Update 17 A Rival Or What ?​

Unn dinon ko mobile, whatsasp, messenger, twitter, snapchat kuch bhai tha to nahin magar unn dinon ke youngsters kaise communicate karte the? Kia weh log bhi communicate karte ya chat karte the? Ziada door ki baat nahin 1986/87 mein filhaal chal rahi hai yeh kahani. To kia jaise aaj sab communicate karte hein tab hota tha kia?

Haan hota tha, bilkool hota tha. Wo kaise main samjhata hoon. Lagbhag har teenager ka boyfriend hua karta tha tab bhi. Jo college jaate the unnke to hote hi the, baahar ghumne, café mein, library vaghaira mein milte the date par tab bhi. Aur Abhi yehi chahta tha, aisa hi chahta tha ke usski love story chale. Wo chahta tha ek ladki ko passand kare aur iss se pehle ke family walon ko pata chale wo aur ladki mile koyi ek saal tak akele, ek dusre se behad pyar kare, tab apne parents ko bataaye phir engagement kare, tab shaadi. Abhi aisa love story chahta tha apni life mein.

Ab kaise communicate karte the baaki ke youngsters?

Wo hota aisa tha ke unn dinon har newpapers mein ek corner hota tha “PENFRIENDS CORNER” ke naam se. Uss corner mein koyi bhi apna naam aur address likh kar newspaper ko send karta aur usska naam aur address publish hota tha paper mein, aur koyi bhi ussko khat likh sakta tha kyunke usska naam penfriend corner mein aya tha. Teenagers, ladke, ladkiyan, adult, aged log sab uss penfriend corner mein apna naam send karte the, jissko ek saathi ko khat likhna passand tha, new friends banana, desh se bhi aur videsh se bhi.

Uss zarye se bahot saare jodi bane jo aaj shaadi shuda successful couples bhi hein. Ab hota aisa bhi tha ke jiss ladki ka naam uss corner mein aya to ussko 200 se 500 ladke khat likhna shuru kar dete the. Ab ladki ko sab ko reply karna to mumkin hota nahin tha to kuch gine chunon ko reply karti, aur dhire dhire unn mein ek to zaroor passand ata tha…. apne baare mein likha kia karte the, kidhar rehte ho, family members kitne hein etc etc…. sab kuch bolte the apne baare mein. Iss tarah se har kissi ko koyi ek to passand ata hi tha phir apne photos bhi bhejte the chithi ke lifaafe mein. Aaj to whatsap par ek selfie lekar send kar diya jata hai, magar unn dinon postman ka wait karna padta tha chithi aane ka. Ek alag khusi aur mahaul bana rehta jinn logon ke penfriends hote the aur har roz postman ka intezaar kiya jaata tha. Postman ghussa hota aur kehta, “are shaadi karlo tum log ek baar yaar lafda khatam ho har roz aise chitthiyan lane ko mujhe!”

Ab desh bhar mein naujawanon ke beech yeh Silsila chalta tha. well padhe likhe logon ke bich of course.

To Abhi ke bhi penfriends the Ruhi ko jaanne se bahot pehle. Do saal pehle Abhi ne unn sab mein se 3 penfriends se mile bhi the, magar teenon mein se ek bhi Abhi ko personally passand nahin aaye the, to sirf dosti aur writing tak ka naata rakha unn sab se aur dhire dhire ladkiyon ne Abhi ke letters ko reply karna band kar diye kyunke unn ladkiyon ko dusre penfriends mil gaye.

Abhi ke do foreigners penfriends bhi the, ek France se Pascale naam se aur ek Jennifer naam se jo Scotland se thi. Donon ne apni apni tasveerein send kiye the Abhi ko, aur Abhi ne bhi apne pics send kiye the unn donon ko, aur iss saal jinn dinon Abhi Ruhi ke yahan kaam karta tha yeh donon foreigners aur 2 local girls Abhi ke penfriends the. Abhi itna handsome tha ke laldkiyan to ussko passand kar lete the magar Abhi ko koyi passand ata tab nah baat banti? Phir jabse Abhi ne Mehboob ke yahan kaam karna shuru kiya tab se ek bhi penfriend ke khaton ko reply kiya hi nahin tha.

To lifaafe mein chithi ke saath photo share karna aam baat hoti thi unn dinon. Sabhi karte the. Aur aise hi ek din Abhi ne Ruhi se kaha jaise penfriends photo share karte hein kyun wo share nahin karti Abhi ke saath aur kyun ek dusre ko likh nahin sakte? Abhi ne Ruhi ko bataya ke usske bhi penfriends hein foreign mein bhi hai, buss dost hein iss liye Ruhi se apne photo manga magar Ruhi phir bhi nahin maani photos dene ko.

Abhi apne diary mein likhta to kehta ke sala jiss se koyi naata nahin, ziada interest nahin unn ladkiyon ke photos hein usske paas aur jiss se beinteha pyar karta tha usski ek tasveer bhi nahin usske paas.

*******************************************************************************

Uss shaam ko ghar wapas jaate waqt Abhi aur Saeed ek hi seat par baithe the bus mein. Abhi ne Saeed se kaha,

“Bhai main beinteha pyar karta hoon Ruhi se bhai. Main uss se shadi karna chahta hoon. I am serious bhai.”

Saeed: “Mujhe pata hai Abhi. Sabko pata hai wahan. Magar kia ladki bhi tumko pyar karti hai ya aise hi tere saath dillagi kar rahi hai?!”

Abhi: “Karti hai nah bhai bahot pyar karti hai mujhse, wo kaise nahin dikha aap ko bhai?! Aap dekhte nahin har baar mere saamne aa jaati hai, kabhi bhi baat karti hai, har tarah se prove karti hai ke mujhse pyar karti hai, dekha nah lunch time ke baad kitne der tak usske saath tha main?!”

Saeed: “ghar ke piche the tum donon nah? kia kar rahe the utne der tak? Kuch ghalat to nahin kiya nah Abhi?!”

Abhi: ”are nahin bhai, buss kiss kiya ziada kuch nahin!”

Saeed ne ek ajeeb si muskurahat mein kaha,

“kiss karne diya ussne tujhe? Buss itne dinon ke mulakaat mein kiss tak aa gaye tum donon, tab to ladki pahunchi hui hai Abhi, aisa nahin lagta tumko kia?!”

Abhi saeed ka matlab nahin samjha to buss kaha,

“behad chahti hai mujhe wo bhi bhai issi liye nah!”

*****************************************************************************

Usske baad kaam par takriban har roz lunch time mein Abhi Ruhi se milta, donon pyar bhare kuch pal guzaarte. Kiss karte. Pyar ki baatein karte…. Yeh ek hafte tak guzra.

Donon ke bare mein din ba din sabko pata chalta gaya, jitney bhi log chaahe ussi angan ke ya baahar ke bhi jo aate the bus dekhne aur ghanton guzaarte the uss aangan mein sabko pata chal gaya tha ke Ruhi aur Abhi ke beech love hai. Sab khule aam ek dusre ko dikhte, aur ab jiada pyar dikhaate to baaki ke saare logon ko dikhta tha, aur danke ke choat par Abhi kehta tha ke wo Ruhi se bahot pyar karta hai aur jald hi uss se mangni karega, phir shaadi.

Aur ek tha wahan Reza, wo Mehboob ke bus mein conductor ka kaam karta tha, Mehboob ke aur 4 buses chal rahe the nah. To jab bhi wo aata aangan mein jaise ussko jalan hota Abhi aur Ruhi ko close dekh kar, yeh Abhi ne notice kiya tha. Reza koyi 23 se 25 ka naujawaan tha. Aur wo uss mohalle ka rehne wala tha aur Ruhi se usski jaan pehchaan thi pehle se kyun ke wahin ka rehne wala tha aur uss aangan mein usska ana jana tha pehle se.

To kayi baar aise ghatnaayein hue jahan kabhi Abhi Ruhi se kuch kehna chahta to Reza bich mein khada rehta, unn donon ko baat nahin karne deta, ya kabhi Ruhi kuch Abhi ko dene arahi ho to wo chiz Reza le leta tab Abi ko deta, ya jab Abhi aur Ruhi terrace ke paas baat kar rahe hote to Reza wahan aakar khada ho jaata aur ek saath baat karta Abhi aur Ruhi se. Abhi ko bahot ghusa ata tha magar kuch kehta nahin tha Reza se. Par Ruhi se kehta tha ke Reza weisa kyun karta hai, to Ruhi kehti ke ussko ignore karne ko kyun ke wo short minded hai, aur sahi mein wo Reza short minded hi tha.

Iss Reza ke baare mein baad mein kuch aur aega issi liye issko yahan introduce karna pada.

Baaki sab mamool par chal rahe the uss aangan mein. Ruhi ab bekaraar rehne lagi thi Abhi ke bina aisa anumaan hota tha kyunke wo had se ziada baahar aati thi, bus ke paas aati, Abhi ko dekhti, uss se muskuraati, jeeb se mock karti, etc. Abhi har roz zoron se seeti bajaate hue wo geet gata “pyar karte hein hum tumhein itna”

Abhi ki seeti mashoor ho gayi thi uss aangan mein uss gaane ke sur mein bajte hue. Aur itna zor se whistle karta ke door tak sunaayi deta aur jitney bhi ghar aas paas the sab sunte the aur sabko pata chal jaata tha ke Abhi Ruhi ke liye wo tune ka seeti bajaata hai.

Ek shaam ko Shweta, Farzina aur Ruhi aangan mein ek copy book hath mein liye kuch game khel rahe the, aur Farzina bus mein aayi Abhi ke paas aur ek puzzle likh kar pucha. Abhi ne fatafat jawaab likh kar de diya. Phir baad mein pata chala ke wo puzzle Ruhi ne likh kar diya tha Farzinah ko guess karne ke liye aur Farzina ne Abhi ki help se jawaab paa liya aur jaakar Ruhi ko dikhaya.

