" magar many nhi suna apke bary main ya dhekah apko unki wafat se phele ya bad main."
"Usman ap phele London main thy or .... family main kisi or ny uska saat kabi deya hi kahan tha jo mujy wo jante. Ma uske dost k saat uska bhara bhai b tha . Phele Islamabad hi rehta tha ma phir shadi ke bad ma Lahore shift ho gaya.lahore se phir Australia chal so chal me humari dosti ak phone call tak reh gai thi . Mera business loss ki taraf jane laga , or Aziz ka taraki ki taraf apne business ko samhalte sambhalte hum apni dosti na sambhal saky."
Ansun jo rohke behte thy ab behne lage thy .
"phir Jab ma dubara islamabad aya to muje uske ak employee sy pata chala k uski wafat ko 6 maheny ho gae hen. Or muje phir samaj aya ke 6 mahine se uska phone off kiun jata tha. Ya sun kar ma bhot tension ma aa gaya tha."
Ansun ko saaf karte unho ne apni bat dubra jari ki.
"Ma us k ghar jana chata tha magr kis muh sy jaata. 6 mahene bad....kase jata ma. mere mein hemat hi nhi hovi us k ghar jane ki. Itne saal ki yari thi or bebasi to dheko usy khandah tak na de saka ma."
Purane shikwe bayan karne lage thy.
"Kafi himmat ke bad mane socha k ma Taiba ko saat le jaun ga zainab bhabi k ghar. Ussi mahine taiba ki wafat ho gai. Wo mahina mere leye Qayamat ke nazdeeq tha. Ak kehhar mere bhaiyon jese dost ka muj se joda ho jana or dusra meri biwi ka .Ma or tension or depression main jataa gaya.phir ma kabi zainab bhabi ya aaima se nhi mila. ye zindagi bas mre bacho or business tak mehdod rhe gai thi."
Taimur ne zia k khandhe par apna haat rhakha tha . Taimur ne apne baba ko pheli bar itna kamzur or bhebas paya dhekha tha .
Kuch yaad aya tha is sab zikar se Usman ko.
"Zia sahab bhabi ne muj se ap k bary main zikar kiya tha muje ab yaad aya he. Magr wo waqat hamari family ke leya bhot mushkil tha jis ki waja se ma ap se rabta nhi kr saka or apko unki wafat ke bary main nhi bata saka . Galti meri bi he mujy maaf kar dian . "
Usman ko zia k leya bhoot bura lag raha tha .
" nhi nhi koi baat nhi . Magar muje apki ab ak madat chaiya . "
" je je bolien. Agar mare bhaas main hova to ma zarur karun ga."
"Usman muje Aaima sy milwa do ma usy dhek na chata hun. Us se mafi mang na chata hun."
" g zaror Zia shahab. Balke meri beti ka nikka he is jummy ko ap aai je ga or apne dono beto ko be saat laije ga . Is hi bahane ap Aaima se bi mill lije ga."
"Je zarur or mubarak ho apko."
Zia or Usman ab dubra aziz ki batein krne lag gae thy.Tab hi Arhan ko yaad aya tha k usy aaima ko shopping pe le kar jana he. Arhan ne kuch file k bary main taimur ko bataya tha or kaha tha k raat tak apko email kar dun ga. Ye kehta wo waha sy chala gaya tha. Taimur ko samj hi nhi aai thi aj itne saal bad us ne apne baba ko asy dheka tha. Kuch dair bad Taimur or Zia meeting room se Zia k cabin main aa gae thy.Usman wapis chale gae thy . Taimur ne Zia se Aziz k bary main koi baat nhi kahi ya pochi thi wo zia ko or upset nhi krna chata tha.Magar wo nikka ke function k bary main pareshan tha.
" Baba ap or Zaviyar chale jaiye ga. Muje is project k mutallik kuch kaam he."
Taimur is nikka k function mian nhi jana chata tha.
" taimur mane ap se pocha to nhi he jo ap muje bata rahe ho k apko nhi jana."
Taimur ne ya sun kar shukar ka sans leya tha .
"thanku baba muje laga muje b jana ho."
"beta mane apko bataya he pocha nhi he.Apko jana ho ga nhi apko jana he."
" Baba ye kia baat hovi ma nhi jana chata or wase bi mare jane se kia farak par jae ga ap dono chale jana na plz . "
Farak to parna tha magar shadi pe nhi uski apni zaat pe. Ya baat wo khud bi nhi janta tha.
" ab taiyar rhena Friday wale din okk. Or ma ab is bary main or baat nhi karna chata . ghar ja raha hun main Allah hafiz . "
Zia itna khe kar apne cabin sy bahir aa gae thy. Wo jante thy k taimur ab mana nhi kare ga.
