Update 17
Nitin hushn ki bepanah doulat ko apne kamsin anchhuye badan mein samete bister par achet awastha mein leti Shruti ko dekh apne honton ko apni hi jeebh se baar baar tar karta raha.. Wah uske paas hi baitha uski youvan prakastha ka prayay madmast chhatiyon ko ektak dekhe ja raha tha… Par Aascharyajanak dhang se unhe chhoone ki koyi koshish usne nahi ki… Achanak wah utha aur kamre se bahar nikal gaya…
Kamra band kiye jane ki aawaj aate hi Bhay se charmara si uthi Shruti ne dheere se apni aankhein khol di.. apni saanson par kabu paane ki asafal koshish karti huyi Shruti ne Gardan ghumakar kamre mein dekha.. Wahan koyi nahi tha… Par wahan pasra sannata hi wahan kisi ki moujoodgi se bhi bhayanak tha.. Shruti ki aankhon ke saamne kuchh hi minute pahle ka amanushik manjar rah rah kar koundh raha tha.. Uss deewar ki taraf dekhne tak ki himmat nahi kar pa rahi Shruti achanak uthi aur bahar nikalne ke darwaje ki aur lapki.. par uski ye teji vyarth hi thi; darwaja bahar se band tha…
“Hey Bhagwan.. Main kya karoon?” Ghutno ke bal wahin baithkar subakne lagi Shruti ke paas aur koyi chara bhi nahi tha…
“abhi aaya mem’saab!” achanak kamre mein goonji ek mardani aawaj ne lagbhag usko uchhal hi diya..,”kkkoun.. Koun hai?” bhay ke maare Shruti ka kaleja aur aankhein dono bahar nikalne ko ho gaye.. Par uske baad koyi aawaj usko sunayi nahi di…
Inn halat mein toh bade se bade teesmarkha bhi tharrane ko majboor ho jate.. Shruti toh fir bhi ek ladki thi.. Badhawas si kamre mein idhar udhar dekhti wo ek deewar ke sath chipak kar khadi hokar haanfne lagi…
Achanak darwaja khula aur kareeb 35-40 saal ka Bhaddi si shakal ka lamba tagda aadmi kamre mein dakhil hua.. Shruti dahsahat ke maare simat kar kone mein ja khadi huyi…
“Kuchh chahiye mem’shaab!” aadmi ki aawaj mein atyadhik vinamrata thi.. Par Shruti ke liye uss pal koyi bhi aawaj kisi yamraaj ki dahad se kam nahi thi…
“Koun ho tum?.. Mujhe yahan se jane do pls..” Shruti kone mein chipke huye hi apne dono hath prarthna ki mudra mein aage le aayi..
“Main bhagwan ho mem’shaab.. Bhagwandaas.. Sahab ka sewak hoon.. Aur unke mehmaano ka bhi.. Abhi sahab yahan nahi hain.. Kuchh chahiye toh fir se mujhe aawaj laga dena.. Kuchh chahiye kya aapko abhi..?”
“Mujhe jaane do pls.. Mujhe jana hai yahan se…!” Shruti gidgidate huye boli…
“Par yahan se toh koyi jata hi nahi wapas.. Jab sahab ka kaam ho jayega toh wo aapko mujhe gift kar denge.. He he he.. Tab tak aap meri malkin hain.. Par mere saamne dobara jane ka jikar mat karna mem’shaab.. Sahab ne bata rakha hai mujhe kya karna hai, agar aap jaane ki koshish karo toh.. he he he..” bhagwandaas ne kaha aur bahar nikal gaya.. Darwaje ki kundi lagakar…
