"राक्षस-ए-इश्क"

......................
"सिक्के के दो पहलू जिस तरह,
प्यार के दो पहलू उस तरह,
दोहरे पहलू से रूबरू
करायेगा Nits ।
ये है निर्भय की अनोखी कहानी
"राक्षस-ए-इश्क"।।
Pyaar, Ishq, Mohabbat na jaane is par kitno ne kitni kahani likh dali hai...sabne ise bade khoobsoorat dhang se apnaya or sajaya hai. Kisi ne shabdo se, kisi ne kavitao se, ehsaaso se, kahaniyo se, aansu se, apnepan se...
Mai sabka dost Nits... Lekar aaya hu Ek aisi hi Anokhi Kahani... Jisme hum pyaar k ek alag anokhe roop ko dekhenge....
To dosto.... Pahado ki thandi hawao ko chhune or Registaan ki retili dharti ko sajda karne ke baad mai Nits aap ko le kar chal raha hu samundar kinare base Mumbai sheher ki ek society me... Jaha to din raat chehel pehel machi rehti hai Lekin ek building k ek flat me shaam k 7 baje hi kuch udaasi si chhayi huyi thi... Wo puri building apne aap me hi us flat ki manhoosiyat ki kahani suna rahi thi... Ghar Ki light band thi or darwaja bhi bahar se lock tha...
Kuch der baad ek 24 saal ka ladka us daewaaje ko khol kar light on karta hai....tabhi ek awaaz aayi.
"Rihaan... Tum aa gaye, chalo accha hai maine dinner almost ready kar liya hai", Nirbhay ne jabardasti ki muskurahat chehre par late huye kaha.
"O my baby...tum mera kitna khayaal rakhte ho,, isliye to maine tumhe apne liye chuna hai", Rihaan ne Nirbhay ko baahon me bharte huye gaal par ek kiss kiya.
"Tum change kar lo mai dinner serve karta hu", Nirbhay ne uske haath se bag lete huye kaha.
Dining table par dono dinner kar rahe the jaha Rihaan apne office k kisse suna kar khud me hi magan hokar huse jaa raha tha wahi Nirbhay Rihaan ko husta dekh halaka sa hus deta....Lekin uska dilo dimaag jaise kahi or khoya hua tha.
Raat ko sote waqt... Rihaan Nirbhay k kareeb aana chahta tha lekin Nirbhay ka bilkul mann nahi tha... Shayad Rihaan ko Nirbhay ka ye rukha vyabhaar pasand nahi aaya... Nirbhay ko bhi iska andaza ho gaya tha... Lekin wo Rihaan ko naraj bhi nahi karna chahta tha. Isliye usne Rihaan ko apne nazdeek aane se nahi roka... Dono kareeb aa chuke the... Nirbhay ne bemann se hi sahi lekin Rihaan ko khush karne me koi kasar nahi chhodi... Dono ke badan se kapde gayab ho chuke the, ek hi chadar me dono ne khud ko samet liya tha, Nirbhay uske niche tha or uska pura badan Rihaan ki giraft me tha...room ki light band ho chuki thi. Or andhere se ghana room dono ki dard bhari awajo se bhar chuka tha jisme aanho ki karhahat saaf sunayi de rahi thi...
Next Morning....
"Nirbhay...Mai office ka liye nikal raha hu..." Rihaan ne apna bag uthate huye kaha.
"Ye lo tumhara lunch box", Nirbhay ne bhagte huye aakar use lunch box diya.
"O my sona... Tum mera kitna khayaal rakhte ho tum na hote to mera kya hota ", Rihaan ne use kas k gale lagaya jis par Nirbhay ne fiki smile de di.
"Accha mai aaj bhi bahar se door lock k jaa raha hu, jisse tumhe koi disturb na kar sake.. koi bhi door knock kare to kehna raat ko mere office se aane k baad aaye", Rihaan jaa chuka tha or Nirbhay fir ek baar itne bade flat me akela reh gaya tha.
Kuch der baad.....
Bahar baarish ka aagmann ho chuka tha...Yu to Nirbhay ko baarish bahut pasand thi lekin is baar use baarish k aane par kuch khaas sukun na mila tha. Wo bahar kapde utarne balcony me aaya jaha se lagbhag pure Mumbai sheher k darshan ho rahe the. samundar ki lehro ki sarsarahat kaano tak sunayi de rahi thi.. Mosam to suhana tha hi isliye wo balcony me hi chair par baith gaya or apne beete kal me kho gaya...
