye bataaeeye kya kya laana hai…”
“kaun Chaudhrani “ Champa ne puchha.
Uss aadmi kee baat sunn Mamta ne Champa kee oar dekha aur subah se pahli baar muskurate huye boli,
“ maa, chaudhrani yani apni Mansi, chaudhry ji kee beti..”
Munim ne kuchh kahna chaha to Champa ne jor se dapat diya..
“ khabardaar , ab agar mujhse kabhi baat kee to, tere liye Champa marr gaee..”
Lekin Mamta ne munim se kaha kee wo purane ghar kaa saara saamaan yanha shift karwa le…
Udhar teeno ladkiyo ne socha kee Mansi aur Phulwa mandir gaee hogi iss liye wey sab bhee wonhi chali gaee, lekin Mansi wanha nahi thee. Seema mana karti rah gaee lekin Sapna ne Nargis aur Uday ko sabkuchh bataya aur kaha ,
“ pandit ji, mai samajhti thee kee mera baap hee sabse ghatia aadmi hai lekin ye munim to uss se bhee bada harami hai, sach bolu to saala aadmi hai hee nahi, chhakka hai….gadha hai…”
Nargis ko bhee baate sunkar dukh huaa. Usne ladkiyo se kaha kee shayad Mansi apne ghar gaee hai lekin wo mandir jarur aayegi...teeno wonhi mandir mey ruk gaee.
Phulwa ko lekar Mansi apne ghar, maa ke paas gaee. Usne maa ko jhagra kee kuchh baat nahi bataee, Nasta karme ke baad akele Vinod ke ghar aaee. Phulwa ko mandir jaane ke liye kaha. Vinod apni maa ke saath Mansi ko lekar sub registrar ke office le gaya . Mansi ne bahut mana kiya lekin Vinod ne pahle hee sab arrangement kar rakha thaa, apna gaaon kaa ghar aur ghar ke aas paas kee saari jamin (25 acre se jyada) Mansi ke naam kiya, documents registered huye aur baad mey Mansi sabko lekar mandir aaee.
Tab tak Nargis ke maa baabuji, Altaf, uske parents aur Pinaz bhee wonhi aa gaye theye...Vinod aur uski maa ko unn sabke saath chhod Mansi apne room mey aaee, kuchh hisaab kitaab lagaya aur ek bag mey apne trunk se nikaal kar rupya bhada . Wo bag lekar wapas Nargis ke paas aaee. Ek ghante se jyada samay tak sabse khub hans kar, mazaak karte huye baat kee. Jinhone subah Mansi kaa gussa dekha thaa unhe biswas nahi huaa kee yah wohi ladki hai..
Kareeb 3 baje sabhi chale gaye. Mansi bhee wo rupyo se bhara bag lekar Vinod ke saath uske ghar aaee. Pahle to Sudha ( Vinod’s wife ) ko ek se badhkar ek gandi gaali dee aur kaha,
“ tu kaisee gharwali hai kutia, tera gharwala dunia kee sabse badi haramjaadi randi ke upar laakho phenk raha hai, uss kutia ko chodne ke liye apna itna bada haveli, jamin jyadaad de diya aur tu kutia kee pilli uski gaand maarne ke badle muskura rahi hai…’
Vinod, uski maa aur bahan pahle bhee Mansi kee gaali sunn chuke theye lekin maid Maya aur Sudha ke liye yah pahla mauka thaa…
“ chee tu kaisee ladki hai, koi ladki eise gaali bakti hai kya, koi nahi bolta aur jo bhai tujhe aankho par bitha kar rakhta hai uske liye eisa bol rahi hai.,.”
Sudha ne kaha aur Mansi ne usse kas kar galey lagaya...uske pet ko sahlaate huye kaha,
“ bhabhi, tu sach bahut masoom hai, Mamta jaisee kutia kee sabse badhia saheli hokar bhee tu itni badhia kyo hai, tera gharwala to mujhe nahi chodega lekin tere pet mey jo beta hai, mera bhanza hai wo mujhe jarur chodega….”
Sudha ne jhempte huye jabaab diya
“ kisne kaha pet mey bachcha hai, abhi kuchh nahi hai..tuney itna khilaaya pilaaya kee pet phul gayaa hai.lekin tu itna ganda kyo bol rahi hai ?.
Mansi kee baat sunn sabhi sharamaate huye ek dusre ko dekhne lage lekin Maya ne himmat kar kaha,
“ didi, aap kaise itni gandi baate kar sakti ho...baap re hum to soch bhee nahi sakte….”
“ soch nahi sakti lekin apne bhai se chudwa sakti ho….”
Mansi kee baat sunn Maya daurti huee room se baahar nikal gaee. Sab ne saath khana khaya. Uske baad Vinod bhee apni maa, wife aur bahan ke saath jaaney ke liye nikle. Sabke bahut mana karne par bhee, Vinod aur uski maa kee daant dapat ke baad bhee Mansi ne rupyo se bhara bag Sudha ko diya…
“ bhabhi, apni ek nanad ke taraf se chhota saa bhent,, please mana mut karna. “
Kisee ne kholkar nahi dekha lekin bag mey jo rupye theye unse Vinod kee haveli se bada makaan bun sakta thaa.
Mansi bahut roee, rukne ke liye bahut kaha lekin Vinod ne kaha kee jaana bahut jaruri hai,..Vinod kee maa ne Mansi ko bahut dulaar kiya aur kaha,
“ beti, tu Vinod ko bhai aur mujhe maa samajhti hai lekin asal mey tu hum sab kee maalkin hai, hum to ab shayad gaaon nahi aayenge lekin tu kolkatta aakar hum sab se milti rahna..”
.aur Mansi ne rotey huye kaha
“ maa, mai buss tumhari beti hu, Vinod aur Bina kee bahan, Sudha kee badmas nanad hu buss aur kuchh nahi, tum logo ke alawa mujhe koi aur pyar nahi karta, koi mujhe saath nahi rakhna chahta, koi mere saath nahi rahna chahta…”
Mansi ne indirectly sab kaha lekin yah nahi kaha kee usne Champa kaa ghar hamesha ke liye chhod diya hai. Rotey huye Mansi ne sabko bidaa kiya ...Bhuvan aur Maya se kahkar kee ghar ko theek se saaf kar de aur khane peene kaa jo saaman bacha hai, jitna chahe le jaaye aur baaki gareebo mey baant de .
“ Bhuvan , jo paka (cooked) khana hai wo sab gareebo mey baant do aur jo kachcha saamaan hai usse badhia se store kar do. “
Wonha se Mansi chhoti bahu ke office mey aaee. Usse dekh bahu ghabra gaee , usse laga kee shayad Heera ne supari baali baat Mansi ko bata dee ho…. Uska husband bhee khuchh ghante pahle kolkatta chala gaya thaa.
“ bhabhi, juldi se apni randi nanad Rekha ko phone lagao, saali bahut bhao maarti hai, aaj uska gaand maarungi…”
Bahu kaa maatha bhanna gaya...wo kabhi eisee baate nahi karti ..
