An Encounter with the Unknown

A Companion in Moments of Leisure: Nature and Unknown Paths
Some things which we can never forget suddenly come in front of us at any moment and make us feel their presence. Such is the story
 I read a story which I read in an Urdu magazine. Let me present it to you today. These are the days when our lives were not entangled in the web of computers and mobile phones. Whenever I got a little time off from work, I would take my car and set out alone, without any destination, just to lose myself in the captivating sights of nature. Free from all kinds of restrictions, I would wander alone on those roads where towering mountains and deep ravines could make your soul tremble. Because even today if I am alone at night and remember this story. I lose my sleep.

A Coincidence and a New Friendship
On one such journey, while ascending a hilly road, I was lost in my own thoughts. Just then, a gleaming sports car passed by me, carrying a young couple. Seeing their fast speed, I gave them a way to overtake. Smiling and waving their hands, they thanked me and disappeared from sight in a moment. A little later, I reached a restaurant where I had been once or twice before. The same sports car was parked in the parking lot! I was quite happy to know that they were also out for a drive and were siblings.
Open Conversations and an Unknown Fear
In no time, we became good friends. We ate together and talked a lot. Now I had started talking to them openly. It was then that the young man asked me to come to their house, which was not far from there. I immediately said yes. But looking at both of them, a strange fear was creeping into my mind. Their faces were completely expressionless, and their eyes were lifeless, talking without blinking. Seeing his sad eyes, my nervousness was increasing but his behavior was very friendly. There was a sense of belonging
An Old Mansion and a Strange Atmosphere
Soon we reached an old house. As soon as the door opened, a strange stench shook my senses. Although I was not a coward, by nature I am always ready to face any kind of situation. In a short while there was a strange silence in the hall. I was thinking what to talk to them about but in a short while I got busy talking to them. Meanwhile, that young man started playing a strange kind of loud music and I got lost in its speed. I did not even realize how time passed. Now it was my turn to bid them farewell.
A Shocking Revelation
Today, I have reached my home. I have the telephone directory in my hand, and I am looking for their number. After a while, I found the number, but the reply from the other side was that the number was no longer working. Tired and defeated, I tried to get their address from the car number. And that's where my head started spinning. It turned out that several years ago, a car with the same number had fallen into a deep ravine and crashed. A couple who were siblings and were in the car had died in the accident.
This story will forever remain etched in my heart and mind like a question. Who was that young couple? What was the mystery of that old house? And what happened to me that evening? It is an unsolved mystery that still troubles me today.
