Whispers At Midnight

1. The First meet

To ek sham maine apna bag uthaya aur mai ghar ko chal di. Office ke gate se niklne ko hi thi ki sardar ji samne aa khade hue. Are wohi lambe se heavy chest and hot biceps uspr gulabi pagg kya jach rhi thi, are wo mere TL the aur mai, mai to kya hi btau har baar unse dur bhagne ki koshish krti hui pass jaati bhi to kese darr sa lgta tha kya pta mai unhe hi dekhti reh jaau to kaam kon krega aur manager se daat kon khayega.

Kher aaj wo khud humara rasta roke khade hue the maine kaha, "Sir aaj ka sara kaam to ho gya h mai kuch bhul gai kya" wo muskraye aur dheere se meri ore aate hue bole "May I drop u home Miss" unka iss tarah kareeb aake pucha wo ek sawaal mere dil me ghar kar gya maano wo meri zindagi ka ek haseen lamha ban gya, bol to paai nhi kuch pr muskarake ha me sir hila diya aur unke peeche peeche daud lga liya.
Isse pehle mai kuch keh paati unhone suv ka front door open kr mujhe baithne ko puch liya krti mai bhi kya jo unhone kaha bs maine wo kr liya. Fir safar shuru hua dil ki dhadkne aur tez hui badhte badhte itni badh gai ki ab to darr lag gya ki kahi wo sunn na le humse kuch puch na le. Unhone apna paseendeda gana baja diya- "Dekha tainu pehlibpehli baar ve " haaye ye soft music te unka chehra wo raat to bhul nhi skti jisme mai aur wo aur bs ek gehra ahsas to music ke roop me humare saath tha.

Pehle to dimag sa rukk gya tha ab dhadkane bhi thamti ja rhi thi. Dekhte dekhte isi chupi me mera ghar aa gya, unhone badi utsukta se pucha "Madam if you don't mind so can we have a walk together just around your house?" Sardarji itne pyare the i unhone akele mere saath ghar ke andar baithne ki sochi bhi nhi time spend krne ke liye walk ka bahana de diya. Chalo ek paymane pr to wo khare uthre ladkiyo ki taraf unka rawaiya waisa to nhi nikla jesa aksar hum ladkiyan mehsoos krti hoti h.
Mera dil mare ja rha tha unse baatein krne ke liye wo baatein jo shayad mera dimag shando me bayan nhi kr pa rha tha kuch nhi to maine unhe ha hi bol diya. Gaadi ghar ke bahar park ki aur hum andheri sadko me chle walk krne 7-8 bje ka sardiyon ka mahol bada khubsurat sa hota h kuch thand si hawao me aur thoda shehr ka shor hota h.

Saath saath chalte chlte maine achanak unhe chupke se meri aur najre ghumake niharte hue dekha. Kuch der baad mujhse raha nhi gya tab maine unse dheere se puch hi liya "Aap kya dekh rhe h?" Wo kuch nhi bole pr thoda sa muskra diye 2-3 sec baad hi badi himmat krke unhone dheere se mera haath  apne haath me tham liya ab to maano 440 watt ka jhatka lagg chuka tha. Mere dil aur dimag ne to maano mera saath hi chhodd diya tha. Ab mai sochti smjhti bhi to kya unhone mera haath jo tham liya tha. Uske baad to mai saatve asman pr ab asmaan me rehne walo ko bhala zameen dikhti h kya bhala to uss nashe me mai ja takrai ek pathar se mai aage ko girne hi waali thi.
