रथ्य
रथ्या!... यानी वेश्याओं के मुहल्ले तक जाने वाली पतली सड़क। वसंती के घर तक जाने वाली पतली सड़क के लिए यही नाम दिया था विमलानन्द ने। यह तो तब की बात थी, जब उसे लगा कि इसी छोकरी के लिए वह क्षण भर पूर्व धरती-सी सहिष्णु पत्नी और अबोध पुत्रों की निरीह गर्दनों पर स्वयं छुरी रखने को तत्पर था... और इसी अहसास के साथ वह धूल भरी रथ्या को रौंदता हुआ तीर-सा निकल गया।
वह बेहद मासूम ग्राम बाला थी समय के चक्र ने जिसे नर्तकी बना दिया। बड़े वैभव से जीवन जीने लगी, पर उसके भीतर का खालीपन कभी नहीं भरा।
दो स्त्रियों के बीच फंसे अहसास जब सम्बन्धों और प्रेम की परिभाषा ही बादल देते हैं, तब किसी एक के हिस्से मे आती है व्याकुल वेदना और यह वसंती के हिस्से मे आई, क्योंकि उसके घर का रास्ता रथ्या से होकर जाता था।

Dude..!!! The protagonist had high expectations that he would see her the way she was back then. Vasanti had gone through tornadoes so it is obvious that she will change and the perspective to see life whereas Vimal hadn't gone through the sufferings as she had. And I'm disappointed with the way of Vimal judging her lifestyle. Afterall everyone get what they deserve, based on their choices and decisions.😉
I already had this old book in my family storeroom, eating dust. I just found it.