Usske baad, Abhi ke kuch puzzles jaise sawaal likhe aur Farzinah ko jaa kar Ruhi se usska jawaab likhne ko kaha. Ruhi ko samajh mein nahin aya. Dada ji wahin aangan mein ek chothe se chair par baithe bachon ko aate jaate dekh rahe the to ek baar ussne copy book manga dekhne ke liye ke kia ussko puzzle ka jawaab aega… ussne bhi try kiya magar nahin mila jawaab. To Abhi ne jawaab likh kar diya farzinah ko jissne Ruhi ko dikhaya…. Kitchen ke stairs se Ruhi Abhi ko haath ke ishaare se keh rahi thi ke wo bahot ziada intelligent hai usske mukable kyunke Abhi ne usske likhe saare puzzle solve kar diye the aur Ruhi ne usske ek bhi sawaal ka jawaab nahin de saka.

Aur ussi waqt aangan mein Reza bhi hta, usske haath mein copy book jata tha, dada ji ke haath, Mahesh kek haath aur mehbob kek haath mein se copy hote hue Ruhi ke paas jaata magar koyi jawaab nahin de paata Abhi ke sawaalon ka.

Iss se yeh saabit hota hai ke uss aangan mein sabhi ko Abhi aur Ruhi ke pyar ke baare mein pata chal chuka tha aur sabhi normal the inn donon ke rishte ko lekar. Kissi ko koyi problem nahin dikh raha tha uss waqt.

November ka mahina start hua aur Mehboob ne Saeed se baat kiya ke kia Christmas tak kaam pura nahin ho sakta aur bus road par nahin chal sakta uss din ko? To Saeed ne Abhi se salaah maanga. Abhi to chahta tha jitney ziada din ho sake wahin kaam kare, magar jiss raftaar se kaam badh raha tha full mumkin tha 25th December tak kaam ko khatam karne ki. To Abhi ko kehna pada ke haan ho paayega. To decide kiya gaya ke Sundays ko bhi ab kaam karne aayenge last day tak.

Wohi kiya gaya November ke start se har Sundays ko bhi kaam par aane lage pura team. Magar Sundays ko bhi Saturdays ki taraf 2 baje end karte the.

Engine laa diya gaya tha, to engine ka mechanic jisska naam tha George, aur usske saath 2 apprentice the, weh log engine par kaam karne lage, aur electrician ko bhi laya gaya tamaan wire works karne ke liye bus mein. Ab coach building ki andar ka kaam open chorrna tha taake tamaam wiring bus ke panel ke andar se bichaaya jaaye aur har bulb ki entry karna tha ceilings mein jo plywoods ke the…

Usske liye Mehboob ko plywoods kharidna pada, bade bade sheets the jissko usske ghar mein rakhne ke liye jagah nahin thi to ussko Ruhi ke ghar ki lounge mein rakha gaya tha….. Uss din pehli baar Abhi Ruhi ke lounge mein daakhil hua tha unn sheets ko Tony Mehboob aur Reza ke saath milkar carry karte hue sambhaal kar rakhne ke liye.

Jiss waqt Abhi andar gaya Ruhi so rahi thi, do peher ki neendh mein thi aur jiss kamre mein wo thi, lounge se nazar arahi thi. Bed par Ruhi ko uss tarah se sote hue dekh kar Abhi ko kuch hua. Ruhi sote hue itni khubsurat lag rahi thi, wo saans le rahi thi to usski chaati upar niche ho raha tha aur Abhi kuch der khada ussko nihaarta raha… ussko Dekhte hue Abhi Ruhi mein apni patni ko dekh raha tha aur socha ke ek din khud apne kamre mein ussko uss tarah se sote hue dekhega. Abhi ka mann kiya ke ussi waqt jaakar Ruhi ko apni baahon mein bhar le. Bahot pyar araha tha ussko Ruhi par uss waqt, ek masoom pari jaise soyi hui thi bekhabar, apni ussi nili dress mein, usske gaal par halki si hawa ki chalne se usski ek latt gaal ko sehla rahe the, Abhi uss nazaare ko dekh kar emotional hua….. Ruhi ke karib hone ka usska mann kiya, aur jaie ussne aage badhne ko socha to dekha ke Reza bhi usske bagal mein khada Ruhi ko wo bhi dekh raha tha…..

Abhi ko ghussa aya aur kaha,

“Tu kia dekh raha hai?”

Reza: “Wohi jo tu dekh raha hai!”

Mehboob aur tony nikal chuke the tab tak.

Abhi ko, Reza ko ek thapad maarne ka mann kiya magar ghusse par kaabu rakhte hue Abhi ne uss se kaha,

“Abe saale wo meri hai, iss liye main ussko dekh raha hoon, tujhe ussko weise dekhne ka koyi haq nahin hai samjha ?!”

Tab tak Reza baahar nikalte hue Abhi ko jawaab diya,

“Wo kaise teri ho sakti hai be? Sirf tujhse baat karti hai isska matlab yeh nahin ke wo teri ho gayi baat to mujhse bhi karti hai ti uss hisaab se wo meri bhi hai!”

Abhi ko bahot ghussa aya Reza ke jawaab se aur kaha,

“Abe bakwas karna bandh kar, tujhe pata bhi hai ke mere aur usske bich kia Rishta hai?”

Reza: “kia Rishta hai bata? Teri wife hai wo? Teri fiancée hai wo? Tumne usske saath engagement kiya hai? Nahin nah to tu bakwaas karna bandh kar saale ladki ko badnaam karne ata hai yahan?!”

To be continued….. (2450 words)

Aur ek behtareen update. Superb.
Bhai ye penfriend wali baat pata hai mujhe. Jam main jawani ki dehlij par kadam rakh raha tha to mera bada bhai kissi ladki ki penfriend hua karta tha. Issko main jaanta hoon.
Saeed par mujhe kuch shak sa hai. Abhi ne ussko sab bata diya kahin saeed kuch ghalat nah kare!!
Abhi ki niyat mein to koyi khot nahin magar jitne jiada logon ko pata chalega utne dushman bhi banenge do pyar karne walon ke.
Dekha ek naasamajh agaya nah Reza k roop mein.
Kahan ka ullo ka patha hai jo do premiyon k bich tang ada raha hai ye lalloo. Umeed hai ke isska patt jaldi katega.
Mast update bhai.

Update 7 And It Continued….​

Ruhi ko pata tha ke abhi ussi ko dekhe jaa raha hai, aur ussne nazrein utha kar Abhi ko dekha ek halki si muskaan ke saath. Abhi cigarette pee raha tha, to Ruhi ne apni meethi awaaz mein kaha,

“cigarette pina achi baat nahin hai ji!”

Ab aaguey….

Abhi ne to abhi abhi socha ke din bura guzrega magar sab ulta ho raha tha ussko kitni Khushi hui Ruhi ki uss baat ko sunkar wo bayaan nahin kar sakta….. Abhi ke samajh mein nahin aya ke kia jawaab dein Ruhi ko, wo Abhi ki reply ka wait kar rahi thi, jhaaru lagana bandh kar diya tha khadi thi Abhi ka jawaab paane ke liye ek Muskaan banaaye hue apne honton par…. Abhi ne usski maa ke taraf dekha aur wo Abhi ko hi dekh rahi thi muskuraate hue kyunke ussko pata tha ke Ruhi uss se baat kar rahi hai….

Tab tak Saeed ji Abhi ke paas aa gaye aur kaha,

“Abhi Welding machine ko ek current point mein to lagao, shuru karo yaar!”

To Ruhi ko laga ke wo abhi ko kaam karne ke liye disturb kar rahi hair to wapas jhaaru lagaane lagi Saeed ko dekh kar aur Abhi ne feel kiya ke Saeed bhai ne ussko disturb kiya aur ussko jawaab diya,

“Saeed bhai wo bhi main hi karun? Tony se kaho nah current point mein lagaane ko, mujhe to weld karna hai, aur tubes ko measurement par kaatna hai pehle, aap tubes ki measurement to lelo bhai!”

To Saeed bhai chala gaya Tubes ke taraf aur Abhi wapas Ruhi ko dekha aur kaha,

“sunon please, ek baat puchni hai!”

Ruhi do kadam Abhi ke taraf muskuraati hui aayi aur pucha,

“kia? Cigarrte kyun nahin pina yeh puchoge aap?”

Abhi ne hansste hue kaha,

“are nahin puchna yeh hai ke aap ko main ne kuch der pehle good morning kaha to aap ne jawaab kyun nahin diya?!”

Ruhi heyrani se abhi ke chehre mein dekhte hue pucha,

“What? Aap ne kab mujhse baat kiye, baat to main ne aap se kiya abhi abhi?!”

Abhi: “are yaar, jab tum garden se roses pick kar rahi thi aur main araha tha tab tumko good morning kaha tha nah?!”

Ruhi: “Really? Main ne to kuch nahin suna, sorry then, very good morning to you too and do have a nice day.”

Abhi bahot khush hua aur kaha,

“wow that’s great then, same to you my dear!”

Ruhi ne niche dekhte hue dhire se kaha,

“I am not your ‘dear’ aur aap to acha English bol lete ho to eisa kaam kyun karte ho aap?!”

Abhi: “Why? Iss kaam mein kia buraayi hai bhala?”

Ruhi: “meri mummy kehti hai yeh kaam sahi nahin hai kyunke iss mein future nahin hai!”

Abhi ne usski maa ke taraf dekha aur Ruhi ko jawaab diya,

“tumhari mummy ghalat kehti hai, this job is a perfect one.”

Tab tak Saeed wapas agaya aur thoda bossy hote hue Abhi se kaha,

“Abhi yeh baatein karne ka time nahin kaam karne ka waqt hai nah?!”

Saeed ki baat ko sunkar wahan se Ruhi bhaag chali!

Abhi ko acha nahin laga jiss tone mein Saeed ne Abhi ko Ruhi ke saamne weisa kaha. Magar Ruhi se batein karke Abhi bahot hi khush tha aur ab khud se kaha ke usska din ab bahot majedaar guzrega aaj to.

