Anemones
He didn't want them to know that one day his older brother pushed him overboard as a joke right in the middle of the leg.
He didn’t come to the surface for a long time, so his brother jumped after him, but couldn’t find him.
The whole incident from the shore was watched by a nanny, who immediately rushed to help.
She pulled him out, unconscious. She fought for his life for a few minutes. Eventually, he regained consciousness, but he never went out on a boat again.
For many years he couldn’t forgive his brother.
As an adult, he reluctantly swam in lakes; he tried to avoid open water bodies where the bottom cannot be seen.
