Ek Anokha Bandhan “Ye main kaha hun. main to apne kamre mein neend ki goli ley kar shoyi thi. main yaha kaise aa gayi ? kiska kamra hai ye ?” aankhe khulte hi zarina ke man mein hazaaron sawaal ghumne lagte hain. Ek anjaana bhaiy uske man ko gher leta hai. Vo kamre ko bade gor se dekhti hai. “kahi main sapna to nahi dekh rahi” zarina sochti hai. “nahi nahi ye sapna nahi hai…par main hun kaha?” zarina hairaani mein pad jaati hai.Vo himmat karke dheere se bistar se khadi ho kar dabe paanv kamre se baahar aati hai. “bilkul shunshaan sa maahol hai…aakhir ho kya raha hai.” zarina ko saamne bane kitchen mein kuch aahat shunaayi deti hai. “kitchen mein koyi hai…kaun ho sakta hai….?”zarina dabe paanv kitchen ke darvaaje par aati hai. Ander khade ladke ko dekh kar ushke hosh ud jaate hain. “arey ! ye to aditya hai… ye yaha kya kar raha hai…kya ye mujhe yaha ley kar aaya hai…ishki himmat kaise huyi” zarina darvaaje par khade khade sochti hai. Aditya uska class mate bhi tha aur padosi bhi. Aditya aur zarina ke parivaaron meinbilkul nahi banti thi. aksar aditya ki mammi aur zarina ki ammi mein kisi na kisi baat ko ley kar kaha suni ho jaati thi. In padosiyon ka jhagda pure mohalle mein mashur tha. Aksar inki bhidant dekhne ke liye log ikkatha ho jaate the. Zarina aur aditya bhi ek dusre ko dekh kar bilkul khus nahi the. Jab kabhicollege mein vo ek dusre ke saamne aate the to muh pher kar nikal jaate the. Haalat kuch aisi thi ki agar unme se ek college ki canteen mein hota tha to dusra canteen mein nahighusta tha. Shukar hai ki dono alag alag section mein the. Varna class attend karne mein …..@___nilesh… …..@___nilesh…
bhi problem ho sakti thi. “Kya ye mujh se koyi badla ley raha hai ?” Zarina sochti hai. Achaanak zarina ki nazar kitchen ke darvaaje ke paas rakhe flower pot par padi. Ushne dheere se flower pot uthaaya.Adiya ko apne peeche kuch aahat mahsus huyi to ushne turant peeche mud kar dekha. Jab tak vo kuch samajh paata… zarina ne ushke sar par flower pot de maara. Aditya ke sar se khun bahne laga aur vo ladkhada kar gir gaya. “tumhaari himmat kaise huyi mere saath aisi harkat karne ki.” zarina cheellaayi. Zarina fauran darvaaje ki taraf bhaagi aur darvaaja khol kar bhaag kar apne ghar ke baahar aa gayi. Par ghar ke baahar pahunchte hi ushke kadam ruk gaye. Ushki aankhe jo dekh rahi thi ushe ush par vishvaas nahi ho raha tha. Vo thar-thar kaanpne lagi. Uske adh-jale ghar ke baahar uske abba aur ammi ki laash thi aur ghar ke darvaaje par uski choti bahan fatima ki laash nirvastra padi thi. gali main charo taraf kuch aisa hi maahol tha. Zarina ko kuch samajh nahi aata. uski aankho ke aage andhera chaane lagta hai aur vo phoot-phoot kar rone lagti hai. Itne mein aditya bhi vaha aa jaata hai.Zarina use dekh kar bhaagne lagti hai….par aditya teji se aage badh kar uska muh daboch leta hai aur use ghasit kar vaapis apne ghar mein laakar darvaaja band karne lagta hai.Zarina ko sofe ke paas rakhi hokey nazar aati hai.Vo bhaag kar use utha kar aditya ke pet mein maarti hai aur teji se darvaaja kholne lagti hai. par aditya jaldi se sambhal kar use pakad leta hai …..@___nilesh… …..@___nilesh…
