ishq ka rang (ROMAN URDU/HINDI)

chapter 3

Sayah badalo ne ab tak purei aasman ko Apne sehar mei Liye hue tha lekin ab woh badal din ka neele aasman ki jagah Raat ka sayah aasman par the. Jo beyhad pur-kashish lag rahe the. Chand badalo ka pichei chupa jaghmaga raha tha.
Na-janei Kitne log is waqt aasman pe mojud Chand se batei krte the, aur Chand khamoshi se sabke diloo ki batei sun leta tha. Aur kuch log bas khamoshi se Chand ko dekhte rehte the jese unke pass Kuch kehne ka Liye alfaz hi nah ho Lekin unki aankhein sab Keh diya karti thi.
Aesaa hi kuch haal amairah Siddiqui or Zain Ahmed ka bhi tha.
Woh dono hi es lamhe ek dusre se bilkul anjan Chand ko tak Rahe the.
Dono hi apni apni jango se lar Rahe the.
Woh dono chehra oper kiye aasman ko khali khali nazroo se dekh Rahe the. Unki aankho ka samne sayah aasman par ek tasvir unbhri thi.

Past

Yeh tasvir mei ek bhot barii amarat thi Jo dekhne mei koi university lagti thi. Har taraf logo ka hujum tha. Aese mei sunherii aankho wala larka es hujum se kisi se barely mei puch tach karta dikhai deta. Woh Kisi larki ka hulya btata or puchta Kya yeh apko Nazar Aayi? Lekin samne se woh jawab nhi milta Jo woh Sunna Chahta tha... Woh ab puri building mei idhar se udhar bhagta dikhai deta, barii bariii sarey kamrey ke darwaze kholta andar jaata Charo etraf mei Nazar ghumata lekin usey Kuch nah milta.
Woh ab ruk jata... Uska tanafus phula hua tha. Usne apne hatho ka piyala banaya aur chehre pr pheira. Woh khud nhi Janta tha ka woh kyu itna bechain horha hai usko toh bs itna pata tha ka woh jisei dhundh raha hai agr woh usko nhi mili phir? ....
Woh chehra jhatakta wapis uski talash mei lag gaya... Assembly hall, library, gym, studio, cafe, garz ka campus ka har koona dekh Liya tha lekin woh usko Kahi nhi Mili.
Woh na-janei kitni hi dair se ek chehre ki talash mei tha. Woh lamhe Bhar ko rukha or lambi lambi saansei Lene Laga ka pichei se usey ek larki awaz sunai di lekin woh larki woh nhi thi jiski usko talash thi
"Kya tum usko dhund rahe ho?" Woh ab uske samne aa khari hui

"Kya tum janti ho woh kahan hai?" Phulii saanso ka Sath pucha gaya.

"Mere ilawa aur koi hai yahan jisei pata hoga ka woh kahan hai?" Kamal itminan se kaha gaya

"Kahan hai woh?" Pucha gaya

"Mujhe nhi pata" kandhe uchka kar kaha or agei barh gayi, wah kya andaz tha. Sunheri aankho wale ko is larki ki yehi adad beyhad buri lagti thi. Usne zabt se apni aankhein minchii phir kholi or jatii hui larki ko dekha
"Tumhe kya chahiye, Leyla" chilla kar kaha gaya.
Leyla jo jaa rahi thi woh iski awaz sun kar lamhe ko ruki phir palat kar samne khare larke ko dekha. Lamba kad, kasrati jisam, sunheri aankhein, halke bhurei rang Baal Jo mathe pe bikhre the, phula tanafus, woh khubsurat larka es waqt beyhad parishan lag raha tha.
Leyla ne apne qadam wapis uski janib barhai or uske aein samne aa ruki....

Sunheri aankho wala is waqt ek aesi jagah khara tha jo Kisi kahiniyo sa lagta tha. Usey lamhe Bhar ko yakin nhi hua ka woh such mei kisi aesi jagah mojud hai ya koi khuwab dekh raha hai. Har taraf haryali thi, har rang ka phool bhi the, phir ek jheel aati thi jisme Pani ka chashma bhi beh rha tha or jheel ka par darakhtei bbi lagei the. Wahan har rang ki titliya bhi urhti nazar aarhi thi. Woh manzar aesa tha ka lafzoo mei bayan krna na-mumkin sa tha. Sunheri aankho wala larka thora aur aagei barha toh jheel ka kinare usey ek larki dikhai di. Lambe bhure Baal khulei kamar tak aa the the. Ek hath mei qalam aur dusre mei kitab pakre kuch parh rahi thi toh kuch likh bhi rahi thi. Usne apne Pao pani mei dalei hue the. Sunheri aankho mei sukun ki lehar dorii. Usko woh chehra mil chuka tha jiski usko talash thi.
Woh larki ne kisi ki mojudgi mehsoos kar ka palati. Uski bhuri aankho se sunheri aankhein takrai. Aur bhuri aankhein aglei hi lamhe jhuk gayi jabke sunheri aankhein muskurane lag gayi.
Woh larka bhi apne qadam barhata uske pass barabar mei jaa beitha. Apne jeans ka paiche thore oper krta Pao pani mei dal dia.
Bhuri aankho wali ne apni kitab bandh krdi or Apne barabar mei beithe larke ko dekha Jo samne dekhta hua usey nagawari se keh raha tha "Mei Tumhe kabse dhund raha hun or tum yahan itne mazey se beithi ho"
"Tum mujhe kyu dhund Rahe the?" Bhuri aankho ne kuch na-samjhi se usse pucha jabke sunheri aankhein lamhe ko khamosh hua "Kya nhi dhund sakta mei tumhe?" Dheeme lehje mei sar jhukai kaha
"Dhund sakte ho Lekin koi khas wajah toh Hogi nah" usne kaha
"Nhi koi khas wajah nhi bas yunhi" kanshe uchka kar kaha gaya.
"Acha phir yeh batao ka kese dhonda tumne mujhe" bhuri aankhein ko tajasus tha
