Ex-football star Mike Gambril meets Terry McKay on a flight to Sydney, which is forced to land on a small atoll. They become romantic on board a ship sent to take them to a larger island. They agree to meet in New York three months later to see if the attraction is real. One shows up but the other doesn't. However, a chance meeting brings them together again.

Once upon a time the main character was afraid very much. Since then, he clearly does not speak a few letters, making him look like a baby babbling. He did everything to get rid of his illness, but to no avail. The doctor advised him such a therapy: go there where he was startled many years ago and try to get afraid there again. But what if he is an adult and is not afraid of anything children offer to him?