Urgent trunk call book kiya, Rekha line par aaee aur receiver Mansi ko diya.
Mansi ------- Rekha didi, aap maharani hai, aap ne ek gareeb ladki kee baat nahi maani, maine aapko bulaya , kitna request kiya lekin aap nahi aaee…
Rekha ---------- tu hoti kaun hai bulane waali, tu bhale hee dunia ko buddhu banaye, mai jaanti hu kee tu uss naamard munim kee beti nahi hai aur naa tu Champa kee bahu hai, tu buss mere Manu kee randi hai ….phir ek randi, tere bulane par mai dusre ke ghar ke gruh pravesh mey mai kyo aau….
Bolkar Rekha ne phone rakh diya. Mansi ko dukh huaa , bahu ne kaha ,
“ wo Rekha hai hee ghamdi, kyo nahi aaee wo..?
Mansi ne bahu ko sab baat bataaee aur bahu ne surprisingly kaka,
“ Rekha ke jamin par ghar bana, Rekha ke baap ne saara paisa diya, Rekha ko chod chod kar barbaad kiya aur uss harami munim ne Rekha ko hee nahi bulaya. Champa didi ne ye sab bardaast kaise kiya, usne bhee apni betio ko nahi bulaya...Bura mut maan na , mujhe samajh nahi aata kee tere jaisee ladki uss munim jaise ghatia aadmi ke saath rahti kaise hai…! “
Mansi ne bahu kee baat kaa koi jabab nahi diya. Wo kaise kahti kee wo uss ghar mey sirf Manu ke liye rahti hai, lekin kaha,
“ bhabhi, aap Rekha ko apne jaisa kadak aur bindaas kyo nahi banati, aap sasural mey rani bunkar rahti hai, ghar ke loag hee nahi, gaaon waale sabhi aapko asal maharani samajhte hai aur Rekha didi maharani hokar bhee ek gulaam kee tarah rahti hai, “
Mansi ne bahu ko bataya kee Uday ne dekha kee kaise ek ladki Mayuri sabko, Rekha ko bhee anguli par nachati hai, didi apni marji se naa kanhi jaa sakti hai naa kisee se mil sakti hai, Aayush wonha 5 mahine se hai aur uss ladki Mayuri ne usse Rekha se ek baar bhee milne nahi diya , uske room mey jaane nahi diya,
“ bhabhi, aap kuchh apna gyan do usse, Rekha ghar kee badi bahu hai, naukrani nahi..bhabhi aap abhi uss se baat karo , apna example do….”
Bahu Rekha se baat nahi karna chahti thee lekin Mansi ke jidd kar ne par Bahu ne phir line lagaya, Rekha line par aaee…
Rekha ….---------- Hello,
Bahu --------- Rekha , mai teri chhoti bhabhi , please line mut kaatna , tujhse jaruri baat karni hai….
Rekha. ------ kya, kaun see baat. !
Bahu ----------- ( jhuth boli ) Mansi bahut dukhi hokar yanha se abhi gaee...tu nahi aaee to nahi aaee , lekin tuney Aayush ko kyo nahi aane diya, 5 mahine se uss ladki ke saath hai, Mansi kitni dukhi hai…..
Rekha ---- to mai kya karun , Mansi ne khud bheja thaa aur usse mai ne nahi meri dushman Mayuri ne rakha hai, mujhse ek baar bhee naa milne diya hai aur naa baat karne deti hai .
Bahu ------- Tum itni kamjor hogi , mai nahi jaanti thee….mere saamne to bahut bhao maarti ho , wonha kya huaa , bakri kyo bun gaee ?
Bahu ne phone par hee Rekha ko samjhaya kee bahu kya hoti hai , bahu kee kitni shaan hoti hai. Bahu ne apna example diya kee jub Rekha ne ussey Kolkatta jaane ko kaha thaa to bahu ne kya jabaab diya thaa. Bahu ne aur bhee bahut kuchh , hindi mey, english mey samjhaya. Mansi chup chaap sunti rahi…
Bahu -------- -mai to ghar kee chhoti bahu hu, randi hu , phir bhee sasural mey shaan se rahti hu, jo marji hoti hai karti hu, koi chuu bhee nahi kar sakta lekin tu to ghar kee badi bahu hai, asal maalkin hai...Mayuri to nanad hai, wo bhee apni nanad nahi, tu chahe to apni saas sasur ko bhee apni jutee ke neeche rakh sakti hai jaise mai rakhti hu , meri pyari nanad Mansi jaisa sherni bunkar raho, Mamta jaisa ghatia randi nahi…..
Rekha ne shaanti se sunaa aur finally kaha,
“ bhabhi, tum bahut hee achchee ho, ab mai bhee teri jaisee ban-ne kee koshish karungi...aur haa Mansi se meri taraf se maafi maang lena, Aayush ke liye bhee aur gruh pravesh par uske invitation par nahi aaee iss liye bhee. uss beti chod ( munim) ne nahi bulaya to kaise aati. ”
Bahu - nanadji, bahut din ho gaye tujhse, apni dushman nanad se jhagra kiye, juldi aa jaa, tera munim tera wait kar raha hai…..
Rekha -------- bhabhi , aaj meri samajh mey aaya….tuney uss betichod munim ko kyo maara, office se kyo nikala, tujhe sirf 2 thappar hee nahi 10 jutaa maarna chahiye thaa …. bhabhi juldi aaungi, apni paagal nanad ko maaf kar do.
Bahu ------ jaldi aa banno...mai bhee bahut akeli hu…
Bahu ne receiver rakh diya aur Mansi kee oar dekha.
“ thank you bhabhi thank you very much….mai jaati hu…”
Mansi uthne waali thee kee bahu ne Mansi kaa haath pakad kar bell press kiya, peon daur kar aaya. Bahu ne usse chai, snacks , sweets laane ke liye kaha. Wo chala gaya, Tabhi Lata office mey aaee, Usne bahu se kaha,
“ didi, Champa didi sethji ke paas baithee hai, sethji aapko bula rahe hai.”
Bahu uthi aur Mansi ko baithne ke liye bol Lata ke saath chali gaee. Lata ne Mansi se koi baat nahi kee. Sethji ne bahu ko dekhte hee kaha,
“ bahu, tum hee samjhao, ye Champa naye ghar ke jameen kee kimat aur ghar mey jo kharcha aaya hai wo sab dene aaee hai….”
Pahle Mansi aaee, wo office pahli baar aaee thee aur ab Champa aaee ghar aur jamin kaa kimat dene, jarur koi khaash baat huee hai…
Bahu ne socha . Usne aur sethji ne bahut samjhane kee koshish kee, kaha kee Rekha ne jamin gift mey diya hai aur sethji ne apni marji se ghar banbaya hai, wey kimat nahi le sakte . Bahut kahne par bhee jub sethji aur bahu nahi maane to Champa ne Mansi kaa naam liye bina subah waali dhamki suna dee…
“ agar aap loag pura paisa nahi lenge to hum ghar ko tod denge aur apne purane ghar mey hee rahenge…”
Champa kee dhamki sunn bahu ne nod kiya, Lata aur Rajni ne milkar hisaab lagaya aur Champa ko dono land aur construction kaa cost bataya. Sethji ne jitni kimat bataaee , Champa ne uss se ek laakh jyada diya…aur request kiya,
“ abhi to pakka receipt de dijiye lekin ek hufte ke andar jamin aur ghar hamare naam karwa dijiye….”
