AS came to his home and pressed the doorbell. Bua ji opened the door.
BUA: Anu, tu...
He didn't hear her and quickly went to his room. She was confused by his behaviour. He stepped into his room and started throwing all things here and there. The entire room was messed up. He kicked the bed and gave a hard punch to the wall. He was screaming. Hearing his voice, Maa and Bua ji quickly ran to his room. They were shocked after seeing his room like this. He was continuously throwing things and punching on the wall. His hands were bleeding. Maa ran and held him.
MAA: Anu, kya kar raha hain yeh tu? Ruk, ruk.
Somehow both ladies stopped him. His eyes were red like blood and his hair were completely messed up. He was sweating and looking down. Maa cupped his face and said,
MAA: Anu, kya ho gaya hain tujhe? Tu toh kitna khush tha phir aise kyun bartav kar raha hain?
AS: Aap dono hume kuch samay ke liye ekant mein chhod dijiye. Hume iss samay kisi se bhi baat nahi karni?
BUA: Anu, kuch pareshaani hain toh bata de naa! Hum milke uska hal nikalenge. Aise kudh ko chot pahunchayega toh thodi hi koi baat banengi!?
AS: (sternly) Humne kaha naa Bua ji, hume iss samay kisi se koi baat nahi karni hain. Kripa karke aap dono yanha se chale jaayiye. Hume kuch kshan ekant mein rehna hain.
Maa held his hand and make him sit on the bed. She took a first aid box from the drawer beside the bed. He looked it and said,
AS: Humne kanha na Maa ki h...
MAA: (cuts him) Chup rahe tu. Tujhe akela hi rehna hain naa, chhod denge tujhe akela. Abhi jo hum kar rahe hain woh karne de.
She was done with his dressing. He didn't utter a word. His anger was increasing with each second. His face clearly shows that. Maa slowly caressed his cheek and said,
MAA: Anu, bachcha ab bata bhi de naa ki hua kya hain? Teri Maa hain hum. Tujhe aise iss haalat mein nahi dekh sakte. Kyun pareshaan hain tu?
AS: (no expression) Maa, aap chahti hain naa ki hum pareshaan na ho.
MAA: Haan beta, aur iske liye hum kuch bhi karenge.
AS: Toh thik hain, aap dono yanha se chali jaayiye. Hume iss samay kisi se bhi baat nahi karni. Kripa karke aap dono hume akela chhod dijiye.
Maa thought to give him some space. She cupped his face and gave him a forehead kiss. She stood up and started to leave with Bua ji. They came out of his room and Bua ji asked her,
BUA: Bhabhi, aapko thoda aur zor dena chahiye tha. Anu sab sach bata deta naa. Aisi haalat mein usse akela chhodna sahi nahi rahega.
MAA: Nahi Sumi, usse thodi der akela hi rehne do. Usse kisi cheez ka bahut dhakka laga hain. Humara baar baar usse puchhna ki baat kya hain, yeh shayad usko aur bhi jyada gussa dila de.
BUA: Magar hum usse aise hi akela chhod denge toh kanhi woh kuch galat kadam na utha le!
MAA: (sternly) Nahi, Anu humara beta hain. Woh itna kamzor nahi hain ki kisi baat se udaas ya pareshaan hokar koi galat kadam utha le. Usse bas thoda sa samay chahiye. Woh khud apni pareshaani se lad lega.
BUA: Thik hain, jaisa aap samjho.
They both went downstairs and he locked his room. His eyes fell the ring in his hand which was given by HM. He closed his eyes and said,
AS: Kyun? Kyun Haseena? Kyun kiya aapne aisa? Kya kami rah gayi thi humare prem mein? Hum har woh sambhav karya karte jisse aapko khushi milti. Aapki khushi ke liye hum apna pura jeevan bhi laga dete. Aapke liye toh humare pran bhi hum khushi khushi se de dete. Phir kyun kiya aapne aisa? Kya mila aapko humare bhavnao ke saath khelkar? Humare hriday ko ek khilona samajh kar aapne achchha nahi kiya? Hum aapko kabhi kshama nahi karenge. Kabhi nahi!!!
He fell on the bed on his stomach. He spent his whole day in the room only. He didn't eat or drink that day. Although Maa and Bua ji insisted him but he denied for anything.
***********
Next day,
S
S was getting ready to go to college. She was packing her back. She called PJ as she didn't find her books. PJ came and asked her,
PJ: Kya hain Santu? Kyun chilla rahi ho subah subah?
SS: Amma, humare books kanha hain? Mil hi nahi rahe hain. Pata nahi kanha chale gaye.
PJ: Zara aapne baaju ke table par dekhkar batana ki woh kya hain?
