They Called Me A Killer But I Am A Ghost

Summary

My father had a custom pool built in our backyard, supposedly to help me conquer my fear of the water.

But I was terrified of even dipping my toes in, so he never pushed it, letting me stay on the deck with a super-soaker while he swam laps.

Then my little brother, Leo, was born, and he became the sun this entire household orbited around.

The day everything changed, Leo was standing by the edge, his feet slipping on the wet tile. I instinctively reached out to grab him, but I was small and clumsy, and we both tumbled into the deep end.
