ADHURE SAPNE

Chapter 1: Woh anderi Raat

 Woh anderi Raat Lucknow ki ek thandi raat thi. February ka mahina, par hawa aise jaise mid December ki , hawa me abhi bhi sardi ka sannata chhaya hua tha. Naman Lucknow me ek chote se hostel ke kamre me baitha tha, table pe physics ki kitab khuli hui, lekin aankhein band. JEE ki taiyaari ne uski neend udha hi li thi. Har raat ek jaise sapne aate tha – adhure sapne. KY HAI YE SAPNA ?....
SAPNA 
Sapne mein woh dekhta tha ek ladki ko , Lambe baal, safed dress, hansi aise ki dil chhu jaaye….. "Naman: , mere sapne poore kar de," ladki bolti usase phle hi . Par har baar sapna adhura rah jaata. Ladki ka chehra gayab hone lagta , aur awaaz badal si jaati – "Tune mujhe chhoda... adhure sapne!" Naman ki aankhein khuli. Chahra pura pasine se bhiga hua gala sukh sa gya tha .
RAAT KE 1.30 AM 
Ghadi dikha rahi thi 1:30 AM. Usi samaye mobile vibrate hua Naman ki to saas atak si gai .Jab mobile dekha to dekhte hi rah gya ek message tha. Unknown number se: Msg padhte hi manu Naman ke niche se jamin gayab si ho gai …….
MESSAGE 
Naman ne dubara padha msg ,"Sapne poore karne ka time aa gaya. Kal college aana."Dil dhadka. Kaun? Dil se ek hi awaz kon aur kyu ?. College? Woh to kal CBSE Board ka practical hai , Lucknow University ke purane campus mein. Naman ne message delete krne ko socha pr hua nhi . Naman : Sapna hai "Pagalpan hai," bola khud se. Par aakhe khuli hui thi . Dubara nind na aai ,Subah hui.
COLLEGE 
 College pahuncha to vha dekh kr manu uski sase tham si gai sab normal tha . Friends se baat ki – sab normal. Practical hall mein enter kiya. Examiner ne paper diya. Question 1: Dekh ke hi usko raat ka sapna yaad aa gya . "Sapno ka physics – wave function jaise, incomplete orbits." Naman has pada. Khud ko dilasa diya Coincidence hai .Par tabhi light jalne aur band hone lagi . Hall ke piche side mein ek ladki khadi thi. Wohi safed dress. Baal lambe. Naman ka pen gir gaya. Ladki muskurayi, par chehra... uska chehra Naman jaisa tha? Mano jaise ki mirror me khud ko dekh rha ho .Practical khatam hua, Bahar nikla to dost Rohan se kaha, "Yaar, tu theek hai? Tune us ladki ko dekha hall mein?""Kya ladki?"
Naman: ye sun ke uska gala sukh sa gya hawa ka thanda jhokha uske chahre pe padha aur sahmi avaj me bola."Rohan, koi nahi thi wahan. Tu sapne dekh raha hai kya?" Ab Naman ko smjh nhi aaya ky hua ,Shaam ko ghar lauta. Mobile vibrate hua. Wahi number: vhi line "Adhure sapne poore karne hain. To Rohan ko mat bata . Kal 10 PM, purani Lucknow ki haveli ke paas mil ."Naman ko kuch smjh nhi aaya uske haath kaap raha tha. Aur dil ki dhadkan jaise pure kamre me gunj rhi ho usne pani piya aur phir se message ko padha . Haveli? Lucknow ke Hazratganj ke paas woh bhootiya haveli, jahan log kehte hain ek ladki ki atma bhatakti hai – sapno mein aati hai, adhure sapno wali…. Naman ko kuch smjh hi nhi aaya ki ky kre socha Rohan ko sab bata du .Tab tak phir se phone vibrate hua . Rohan ko btya to dost kho doge .
HAVELI
Raat ke 10 bajhe haveli ke gate pe khada tha Naman . Andhera ghara ,thandi hawa jaise uska hi naam bula rhi ho Naman ko dar to lag rha tha par janana bhi tha. Torch on kiya. Andar se ek dhiri awaaz aayi – hansi. Ladki ki."Naman ... aa gaya?"Woh nikli. Vhi Safed dress. Par chehra... Rohan ka?
Sapna tha ya sach?