Kuch Months Pehle... (Flashback Start)
"Nirbhay... Tum ready ho? ... Mai tumhara niche wait kar raha hu... Araam se aana... Kisi ko pata nahi chalna chahiye.", Rihaan ki itni baat sunkar usne phone cut kar Kiya or apna bag utha kar dabe paav se chal kar ghar chhodne laga.
Tabhi usne bheegi aankho se ek najar apne ghar ko dekha jaha uska bachpan beeta tha... Lekin apne aansu bahate huye ghar se nikal gaya.
"Kaha reh gaye the mai kab se tumhara wait kar raha hu", Rihaan us par chhillaya
"Wo mai himmat baandh raha tha ghar chhodna mere liye asaan nahi hai," Nirbhay k chehre se udaasi saaf jhalak rahi thi.
"Accha ye rona dhona baad me karna, kisi ne hume dekh liya to problem ho jaayegi", Rihaan ne uske aanuso par bilkul dhyaan nahi diya or dono ghar se bhaag kar Mumbai sheher aa gaye jaha Rihaan ka apna ghar or apni nokari thi. Rihaan ka is duniya me koi nahi tha or Nirbhay ka is duniya me hote huye bhi paraye ho chuke the.
(Flashback End)
Dono ko saath rehte kuch hi time hua tha.. Shuru me dono ki life bahut acchi thi... Rihaan Nirbhay ko kisi Chiz ki kami nahi hone deta tha. Dono saath rehte, saath ghumte, saath sote the.
Nirbhay Rihaan ka pura khayaal rakhta tha. Or Rihaan bhi Nirbhay ko kisi Chiz ki kami nahi hone deta tha. Lekin
Ek din...
Juhu beach par dono haatho me haath daale samundar ki lehro k beech chuski gola khaate huye dhalte suraj ka luft utha rahe the. Tabhi achanak kuch ladko ka ek group masti majak karte huye saamne se aaya or jald baazi me ek ladka Nirbhay se takra gaye. Is accident me Nirbhay ka barf ka gola niche gir gaya. Ye baat Rihaan se bardaasht nahi huyi.
"Kameene dekh k nahi chal skata", Rihaan ne unme se ek ka collar pakad liya.
"Rihaan chhodo use...", Wo use chhudane laga
"Nahi... Inko to mai sabak sikha k rahunga", itna kehte hi Rihaan ne sabko maarna shuru kar diya jaise uske sar par paagal pan sawar ho chuka tha.
Rihaan ka aisa khatarnaak roop Nirbhay ne pehle kabhi nahi dekha tha. Jaise taise kar usne Rihaan ko sambhala.
In home...
Nirbhay gusse me Rihaan par chilla raha tha
"Tumne unhe kyu mara, tumhe kuch ho jata to, ek barf ka gola hi gira tha koi aasmaan nahi tut pada tha jo tum itna bedard ho gaye", Rihaan murti bana uski baatein sune jaa raha tha. Kuch time baad achanak Rihaan ne harkat ki...
"Chup ho jaa, mai kehta hu chup jo jaa", usne ghar ka saman todna shuru kar diya.
Nirbhay samjh hi nahi paya k Rihaan ko ho kya gaya hai.
"Tumhe ya tumhari kisi bhi Chiz ko koi nuksaan pahuchayega to mai use zinda nahi chhodunga", Rihaan ka ajeeb bartaav abhi tak thama nahi tha.
Nirbhay bilkul darr gaya usme Rihaan ko rokne ki himmat bhi na thi, bas uske paagalpan ko dekh aansu bahaye jaa raha tha.
Next day....
Pichli raat ko aaya tufaan tham chuka tha.
Ghar fir se pehle jaisa ho gaya tha. Rihaan jab so k utha usne aise behave kiya jaise kuch hua hi nahi ho. Nirbhay ko ye bahut ajeeb lagi but wo khush tha k ab sab theek hai.
Kuch din baad....
Shaam k saath baj chuke the Rihaan k office se aane ka time ho chuka tha. Rihaan kuch der k liye building se niche compound me aaya... Tabhi usi k building ka ek ladka jo uska neighbour tha uske paas aaya...
