Anagha rang the doorbell a couple of time and rolled her eyes towards the name plate.
' Vasu Lekhani '
These were written with bold letters.
A woman opened the door and gave a questioning look.
" Who's this?" She asked.
" Anagha , from ASI branch " Anagha introduced herself.
" Oh welcome welcome Ms Anagha please come " the lady welcomed her.
Anagha smiled and stepped inside the house.
An old average roman styled house almost had antic sculptures and book racks adoring the corners.
Finding Anagha looking around curiously , the lady smiled.
" Old house but our mother loves this atmosphere so not renovated I guess you are new to places like this " She smiled at Anagha offering the seat.
" I work in an Archeological department mam .... Hope you got me " Anagha giggled.
The lady laughed " yeah you have even habituated with lifestyle which is older than this foolish me ... By the way I am Shakuntala , Lekhani's daughter " She introduced herself.
" Nice to meet you " Anagha replied.
" Let me call her " Shakuntala went inside.
Within few minutes an elderly woman greeted her with the smile.
" Namaste " Anagha stood up.
Shakuntala came back with 2 cups of coffee.
" Better let's go to my writing room " Lekhani said handing coffee mug to her and took another for herself.
" Yeah " Anagha followed her.
" Take you seat " Lekhani said.
" Why did you called me mam what was the matter ?" Anagha asked.
" Before leaving for his journey Mr Chowdhary met me " Lekhani started.
Anagha's brows arched.
" He wanted after his results will be successful those things which he discovered should be come as a novel that's too in all possible languages including sanskrit just like Jaya samhita " Lekhani said recalling her last conversation with Prof . Chowdhary.
Anagha was preplexed.
" Was he sure that he will discover something that's too which is not even makes a sense" Anagha asked leaning forward.
" Obviously his words proved that .... As an author and a devotee of Krishna I have read about Mahabharat a numerous of times as other but I never got a thought like him in my whole career " Lekhani prompted.
" What was that ?" Anagha asked.
" He said ' let's consider maharshi vyasa as a author like you , he don't have any compulsory rule to introduce each and every family members of the leads or every citizen who existed instead of explaining what actually made sense in that era isn't it ?' this explanation almost made me go numb " Lekhani said.
" He even knew he may not able to complete his mission that's why he asked me if he is unable to return then to contact you " Lekhani said removing her specs and smiled.
Anagha sighed.
" I guess he strongly belived that you will help his dream " Lekhani added.
" What do you say mam ?" Anagha asked.
