"Iss gaon mein aisi harkatein sahi nahi jayegi...saza milegi tum sabko."The man said.
"Pagal hogaye hain kya aapsab...yeh bhaijaan hain humare..aur Suyog bhi bhai jaise hain humare liye,kaisi baatein karrahe hain aap sab!"Haseena said exasperated.
"Ekdum chup ladki...jhoot bolne ki koushish mat kar.Gaon ki aurton ne dekha hain tujhe aur iss ladke ko (pointing towards suyog)raaste mein baat karte huye...sabko pata chal chuka hin tu rang Mahal ki ladki hain aur tumlogo ka koi charitra nahi hota.
"Bas kijiye...koi haq nahi hain aap logo ko meri bahen k baare mein ulta sidha bolne ka."Rafique roared.
"Chup!Bada aaya bahen ka Bhai,kuch dino se dekh rahe hain tumdono ka aawan jaawan...toh Bhai sahab sirf bahen se hi kyun milte hain jijaji acche nahi hain kya."A young boy from the crowd taunted.
"Dekhiye aaplogo ko koi galat faimi hui hain...bina sach jaane aise naapak ilzaam mat lagaiye...hath jodte hain hum."Haseena said firmly with folded hands and teary eyes.
"Iss gaon mein Tawaif k liye koi jagah nahi hain."Another man shouted from the crowd.Haseena recognised him to be a regular visitor of Rangmahal but remained silent.
The next moment she felt a sharp pain on her forehead.Someone had pelted a stone on her which hit her forehead causing blood to flow immediately.
Meanwhile Anubhav reached there he was stunned to see the crowd infront of his house,worry crept up in his heart.He went forward jostling through the crowd.His heart sank seeing Haseena's bleeding forehead and tear stricken face.
"Haseena!"He gasped and enveloped her in his arms not caring about the other people present there.He pulled out his handkerchief from his pocket and pressed on her wound.He noticed the stone on the floor.
"Kya horaha hain yaha?"He asked the villagers angrily.
"Yeh baat tum apni patni se puchho Anubhav.Tumhari gayerhaazri mein do mardo ko ghar lekar aayi hain yeh."A man said and the others seconded him.
"Kya bakwas karrahe hain aaplog...yeh Haseena k Bhai hain,hum jaante the yeh log aanewale hain kuch zaroori kaam tha isliye hum post office Gaye the."He said angrily.
"Apni patni ko bachane k liye jhoot mat bolo Anubhav....konsi aurat beech raaste paraye mard se baat karti hain...besharam ladki!
Ek toh tumne ek Tawaif se shadi karli upar se usse bachane k liye jhoot bol rahe ho!"The well built man said.
"Tawaif nahi hain humari Haseena!!"Anubhav roared in anger,his eyes have turned red.
"Chillane se sach nahi badalta Anubhav...Rangmahal ki ladki Tawaif hi hoti hain."
"Are chacha samjho...yeh khud bhi toh Tawaif ka beta hain...kamzori toh hogi hi inke prati."The young man said mockingly and a few of the villagers laughed at his comment.
"Bas!!!"Haseena shouted."Ek shabd nahi humare pati k khilaf."
"Bohot bol liya aap sabne...ab hum bolenge,Pramodh ne kaha hain na aap sab se ki hum Rangmahal se hain toh usse kisine yeh sawal kyun nhi kiya ki usse yeh baat kaise pata?Kyunki woh mard hain?!koi bhi janm se Tawaif nahi hoti usse banaya jata hain aur banate hain aap jaise log...Jinhe raat k andhere mein Rangmahal jaane mein koi dikkat nahi,raat jinki aagosh mein bitate hain,apne dukh dard,gussa jinpar nikalte hain subha unhe hi dhukkarte hain.Rangmahel ki ladkiya nahi aati hain aapke paas aaplog jaate hain bukhe janwaro ki tarha!"She shouted.
"Ae ladki zubaan sambhal ke!"
"Nahi sambhalenge aaj hum apni zubaan...bolenge aaj hum.Kya bola Anubhav Tawaif k bete hain toh kya issmein inki galti hain?Kyun samajh humesha uss bacche ko koste hain aaplog yeh sawal jaakar apne mukhya ko kyun nahi karte?!Kayar hain aap sab,woh sare mard jo raat k andhere mein aurat ka faida uthate hain magar subha ki roshni mein apni zimmedari nahi nibha sakte.
"Thu hain aap sabki gandi soch par jo ek bhai bahen k paak rishte par bhi kichad uchhalte hain...aurat ko sirf hawas puri karne ki cheeze mante hain.Aur aaplog yaha jitni aurte hain..kitni asaani se ungli utha di hum par...ekbaar bhi socha hain agar aapke aur aapne Bhai k liye koi aisi baatein kare toh kaisa lagega(the women downcasted their eyes.)..ek shaadi shuda ladki k charitra par aise aarop lagana bina kuch jaane...yeh sahi hain?Uparwala sab dekhta hain yeh baat yaad rakhna aap sab!"Haseena said.
"Toh kya abb tawaifo ko patni hone ka samman de?!" A man asked.
"Samman!!Samman toh khudki patni ka kitna karte honge uss baat par shaq hain humein... aur patni ka samman nahi de sakte toh usske samman k saath har raat khelne ka haq bhi nahi hain Mardo ka."Haseena said.
Everyone present their fell silent for a moment.
"Harihar chacha aap toh pandit hain...durga maa ki puja karte hain,kahete hain har aurat mein devi basti hain...Rangmahel ki mitti k bagair toh maa ki murti bhi nahi banti aur waha rahene Wale logo se itni nafrat!Maante hain unka kaam shyad thik nahi hain par ek baar sochkar dekhiye agar unse nafrat karne ki jagah samajh tathakathit sabhyata k mukhote pahene huye mardo ko sikhata aurton ka samman karna,patnivrat hona,toh shayad aaj Tawaif jaisa shabd bhi nahi hota."Anubhav said.
No one could speak a word more.Those who agreed to him slowly left the place but a few egoistic men remained.
"Phir bhi jo bhi ho Anubhav...iss gaon mein tum dono nahi rahe sakte!"
"Rahenge bhi nahi chacha."Anubhav said with a small smile."Selection ho gaya hain humare..naukri lag gayi hain humari,wahi telegram aaya tha,do din ka waqt dedijiye hum khud apni patni k saath chale jayenge.Jahan k logo ki soch itni gandi ho waha humein waise bhi nahi rahena...Haseena andar chaliye.(softly)"
"Humlog bhi Aaj chalte hain Anubhav babu...Aaplog aram kijiye main aur Suyog milkar sab sambhal lenge.Chandni ko kal hi lekar aayenge Rangmahal se."Rafique said.
"Shukriya Rafique ji."Anubhav said and went inside with Haseena.