"Hello.... Myself Akhil", usne use rok kar kaha.
"Hello ", Nirbhay ne bhi pyaar se jawab diya.
"Aap shayad humari building me naye hai", Usne dosti karni chahi.
"Ji... Haan, mai Rihaan ka dost hu ab usi k saath rehta hu", Nirbhay ne jawab diya.
Rihaan ka naam sun kar jaise Akhil k paseene chhut gaye.
"Kya hua aap theek to hai na ", Nirbhay uski tang haalat dekh chonk gaya.
"Aap us psycho k saath rehte ho", Akhil k muh se fisla hi tha.
"Kya bakwaas kar rahe hai aap", Nirbhay gussaya
Itne me Rihaan ki gaadi ne horn baja kar aane ka farmaan suna diya tha.
Rihaan ne gaadi se utarte huye dekh liya tha k Akhil Nirbhay se chipka khada hai. Isse pehle Rihaan waha pahuchta Akhil 9 2 11 jo liya.
"Wo yaha kya kar raha tha?", Rihaan ne Nirbhay k paas aa kar kaha.
"Pata nahi... Bakwaas kar raha tha", Nirbhay ne muh sikodte huye kaha
Rihaan Nirbhay ka haath pakad kar kheechte huye upar flat me aaya.
"Kya hua Rihaan, aap theek to hai na ", Nirbhay halka sa dara.
"Tumhe kitni baar kaha hai akele ghar se bahar mat nikla karo, or anjaan logo se baat bhi mat kiya karo". Rihaan us par chhillaya
"Sorry Rihaan... Lekin mai to bas walk lene gaya tha or Akhil hi mujhse aa kar baat karne laga", Nirbhay ne safayi di.
"Tumhe ek baar me baat samjh nahi aayi, mai tumse bahut pyaar karta hu or kisi bhi haalat me tumhe khona nahi chahta.. ",Rihaan ne use gale lagate huye kaha.
Uska aisa pyaar or possessiveness dekh Nirbhay ka dil gad gad ho gaya k Rihaan usse kitna pyaar karta hai.
Magar agle hi pal
"Aaj k baad se tum ghar se akele bahar nahi jaaoge.... Mai kal se main door lock kar k jaaunga jisse koi tumhe disturb na kare Or na ye chahta hu k kisi ko pata chale k hum dono gay hai..Meri bahut ijjat hai yaha", Rihaan ki baat sun uske to hosh ud gaye.
"Lekin Rihaan ", usne use roka
"Maine ek baar kaha na... mai apni jimmedaari par tumhe laya hu... Mai bilkul nahi chahta k tumhe kuch ho jaaye "Rihaan ne apni baat keh di thi uski zidd ko todna Nirbhay se nahi hone wala tha.
Ab daily Rihaan Nirbhay ko ghar me lock kar k jata tha. Nirbhay use mana nahi kar paya. Shayad uska pyaar Rihaan k pagalpan se jayda bada tha.
Ek din...
"Jaan... Chalo na kahi bahar chalte hai", Nirbhay ka mann kahi azaad hawa me ghumne ka hua.
"Yaar... Le de k office se ek off hota hai us me bhi tumhe ghumna hai ", Rihaan ne use ignore kiya.
Ye dekh Nirbhay k mann hoonk si uthi. Lekin usne khud ko sambhala or baat aage badhai.
"Mai kya soch raha tha.... Mai din bhar ghar me bore ho jata hu kyu na mai bhi kahi job kar lu.. Hume financial help bhi ho jayegi or mera mann bhi laga rahega", Nirbhay ne itna sab ek saans me bol diya tha.
"Tumhe job ki kya jarurat hai, mai hoon na tumhari har jarurat ko pura karne k liye", Rihaan bhadka.
"Lekin mai..... ", Nirbhay aage kuch bol hi paya tha k Rihaan ne uske gaal par ek jor daar chanta raseed diya.
"Maine kaha na nahi... mai tumhe khush rakh to raha hu... Tumhe kahi jaane ki jarurat nahi hai ",
Aaj Rihaan ne pehli baar Nirbhay par haath uthaya tha.. Uske to aankho se aansu hi nikal aaye. Ye dekh Rihaan ko bhi accha nahi laga.