Bahu ne Champa se nahi kaha kee Mansi uske office mey baithee hai lekin bahu ke office wapas jaane ke baad receipt dete samay Lata ne Champa se kaha,
“ didi, Mansi ek ghante se chhoti maalkin ke office mey baithee hai , kya huaa , tum maa beti mey kuchh jhagra huaa hai kya….?”
Lata kee baat sunn Champa turant receipt lekar bahu ke office mey aaee aur Mansi kaa head sahlaate huye kaha,
“ beti, le dekh receipt, maine jamin aur ghar kaa sab paisa de diya hai, 7-8 din mey sabhi kaagjaat bhee mil jaayenge, ab wo ghar apne paise kaa hai, ab gussa thuk de, tu to usse ( munim ) jaanti hai kitna bebkoof hai, chal beti , tere bina kuchh badhia nahi lagta hai , teri sabhi sahelia, seema bhee chali gaee...mai bahut akeli ho gaee hu…”
Mansi ne receipt ko ek jhalak dekha , uth khadi huee aur kaha,
“ ab to mai uss ghar mey kabhi nahi jaa sakti, tu chahe to mere saath rah.”
Bolkar Mansi office se baahar nikli aur mandir kee taraf jaane lagi.
Idhar Champa ne bahut dukhi hokar subah waali sab baat chhoti bahu ko bataya..yah bhee kaha kee Poonam ke saath Manu waapas Kolkatta chala gaya hai .
Manu gaaon mey nahi hai , yah sunkar bahu kaa gaal
gusse se tamtama gaya...wo khadi ho gaee aur gusse se tamtamaate huye boli ,
“ didi, ab agar wo tera harami beta gaaon mey dikha to mai khud uski jaan le lungi….saala mujhe maarna chaahta hai to ek baar mey hee gala dabaakar kyo nahi maar deta hai , itna tarpaata kyo hai...ab mai iss gaaon mey nahi rah sakti …”
Bahu ek chooti bachchee kee tarah khub loudly roney lagi , Champa ne uska head apni chuchio par dabaya, bahu ke roney kaa awaaj sunn sabhi daure huye aaye….
Idhar sabhi bahu ko sambhalne mey jut gaye aur udhar Mansi mandir pahuchi...Nargis se lekar sabhi ko galey lagaya, Uday ko bhee ..Ussey bilkul khabar nahee thee kee Vinod apna makaan uske naam karna chahta hai….bhale hee makaan kee kimat se jyada rupya Vinod / Sudha ko diya , Vinod aur uski family kaa Mansi ke liye pyar ke saamne wo kuchh nahi thaa…
Seema aur Phulwa bhee Mansi ko itna khush dekh surprised nahi shocked thee.
“ kya huaa didi, bahut khush ho, jiju ( Aayush ) wapas aa gaye kya…? “
Seema ne puchha aur Mansi ne useey kamad se pakad hawa mey uthate huye kaha,
“ banno , ab hum kisee dharam-saala mey nahi, apne ghar mey rahenge, hamara apna ghar hai...aaj raat se hee hum Vinod bhaiya waale ghar mey rahenge, ab se wo ghar mera, nahi hum sabka hai…”
Mansi kee baate sunn sabhi ek dusre kee oar dekhne lage. Mansi ne sabko registration / transfer kaa document dikhaya.
“ hamare ghar se bada makaan iss ilake mey kisee aur kaa nahi hai, seth ji ka bhee nahi.”
Kisee ko ab bhee biswas nahi ho raha thaa.
Arti huee . Kisne khabar phailaaee maalum nahi lekin gaaon waalo ko khabar ho chuki thee kee Mansi aur uski team ne Champa kaa ghar chhor diya hai, kaee logo ne Mansi se puchha lekin wo baat ko taal gaee.
Lekin Dada, Anil aur gang ke kuchh logo ne Mansi ko badhai dee kee unhone Champa aur Mamta kaa ghar chhod diya...Anil phir Mansi ke saath raat gujarna chahta thaa lekin Mansi ne mana kar diya.
Bikas wapas aa gaya thaa, wo ab kuchh din Bikas ke saath masti chahti thee.
Maya aur Bhuvan bhee aaye aur Mansi ne Maya se kaha,
“ Vinod bhaiya teri bahut shikayat kar rahe theye...tuney unka bilkul dhyaan nahi rakha.”
Maya yah sunkar udas ho gaee.
“ didi, wey sab to kitne khush theye, unhone humey inaam bhee diya aur aap.”
Mansi ne uski baat kaat-te huye kaha ,
“ tujhe iski saza milegi ...ab tujhe hamesha ussee ghar mey rahna hoga, din raat lekin akele, tera ye yaar ( brother ) Bhuvan tere saath nahi rahega.”
Mansi kee baat sunn muskurate huye Mansi kaa feet chhune ke liye jhuki lekin Mansi ne beech mey rok diya aur kaha ..
“ chhoti bahan ko paap mey mut daalo, tu meri bhee didi hai aur inn sab ladkiyo kee bhee, ye teeno mere liye bahut kimti hai, inhe sambhal kar rakhna”
Mansi ne apni teeno sahelio , Seema, Sapna aur Ratna ko Maya se milaya.
“ ladkiyo , ye hum sabki Maya didi hai, ye bhee hamare saath hee rahegi. “
Mansi ne Bhuvan ko kuchh instruction diya. Pahle wo Mansi ke ghar jaakar Urmila se kaha kee Mansi ne dono ( wife husband) ko Vinod ke ghar bulaya hai , raat kaa khana wonhi hoga...wonha se Champa ke ghar gaya.
Champa se kaha kee Mansi didi ne apna aur apni sahelio kaa saara saaman ( clothes, books etc ) mangaya hai...Naa Champa ne puchha aur naa Bhuvan ne bataya kee ab se Mansi apne naye ghar Vinod kee haveli mey rahegi...Champa aur Mamta ne milkar, jitna possible thaa , chaaro ladkiyo kaa saaman Bhuvan ko diya , wo sab lekar Vinod ke ghar pahucha.
Wonha mandir se sabhi, Nargis aur Uday bhee mausi ke saath aa gaye theye , Urmila bhee apne husband ke saath aaye.Mansi ne Urmila se kaha ,
“ maa, ab se, abhi se ye apna ghar hai, hum sab yanhi rahenge.”
