Sahil ko hosh aa chuka tha jabki aarti abhi bhi behosh thi......aarti hospital me thi ........sahil didi ke sath whi bahar gumsum sa baitha tha..............kuchh bhi nahi bol raha tha..............
Didi ne pyar se uske kandhe par hath rakh diya..............
“sahil tumhe kuchh batana hai........mai is sthiti me to nahi hu lekin agar aaj nhi bata payi to shayad kabhi nhi bata paungi...........tumhara ye jan na bahut jaroori hai..............” didi ke aankhe bhari thi aur wo dheere dheere bol rahi thi.....jeeja kahi gaye the aur juhi cottage me thi...........
“sahil yad hai jab tum apne interview ke bad ghar gaye the.............uske dusre teesre din hi dheeraj aur varsha wala case hua ......tumhare jeeja bahut gusse me the aur unhone ne bahut kuchh kaha dheeraj ko bhi aur tumhe bhi........us din aarti poori rat roti rahi ......dusre din bhi usne kuchh nhi khaya aur apni papa se bat bhi nahi kar rhi thi........usi din tumhara call aaya aur usne tumse thik se bat nhi ki.......gussa to wo kisi aur parr thi....lekin jaisa ki hamesa hota aaya tha, nikla ek bar fir se wo tum par.................
“Uske kuchh do din bad aarti achanak behosh ho gyi aur uski nak se blood aane laga.....hm use hospital lekar gaye..................hme laga ki use koi chhoti moti problem hogi lekin use...............”didi itna kahkar rone lagi.........sahil chuchap unki or dekh raha tha................
“hamne aarti ko har jagah dikhaya ...AIIMS ke chief doctor ne bhi dekha lekin sabka yhi kahna tha ki iska koi ilaaz nhi hai..........aarti se hmne chhupana chaha lekin jane kaise wo jaan gayi..............aur fir ek din wo rat me mere kamre me aayi..................”
Didi batate huye ateet ki dhundhali yado me kho gayi..............
“mummy ,aap soye nahi........”aarti ne room me aakar didi ko pichhe se gale lagate huye kaha....
“haan beta wo neend nahi aa rhi.......aa baith “ ...didi aarti ko lekar apne bed par baith gayi.
Aarti ne didi ke god me sar rakh liya.....didi dheere dheere uska sar sahlane lagi ....anayas hi unki aankhe bhar aayi...................
“mummy ,” aarti ki aawaz me bahut dard tha.
“haan meri jaan”didi lakh kosis ke bad bhi apne aansu na rok saki.
“mai marne wali hu na mummy............” aarti ne bahut mayoosi se kaha, didi ka kaleja fat gya uski bat par.
“nhi meri jannnnnnnnnnn......kuchh nhi hoga tujhe meri bachchi........tu bilkul thik ho jayegi...bilkul thik....aisa kabhi mat kahna .....mummy kaise jiyengi tujhe kuchh ho gaya to .....haan???” didi ne jor se use apne seene se laga liya aur foot footkar rone lagi.
“mummy kuchh kahna hai aapse.............”
“haan bol na meri jaan”
“mummy mai kisi se pyar karti hun...” aarti ka chehra bilkul shant tha.
Didi ek pal ko chakit ho gayi,
“kis se “ didi ne kaha
“sahil se” aarti ne bade garv se kaha.
“kaun sahil.........kahi apna sahillllll to...........” didi ko is bat ka gumaan to pahle se hi tha ,bas aaj us bat ki pushti ho rahi thi.
“haa mummy,mere sahil se, aapke sahil se..........mujhe pata hai ye sahi nahi hai..........lekin ho gaya mummy.....maaf kar dijiye.........” aarti ki aankhe bhar aayi.
Didi is samay use kya samjhati....chup rahi...........aur use ek bar fir gale se laga liya..............
“sahil hai pyar karne ke layak , mujhe naaj hai teri pasand par.......lekin beta duniya samaj ........aur fir tere papa........... aur kya sahil bhi...” didi ne dil ki bat kahi.
“haan mummy sahil bhi mujhe se beintaha pyar karte hain.......lekin iski shuruwat maine ki thi....sahil ko maine propose kiya tha...............sahil ki koi galti nhi hai mummy..........” aarti aaj bhi apne sahil ko bacha rhi thi.
“galti to teri bhi nhi hai meri jaan.............”mummy bas itna hi bol payi.
“mummy kitna waqt hai mere pas............”aarti ka sara dard uski un jheel si kali aankho me utar aaya tha................aur didi se wo dard bardasht nhi ho raha tha............
“ kaisi baten kar rahi hai aarti......tu thik ho jayegi beta......bilkul thik....aur fir mai tujhe tere sahil se mila dungi........chahe duniya kuchh bhi kahe.......aur agar koi nahi mana to mai tum dono ko yha se door bhej dungi........mera yakeen kar................” didi apne lado ke laad me bole ja rahi thi...........jabki unhe achchhi tarah se pata tha ki aarti ab kabhi bhi normal life nhi jee payegi.
