Part 2
(Subah ki tuition aur bike wali feeling)
Subah 9:45 baje meri neend khuli to dekha Shivani masi mere bed ke paas khadi thi, haath mein coffee mug aur ek maths ki book. Usne white kurti aur blue jeans pehna tha, baal ponytail mein bandhe the, bilkul college ki senior lag rahi thi.
Shivani (zor se): “Uth jaa hero! 10 baje tuition tha, 9:45 ho gaye!”
Main bed se utha, aankhein malta hua: “Arre yaar, 15 minute aur…”
Shivani: “15 minute matlab tu 12 baje college ke liye late ho jayega. Chal brush kar, coffee pee aur table par aa. Aaj 1st year ka differentiation shuru karenge.”
Maine jaldi se fresh hua aur table par baith gaya. Shivani mere saamne baith gayi, book kholi aur pen mere haath mein thama diya.
Shivani: “Pehla sum – differentiate kar y = (sin x)^x”
Maine sar pakad liya: “Ye kya hai masi, itna tough?”
Shivani (hans kar): “Tough nahi hai, tu bas dimaag laga. Chal, logarithmic differentiation use karna padega.”
Agla ek ghanta hum dono ne 6-7 sums solve kiye. Wo bahut seriously padhati thi, lekin beech-beech mein bakchodi bhi chalti rahi.
Main sum galat karta to wo mera kaan kheenchti: “Abe Monu, ye to 12th class mein bhi aata tha tujhe!”
Main hans padta: “Tu bhi to 12th mein fail hone wali thi maths mein, yaad hai?”
Shivani (zubaan nikaal kar): “Haan, isliye to ab tujhe pass karwa rahi hoon, warna tu bhi fail ho jayega!”
11:45 baj gaye. Main jaldi se bag uthaya, bike ki chaabi li.
Main: “Chal masi, tujhe market chhod deta hoon. 12 baje college hai mera.”
Shivani ne apna sling bag uthaya aur mere peeche-peeche chali. Bike start ki, wo peeche baithi. Jaise hi maine bike aage badhayi, usne dono haath meri kamar par rakh diye – bilkul naturally, jaise har dost bike par baithta hai.
Par dil mein kuch aur hi feel ho raha tha.
Hawa tez thi, uske baal ud rahe the, meri gardan par aa rahe the. Wo mere kaan ke paas muh laayi aur chillayi (kyunki engine ki awaaz tez thi):
Shivani: “Thoda tez chala Monu! Market se pehle ek ice-cream bhi khaani hai!”
Main hans pada aur accelerator dabaya. Wo zor se hasi aur mere kandhe par thoda jhuk gayi. Uske haath meri kamar par thodi zor se pakad gaye taaki balance bana rahe.
Raste mein signal par ruke to ek uncle ne side se dekha aur muskura diye. Main samajh gaya wo kya soch rahe hain – “college ka couple”.
Shivani ne bhi notice kiya aur mere kaan mein fusfusaayi:
Shivani: “Dekha? Uncle ko lag raha hai tu mera boyfriend hai!”
Main sharma gaya: “To bol na, ‘ye mera bhanja hai’!”
Shivani (masti mein): “Arre rehne de, thodi si shaan ban jayegi teri college mein! Kal se sab poochhenge – ‘bhai teri GF kaun thi wo?’”
Hum dono hansne lage.
Market pahunch kar maine bike roki. Wo utri, baal thik kiye aur boli:
Shivani: “Shukriya driver sahab! Aate waqt auto le lungi. Tu college jaa, late mat hona.”
Main: “Ice-cream?”
Shivani: “Abhi nahi, shaam ko tu mujhe lene aayega na? Tab saath mein kulfi khaayenge. Promise?”
Main: “Pakka promise!”
Wo haath hila kar market ke andar chali gayi. Main bike ghuma kar college ki taraf chala, par dimaag mein sirf ek hi scene chal raha tha –
uske haath meri kamar par, uski saansein meri gardan par, uski hansne ki awaaz…
Dost to thi wo meri…
lekin aaj bike par pehli baar laga jaise…
jaise koi apni wali ho.
Shaam ka intezaar tha ab.
