THE STORY:

Daya came out from his house in search of Gopal.. and found him talking with Tarika..

"aachha to aap dono yaha par baateinkar rehe ho? kya baat ho rahi hai?"

"haa wo Shre.." he stopped without saying the full sentance as Tarika held his hand indicating him to stop..

"are dekho na Daya.. mere ghar ka gas burner kharab ho gaya hai.. isliye Gopal se puch raha tha ki Gopal wo thik kar sakta hai ki nehi?"

"wo achha yeh baat... aur maine socha kaha gayab ho gaya yeh banda.. aur mai ise dhoondhte hue idher aa gaya.."

Tarika laughed.. Gopal looked at her.. she spoke in low voice to Gopal's ear.. "Shreya aaj subha jate waqt kehe kar gayi hai ki Daya ko kuch pata nehi chalna chahiye hai ki woh yaha aayi thi"

Gopal too replied in lower voice "kyu?"

Tarika smiled and said.. "tum nehi samjhoge.."

"excuse me sir and madam.. aap dono kya tab se usur fusur kar rehe ho? haa?"

"off Daya.. tumhe kya laga Gopal bhag jayega? isliye tum use dhhondte hue bahar tak chale aaye?"

"kabhi nehi.." Daya protested strongly.. "jayega kaha hume chor kar? reh payega kahi jake?"

"huh.. ekdin mai chala hi jaunga.. mujhse yeh sab kuch dikha nehi ja raha hai.."

Both Daya and Tarika became silent.. after some moment Gopal started..

"boliye aap.. kyu dhoondh rehe the mujhko?"

"Gopal Bhaiya kaha hai? ghar par to nehi hai.. "

"bade shahb to nikal geye hai"

"nikal geye hai? itni subha subha?"

"haa.. bina kuch khaye.. bina chai piye hi nikal geye.. " saying this Gopal went inside the house..

Daya was angry on his elder brother.. "dekha dekha aapne? mujh par gussa hoke bhaiya aapne aapko kaise taqleef de rehe hai dekha aapne di?"

"pura to dekh nehi payi.. phir kabhi dekh lungi haa.. kyuki ab to yeh chalta hi rehega.. hai na? " saying this she too went away..

Daya was confused.. "yeh sympathy thi yah tease?".. he shook his head..

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

After entering the house Abhijeet heard some voices.. and those voices were coming from the kitchen.. being confused, he went towards the kitchen..

And he saw Gopal was fully enjoying the company of Tarika and Shreya..

"Shreya le jaldi kar.. Abhi bade shahb aa jayenge to humara to khair nehi.." Tarika was joking..

Shreya smiled and said.. "haa".. and just then her eyes fell on the gate of the kitchen where Abhijeet was standing.. and her 'haa' became a longer one like..

"haaaaaaaa.. aaa.. bhaiya.. aap aa geye?"

Hearing this Tarika too turned back and shocked seeing him..

Gopal smiled broadly and went ahead.. he was very confident.. "aap aa geye bade shahb? aap jaiye.. mai abhi chai le kar aata hu.."

He saw Abhijeet was looking at the two guests.. so he said.. "maine hi Tarika didi aur Shreya didi ko bulaya hai.. woh kya hai na Tarika didi ke ghar ka gas burner jo hai, wo kharab ho gaya hai.. isliye didid bahar se khana mangwa kar kha rah thi.. to maine kaha, mai bana dunga.. to didi mane nehi.. kaha tum kyu bekar phirse mere liye khana banaoge? to maine kaha humare ghar aa jayiye yaha se khana bana kar le jayiye.. "

Abhijeet was still silent..

"achha kia na maine?" Gopal asked..

Abhijeet didn't say anything.. and moved out from there..

Tarika got angry.. "dekha tum logone? dekha? ek shabd nehi kaha! matlab samjhte ho na is khamoshi ka? matlab hai, nikal jao tum log mere ghar se huh.."..

"aare Tarika didi.. aap samjhe nehi.. inka is khamoshi ka matlab hai.. unhone bura nehi mana.. aap dono yaha par reh sakte ho.. aur khana bhi yehi pe bana sakte ho.. mai janta hu mere bade shahb ko.. aap galat samjh rehe ho unko.."