“plss mummy sach bataiye na........mujhe sab pata hai mom...........kitna waqt hai mere pas............aapko meri kasam ............bahut jaroori hai ye jan na mere liye .................pls.........”
Didi rone lagi aarti ki bat sunkar......aur rote rote hi kaha.........
“doctor ne kaha hai ek do sal ya fir maximum 5-6 sal ...severety par depend karta hai.....meri jaan tujhe kuchh nhi hoga.........mujhse kabhi mat puchhna ab..........tu thik ho jayegi beta.........sabkuchh doctor hi to nhi hote..............bhagwan bhi to hota hai na kuchh..............dekhna tu thik ho jayegi.............” didi ki aankhe baras rahi thi aur unhone aarti ko gale se lagaye huye uske gal choom liye.
“haan mummy mai thik ho jaungi...........mummy aapse kuchh mangu.............” aarti boli.
“kya beta???? ...mummy se mangne ke liye ijajat mangte hain koi........” did boli.
“mummy, sahil ko ye bat kabhi pata nhi chalni chahiye................plss...aapko meri kasam .........meri aakhiri tamnna samjh lijiye ise...........wo bardasht nhi kar payenge...........bahut jyada chahte hain sahil mujhe...........un aankho ke sapne tut jayenge...........mujhe bahut dard ho raha hai mummy.....maine apne sahil se bewafai kar di............mai “ BEWAFA “ ho gayi mummy.........mai bahut buri hu..........mera sahil bahut masoom hai......kaise bardasht karenge wo.........mujhe jeena hai mummy ...........mai marna nahi chahti............mujhe bacha lijiye maa....pls...........boliye na apne bhagwan se.......plss mummy bacha lijiye apni aarti ko...........” pahli bar aarti tutkar royi thi apni maa ki bahon me.......did bhi buri tarah se ro rahi thi , kitna majboor kar diya tha kissmat ne aaj us maa ko.
Didi bata rahi thi aur sahil patthar ki moorat bane sun raha tha.........didi ro rahi thi lekin wo chup tha.........
“sahil uske bad aarti ne jo kuchh kiya wo sirf ek natak tha ....wo tumhe khud se door karna chahti thi..........wo shadi ka card jo dekh kar tumne suicide attempt kiya ,aur fir wo jhoothi shadi........jo kabhi huyi hi nahi.”
“jante ho ,jis din maine tumhe phone kiya ki aarti ki shadi tay ho gayi hai aur tumhe aana hai us din aarti mere bagal me baithi thi ....us samay juhi tumhare pas pahuchi hogi aur usne tumhe yha shadi me aane se mna kiya hoga........kyuki aarti ne use wha bheja tha........ ...use dar tha ki tum fir se aisa kuchh na kro .....lekin juhi ko wajah nhi pata thi ....use bas ye pata tha ki aarti ki shadi ho rahi hai ...........aur tumhe sambhalane ke liye use bhej rahi hai aarti.”
har bat par sahil ka dil ro raha tha ...........kya kay nahi kiya tha aarti ne uske liye aur kya kya nahi saha tha us masoom ne.
“sahil shayad tumhe pata nhi hoga..........jab tum yha se gaye to aarti saye ki tarah tumhare pichhe thi ....tumhara jis institute me hua tha wha tumhara resume aarti ne send kiya tha.......wo uske kisi dost ke uncle the jo wha ke director the..............usne tumhe akela nhi chhoda tha sahil kabhi bhi............lekin uske bad aarti ki tabiyat jyada kharab ho gayi aur wo shimla chali gayi....wha se usne MBBS bhi kiya aur jeevan-vatika me uska ilaaj bhi hota raha.......”
Didi yad karke ek ek bat sahil ko bata rahi thi ...jaise ki apni beti ka case lad rahi ho....au dar ho ki kahi wo case haar na jayen.........
“yad hai jis din tum hame mall me mile the , jab ham kapde aur lahnga kharid rahe the ............sahil wo aarti nahi kharid rahi thi ................uski ek dost ki shadi thi jo us samay sath hi thi................. aarti kahi bahar nhi aati jati thi isliye us din ham sab use jabdasti bahar le gaye the ...aur wha tum aur juhi mil gaye...........”
“sahil aarti bahut ghut ghut ki jee hai ye 6 sal ....ek ek bat mujhse kahti thi aur har rat sone se pahle tumse maafi mangti hai ...aaj bhi ..........”
Didi sab kuchh bata kar chup ho gayi thi...........itane me jeeja bhi aa gaye.........wo bhi wahi aakar baith gaye aur sahil ki or dekhne lage.
Sahil ki or dekhte dekhte achanak foor foot kar rone lage............
