"Lo aa gayi asli soniya aukaat pe. Sach kadwa jo lag gaya." Aarohi boli.
Soniya ne bhi gali bakni shuru kar di. Arun kuch der khada raha. Fir ek gehri saas li aur upar jakar niche aaya to uske hath me car ki chabhi thi. Soniya aur Aarohi abhi ek dusre se ladne me lage hue the.
"Arun kaha ja rahe ho?" Sneha ne unlogo ko rokte hue pucha.
"Bahar," Arun chilla ke bola. "Main pareshan ho gaya is ghar me ladaiyon ki wajah ban kar." Wo muda aur teji se bahar nikal gaya.
**********
"Khush?" Sneha ne dono se pucha.
"Di, aap bich me mat bolo," soniya boli.
"Soniya dont be so mean.."
"Haan ab to sab meri hi galti hai.."
Aarohi halke se has di. To soniya use dekhne lagi.
"Aur kya galti to tumhari hi hai. Your so called attitude na hota to us waqt bhi Arun ko chot nhi lagti, lekin nhi soniya to apni marji ki karti hai. wo kyu kisi ki baat sunane lagi. Us waqt bhi tumne uski baat sune bina use thappad mara tha aur aaj bhi yahi kar rahi ho..." aarohi bole ja rahi thi, to supriya ne use rok diya.
"Listen soniya, wo bas hum sab logo ke sath thoda akela waqt chahta tha, jisse hum sab ko equal time de ske," Supriya use samjhate hue boli.
"To aap sab logo ko bata de mujhe chodkar. I guess mujhe ye expect karna chahiye tha," soniya rukhe andaj se boli.
"Get over yourselft, Soniya. Hum sab log use share karte hain, tum me aisa special kya hai ki tumhe hi sara waqt mile?" aarohi chilla kar boli.
"Maine kabhi nhi kaha ki main special hoon. Bas mujhe dukh is baat ka hai ki usne mujhe ye baat nhi batayi. Kam se kam wo mujhe ye to bata hi skta tha ni ki wo thik hai. Main jo pareshan rahi itne din uska kya?"
Aarohi apne ankhen ghumane lagi.
"Fuck you, Aarohi." Soniya chillate hue rone lagi. Fir mudkar teji se apne room me chali gayi.
"Tujhe kya ho gaya hai Aaru?" Sneha ne Soniya ke piche jate hue Aarohi ko dekha.
********
Arun car me baitha aur start karke road par chalane laga. uske man me koi khas jagah nhi thi, bas aise hi gadi chalaye ja raha tha.
"Bitches?"
"Shut up,"
"Kafi serious fight thi aur maybe ho rahi hogi."
"Maine isse bhi bhayankar dekhi hai. Agar aarohi aur Soniya chahe to kafi aage badh skti hai. Tune abhi kuch nhi dekha, hathapayi tak ho jati hai."
"To fir tu aise chala kyu aaya?"
"Kyuki meri wajah se hi ho raha hai ye sab,"
"Waise apne log chal kaha rahe hain?"
"Pata nhi.."
"Okay..."
"Shitt," Arun teji se chillaya.
"Take it easy, bro."
Arun ne ek gehri saas li aur gadi par dhyan diya. Kuch ghante tak wo aise hi idhar udhar ghumta raha. "Mujhe kisi se baat karni padegi," usne akhirkar kaha.
"Main hamesha yahi hoon bhai."
"No offence lekin ek asli insan se," usne socha.
Awaz shayad ye baat samajh gayi aur shant ho gayi.
Arun ke man me ek idea aaya.
***********
Esha nailpolish laga rahi thi jab uska phone vibrate hone laga. Usne phone uthakar jawab diya to Arun tha dusri taraf.
Kuch der tak usne baat ki fir kapde pehnane lagi.
20 minute baad Arun uske ghar par baitha hua tha aur gusse aur thakan se bhara hua lag raha tha.
"To kya hua?" esha ne pucha.
"Tumhare dad to nhi hai?" usne pucha.
"Office me hain,"
"Thoda personal matter hai." Arun relax hokar bola.
Esha uski taraf dekh muskura di. "I'm listening."
"Kal Aarohi ka accident hua."
"Oh my god!" Esha boli.
Arun ne use shant rehne ka ishara kiya. "She's okay. Ek do cuts hain aur pair me fracture hai bas."
"Oh my god..what happened?"
"Wo usi ladke ne hamla kiya jisne meri car par goli chalayi thi."
"Oh no!"
"Police ne bataya ki uski gadi aage jake palat gayi aur uski wahi death ho gayi."
"Well, aarohi se kehna ki use kisi chiz ki jarurat hai to main hoon."
"I will," arun bolkar shant ho gaya.