Usne document apne father ( chaudhry) ko dikhaya aur document dekhne ke baad Chaudhary ne dheere se kaha,
“ Mansi, iss ilake kee sabse amir hai...naa kisee ke paas itna property hai aur naa cash. “
Chaudhary ko Mansi ke loot ke maal kee khabar nahi thee…
Maya aur Phulwa ne milkar khana banaya, sabne khaya piya aur khaane ke baad Uday apni bibi aur mausi ko lekar wapas mandir chala gaya. Baaki sab wonhi soye, koi chudai nahi.aur agli subah wo huaa jo last 8-10 saalo mey kabhi nahi huaa,
Mansi sabse late, sabke baad soo kar uthee...kareeb 9 baje….
Kisee ne bhee Mansi ko pahle kabhi itna khush nahi dekha thaa.
“
Manu apni Sabbo kee haalat dekh bahut dukhi ho gaya. Wo kuchh bhee khana pina nahi chahta thaa lekin Saumya ke jidd par khaya, piya aur doctor se jidd kar Sabbo ke paas, ek chair par baitha raha.Shaam ko Dr Zeenat aaee lekin akele nahi Babli ke saath. Dono Manu se galey milna chahti thee lekin Manu apni jagah se nahi utha. Jab Zeenat saamne aaee to sirf itna kaha,
“ Rani, aapne meri Sabbo ka dhyan nahi rakha…”
Tab Zeenat apne ko nahi rok paaee, Manu ko tightly pakad roney lagi.
“ haa Manu, humse bahut badi galti ho gaee. Hum teri Sabbo ko nahi samajh paaye. “
Sabina kee aur bhee kaee friends , mostly females aaye, Chitra, Swati , Manju bhee aaye lekin Manu ne kisee se ek bhee baat nahi kee. Manu wednesday ko aaya thaa, saturday aa gaya . Sabina ke condition mey koi change nahi aaya. Manu bhee ghar ke logo ke saath khata peeta thaa lekin buss dikhane ke liye. Doctors ke mana karne par bhee Sabina ke hee room mey neeche floor par bed bichhakar soya. Saumya kaise chhodti, wo bhee Manu ke saath hee soee.
Bade bade doctors aaye lekin kisee ne koi ummeed nahi dikhaee . City ke sabse famous physician ne conclude kiya,
“ patient ko koi bahut bada mental setback huaa hai, koi physical problem nahi hai, koi bhee doctors kuchh nahi kar sakta hai…”
Manu sote jaagte pray karta raha aur uske bahut jidd karne par doctors ne Manu ko permission de diya kee wo Sabina ke hands aur face ko touch kar sakta hai, sahla sakta hai..
Aur Manu ussee samay se Sabina ke haatho, lips, cheeks , forehead aur head ko sahlane laga. Kaee loag aaye, uss se baat karne kee koshish kee lekin Manu ne ek shabd bhee nahi kaha, sahlaate sahlaate wo continuously murmur karta raha, beech beech mey Sabbo ke kaan mey kuchh bolta bhee jaata thaa. Sabhi ne , Saumya ne, Poonam ne jidd kee lekin Manu ne saturday morning se naa kuchh khaya naa piya. Jub doctors , nurse pipe badalte theye , dress badalte theye tabhi Manu bahar jaata thaa, baaki samay Sabbo ke bagal mey bhaith sahlata raha…
Kareeb 24 ghante gujar gaye, sunday morning ho gaya aur nurse ne ek bahut hee faint awaaj suni ,
“ Manu, manu, manu….” phir chuppi….
Nurse ne yah baat ghar ke logo ko bataaee aur turant apne doctor ko phone kiya,
“ sir, patient has uttered a word ‘ Manu ‘ few times…”
Turant hee doctor aaya aur usne dekha kee Manu patient ke forehead, hands aur cheeks ko kiss kar raha hai...aur Manu ke bhagwan aur guruji ne Manu ke prayer ko accept kar liya….
Sabbo ne aankh khola, uski nazar Manu se mili, lips par expression change huaa...aur usne dheere se kaha…
“ Manu, mera pyara manu…”
Phir aankh bund kar lee. Doctors ne pulse, heart beat, temperature check kiya aur Surana se kaha,
“ hopefully now she will recover fast….I think danger has passed. “
Doctor nurse ko kuchh instructions dekar chala gaya. Saumya ne Manu se bahut request kiya aur daant kar kaha,
“ teri Sabbo to ab theek ho jaayegi lekin teri ye gharwali, tere bachche kee maa marr jaayegi...maine bhee kal subah se paani kee ek boond bhee nahi lee...mai marr jaaungi…”
Manu utha to nahi lekin ek haath se Saumya kaa haath pakad kar apne bagal mey bithaya aur kaha,
“ naa tu maregi naa ye meri sabse badi dushman Sabbo, tum dono mujhe maar kar hee marogi…”
Sabbo ne aankhe kholi aur head hilaya …
“ Manu, tu kab aaya…? Saumya kuchh khila pila, bahut bukh lagi hai….”
5 seconds mey khatam honeye waala sentence complete karne mey Sabbo ko ek minutes se jyada samay laga. uske forehead par pasine kee boonde aa gaee.
“ madam please get some lemonade..”
Nurse ne room mey khadi Poonam se kaha..Poonam daur kar nimbu paani lekar aaee, nurse pilana chahti thee lekin Sabbo ne head hilaya. Nurse ne spoon aur glass Manu ko diya. Manu ne 4 spoon pilaya aur Sabbo ne phir aankh bund kar lee. Lekin uske face kaa expression change ho gaya thaa.
Nurse ne Manu ke shoulder ko pat kiya aur kaha,
“ sir , your prayer has worked, now your girl is out of danger. She will regain total consciousness in few hours. “
Nurse ne Manu se request kiya,
“ both of you please break your fast, I am assuring you , she is all right now but your wife ( Saumya) may get unconscious now. “
Nurse kee baar sunn Manu ne sabke saamne Saumya ko chuma, lips aur cheeks ko…
‘ chal meri maa, tu marr jaayegi to phir kaun mere bachche kee maa banegi…”
Maid kee baat sunn Mamta ne kaha,
“ haa Poonam ne kaha thaa kee wo subah subah hee chali jaayegi, lagta hai wo Manu ko saath le jaane ke liye hee aaee thee, LEKIN manu ko bolkar jaana chaahiye thaa . “
Mamta kee baat sun-te hee Mamta kee nanad ne kaha ,
“ dulhan ( Mamta ) hum bhee jaate hai, Nargis se thodi der milkar hum wapas chale jaayenge, chalo Akbar. “
Champa ne uthkar Tabbu ka haath pakda, uski aankhe aansuo se bhari thee, dabdabaa rahi thee,
“ Tabbu bahan, tumse to baat bhee nahi huee, pahli baar aaee ho, kuchh din ruk jaao , phir jaana. Mansi mere bina nahi rah sakti, uska gussa kam hoga to wo wapas aa jaayegi aur Manu bhee juldi aa jaayega. “
Lekin Tabbu ko Mansi nahi Manu chahiye thaa…
“ Champa ji, mujhe Mansi nahi Manu chahiye, Manu kolkatta chala gaya to ab hum yanha rahkar kya karenge, wo rahta to ek- do din kya mahino yanha rah jaati, hum jaate hai…”
Tabbu kee baat ne sab ko chaunka diya..sab samajh gaye kee , Manu ne isse bhee chod liya hai aur apna randi bana liya hai...Pinaz ne apni maalkin, Altaaf kee ammi ke kaano mey kaha,
“ Manu ne iss sati savitri aurat ko bhee randi bana diya…”
Mamta ne bhee nanad ko rokne kee koshish kee lekin wo nahi maani..Tabbu apne husband ke saath mandir aa gaee…
Idhar Altaaf aur uske parents bhee Mamta ko le jaane kee jidd karne lage. Mamta ko Manu kee kasam yaad aa gaee, Champa ne bhee bahut request kiya...aur kaha,
“ Mansi ghar chhod kar chali gaee hai, kab aayegi maalum nahi, ab agar Mamta bhee chali jaayegi to mai marr jaaungi…”
Altaaf maan gaya aur bola kee ek mahina baad wapas aakar Mamta ko le jaayega...lunch ke baad wey sabhi chale gaye.
