Prithvi had finished packing all his thing but then he was missing something very important and very dear to him. It was his father's compass. Prithvi was very attached to that compass, it made him felt that his father was watching him and helping him in solving the riddles. So Prithvi went to his study and started to search for the compass, he had a big frown on his face,he searched for quite sometime.Sudenly that frown on the face disappeared and a small smile lit up, after all he had found his most valued possession. With this smile he left for Indus valley.
On reaching Indus valley his clue signaled him towards Rakhigarhi. It is a partially excavated city in Harappa ,his dad always used to mention him about it. This city was one of the first ancient city with urban sanitation system which at that time housed thousands of people this thing always used to amaze him at that time without any techno how they managed each n everything so brilliantly .then he moved on and saw that area where This ancient city had individual homes(or groups) of homes that obtained water from wells. From a room that appears to have been set aside for bathing, waste water was directed to covered drains, which lined the major streets. Houses opened only to inner courtyards and smaller lanes. The house-building in some villages in the region still resembles in some respects the house-building of the Harappans.prithvi was more than happy n very excited to see all these things which he herd from his father as a kid.
Now Prithvi started to begin his work as soon as he reached the place. He dug a certain area which was marked in his clue (map) but this wasnt gonna get finished in a day.he dug deep n deep for weeks now,but his determination never died or faded...but as they say "There is no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can circumvent or hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul."
After weeks of continuous digging he found many things such as various sculptures, seals, pottery, gold jewelry and anatomically detailed figurines in terracotta, bronze and steatite at excavation sites.he then started dusting (cleaning) each thing he got out of the excavation and observing and reading the inscriptions which have been written on them the golden plate,the lamp which amused him a lot reminded him of those childhood stories but then those are just pieces of fables....
As he reached his uncles farmhouse it Suddenly started to rain heavily with lightning. A group of girls who had come for research on the subject for their thesis on Harappa came in the same house as Prithvi was to save them from this heavy rain.
All the girls were shocked to see such a good looking, handsome man standing in front of them who had his body like a Greek God with his wet hair that too in a historical place like Indus. They all started to admire him but Prithvi seemed to be least interested in them. Then suddenly a girl from that group shouted at them saying "Tum logo ko bhi na kuch aur soojta nahi.. Jaha ladka dikha nahi ki tum sab fisal gaye too bad."
Then one of the girl told her "Kya Damini!!! Samne itna hot looking ladka kada rahega to fir hum sab fisle ge hi na??? Dekho kitna acha dikta hai?? Kisi Prince se kum nahi hai who… Agar tumhe ushe nahi dekhna hai to mat dekho par atleast heme to shanti se dekhne do..aaj kal itne handsome bande milte kahan hain"
Damini vexed up with there dally mod"Ok fine as u wish drool n drown!!" and others laughed on her remark.
