"Goa Wala Plan"

 

"Goa Wala Plan"

(ek dosti, ek pagalpan aur ek yaadgar safar ki kahani)

Sab kuch ek garam dopahar ke chai session se shuru hua tha. Raghav ne chhoti si chai ki tapri par sabko bulaaya aur aankhon mein chamak ke saath bola, "Bhai log, Goa chalte hain. Life mein kuch adventure hona chahiye."

Sab pehle toh hans pade. Har baar ki tarah kisi ne bola, "Haan haan, plan toh har mahine banta hai, hota kab hai?"
Lekin iss baar Sunny ne bola, "Is baar serious hoon. Ho jayega bhai."

Tanya, jo hamesha sabse zyada doubtful hoti thi, surprisingly maan gayi. Meenu ne turant apna notepad nikaala aur bola, "Okay, toh budget, train ya flight, hotel, khana… sabka plan main banati hoon." Jatin ne kuch nahi bola, bas smile kiya — woh aise hi tha, silent but always ready.

Next do hafte planning mein nikal gaye. WhatsApp group ban gaya — naam tha "Goa Ya Kabhi Nahi". Har raat kisi na kisi ka message aata, kabhi hotel ke links, kabhi Goa ke reels, kabhi Meenu ki warning: “Koi bhi last moment pe cancel karega toh dosti khatam.”

Finally, wo din aa gaya. Sab airport pahuch gaye — khush, excited, thoda thoda nervous bhi. Lekin jaise hi Raghav boarding pass counter pe pahucha, uska chehra safed pad gaya. Usne dheere se bola, "Guys… maine tickets sochi thi... book nahi ki."

Sab pehle ek dusre ko dekhe… phir sab ek saath hansne lage. Us moment mein gussa tha, but mazaak usse zyada. Kya hi kar lete? Meenu ne ussi waqt phone nikala aur bola, "Train pakadte hain. Aaj hi nikalte hain. Goa toh jayenge."

Train ka safar ek alag hi adventure tha. Upper berth pe Sunny selfie le raha tha, Meenu khidki ke paas baithi apni budget list revise kar rahi thi, Tanya har station pe chai aur samosa try kar rahi thi, aur Jatin chup chap sab dekh raha tha, kabhi kabhi ek aadha joke bhi maar deta.

Teen din baad jab finally Goa pohonche, toh laga jaise kisi film mein aa gaye ho. Beach, hawa, log, sab kuch naya tha. Hotel ka kamra chhota tha, AC nahi chal raha tha, lekin sabne kaha: "Doesn't matter, yeh Goa hai bhai!"

Har din naye experiences — kabhi scooter chalayenge aur gir jaayenge, kabhi local market mein bargaining karte waqt kisi aunty se lad jaayenge, kabhi beach pe random logon ke saath cricket khel lenge. Raat ko sab beach pe baithke bonfire ke aas paas gappe marte, ya bas sky dekhte rehte.

Ek raat aise hi sab baithe the, hawa mein thoda nasha, doston mein pura madness. Raghav ne guitar uthaya (jo use bajana nahi aata tha), aur bola, "Life mein trip planned tha, par yeh toh unexpected hi best nikla."

Meenu ne sarcastically bola, "Haan, ticket book na karke tune toh adventure shuru kar hi diya tha."

Sab hass pade.

Tanya ne kaha, “Yeh moment yaad rahega zindagi bhar.”
Sunny bola, “Bhai… Goa ho gaya. Next — Manali?”

Jatin, jo poore trip mein sabse kam bola tha, finally bola, “But iss baar ticket pehle book kar lena…”

Aur sab ek baar phir… toot pade hansne mein.


Kahani ka end yahi nahi tha. Dosti ke safar mein end kabhi hota hi nahi. Har plan, chaahe fail ho, ya successful, yaadon mein best ban jaata hai — jab woh doston ke saath hota hai.

Dilli Wali Duniya S2

Part 2 (Final Part): Tanhai, Tooti Soch Aur Ek Nayi Shuruaat" — The End with Redemption, Clarity and Peace   Breakup ke baad ek lambe samay tak Aarav ne kisi se baat nahi ki. Phone switch off, coaching mein bas akele rehta. Notes, test series, answer writing — sab mein dob gaya. Pain ne usse discipline sikha diya. Har raat ek hi line sochta: "Zindagi mein har distraction temporary hota hai… par sapne permanent hote hain." 6 mahine baad… UPSC Mains clear. Room ke ek kone mein woh calendar latka tha jisme likha tha – “Final Interview – 5th March” Tanya ka contact delete kiya tha, par dil se nahi gaya tha. Interview se ek din pehle, gate pe ek car rukti hai. Window se Tanya utarti hai — classy as always, lekin aankhon mein guilt tha. “Tum mujhse bina sach jaane door ho gaye Aarav.” Aarav kuch nahi bola, sirf dekhta raha. Tanya aage boli, “Jo tumne dekha tha us din… woh ladka mera cousin tha, jo London se aaya tha surprise dene. Main jaanti hoon, maine tumhe clear nah...
