Raat ka waqt tha, hawa thodi thandi thi aur aasman me chand aadha chhupa hua tha, bilkul uski zindagi ki tarah — adhura. Aarav apne kamre ki khidki ke paas khada bahar dekh raha tha. Uski aankhon me ek ajeeb si khamoshi thi, jaise bahut kuch kehna chahta ho par alfaaz hi na mil rahe ho. Teen saal pehle tak uski zindagi bilkul normal thi — college, doston ke saath masti, aur chhoti chhoti khushiyan. Lekin phir ek din sab kuch badal gaya, jab uski zindagi me Meera aayi. Meera — ek aisi ladki jiska naam sunte hi Aarav ke chehre par muskaan aa jaati thi. Uski aankhen itni gehri thi jaise samandar, aur uski baatein itni pyari ki waqt ka pata hi nahi chalta tha. Dono ki mulaqat ek library me hui thi, jahan Meera ek novel padh rahi thi aur Aarav galti se uske paas baith gaya tha. Pehli baar jab unki aankhen mili, tabhi kuch alag sa feel hua tha — jaise kismat ne unhe milane ka plan pehle se hi bana rakha ho.
Dheere dheere baatein badhne lagi, phir dosti hui aur phir pata hi nahi chala kab woh dosti pyaar me badal gayi. Har din ek nayi kahani jaisa lagta tha — canteen ki chai, college ke baad long walks, aur raat bhar phone par baatein. Aarav ko lagta tha ki usne apni zindagi ka sabse khoobsurat hissa paa liya hai. Meera bhi usse utna hi pyaar karti thi — ya kam se kam Aarav ko aisa hi lagta tha. Lekin zindagi hamesha perfect nahi hoti, aur kabhi kabhi jo hum sochte hain, sach usse bilkul alag hota hai.
Ek din Meera ne Aarav ko milne bulaya. Uski awaaz me ajeeb si ghabrahat thi. Aarav samajh nahi paaya, par woh turant usse milne chala gaya. Jab woh dono park me mile, Meera chup thi. Usne Aarav ki taraf dekha, par uski aankhon me woh pyaar nahi tha jo pehle hota tha. Aarav ka dil dhadakne laga. Usne poocha, "Kya hua Meera?" Meera ne dheere se kaha, "Aarav… mujhe tumse kuch kehna hai." Us pal waqt ruk sa gaya. Hawa bhi jaise tham gayi ho. Meera ne aankhen jhuka kar kaha, "Mujhe ghar walon ne shaadi ke liye force kiya hai… aur main mana nahi kar paayi."
Yeh sunte hi Aarav ke pairon tale zameen khisak gayi. Usne socha tha ki pyaar sab kuch jeet leta hai, lekin us din uska yakeen toot gaya. Usne Meera ko samjhane ki koshish ki, usse kaha ki woh lad sakte hain, sab kuch theek ho jayega. Lekin Meera ne sirf itna kaha, "Har kahani ka happy ending nahi hota Aarav…" Aur woh chali gayi.
Us din ke baad Aarav ki zindagi badal gayi. Woh har jagah Meera ko dhoondta, har awaaz me uski awaaz sunta. Usne khud ko samjhane ki bahut koshish ki, par dil nahi maana. Uski duniya jo kabhi rangon se bhari thi, ab bilkul berang ho chuki thi. Woh roz us park me jaata jahan woh dono milte the, jaise kisi chamatkar ka intezaar kar raha ho.
Mahine beet gaye, phir ek saal… Aarav ne dheere dheere apni zindagi ko sambhalna shuru kiya. Lekin Meera ki yaadein kabhi usse chhod kar nahi gayi. Ek din achanak usse ek unknown number se call aaya. Usne phone uthaya… aur saamne se awaaz aayi — "Aarav…"
Uska dil ek pal ke liye ruk gaya. Yeh awaaz woh kabhi nahi bhool sakta tha — Meera. Usne ghabra kar poocha, "Meera… tum?" Us taraf kuch pal ki khamoshi thi, phir Meera ne kaha, "Mujhe tumse milna hai… ek baar."
Aarav ke andar phir se umeed jag uthi. Usne bina soche haan kar diya. Agle din woh usi purane park me gaya. Uska dil zor zor se dhadak raha tha. Har second ek saal jaisa lag raha tha. Phir usne dekha — Meera saamne khadi thi… lekin woh pehle jaisi nahi lag rahi thi. Uski aankhon me ek dard tha, ek kahani thi jo shayad kabhi kisi ne nahi suni.
Meera ne Aarav ki taraf dekha aur halka sa muskuraayi, par us muskuraahat me khushi nahi thi. Usne kaha, "Aarav… maine tumhe kabhi bhulaya nahi…" Aarav ki aankhon me aansu aa gaye. Usne poocha, "Toh phir tum chali kyun gayi thi?"
Meera kuch bolne hi wali thi… ki achanak uske haath se ek kagaz zameen par gir gaya…
Suspense
Us kagaz par likha tha — "Mujhe sirf 6 mahine ki zindagi bachi hai…" 😢
Aarav ke haath kaanpne lage… aur usne dheere se Meera ki taraf dekha…
👉 Kya Meera sach me marne wali thi?
👉 Kya Aarav apne adhure pyaar ko poora kar paayega… ya yeh kahani hamesha ke liye adhuri reh jayegi? 💔