“paagal ho gayi ho kya… kaha ja rahi ho.. dange ho rahe hain baahar. Insaan… bhediye ban chuke hain.. tumhe dekhte hi noch-noch kar kha jaayenge” zarina ye sun kar hairaani se puchti hai, “d.d..dange !! kaise dange?” “Ek group ne train phoonk di…….. aur dusre group ke log ab ghar-baar phoonk rahe hain… charo taraf…ha-ha-kaar macha hai…khun ki holi kheli ja rahi hai” “Mere ammi,abba aur fatima ne kisi ka kya bigaada tha” —zarina kahte huve subak padti hai “bigaada to un logo ne bhi nahi tha jo train mein the…..bas yu samajh lo ki karta koyi hai aur bharta koyi… sab raajnitik shadyantra hai” “tum mujhe yaha kyon laaye, kya mujh se badla ley rahe ho ?” “jab pata chala ki train phoonk di gayi to main bhi apna aapa kho baitha tha” “haan-haan minority ke khilaaf aapa khona bada aasaan hai”“mere ma-baap us train ki aag mein jhulas kar maare gaye, zarina…koyi bhi apna aapa kho dega.” “to meri ammi aur abba kaun sa zeenda bache hain.. aur fatima ka to rape huvalagta hai. ho gaya na tumhaara hisaab baraabar… ab mujhe jaane do” zarina rote huve kahti hai. “Ye sab maine nahi kiya samjhi… tumhe yaha utha laaya kyonki fatima ka rape dekha nahi gaya mujhse….abhi raat ke 2 baje hain aur baahar curfew laga hai. Maahol theek hone par jahaan chaahe chali jaana” “Mujhe tumhaara ahsaan manjoor nahi…main apni jaan de dungi” Zarina kitchen ki taraf bhaagti hai aur ek chaaku utha kar apni kalaayi ki nuss kaatne lagti haiAditya bhaag kar uske haath se chaaku cheen-ta hai aur uske muh par jor se ek thappad maarta hai. …..@___nilesh… …..@___nilesh…
Zarina thappad ki chot se ladkhada kar gir jaati hai aur phoot-phoot kar rone lagti hai.“Chup ho jao.. baahar har taraf vahasi darinde ghum rahe hain.. kisi ko shak ho gaya ki tum yaha ho to sab gadbad ho jaayega”“kya ab main ro bhi nahi sakti… kya bacha hai mere paas ab.. ye aansu hi hain.. inhe to bah jaane do” Aditya kuch nahi kahta aur bina kuch kahe kitchen se baahar aa jaata hai.zarina rote huve vaapis ushi kamre mein ghuss jaati hai jishmein ushki kuch der pahle aankh khuli thi. ———————– Agli subah zarina uth kar baahar aati hai to dekhti hai ki aditya khaana bana raha hai. Aditya zarina ko dekh kar puchta hai, “kya khaaogi ?” “Zahar ho to de do” “Vo to nahi hai.. tute-phute paraanthe bana raha hun….yahi khaane padenge..….aaoouch…” aditya ki ungli jal gayi. “Kya huva…. ?” “Kuch nahi ungli zal gayi” “Kya pahle kabhi tumne khaana banaaya hai ?”“Nahi, par aaj…banaana padega.. ab vaise bhi mammi ke bina mujhe khud hi banaana padega ” Zarina kuch soch kar kahti hai, “hato, main banaati hun” “Nahi main bana lunga” …..@___nilesh… …..@___nilesh…
