🌙 Tamanna aur Rahasya Prem

Tamanna jaise hi us jaadui nagar mein aage badhi, usne ek ujale ke veer ko dekha. Uska naam tha Aaryan – ek rakshak jo wahan ke logon ko badi shiddat se sambhalta tha. Uski aankhon mein gehra samundar tha, aur uski muskaan mein ek ajeeb si shanti.

Aaryan ne Tamanna ka haath pakad kar kaha:

“Tum yahaan aayi ho… iska matlab tumhi woh ho jo is nagari ko bachaa sakti ho. Lekin yaad rakho, tumhe apne dil ki ek pariksha bhi deni hogi.”

Tamanna ke dil mein ajeeb si garmi thi, jaise usne apne sapnon ka insaan dhoond liya ho. Dono ek saath nagar ki safar par nikle – chamakte hue pedon ke beech se, gehre jharno ke paas se, aur khilte hue phoolon ke raaston se.

Jitna waqt Tamanna uske saath bitaati gayi, utna hi uska dil Aaryan ke liye dhadakne laga. Aaryan bhi Tamanna ki masoomiyat aur himmat se khinchne laga. Lekin dono jaante the ki nagri mein prem ki anumati nahi thi – kyunki ek rakshak apna dil kisi ko nahi de sakta.

Ek din, nagri ke devtaon ne Tamanna se kaha:

“Tumhari sabse badi pariksha ye hai… kya tum apna prem kurbaan karke hamari raksha karogi, ya apne dil ki sunogi?”

Tamanna ne Aaryan ki taraf dekha – uski aankhon mein prem bhi tha aur dard bhi.

Aaryan ne halka sa muskaan dete hue kaha:

“Tum jo bhi chuno, main tumhare saath hoon.”
