Kuch aur baat hone se pehle uski ek dost aayi aur usse
bulayi aur woh chali gayi.
Main khana khatam karke ja ke tanu ke sath thoda baat
kar raha tha. Tabhi time dekha to 9.45pm ho raha tha. Mujhe
raat ko hi wapas Kolkata lautna tha.
Phir main tanu ko bye bolkar hall me aakar apna bag lekar
bahar chala aaya, bahar nikal ke karib 2-4 feet gaya tha, tab
piche se ek awaz aaya, “Aditya”.
Main achanak se ruk gaya aur piche mud ke dekha to
Swati khadi thi.
Main uske paas gaya. Woh boli, ‘wapas ja rehe ho ?’
Maine kaha, ‘Haan’
‘aur kaise ho ?’
‘haan thik thak, aur tum ?’.
‘han achi hun’
Phir woh achanak se bol padi, ‘aur Sonali kaisi hai ?’
Uski naam sunke Jaise mere dil ke dhadkane tez ho gayi,
jaise achanak se koi shock sa laga ho, mera pura body jaise us
pal mein kampne laga. Uss ek pal ki khamoshi mein nazane
kitne sawal the.
