Chapter 28

Aise hi kuch din tak Sujal Kashish ke ghar jata gaya......Kashish ab puri tarah se Tushar ke gum se to bahar aa gayi thi lekin abhi bhi kuch maryada thi jo woh par nahi kar sakti thi.......Sujal apne kamre me hota hai jab Veena aati hai.............

Veena: Sujal.........muje tumse kuch kehna hai.....

Sujal: haa kaho......kya baat hai.....

Veena: main Kashish se milna chahti hoon.........ple mana mat karna.......

Sujal: thik hai......main aap ko aaj hi Kashish se milvata hoon.........main abhi use phone karke bulata hoon......aap taiyaar ho jaiye........

Veena taiyaar hone chali jati hai........Sujal Kashish ko phone karta hai..........

Sujal: hello......Kashish......

Kashish: Sujal.........itni subaah subaah phone kiya koi khaas waje........

Sujal: main mama ko leke Shiv Mandir ja raha hoon.......kya tum muje waha mil sakti ho.....

Kashish: Sujal.......mera mann nahi hai......

Sujal: lekin mera mann to hai.........agar tumne meri baat nahi mani to main kabhi tumse milne nahi aaunga...............ple Kashish......

Kashish: thik hai main abhi aati hoon.............

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

Sujal aur Veena Shiv Mandir me Kashish ka intzaar kar rahe hote hai........jab woh dekhte hai ki Kashish puja ki thali leke aa rahi hai.........

Sujal : Kashish.......yeh meri Mama.......

Kashish jake veena ke pair chuti hai.....

Veena: jiti raho beta......

Sujal: ab maine apna kam kar diya.........ab main chalta hoon muje dair ho rahi hai............

Kashish; Sujal suno to.....

Sujal: bye......

Sujal waha se chala jata hai..........

Veena: jitni mere bete ne tarif ki utni kam hai...........wake me Kashish tum kabile tarif ho..........

Kashish: nahi main to bas............waise mafi mangti hoon aapse..........aapke bete ko meri waje se bahot taklif sehni padi.........lekin main majbur thi........

Veena: Kashish......Sujal ne muje kabhi nahi bataya ki tum log kis waje se durr huye......lekin usne kabhi tumhe kasoorwad nahi tehraya........kya main puch sakti hoon woh kaun si waje thi........

Kashish: jab sab kuch bikhar hi gaya hai to aap se kya chupana........maine apni Dii ko uske pyaar se milane ke liye apne Papa se vaada kiya tha ki main unhi ki pasand se shaadi karungi.........lekin muje nahi pata tha ki Sujal mere dil me apni jagah bana lega........muje apne papa se kiye vaade kee liye apne pyaar ka vaada todna pada..........kyunki main apne pyaar ke liye 25 saal purana rishta to nahi tod sakti thi.....muje jo sahi laga maine kiya.........lekin kahi na kahi aaj bhi main Sujal ki zindagi ki is halat pe apne aap ko kasoorwad manti hoon.........ho sake to muje maff kar dena.........

Veena: woh maa-baap dhany hoge jisne tuj jaisi beti ko janam diya...........main tumse naraz nahi hoon......muje apne bete pe garv hai ki usne tujse pyaar kiya tha.........

Kashish: ab main zindagi me bahot aage badh chuki hoon.........ab piche nahi mud sakti........aaj main aur Sujal sirf dost hai..........

Veena: kashish tum phir se.....

Kashish: nahi ......maine apne hisse ki zindagi jee li hai........aur main Tushar ke saath bewafai nahi kar sakti........

Veena: ek aurat ke nate me tumhe samaj sakti hoon lekin saath me main Sujal ki maa bhi hoon is liye......

Kashish: puja ke liye dair ho rahi hai aur muje ghar bhi jana hai.......chale..........

Veena: chalo........

Kashish aur Veena puja karke apne apne ghar chale jate hai...............

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

is din ko bhi kayi din gujar gaye...........Sujal aur Kashish isi coffee shop me aate hai...........

Sujal: Kashish.........tumhe yaad hai yeh jagah........

Kashish: is jagah ko main kaise bhool sakti hoon........isi jagah se to humne apna safar shuru kiya tha........

Waiter: may i take order ple.........

Kashish: one coffee with one spoon of sugar ple......

Sujal: one coffee with two spoon of sugar ple..........

Waiter waha se chala jata hai.....

Sujal; waqt ke saath saath hamari aadte bhi kitni badal gayi hai........

Kashish: haa Sujal..........waqt bhi badal gaya hai.......halat bhi badal gaye..........ab na main woh Kashish rahi hoon........

Sujal: mere liye to tum aaj bhi wahi Kashish ho.......dekho na hum dono juda to ho gaye lekin humne apni aadte ek dusre ke saath badal di.......

Kashish: kabhi kabhi nayi aadte jine ke liye aasan ho jati hai.......

Sujal: Kashish..........kya tum kabhi Tushar ko bhool paogi.....

Kashish: Sujal ........Tushar meri zindagi the...........main use bhula nahi sakti..........

Sujal: Kashish main tumhare liye Khush hoon ki tumhe Tushar jaisa jeevansathi mila tha....wake main bahot hi achcha insaan tha......

Kashish: haa Sujal.......aur jante ho.......kisi farishte se kam nahi the woh........isne meri zindagi me khushiyaan bhar di thi.......lekin ek din ek toofan me mera sab kuch bikar diya.........kash main bhi us accident me mar gayi hoti.........

Sujal: Kashish bhool ke bhi aisa mat sochna.......aise bahot se log hai jise tumhari zaroorat hai..........tumhare parivar ko tumhari zaroorat hai...............muje tumhari zaroorat hai...........Kashish ek bar tumne hi kaha tha ki hum apne liye nahi balke apno ke liye jite hai........to aaj kyun tum aisa soch bhi rahi ho...........

Kashish: tum thik keh rahe ho.......muje apne parivar ka sahara banna hai...........

Sujal: that's like our old kashish.........

Phir dono coffee pite hai aur dono apne apne ghar chale jate hai......................