SS looked at the table beside her. She bit her tongue and looked at her mother with an innocent face. PJ said,
PJ: Nahi, ab aisi bholi shakal mat banao. Tumhe dikhta nahi kya kuch bhi? Tumhare ek dum bagal mein hi toh yeh kitaabe phir bhi tumhari aankhon ne unhe nahi dekha. Ankhein hain ya button? Yeh toh tumhari kismat achchhi hain ki ghar par hum hain tumhe sambhalne ke liye aur college mein Cheetah. Warna tumhe toh ek cheez time par nahi milti.
SS: Offo Amma..., itne taane dene ki bhi koi zaroorat nahi hain. Humari galti bhi itni nahi hain jitna aap hume daant rahi hain!
PJ: Oh ho! Tumhari galti nahi toh aur kiski galti hain phir?
SS: In books ki?
PJ: Achchha, Zara tum batane ka kasht karogi kya ki in books ki galti kaise hain?
SS: Abhi batate hain. Amma, yeh books ho ya koi aur samaan, sab jan-bujhkar hume pareshaan karte hain. Hum chahe isse din bhar bhi dhundh le par hume yeh nahi milte. Mr.India bankar rehte hain. Par jab koi Maa usse dhundhti hain naa tab phat se humare saamne hi prakat ho jaate hain. Aur hume daant padwate hain.
(aisa sirf mere saath hi hota hain kya? Ya phir meri tarah iss dukh ka maara koi aur bhi hain?)
PJ: Hmm... Bas baatein bana lo tumse. Nautanki kanhi ki. Waise aaj yeh Cheetah nahi dikh raha hain yanha? Roz toh iss time par aa jaata hain. Aaj aaya hi nahi.
SS: Haan woh Amma, Cheetah jaldi chala gaya usse kuch books kharidne the. Aur woh shaam ko bhi late hi aayega. Aaj Pyari aunty aane wali hain naa, iss liye woh unhe lene ke liye sham ko station jaa raha hain.
PJ: Ohh! Chalo yeh achchhi baat hain ki Noorie aa rahi hain.
(after a pause) Waise Santu tumne ek baat par dhyan diya?
SS: Kya Amma?
PJ: Tumhe Hassu ke bartav kuch badla badla sa nahi lag raha hain pichhle 8-10 dino se?
Hearing this statement SS was shocked. She tried to pretend normal and said,
SS: Kaisa ajeeb bartav Amma? Hume toh aisa kuch nahi lag raha hain?
PJ: Are kya nahi lag raha hain? Hassu pehle jaisi chulbuli hain hi nahi ab. Hamesha jo Hasti khelti rehti thi ab uske chehre par halki si muskaan bhi nahi dikh rahi hain. Din bhar bas apne ghar mein band rehti hain. Pata nahi kya ho gaya hain usse?
SS: (fumbling) Amma, woh... woh... ho sakta hain naa ki... Didu ko... aa... didu ko padhaai ka tension ho raha ho. Aur beech mein unki tabiyat bhi thodi si kharab ho gayi thi naa!
PJ: Pata nahi Santu, par Hassu hamesha se hi hoshiyaar bachchi rahi hain. Usse iske pehle kabhi padhaai ke kaaran tanaav mein nahi dekha. Ho sakta hain ki hum hi kuch jyada soch rahe ho. Bas, hume humari pehle wali natkhat Hassu mil jaaye toh hum khushham khush ho jaayenge.
SS: Hmm...
PJ: Achchha thik hain, yeh sab baatein toh hoti hi rahengi. Tujhe college ke liye late ho raha hain naa? Toh tu jaa warna phir se tu bolegi ki humari wajah se tujhe late ho gaya? Aur sambhal ke jaana.
SS: Okay Amma. Bhaiyyu nikal gaye office ke liye?
PJ: Kabka nikal gaya woh!
SS: Thik hain. Ab hum bhi nikalte hain.
She kissed her mother's cheek and left from there. She was in an auto.
SS: (in mind) Kya kare hum? Waise toh humne Amma ko samjha diya ki Hassu di bas thodi si tension mein hain. Par hum jaante hain ki baat bahut badi hain. Magar baat kya hain yeh toh hum bhi clearly nahi jaante. Aur na hi kisi ko batane ki himmat ho rahi hain humse.
She thought for some time.
SS: (in mind) Yes, Anu bhaiyya humari madad kar sakte hain. Hum unse didu ki baat karte hain. I am damn sure woh didu ko pareshaani ko pata bhi laga lenge aur uss pareshaani ko khatam bhi kar denge. Hume kisi bhi tarah se ek baar Anu bhaiyya se baat karni hogi. Ab woh hi Hassu di ko iss worst condition se bahar nikal sakte hain.
She quickly called his number and after a long bell, he picked it up.
AS: Hello
SS: Anu bhaiyya, hum Santu bol rahe hain.
