"Ammi!"
Woh tezi se sirion se utarti hui niche lounge me bhaag ti hui ayi thi. Wahan bethi Mahnoor apni bari beti ke us bachpane per bas khamoshi se use nazarandaaz kar rahi thi.
"I know I know tum already late ho aur tumhe breakfast nahi chahiye."
Mahnoor ne apni coffee ka ek ghunt lete hue bohat hi araam se kaha tha.
"Aap mera mazaaq ura rahi hen?"
Usne ghoora tha.
"Tum to aise pooch rahi ho jese pehli dafa ura rahi hun."
Rayah bhaag kar unke kareeb ayi aur unke saath lipat gai. Unho ne use side pe karne ki koshish ki.
"Tumhara breakfast pack kar diya he le jao! Meri coffee gir jae gi door hato Rayah aur ab tumhe late nahi ho rahi?"
"Ohh han!"
Usne ghari ko dekha aur wahan se bhaagi thi. Lekin darwaze se nikalte nikalte ruki thi.
"Wese aap ki laadli kahan he?"
"Hafte ki subha mahrani sahiba kahan jaa sakti hen?"
Unhone uske sawaal ke jawaab me phir sawaal kiya tha. Rayah ne apni ankhe ghumai thi.

"Raimaaaa left!!"
Apni teammate ki cheekh pe usne bayen taraf dekha phir foran ball ke pair se maharat se thora right phir zor se left me kar ke aage bar gayi aur phir seedha shoot kiya jo ke net ke andar chala gaya aur pure court me cheekhe uthi thi.
Uski sari teammates khushi se uske kareeb aa kar uske gale lagi thi. Aur woh bhi uski khishi ke saath unke saath lagi muskura rahi thi.
"Raimaa kamaal kar diya!"
Emily ne bench per jaate hue kaha tha.
"Team play tha..!"
Usne kaha tha.
"Yeah yeah! Ab bas karo tum! Sare goal to tumne kiye the takreebn!"
"Agar baaki sab mujhtak ball ponchate naa to main goal kese karti?"
Usne phir kaha tha. Aur woh apne hisaab se sahi baat kar rahi thi. Uske baaki teammates bhi sach me kabil the. Emily ne usse aur behes karna fazool samjha tha.
"Well leave it. Aaj raat party he club me aao gi?"
Usne Raima se pucha. Raima paani peete peete ruki aursar jhatak ke boli.
"Tumhe pata hai main nahi jaati parties pe."
Usne jawaab diya phir apne towel se paseena saaf karne lagi.
"Kyun yar sab teammates hon ge"
"I know but I don't drink Emily na comfortable hun main parties wagaira pe jaane se"
"Chalo theek hai magar himmat he tumhari!"
Raima ab puri tarah uski taraf muri thi.
