"Were you going to?"
"Yes, some time."
"Can't you tell me what the story is about?"
"It's about two people," said Bauer tamely.
"Is that all?" asked Helen after a pause on Bauer's part of several seconds.
"They start out with a ridiculous misunderstanding and it seems to be getting worse."
Helen looked amused and said, "Won't you go on?"
"The young woman thinks the young man is in love with her. He isn't at all—that is—not yet, but he is afraid he will be."
"Afraid? Is the girl so bad looking as that?"
"No, she is enough good looking to make up for both of them. And he is in some need of it."