Abhi phir kaam par lag gaya. Kaam karte waqt of course baar baar Ruhi ke ghar ke taraf dekh raha tha. Abhi ne ek measurement tape lekar bus ki front side ka measurement liya, aur usske motabik lohe ko kaata bus ke front side ki frame weld karne ke liye. Saeed ne wohi kaam bus ki back side par kiya aur jo helper Tony tha wo Abhi ka saath raha aur ek dusra ladka tha Vinay naam se wo Saeed ka help kar raha tha.

Ab front side ke liye lohe ko curve karna tha weld karne se pehle. Yeh kaam garage mein ek bada sa machine mein hota tha, bade bade lohe ko kissi bhi form mein moda jaata tha tab bus ki chasis par weld kiya jata tha, ab yahan sab kaam haathon se karna tha to Abhi ne measure par kaate hue lohe ko ek bada sa hathode se ek dusre purane bus ki engine par rakh kar ek taraf Tony se hold karwaya aur uss lohe par hatoda maarta gaya ussko curve form dene ke liye. Uss se bahot shor ho raha tha. Koyi ek ghante tak abhi ko time hi nahin mila Ruhi ko dekhne ki magar Abhi ko pata nahin tha ke Ruhi apne ghar ke andar se khirki ke paas parde ke kone se Abhi ko wo kaam karte dekh rahi thi aur usski maa bhi dekh rahi thi Abhi ko uss lohe ko form dene ke liye kiss taraah hatoda maar raha tha. Ab wo loha Tony se sambhala nahin jaa raha tha kyun ke jab Abhi uss par hathoda maar raha tha to Tony ke haath mein shock lag raha tha iss liye kayi baar loha uss ke haath se chuth gira, aur ek baar loha jab Tony ke haath se chhuta to wo end wapas Abhi ke thik chehre ke paas laut kar ruka aur jhat se Abhi ne kuch kadam piche liya varna ussko gehra choat lag jata. Ruhi ne wo sab dekha aur usski aah nikli jiss waqt wo loha wapas Abhi ke chehre ke paas gaye to….

Kyunke jab loha bounce hokar gira ek ajeeb sa shor hua aur Tony zor se abhi ka naam chillaya ussko warn karne ke liye to Saeed, Vinay, Mehboob, Ruhi ka dada, Ruhi ki maa sab turant baahar aaye dekhne ko ke kia hua…..

Haath mein wo bada sa hatoda liye jiss action se upar chalaang laga kar Abhi kuda tha uss lohe se bachne ke liye, phir jiss jagah jaa kar Abhi land hua tha haath mein hathode sameth wo ek heroic action tha jissko Ruhi ne admire kiya. Hero lag raha tha Abhi uss action ko karte hue. Aur jahan land hua tha Abhi uss chalaang ke baad wo Ruhi ki terrace par tha, aur thik ussi jagah se ruhi Abhi ko jhaank rahi thi. Aur ussne turant khirki ki parde ko hatta kar abhi se kaha,

“Bahot dangerous hai yeh kaam, aap bahot khatarnaak tarike se abhi hurt ho sakte the, mujhko bahot darr laga jab main ne uss lohe ko aap ke sar ke taraf udh kar aate hue dekha to, mujhe laga ke aap ko lag gayi…. Aap bahot flexible body ke malik ho gymnastic karte ho kia aap? Aap wahan se kaise, jaise udhkar yahan pahunche?!”

Abhi ko bahot hi acha laga Ruhi ko wo sab kehte hue sun kar aur jawaab diya ke garage mein ek sophisticated machine hai jo lohe ko modta hai, yahan kuch nahin hai iss liye haath se karna pad raha hai varna kaam bilkool dangerous nahin hai…. Phir bhi Ruhi ki maa ne bhi join kiya Ruhi ko aur kaha ke dangerous hai yeh kaam. Tab tak Saeed aur Mehboob bhi Abhi ke paas aagaye to Saeed ne kaha ke Tony ki ghalti hai ussko kissi bhi keemat par lohe ko chorrna nahin chahiye tha. Aur Saeed ne Abhi se kaha ke wo khud tony ke jagah ab lohe ko hold karega taake Abhi uss par hathoda maar sake. Jab dobara Abhi jaane laga hatoda maarne to apni meethi awaz mein ruhi ne darte hue abhi se kaha,

“be vey careful please, I am feeling scared!”

Abhi ka dil machal gaya Ruhi ki uss caring words se. kitna khayal rakh rahi thi wo Abhi ka. Abhi ko itna acha laga ke usska dil andar jaise jhomne laga tha.

Kaam jaari rakha gaya…. Aur ek ghanta laga abhi ko bus ki front side ke tamaam lohon ko curve form dene ke liye usske baad ussne welding karna shuru kiya chasis par unn kaate hue aur mode hue tamaam lohon ko. Baar baar Ruhi ke ghar ke andar jhank bhi raha tha ke kahin Ruhi dikhegi ya nahin….

Ruhi nazar nahin aayi magar dusri nal ke paas Ruhi ki maa nazar aayi pathar par kapde dhote hue, aur pata chala ke wo kissi se baat karte hue kapde dho rahi thi to Abhi samajh gaya ke ruhi wahin hogi ghar ke piche wale hisse mein jahan se Abhi ko wo nazar nahin arahi thi…..

Abhi jo lohe tubes weld kiye jaa rahe the bus ki chasis par, wo base the frame ki. Ab uss base se upar aur tubes jode jayenge jo upar tak bus ka form lega. Wo sab karne mein ek mahina lag jaega. Abhi to kaam ki shuruwaat thi.

Der ghante beet gaye aur ek do baar Abhi ne dekha ke ghar ke piche se ek do baar Ruhi ne ussko dekha weld karte hue. Buss jhank rahi thi phir ghar ke piche ho jaati thi, same time apni maa se baat kar rahi thi….. Abhi ko pyas laga aur dekha ke nal hai to ek khali botal lekar gaya paani bharne, ussi bahane Ruhi se ek do baat kar leta, magar usska plan fail hua kyunke tap number one tha yahin bus ke paas, to kyun karib ke tap ko chorr kar piche wale tap mein paani bharne jata?! Phir bhi pani lene se pehle Ruhi ki maa se permission liya ke kia uss nal se paani le sakta hai…. Jiss waqt Ruhi ki maa Abhi ko reply kar rahi thi, Ruhi saamne aayi Abhi ko dekhne ke usski maa se kia keh raha tha wo. Muskura rahi thi aur jab abhi pani bharne laga botal mein to Ruhi ne kaha,

“pani maangte nahin hein, buss le lete hein, agli baar puchna nahin buss nal kholna aur bhar lena okay?!”

Abhi ne muskuraate hue thanks kaha, thik tabhi Ruhi ki maa ne Ruhi se kuch kaha, aur turant Ruhi ne Abhi se kaha,

“Hello? Juice piyoge? Thoda sa juice bana doon kia?!”

Yehi bat keh rahi thi Ruhi se usski maa ke kyun nah thoda sa juice de diya jaaye unn logon ko…

Magar Abhi ne Ruhi se muskuraate hue kaha,

“suno dear, juice sahi hai magar ek problem ho jaega!”

Ruhi heyrani se Abhi ko dekhte hue pucha,

“What? Juice se kia problem ho jaega bhala?”

To abhi ne kaha,

“juice piyunga to cigarrete pine ka mann karega kyunke juice sweet hoga nah? tab tum kahogi ke cigarrte pina acha nahin!”

Abhi ki reply sunkar Ruhi ki maa zor se hanss padi, aur Ruhi ne munh banaate hue kaha,

“to phir thik nahin nahin banaugi juice mat pina cigarrete phir!”

Phir bhi Ruhi ki maa ne Ruhi ko juice serve karne ke liye kaha ussko, magar haath ke ishaare se Abhi ne mana kiya.

Jab Abhi wapas kaam karne laga to Tony ne Abhi se kaha,

“tum ne kaise pata liya uss ladki ko yaar? Kitni khubsurat hai, pyari bhi hai, ek din mile aur tumne ladki pata liye wah yaar!”

Abhi ne Ruhi ke taraf dekhte hue Tony ko jawaab diya,

“abhi pataya kahan hai yaar, abhi to sirf baat cheet chal rahi hai, normal, casual baatein ho rahe hein, pataana to abhi door ki baat hai ….”

Tony ne kaha,

“are bhai saaf dikh raha hai ke wo tumko kitna passand karti hai. Pahaad par chadhne ki zaroorat nahin yeh pata karne ke liye ke ladki tumko kitna passand karti hai saath mein maa bhi hahaha, wife aur saas donon mil gaya tujhe to!”

Abhi ne khush hote hue Tony se kaha,

“tere munh mein ghee shakar yaar, kaash yeh sab sach ho jaaye! Wo mujhko bahot passand hai yaar, I am really in love with her!”

Tony ne kaha,

“yeh bhi saaf dikh raha hai ke you are in love with her, magar tumko shaayad nahin dikh raha magar mujhko dikh raha ke she is also in love with you bhai!!”

Abhi bahot hi khush hua Tony ke baton ko sun kar…. Aur phir aur bi ziada Ruhi ke taraf dekhne laga Abhi. Magar Abhi ko nahin lagta tha ke Ruhi bhi uss se pyar karne lagi hai. Ussko lagta tha ke shayad thoda aakarshit hui hai Abhi se, shayad handsome hai iss liye magar pyar karne lagi yeh nahin dikh raha tha Abhi ko. Abhi ko karna yeh tha ke ussko Ruhi ko khud se pyar karwana tha, Abhi chahta tha ke Ruhi ko bhi Abhi se weise hi pyar ho jaise Abhi ko uss se hone laga hai….

Abhi ne socha phir wo Ruhi ko apne dil ki baat bataega. Abhi Ruhi ke aur paas jaana chahta tha. Abhi to kewal do din hue the; aur Ruhi Abhi ko jaanta bhi kahan hai, donon ek dusre ko achchi tarah se jaan lenge tab Abhi baat ko cherrega aisa socha hai Abhi ne.

