Chapter I - Pita ya Premi
#04
Mohan abhi bhi us band padi dukan k samne tabutre pe baitha hua tha uski aankhein num pr dil toota chuka tha, dimag mein sirf wahi ek hi nazara ghum raha hai jaha uski Patni Sundari apne Pita k sath puri nangi bistar pe laiti hui thi
Wo jitni jada koshish kar raha tha ki use na yaad kare na soche, jaise wo drishya utna hi jada uski aankhon k samne aa raha tha
Na jaane wo kitni der aise hi wahi baitha raha dhire dhire aansu behne bhi ruk chuke thay par chehre pe dard ab bhi pada ja sakta tha jaise kisi ne uski puri duniya lut li ho
Tabhi kisi ne uske kandhe pe haath rakha, Mohan chaunk kar upar dekhta hai toh samne uska dost Aslam khada tha jo wahi purane Auto stand k pass hi apni choti si meet ki dukaan chalata hai aur jadatar esi samay wo wo subha ki mandi jaya karta tha
Aslam ek bhi baar mein jaan janta hai ki mere Chehra pe chinta aur dukh ki lakire hai wo turant hi mere pass baith jata hai aur bolta hai
"Arre Mohan bhai kiya baat hai, sab theek hai na
yahan akela baitha ho?
Kya hua?
Tumhara Chehra q utra hua hai"
Mohan jaldi se khud ko sambhalta hai par sach toh ye tha ki wo mushkil se Aslam k samne khud ko rone se rok pa raha tha, jaldi se chehra pe muskurahat laane ki koshish karta hua kehta hai
"Kuch nahi bhai… bas subha subha sair pe nikla tha toh thak gaya toh baith k thoda aaram karne laga"
Aslam uski aur dhiyan se dekhte hue
"Pakka aur koi baat toh nahi hai na,
kuch bhi dikkat pareshani hai toh mujhe bata sakte ho tum
Waise kahi Bhabhi se koi jhagda toh nahi hua hua ?"
Mohan jaldi se sar 'na' me hilate hue
"Are nahi nahiz sab theek hai wo bas thak gaya tha"
Aslam wahi uske pass baith k thodi der aur baat karta rehta aur phir apni ki aur chal padta hai, uske jaane ke baad Mohan ko yaad aata hai
Tabhi Aslam ko jaate hue dekh k Mohan ko uski kahi ek purana baat yaad aa jaati hai
Ye baat tab ki hai Jab Mohan ne apni shadi ki baat Aslam ko batayi thi jise sunkar wo bahut hi khus hua tha usne toh khushi k mare us samay waha chai ki dukaan pe baithe sabhi ko muft chai tak pilwa di thi
Aslam bahut khush tha aur usne tab kaha tha
"Bhai, bhabhi ki photo dikha, main bhi toh dekhu kon hai wo jisne mere Bhai ko gulam bana liya"
Mohan ne turant hi phone nikaal kar Sundari ki photo dikhayi thi jis photo mein Sundari ek sarso k khet mein phoolon k beech khadi hui thi
Aslam ne jaise hi photo dekhi toh maano wo us photo se chipak hi gaya tha aur na jane kitni baar usne zoom kar kar k Sundari ki photo dekhi hogi, aur tab anayas hi munh se nikal gaya tha
"Yaar ye toh kuch jada hi kadak maal hai, tujhse sambhalegi?"
Aur ye sunte hi Mohan ko bahut gussa aa gaya tha esliye usne turant Aslam se apna phone kheech liya tha
"Kiya bakwas kar rahe ho ye meri hone waali biwi hai, aisi baat karte hue sharam nahi aati tumhe"
Mohan es baat se itna ghussa ho gaya tha ki usne kai dinon tak Aslam se baat nahi ki thi baad mein Aslam ne maafi mang k kaha tha ki wo toh bas mazak kar raha tha
*Aslam ka bare mein aapko agle Chapter mein ache se Janne ko milega*
Dekhte hi dekhte kab 8 baj jaate hain Mohan ko pata hi nahi chalta wo toh jab dukan wala aata hai tab jake use kahi hosh aata hai, Suraj ab poora nikal chuka tha aur market mein logo ka aana jana suru ho chuka tha
Mohan beman se waha se uthkar wapas ghar ki aur chal padta hai jaha raste mein us badi si park ki aur uski nazar aati hai jaha park mein peeche ki aur paido ka Kai pura jungle sa tha aur har tarah uchi uchi jhadiyon k jhund bhi waha es samay school jane wale kuch bacche ruk k khelne lage hain
Mohan ke paas doodh ka dibba abhi bhi khali tha or wo aise hi bhari-bhari kadmo se aur aankhon ke saamne abhi bhi wahi drishya liye hue ghar ki aur chal padta hai
khali dibba haath mein liye hue air Dil mein ek hi sawal baar -
"Main kiya karu?
Sundari se poochhu?
Ya chup rahun? "
Jaldi hi use apne Ghar ka darwaza nazar aane lagta hai ki tabhi uske pados waale 57 saal k Khan Chacha apni balkani mein apne paudon ko paani dete hue nazar aa jate hai jo na jane q Mohan ko dekh k bura munh fair lete hai, asal mein wo aise hi hai pure mohalle mein kisi se nahi milte na kisi k yaha aana jana pasand karte hai
Mohan ka ghar bilkul road kinare thay jaha wo jaise hi darwaje pe hath rakhta hai wo khulta chala jata hai, sayad wo khud hi band karna bhool gaya tha us samay
Bhari man se wo andar pravesh karta hai aur apne ghar ko dekhta hai uska wo chhota sa makaan jahaan kal tak uski zindagi khushiyon se bhari thi, aur aaj subah achanak se hi sab kuch bikhar sa gaya
Andar aate hi ek baar phir se uska Dil bhari ho jaata hai, aankhein phir se num hone lagti hai par na chahte hue bhi woh dheere se andar pravesh karta hi hai
Pair uske kamdo mein puri khamoshi thi
Par abhi wo kuch ghar mein puri tarah andar aaya bhi nahi tha ki tabhi use kitchen ke andar se ek halki si par kamuk aah sunai deti hai jise wo ache se pehchanta tha
Wo aawaz uski Patni Sundari ki hai