Ghar mey sirf Champa, Mamta aur munim rah gaye 2 naee maid ke saath. Bahar Mansi ke aadmi safai kar rahe theye...ek aadmi andar aaya aur kaha,
“ Chaudhrani ne kaha thaa kee aapke purane makaan se saara saaman yanha laana hai, chaliye bataaeeye kya kya laana hai…”
“kaun Chaudhrani “ Champa ne puchha.
Uss aadmi kee baat sunn Mamta ne Champa kee oar dekha aur subah se pahli baar muskurate huye boli,
“ maa, chaudhrani yani apni Mansi, chaudhry ji kee beti..”
Munim ne kuchh kahna chaha to Champa ne jor se dapat diya..
“ khabardaar , ab agar mujhse kabhi baat kee to, tere liye Champa marr gaee..”
Lekin Mamta ne munim se kaha kee wo purane ghar kaa saara saamaan yanha shift karwa le…
Udhar teeno ladkiyo ne socha kee Mansi aur Phulwa mandir gaee hogi iss liye wey sab bhee wonhi chali gaee, lekin Mansi wanha nahi thee. Seema mana karti rah gaee lekin Sapna ne Nargis aur Uday ko sabkuchh bataya aur kaha ,
“ pandit ji, mai samajhti thee kee mera baap hee sabse ghatia aadmi hai lekin ye munim to uss se bhee bada harami hai, sach bolu to saala aadmi hai hee nahi, chhakka hai….gadha hai…”
Nargis ko bhee baate sunkar dukh huaa. Usne ladkiyo se kaha kee shayad Mansi apne ghar gaee hai lekin wo mandir jarur aayegi...teeno wonhi mandir mey ruk gaee.
Phulwa ko lekar Mansi apne ghar, maa ke paas gaee. Usne maa ko jhagra kee kuchh baat nahi bataee, Nasta karme ke baad akele Vinod ke ghar aaee. Phulwa ko mandir jaane ke liye kaha. Vinod apni maa ke saath Mansi ko lekar sub registrar ke office le gaya . Mansi ne bahut mana kiya lekin Vinod ne pahle hee sab arrangement kar rakha thaa, apna gaaon kaa ghar aur ghar ke aas paas kee saari jamin (25 acre se jyada) Mansi ke naam kiya, documents registered huye aur baad mey Mansi sabko lekar mandir aaee.
Tab tak Nargis ke maa baabuji, Altaf, uske parents aur Pinaz bhee wonhi aa gaye theye...Vinod aur uski maa ko unn sabke saath chhod Mansi apne room mey aaee, kuchh hisaab kitaab lagaya aur ek bag mey apne trunk se nikaal kar rupya bhada . Wo bag lekar wapas Nargis ke paas aaee. Ek ghante se jyada samay tak sabse khub hans kar, mazaak karte huye baat kee. Jinhone subah Mansi kaa gussa dekha thaa unhe biswas nahi huaa kee yah wohi ladki hai..
Kareeb 3 baje sabhi chale gaye. Mansi bhee wo rupyo se bhara bag lekar Vinod ke saath uske ghar aaee. Pahle to Sudha ( Vinod’s wife ) ko ek se badhkar ek gandi gaali dee aur kaha,
“ tu kaisee gharwali hai kutia, tera gharwala dunia kee sabse badi haramjaadi randi ke upar laakho phenk raha hai, uss kutia ko chodne ke liye apna itna bada haveli, jamin jyadaad de diya aur tu kutia kee pilli uski gaand maarne ke badle muskura rahi hai…’
Vinod, uski maa aur bahan pahle bhee Mansi kee gaali sunn chuke theye lekin maid Maya aur Sudha ke liye yah pahla mauka thaa…
“ chee tu kaisee ladki hai, koi ladki eise gaali bakti hai kya, koi nahi bolta aur jo bhai tujhe aankho par bitha kar rakhta hai uske liye eisa bol rahi hai.,.”
Sudha ne kaha aur Mansi ne usse kas kar galey lagaya...uske pet ko sahlaate huye kaha,
“ bhabhi, tu sach bahut masoom hai, Mamta jaisee kutia kee sabse badhia saheli hokar bhee tu itni badhia kyo hai, tera gharwala to mujhe nahi chodega lekin tere pet mey jo beta hai, mera bhanza hai wo mujhe jarur chodega….”
Sudha ne jhempte huye jabaab diya
“ kisne kaha pet mey bachcha hai, abhi kuchh nahi hai..tuney itna khilaaya pilaaya kee pet phul gayaa hai.lekin tu itna ganda kyo bol rahi hai ?.
Mansi kee baat sunn sabhi sharamaate huye ek dusre ko dekhne lage lekin Maya ne himmat kar kaha,
“ didi, aap kaise itni gandi baate kar sakti ho...baap re hum to soch bhee nahi sakte….”
“ soch nahi sakti lekin apne bhai se chudwa sakti ho….”
Mansi kee baat sunn Maya daurti huee room se baahar nikal gaee. Sab ne saath khana khaya. Uske baad Vinod bhee apni maa, wife aur bahan ke saath jaaney ke liye nikle. Sabke bahut mana karne par bhee, Vinod aur uski maa kee daant dapat ke baad bhee Mansi ne rupyo se bhara bag Sudha ko diya…
“ bhabhi, apni ek nanad ke taraf se chhota saa bhent,, please mana mut karna. “
Kisee ne kholkar nahi dekha lekin bag mey jo rupye theye unse Vinod kee haveli se bada makaan bun sakta thaa.
Mansi bahut roee, rukne ke liye bahut kaha lekin Vinod ne kaha kee jaana bahut jaruri hai,..Vinod kee maa ne Mansi ko bahut dulaar kiya aur kaha,
“ beti, tu Vinod ko bhai aur mujhe maa samajhti hai lekin asal mey tu hum sab kee maalkin hai, hum to ab shayad gaaon nahi aayenge lekin tu kolkatta aakar hum sab se milti rahna..”