Tony ne kaha,

“ziada der mat karna bhai kahin koyi aur baazi nah maar le!”

Yeh sunkar Abhi ko jhatka laga. Pareshan hua wo, aur Ruhi ke chehre mein dekhne laga….. aisa fix dekha Ruhi ke chehre ko ke khud Ruhi hayraan hui aur ishaare se Ruhi ne hi pucha, “kia hua?!”

Abhi ke chehre mein ek udaasi chaah gayi thi, jo shayad Ruhi ne note kiya, Abhi lagataar ussko dekhe jaa raha tha aur Ruhi uncomfortable feel karne lagi…. Ruhi ne phir Abhi ko dekha aur haath ke ishaare se pucha kia hua to Abhi ne naah mein sar hillaya matlab kuch bhi nahin kaha….. phir Abhi ne dekha ke Ruhi ki maa taar par kapde sukhne ke liye taang rahi thi to jaldi sse Abhi bina kuch soche samjhe Ruhi ke taraf gaya…

Abhi ko apne taraf aate dekh kar Ruhi ka chehra laal ho gaya jaise ussko pata tha Abhi uss se kia kehne araha hai, Ruhi kabhi apni maa ko dekhti to kabhi bus mein dusre logon ko kaam karte dekhti phir Abhi ko dekhti… wo kuch ghabra si gayi….

Bus ke andar se Saeed bhai Abhi ko ghusse se dekh raha tha. ussko nahin passand tha ke kaam ke waqt Abhi idhar udhar jaaye…

Abhi Ruhi ke bilkool karib pahuncha aur dheemi awaaz mein, aashikana andaz mein pucha,

“Tumhari life mein koyi hai? Please sach batana? Agar hai to be jhijhak batado please.”

Ruhi hanss padi, chehra laal to hua hi tha aur Abhi ki baat sun kar wo hanssne lagi phir pucha,

“iss sawaal ka ek sawaal se jawaab doon?!”

Abhi usski hanssi ko admire karne laga, kitni khubsurat dikhti hai Ruhi hansste hue. Phir Abhi ne kaha,

“okay wohi sahi bolo to!”

Ruhi ne hansste hue hi pucha,

“yeh sawaal kyun? Jaan sakti hoon?!”

Abhi ne bilkool heyraan hote hue kaha,

“Areeee?! Kamaal hai, yeh koyi jawaab hai? Sawaal bhi nahin fit baithta ab…. Mera sawaal to sawaal hi reh gaya nah?!”

Ruhi ki maa donon ko muskuraate hue dekh rahi thi kapde taar par taangte hue.

Abhi ne phir dhire se kaha,

“please batao nah mere liye ye bahot important hai bolo nah please.”

Ruhi ne intelligently jawaab diya,

“kaise important ho sakta hai bhala? Hum ek dusre ko jaante bhi nahin, abhi do din hue ek dusre se baat kiye hue to kia important ho sakta hai do dinon mein? Mujhe nahin yakeen ke kuch bhi important hai abhi, I don’t believe you!”

Abhi ne socha wo bhi sahi tha.

Ruhi ab blush karne lagi aur apne jeeb ko apne upper lip ke andar se honth ko fullaya, phir muskuraayi Abhi ke chehre mein dekhte hue….. donon ek dusre ke aankhon ki gehraayi mein dekh rahe the… Abhi ne note kiya ke Ruhi ki nazrein usske chehre ko chaaro taraf dekh rahe the, usski peshaani ko dekha usski nazar ne, phir usske gaal ko dekha, tab usske chehre ko dekha tab usske aankhon mein wapas dekha….. aur Abhi ne kaha,

“samajhdaar ko ishara kaafi hai, mujhe jo kehna tha so main ne keh diya, aaguey tumhari marzi miss Ruhi”

Yeh keh kar Abhi mudhne wala tha wapas bus ke paas jaane ke liye magar Ruhi ne ussko yeh kehkar roka,

“bilkool nahin, aap ne kuch bhi kaha nahin, aap ne ek sawaal kiya tha mujhse, kuch kehne aur sawaal karne mein antar hote hein mister Abhi!”

Abhi ne Ruhi ke aankhon ki gehraayi mein dekhte hue kaha,

“mera sawaal hi ishara tha meri baat ka, uss sawaal se ishara mil gaya hoga, samajhdaar to ho tum, to ishara kaafi hai tumko hehehehe!”

Aur Abhi jaane laga wapas, to Ruhi hanssne lagi aur kaha,

“bahot honshiyaar samajhte ho aap apne aap ko nah Abhi?!”

Tab tak Abhi bus ke paas reach ho chuka tha aur mudhkar Ruhi se kaha,

“samajhta nahin hoon Miss Ruhi, main HOON. Honshiyaar hoon main!”

Ruhi ussko dekhti rahi kaafi der tak hansste hue. Apni jagah se baar baar Abhi muskuraate hue Ruhi ko dekhe jaa raha tha weld karte hue, aur Ruhi bhi ab bade pyar se Abhi ko dekhti jaa rahi thi…….

Kapde taar par sukhne ke liyne taangne ke baad Ruhi ki maa ne Ruhi se hansste hue pucha,

“kia keh raha tha Abhi?”

Ruhi thodi sharmaayi aur kaha,

“Puch raha tha ke kia koyi meri life mein hai kia? Hahahaha!”

Ruhi ki maa ne bus ke taraf Abhi ko dekhte hue Ruhi se kaha,

“Kaafi tez hai yeh ladka, yeh puchne agaya bus do din ki mulakaat mein? Hmmm aur tumne kia kaha usse?”

Ruhi ne balkhaate hue kaha,

“kuch nahin kaha main ne, main ne usske sawaal par sawaal se jawaab diya ke wo kyun yeh sawaal kar raha hai mujhse hihihihi!”

Maa: “Aur phir wo chala gaya kia?!”

Ruhi: “nahin bahot tez hai wo sach mein, padha likha lagta hai, English bhi acha bolta hai maa, ussne mujhe kaha ke samajhdar ko ishara kafi hai, aur kaha ke main samajhdar to hoon so samajh jaungi ke ussne ye sawaal kyun kiya mujhse, sach mein honshiyaar hai khud bhi kaha ussne hehehehe!”

Maa ne Ruhi ke chehre mein dekhte hue pucha,

“to ab tu kia karegi? Bata? Kia wo pasand hai tujhe?”

Ruhi ne ek gehri saans lete hue Abhi ke taraf dekha, phir apni maa ke chehre mein ek ajeeb si sikanjh chehre par laate hue kaha,

“pata nahin maa, pata nahin mujhe, kitna handsome hai, hai nah maa? Padha likha bhi hai aur strong hai, kitna lamba hai maa!! Main kia karun maa?!”

Maa ne bhi ek gehri saans liye aur kaha,

“Mujhe kia pata mujhse kyun puch rahi hai, tu bol kia karna hai ab?!”

Ruhi ne phir muskuraate hue apni maa ke taraf dekha aur kaha,

“Abhi kuch nahin kehna mujhe, kuch aur din beet jaane do tab bataungi aap ko aur shaayad ussko bhi….”

[Aakash.]

Abhi is very desperate to hug Ruhi and while we wait for the favorite thing, the mind is happy inside and this is Abhi's first experience, because of this he is even more excited and happy. Abhi prepares himself and is going to meet Ruhi.
Abhi and Ruhi's love filled things, talking to each other cuddle and then Kiss everything was very good. You made the scene very good. Ruhi's behavior is sometimes very strange, there is definitely some mystery, the sooner you bring the mystery to us, the better.
Abhi and Ruhi's love is getting deeper and stronger day by day. The hug moment was the best.
I did not know that the Penfriends communication system, it turns out today, is a very different method and I think it would take a lot of time. Saeed is probably thinking wrong about Ruhi, because I find Ruhi nice and innocent.
Now where did Reza come from in the middle, Reza feels jealous seeing Ruhi and Abhi together. Abhi has romanticized the atmosphere of the entire area. Abhi accepts Ruhi as his wife, but will it ever happen. Reza needs to be taught a lesson.
Both updates were very good. You are writing very well, Now let's see what happens next, Till then waiting for the next part of the story. Thank You...

 

[aman rathore]

Awesome update casi bhai,
behad hi shandaar, lajawab aur amazing update hai bhai,
lagta hai ye reza hi abhi ka ruhi se bichhadne ka madhyam banega,
Waiting for next update

Update 17 A Rival Or What ?​

Unn dinon ko mobile, whatsasp, messenger, twitter, snapchat kuch bhai tha to nahin magar unn dinon ke youngsters kaise communicate karte the? Kia weh log bhi communicate karte ya chat karte the? Ziada door ki baat nahin 1986/87 mein filhaal chal rahi hai yeh kahani. To kia jaise aaj sab communicate karte hein tab hota tha kia?

Haan hota tha, bilkool hota tha. Wo kaise main samjhata hoon. Lagbhag har teenager ka boyfriend hua karta tha tab bhi. Jo college jaate the unnke to hote hi the, baahar ghumne, café mein, library vaghaira mein milte the date par tab bhi. Aur Abhi yehi chahta tha, aisa hi chahta tha ke usski love story chale. Wo chahta tha ek ladki ko passand kare aur iss se pehle ke family walon ko pata chale wo aur ladki mile koyi ek saal tak akele, ek dusre se behad pyar kare, tab apne parents ko bataaye phir engagement kare, tab shaadi. Abhi aisa love story chahta tha apni life mein.

Ab kaise communicate karte the baaki ke youngsters?

