Abhijeet was staring at him continuously..
Abhijeet: tumne hi shuru ki thi na Puja?
Daya(smiled shyly): bas idea mera tha.. baki to hum sab mil kar karte hai..
Abhijeet: kaha se late ho tum itna energy? itni mental strength? tumhe bura nehi lagta kabhi? dukh nehi hoti? rona nehi aata?

Abhijeet: lekin Daya..
Daya: uhun.. aur kuch nehi.. koi lekin vekin nehi.. aap mere sath ja rehe hai.. and that's final.. he hold Abhijeet's shoulder.. made him turn and started pulling him
towards his room..
but stopped after some step..
Daya: oh no.. aare rukiye.. mai abhi aaya..
Abhijeet: aare.. kaha ja rehe ho?
Daya(turned towards him): aare sir.. mai to bhul hi gaya.. maine aapke liye naya dreass le kr aaya tha.. par gaari mei hi chod aaya.. do min rukiye mai abhi le kar aata

Abhijeet: aare.. par.. mere pas to... but Daya had left.. he came back after few moments while saying..
daya: haa haa.. pata hai.. aapke pas bohot sara achhe achhe dresses hai.. par wo sab purana ho gaya hai.. Durgaa puja mei sab ko naya dress pehenna parta hai..
naya shoes pehnne parte hai.. naya hair style banwana parta hai.. naya...
Abhijeet: abhi bhi baki hai? (Daya looked at him with question in his expression) nehi.. mai bol raha tha.. khatam nehi hua hai tumhara list?
Daya(embarressed): aaa.. haa.. haa.. sir ho gaya hai khatam...
Abhijeet: hmm.. achha hai.. to mai kya bolta hu suno.. mai yeh sab nehi pehenne wala..
Daya made an extreme sad face.. and looked down.. with "ok sir"..
Abhijeet(thinking): offf yeh larka.. agar jid karta to thik tha.. iska yeh ek hi bar mei meri baat manna.. mujhe hazam hi nehi hota hai.. pakka bura laga hoga.. is liye ek
hi bar mei ok sir bol dia..
Daya(thinking): hmmmmm.. sir.. aapke man mei kya chal raha hai.. yeh mai bohot achhi tarha se janta hu.. hai to aap mere hi sir na.. chal Daya.. thora aur latka le
aapna muh... and he made more sad face..
Daya: thik hai sir.. aapko jo pasand hai.. wohi pehen lijiye...
Abhijeet: maine kaha na.. mai jaunga nehi..
Daya looked at him with jerk.. and said... "fine sir.. mai chalta hu.. sorry to disturb you.. "
and he turned to go out.. Abhijeet snatched the shopping bag from Daya's hand.. Daya looked at him with surprise...
Abhijeet: gaari mei ja kar wait karo.. and saying this he went to his room...
Daya(with extreme happiness): yes yes yes... but soon he stopped as Abhijeet peeped out from his room.. with a angry and serious face..
Daya: sorry sir.. Abhijeet went inside and smiled.. "pagal larka"..
here Daya too smiled..
THEY CAME TO THE MAMTA FOUNDATION...
Daya: aayiye sir..
Abhijeet went with Daya to the ground where pandal was made..the surrounding was having a different essence with the sound of Dhak.. sound of knell.. the small
boys and girls were dancing with the rythm..
Panditji was pronunciating the sanskrit mantras.. and was doing the Aarti.. all others were standing there with closed palms..
Abhijeet was looking at all those continuously.. he was in a different world.. Daya's voice knocked him.. and he came back to the actual world..
Daya: chaliye sir.. Aarti ho rahi hai.. samne chalte hai..
Abhijeet nodded in yes.. they started going ahead..
Daya: waise sir ek baat bolu?
Abhijeet: kya?
Daya: aap is Panjabi aur Pajama mei na.. bohot mast dikh rehe ho..
Abhijeet: Daya.. sidhe sidhe puchte kyu nehi ki sir mai is Panjabi aur Pajama mei kaise dikh raha hu..
Daya: mai? mai kaha? mai to aap hi ko keh raha tha.. sachhi.. mujhe to aab tak sab yeh bol chuke hai ki mai bohot achha dikh raha hu.. mujhe khudko bhi to pata...
And he cut his tongue...
Abhijeet laughed out loudly.. Daya looked at him with extreme satisfaction.. and smiled broadly..