Kulfi ka bhi… aur uske saath bitaye har pal ka bhi.

(College mein “GF wala” dhamaka)
Main college parking mein bike laga hi raha tha ki door se hi teen-chaar awaazein ek saath aayi,
“Oye hero! Idhar aa!!!”
Dekha to mera regular adda-gang khada tha: Amit, Rohan, Vicky aur Shubham. Sab ke sab muh mein smile, aankhon mein chamak.
Amit ne aate hi mere kandhe par zordaar dhaul maari aur bola,
Amit: “Saale! Wo beauty queen kaun thi be?? bike pe peeche baithi thi… teri GF hai kya???”
Rohan (haath jod kar): “Bhai tu itna bada khiladi kab se ban gaya? Bataya kyun nahi??”
Vicky (dramebaaz andaaz mein): “Arre bhai uske baal ud rahe the, usne tere kandhe pe sar rakha tha… poora Bollywood scene tha yaar!”
Shubham (phone nikaal kar): “Photo nahi li, warna aaj college ke group mein banner laga deta – ‘Monu ki mystery girl’!”
Main pehle sach bolne hi wala tha, “Arre wo meri masi hai yaar…”, par zubaan pe brake lag gaya.
Socha… chalne dete hain na.
Thodi si shaan ban jayegi.
College mein pehli baar ladkiyon wale section mein entry ho rahi hai meri!
To maine style maara, helmet utara, baal set kiye aur dheere se bola,
Main: “Haan yaar… thi koi. Abhi baat zyada aage nahi badhi hai, chill karo.”
Amit ki aankhein nikal aayi,
Amit: “Thi koi??? Bhai poori Miss India thi yaar! White kurti, blue jeans, ponytail… aur wo smile… yaar tu kismat wala hai be!”
Rohan: “Naam kya kya bata na bhai! Instagram ID de!”
Main (muskurate hue): “Arre abhi starting hai yaar… time aane pe sabko introduce karwa dunga.”
Vicky ne mere gaal pe chikoti kaati: “Saale pehle humein chhupa raha tha! Aaj se tu hamara bhai nahi, bada bhai hai!”
Pura group hansne laga. Canteen ki taraf jaate-jaate Amit sabko story suna raha tha jaise khud ne live dekha ho,
Amit: “Bhai signal pe ruke the na… uncle ne bhi dekha aur smile kiya! Poora couple wala vibe tha yaar! Monu ab tak single bolta tha, aaj pata chala kitna bada player hai!”
Shubham: “Bhai aaj se tu hamara pride hai! Ladkon ke WhatsApp group ka naam badal dete hain – ‘Monu Ke Deewane’!”
Main andar andar hans raha tha.
Dil mein ek alag hi mazaa aa raha tha.
Pehli baar college mein meri shaan badh rahi thi, wo bhi Shivani masi ki wajah se.
Canteen pahunchte-pahunchte poora group mujhe gher kar sawal pe sawal kar raha tha,
- “Kab se chal raha hai?”
- “Pehli date kab?”
- “Kiss hua kya nahi ab tak?”
Main bas muskurata raha aur bola,
Main: “Arre bas abhi starting hai… thoda time do. Jab pakka ho jayega tab poori party dunga.”
Sab ne ek saath chillaye: “Deal!!”
Puri lunch break meri waah-waahi chalti rahi.
Kuch senior ladkiyan bhi door se dekh kar muskurane lagi.
Ek ne to Vicky se poochha bhi, “Wo Monu ki GF thi kya? Bahut pretty thi yaar!”
Shaam ko jab college se nikal raha tha tab bhi log peeche-peeche aa rahe the,
“Monu bhai, kal bhi waise hi drop karega na apni wali ko?”
Main hans pada aur bike start kar di.
Dil mein sirf ek hi baat thi,
Shivani masi ko batana padega ye sab…
wo sun kar pet pakad kar hansegi aur bolegi,
“Abe Monu! Tu to poora college ka hero ban gaya meri wajah se!”
Aur main soch raha tha…
kal shaam ko kulfi khane jaayenge na,
tab tak ye “GF wala” mazaa thoda aur chalna chahiye.
(To be continued… ab aage kulfi date aur Shivani ka reaction!)