"Sorry baby.... I m really sorry.... Ab tum zidd kar rahe the to mujhe gussa aa gaya...", itna kehte huye Rihaan ne uske gaalo par kiss kiya.
"Actually mai nahi chahta k tum mujhse door ho ya koi tumhe mujhse door kar de.
You know na I love u. Nirbhay ko uska badlta roop samjh se bahar tha. Usne darte huye Haan me sar hila diya. Ab usne job karne ka khayaal mann se nikaal diya tha.
Ek din ...
Shaam hi chuki thi. Unka flat par aaj ek baar fir manhoosiyat ka parda dala hua tha,
Roz ki tarha aaj bhi Nirbhay andhere me baith apni kismat par ro kar apne parents ko yaad kar raha tha. Jaha use itni azaadi thi kuch bhi karne ki wahi aaj use khuli hawa me saans lene k liye bhi Rihaan ka mohtaaz hona pad raha tha... Lekin wo bagawat bhi nahi kar sakta tha kyuki ye raah usne khud chuni thi or wo us bedard insaan se behad pyaar karta tha. Maarta kya na karta.
Tabhi achanak gahr ki light on huyi...
"Rihaan... Tum aa gaye aaj to bahut der... ", wo bolte bolte ek dum se ruka.
"Kon ho tum or yaha kya kar rahe ho?", apne saamne kisi or ladke ko khada dekh uski saanse atak gayi.
"Plz aap dare nahi.... Mai Shashank hoon... Rihaan ka dost", wo itna keh hi raha tha k piche se Rihaan aa gaya.
"Nirbhay.. Ye mera frnd hai... Office me mere saath kaam karta hai... Daily mera lunch box hadap leta tha... To socha aaj ise dinner kara du tumhare haathon se bana", Rihaan ne Nirbhay ka shaq door kiya.
"Hello... I m Nirbhay", usne Shashank se shek hand karne k liye haath aage badhaya.
Pata nahi kyu Shashank ne Nirbhay k aankho me chhupi udaasi ko bhaap liya tha.
Sabne mil kar dinner kiya... Shashank ne jolly nature se Nirbhay ko khoob hasaya. Aaj wo shayad bahut din baad khul kar hasa tha... Nirbhay ko bhi Shashank ek accha ladka laga.
Rihaan or Shashank aapas me matargashti kar rahe the or Nirbhay dono ko dekh mann hi mann muskura raha tha.
"Yaar... Rihaan itna laziz dinner kiya hai... Ab to ek ice cream banati hi hai. ", Shashank ne friendly andaaz me demand ki.
"But.. Ice cream to nahi hai", Nirbhay ne use toka
"Koi baat nahi mai jhhat se gaya or fat se le kar aaya", Rihaan foorti se utha or haath me car ki keys ghumate huye bahar ice cream lene chala gaya.
Ab pure ghar me Nirbhay or Shashank akele the.
Nirbhay ko bahut odd lag raha tha... Kyuki Rihaan k alawa wo ghar me kisi ko nahi pata tha or dusare logo se baat karna maano uske liye sapna sa ho.
Shashank ne usse uncomfortable hota dekh normal karne ki koshish ki.
"To kya tum Rihaan k saath khush ho? ", usne bade shaleenta se pucha
"Kya? ", Rihaan chonka
"Dekho... Rihaan mera accha dost hai... Wo mujhse kuch nahi chhupata... Mai jaanta hoon k tum dono gay ho or relationship me ho.", Shashank ko sab sach pata tha.
Ye jaankar Nirbhay ka aadha darr kam ho gaya.
"Khushi... Hehehe... Khushi kya hoti hai wo to pata nhi bas Rihaan ko khush dekh mai khush ho jata hu", Nirbhay ne chaand ki or muh kar k kaha
Lekin Shashank ka muh to Nirbhay k maasoom chehre par hi tika tha. Wo use ghoore jaa raha tha.
Jab Nirbhay ki najar Shashank par padi to usne paya uski najare use hi dekh rahi hai.
Dono ki najar ek pal k liye takrayi... Najaro ke milan k khel me Nirbhay piche hat gaya lekin Shashank ek umda khiladi ki tarha datta raha or najare us par gadaye rakhi.
"Mai abhi aaya", ye bol kar Nirbhay jaise hi palta Shashank ne uska haath pakad k apni taraf kheench liya.