.aur Mansi ne rotey huye kaha
“ maa, mai buss tumhari beti hu, Vinod aur Bina kee bahan, Sudha kee badmas nanad hu buss aur kuchh nahi, tum logo ke alawa mujhe koi aur pyar nahi karta, koi mujhe saath nahi rakhna chahta, koi mere saath nahi rahna chahta…”
Mansi ne indirectly sab kaha lekin yah nahi kaha kee usne Champa kaa ghar hamesha ke liye chhod diya hai. Rotey huye Mansi ne sabko bidaa kiya ...Bhuvan aur Maya se kahkar kee ghar ko theek se saaf kar de aur khane peene kaa jo saaman bacha hai, jitna chahe le jaaye aur baaki gareebo mey baant de .
“ Bhuvan , jo paka (cooked) khana hai wo sab gareebo mey baant do aur jo kachcha saamaan hai usse badhia se store kar do. “
Wonha se Mansi chhoti bahu ke office mey aaee. Usse dekh bahu ghabra gaee , usse laga kee shayad Heera ne supari baali baat Mansi ko bata dee ho…. Uska husband bhee khuchh ghante pahle kolkatta chala gaya thaa.
“ bhabhi, juldi se apni randi nanad Rekha ko phone lagao, saali bahut bhao maarti hai, aaj uska gaand maarungi…”
Bahu kaa maatha bhanna gaya...wo kabhi eisee baate nahi karti ..
Urgent trunk call book kiya, Rekha line par aaee aur receiver Mansi ko diya.
Mansi ------- Rekha didi, aap maharani hai, aap ne ek gareeb ladki kee baat nahi maani, maine aapko bulaya , kitna request kiya lekin aap nahi aaee…
Rekha ---------- tu hoti kaun hai bulane waali, tu bhale hee dunia ko buddhu banaye, mai jaanti hu kee tu uss naamard munim kee beti nahi hai aur naa tu Champa kee bahu hai, tu buss mere Manu kee randi hai ….phir ek randi, tere bulane par mai dusre ke ghar ke gruh pravesh mey mai kyo aau….
Bolkar Rekha ne phone rakh diya. Mansi ko dukh huaa , bahu ne kaha ,
“ wo Rekha hai hee ghamdi, kyo nahi aaee wo..?
Mansi ne bahu ko sab baat bataaee aur bahu ne surprisingly kaka,
“ Rekha ke jamin par ghar bana, Rekha ke baap ne saara paisa diya, Rekha ko chod chod kar barbaad kiya aur uss harami munim ne Rekha ko hee nahi bulaya. Champa didi ne ye sab bardaast kaise kiya, usne bhee apni betio ko nahi bulaya...Bura mut maan na , mujhe samajh nahi aata kee tere jaisee ladki uss munim jaise ghatia aadmi ke saath rahti kaise hai…! “
Mansi ne bahu kee baat kaa koi jabab nahi diya. Wo kaise kahti kee wo uss ghar mey sirf Manu ke liye rahti hai, lekin kaha,
“ bhabhi, aap Rekha ko apne jaisa kadak aur bindaas kyo nahi banati, aap sasural mey rani bunkar rahti hai, ghar ke loag hee nahi, gaaon waale sabhi aapko asal maharani samajhte hai aur Rekha didi maharani hokar bhee ek gulaam kee tarah rahti hai, “
Mansi ne bahu ko bataya kee Uday ne dekha kee kaise ek ladki Mayuri sabko, Rekha ko bhee anguli par nachati hai, didi apni marji se naa kanhi jaa sakti hai naa kisee se mil sakti hai, Aayush wonha 5 mahine se hai aur uss ladki Mayuri ne usse Rekha se ek baar bhee milne nahi diya , uske room mey jaane nahi diya,
“ bhabhi, aap kuchh apna gyan do usse, Rekha ghar kee badi bahu hai, naukrani nahi..bhabhi aap abhi uss se baat karo , apna example do….”
Bahu Rekha se baat nahi karna chahti thee lekin Mansi ke jidd kar ne par Bahu ne phir line lagaya, Rekha line par aaee…
Rekha ….---------- Hello,
Bahu --------- Rekha , mai teri chhoti bhabhi , please line mut kaatna , tujhse jaruri baat karni hai….
Rekha. ------ kya, kaun see baat. !
Bahu ----------- ( jhuth boli ) Mansi bahut dukhi hokar yanha se abhi gaee...tu nahi aaee to nahi aaee , lekin tuney Aayush ko kyo nahi aane diya, 5 mahine se uss ladki ke saath hai, Mansi kitni dukhi hai…..
Rekha ---- to mai kya karun , Mansi ne khud bheja thaa aur usse mai ne nahi meri dushman Mayuri ne rakha hai, mujhse ek baar bhee naa milne diya hai aur naa baat karne deti hai .
Bahu ------- Tum itni kamjor hogi , mai nahi jaanti thee….mere saamne to bahut bhao maarti ho , wonha kya huaa , bakri kyo bun gaee ?
Bahu ne phone par hee Rekha ko samjhaya kee bahu kya hoti hai , bahu kee kitni shaan hoti hai. Bahu ne apna example diya kee jub Rekha ne ussey Kolkatta jaane ko kaha thaa to bahu ne kya jabaab diya thaa. Bahu ne aur bhee bahut kuchh , hindi mey, english mey samjhaya. Mansi chup chaap sunti rahi…
Bahu -------- -mai to ghar kee chhoti bahu hu, randi hu , phir bhee sasural mey shaan se rahti hu, jo marji hoti hai karti hu, koi chuu bhee nahi kar sakta lekin tu to ghar kee badi bahu hai, asal maalkin hai...Mayuri to nanad hai, wo bhee apni nanad nahi, tu chahe to apni saas sasur ko bhee apni jutee ke neeche rakh sakti hai jaise mai rakhti hu , meri pyari nanad Mansi jaisa sherni bunkar raho, Mamta jaisa ghatia randi nahi…..
Rekha ne shaanti se sunaa aur finally kaha,
“ bhabhi, tum bahut hee achchee ho, ab mai bhee teri jaisee ban-ne kee koshish karungi...aur haa Mansi se meri taraf se maafi maang lena, Aayush ke liye bhee aur gruh pravesh par uske invitation par nahi aaee iss liye bhee. uss beti chod ( munim) ne nahi bulaya to kaise aati. ”
Bahu - nanadji, bahut din ho gaye tujhse, apni dushman nanad se jhagra kiye, juldi aa jaa, tera munim tera wait kar raha hai…..
Rekha -------- bhabhi , aaj meri samajh mey aaya….tuney uss betichod munim ko kyo maara, office se kyo nikala, tujhe sirf 2 thappar hee nahi 10 jutaa maarna chahiye thaa …. bhabhi juldi aaungi, apni paagal nanad ko maaf kar do.
Bahu ------ jaldi aa banno...mai bhee bahut akeli hu…
Bahu ne receiver rakh diya aur Mansi kee oar dekha.