Esha ne tention ko bhanp liya.
"What?" usne pucha.
"Main isliye nahi aaya."
"Oh, to fir?"
Aur nervous hokar apni chair me idhar udhar hua.
"Chai ya coffee.." Esha ne pucha.
"Coffee will do," arun ne kaha to dono ke liye coffee bana ke le aayi.
Arun bolne ki bajaye cup ke rim par ungli ghumane laga.
"Arun, you can tell me anything. Remember, maine tumhe har chiz batayi hai jo kuch maine kiya. Mujhe kisi chiz se problem nhi hogi."
"Maine kabhi in chizo ke bare me kisi se baat nhi ki hai bas," usne kaha.
"Koi nhi, jab tumhe thik lage tum bolna."
Arun kafi palo tak khamoshi se baitha raha. Fir usne apna gala saaf kiya aur uski or dekha.
"Tumhe to pata hi hai ki mere aur meri sisters ke bich kya chal raha hai?"
Esha muskura di. "yeah, i figured."
Arun halka sa sharma gaya. "Well, its now..fucked up."
"What..kaun Aarohi?"
"Kya?" Arun confuse hokar bola.
"Pregnant! kaun?"
"Oh god" Arun sir hilane laga. "Nahi..nahi. Koi pregnant nhi hai jahan tak mujhe pata hai."
"Oh. Sorry."
Fir dono halke se has pade. arun apne balo me ungliyan firane laga.
"Okay, jab main aur tum sath me gaye the tab mujhe kuch bhi yaad nhi tha pichle saal ka. Lekin jab dusri baar hum dono kiss kar rahe the ye sab chize ek dum se mere dimag me aagayi." usne coffee ki sip lete hue bataya.
"Ghar pahuch kar maine sirf Supriya di ko bataya aur kisi ko nhi."
Esha use dekhne lagi. "Okay..lekin pehle main kuch puch skti hoon?"
Arun ne sir hila diya.
"To har kisi ko pata hai ki tum har kisi ke sath sex karte ho?" Usne haan me sir hila diya. "Wo log equally share karte hain tumhe ya koi schedule bana rakha hai."
Arun has diya. "Well," wo muskurate hue bola. "Main diagram se bata skta hoon."
Esha bhi haste hue sir hilane lagi. "Overview hi kafi rahega."
"Well, Soniya ko lagbhag har raat milti hai. Shuruat me to bas wo mere paas isliye soti thi kyuki use akele nind nhi aati thi aur darawane sapne aane lage the. I don't really know ki ye sab ho kaise gaya. Khair wo log share karte hain, lekin koi rules nhi hain. Main kosis to yahi karta hoon ki sabko barabar ka time de paun lekin din me 24 ghante hi hote hain."
"To un logo ko sharing se koi problem nhi hai?"
"Mostly nhi, I guess. I mean its kind of an open relationship. Ya fir like plural marriage jabki hum logo ki shadi nhi hui hai. Mujhe to pata bhi nhi hai ki hai kya ye," wo hath khade karte hue bola.
"To tumne Supriya di ko bataya aur kisi ko nhi, fir" Esha boli.
"Mujhe pata hai tumhe ye sunane me kaisa lag raha hoga. Believe me I had good intentions. Kind of. Dekho main bas sabke sath barbar ka time spend karna chahta tha ek ek karke sabke sath."
"Uske baad maine Aarohi ko bataya fir abhi parso cabin par Sneha ko. Accident tak maine Soniya ko kuch nhi bataya tha. Waha hospital me mere muh se nikal gayi aur ab wo kafi gusse me hai."
"Agar main hoti to main bhi hoti. Baki logo ne tumse kaha nhi tha ki wo gussa hogi?"
"Kaha tha ek do baar," Arun darte hue bola.
Esha muskura di. "Obviously tum alpha ho is relationship me,"
"Matlab?"
"Well, Supriya, Sneha aur Aarohi ke sath intimacy thodi alag hoti hogi Soniya se. Matlab Soniya is like your baby and sister also."
"Maine kabhi aise socha nhi."
"Koi nhi tum baat aage batao pehle."
Arun ne dobara sip liya. "To ye baat pata chalte hi usne hospital me hi mere thappad mara aur jab is subah main jaga to wo ghar par nhi thi. Main niche aaya aur Aarohi kuch keh rahi thi jo thodi achi baat nhi thi..yahi ki wo bas pura time apne liye chahti hai."
"Sahi kaha ki galat?"
