Strange but true!


The days got relaxing indicating the beginning of the holidays. Since long time, Sonya and her friends planned to have a great picnic. They planned to take a bus to reach the destination on time. Finally after couple of hours they reached the picnic spot that was far away from the hustle and bustle of city area, it was so peaceful, so serene. But that wasn’t the place they had planned to go! Rahul who knew about the place had fallen asleep and they reached the wrong place. Anyways it was a great place for an outing with friends.
Every one enjoyed the food and chatted for sometimes out there, after sometimes Riya and Sonya went to fetch some water. Luckily they found a small pond; they drank some water and returned back. But, Alas! They were lost into a dense forest.  At the middle of the forest was a hut. They went into the hut and found nothing but to small carpets. Unexpectedly a voice from behind said ‘may I help you’.  To their surprise it was the carpet speaking. The speaking carpet lay in front of them asking to fulfill their demand. It asked for water. Without being wise, Sonya dropped water in it. It started flying in air with energy and enthusiasm and asked them to step up.
They reached to the place about minutes. As they reached to the place, everyone was so worried and when her friend said the entire story, no one believed them.