Abhijeet: haa haa.. bohot handsome dikh rehe ho... hua? aab chalo.. aao.. and he grabbed his hand and moved forward... Daya looked at him with surprise and smiled
with whole satisfaction..
but suddenly Abhijeet stopped..
Daya: kya hua sir? chaliye?
Abhijeet left his hand and looked another side.. Daya went near to him and stood infront of him..
Daya(softly): sir..
Abhijeet: nehi Daya.. mai.. mai kaise ja sakta hu? wo wo dekh rahe ho? (he pointed.. and Daya followed his signal..) Maa Durga..
Daya: haa to?
Abhijeet looked at him.. and his that gaze told Daya everything.. whatever was going on in his heart..
Daya sighed.. and took Abhijeet's hand.. and said.. "Maa Durga hum dono ko aandar bula rahi hai.. chaliye sir.. nehi to is bar bhi der ho jayegi.. "
Abhijeet looked at him with shock.. and then looked down.. Daya softly gave him a side hug.. and took him to the Durga Mandap..
All were lost in that 'Sandhyarti..'..
Abhijeet smiled now.. but his eyes were full of tears.. Daya saw that but did not tell him anything..
Aarti was finished..
Daya: sir wo ek chotasa peir (tree) jaisa dikh rehe hai aap..
Abhijeet(nodding in yes): hmm..
Daya: usme 9 alag alag peir hai.. wohi asli Maa Durga hai.. yeh to mitti ki murti hai sirf..
Abhijeet: achha?
Daya: haa.. kya aap bata sakte hai ki ismei 9 alag alag peir ke aansh kyu hote hai?
Abhijeet: nehi..
Daya: mujhe bhi nehi pata.. par main ek reason banaya hai..
Abhijeet: aapna aap bana lia?
Daya(childish expression): sir aap sun to lijiye..
Abhijeet: hmm bolo bolo..
Daya: iska aarth yeh hai ki Maa har jaga hoti hai.. kisi ek jaga nehi.. aap sochiye.. yeh alag alag peir aalag alag jaga ugta hai.. aur woh alag alag jaga se collect karte
hai.. matlab yehi hua na.. hai na sir?
Abhijeet(smiled broadly): bilkul sahi kaha tumne Daya.. mujhe bhi aisa hi lag raha hai yaha aakar.. thora bohot dimag hai tumhare pas..
Daya raised his collar with a broad smile..
Abhijeet(he looked at Daya): Thanks Daya..
Daya: aare ismei aap mujhe kyu thanks bol rehe the? Maa ke ichha ke bina kuch nehi ho sakta.. Maa ne khud aapko invite kia hai.. tab na aap aaye hai..mai to bas
zariya hu..
Abhijeet smiled..
Daya: haisye mat si.. yehi sach hai..
Abhijeet nodded..
Abhijeet: Daya.. Durga Mata Nari Sakti ka aadhar hai.. desh mei kitni dhumdham se Durga puja kia to jata hai.. par tum dekho.. aaj bhi humare society men dominent
hai..
Daya: haa.. sahi kaha aapne sir..
sir aapko pata hai.. durga murti banane ke liye prostitute area ki mitti ki jaroorat hoti hai.. yeh ek niyam hai sir..
Abhijeet: sach mei..
Daya: haa sir.. Maa sabki hai.. hai na sir..
Abhijeet: haa.. sabki..
IT was day of Astami Puja...
all were enjoying Sandhya Arati.. after the arati.. Pandit jee came... and told them to take the flame of the Panchpradip..
Abhijeet cupped his down turned palms on the flame and then raised his hands and touched to his forehead.. Daya was going to do the same.. but stopped.. as
Abhijeet touched his hand on Daya's forehead and chest.. Daya looked at him with amaze..
Abhijeet looked at him and became confused..
Abhijeet: kya hua?
Daya: kuch nehi..
Abhijeet: fir aisa kya dekh rehe ho..
Daya looked down and smiled..
Daya: kuch bhi nehi sir..
Abhijeet stared at him..
Daya: aab aapko kya ho gaya?
Abhijeet: ek bat batao Daya..
Daya: haa boliye..
Abhijeet: maine tumhare sath kabhi to achha behave nehi kia.. rather bohot badtameezi ki.. humesha tumhe hurt kia.. fir bhi tum ghum firke mere pas kyu aate ho?
