    RUNNING AWAY FROM REALITY II

    A pair of lovers...
    They were travelling by bus that was taking them up through verdant area to a hilly resort.

    At some spot surrounded by steep huge rocks , they both decided to alight from the bus. The bus halted as per their request and they had exited.

    Uninhabited wilderness, deer and peacocks dancing to the tune of quills were moving hither & thither.
    But the lovers mind is not on them.

    A little away from the spot they alighted, hands entwined they began climbing up the rocky terrain.
    As they reached a suitable pinnacle they looked deep down, satisfied and felt they legs tripped slightly on a small pebble and
    their bodies tad trembled.

    When they shut their eyes holding each other's hand in preparation to jump to bottom of the hill, they heard the gibber of couple of monkeys and few birds making eerie cries and flying erratically in a cross-cross.

    Lovers now heard the rumbling of a huge boulder that was impacting on lower rock-floor and got bounced up in a trajectory and eventually reached and collided with the moving bus from which the pair alighted a while ago.
    They looked down at the tumbling of bus that rolled,
    topsy turvied, somersaulted
    and fell into otherside a deep valley.
    No survivors.
    Birds & monkeys on canopy of green tall trees stayed and stood in silence!
    Pair of young lovers looked at each other through hot-tears.

    "We shouldn't got off the bus".
    The girl said.

    Why did she say that?
    Could you make a guess?
    Challenging question.

    S P O I L E R so that others happen to read this post too enjoy later finding WHEATHER their answer matches the right one.

    They claimed the rocky terrain to commit suicide together and now they found the bus they were traveling was hit by a huge boulder. Now, they should understand God's will is for them to live and hence change their mind and go home.
