Question

[04]
I crossed to the oblivion, and the curtain of life fell. The next I remember I was lying on my stomach
beside the pool, vomiting. The chap that threw me in was saying, "But I was only fooling." Someone
said, "The kid nearly died Be all right now. Let's carry him to the locker room." Several hours later,
walked home. I was weak and trembling. I shook and cried when I lay on my bed. I couldn't eat that
night. For days, a haunting fear was in my heart. The slightest exertion upset me, making me wobbly
in the knees and sick to my stomach. I never went back to the pool. I feared water. I avoided whenever
