The story

Hal Hefner is a fifteen-year-old student of Plainsboro, New Jersey with a pronounced stutter.

Though Hal initially declines, he finds himself besotted with Ginny and agrees to be her partner.

Hal kisses her hopefully, and they make out, but she subsequently falls out of contact with him.