AS: Haan Santu, aapka number hain humare doorbhash mein. Kahiye, kaise yaad kiya aapne hume?
SS: Anu bhaiyya, kya aap Lucknow wapas aa gaye ho?
AS: Haan, bas 2 din ho gaye hume aaye hue. Kyun?
SS: Bhaiyya, hume aapse milna hain. Ek bahut hi zaroori baat karni hain aapse? Kya aap aaj humse mil sakte hain?
AS: Mil toh sakte hain Santu parantu baat kya hain? Sab thik toh hain naa?
SS: Nahi bhaiyya, kuch bhi thik nahi hain.
AS: (scared a little) Kyun? Kya hua?
SS: Woh sab hum aapko milkar batayenge bhaiyya. Baat hi kuch aisi hain ki hum phone par aapko kuch nahi bata sakte.
AS: Thik hain. Aap batayiye ki kanha aur kab milna hain?
SS: Aaj shaam 4 baje ussi park mein milte hain janha hum log hamesha se milte rehte hain.
AS: Thik hain Santu, hum pahunch jaayenge. Apna khayal rakhna.
SS: Okay bhaiyya. Bye.
AS: Bye.
*********
AS reached the park. SS also came in there on time. They both stood near a tree and a little far from other people. He asked her softly,
AS: Kya baat hain Santu? Aap kuch pareshaan si lag rahi hain. Aisi bhi kya baat ho gayi ki aapne hume bulaya?
SS: Baat hi kuch aisi hain bhaiyya. Agar aap bhi sunenge toh aap bhi shock ho jaayenge, gussa ho jaayenge.
AS: Santu, aap aise pehaliyon mein baat mat kijiye. Jo hua hain usse saaf saaf batayiye.
SS: Pehle aap hume yeh batayiye ki kya aap Hassu di se mile hain?
AS: (sternly) Haan, mile hain. Aur aage shayad kabhi na mile.
SS: (shockingly) Kya? Yeh aap kya keh rahe hain bhaiyya! Aap toh unse pyar karte ho naa toh phir aap unke baare mein aisa kaise keh sakte ho?
AS: Prem toh bahut kiya humne unse, Santu. Parantu shayad unhone humse prem nahi kiya.
SS: Ek minute, aap kya keh rahe hain hume kuch samajh nahi aa raha hain. Didu bhi aapse bahut pyar karti hain bhaiyya. Aap hume saaf saaf batayiye ki hua kya hain?
AS: Agar aapke andar sun-ne ki kshamata hain toh suniye.
He narrated the whole story to her. She was shocked by her core. She said,
SS: Aisa nahi ho sakta. Hume vishwas hi nahi hain ki Hassu didu aisa kuch kar sakti hain.
AS: Vishwas toh hume bhi nahi hua tha Santu. Parantu yeh hi satya hain.
SS: (in confident tone) Nahi bhaiyya, Hum yeh achchhe se jaante hain ki woh aapse bahut pyar karti hain. Aapki khushi ke liye woh kuch bhi kar sakti hain. Aapki khushi, aapki izzat aur aapke pyar ke liye woh har khatre se lad sakti hain.
(after a pause) Achchha, humari baat chhodiye, kya aapko bhi dil se lagta hain ki Hassu didu aapko dhoka de sakti hain?
He looked another side and said with moist eyes,
AS: Santu, satya kahe toh humara hriday abhi bhi nahi maanta ki humari Haseena hume dhoka de sakti hain. Hume ab bhi lagta hain ki woh keval aur keval humse prem karti hain, aur woh bhi apne dil se. Parantu jo chamak hum unki aankhon mein dekha karte the woh hume ab nahi dikhayi de rahi hain. Unke mukh par hamesha se ek tez rehta tha pehle jo ab bilkul bhi nahi hain. Hume aisa lag raha hain ki humari Priye kanhi kho gayi hain.
SS: Yaani aapne bhi yeh baat notice ki hain.
AS: (looking at her) 'Aapne bhi' matlab?
SS: Bhaiyya, hum jo zaroori baat karne aaye hain woh darasal Hassu didu ke baare mein hi hain.
AS: (impatiently) Kya baat karni hain unke baare mein?
SS: (fumbling) Anu bhaiyya, woh... woh... didu ne...
She started to cry. He became worried. He held her by her shoulders and asked,
AS: Santu, kya baat hain? Kya kiya hain Haseena ne? Dekhiye Santu, spasht roop se batayiye ki hua kya hain? Iss tarah ro kar aap hume dara rahi hain?
SS: Bhaiyya, woh Hassu didu ne...
AS: Haan, boliye, kya kiya Haseena ne?
She gathered some courage and wiped her tears and said,
SS: Bhaiyya, jis din aap Banglore gaye the naa uske kuch 3-4 din baad Hassu didu ne suicide attempt kiya tha.