Wo hota aisa tha ke unn dinon har newpapers mein ek corner hota tha “PENFRIENDS CORNER” ke naam se. Uss corner mein koyi bhi apna naam aur address likh kar newspaper ko send karta aur usska naam aur address publish hota tha paper mein, aur koyi bhi ussko khat likh sakta tha kyunke usska naam penfriend corner mein aya tha. Teenagers, ladke, ladkiyan, adult, aged log sab uss penfriend corner mein apna naam send karte the, jissko ek saathi ko khat likhna passand tha, new friends banana, desh se bhi aur videsh se bhi.

Uss zarye se bahot saare jodi bane jo aaj shaadi shuda successful couples bhi hein. Ab hota aisa bhi tha ke jiss ladki ka naam uss corner mein aya to ussko 200 se 500 ladke khat likhna shuru kar dete the. Ab ladki ko sab ko reply karna to mumkin hota nahin tha to kuch gine chunon ko reply karti, aur dhire dhire unn mein ek to zaroor passand ata tha…. apne baare mein likha kia karte the, kidhar rehte ho, family members kitne hein etc etc…. sab kuch bolte the apne baare mein. Iss tarah se har kissi ko koyi ek to passand ata hi tha phir apne photos bhi bhejte the chithi ke lifaafe mein. Aaj to whatsap par ek selfie lekar send kar diya jata hai, magar unn dinon postman ka wait karna padta tha chithi aane ka. Ek alag khusi aur mahaul bana rehta jinn logon ke penfriends hote the aur har roz postman ka intezaar kiya jaata tha. Postman ghussa hota aur kehta, “are shaadi karlo tum log ek baar yaar lafda khatam ho har roz aise chitthiyan lane ko mujhe!”

Ab desh bhar mein naujawanon ke beech yeh Silsila chalta tha. well padhe likhe logon ke bich of course.

To Abhi ke bhi penfriends the Ruhi ko jaanne se bahot pehle. Do saal pehle Abhi ne unn sab mein se 3 penfriends se mile bhi the, magar teenon mein se ek bhi Abhi ko personally passand nahin aaye the, to sirf dosti aur writing tak ka naata rakha unn sab se aur dhire dhire ladkiyon ne Abhi ke letters ko reply karna band kar diye kyunke unn ladkiyon ko dusre penfriends mil gaye.

Abhi ke do foreigners penfriends bhi the, ek France se Pascale naam se aur ek Jennifer naam se jo Scotland se thi. Donon ne apni apni tasveerein send kiye the Abhi ko, aur Abhi ne bhi apne pics send kiye the unn donon ko, aur iss saal jinn dinon Abhi Ruhi ke yahan kaam karta tha yeh donon foreigners aur 2 local girls Abhi ke penfriends the. Abhi itna handsome tha ke laldkiyan to ussko passand kar lete the magar Abhi ko koyi passand ata tab nah baat banti? Phir jabse Abhi ne Mehboob ke yahan kaam karna shuru kiya tab se ek bhi penfriend ke khaton ko reply kiya hi nahin tha.

To lifaafe mein chithi ke saath photo share karna aam baat hoti thi unn dinon. Sabhi karte the. Aur aise hi ek din Abhi ne Ruhi se kaha jaise penfriends photo share karte hein kyun wo share nahin karti Abhi ke saath aur kyun ek dusre ko likh nahin sakte? Abhi ne Ruhi ko bataya ke usske bhi penfriends hein foreign mein bhi hai, buss dost hein iss liye Ruhi se apne photo manga magar Ruhi phir bhi nahin maani photos dene ko.

Abhi apne diary mein likhta to kehta ke sala jiss se koyi naata nahin, ziada interest nahin unn ladkiyon ke photos hein usske paas aur jiss se beinteha pyar karta tha usski ek tasveer bhi nahin usske paas.

*******************************************************************************

Uss shaam ko ghar wapas jaate waqt Abhi aur Saeed ek hi seat par baithe the bus mein. Abhi ne Saeed se kaha,

“Bhai main beinteha pyar karta hoon Ruhi se bhai. Main uss se shadi karna chahta hoon. I am serious bhai.”

Saeed: “Mujhe pata hai Abhi. Sabko pata hai wahan. Magar kia ladki bhi tumko pyar karti hai ya aise hi tere saath dillagi kar rahi hai?!”

Abhi: “Karti hai nah bhai bahot pyar karti hai mujhse, wo kaise nahin dikha aap ko bhai?! Aap dekhte nahin har baar mere saamne aa jaati hai, kabhi bhi baat karti hai, har tarah se prove karti hai ke mujhse pyar karti hai, dekha nah lunch time ke baad kitne der tak usske saath tha main?!”

Saeed: “ghar ke piche the tum donon nah? kia kar rahe the utne der tak? Kuch ghalat to nahin kiya nah Abhi?!”

Abhi: ”are nahin bhai, buss kiss kiya ziada kuch nahin!”

Saeed ne ek ajeeb si muskurahat mein kaha,

“kiss karne diya ussne tujhe? Buss itne dinon ke mulakaat mein kiss tak aa gaye tum donon, tab to ladki pahunchi hui hai Abhi, aisa nahin lagta tumko kia?!”

Abhi saeed ka matlab nahin samjha to buss kaha,

“behad chahti hai mujhe wo bhi bhai issi liye nah!”

*****************************************************************************

Usske baad kaam par takriban har roz lunch time mein Abhi Ruhi se milta, donon pyar bhare kuch pal guzaarte. Kiss karte. Pyar ki baatein karte…. Yeh ek hafte tak guzra.

Donon ke bare mein din ba din sabko pata chalta gaya, jitney bhi log chaahe ussi angan ke ya baahar ke bhi jo aate the bus dekhne aur ghanton guzaarte the uss aangan mein sabko pata chal gaya tha ke Ruhi aur Abhi ke beech love hai. Sab khule aam ek dusre ko dikhte, aur ab jiada pyar dikhaate to baaki ke saare logon ko dikhta tha, aur danke ke choat par Abhi kehta tha ke wo Ruhi se bahot pyar karta hai aur jald hi uss se mangni karega, phir shaadi.

Aur ek tha wahan Reza, wo Mehboob ke bus mein conductor ka kaam karta tha, Mehboob ke aur 4 buses chal rahe the nah. To jab bhi wo aata aangan mein jaise ussko jalan hota Abhi aur Ruhi ko close dekh kar, yeh Abhi ne notice kiya tha. Reza koyi 23 se 25 ka naujawaan tha. Aur wo uss mohalle ka rehne wala tha aur Ruhi se usski jaan pehchaan thi pehle se kyun ke wahin ka rehne wala tha aur uss aangan mein usska ana jana tha pehle se.

To kayi baar aise ghatnaayein hue jahan kabhi Abhi Ruhi se kuch kehna chahta to Reza bich mein khada rehta, unn donon ko baat nahin karne deta, ya kabhi Ruhi kuch Abhi ko dene arahi ho to wo chiz Reza le leta tab Abi ko deta, ya jab Abhi aur Ruhi terrace ke paas baat kar rahe hote to Reza wahan aakar khada ho jaata aur ek saath baat karta Abhi aur Ruhi se. Abhi ko bahot ghusa ata tha magar kuch kehta nahin tha Reza se. Par Ruhi se kehta tha ke Reza weisa kyun karta hai, to Ruhi kehti ke ussko ignore karne ko kyun ke wo short minded hai, aur sahi mein wo Reza short minded hi tha.

Iss Reza ke baare mein baad mein kuch aur aega issi liye issko yahan introduce karna pada.

Baaki sab mamool par chal rahe the uss aangan mein. Ruhi ab bekaraar rehne lagi thi Abhi ke bina aisa anumaan hota tha kyunke wo had se ziada baahar aati thi, bus ke paas aati, Abhi ko dekhti, uss se muskuraati, jeeb se mock karti, etc. Abhi har roz zoron se seeti bajaate hue wo geet gata “pyar karte hein hum tumhein itna”

Abhi ki seeti mashoor ho gayi thi uss aangan mein uss gaane ke sur mein bajte hue. Aur itna zor se whistle karta ke door tak sunaayi deta aur jitney bhi ghar aas paas the sab sunte the aur sabko pata chal jaata tha ke Abhi Ruhi ke liye wo tune ka seeti bajaata hai.

Ek shaam ko Shweta, Farzina aur Ruhi aangan mein ek copy book hath mein liye kuch game khel rahe the, aur Farzina bus mein aayi Abhi ke paas aur ek puzzle likh kar pucha. Abhi ne fatafat jawaab likh kar de diya. Phir baad mein pata chala ke wo puzzle Ruhi ne likh kar diya tha Farzinah ko guess karne ke liye aur Farzina ne Abhi ki help se jawaab paa liya aur jaakar Ruhi ko dikhaya.

Usske baad, Abhi ke kuch puzzles jaise sawaal likhe aur Farzinah ko jaa kar Ruhi se usska jawaab likhne ko kaha. Ruhi ko samajh mein nahin aya. Dada ji wahin aangan mein ek chothe se chair par baithe bachon ko aate jaate dekh rahe the to ek baar ussne copy book manga dekhne ke liye ke kia ussko puzzle ka jawaab aega… ussne bhi try kiya magar nahin mila jawaab. To Abhi ne jawaab likh kar diya farzinah ko jissne Ruhi ko dikhaya…. Kitchen ke stairs se Ruhi Abhi ko haath ke ishaare se keh rahi thi ke wo bahot ziada intelligent hai usske mukable kyunke Abhi ne usske likhe saare puzzle solve kar diye the aur Ruhi ne usske ek bhi sawaal ka jawaab nahin de saka.

Aur ussi waqt aangan mein Reza bhi hta, usske haath mein copy book jata tha, dada ji ke haath, Mahesh kek haath aur mehbob kek haath mein se copy hote hue Ruhi ke paas jaata magar koyi jawaab nahin de paata Abhi ke sawaalon ka.

Iss se yeh saabit hota hai ke uss aangan mein sabhi ko Abhi aur Ruhi ke pyar ke baare mein pata chal chuka tha aur sabhi normal the inn donon ke rishte ko lekar. Kissi ko koyi problem nahin dikh raha tha uss waqt.

