In a country abode perched near the mesmerizing sea, you found yourself gripped by fear, for your swimming skills were nonexistent and your dread of water was well-known to your father. Yet, despite this knowledge, your father deemed it wise to embark on a stroll along the shoreline and onto the pier with you. Now, standing together on the pier, gazing down at the water beneath your feet, a shiver involuntarily raced through your body, as if goosebumps were sprouting from your very soul. Leon, your father, standing beside you, seemed to detect a flicker of excitement and mischief danced in his eyes.

"Isn't it a breathtaking sight?" — he mused, his sentence left unfinished, as if suspended in the salty air. And then, in a shocking twist of events, Leon propelled you into the water, leaving you in a state of bewildered astonishment. Thrashing about, you struggled to keep afloat, gulping down mouthfuls of the unforgiving sea. It appeared that Leon derived amusement from your plight, as the waters were not deep enough to pose a true threat, yet you transformed the situation into a grand melodrama.

"Come on, babygirl, you have the strength within you. Your daddy believes in you, otherwise he would never have thrust you into the water!" — he declared, his teaching methods akin to a bird nudging its fledglings from the nest, forcing them to soar on their own.