"kuch galat nehi samjh raha hu.. achhi tarha se janti hu in jaiso ko.. ruko.. abhi muh todh jawab deke aati hu.. "

Gopal tried to stop her.. "didi meri baat suno.. bade shahb aisa nehi hai.. kisike mushkil mei woh humesha madad karte hai.. "

Shreya also tried.. "di, Gopal bhaiya bol rehe hai to ruk jao.. "

"tu chup reh".. scolding Shreya she went behind Abhijeet..

"suniye".. she called..

Abhijeet stopped.. but didn't turned back..

"aap ka jitna bhi nuksaan ho raha hai meri waja se.. matlab jitna bhi gas khatam ho raha hai.. uska bill mai pay kar dungi"

This time Abhijeet turned back and frowned..

Tarika continued.. "aur bhi kisi chiz ke liye bill pay karna ho to mujhe bata dena without hesitation.. mai pay kar dungi.. aapko yeh samjhne ki jaroorat nehi hai ki mai yaha par aapka chiz free mei istamal karne aayi hu... "

Abhijeet chewed his teeth.. and called Gopal..

"Gopal.. idher aa jaldi.."

Gopal came there with a scared face..

"kya karta hai tu pura din? kisiko bhi ghar ke anadar aane deta hai? koi bhi aakar kuch bhi karta hai humare ghar mei? ek baat kaan khol kar sunle tu.. agli bar aisa kuch dekha na maine to tujhe naukri se nikal dunga mai.." he said so.. looked at Tarika with angry eyes.. and then went away from there..

Tarika's mouth remained open..

"didi aapko kya jaroorat thi yeh sab keheni ki? aap bade shahb ko samjh hi nehi paye.."

"aur na tumhare chote shahb" added Shreya..

Tarika looked at both.. and then went out of that house...

"Gopal bhaiya.. aaj mai jaati hu bhaiya ko chai dene.." Shreya told..

. . . . . . . .

She came to Abhijeet's room.. and called him with low tone.. "bbhaiya"

Abhijeet looked at her.. "aab tum bhi sunane aayi ho na? sunao.. aab to mai bas sunne ke liye hi reh gaya hu.. koi bhi aa kar kuch bhi sunake chala jata hai.. aab tume jo sunana hai sunao.. aur jao yaha se.. pleaseee.."

Shreya closed her eyes hearing that scolding.. in trembling voice she said.. "nehi.. mai to bas chai dene aayi thi.."

"Kya?" Abhijeet asked..

Shreya just showed the cup without saying anything.. her hand was trembling in fear.. Abhijeet saw that and a light smile appeared on his lips..

"wapas le kar jao.." now he said in a soft tone..

hearing that Shreya got some confidence.. so she said.. "nehi piyenge bhaiya?"

Abhijeet was irritated.. "achha suno.. tum mujhe bhaiya kyu bulate ho?"

Shreya smiled and said.. "isliye nehi bulati kyuki aap Daya aapko bhaiya bulate hai.. isliye bulati hu kyuki mujhe achha lagta hai.. "

Abhijeet didn't say anything but just kept staring at her.. Shreya forwarded the cup.. and Abhijeet took it like a good boy..

After some time.. he asked her.. "tumhara naam Shreya hai na?"

Shreya smiled broadly and said.. "haa.. meri maa ka diya hua naam hai.. par mujhe meri maa Shree bulati thi.. abhi bhi mere friends mujhe Shree hi bulate hai.."

"kaun? Daya bulata hai?"

Shreya stopped smiling and looked at him..

Abhijeet ignored that.. "Daya tumse bohot... tum dono bohot achhe dost ho na?"

Shreya laughed out.. "dost? Daya to mujhse nafrat karta hai"..

"jhoot mat bolo" Abhijeet raised his voice.. "nafrta karta hai isliye usdin raat ko tumhe aapne room mei jaga dia tha usne?"

"bhaiya usdin mai majboor thi.. kisi aur doston ke ghar ja nehi sakti thi mai akeli larki utni raat ko.."

"Daya ke ghar to aa payi thi.."

"usdin mei is ghar par Daya ke bharose nehi.. aapke bharose aayi thi.. "

"Kya? mere bharose.."

