Finally, after a long wait, he saw that white car approaching him. She breathed a sigh of relief when the wait was over and approached the approaching car. This was the car she was eagerly waiting for. At that hour of the night, he had been standing on this deserted road for almost half an hour and his booked car was not coming. As soon as she sat in the car, she took out her mobile from her bag and started running her fingers on its glowing screen. Maybe she was sending a message to someone. He turned off the mobile phone and kept it in his lap and turned his eyes towards the outside from the car window.

The scene outside was quite calm. The street was dimly lit by street lights and there was nothing to see but a beautiful gift shop. The gift shop was beautifully designed and the items in it could impress any visitor. The gift shop had glass doors that gave a clear view of the interior and the gifts displayed in the twinkling lights inside looked quite nice. The road was quite quiet and surprisingly, apart from this gift shop, there was no other shop on the road and not a single person could be seen passing by.

The vehicle was constantly moving along the road at its average speed. He was quite surprised to see that there was a gift shop in the same style just ahead. That gift shop was also similar. The second surprise hit him when he saw the same gift shop for the third time and this time he thought not only about the gift shop but also about the road... This road was exactly the same as the road she had passed through twice. She realized very well that she was passing through the same road again and again, not a second or third road.

It was too late and now she was visiting the gift shop for the eighth time. Confused and scared, he asked the car driver which place it was. On not getting an answer, she stretched her neck and started repeating the same question again. No sooner had he finished speaking than he got a shock of surprise... He could hardly believe what he saw. The car was passing on the road at that time. The gift shop came for the tenth time... but... But there was no one in the driving seat.

Suddenly, the car stopped in front of the gift shop. She got out of the car and looked around in confusion. The gift shop was the same, the road was the same, but everything was silent. There was no one in the car and there was no one in the gift shop. She was all alone. She decided to enter the gift shop to look for someone but as soon as she opened the glass door, everything changed.

The gift shop had vanished, and she was now standing on a deserted road. The car, the gift shop, the driver, all of them were gone. She looked around, trying to figure out where she was and how she got there. Suddenly, she heard a faint sound, like the sound of someone singing. She followed the sound and found herself in the middle of a dense forest. She realized that she had been transported to a different world, a world where nothing was as it seemed.

As she wandered through the forest, she realized that the singing was coming from a young girl who was perched on a tree branch. The girl had a beautiful voice, and as she sang, the forest came alive with the sound of animals and birds. She approached the girl and listened to her sing. The girl told her that she was the Singing Forest Girl, and that she had been sent to guide her through this world.

Together, they journeyed through the forest, encountering strange creatures and magical beings. The Singing Forest Girl taught her about the resilience of nature and the importance of staying strong in.