Arun kuch der sochne laga. "Nahi, lekin wo sab isi tarah hain"
Esha daant dikhane lagi. "Poor guy,"
Arun bhi halke se has diya. "I know. I know. Lekin main serious hoon. Ye utna bura bhi nhi hai, Soniya hai thode is type ki. Mujhe bas samajh nhi aa raha ki iska solution kya hai. Mujhe to apne aap par gussa aati hai ki meri wajah se meri family me itni problems ho rahi hain."
"Shayad tumhe apni beheno ke sath sex nhi karna chahiye tha," Esha hasi rokte hue boli.
"Please, yaar Eshu."
"Aur kya chahte ho? Socho agar tum char ladkiyo ke sath dating kar rahe ho aur un sabko baki teeno ke bare me pata ho, to tumhe kya lagta hai ki kya hoga? Ladkiyon ka dimag kafi complex dhang se kaam karta hai, Arun."
"yeah, i know now."
"To main kuch salah doon?"
Arun ne sir hila diya.
"Just be honest. Unhe batao ki tumhare dil me kya hai. Problems se dur bhagne se kaam nhi chalne wala. Baat karo, yahi solution hai. Aur jahan tak main ummeed karti hoon, tumhari behene koi na koi rasta nikal hi lengi. Soniya gusse me hai aur use hona bhi chahiye lekin wo maan jayegi."
"Pkka?"
Esha ne sir hila diya. "Akhir wo bhi ek ladki hi hai aur pagal to hai na. Jab tak tum uske bare me nhi bhulte wo jaldi hi wapas aa jayegi."
Arun ko turant hi realize hua ki baat karke kitna acha feel ho raha tha.
"To wo alpha se kya matlab tha?"
"Dekho jaise bedroom me ya kisi public place me tumhari baat mante hain wo log. For example, jab tum log sex kar rahe hote ho, to tum jo kehte hoge wahi karti hongi wo log?"
Arun kuch pal sochne laga. "Yeah, kafi had tak. Supriya di aur Soniya kafi kuch waisi hi hain. Sneha di thodi aggressive ho jati hain. Aarohi uska koi bharosha nhi."
Esha hasne lagi ye baat sunke.
"yahi mere kehne ka matlab hai. Tum unhe batate ho to wo kuch karti hai. Mere case me thoda alag tha, Shawn aur main dono utne experienced nhi the to hum dono equal the lekin dhire dhire main alpha hoti gayi."
Arun sir hilane laga. "Maine kabhi tumhe as a alfa nhi dekha."
"Yup, wo pyari, sweet darne wali Esha kabhi ho bhi nhi skti thi.." Fir dono hasne lage.
Fir Arun khada ho gaya. "Thanks for listening aur help karne ke liye."
Esha muskurakar aage badhe aur uske gale lag gayi. Fir dono alag hue aur sath me bahar chalne lage.
"Thanks again, Eshu," Arun bahar jate hue bola.
**********
Arun jab ghar pahucha to kafi der ho gayi thi. Usne Soniya ko nhi dekha lekin uski car thi garrage me to pkka hogi. Wo kitchen me gaya aur apne liye sandwich banane laga fir hall me akar tv dekhne laga. Kuch der baad wo tv band karke upar gaya to Aarohi ka darwaja khula hua tha. Andar dekha to Aarohi apne pair par shorts chadhane ki kosis me lagi hui thi. Muskurate hue wo madad ke liye aage badha.
"Idhar," arun bola.
Use dhang se shorts pehnane ke baad wo usi ke sath kuch der let gaya.
Kafi der tak dono aise hi lete rahe fir Aarohi uski or mudi.
"Gussa ho?"
"Kyu bhala.."
"Kyuki I was acting like a bitch."
"Kisne kaha?"
Aarohi uske lag gayi. "Mujhe khud viswas nhi ho raha hai ki maine wo batein Soniya se kahi. Sorry."
Arun muskura diya."Koi nhi, Aaru. Aur agar sorry kehna hai to Soniya se kehna. Aur waise bhi tumhara bhi mood kharab tha just like Soniya. Jitna accident ka gussa tha tumne us par utar diya. Bas ab use sorry keh dena."
"Okay."
Kuch der aise hi letne ke baad jab Aarohi halke halke sone lagi to Arun utha aur apne room me jake so gaya.
*********
Arun agli subah ankh malte hue utha. Wo fresh hone ke liye room se bahar nikla to Soniya ke room ka darwaja khula tha aur wo fir waha nhi thi. Usne ek thandi aah bhari aur niche gaya. Bahar dekha to uski car bhi nhi thi. Kuch der baad Aarohi niche aayi. Breakfast karke wo class ke liye change karne chala gaya.
Classes se lautkar aaya tab bhi Soniya ghar par nhi thi. Usne Supriya se pucha to usne bataya ki wo apne ek friend ke ghar par hai usne baat ki thi.