_______________
Teen dino ka pata bi nhi chala tha. Aaima or zaviyar dono hospital main bhot busy ho gae thy. Taimur us new project mian musruf ho gaya tha.Or is trha in teen dino ka pata nhi chala.Aj friday tha. Zainab ny Aaima ko chotti lena ka kaha tha.Wo chotti nhi lena chati thi.Magar kuch kar bi nhi skti thi majboran usy chutti leni pari thi.Dusri taraf Zaviyar bi Zia ko chutti na karne ke leye mana raha tha magar unke na manne par Zaviyar ne apna akhari hatteyar dalte Taimur se madat mangi thi.Taimur ne us chez ka ak haal nikala or Zaviyar ko sida hospital se function pe any ke leye kaha yiun Zia bi man gae thy or Zaviyar bi.
Aaima jaanti thi aj ke function main koi usy company dene wala nhi hoga Usman ki family k ailava koi Zainab or Aaima se baat tak nhi karta tha .
"Irha ka aj nikka he wo muje kase company de sakti he rahi baat Arhan ki wo b nikka ki preparation main musruf ho ga ma waha kia karun gi tum aa jao na plzzz Zara tuumhe hamari dosti ka wasta he plz."
Aaima abi Zara se baat kar rahi thi . Apni best friend se. Zara k bad Aaima ka phela friend Zaviyar bana tha.Ya sun kar Zara heran zada or khush kaam hovi thi .
" Yaar tum bi docter ho tum janti ho na chotti karna kitna mushkil he."
Zara ne jaise wazahat dena chai thi.
" to chotti ka kon khe raha he raat ko 8 baje he na function or wase bi log late hi aate he tum 9 bajye tak aa jana na plzzz."
" acha je.Yaad aya tum apne dost ko kaho na itne din se ma yaad nhi ai us k saat bhot ghul mil gai ho. Muje batya he khala nek wo ghar b
Aya tha.Usko kahao."
" yaar tum pagal ho . Or waise usko bi kahi jana hy. Is leya nhi kaha wrna agar ma kheti to wo aa jata tumhari tarha nhi he wo."
" aa rahi hun or us langur se b milva na muje kabi ma be dhekon Kis k itni hemmat he jis ne is larki ko dost bana leya. "
"dost nhi bhai he mera."
" wah je wah bhai tak rishta aa pouncha he."
" or han tumhari jaga koi nhi le skta Zara."
Dono muskuraien thien.
Zara abi baat kr hi rahi thi jab usy kisi nurse ny emergency ka btya tha or usny Allah hafiz kar k call kat di thi . Aaima b ab hospital k leya nikal gai thi ghar se.
________________
Taimur aj black court k niche white shirt or black pant main malbus tha .Wo uska chohra sinah uski sheksiyat ko or nikhar raha tha.jel se set keye hove bal...suit pe koi silwatien nhi ....wo har tarike se perfect tha .
Magar saab kamal to uski ak muskhurahat ka tha. Jo wo na chate hove bi apne chere par sajae hove tha.
" Baba hum pounch gae."
Taimur ne location ko dhek te hove kaha tha.
"Hum to aa gae hen magar apka Zavi nhi aya."
Zia ne gaari se bhair jate hove ak tanziya andaaz main kaha tha .
" baba mere Zavi ne agar kaha he to wo zarur ae ga.Or wase bi ap is function k leye nhi ae ap to apni dost ki beti se milne ae hain . "
Taimur gari se utarta hova apne andar hi barbarya tha . Or ab us ghar k taraf bhara tha jaha kuch dair phele Zia enter hove thy . Taimur or zia ab Usman or Arhan se mil rahe thy. Zia or Usman apni baton main masruf ho gae thy jis wajah se Taimur bhot bor ho raha tha Arhan bi kisi ke bulane pe wahan se chala gaya tha. Taimur ab waha akela khara tha. Usman Zia ko apne dosto se milwane chale jae thy. wo sab ki nazrein apne par parti usy ab buri lagne lagi thien.
" Zavi kab tak ae gaa .."
Taimur apne mob ko dhekte hove bola tha. Tab hi kisi waiter se pastry serve karty hove taimur ke kapro par gir gai thi .
" i .. i . I am soo soo sorry sir plz so sorry ... mistake.."
Waiter pastry k daag ko dhekte hove harbara utha tha.
" it's ok .. no problem. "
" sir guest room Upr he ap waha jaen ma ap k leye new suit le kar aata hun. Sir plz sorry . "
Waiter sach main ghabra gaya tha . Wo jaanta tha k zia or taimur special guests hain or agar Usman ko bata chala ka waiter ne unke special guests ke kapre kharab kar deya he to wo bhoot gussa kare gain .