“ thank you bhabhi thank you very much….mai jaati hu…”
Mansi uthne waali thee kee bahu ne Mansi kaa haath pakad kar bell press kiya, peon daur kar aaya. Bahu ne usse chai, snacks , sweets laane ke liye kaha. Wo chala gaya, Tabhi Lata office mey aaee, Usne bahu se kaha,
“ didi, Champa didi sethji ke paas baithee hai, sethji aapko bula rahe hai.”
Bahu uthi aur Mansi ko baithne ke liye bol Lata ke saath chali gaee. Lata ne Mansi se koi baat nahi kee. Sethji ne bahu ko dekhte hee kaha,
“ bahu, tum hee samjhao, ye Champa naye ghar ke jameen kee kimat aur ghar mey jo kharcha aaya hai wo sab dene aaee hai….”
Pahle Mansi aaee, wo office pahli baar aaee thee aur ab Champa aaee ghar aur jamin kaa kimat dene, jarur koi khaash baat huee hai…
Bahu ne socha . Usne aur sethji ne bahut samjhane kee koshish kee, kaha kee Rekha ne jamin gift mey diya hai aur sethji ne apni marji se ghar banbaya hai, wey kimat nahi le sakte . Bahut kahne par bhee jub sethji aur bahu nahi maane to Champa ne Mansi kaa naam liye bina subah waali dhamki suna dee…
“ agar aap loag pura paisa nahi lenge to hum ghar ko tod denge aur apne purane ghar mey hee rahenge…”
Champa kee dhamki sunn bahu ne nod kiya, Lata aur Rajni ne milkar hisaab lagaya aur Champa ko dono land aur construction kaa cost bataya. Sethji ne jitni kimat bataaee , Champa ne uss se ek laakh jyada diya…aur request kiya,
“ abhi to pakka receipt de dijiye lekin ek hufte ke andar jamin aur ghar hamare naam karwa dijiye….”
Bahu ne Champa se nahi kaha kee Mansi uske office mey baithee hai lekin bahu ke office wapas jaane ke baad receipt dete samay Lata ne Champa se kaha,
“ didi, Mansi ek ghante se chhoti maalkin ke office mey baithee hai , kya huaa , tum maa beti mey kuchh jhagra huaa hai kya….?”
Lata kee baat sunn Champa turant receipt lekar bahu ke office mey aaee aur Mansi kaa head sahlaate huye kaha,
“ beti, le dekh receipt, maine jamin aur ghar kaa sab paisa de diya hai, 7-8 din mey sabhi kaagjaat bhee mil jaayenge, ab wo ghar apne paise kaa hai, ab gussa thuk de, tu to usse ( munim ) jaanti hai kitna bebkoof hai, chal beti , tere bina kuchh badhia nahi lagta hai , teri sabhi sahelia, seema bhee chali gaee...mai bahut akeli ho gaee hu…”
Mansi ne receipt ko ek jhalak dekha , uth khadi huee aur kaha,
“ ab to mai uss ghar mey kabhi nahi jaa sakti, tu chahe to mere saath rah.”
Bolkar Mansi office se baahar nikli aur mandir kee taraf jaane lagi.
Idhar Champa ne bahut dukhi hokar subah waali sab baat chhoti bahu ko bataya..yah bhee kaha kee Poonam ke saath Manu waapas Kolkatta chala gaya hai .
Manu gaaon mey nahi hai , yah sunkar bahu kaa gaal
gusse se tamtama gaya...wo khadi ho gaee aur gusse se tamtamaate huye boli ,
“ didi, ab agar wo tera harami beta gaaon mey dikha to mai khud uski jaan le lungi….saala mujhe maarna chaahta hai to ek baar mey hee gala dabaakar kyo nahi maar deta hai , itna tarpaata kyo hai...ab mai iss gaaon mey nahi rah sakti …”
Bahu ek chooti bachchee kee tarah khub loudly roney lagi , Champa ne uska head apni chuchio par dabaya, bahu ke roney kaa awaaj sunn sabhi daure huye aaye….
Idhar sabhi bahu ko sambhalne mey jut gaye aur udhar Mansi mandir pahuchi...Nargis se lekar sabhi ko galey lagaya, Uday ko bhee ..Ussey bilkul khabar nahee thee kee Vinod apna makaan uske naam karna chahta hai….bhale hee makaan kee kimat se jyada rupya Vinod / Sudha ko diya , Vinod aur uski family kaa Mansi ke liye pyar ke saamne wo kuchh nahi thaa…
Seema aur Phulwa bhee Mansi ko itna khush dekh surprised nahi shocked thee.
“ kya huaa didi, bahut khush ho, jiju ( Aayush ) wapas aa gaye kya…? “
Seema ne puchha aur Mansi ne useey kamad se pakad hawa mey uthate huye kaha,
“ banno , ab hum kisee dharam-saala mey nahi, apne ghar mey rahenge, hamara apna ghar hai...aaj raat se hee hum Vinod bhaiya waale ghar mey rahenge, ab se wo ghar mera, nahi hum sabka hai…”
Mansi kee baate sunn sabhi ek dusre kee oar dekhne lage. Mansi ne sabko registration / transfer kaa document dikhaya.
“ hamare ghar se bada makaan iss ilake mey kisee aur kaa nahi hai, seth ji ka bhee nahi.”
Kisee ko ab bhee biswas nahi ho raha thaa.
Arti huee . Kisne khabar phailaaee maalum nahi lekin gaaon waalo ko khabar ho chuki thee kee Mansi aur uski team ne Champa kaa ghar chhor diya hai, kaee logo ne Mansi se puchha lekin wo baat ko taal gaee.
Lekin Dada, Anil aur gang ke kuchh logo ne Mansi ko badhai dee kee unhone Champa aur Mamta kaa ghar chhod diya...Anil phir Mansi ke saath raat gujarna chahta thaa lekin Mansi ne mana kar diya.
Bikas wapas aa gaya thaa, wo ab kuchh din Bikas ke saath masti chahti thee.
Maya aur Bhuvan bhee aaye aur Mansi ne Maya se kaha,
“ Vinod bhaiya teri bahut shikayat kar rahe theye...tuney unka bilkul dhyaan nahi rakha.”
Maya yah sunkar udas ho gaee.
“ didi, wey sab to kitne khush theye, unhone humey inaam bhee diya aur aap.”
Mansi ne uski baat kaat-te huye kaha ,
“ tujhe iski saza milegi ...ab tujhe hamesha ussee ghar mey rahna hoga, din raat lekin akele, tera ye yaar ( brother ) Bhuvan tere saath nahi rahega.”
Mansi kee baat sunn muskurate huye Mansi kaa feet chhune ke liye jhuki lekin Mansi ne beech mey rok diya aur kaha ..
“ chhoti bahan ko paap mey mut daalo, tu meri bhee didi hai aur inn sab ladkiyo kee bhee, ye teeno mere liye bahut kimti hai, inhe sambhal kar rakhna”
Mansi ne apni teeno sahelio , Seema, Sapna aur Ratna ko Maya se milaya.
