TITLI KI RAAZ

 Ek chhota sa gaon tha jahan sab log ek doosre ko jaante the. Gaon ke beech mein ek chhota sa jungle tha jahan log kabhi-kabhi ghoomne jaate the. Ek din, ek baccha, Ravi, wahan jaane ka soch raha tha. Usne socha ki woh kuch naya dekhe aur shayad kuch anokha bhi pata chale.

Ravi ne apne dost, Shyam, ko bhi saath le jaane ke liye kaha. Shyam initially mana kar raha tha, lekin phir usne Ravi ke saath chalne ka faisla kiya. Dono bachche chalte chalte jungle mein pahunch gaye.

Jungle mein ghumte waqt, unhone dekha ki kuch titliyan ek khandahar ke paas uda rahi hain. Dono bachchon ne un titliyon ko dekhte hue unke peeche chalna shuru kiya. Jab woh khandahar ke paas pahunchte hain, toh unhe ek purani haveli nazar aayi.

Haveli bohot purani thi, aur lag raha tha ki kai saalon se koi nahi aaya. Ravi aur Shyam ke dil mein ek ajeeb sa dar sa ghar gaya, lekin unhone himmat jutaayi aur haveli ke andar ghus gaye.

Andar jaate hi, unhe ek aurat nazar aayi, jiski umar lagbhag 80 saal ki hogi. Usne bachchon ko dekha aur unse kaha, "Tum log yahan kaise aaye?"

Ravi ne himmat jutaayi aur kaha, "Aunty, hum yahan sirf ghoomne aaye hain. Kya aap yahan akeli rehti hain?"

Aurat muskurayi aur kaha, "Haan, main yahan akeli rehti hoon. Tum dono ko yahan akele dekh kar mujhe achha laga."

Ravi aur Shyam ne mahsus kiya ki kuch ajeeb hai, lekin woh aurat unhe koi khatra nahi lag rahi thi. Unhone us aurat se baatein karni shuru ki.

Aurat ne unhe haveli ke alag-alag hisson ka safar karwaya aur unhe kuch purani kahaniyan sunayi. Ek waqt aisa aaya jab andhere ka mahaul aur un kahaniyon ka asar dono bachchon par hone laga.

Phir, ek din, jab Ravi aur Shyam jungle mein ghoom rahe the, unhone ek gufa dekhi. Woh gufa andheri thi, lekin kuch chamak rahi thi. Dono ne us gufa mein dakhil hone ka faisla kiya.

Gufa ke andar jaate hi, unhe kuch chizein mili, jaise ek purani kitaab aur kuch ajeeb se gehne. Gehnon mein ek sundar titli ka joda bhi tha. Dono bachchon ne woh sab samet kar haveli mein le jaane ka faisla kiya.

Jab woh haveli pahunchte hain, toh dekhte hain ki woh aurat muskurati hui unka intezaar kar rahi hai. Ravi ne use woh sab dikhaya jo unhone gufa mein paaya tha.

Aurat ka chehra chamak utha, lekin phir usne gusse se kaha, "Yeh tum kya kar rahe ho? Tumhe yeh sab yahan nahi le jaana chahiye tha!"

Ravi aur Shyam confuse ho gaye. Unhone poocha, "Par kyun, aunty? Yeh sab toh humein jungle mein mila tha."

Aurat ne unhe kaha, "Yeh sab cheezein ek purani dushmani ki kahani hain. Aur yeh titli ka joda, yeh mere parivaar ka ek anmol gehna hai. Tumhe yeh sab wapas le jaana chahiye, warna bade khatre mein pad sakte ho."

Ravi aur Shyam ko samajh aayi aur unhone woh sab samet kar gufa mein wapas rakh diya. Aurat ne unhe ashirwaad diya aur kaha, "Tum dono bahut himmatwale aur acche bacche ho. Kabhi bhi himmat mat haarna aur hamesha sachai aur nek iraade ke saath chalo."

Ravi aur Shyam jungle se bahar nikle aur wapas apne gaon ki taraf chale gaye. Unke man mein woh haveli aur us aurat ki yaad hamesha bani rahegi. Unhone samjha ki duniya mein rahasyamayi aur dilchasp cheezein hain, lekin unhe hamesha saavdhaan rehna chahiye.