"haa.. Daya se aapka jitna tareef maine suna hai.. usse mujhe yeh laga tha bas yehi ek jaga hai jaha mai nishchint hoke ja sakti hu.. aap mujhe nehi lautayenge.. "

"kaun mangta hai tum logo ka tareef aur bhrosa?" Abhijeet shouted.. "jo maine manga tha de paya tumhare dost?".. his voice was choked.. "keheta hai jab khudka chiz hoga tab sochke dekhunga.. kandhe se jise utara hai use yeh samjhne dijiye ki khara hone ke liye uska bhi do pair hai.. ek jhatke mei paraya kar dia mujhe.. " a tear drop rolled down from his eyes.. he realized that and mopped that hurriedly.. "tum ghar nehi jaogi? 8:30 baj raha hai.. usdin to train miss ho gaya tha.."

Shreya looked at him with surprise.. Abhijeet got the meaning of her expression so said.. "maine nehi pucha tha Gopal se.. usne khud bataya tha mujhe.. "

Shreya smiled lightly and said.. "CID walo ko jhoot bolna nehi aata hai na bhaiya?"

"what?"

"kuch nehi..." she stopped speaking.. but was standing there..

"kya hua? jao bhi abhi.."

"haa.. wo.. mujhe aapse kuch kehena tha"

"bolo"

"100 rupay udher denge please.." she said it hurriedly..

Abhijeet got confused.. "kya.. 100 rupay.."..

"haa.. dawai kharidna hai.. bhaiya ke liye.. wo kya hai na.. jaha mai tuitions deti hu.. waha se abhi tak salary nehi mili.. to..."

Abhijeet took out a 100 rupee note and gave it to her.. "udher nehi de raha hu.. rakhlo.."

"bohot bohot shukriya bhaiya.. aaj mai bhaiya ka dawai nehi kharid pati.."

"tumhare bhaiya bimar hai?"

Shreya nooded his head.. "haa.. maa bauji to kab ke gujar geye.. aab bhaiya bhi bimar hai.. to ghar mei mai hi ek earning member hu.. tuitions deti hu.. dance sikhati hu.. bachho ko bhi padhati hu.. khud bhi padhai kari hu.. (she smiled) aur mind fresh rakhne ke liye... (she stopped)"

"mind fresh rakhne ke liye kya?" Abhijeet asked in curiosity..

"kuch nehi.."

"tum reheti kaha ho?"

"kya hoga janke? aapko to mai jane bhi nehi bol sakti.. kisi ko bhi nehi bol sakti.. ek ek kamre ka ghar hai.. jaha bhaiya rehete hai.. aur mai kitchen mei.. kou aaye to use bithane ka jaga nehi hai mere ghar mei.. rented house hai.. 3 mahine ka kiraya baki hai.. pata nehi kab nikal denge ghar se.. phir pata nehi kaha jaungi bhaiya ko le kar.. koi hai nehi mera bhaiya ke siwa.. (she smiled with tears in her eyes)"

Abhijeet was really shocked hearing all these.. both were silent for sometime.. Abhijeet had nothing to say further more.. so Shreya initiated..

"aab mai chalti hu.. train miss ho jayega to bhaiya ko aaj bhi akela rehena parega.. "

She left the room nad the house..

Outside she met Tarika.. "aare di.. aap yaha kyu khare ho? "

"tere liye.. kya kar rahi thi itni der tak andar?"

Shreya smiled.. "kuch nehi.. chai dene gayi thi bhaiya ko.."

"Shreya tu.. offff this is too much.. tu use chai pilane gayi thi? us ko? us sadu ko?"

"Diiii.. aap galat samjh rehe ho? bhaiya bohot achhe insaan hai.. pata hai bhaiya ne mujhe 100 rupay diye hai.. mere bhaiya ka dawaikharidne ke liye.. "

"use kaise maloom tere bhaiya ke bare mei? tune bataya?"

"haa.. paisa bhi maine hi mangi.. khud se"

Tarika looked at her angrily.. "abhi jake lauta de.. mai tujhe deti hu paisa.. tu abhi jake lauta.."

Shreya smiled.. "di.. baat ko samjho.. udher liya hai.. to wapas karne ke liye to phirse ekdin aana parega na?"

"Oo achha.. to tu phirse aana chahti hai iske pas?"

"haa.. aisa insaan mai phir se aana chahti hu.."

"disguating.. mar tu"..

"tumhe bhi der nehi hai aisi maut marne mei.." Shreya said mischieviously..

"kya kaha?" Tarika asked narrowing eyes..

"kuch nehi" said smiling Shreya..