Daya: kabhi sochke dekha hi nehi.. aap kahenge to fir aapke pas kabhi nehi jaunga sir..
Abhijeet: isse pehele to bohot bar kaha hai.. tab kaha suna tumne meri baat?
A sad shadow spread over Daya's face..
Daya: aab se manunga..
Abhijeet: achha.. to mai bol deta hu.. fir kabhi mere pas mat ana.. and it's an order..
Daya did not look up.. but nodded in positive and..
Daya: thik se sir.. aab se aap ka har order manunga..
Abhijeet: kyu? tab kyu nehi mane? aur ab kyu manoge?
Daya: tab aapko ekele nehi chor sakta tha mai..
Abhijeet: abhi chor sakte ho?
Daya looked up.. with a whispering "nehi".. and a tear drop fell down from his eye.. he felt that.. so he hurriedly turned to the other side..
Abhijeet was stunned..
Abhijeet: Dayaa.. he turned him back.. aye Daya.. aare ro kyu raha hai haa?
Daya was hiding his eyes from him..
Abhijeet(lifted his face up): mai to mazak kar raha tha re.. Daya.. aare mai kaha reh paunga tere bina aab? (Daya looked at him with instantly) haa.. sach mei.. adat par
gayi hai.. tere bina aab chayn nehi milta hai re mujhe..
another drop of tear rolled down from Daya's eye..
Abhijeet: aare dekho to koi.. yeh pagal fir se rone laga..
At this.. Daya could not resist himself from hugging the later one..
Abhijeet hugged him back...
Daya: aap bohot bure ho sir..
Abhijeet separated him..
Abhijeet: achha Daya hum dono ke bich yeh jo senior junior wala diwar hai.. kya wo dosti naam ka hatore todh nehi sakte tum?
Daya(smiled from heart): sir.. hum to hai.. 100% 200% 300% dost hai.. bilkul hai..
Abhijeet(in fake anger): hmm.. aaj kal doston ko naam ke badle sir bolte hai log...
Daya cut his tongue..
Abhijeet: kya hua?
Daya: sir.
Abhijeet: firse?
Daya: haa sir.. nehi sir.. mera matlab hai.. Abhijeet sir..
Abhijeet laughed out loudly..
Abhijeet: nehi.. tumse nehi hoga..
Daya looked down..
Daya: hona jaroori hai?
Abhijeet(sighed): nehi bilkul nehi... mai to bas aise hi.. sayed jyada mang lia.. I'm sorry Daya.. mujhe aapna limit mei rehena chahiye tha.. actually yaha aake itna
achha lag raha hai na... lag raha hai firse jindegi jina shuru kar du.. sach mei mujhe kabhi laga hi nehi tha ki mai firse aapna jingedi is tarha se ji bhi paunga.. time is
the healer.. really.. aur.. aur bas is liye thora jyada bol gaya.. I'm really sorry Daya.. mai... he was cut by Daya...
Daya: aisa mat bolo Abhijeet..
Abhijeet looked at him with jerk..
Daya smiled.. Abhijeet smiled too..
Daya: easy hi hai.. ek to itna bara naam.. fir uske baad sir.. mushkil tha.. yeh hi sahi hai.. hai na sir?
Abhijeet patted on his forehead.. "hey Maa Durgaa"..
Daya: aab kya hua?
Abhijeet: kuch nehi.. kuch bhi nehi.. chalo yaha se.. and he grabbed Daya's hand.. and took him to another side where all the children were enjoying themselves..
Daya(continued): nehi.. par aapne aisa kyu kaha?
Abhijeet: kaha na kuch nehi..
Daya: nehi.. maine Abhijeet to kaha na.. fir bhi tumne hey maa durgaa kyu bola? bolo na...
Abhijeet was smiling continuously..
Abhijeet: haa.. yeh hui na baat.. sir sir sunte sunte kan mei tala lag gaya tha mera.. aab jake thora sakoon mila hai..
Daya: haa wohi to? fir?
Abhijeet: oh god! thora chup rahoge Daya?
Daya: dekha.. firse firse.. Abhijeeetttt..
and with all these they joined others and started enjoying the evening..
"Woh ayega.. jaroor wapas ayega.."
He opened his eyes.. feeling a touch on his shoulder.. he looked back..
