Yeh baat hai sardi ki ek shaam ki. kadake ki thand thi. Main Delhi se Agra jaa rahaa thaa. Train ki sleeper class main reserved seat par baitha ek kitab main khoya thaa. Saath waali seat par baitha 7 saal ka bachcha apne papa ki god main baith kar kuchh ajeeb ajeeb sawal poochh rahaa tha. "Papa, yeh train kitni tez chalti hai?", "Kya yeh hamare bike se bhi tez chalti hai?" "Yeh sab log Agra jaa rahe hain?" .....
Kuchh awazo ne mera dhyan apni aur kheecha. TT ticket check karne aaya thaa aur darwaje par baithe 1 admi aur uske chote se bachhe par chilla rahaa tha. "Ticket kyo nahi lete?" "Train free main nahi chalti!!" "Bhagwan ne permanent ticket de kar bheja hai, jab bhi jee kare train main chad jao." Yeh sab kehte kehte TT hamari aur bada. Meri nazar us garib aadmi par gayi. Ek fata purana kambal kisi tarah se lapet kar sardi se bachne ki koshish kar rahaa thaa. bache ka badan kuchh gande kapdo se dhakaa thaa. TT ki awaaz se mera dhyaan bataa. Maine jeb se ticket nikaal kar TT ko thamaa di.
Tabhi ek chai waala waha ayaa. Sardi ke mausam main garam garam chai ka mazaa hi kuchh aur hota hai. Sab us se chai le rahe the. Maine bhi 1 chai li aur TT ko bola
"Aayiye sahab, aap bhi chai pee lijiye. Tickets baad main check kar lijiyega"
TT sahab bhi hamare saath baith gaye aur chuski le kar peene lage. Itne main us 7 saale ke bachhe ne chai waale se poochha:
"Uncle, 1 chai kitne ki hai?"
- "4 rupaye ki"
- "aur 2 chai?"
- "8 rupaye ki"
Bachhe ne apni nanhi si muthi kholi aur usme rakhe 1 coin ko dhyaan se dekha. Us coin par 5 likha thaa. Usne kuchh socha par uske chehre par confusion saaf nazar aa rahi thi. Woh shayad hisaab nahi lagaa paa rhaa thaa ki 5/- main kitni chai aayegi. Kuchh der sochne ke baad akhir kar woh chai waale se bola:
"Achha, 5 rupees ki chai de do"
Sab log us masoom ki taraf dekh rahe the. Bachhe ke mata-pitah bhi nahi samajh paa rahe the ki woh chai kyo le rahaa hai. Bachhe ki maa ne bachhe ko rokne ki koshish ki par uske pitah ne ishare se use rok diya. Who dekhna chahte the ki bachha aakhir kar kya raha hai. Chai waale ne 1 chai aur 1 rupya bachhe ke haath main thamaa diye aur baaki logo ko chai dene laga. Bacha chai ka cup le kar darwaje ki taraf chalne laga. Woh dheere dheere chalte huye us garib aadmi ke paas pahucha aur usko chai de di. Thoda sharmata huya bhag kar seedha apne papa ki god main aa kar baith gayaa. Uske chehre par muskurahat thi aur kuchh achha karne ka garv bhi. Poori tarah se khamoshi chha gayi. Koi kisi se nazar nahi mila paa rahaa tha. Maine tirchhi nazar se bachhe ki taraf dekha. Uski payari si muskurahat maano hum sab ki hasi udaa rahi thi.
