It was long ago.. i was in 3rd std or 4th..
I used to swim in my grandpa's well in his garden during holidays thats too for two-three hours continuously..his was the biggest well(in diameter) in his village and even also in taluk.. But not in district, because somebody grabbed that title in district level!!
coming back to the line..
For some reasons i was forced to stuck to public swimming pool in mysore city.At that time there were three public swimming pools in mysore city..due to security reasons i won't tell which pool i picked!! ;)
very crowded pool, no peace in swimming and chlorinated water...
but it was near to my house, and my mom preferred it. at first i used to swim in deep level(10-20feet)..It was ideally suitable for diving purpose.. Every time i tried to keep my eyes open when i'm completely submerged in water, i used to get irritation & kind of pain in my eyes..additionally, i was feeling a kind of loneliness and insecurity..
finally I picked the level of the pool to float, which ll minimize direct contact with water. it was 5-4 feet, normally most people prefer tat level to play games or just want to float/jump in water.. but i didn't like tat area..But i was a kind of addict to swim and didn't had any options. With that, i was just a child and was not having freedom to go somewhere outside mysore city for swimming!!
But the day came..
As per daily routine, in 4feets level area, i was going from one end to another end of pool with kind of swimming and floating.. in the middle, i stopped for a moment. was watching people in pool..then one tall guy came near. There was little gap between us and it was very little for other people to move between. He didn't move..
I thought he is waiting for somebody.
ignoring him, i turn my face on some other sides..
but..
his actions were becoming very suspicious!!
then i stared at him for few seconds..
mmm... no response..
At the same time i looked at water which was between us..
something was coming from the bottom of water..
.

.
it was YELLOW color
.
.
Me,myself didn't give second thought..
.
reached the end of pool and ran directly to bathroom which was in one side of the pool..
washed my head,body, every parts..
then ran near the place where i kept my cloths,towels,soap.then picked soap and bath two times once again..
then came outside..
mom was waiting.. i didn't tel wat happened..
after reaching home i bath two times once again..
but SOAP, Shampoos, Talcum powders failed to clean those moments from my head..
this is how that day become my last day in public swimming pool..
hoping you enjoyed!! :)