November ka mahina start hua aur Mehboob ne Saeed se baat kiya ke kia Christmas tak kaam pura nahin ho sakta aur bus road par nahin chal sakta uss din ko? To Saeed ne Abhi se salaah maanga. Abhi to chahta tha jitney ziada din ho sake wahin kaam kare, magar jiss raftaar se kaam badh raha tha full mumkin tha 25th December tak kaam ko khatam karne ki. To Abhi ko kehna pada ke haan ho paayega. To decide kiya gaya ke Sundays ko bhi ab kaam karne aayenge last day tak.

Wohi kiya gaya November ke start se har Sundays ko bhi kaam par aane lage pura team. Magar Sundays ko bhi Saturdays ki taraf 2 baje end karte the.

Engine laa diya gaya tha, to engine ka mechanic jisska naam tha George, aur usske saath 2 apprentice the, weh log engine par kaam karne lage, aur electrician ko bhi laya gaya tamaan wire works karne ke liye bus mein. Ab coach building ki andar ka kaam open chorrna tha taake tamaam wiring bus ke panel ke andar se bichaaya jaaye aur har bulb ki entry karna tha ceilings mein jo plywoods ke the…

Usske liye Mehboob ko plywoods kharidna pada, bade bade sheets the jissko usske ghar mein rakhne ke liye jagah nahin thi to ussko Ruhi ke ghar ki lounge mein rakha gaya tha….. Uss din pehli baar Abhi Ruhi ke lounge mein daakhil hua tha unn sheets ko Tony Mehboob aur Reza ke saath milkar carry karte hue sambhaal kar rakhne ke liye.

Jiss waqt Abhi andar gaya Ruhi so rahi thi, do peher ki neendh mein thi aur jiss kamre mein wo thi, lounge se nazar arahi thi. Bed par Ruhi ko uss tarah se sote hue dekh kar Abhi ko kuch hua. Ruhi sote hue itni khubsurat lag rahi thi, wo saans le rahi thi to usski chaati upar niche ho raha tha aur Abhi kuch der khada ussko nihaarta raha… ussko Dekhte hue Abhi Ruhi mein apni patni ko dekh raha tha aur socha ke ek din khud apne kamre mein ussko uss tarah se sote hue dekhega. Abhi ka mann kiya ke ussi waqt jaakar Ruhi ko apni baahon mein bhar le. Bahot pyar araha tha ussko Ruhi par uss waqt, ek masoom pari jaise soyi hui thi bekhabar, apni ussi nili dress mein, usske gaal par halki si hawa ki chalne se usski ek latt gaal ko sehla rahe the, Abhi uss nazaare ko dekh kar emotional hua….. Ruhi ke karib hone ka usska mann kiya, aur jaie ussne aage badhne ko socha to dekha ke Reza bhi usske bagal mein khada Ruhi ko wo bhi dekh raha tha…..

Abhi ko ghussa aya aur kaha,

“Tu kia dekh raha hai?”

Reza: “Wohi jo tu dekh raha hai!”

Mehboob aur tony nikal chuke the tab tak.

Abhi ko, Reza ko ek thapad maarne ka mann kiya magar ghusse par kaabu rakhte hue Abhi ne uss se kaha,

“Abe saale wo meri hai, iss liye main ussko dekh raha hoon, tujhe ussko weise dekhne ka koyi haq nahin hai samjha ?!”

Tab tak Reza baahar nikalte hue Abhi ko jawaab diya,

“Wo kaise teri ho sakti hai be? Sirf tujhse baat karti hai isska matlab yeh nahin ke wo teri ho gayi baat to mujhse bhi karti hai ti uss hisaab se wo meri bhi hai!”

Abhi ko bahot ghussa aya Reza ke jawaab se aur kaha,

“Abe bakwas karna bandh kar, tujhe pata bhi hai ke mere aur usske bich kia Rishta hai?”

Reza: “kia Rishta hai bata? Teri wife hai wo? Teri fiancée hai wo? Tumne usske saath engagement kiya hai? Nahin nah to tu bakwaas karna bandh kar saale ladki ko badnaam karne ata hai yahan?!”

To be continued….. (2450 words)

Nice update again bro. Less romantic still good and informative too. I also had no idea about penfriendship.just 2 days ago U went through an article regarding penfriends. And here you also hv mentioned the same.
I never knew that way if communication existed. I find that very interesting but of course it takes time and patience. Since there were no internet etc, so people then should hv been used to communicate that way as it was the only mean. Thanks very much for describing that for us mate.
And so a target has been set to complete the bus by 24th December so that it can be on the road on the 25th right? Means they are accelerating. So Abhi has less than 2 months to be with Ruhi. It means that Abhi also had to be fast to succeed with Ruhi. Their love story also will be taking a speed
The character Reza seems to be a real disturbance now. I wonder if he is not going to be the cause of the lovers separation.
Nice going dude.

Update 8 The Next Early Morning​

Ruhi ne phir muskuraate hue apni maa ke taraf dekha aur kaha,

“Abhi kuch nahin kehna mujhe, kuch aur din beet jaane do tab bataungi aap ko aur shaayad ussko bhi….”

Ab aaguey….

Wo din kuch weise hi beeta, ek dusre ko dekhte, kabhi kitchen ki stairs par Ruhi aati to kabhi ghar ke piche wale hisse par washing stone ke paas. Donon ek dusre ko dekhte, muskurate, aankhon aankhon se ishaare karte etc.

Sham hui, bahot saare log aa gaye uss aangan mein dekhne ke bus kaise ban rahe hein…. Ruhi ka bada bhai bhi agaya, usska naam tha Manoj. Matlab Ruhi ke bhaiyon ke naam the Manoj aur Mahesh, Kissi firm mein kaam karta tha baaton baaton mein Abhi ko yeh pata chala usske baare mein.

Ruhi ke dada ji bhi kayi baar Abhi se baat karne aya tha usske paas jab Abhi weld kar raha tha. Budhe ko welding ke baare mein kaafi pata tha, uss baare mein baat kar raha tha Abhi se. Aur jab jab Abhi Ruhi ke taraf dekh raha tha to dada ji Abhi ko observe kar raha tha aur andar andar muskura raha tha.

Ab shaam ko ghar wapas jaane ke time kuch ziada log ekatha ho jaate the aangan mein to Ruhi door rehti thi, saamne kum aati thi kyunke sab log notice kar lete unn donon ko. Aur Abhi yeh chahta tha ke usske jaane ke waqt Ruhi usske saamne rahe, jaane se pehle wo Ruhi ko dekhte hue wahan se nikalna chahta tha. aur hua yeh ke jab Abhi washroom gaya khudko fresh karne to Ruhi kitchen mein bhi nahin dikhi.

Manoj aas paas tha iss liye shayad Ruhi doorie barak rahi thi Abhi ne socha, magar kal shaam ko to Manoj ke haziri mein hi Abhi ne Ruhi ko goodbye wave kiya tha to aaj kyun Ruhi door thi, wo thi kahan? Abhi ko kuch bhi acha nahin lag raha tha uss waqt. Bechain ho raha tha aur pray kar raha tha ke jaane se pehle Ruhi usske ssaamne aa jaaye.

Jab Abhi tayyar ho gaya, change kar liya, hair brush kar liya aur kitchen mein dekha to sirf Ruhi ki mummy thi wahan Ruhi nahin thi, Abhi udaas ho gaya aur socha ke kitchen ke stair par ja kar uss se puche ke Ruhi kidhar hai….

Phir abhi ne socha ke kia Ruhi kahin ghar ke andar se ussko dekh to nahin rahi? Kia ussne jaan bujh kar weisa kiya taake dekh sake ke Abhi ussko dhundta hai ya nahin? To Abhi ghar ke andar dekhne laga, khidkiyon ke paas dekhne laga ke koyi pardah hille, magar kuch nahin dikha aur aakhir mein ussko nikalna pada washroom se. Saeed bhai usska wait kar raha tha bus ke paas.

Jab Abhi ne mudhkar kitchen ke stairs par dekha to koyi nahin tha aaj usski maa bhi nahin thi wahan. Abhi ne socha kal kitna haseen shaam thi aur aaj kitna alag hai kyunke Ruhi saamne nahin hai.

Jab Tap number one ke paas aya abhi to ussne Ruhi ke dada ji ko goodbye kaha aur oonchi awaaz mein kaha,

“Acha main ab chalta hoon bade miyan kal milte hein bye!”

Abhi ne jaan bujh kar oonche awaaz mein baat kiya taake andar se Ruhi ussko sunein aur ussko pata chale ke wo wapas ghar jaa raha hai.

Main road par nikalte nikalte abhi ne kayi baar mudhkar stairs par dekha magar Ruhi nahin dikhi, Abhi ne ghar ke piche wale hisse par bhi dekha jahan kapde dhote hein wahan bhi dekha magar Ruhi kahin bhi nahin dikhi aur Abhi bahot udaas nikla wahan se iss shaam ko.

Wahan se ghar jaate waqt bus mein sirf Ruhi ke baare mein sochta gaya, ussko ek ghutan si feel hone laga tha, ek bhaaripan jaisa tha usske seene par, ek bojh feel ho raha tha usse, sirf iss liye ke Ruhi nazar nahin aayi aaj shaam ko. Ruhi ko dil mein basaaye, mann mein bithaaye safar kiya Abhi ne ghar tak.

Aur apni special diary mein sab likhne laga aaj ke din ke baare mein. Khud muskuraate hue likh raha tha ke kiss tarah se aaj Ruhi se baatein hui, kiss tarah uss se puchne gaya tha ke kia usski life mein koyi hai, aur Ruhi ka jawaab bhi likha sab kuch ek ek pal ko likha Abhi ne…….

Sab kuch likhne ke baad bahot der tak sochta raha ke kyun aaj shaam ko Ruhi nazar nahin aayi, yeh baat Abhi ko bahot disturb karne laga tha.

