Karsaaz Road Ka Qatil Saya Karachi Ki Sab Se Khaufnaak Kahani

Mera naam Areeba hai. Main Karachi ki rehne wali hoon, aur ye kahani meri zindagi ki sab se khaufnaak kahani hai jo main kabhi nahi bhool sakti. Sab kuch us raat shuru hua jab main apni best friend Mehak ke ghar se wapas aa rahi thi. us time raat ke 12 baj rahe the. Karachi ki roads waise bhi raat ko khaali si lagti hain, lekin Karsaaz Road ka kuch aur hi maamla tha. Mere abu hamesha kehte the ke "raat ke waqt Karsaaz Road se mat guzra karo... wahan ek saya hai jo insaanon ke liye khatra hai." Mujhe kabhi yakeen nahi aya... tab tak jab tak maine khud us saya ko nahi dekha. Us din Mehak ke ghar ek birthday party thi. Mujhe late ho gaya aur main ne socha ke Uber manga leti hoon.jaise hi uber aaye mein mehak ke ghar se nikal gaye. Jab main Karsaaz Road par pohanchi, to driver ne bina kuch bole gaari dheemi kar di. Main ne pucha, “Bhai kya hua?” Us ne sirf itna kaha, “Aap dua parh lo.” Us waqt meri ragon mein thand si daud gayi. Raat andheri thi, lekin achanak meri nazar ek safed libaas mein larki par padi. Woh road ke beech mein khadi thi. Aankhon mein gusse aur dard ka milajula izhar tha. Main ne driver se kaha, “Dekha aap ne? Woh kon thi?” Driver ne kaha, “Main kuch nahi dekh raha… aap ne agar dekha hai to sirf chup rehna… aur kuch mat kehna.” Tab mujhe samajh aya ke kuch to ghalat hai. Jaise hi hum us larki ke paas se guzray, meri gardan apne aap seedhi ho gayi… meri awaaz band ho gayi… aur main uski aankhon mein kuch dekh rahi thi... maut. Achanak se car ka AC full ho gaya. Jitna band karte, utna ziada tez hota. Phir ek aurat ki cheekh ne car ko hila diya. Driver ne zor se brakes lagaye… aur car ek dum band ho gayi. Main ne dekha ke woh safed libaas wali larki car ke bonnet pe khadi thi. Uski aankhen pure surkh theen… aur woh hum dono ko ghur rahi thi. “Kyun aaye ho meri zameen par?” uski awaaz mere kaanon mein gunj rahi thi, bina honton ke hilne ke. Driver ne Quran ki ayatain parhni shuru ki. Woh larki cheekhti gayi, uska jism jalta gaya, lekin woh gayab nahi ho rahi thi… woh humein dikh rahi thi, mehsoos ho rahi thi… lekin insaan nahi thi. Phir ek dum se woh hawa mein uth gayi… aur hawa ka rukh badal gaya. Poore road par jaisay andhera cha gaya ho. Us waqt maine mehsoos kiya ke mere haath ka mobile jal raha hai… screen pe likha tha: “Tum wapis aaogi. Tum ab mere ho.” Driver ne gaari dubara chalu ki aur bina kuch kahe mujhe ghar chhor diya. Jab main ne peeche murh ke dekha, car gayab thi… poora road khaali tha. Us waqt se main har raat wohi sapna dekhti hoon… Karsaaz Road ka saya mujhe bula raha hota hai. Aaj bhi jab koi us road se guzarta hai raat ke waqt, unka AC apne aap full ho jata hai... aur ek safed larki unka peecha karti hai. Mujhe lagta hai... main wapis jaa rahi hoon. Shayad us saye ke paas. Shayad... Bloodtale ka ek aur qissa banne ke liye. Agar tumne ye kahani raat mein pari hai... to apne aas paas dekho... kahin woh larki tumhe bhi na dekh rahi ho...
