Kid 1: Hello, I’m X. What’s your name?
Kid 2: I’m Y. Nice to meet you.
Kid 1: Which grade are you in?
Kid 2: I’m in 4th grade. What about you?
Kid 1: Same! I’m in 4th grade too.
Kid 2: Do you like playing Pitthu?
Kid 1: What’s that?
Kid 2: You don’t know the game?! It’s so much fun! Let me explain.
Kid 1: Okay.
Kid 2: So, there are two teams. We have a pile of flat stones and a ball. One team has to hit the pile with the ball. If they manage to knock it over, they have to rebuild it before time runs out. Meanwhile, the other team tries to stop them by hitting their players with the ball. There are a few scoring rules too, but that’s the basic idea. Got it?
Kid 1: Yeah, I get it now.
Kid 2: Where do you live? How come no one plays Pitthu there?
Kid 1: I live in the city. We don’t have much space for outdoor games like that. We mostly play games on our mobiles.
Kid 2: Oh… What’s a mobile?
Kid 1: You’re joking, right?
Kid 2: No, I’m serious. What’s a mobile?
Kid 1: It’s a small device you can use to call people, send messages, play games, and do other things.
Kid 2: A mobile does all that? We use a landline phone to make calls. If we want to send messages, we write letters. And I play games on the computer—we only got one recently.
Kid 1: Yeah, I’m literally talking to you on a mobile right now! How are you talking to me?
Kid 2: I’m using a landline phone. By the way, which city do you live in? I’m in Delhi.
Kid 1: Wait, really? Me too! Which area? And how do you not know about mobile phones?!