"Ye kya kar rahe hai aap... Chodo mujhe..", Nirbhay tadapti macchli ki tarha chhatapta raha tha lekin Shashank use chhodne ko taiyyar hi nhi tha.
"Sssssshhhhhh", ye keh kar Shashank ne apni ungali uske hontho par rakhi.
"Mai Rihaan ka dost hu... Wo kaisa insaan hai mai acchi tarah jaanta hu... Jab se usne tumhare baare me bataya tha mai tumse milna chahta tha.... Ye dekhna chahta tha aisa kon sa farishta hai jiske liye bhagwaan ne ek Raakshash ko chuna hai." Shashank ki baatien Nirbhay ko apna banane lagi thi.
Dono balcony me khade chaand ki roshani me ek dusare ko dekh rahe the...
Najdeekiya to pehle se thi par ab dono ek doosre ki khushboo me khone lage the. Shashank k sar par na jaane kya bhoot sawar hua wo apne hoth Nirbhay k labo k kareeb le jaane laga. Nirbhay bhi madhosh ho chuka tha... Usne to apni aankhen band kar li. Lekin Shashank ek nishanebaaz ki tarha apne lakshya par focused tha.
Dono k hontho ne lambe faasle ko kam kar liya tha.., unki saanse aapas me takra rahi thi.
Bas milan hone hi wala tha tabhi ek aahat huyi.
"Mai ice cream le kar aa gaya", Rihaan janab padhaar chuke the.
Nirbhay ek dum se pichhe hata or bhaagta hua Rihaan k paas gaya... Lekin use kuch nahi bataya... Kyuki wo uska nature acche se jaanta tha.
Teeno ne ice cream khayi or Shashank Nirbhay k liye kayi ankahe sawal chhod kar chala gaya.
Din bitate gaye... Rihaan ki pagal pan wali harkatein kam nahi huyi thi lekin Nirbhay me kuch naya privartan jarur aaya tha.
Wo ab pehle ki tarha khush rehne laga tha.
Us band ghar me bhi use kuch naya pan lagne laga tha.
Ek din...
Din k 2 baj rahe the... Rihaan asusal office me tha... Or Nirbhay roj ki tarha ghar me... Tabhi achanak main door khulne ki awaaz aayi.
Nirbhay chonka... Kyuki door to bahar se lock tha Or key Rihaan k paas thi... Use laga Rihaan aaj office se jaldi aa gaya hai. Wo bhaag k room se bahar aaya to khud k saamne Shashank ko paya.
"Tum yaha kaise ?", uske muh se bas itna hi nikla
Shashank jaldi se aakar Nirbhay k gale lag gaya.
"Ye kya kar rahe ho tum? ", wo use chhudane ki naakam koshish kar raha tha.
"I love you Nirbhay..., mai tumhe is haalat me nhi dekh sakta... Maine Rihaan k bag se ghar ki keys churayi jisse tumhe aazaad kar saku..", ye sunkar Nirbhay k to hosh ud gaye,
"nahi ye sahi nhi hai", Nirbhay ne muh fera
"Plz tum apni life kisi jallad k liye kyu tabha kar rahe ho", Shashank gidgidaya.
"Ye Meri zindagi hai.. Maine khud chuni hai ye raah or ab isi me rehna hai mujhe marte dam tak", Nirbhay ne kada faisla le liya tha par Shashank bhi piche hatne wala nahi tha.
"Khushiya or azaad duniya tumhara intezaar kar rahi hai", Shashank ne uska housla badhaya.
"Lekin mai Rihaan se bahut pyaar karta hu use dhokha de kar kaise jaa sakta hu", wo bhi atal tha apni baat par
"For god sake .. Rihaan tumhari kamzori hai taqat nahi", Shashank ne gusse me Nirbhay k dono baaju kas k pakad liye the.
"Shashank mujhe dard ho raha hai", wo tilmila utha
Shashank se uska dard saha nhi gaya or apni pakad dheeli kar di. Par dono ek baar fir kareeb aa chuke the or is baar kisi k aane ka bhi koi moka nhi tha.