“Hat bhi jao…jab banaana nahi aata to kaise bana loge” “Ek shart par hatunga” “Haan bolo” “Tum bhi khaaogi na?” “Mujhe bhook nahi hai”“Main samajh sakta hun zarina, tumhaari tarah maine bhi apno ko khoya hai. Par zeenda rahne ke liye hamein kuch to khaana hi padega” “Kiske liye zeenda rahun, kaun bacha hai mera?” “Kal main bhi yahi soch raha tha. Par jab tumhe yaha laaya to jaise mujhe jeene ka koyi maksad mil gaya” “Par mera to koyi maksad nahi………”“Hai kyon nahi? Tum is dauraan mujhe acha-acha khana khilaane ka maksad bana lo… vakt kat jaayega. Curfew khulte hi main tumhe suraksit jaha tum kaho vaha pahuncha dunga” – aditya halka sa muskura kar bolaZarina bhi uski baat par halka sa muskura di aur boli, “chalo hato ab…. mujhe banaane do” “Kya main kisi tarah delhi pahunch sakti hun, meri mausi hai vaha?” “Chinta mat karo, maahol theek hote hi sabse pehla kaam yahi karunga” Zarina aditya ki aur dekh kar sochti hai, “kabhi socha bhi nahi tha ki jish insaan se main baat bhi karna pasand nahi karti, uske liye kabhi khaana …..@___nilesh… …..@___nilesh…
banaaungi” Aditya bhi man mein sochta hai, “kya khel hai kismat ka? jish ladki ko dekhna bhi pasand nahi karta tha, uske liye aaj kuch bhi karne ko taiyaar hun. Shaayad yahi insaaniyat hai” Dheere-dheere vakt beet-ta hai aur dono ache dost bante jaate hain. Ek dusre ke prati unke dil mein jo nafrat thi vo na jaane kaha gaayab ho jaati hai.Vo 24 ghante ghar mein rahte hain. Kabhi pyar se baat karte hain kabhi takraar se. kabhi hanste hain aur kabhi rote hain. Vo dono vakt ki kadvaahat ko bhulaane ki puri kosish kar rahe hain. Ek din aditya zarina se kahta hai, “tum chali jaaogi to na jaane kaise rahunga main yaha. Tumhaare saath ki aadat si ho gayi hai. Kaun mere liye acha-acha khaana banaayega. Samajh nahi aata ki main tab kya karunga?” “Tum shaadi kar lena, sab theek ho jaayega” “Aur phir bhi tumhaari yaad aayi to?” “To mujhe phone kiya karna” Zarina ko bhi aditya ke saath ki aadat ho chuki hai. Vo bhi vaha se jaane ke khyaal se pareshaan to ho jaati hai, par kahti kuch nahi. After one month: — “Zarina, utho din mein bhi shoti rahti ho” “Kya baat hai? shone do na” “Curfew khul gaya hai. Main train ki ticket book kara kar aata hun. tum kisi …..@___nilesh… …..@___nilesh…
baat ki chinta mat karna, main jaldi hi aa jaaunga” “Apna khyaal rakhna aditya” “Theek hai…sho jao tum kumbhkaran kahin ki…he..he..he….” “Vaapis aao main tumhe bataati hun” — zarina aditya ke upar takiya fenk kar bolti hai Aditya hanste huve vaha se chala jaata hai. Jab vo vaapis aata hai to zarina ko kitchen mein paata hai “Bas 5 din aur…phir tum apni mausi ke ghar par hogi” “5 din aur ka matlab? ……Mujhe kya yaha koyi takleef hai?” “To ruk jao phir yahin…agar koyi takleef nahi hai to” Zarina aditya ke chehre ko bade pyar se dekhti hai. Uska dil bhaavuk ho uthta hai “Kya tum chaahte ho ki main yahin ruk jaaun?” “nahi-nahi main to majaak kar raha tha baba. Aisa chaahta to ticket kyon book karaata?” — ye kah kar aditya vaha se chal deta hai. Use pata bhi nahi chalta ki uski aankhe kab nam ho gayi. Idhar zarina man hi man kahti hai, “tum rok kar to dekho main tumhe chhod kar kahin nahi jaaungi” Vo 5 din un dono ke bahut bhaari gujarte hain. Aditya zarina se kuch kahna chaahta hai,par kuch kah nahi paata. Zarina bhi baar-baar aditya ko kuch kahne ke liye khud ko taiyar karti hai par aditya ke saamne aane par uske hont sil jaate hain. Jish din zarina ko jaana hota hai, us se peechli raat dono raat bhar baate