Raat der tak neendh nahin arahe the Abhi ko. Ussko sirf Ruhi nazar arahi thi har jagah. Sote, jaagte, uthte, baithte sirf Ruhi bassa hua tha Abhi ke khayaalon mein, bade mushkil se aankh lagi aur ussko laga ke buss kuch minaton mein subha ho gayi.


*******************************************************************

Aangan mein chalte hue daakhil ho raha tha Abhi Ruhi ki yadon mein doobe, aur garden mein dekha ke kahin Wo phir se dikh nah jaaye gulaab pick karte hue. Abhi aate waqt yehi soch liya tha ke kaash aaj bhi wo garden mein dikhe to Abhi aaj ruk kar uss se baat karega aur puchega ke kahan thi kal shaam ko, kyun ussko jaate hue nahin dekha…. Magar Ruhi to aaj subha garden mein thi hi nahin… aur abhi ne khud se kaha,

“sala aisa kyun hota hai har baar? Sab ulta kyun hone lagta hai, jab bhi kuch kehna chahun, to mauka saamne ata hi nahin…”

Aur wo washroom reach hua. Ruhi ke kitchen mein dekha, khaali tha kitchen. Koyi nahin tha wahan. Subha ke 6 baje the. Kaam to 7 baje start hota hai aur 6 baje Abhi wahan pahunch gaya tha, sirf aur sirf Ruhi ke liye. Log so rahe the aur Abhi kaam ke site par aa chuka tha.

Ab Abhi ko Khushi hoti ke Ruhi ussko apne achche kapdon mein dekhti iss se pehle ke wo kaam karne wala purana kapda pehenta. Abhi subha subha fresh tha, dhoop mein jhulsa hua nahin tha, usska skin fresh tha, shave kiya tha aane se pehle, aftershave lagaya tha, thoda perfume bhi lagaya tha shirt par; ek Wrangler Blue Jeans aur ek safed shirt pehna hua tha. ek pair of khubsurat sport shoes mein tha… To chahta tha ke Ruhi ke saamne weise pesh aaye, taake wo Ruhi ko acha dikhe. Abhi yeh bhi soch kar early aya tha ke 6 se 7 baje tak pura ek ghanta hoga usske paas Ruhi se baat karne ko agar wo saamne aati to…. Magar wo dikh hi nahin rahi thi. Sab se pehla sawaal abhi ko yeh karna tha Ruhi se ke kal shaam ko wo kidhar thi, kyun saamne nahin aayi, aur aaj Abhi Ruhi se yeh request karne wala tha ke aaj se har shaam ko jab usska wapas jaane ka time aaye to Ruhi usske saamne rahe, kitchen ke stairs par present rahe taake Abhi ussko goodbye keh sake, ussko wave kar sake. Yeh kehna tha Abhi ko Ruhi se aaj. Magar wo dikhe tab nah?!

Abhi sochne laga kia Ruhi abhi tak so rahi hogi? Kia wo late uthti hogi? Phir abhi ne khud se kaha ke nahin kal to garden mein takriban issi waqt wo gulab tod rahi thi, matlab jaag jaati hai wo savere. Kia ghar ke andar se Ruhi Abhi ko dekh rahi hogi? Kia jaan bujh kar wo Abhi ko tarpa rahi thi? Yeh sab soch raha tha Abhi.

Abhi ne kapde nahin badle, socha ke 7 baje jab sab log ajayenge tab change karega. Weise hi raha. Apna bag rakha, ek cigarrete jalaya aur aangan mein ek walk karne laga. Bus ke piche wale hisse par dekhne gaya ke saeed ne kia kaam kiya hai… aur uss jagah se kapde dhone wale hisse ko dekha, to usske samajh mein aya ke kal jiss jagah par Ruhi khadi apni maa se baat kar rahi thi uss jagah se Ruhi ussko dikhta agar uss waqt Abhi bus ke piche wale hisse par kaam kar raha hota….. to Abhi ab charon taraf aangan ka moaena karne laga…. Dekhne laga ke kiss kiss jagah se kidhar behtar nazara hota hai Ruhi ke ghar, stairs, kitchen, kapde dhone wala place sab kidhar se best dikhta hai. Wo sab check kiya Abhi ne…..

Abhi ne yaad kiya ke first din ko Ruhi ek baar uss jagah se guzri thi jab apni cousin ke ghar se nikal ke apne ghar tak gayi thi, jiss din bus ko tow karke jungle se yahan laaya gaya tha. Ab Abhi ko yaad aya ke uss din ko ussne pehli baar Ruhi ko dekha tha. Uss roz Ruhi ek grey churidar mein thi aur haath mein do books liya hua tha ussne. To Abhi ko yeh bhi yaad aya ke ussne Ruhi ke haath mein ek Sydney Sheldon wala novel dekha tha uss din ko….. Aur ab Abhi samjha ke Ruhi read karti hai… khud Abhi ki taraah Ruhi ko kitabein padhna passand hai, wo apni cousin ke yahan se kitabein lene aayi thi, aur uss roz ghar ke samne wale door se andar gayi thi Ruhi haath mein kitabon ko liye.

To yeh sab yaad karte hue Abhi uss jagah par chal raha tha jahan se Ruhi guzri thi…. uss garden mein dekh raha tha jahan kal Ruhi gulaab tod rahi thi…., uss terrace ko dekh raha tha jahan Ruhi jhadu laga rahi thi, uss pathar ko dekh raha tha jahan usski maa kapde dho rahi thi…. Abhi ko uss aangan se pyar ho gaya jaise. Iss liye ke uss aangan ke har kone mein Ruhi bassi hui thi…

Abhi uss aagan ke chaaron awr dekh raha tha, ussko wo aangan sirf Ruhi ki yaad dila rahe the, Ruhi bassi hui thi wahan ke fiza mein, wahan ke hawa mein, wahan ke phoolon mein. Usski galiyon mein bhi sirf Ruhi bassi hui thi Abhi ke liye. Abhi chal kar main road par gaya. Road se seedha Ruhi ka ghar dikh raha tha, kitchen ki stairs dikh rahe the, Abhi ne socha ke yahan se bhi wo Ruhi ko dekh paega agar wo buss stair par ek baar khadi ho jaaye.. uss gali mein khada hokar Abhi Ruhi ko soch hi raha tha stair par dekhte hue ke jaise ek jaadu hua aur Ruhi nazar aayi stair par seedha main road par dekhte hue!!

Abhi ka dil zor se dhadka Ruhi ko dekh kar. Wo kal wali pale blue night gown mein thi, aur ussne Abhi ko dekh kar turant wapas andar ghuss gayi. To Abhi jaldi jaldi chal kar washroom ke taraf badha iss umeed se ke kitchen mein Ruhi ko dekh paega, wo wahin hogi kyunke uss ne abhi abhi ussko raaste par dekha….

Jab tak chalte hue Abhi washroom reach hua aur kitchen ke andar dekha to koyi bhi nahin tha. Abhi ko thoda ghussa aya. Sochne laga ke kyun chali gayi jab ussko pata hai ke main agaya hoon to?.... Phir Abhi sochne laga ke kia Ruhi sach mein stair par nikli thi ya yeh usska vehem tha? kia wo Ruhi ko itna soch raha tha ke wo usske khayaalon mein aayi thi assal mein wo Stairs par thi hi nahin? Abhi ne socha ke pyar ka aisa bhi assar ho sakta hai ke koyi yahan hai hi nahin phir bhi nazar arahi hai ussko? Wo kahin paagal to nahin hone laga tha? apna dimaaghi santulan khone to nahin laga tha Abhi pyar mei doob kar? Yehi sab soch raha tha Abhi…. 6.20 hue the, Abhi ne socha 45 mins se kum hai ab usske paas, kaash Ruhi kitchen mein aajaaye, wo pray karne laga ke God Ruhi ko kitchen mein bhej de jaldi se…..

Phir achanak Abhi ne khud se kaha,

“are agar wo meri tarah books padhti hai to wo zaroor book padh rahi hogi, matlab kal shaam ko bhi nahin dikhi thi kyunke book padh rahi hogi….”

Abhi khud ek bookworm tha, ussko achi tarah se pata tha book padhne wale ek baar agar padhne baith jaaye to uthte nahin hai, wo nah kuch sunte hai, nah kissi ki awaaz nah koyi shor sharaaba, unke concentration sirf book par hota hai…. Aur phir Abhi ne socha kitna acha pair hoga donon ka, donon ke taste same hein padhne ki latt donon ko hein wo bhi English book padhne ki latt……

6.30 hua aur Abhi himmat haar chuka tha. har ek minat ussko ek ghanta lag raha tha, har ek lamha ek ghata…… ussko yakeen ho gaya ke Ruhi read kar rahi hogi to jab tak wo book ko khatam nahin karegi wo saamne aane wali nahin hai. Wo phir bhi duaein maangta gaya khuda se ke usski Ruhi ko ek baar kitchen mein bhej dein….. aur Abhi ki Khuda se sunli….; duah qubool ho gayi; Ruhi kitchen mein aayi, uss night gown mein nahin balke ek two-piece mein, white blouse aur red skirt mein….

Ussko dekh ke Abhi ka dil achanak zor se dhadka, ek lamba saans liya Abhi ne aur dekha ke Ruhi ke haath mein ek cup tha jiss mein wo chai bhar rahi thi sar mez par jhuki hui thi, baal khule the aur weise hi jhuke hue gardan ke saath Ruhi ne ek halki Muskaan ke saath gardan ko left ki tarah mudhkar Abhi ko dekha. Abhi issi intezaar mein tha ke wo usske taraf dekhe taake wo uss se baat kar sake. Magar doorie 3 metre ke the to kaise baat karta, oonchi awaaz mein baat karna padta iss liye jiss waqt Ruhi ne usske taraf dekha to haath ke ishaare se bina awaaz ke jaise sound mute tha weise abhi ne ishaare se Good Morning kaha Ruhi ko. Ruhi muskuraayi aur weise hi honton ko “good morning” word pronounce karte hue ek khubsurat muskurahat se Ruhi ne bhi wish kiya Abhi ko, aur Ruhi wahin mez ke paas kitchen mein baith gayi chai sip karte hue. Abhi ko achcha laga ke apne kaam karne wale kapde mein change karne se pehle hi ruhi ne ussko ache kapdon mein dekha. Abhi ko pata tha ke wo handsome dikh raha tha aur chahta tha ke Ruhi par ek impression banaaye apni normal dress mein. Ruhi chai peete hue Abhi ke taraf hi dekh rahi thi.

