I'm not sure specifically as there could be many 'encounter' short stories. It might be about a chance meeting between two people, perhaps a fateful encounter that changes the lives of the characters involved.
Well, a close encounter short story could be written by someone like H.G. Wells who's known for his imaginative tales. Or perhaps it's the work of a contemporary author like Neil Gaiman. But we need more info to determine precisely who the author is.
The following were some recommended novels for short films related to healing encounters: " The Little Eunuch Who Hugged Me "," After Married to a Disabled Prince "," The Devil's Gift "," Losing to Love "," Decadent Beauty Became Famous Through Carelessness "," Receiving Commandment "," Sowing Red Water Caltrop and Lotus Root "," Wind and Cloud Entering the Painting Scroll "," Saving You "," Little Heart Completes the Story ", and " Relieve the Worry at the Grocery Store ". These novels were all finished and could bring a sense of healing to the readers.
The contrast between the normal and the strange. For instance, if a story is set in a modern city and suddenly a time - traveler from the past appears. This contrast of different eras and the implications of such an encounter, like how the time - traveler reacts to the modern world and vice versa, can make for a very interesting short story. It can also be interesting when the strange encounter challenges the protagonist's beliefs or world view. Maybe they were a skeptic about the supernatural but then have a face - to - face encounter with a ghost - like entity, which forces them to reevaluate what they thought was possible.
One day, I was waiting at a bus stop. A man wearing a very old - fashioned suit approached me. He asked me if I knew the way to a place that had been demolished decades ago.

One thing that makes a close encounter short story captivating is the element of surprise. When the characters unexpectedly meet something or someone strange, it immediately grabs the reader's attention. For example, in a story where a hiker has a close encounter with a mysterious creature in the forest. The sudden appearance of this unknown entity makes the story exciting.