Shashank is baar piche hatne wala nhi tha usne Nirbhay k baal kas kar pakde
"Agar mai tumhe Rihaan se chura lu to tumhe uski dikhawati duniya ki kaid se azaad hona hi padega... I m sorry k mai aisa kar raha hu But I have to do this." , itna kehte hi usne apne hoth Nirbhay k hontho se mila diye.
Nirbhay machal k reh gaya. Shashank uske labo k ras ka paan kar raha tha... Nirbhay ki bhi aankhen band thi... Dono ab ek dusare ne kho chuke the... Din ka peher qayamat le kar aaya tha. Kab Nirbhay Shashank ka ho gaya use pata hi nhi chala.... Ye dono ki dusari mulaqaat thi par jaise sadiyon se ek dusare ko jaante the.
Shashank ne Nirbhay ko god me uthaya or bed room me le jaane laga Nirbhay ne bhi use mana nhi kiya... Room ka darwaja bhi band karne ki jarurat bhi nhi thi kyuki ghar me bas wahi dono the.
Jis bed par roj Rihaan Nirbhay k jism ka fayeda uthata tha aaj usi bistar par Shashank ka pyaar barasne wala tha... Rihaan to ek pyaara dhokha tha kadwa sach to Shashank tha....
Shashank ne apne saath saath Nirbhay ko bhi kapdo se mukt kar diya.... Suraj ki kirne dono ko hire ki tarha chamka rahi thi... Jab Shashank ne Nirbhay k ling ko apne haath me liya to Nirbhay pura tadap utha or bina rok tok k khud ko Shashank k hawale kar diya... Rihaan k saath bitayi kayi raaton ne jitna usse madahosh nahi kiya tha utna ek din ne kar diya tha. Shayad wo raat ka pyaar pyaar tha hi nahi bas ek jarurat thi.
Ab dono ek dusare k hone me lage huye the.... Dard to tha magar pyaar ka dard...
Ye tufaan din se lekar shaam tak nahi thama.
Kab shaam ho gayi dono ko pata bhi nahi chala.
Idhar Rihaan k lotne ka waqt ho chuka tha. Par kisi ko kuch khabar nahi thi..
Rihaan building k andar aa chuka tha... Jab wo flat k door k paas aaya to dekh k chonk gaya.. Ghar ka main door khula hua tha. Usne sabse pehle apne bag me key check ki Lekin keys to nadarad thi. Wo darte darte ghar me aaya.
"Nirbhay.... Nirbhay... "usne aawaje lagayi lekin koi jawab nahi aaya.
Jab wo room me gaya to waha ka najara dekh kar uska dimaag ghoom gaya.
Nirbhay or Shashank ek chadar me me lete the.
"Ye sab kya hai. ", wo cheekha
Uski cheek se dono hadbada k uth gaye... Nirbhay ko to hosh hi nahi tha jab use hosh aaya tab ehsaas hua k usne kitni badi galti kar di hai.
Nirbhay or Shashank ne jaldi se kapde pehne.
"Mai jaanta tha... Tum jaise neech, ghatiya soch wale kabhi kisi k sage nahi ho sakte... Jo apne maa baap ka nahi hua wo mera kya hoga... ", Rihaan ki baatien Nirbhay ko chubh rahi thi. Lekin wo shaant khada tha.
"Isliye mai tujhe kahi bahar jaane nahi deta tha... Mujhe pata tha tere chaal chalan kaise hai... Aree tujhe maine itna aiso aaram diye... Har demand puri ki sirf isliye nahi k tu kisi or k saath soye... Tu sirf meri jaagir hai... Mai tujhe apne liye yaha laya tha jisse sirf mera mann bhare na k sabka", Rihaan ne gusse me sab sach bol diya tha.
Sacchai sun kar Nirbhay ka dil chhan se tut chuka tha... Jabki Shashank khush tha..kyuki ye sab Shashank ka plan tha jisse Nirbhay k saamne Rihaan khul kar aa sake.
Aaj Rihaan k bhole chehre k piche chhipe raakshash Nirbhay k saamne aa chuka tha. Nirbhay Rihaan ko pyaar ka prateek samjh raha tha, jabki Rihaan use apni hawas mitane ki machine.
"Kyu tumne mera use kiya? ", Nirbhay ne uska gala padake rotehuye pucha.