" koi baat nhi ap suit rhene dein ma isko saaf kar lu ga . Chill don't worry. "
Taimur ne uske khande per haat rhakte hove ak naram lehje se kaha.
Taimur ko waiter se zada apne ap par gussa aa raha tha ye soch kar k wo aaya hi kiun he idar upr se abi tak Zaviyar bi nhi aya tha or ab ye pastry taimur ab gusse main uper ki taraf ja raha tha .
" yaar kon sa kamra btaya tha."
Taimur ko jase yaad aya tha k usne kamre ka rasta to pocha he nhi wo wapas jane laga tha jab usy waha ak aurat nazar ai . Wo Usman k ghar ki house maid thien .
" aunty guest room kaha he??"
" Beta yaha se left side ka aakheri room he."
Sakina ne haat ke ishare se batya tha .
" thanks aunty . "
Taimur ab jaldi main us kamre ki taraf bhara tha. Kuch bi dair main wo kamre k darwaze k bhair khara tha .Us ne darza khola or andar jane hi jaga tha jab uski nazar ak hoor paar pari . Taimur ke kadam wahi gaam gae thy . Na wo aage bhar pa raha tha na pheche ko ja pa raha tha. Or gussa to 2sec main gaib ho gaya tha .Wo hoor sheshe k agy khari ho kar apne pendle ko band karne ki koshish kar rahi thi usne apne baal ak side pe kiye hove thy.Bala ki khubsurat thi wo ye wo man chuka tha.Usy apni maa k baad koi pheli baar itna haseen or khabsurat laga tha. Aj to uski nazre jase uske kabun main hi nhi thien.
Wo larki aaima thi.Aaima ko chotti na milne ki waja se sida hospital se Usman ke ghar ana para tha or wo ab us guest room main tayar ho rahi thi . Aaima ne aj halke gulabi rang ki long frock pheni hovi thi jis per suhnehri rang ki nafasat se karhai hoi hovi thi. baal khule chore. Wo aj bhoot haseen lag rahi thi. Aj asa lag raha tha Jaise sari khubsurati usy pe aa ruki thi is baat ka gawa Taimur tha.
Aaima ko apne ap par koi nazr lagarat parti mhesus ho rahi thien . Aaima ne sheshe main se hi piche dheka to.Ak khubsurat nujawan darwaze k paas khara usy hi dheek raha tha.
In dono ki nazre ak dusre se mili thien . Aaima or taimur do min k leya ak dusri ki ahnko main hi kahi gum ho gae thy. Is duniya sy kahi dur chale gay thy. Magr phir aaima ke haat se pandle nichy gira tha.Or wo dono apni apni duniya main wapais ae thy .
" I .. ii sorry . Mera matlab k i am sorry mujy pata nhi tha k andar koi phele se majud he. Wo actually muje washroom use krna tha.But...... it's ok ma koi or washroom use kar leta hun. "
Taimur Aaima se bamshkil nazre hatate na samji main kuch bi bol gaya tha.Wo abi wapis murne hi laga tha jab Asima ki awaz ne usy roka tha .
"No. No problem muje lock krna chaiya tha.ap kar lein use ma wase bi jane lagi thi bas."
" thanks."
Taimur abi agy bhara hi tha jab usne Aaima ko girte hove dhekha tha .Taimur furan agy bhara tha usy bacha ne ke leya .
Aaima apne long frock ki waja se girne hi wali thi . Jab do mazbot haton ne sahara deya tha. Taimur ka ak haat Aaima ke kamar par tha or dusra haat Aaima k haat main .Unki nazrein dubara ak dosre se mili thien.
Taimur ko apne andar kuch mhesus hova tha uska dill .
Uska dill bhot zor se dharak ne laga tha .Usne itne salo k bad us dil ko dharakte hove mhesus keya tha . Ye sach he ke dil ke dhakarne ke sat hi insan zinda rehta he magar insan kabi is marhale pe aa pounch ta he ke un dharkano ko mehsus karna chor deta he or apne ap ko ak zinda lash samaj bhet tha he or shahid Taimur zindagi ke in marahil pe hi tha. Usy mhesus hova tha k wo aj bi zinda he uska dil abi bi dharakta he. Taimur ko aj itni dair baad ak aajeeb aa sakun mila tha. aj usy laga jase usy dubara jina aa agya ho jo wo bhot phele bhool gaya tha .
Aaima un ankho main hi kahin kho gai thi.wo ankhein khobsurat thien. Bohat khubsurat.
