Meri Mumbai ki vo pehli barish mujhe kabhi nahi bhoolegi...
9 June ki subha Khula aasmaan, chamakti dhoop, Metro train ka mumbai main doosra din aur Andheri main mera naya ghar. Ghar se metro ki aur walk karta hua main nikla... Raaste main sab cheezen dekhta jaa raha tha ke achaanak ek boond aake meri naak pe giri aur dekhte hi dekhte zoro ki baarish shuru ho gayi... Kisi ko nahi pata badal kab aur kahan se aagaye... Har koi kahin na kahin apna sir chipata fir raha tha... Aur main bhi ek atm ke bhaar baarish se bachne ke liye khada ho gaya... Main bar bar aasmaan ki aur dekh raha tha ke kab aasmaan thoda khule aur main metro ki taraf bhaagun. Itne main Atm ka darwaza khulta hai aur vahan se ek moti si aunty nikalti hai... Maine aunty ko dekh mann hi mann bhagwaan se bola company ke liye koi sundar si ladki hi bhej dete
Itne main aunty auto wale ko rukwati hai aur nikal padti hai, jaise hi aunty auto ke liye aage badhti hai main kya dekhta hun... ke left side se ek cute si ladki bhaagti hui meri hi tarha Atm ki chat ke neeche baarish se bachne ke liye aajati hai... Baarish itni tez ho rahi hoti hai ke vo almost poori bheeg chuki hoti hai... Vo apne baal khol ke apni chunni se unhe sukha rahi hoti hai... Main uski hi taraf dekhta rehe jaata hun... Aur vo dheere se sir upper kar ke smile karti hai, jaise complaint karte hue kehe rahi ho ke baarish ne toh mujhe poora hi bhiga diya... Main bhi uski smile dekh kar smile kar deta hun... Fir main bhaar aasmaan ki aur dekhta hun aur mann hi mann kehta hun ke, hey bhagwaan plz thodi der ke liye hi sahi ye baarish thodi aur tez kardo... Fir main uski taraf dekhte hue kehta hun- these mumbai rain are as beautiful as they are unpredictable.
Mere muh se ye baat nikalne ki der thi ke baarish ekdam se dheere ho gayi aur vo bheegi bheegi apni chunni se apna sir bachaate hue apne raaste nikal padi... Aur main bhi uske peche peeche nikal pada... Uska peecha karne nahi but metro station ki taraf...
Main uske peeche peeche aur vo mere aage aage... Metro station main bhi dono saath chadhe... Metro main dono aamne saamne khade the... Kabhi main uske dekh raha tha toh kabhi vo mere ko. Metro main aaj AC ka ventilation kuch zada hi tha toh usko thand lagne lagi aur mere ko bhi. Thodi der main Vo kaampne lagi aur meri taraf dekhte hue siraf honth hilate hue bola 'its cold'.. Maine bhi full enthusiasm main honth hilate hue kaha 'yaa...', vo fir hasne lagi...
Itne main dono ka station aagaya aur dono fir apne raaste par nikal pade...
Shaam ko main office se nikla toh ekdam se baarish shuru ho gayi.. Aur main fir kahin sir chipane bhaaga, mujhe subha ke vo haseen scene yaad aa gaya, aur chehre par ek dabbi si hassi aa gayi...
Baarish ruki toh main vahan se nikal pada. Office ke gate se pehle ek fish pond padta hai, main vahan aksar ruk jaaya karta hun, that place just gives me some peace of mind, itne me main ek pyaari si aawaz mujhe kehti hai.. Is bin mausam barsaat ne tumhe fir bhiga diya... Main peeche ghoom ke dekhta hun toh ye vahi ladki hoti hai jo mujhe subha mili thi...
Main pehle toh hassa fir uski baat ka jawab diya... Bheeg toh achhe se tum bhi gayi ho... Toh vo kehti hai- i just love mumbai rains... I cant help myself from getting drenched in it... Main hasste hue bolta hun ke ho toh tum poori filmi type ki but shakal se lagti nahii...
Vo zor zor se hassne lagi aur mere se poocha, office hours khatam?
Maine bola yaa heading home... Vo kehne lagi come on lets share auto to station... And hum nikal padte hai....