Subha savere ka mausam tha, khamoshi chhaayi hui thi, fiza khubsurat tha, kuch parinde ki awaazein sunaayi de rahe the, ek chidya Ruhi ki kitchen ke upar baitha chun chun kar raha tha. Ziada tar log ab tak so rahe the, bahot kum log the main road par bhi iss waqt. Mehboob bhi abhi tak utha nahin tha aur nah hi Rahima dikh rahi thi halaan ke usski bhi kitchen ka darwaza khula hua tha. To Abhi ne Ruhi ke stairs par jaane ko socha. Socha ke ek do baat phusphussate hue hi kar lega usske saath. Sirf 3 metres ka faasla tey karna tha to Abhi ne kadam badhaya Ruhi ke kitchen ke taraf ussko dekhte hue…..

Jaise Ruhi ne dekha ke Abhi usske taraf aa raha hai to jhat se uth kadhi hui aur haath ke ishaare se nah mein hillaya Abhi ko… Abhi ne kadam rok liya ussko dekhte hue…. Ruhi mudhkar kitchen mein apne piche dekha, phir wapas Abhi ko dekha, to Abhi ne Ruhi ke piche dekha yeh soch kar ke koyi usske piche se ussko dekh raha hoga, iss liye wo jahan tha wahin theher gaya, magar Ruhi ko dekhta raha. Ruhi uss pal khadi ho chuki thi aur baar baar apne piche dekh rahi thi jiss se eisa lag raha tha ke ya to koyi usske taraf ghar ke andar se kitchen mein araha tha ya to koyi ussko dekh raha tha….

Abhi ko bechaini hone laga, ussko Ruhi se kehna tha ke aaj shaam ko wo idhar hi present rahe jiss waqt wo wapas ghar jaane lage. Aur tabhi Rahima apni kitchen mein aayi aur Abhi ko hello kehkar ussko ek cup chai de diya kal subha ki tarah. Rahima apni nighty mein thi. Ek pink colour ki nighty pehni hui thi ussne. Abhi ko disturb feel hua ussko uss libaas mein dekh kar aur apne nazron ko jhuka liya uss ne. Magar Rahima seedha Abhi ke chehre mein dekh rahi thi muskuraate hue. Rahima ki kitchen ka darwaza thik uss washroom mein hi khulta tha, assal mein wo ek separate garage ki tarah tha aur kapde dhone ki ek pathar bhi tha uss washroom mein, washroom naam diya magar tha wo kapde dhone ki jagah jahan sab worker kaam ke baad khud ko wash karte the… matlab Abhi thik ek kadam kitchen ke darwaze ke paas hi tha, aur Ruhi ki kitchen 3 metres ki doorie par tha…. Rahima ne Abhi se kaha,

“Tum bahot savere aajate ho har roz, kitne baje ghar se nikalte ho? aur uthte kitne baje ho hmm?”

Abhi ko uss se baat hi nahin karna tha, wo to Ruhi ko dekh raha tha; phir bhi jawaab to dena tha Rahima ko, to Abhi ne bina Rahima ko dekhe, balke Ruhi ke taraf dekhte hue Rahima ko jawaab diya. Kaha ke ussko subha ko savere uthne ki aadat hai aur yahan ka kaam bahot bada hai iss liye jaldi chala aata hai.

Ab udhar se jab Ruhi ne abhi ko baat karte dekha to ussko pata chal gaya ke Rahima ki kitchen mein iss waqt sirf wohi ho sakti hai, to Ruhi ne Abhi ke taraf dekhte hue, apne chai ko khatam karke cup ko thoda zor se mez par patka aur wahan se uth kar andar chali gayi. Abhi ko saaf samajh mein agaya ke Ruhi naraaz ho gayi kyunke wo Rahima se baat kar raha tha. Abhi ne socha are kia baat ho gayi, Rahima malkin hai bus ki, usske yahan kaam karta hoon ussne mujhse baat ki to main kaise ussko reply nah karun?

Ab Abhi ko ghussa aane laga Ruhi ki naarazgi par, aur Abhi ne apne kapde change karne ko socha ab. Tab tak Ruhi wapas aayi, aur thik jab wo kitchen mein aayi to Abhi Rahima ko cup wapas kar raha tha aur kyunke Rahima nighty mein thi usskki nangi baazu dikha Ruhi ko Abhi ke haath se cup lete hue, ussko fir ghussa aya aur wo munh banaate hue phir wapas chali gayi. Iss baar Abhi ne Ruhi ko munh banaate hue dekha aur ab Abhi ko hanssi aayi usski naraazgi par.

Aur Abhi ne change karna shuru kiya tab tak Rahima ghar ke andar chali gayi aur Ruhi phir kitchen mein aayi, Abhi ne shirt utaar diya tha, aur Ruhi ko dekha to wapas shirt ko pehna aur Ruhi ke kitchen ke taraf badha magar phir Ruhi ne haath ke ishaare se ussko wapas jaane ko kaha…. Abhi phir ruka aur ab ussne ishaare se Ruhi ko kuch kaha jo Ruhi nahin samjhi to Ruhi ne apne honthon ko “KIA?” ke form banaate hue Abhi se pucha….

Tab Abhi ne Ruhi ko stairs par aane ka ishara kiya. Ruhi ne munh fula kar nah mein sar hillaya. Abhi ne zid kiya ke ya to wo stairs par aaye ya Abhi usski kitchen ke stairs par aega. Ruhi samajh gayi aur apne piche mudhkar dekha aur Abhi ko ishaare se apne piche ungli se ishara karte hue kuch kaha jo iss baar Abhi nahin samjha. Magar itna abhi samjha ke ishaare se Ruhi shayad kehna chahti hai ke koyi hai wahan par jo ussko dekh raha ya rahi hai….

Aur tab tak Tony agaya, 6.45 ho gaye the. Saeed nahin aya tha tab tak. Ruhi ne Tony ko dekha, Tony ne ussko hello kaha aur Ruhi ne apne sar ko jhukaate hue Tony hello kiya. Phir Abhi ne weise hi ishaare se Ruhi ko piche ke nal ke paas aane ko kaha, aur Ruhi ke okay kaha. To jaldi se Abhi gaya Ruhi ke ghar ke uss hisse par jahan washing stone tha. Wahan ek khidki bhi tha, jiss par Ruhi aayi aur khidki se abhi ko dekhte hue pucha,

“ofo kia keh rahe ho aap main kuch nahin samajh rahi!”

Abhi ne direct pucha,

“Tum kal shaam ko kahan thi jab main ghar wapas jaane laga tha?”

Ruhi ne muskuraate hue pucha,

“kyun? Main kahin bhi rahun aap ko kyun bataun?!”

Abhi ke samajh mein nahin aya ke ab kia kahen, ussne yeh reply to nahin expect kiya tha Ruhi se.

To Ruhi ne khud sawaal kiya,

“Aap abhi kiss se baatein kar rahe the?”

Abhi samajh gaya ke Ruhi Rahima ki baat kar rahi thi. To jawaab diya,

“Tumko to pata hai kiss se main baat kar raha tha to kyun puch rahi ho? Mujhe batao ke tum kal kyun nahin dikhi yaar!”

Ruhi: “wo har subha tumko chai deti hai?”

Abhi: “hmm kal bhi diya tha main savere aajata hoon nah?!”

Ruhi: “hmmm kal matlab jab main gulaab tod rahi thi aur aap ne mujhe good morning kaha tha tab?!”

Abhi: “oh yeh baat hai to tumne suna tha jab main ne tumko good morning kaha tha kal aur mujhse kaha ke kuch suna hi nahin tha tumne! Bad manners for not replying a greeting!”

Ruhi hanss padi aur kaha,

“wo main ghabra gayi thi nah, aap achanak saamne dikh gaye the subha subha to meri samajh mein nahin aya ke main kia karun, main darr gayi thi aap ko achanak dekh kar issi liye meri awaaz hi nahin nikli thi aap ko jawab dene ke liye!”

Abhi ne muskuraya aur pucha,

“ab to bata do ke kal tum kidhar thi shaam ko!”

Ruhi: “kal? Meri aankh lag gayi thi jab aap jaa rahe the.”

Abhi: “shaam 5.30 ko tum so rahi thi? Main nahin maanta, tum andar se mujhko zaroor dekh rahi hogi nah? Tumne jaan bujh kar weisa kiya mujhko tadpaane ke liye hai nah bolo?!”

Ruhi ne apni kehuni ko windows ke kone par tikaate hue kaha,

“Main weisa kyun karungi bhala? Main to har shaam ko kitchen mein mummy ki help karti hoon…… wo kia hai ke main kitab padh rahi thi aur padhte padhte aankh lag gayi thi, thik aap logon ke jaane ke baad main kitchen mein gayi, tab baahar dekha to koyi bhi nahin tha aap log jaa chuke the!”

Abhi ne kaha,

“oh yeh baat hai to ek kaam karna aaj ke baad mere liye; karogi?!”

Ruhi ne muskuraate hue pucha,

“main kyun aap ke liye koyi kaam karungi?” aur hanss padi Ruhi.

Abhi ne phir bhi kaha,

“Please aaj se har shaam ko mere jaane ke waqt tum please mere saamne rehna, ya to stair par present rehna ya yahan iss khidki par rehna, main tumko har roz jaate hue dekhna chahta hoon, tumko bye wave karna chahta hoon, tumhari chehre ko dekhte hue jaana chahta hoon, itna karogi mere liye please?!”
