THE UNCOUNTED MYSTERY. Content Warning.

Pirojpur village in 2007, the village was as beautiful as a picture. Surrounded by green trees, birdsong and captivating nature. The peaceful Padma River flowed past the village. There was a huge banyan tree on the bank of the river, where a shepherd would sit and play his flute. We friends would all play the shepherd's flute together. The river was very crowded during the month of Baishakh. People of all ages would come and gather on the bank of the river. Some would sing songs, some would ride boats. And we friends would enjoy playing cricket and football. The boys of our village had a cricket team called 'Padma Fighters'. We all played very well. We often played with the neighboring village. One afternoon, we went on a boat trip on the Padma River with some friends. Seeing the beauty of the river and singing songs filled our hearts with joy. Suddenly, we saw a little girl sitting alone on the bank of the river, crying. The girl told me that she had come to see the river alone, but had lost her way. We, as friends, took the girl with us and returned her to her mother after a lot of searching.