Auto main sabse pehle vo yahi bolti hai... Mere pyaar vyaar ke chakkar main mat pad jaana... Main bas aisi hi hun pagli si, jhalli si, aawara aur mann mauji... Maine kahan mere bare main aap itna kaise jaanti hai, ye sab toh meri qualities hai... Pehle toh vo mujhe 1 second ke liye dekhti hai fir zor se hass padti hai aur kehti hai flirt tum achha kar lete ho... Aage se main bolta hun 'tum bhi'
Dono hass padte hai... Fir metro main dono ek doosre ke bare main jaante hai, dosti karte hai aur fir se apne apne raaste chal padhte hai... Jaate jaate main ye zaroor kehta hun ke- have to meet you again for sure...
Vo bohot kush ho jaati hai aur kehti same here...
Bina ek doosre ka number liye, social site pe bina add kiye, bas kismat ke bharose ek doosre se wada kiye hum apne apne raaste chal padhe...
Agle din koi baarish nahi ho rahi thi, station jaane ke raaste pe meri nazar siraf use hi dhoond rahi thi... Platform pe bhi meri aankhe siraf usi ka intezaar kar rahi thi...
Ek train miss ki, doosri train bhi aa kar chali gayi par vo nahi aai... Maine bhi aasman ko dekhte hue kaha.. Kya yaar!
And office chala gaya... Saara din yun hi beet gaya... Agle 2 din bhi yahi hua, vo nahi mili... Mann thoda toh upset ho gaya tha, kyunki main andar hi andar use like karne laga tha...
Friday subha main ghar se station ki taraf walk kar raha tha ke itne main ek white scooty mere side main aake ruki aur helmate main se aawaz aai... Lift chahiye handsome...!!
Itna hi suna tha ke mere ko pata lag gaya ye koi aur nahi, vahi hai jise main itne dino se dhoond raha tha... She introduced me to her new scooty... Scooty ka toh pata nahi she was looking really beautiful... We shook hands and she gave me ride to office... She told how his father gave her the surprise gift and how lively she feels when she rides it everytime... Itni si baaton main hi we reached office, parked scooty and while leaving for my building she just gave me her number and said call me in evening will go together...
Mera dil baagh baagh ho gaya tha ke pehli baar koi ladki khud apna number de rahi hai and itni lively hai ke uske saath poori zindagi bhi bita do toh kam lage... Saara din main bas shaam hone ka intezaar karta raha... Ke kab shaam hogi aur kab hum dono dubbara scooty pe wapas jaayenge....
Office se ghar aur ghar se office ki vo journey mere liye din ka sabse important hota tha... Saare raaste vo mujhse kuch na kuch baaten karti rehti thi, hassti khil-khilati, muskurati rehti thi.. Mujhe toh uski har ada se pyaar ho gaya tha..
Ek saturday aise hi whatsapp pe baat karte hue main us se pooch liya which is your fav. Thing in/of mumbai or according to you which is the most beautiful and amazing thing in mumbai,,, Uska reply aaya... Wait
Maine kaha ok..
I was eager what is that she is going to show me... Then after 5 min she replied at 4 i will come to your place... I became really happy and suddenly realise ke she will be coming inside too... Bhaago.....!!!
Saara ghar saaf kiya...
Vo shaam 4 baje ghar aayi aur tv ke saamne baith kar boli you go and get ready... Maine poocha hum kahan jaa rahe hai toh usne bola just ho and get ready....
Main ready hoke aaya aur hum uski scooty pe baith ke nikal pade... Aaj vo bohot shaant thi, maine bhi kuch nahi poocha... Hum bas chalte gaye chalte gaye.. 1 hr baad hum marine point pohonch gaye...
It was time when sun was about start setting in the sea... We sat there together, today she was quite but was happy.. Happy like a small baby... Haaye dil hi aagaya us pe...
She was just gazing the setting sun... And suddenly she holds my hand, rested her head on my shoulder while continuously gazing the sun... And she uttered- isn't it beautiful... I smiled and kissed her head... Indeed the most beautiful thing in mumbai... There was sun set, silence and some blooming love in the hearts....
