Sirsi had been kidnapped and taken to Srilanka, she was treated and taken care well but she was unaware of who kidnapped her. People with her seemed highly intellectual and treated her with respect, except that they went mute If she asked anything about the bastard who kidnapped her. She requested that a message be sent to her worrying family about her wellbeing.
The request is yet to be approved.

It was a mansion overlooking the waves built iron strong, mansion was furnished in rose and teak wood, with three luxurious jacuzzi inside, a modular and spectacular kitchen which was stocked for weeks. Glasses were unbreakable, the windows had completely sealed with iron meshes. Her room was built sound proof. She wasn't allowed in verandah, and the wall around the mansion was built like fort but in clear blue and white tiles. There was no way out. Maids brought her food on time, they weren't allowed to speak to her. Any attempts were taken seriously, so no one dared to attempt it. She wasn't questioned or tortured or even been asked about the treasure. The unresponsiveness had killed her every second.
"Okay.. what message do you want to send?" asked a woman, very tall with athletic body. Her features were so sharp and mean! She isn't the easy one thought Sirsi.
Hello?? What's the message?? She asked again.
I need time, she muttered.
Ha!!! You can speak for a minute and that will be it!! She snapped and closed the door.
Sirsi need to act wisely, but how can you cipher when she doesn't even know the location of her residence!! Holy crap she thought.

"Measha... Am alright please don't worry I will come back.. as grandfather proommm"

That's it!!! You can't talk forever..
It wasn't even a minute!! Sirsi fought back.
Oh you really thought I was going to give you a minute?? Sad!! The women mocked at Sirsi.
Sirsi said what she needed to say.

The women handed over the phone. Here... techies... send this video to Petros he is the geek right??
                            ___&&&_____

Who is Measha?? Asked Bobby.
It's pappa said Petros.. we had converted to Christianity after we moved to India. Kids needed good education, I couldn't afford it, earlier people were given cash and education if one converts to Christianity I couldn't see any other options confessed John.
Petros laughed, good side to this is,  I chose my  name.. it's from a Greek mythology!!
Ya that's exactly what is important right now isn't?? Nalan said furiously. He continued...
Play that video again!! Why did she say as grandfather said??  They need to think Clearly.
What does she mean?

The next day, Petros did not concentrate on the job, he played that video  continuously but he couldn't understand what she meant.
John offered prayers as usual and cried before the shiva idol in his house, "please give my daughter back!!!!" Every day he would sit and pray, talk to himself.. he was losing his mind.
Damayanti came to check on him, she was really worried about John's health. She cooked food and waited for Petros and Nalan to come back.
Bobby and Damayanti talked about Sirsi and the treasure.. it caught you as well I suppose?? Asked Petros suddenly.
No no I was just....
Chill bro I was just kidding!!
Nalan hasn't spoken to Damayanti, her efforts had always brought up another fight.
Nalan blamed her for Sirsi's disappearance and fought with her every time they discussed about the wedding. John had consoled Nalan to stay silent as Damayanti sobbed over Petro's shoulder. 
She took her bag and started to walk away.. "Remember Nalan you have promised me to marry at any instance.." just don't forget that! She walked down on the stairs and continued fighting.

The promise.... John uttered.. he was shivering as he understood what Sirsi said. The promise... That's what she was going to say...
Papaaaa.. what is it??
She is brilliant!!!! Said John.
"Petros go to our temple in Srilanka"!!. Papaa .. I don't understand.
Nalan understory it too.. yes! The promise.
Sirsi's family had a tradition,they would set sail on any land only after they offer puja in their temple. Maheshwaran, their grandfather had taken promise from Sirsi and Nalan, that they do anything only after they offer puja in Shiva temple.
Nalan took a deep breath, they were only worried about her wellbeing, now that she is safe and her Message was clear, there was nothing to fear.
Meanwhile, Bobby had made some great progress with the video they received. He came inside the house in joy, we know her location!! Nalan jumped out of the sofa and reached bobby's arm.. are you sure?? More than ever!!
