Forever and Ever

A high school senior holes himself up in an isolated cabin on a New Hampshire lake to mourn the tragic death of his girlfriend. So who is that swimmer he sees through the mist, out on the lake? What is the wailing he hears as night falls...the cry of the loon? Maybe Jannie had something else in mind when she promised they would be together forever.
