One day, I didn't realise that I crossed 4ft deep area and when I was short of breath I tried to put my feet on surface and stand up for breath but surface was not there. I got panicked and tried my hands to wave people standing there shouting 'help' help'. I could see an American boy standing there in pool looking at me and doing nothing. I was dipping down and coming up. I believe it went for 8-10 seconds or more, I'm not sure. But it was really terrified feeling.
After sometime, I saw my friend caught my hand and pushed me towards area where water was not deeper. By the time I had water in my mouth and nose. I was hardly able to breath. A thought ran in my mind that my life is over. I saw other person standing in 4ft area pulled me and I got my life. It took me 15 minutes to calm down.
Later, my friend told me that seeing me in 8ft deep water, they were unable to realise that I was struggling to breath. The only reason, he came for my help was: he knew I can't swim and he was shocked what I was doing in 8ft deep water. Then, he realised that something is wrong with me and he came for help.
