📖 My Life My Dream

✨ Chapter 1 – Sapno Ki Udaan

Subah ka waqt tha. Chhote se shehar ki tang galiyon mein suraj ki pehli roshni dheere-dheere phail rahi thi. Aiza apne kamre ki khidki ke paas khadi aasman ko dekh rahi thi. Uski aankhon mein neend kam aur sapne zyada the.

“Ek din main bhi is shehar se bahar jaungi… apni pehchaan banaungi,” usne dheere se khud se kaha.

Aiza ek middle-class family se thi. Abbu ki chhoti si dukaan thi jo mushkil se ghar ka kharcha chalati thi. Ammi silai karke thoda paisa kama leti thi. Ghar mein zimmedariyaan zyada thi, sahuliyat kam. Lekin Aiza ke sapne in sab se bade the.

Usse likhna pasand tha. Kahaniyaan, shayari, apne dil ki baatein — sab uski diary ke panne jaante the. Uska sapna tha ek din writer banne ka. Ek aisi writer jiske lafzon mein log apni zindagi dekh sakein.

Lekin ghar walon ke liye yeh sirf ek “shauk” tha.

“Beta, zindagi sirf sapno se nahi chalti,” Abbu aksar kehte.
“Ladkiyon ko zyada udaan nahi bharni chahiye,” rishtedaar taana marte.

Har baat Aiza ke dil ko chot deti, lekin uska hausla nahi tod paati.

💫 College Ka Pehla Din

Aaj uska college ka pehla din tha. Dil mein excitement bhi thi aur darr bhi. Naye log, nayi jagah… aur shayad nayi shuruat.

Classroom mein enter karte hi uski nazar ek ladke par padi jo last bench par baitha khidki se bahar dekh raha tha. Simple kapde, aankhon mein gehra sukoon… jaise woh duniya ko samajhne ki koshish kar raha ho.

Woh tha — Armaan.

Lecture ke baad jab Aiza apni notebook girane wali thi, tab kisi ne aage badhkar use sambhal liya.

“Careful,” usne halki si muskurahat ke saath kaha.

“Thank you,” Aiza ne sharmate hue jawab diya.

Bas itni si mulaqat thi… lekin pata nahi kyun, Aiza ko laga jaise uski zindagi ka ek naya chapter shuru ho gaya ho.

🌧 Struggle Ka Ehsaas

Ghar lautne par haqeeqat phir saamne thi. Bijli ka bill pending tha. Ammi pareshan thi. Abbu khamosh.

Aiza ne chupchaap apni diary nikali aur likha:

"Zindagi aasaan nahi hai… lekin main haar nahi maanungi. Main apne sapno ko sach kar ke dikhaungi."

Uski aankhon mein aansu the, lekin un aansuon ke peeche ek aag bhi thi — kuch ban kar dikhane ki.

Usse nahi pata tha ke aage ka safar kitna mushkil hoga. Usse nahi pata tha ke pyaar aur sapne kabhi-kabhi ek doosre ke imtihaan ban jaate hain.

Lekin ek baat woh jaanti thi —
Yeh uski zindagi hai. Yeh uska sapna hai. Aur woh ise poora karke rahegi.

Khidki ke bahar chaand chamak raha tha. Aiza ne aasman ki taraf dekha aur dheere se muskurayi.

“Kal se nayi shuruat hogi…”

Aur us raat, uski kahani ne apna pehla kadam utha liya.