“ ladkiyo , ye hum sabki Maya didi hai, ye bhee hamare saath hee rahegi. “
Mansi ne Bhuvan ko kuchh instruction diya. Pahle wo Mansi ke ghar jaakar Urmila se kaha kee Mansi ne dono ( wife husband) ko Vinod ke ghar bulaya hai , raat kaa khana wonhi hoga...wonha se Champa ke ghar gaya.
Champa se kaha kee Mansi didi ne apna aur apni sahelio kaa saara saaman ( clothes, books etc ) mangaya hai...Naa Champa ne puchha aur naa Bhuvan ne bataya kee ab se Mansi apne naye ghar Vinod kee haveli mey rahegi...Champa aur Mamta ne milkar, jitna possible thaa , chaaro ladkiyo kaa saaman Bhuvan ko diya , wo sab lekar Vinod ke ghar pahucha.
Wonha mandir se sabhi, Nargis aur Uday bhee mausi ke saath aa gaye theye , Urmila bhee apne husband ke saath aaye.Mansi ne Urmila se kaha ,
“ maa, ab se, abhi se ye apna ghar hai, hum sab yanhi rahenge.”
Usne document apne father ( chaudhry) ko dikhaya aur document dekhne ke baad Chaudhary ne dheere se kaha,
“ Mansi, iss ilake kee sabse amir hai...naa kisee ke paas itna property hai aur naa cash. “
Chaudhary ko Mansi ke loot ke maal kee khabar nahi thee…
Maya aur Phulwa ne milkar khana banaya, sabne khaya piya aur khaane ke baad Uday apni bibi aur mausi ko lekar wapas mandir chala gaya. Baaki sab wonhi soye, koi chudai nahi.aur agli subah wo huaa jo last 8-10 saalo mey kabhi nahi huaa,
Mansi sabse late, sabke baad soo kar uthee...kareeb 9 baje….
Kisee ne bhee Mansi ko pahle kabhi itna khush nahi dekha thaa.
“
Manu apni Sabbo kee haalat dekh bahut dukhi ho gaya. Wo kuchh bhee khana pina nahi chahta thaa lekin Saumya ke jidd par khaya, piya aur doctor se jidd kar Sabbo ke paas, ek chair par baitha raha.Shaam ko Dr Zeenat aaee lekin akele nahi Babli ke saath. Dono Manu se galey milna chahti thee lekin Manu apni jagah se nahi utha. Jab Zeenat saamne aaee to sirf itna kaha,
“ Rani, aapne meri Sabbo ka dhyan nahi rakha…”
Tab Zeenat apne ko nahi rok paaee, Manu ko tightly pakad roney lagi.
“ haa Manu, humse bahut badi galti ho gaee. Hum teri Sabbo ko nahi samajh paaye. “
Sabina kee aur bhee kaee friends , mostly females aaye, Chitra, Swati , Manju bhee aaye lekin Manu ne kisee se ek bhee baat nahi kee. Manu wednesday ko aaya thaa, saturday aa gaya . Sabina ke condition mey koi change nahi aaya. Manu bhee ghar ke logo ke saath khata peeta thaa lekin buss dikhane ke liye. Doctors ke mana karne par bhee Sabina ke hee room mey neeche floor par bed bichhakar soya. Saumya kaise chhodti, wo bhee Manu ke saath hee soee.
Bade bade doctors aaye lekin kisee ne koi ummeed nahi dikhaee . City ke sabse famous physician ne conclude kiya,
“ patient ko koi bahut bada mental setback huaa hai, koi physical problem nahi hai, koi bhee doctors kuchh nahi kar sakta hai…”
Manu sote jaagte pray karta raha aur uske bahut jidd karne par doctors ne Manu ko permission de diya kee wo Sabina ke hands aur face ko touch kar sakta hai, sahla sakta hai..
Aur Manu ussee samay se Sabina ke haatho, lips, cheeks , forehead aur head ko sahlane laga. Kaee loag aaye, uss se baat karne kee koshish kee lekin Manu ne ek shabd bhee nahi kaha, sahlaate sahlaate wo continuously murmur karta raha, beech beech mey Sabbo ke kaan mey kuchh bolta bhee jaata thaa. Sabhi ne , Saumya ne, Poonam ne jidd kee lekin Manu ne saturday morning se naa kuchh khaya naa piya. Jub doctors , nurse pipe badalte theye , dress badalte theye tabhi Manu bahar jaata thaa, baaki samay Sabbo ke bagal mey bhaith sahlata raha…
Kareeb 24 ghante gujar gaye, sunday morning ho gaya aur nurse ne ek bahut hee faint awaaj suni ,
“ Manu, manu, manu….” phir chuppi….
Nurse ne yah baat ghar ke logo ko bataaee aur turant apne doctor ko phone kiya,
“ sir, patient has uttered a word ‘ Manu ‘ few times…”
Turant hee doctor aaya aur usne dekha kee Manu patient ke forehead, hands aur cheeks ko kiss kar raha hai...aur Manu ke bhagwan aur guruji ne Manu ke prayer ko accept kar liya….
Sabbo ne aankh khola, uski nazar Manu se mili, lips par expression change huaa...aur usne dheere se kaha…
“ Manu, mera pyara manu…”
Phir aankh bund kar lee. Doctors ne pulse, heart beat, temperature check kiya aur Surana se kaha,
“ hopefully now she will recover fast….I think danger has passed. “
Doctor nurse ko kuchh instructions dekar chala gaya. Saumya ne Manu se bahut request kiya aur daant kar kaha,
“ teri Sabbo to ab theek ho jaayegi lekin teri ye gharwali, tere bachche kee maa marr jaayegi...maine bhee kal subah se paani kee ek boond bhee nahi lee...mai marr jaaungi…”
Manu utha to nahi lekin ek haath se Saumya kaa haath pakad kar apne bagal mey bithaya aur kaha,
“ naa tu maregi naa ye meri sabse badi dushman Sabbo, tum dono mujhe maar kar hee marogi…”
Sabbo ne aankhe kholi aur head hilaya …
“ Manu, tu kab aaya…? Saumya kuchh khila pila, bahut bukh lagi hai….”
5 seconds mey khatam honeye waala sentence complete karne mey Sabbo ko ek minutes se jyada samay laga. uske forehead par pasine kee boonde aa gaee.
“ madam please get some lemonade..”
Nurse ne room mey khadi Poonam se kaha..Poonam daur kar nimbu paani lekar aaee, nurse pilana chahti thee lekin Sabbo ne head hilaya. Nurse ne spoon aur glass Manu ko diya. Manu ne 4 spoon pilaya aur Sabbo ne phir aankh bund kar lee. Lekin uske face kaa expression change ho gaya thaa.
Nurse ne Manu ke shoulder ko pat kiya aur kaha,
“ sir , your prayer has worked, now your girl is out of danger. She will regain total consciousness in few hours. “
Nurse ne Manu se request kiya,
“ both of you please break your fast, I am assuring you , she is all right now but your wife ( Saumya) may get unconscious now. “
Nurse kee baar sunn Manu ne sabke saamne Saumya ko chuma, lips aur cheeks ko…
‘ chal meri maa, tu marr jaayegi to phir kaun mere bachche kee maa banegi…”