“meri aarti ko bacha lo sahil........plss....tumne to use har mushkil se nikala hai.......har kadam par uska saaya bane rahe ..........aaj ek aakhiri bar........pls............apni muhabbat ko bacha lo sahil...............plssssss............mai har gunaah ki maafi mangta hu.............bas use bacha lo..............kuchh bhi kar ke............” jeeje jaise majboot insaan ko is kadar toot kar rote dekh sahil ka dil bhi dahal gaya.......dil to pahle se hi tar tar ho chukka tha............ unki baton se saf lag raha tha ki unhe bhi sab pata hai dono ki muhabbat ke bare me.......
Wah ri muhabbat ! wah ri kismat! Aaj jab sabne unka pyar sweekar kar liya tha to unka pyar chand sanso ka mohtaj ho gaya tha
“sahil doctor ne kaha hai ki bas kuchh din bache hai meri beti ke pas...........plsss..sahil .......bacha lo apni aarti ko ...bacha lo..........” jeeja sahil ka hath apni aankho se laga kar ro rahe the.
Piche aakar khadi juhi dhamm se farsh par gir gayi.......uske pair kaanp rahe the ye sab sunkar ......use ab pata chal tha ki aarti itnai jyada bimar hai...........sahil ne fauran use uthakar apne pas bitha liya aur uska sar apne kandhe par rakh liya.............
Juhi sooni sooni aankho se sabki or dekh rahi thi.............
“ Mai dua karoongi ki tumhe muhabbat ki ek boond bhi naseeb na ho............” aarti ko usne yahi baddua di thi ...................aur aaj uski baddua use ek gali lag rahi thi khud ke liye...........
Juhi chuchap baithi rahi.............use khud se nafarat ho rahi thi......kya nahi kaha tha usne aarti ko ........kitna bar beafwa kahkar gali di thi .....ek ek khusi ke liye tarasane ki baddua di thi .....aur aaj uski har bat uske kaleje ko chher rahi thi .
juhi ne jo kuchh kiya halat ne karwaya tha us se ..........uska koi, koi dosh nhi tha lekin wo fir bhi khud ko gunahgar maan baithi thi.......uski aankho me ek kabhi na jane wali virani dikh rahi thi..........aansu nahi the.....................kyuki jo dard is samay uske seene me uth raha tha use bayaan kar pana aansuo ke bas me nahi tha.........
“juhi plss sambhalo khud ko beta........” didi ne uske sar par hath phera aur juhi unke gale lag kar rone lagi...........
“I m sorry didi, mai bahut buri hu...........maaf kar dijiye.............” sahil chup tha ....kuchh nhi kah raha tha......tabhi ward boy ne aakar kaha..........
“patient ko hosh aa gya...........aap chahe to mil sakte hai” sab ek sath uthe aur ward ki ro chal diye......bas sahil pichhe rah gya..........aur uske sath the jeeja................
“sahil doctor ne kaha hai aarti ke pass bas kuchh din hain.............plsss use bacha lo sahil.....meri beti ko bacha lo..............” jeeja aaj bahut dard me the ..............beti ki muhabbat ne unhe sab kuchh bhoola diya tha....duniya-samaj ,parmapara-maryada.....kuchh bhi yad nhi tha........bas aaj unhe unki beti yad thi.
“use kuchh nhi hoga.........mai jane nahi dunga use .....chahe kuchh bhi ho jaye......” sahil ki aawaz me ek majbooti thi ,ek sakhti thi aur ek jid thi.
Sab log aarti ke pas the.....rohan bhi aa gya tha..........bas juhi andar nhi gayi thi ...uski himmat nhi ho rahi thi aarti ko face kar pane ki .............sahil chuchap ek kone me khada tha.........aarti leti huyi mummy papa se kuchh kuchh bol rahi thi aur kabhi kabhi halke se has deti.......lekin uski nazre sahil par tiki huyi thi.................
Sahil bhi uski or dekh raha tha.....sari duniya se naraz-naraz sahil aarti ko bahut pyara lag raha tha..........ek tees uth rahi thi uske dil me.............kash wo sahil ko mana leti........us chhote se bachche ke jaise naraz tha wo jiska koi pasndida khilona chhin gya tha us se........sahil ke chehre par saadiyon ki udasi thi lekin un aankho me ek jid thi .........
wo aankhe bol rahi thi--
“aaj sari duniya se takaraa jaunga ,lekin tujhe jane nahi dunga.”
Aaj kismat ka takraw hona tha muhabbat se,aur unki muhabbat ke liye shayad qayamat ka din aa gya tha.
Didi ne pyar se uske kandhe par hath rakh diya..............
“sahil tumhe kuchh batana hai........mai is sthiti me to nahi hu lekin agar aaj nhi bata payi to shayad kabhi nhi bata paungi...........tumhara ye jan na bahut jaroori hai..............” didi ke aankhe bhari thi aur wo dheere dheere bol rahi thi.....jeeja kahi gaye the aur juhi cottage me thi...........
