Zara si chai ki pyaali uthate hi, meri nigaahen un par atak gayi. Uski muskurahat, jaise ki koi chamakta sitara, mere dil ko chhoo gayi. Usne mujhe dekha aur muskuraya, jaise ki wo meri ankhon mein kuch khoj raha ho. Main ne bhi muskurakar uska salaam kiya aur wahan se ek adhoora pan mehsoos kiya.
Wohi pal tha jab meri zindagi ka rang badal gaya. Uske saath kiye gaye har pal ne mujhe ek nayi duniya ka ehsaas dilaya. Uska naam Rohan tha. Main nahi keh sakti ke kab se, par uske saath waqt bitane ka mann ho gaya tha. Shayad ek ajnabi se dil ki awaaz sunai dena hi pyaar ka pehla asool hai.
Uski awaaz, jaise ki koi meethi muskurahat, mere kaanon mein ghul gayi. Har baat par wo mera dil behlaya. Ek din, hum dono ne ek dusre se apni dil ki baat kahi. Uski aankhon mein dekha maine apna aaina, aur mujhe mehsoos hua ke wo bhi wahi soch raha hai jo main.
Har subah, uski yaadon mein dooba rehta tha. Uski muskurahat, uski baaton ka jadoo, sab kuch mere dil ko chhoo gaya tha. Har pal, har lamha, mere dil mein ek pyaas thi, ek khwaab tha, uske saath apni zindagi bitane ka.
Phir ek din, ek chai ki dukaan mein, baarish ki boonden girti hui hum dono ko ek saath paa gayi. Usne apne chhata ko mere upar taang diya aur hum dono ne baarish mein chai pi. Uske saath baarish mein bheeg kar, ek anokha ehsaas tha. Har boond ne humare pyaar ko aur gehra banaya.
Din guzarte gaye aur humara pyaar aur bhi gehra hota gaya. Ek din, usne mujhse kaha, “Tum mere liye khaas ho, jaise ki koi alag duniya ka hissa.” Uski baaton mein uska pyaar mehsoos hota tha. Main ne bhi usse kaha, “Tum mere liye sab kuch ho, meri duniya, meri zindagi.”
Ek shaam, hum dono ne saath mein ghar pe khana banaya. Usne mujhe sikhaya kaise ek pyaara sa chicken curry banate hain. Uski haath ki khushboo, uska saath, sab kuch mere liye khaas tha. Hum dono ne mil kar ek mithaas daali us curry mein, jaise humne apne rishte mein daali thi.
Us din ke baad, har roz, hum ek doosre ke saath apna waqt bitane lage. Har subah uske saath chai peena, har raat uske saath sitaron ko ginna, sab kuch mere liye ek anmol anubhav ban gaya.
Phir ek din, humne faisla kiya ke hum ek doosre ke saath apna poora jeevan bitana chahte hain. Usne mujhse kaha, “Tum meri zindagi ho, aur main tumhara.” Aur maine bhi usse kaha, “Tum mere liye sab kuch ho, aur main hamesha tumhara rahunga.”
Lekin phir ek din, ek chhoti si baat par hum dono ke beech ek chhoti si ladai ho gayi. Main gusse mein tha aur wo bhi. Har shabd ek doosre ko chot pahuncha raha tha. Shayad hum dono apne ego ke shikaar ho gaye the.
Woh din tha jab humare beech dooriyan badh gayi. Hum dono ke beech ki baatein kam ho gayi, muskurahat kam ho gayi, aur pyaar mein kami mahsoos hone lagi. Shayad humne apne pyaar ko ek chhoti si baat par khona chaha.
Par phir bhi, mere dil mein ek aas thi, ek ummeed thi. Main ne apne aap ko samjhaaya ke pyaar mein ladaiyan hoti hain, par unhein suljhana bhi zaroori hota hai. Main ne usse phone kiya aur maafi maangi. Usne bhi wahi kiya. Us din se humne ek doosre ko samajhne ka aur pyaar karne ka naya andaz sikha.
Aaj, hum ek doosre ke saath hain, apni zindagi ke har pal ko ek doosre ke saath baant kar. Uski muskurahat ab bhi meri duniya ko roshan karti hai. Uski baatein, uska saath, sab kuch mere liye khaas hai. Yeh hai hamari kahani, ek pyaar bhara safar, jismein har pal naya rang lekar aaya. Aur aaj bhi, uske saath, main mehsoos karta hoon, ke humara pyaar jaise spicy masala hai, jo hamare jeevan ko ek nayi zindagi aur rang de raha hai.