"Haan kiya... tu hai hi use karne wali Chiz...Mai jaanta hu Us din Akhil k saath bhi tu deal kar hoga...Use mohit kar raha tha... Isliye maine tujhe ghar me kaid kar rakha jisse tu sirf mujhe khush kare.", Rihaan pagal pan me sacchai ka jeher ugal raha tha jo Nirbhay se saha nahi gaya.
Usne gusse me Rihaan ko 3 4 chaante lagaye.
"Mai kitna paagal tha tumhare jaise insaan se itna pyaar kiya... Apne parents ko chhoda... Tumhari har baat maani... Har julm sahe", wo rote rote bol raha tha.
Uske thappad ne Rihaan k ego ko thesh paguchayi thi. Wo use maarne k liye aage badha Tabhi Shashank beech me aa gaya.
"Khabardaar jo Nirbhay ko chhua bhi to", Shashank dahada.
"Tu... Tum mere dost ho kar uska side le rahe ho.. Aree wo to hai hi mera keep... Pehle mujhe khush karta tha ab tumhe bhi kar diya... Par tum to mere best friend ho na", psychoness me Rihaan aanap shnaap bole jaa raha tha.
"Nirbhay ki insult hota dekh Shashank se bardast nahi hua or usne Rihaan ko bahut mara. Nirbhay ne bhi use nahi roka...
Jab Shashank Rihaan ko sabak sikha raha tha to uski najare sirf Shashank par hi tiki huyi thi... Aaj use Rihaan ki jara bhi parwaah na thi.
Shashank jab tak thaka nahi tab tak usne Rihaan ko chhoda nahi.
Nirbhay to butt bana hua tha... Shashank ne Nirbhay ka sara samaan pack kiya or use apne saath lekar us narak se nikal gaya...
Dogle Rihaan ko society me apni ijjat jyada pyari thi isliye usme un dono ko rokne ki himmat bhi nahi huyi....
2 Saal baad....
"Aree sunte ho... Aaj Nirbhay ka janam din hai party me koi kami nahi rehni chahiye.", Nirbhay ki maa ne uske pita se kaha.
"bilkul nahi rahegi... Or rahegi bhi kyu aaj ki party ka saara arrangement Shashank bete ne jo kiya hai", uske pita bole...
Shaam ko grand party me sab mojood the,
Shashank ki family or Nirbhay ki family bhi.
Nirbhay or Shashank party me ek saath entry lete hai. Aaj Nirbhay kisi sejhjaade se kam nahi lag raha tha. Aaj uska chehra murjhaya hua nahi khila hua tha.
Dono sabka aashirvaad lete hai.
"Khush raho... Beta", sabne Nirbhay ko blessings di
"Nirbhay.! Mujhe ek baat aaj tak nahi samjh aayi agar tumne apne liye Shashank jaisa sanskaari ladka hi chuna tha to bina bataye ghar se kyu bhaage? ", Nirbhay k pita ne us se pucha.
Ye sunkar Nirbhay or Shashank ek dusare ki shakal hi dekhne lage. Kyuki unke paas iska koi jawab nahi tha.
"Hum Tumhare dushman to hai nahi jo apne bete ki zindagi or khushiyo se khilwaad kare ya us par dawab daale.",dono unki baat chup chaap sun rahe the.
Lihaja unhone in 2 saalo me Rihaan ka Jikar apne gahr m kisi se nahi kiya tha... Or sabko yahi lagta tha k us raat Nirbhay Rihaan k saath nahi balki Shashank k saath bhaga tha.
Shashank ne Nirbhay ko dekh k aankh maari or Nirbhay use dekh hus diya.
Dono saath me cake b'day cake cut kiya.
Nirbhay ne jise insaan samjh kar ishq kiya tha wo to raakshash nikla ek aisa raakshash jisne Nirbhay jaise farishte ki kabhi kadar hi nahi ki.
Or Shashank jaise ek anokhe farishte ne aa kar uski zindagi Sawaar di.
Jaha Nirbhay k liye Shashank ka pyaar Mohabbat-e-farishte ka prateek tha Wahi Rihaan ka ishq Raakshash-E-Ishq tha.
सिक्के के दो पहलू जिस तरह,
प्यार के दो पहलू उस तरह,
दोनों पहलूओं को किया जब ऐसे mix,
सच्चाई आ गयी सामने,
किसका प्यार है "राक्षस-ए-इश्क"।।

........... THE END.............