Wo man mar kar apne room me chala gaya. Test the aage to padhte padhte hi desk par so gaya. Wo jaga to niche se kafi tej awazein aa rahi thi.
"Bhag jaldi aur dekh ab kya hua. pata chale khoon ho jaye kisi ka."
Arun jaldi se niche gaya to Sneha chair par baithi aur apna sir hatho me chupaye hue the.
"Hey," Sneha ne Arun ko dekhkar kaha.
"Hey. Abhi bhi chalu hain."
Wo sir hilane lagi. "Abhi jab Supriya di ne Soniya se kaha ki itni der tak kaha thi, pure din bhi nhi thi aur aarohi paas me hi baithi thi to fir shuru ho gayi."
"Tumhe chune ki jarurat nhi di," soniya ki tej awaz uske kaano me padi jab Arun waha pahucha.
"Guys," usne kha. "Guys," Arun is baar chilla ka bola. Un logo ke kaan me ju tak nhi rengi.
"Shut the fuck up!" Arun gilas ko jameen me fod kar bola.
Sabhi uski taraf chowk ke dekhne lage.
"Tum dono yaha baitho," Arun ne Aarohi aur Soniya ko samne chair par baithaya. Dono ek dusre ki taraf gusse se dekhte hue baith gayi.
"Okay, this is all my fault, all of it. ye kuch nhi hota agar maine tumhe pehle hi bata diya hota." wo sidhe Soniya ki ankho me dekhke bola.
"Maine bevkoofi kari, and I agree, ki you deserve better kyuki main tumhara boyfriend hi nhi bhai bhi hoon."
Pure ghar me khamoshi thi.
"Mere sir me awaz hai," Arun bola.
"Shut up."
"Ye koi subconscious mind ki tarah nhi hai. Balki aise jaise ki koi alag insan mere sir me rehta hai jiske sath me bahas kar skta hoon. To yahi mujhe idea deta hai ki sex karo, blowjob ke liye kaho wagairah wagairah. Ek din main subah shower me masturabate kar raha tha aur isi awaz ki wajah se mere muh se "Soniya" nikal gaya." wo Aarohi ki or dekh kar bola.
"Mana ki main soch raha tha tumhare bare me lekin is awaz ki vajah se tumhara naam meri jubaan par aaya. Usi din main tum sabko pool ke kinare dekh raha tha, mujhse raha nhi gaya to main andar jane laga dobara masturabate karne ke liye. Wahi di ne mujhe kapde utarne ke liye kaha to usi ke chakkar me mera wo unke chehre par takra gaya. by accident."
Supriya piche has di. Arun ne apni baat jari rakhi. "Uske baad inhone mujhe masturbate karte hue pakad liya aur ek chiz se dusri chiz hoti chali gayi aur fir ye sab shuru ho gaya.."
"Maine suna ki abhi aap keh rahi thi ki aap ye sab nhi chahti thi pehle. Ye kuch bhi nhi hua hota agar mere man me ye awaz nhi hoti, maybe its a good thing or bad thing I dont know."
"Mere kehne ka kuch galat matlab nhi hai lekin agar mummy papa ka accident nhi hua hota to ye awaz kabhi mere man me nhi aati. Main kabhi tum logo ke sath sexually involve nhi hua hota. And I love you all."
"Koi bahar wala mujhe keh skta hai ki main kitna bada tharki hoon ki char char girlfriend rakhta hoon lekin main ab tum logo ke bina apni life imagine bhi nhi kar skta. Tum sab ek jaisi hote hue bhi alag alag ho."
"Soniya, mera aur tumhara alag connection hai. Main janta hoon, chahe jo kuch bhi ho jaye, hum kabhi door nhi ho skte. Jab main tumhare sath pyar karta hoon meri sari duniya tumhare andar sama jati hai. Lekin iska matlab ye nhi hai ki mujhe baki sab ke sath kuch mehsoos hi nhi hota. Mujhe sabke sath apni duniya puri hoti najar aati hai. Aur mujhe mere future ke bare me bhi chinta nhi hai kyuki jab tak meri life me meri behene aur meri girfriends sath m e hain meri duniya khushiyon se bhari rahegi."
Arun ne Soniya ke hath pakad liye. "I'm so, so sorry that I hurt you. Mujhe tumhe pehle hi bata dena chahiye tha. Main bas sabke sath kuch waqt akele me bitana chahta tha. Sabke sath khul ke time spend karna chahta tha. I love you all, so much. I can never think of hurting any of you."
Charo log use aise dekh rahe the jasie wo chocolate ka bana ho gaya. Usne soniya ke hath chhode aur bina ek bhi shabd bole upar chala gaya.
Niche charo behene ek dusre ki taraf khamoshi se dekhne lagi.
